00:00:51.014 --> 00:00:53.176
Thank you so much for listening.
00:00:53.176 --> 00:01:01.335
My podcasts come out every Monday morning.
00:01:01.335 --> 00:01:02.079
And now let's get going.
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:09.721
Hello friend, Chaplain Terry Warner here.
00:01:09.721 --> 00:01:10.843
This podcast will be season 4, episode 19.
00:01:10.843 --> 00:01:17.254
It will air on May 6, 2024, and the title of it is Deception, your foundation scripture.
00:01:17.313 --> 00:01:20.343
We will start with Matthew 24, 3 and 4.
00:01:20.343 --> 00:01:23.168
I apologize for the speech.
00:01:23.168 --> 00:01:28.534
I had dental surgery and so I may be a little tough on the accent.
00:01:28.534 --> 00:01:30.424
Please forgive me.
00:01:30.424 --> 00:01:35.290
Matthew 24, verses 3 and 4.
00:01:35.290 --> 00:01:44.152
Tell us when shall these things be and what shall be the sign of your coming and the end of the world?
00:01:44.152 --> 00:01:51.109
And Jesus answered and said unto them Take heed that no man deceives you.
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:54.188
We're going to talk about deception today.
00:01:54.188 --> 00:02:04.388
Have you ever been to a magic show where the magician sawed some pretty lady in half, even though she was in two places and smiling?
00:02:04.388 --> 00:02:08.383
You knew that no one could be sawed in two and survive.
00:02:08.383 --> 00:02:11.950
Your eyes deceived you into believing a magic trick.
00:02:11.950 --> 00:02:13.794
You were deceived.
00:02:13.794 --> 00:02:17.062
2 Peter, 3 and 4.
00:02:17.062 --> 00:02:18.846
3.
00:02:18.846 --> 00:02:29.824
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days, scoffers walking after their own lusts or desires, saying when is the promise of his coming?
00:02:29.824 --> 00:02:53.522
You talk to anyone nowadays about Christ returning and you get sort of a ho-hum, shrudge-of-the-shoulders attitude and people mainly get replies well, he'll come back when he's good and ready and I'm not going to worry about it.
00:02:53.522 --> 00:02:58.373
And you use that as an excuse to ignore his coming.
00:03:00.841 --> 00:03:03.126
Does anyone remember the flood of Noah?
00:03:03.126 --> 00:03:04.649
Of course not.
00:03:04.649 --> 00:03:06.532
We were too young for that.
00:03:06.532 --> 00:03:13.372
While we can't remember that, we have a biblical account written down Genesis 6 through 10.
00:03:13.372 --> 00:03:17.430
It took Noah around 75 years to build the ark.
00:03:17.430 --> 00:03:23.847
He was over 600 years old when the flood started and they made fun of him.
00:03:23.847 --> 00:03:26.667
They scoffed at him.
00:03:26.667 --> 00:03:29.037
There he is building an ark.
00:03:29.037 --> 00:03:31.177
It's never rained before on the earth.
00:03:31.177 --> 00:03:37.456
The water came up out of the earth and watered the stuff, watered the plants and stuff.
00:03:37.456 --> 00:03:41.055
There had been no rain and now he's building a boat.
00:03:41.055 --> 00:03:51.098
They didn't know what a boat was and so they made fun of him until it started to rain and you can imagine all of the people.
00:03:51.098 --> 00:04:08.304
Only eight people were saved, the rest beating on the ark trying to get in, but God had sealed the ark and called an end to it and decided to flood the world due to evil and actions that were just unreal.
00:04:10.510 --> 00:04:13.661
We have more concrete evidence if we move into the New Testament.
00:04:13.661 --> 00:04:20.343
We can now prove that Jesus Christ walked the earth and did miracles, performed miracles.
00:04:20.343 --> 00:04:25.281
We even have modern day miracles of people being healed and medically certified.
00:04:25.281 --> 00:04:31.454
The world is full of deception, but the Bible is full of truth.
00:04:31.454 --> 00:04:32.737
Is full of deception, but the Bible is full of truth.
00:04:32.737 --> 00:04:40.985
It is a known fact that Jesus died, went to hell and God, the Father, raised him from the dead, raised spotless and victorious.
00:04:40.985 --> 00:04:53.685
We have more evidence about Jesus Christ on this earth than we do about Plato and Socrates and Julius Caesar, and Julius Caesar Numbers 23, 14.
00:04:53.685 --> 00:04:59.447
God is not a man that he should lie, neither the son of man that he should repent.
00:04:59.447 --> 00:05:06.894
Has he said and he shall not do it, or has he spoken and shall not make it good.
00:05:06.894 --> 00:05:08.939
So let's talk about ways we're deceived.
00:05:08.939 --> 00:05:17.163
The first way that I think we're deceived that really comes about is thinking everything's okay when it's not.
00:05:17.163 --> 00:05:24.454
This world's in a world of hurt and our country's in a world of hurt and we're going down paths we shouldn't be going down.
00:05:26.278 --> 00:05:28.125
Let's bring up the subject of abortion.
00:05:28.125 --> 00:05:30.610
It's just wrong.
00:05:30.610 --> 00:05:41.702
People should have a right to live, to grow and make decisions and to live a fulfilled life and to decide what they want to do and decide where they want to go.
00:05:41.702 --> 00:05:47.401
We should not be making that decision for those who cannot make the decision on their own.
00:05:47.401 --> 00:05:54.197
Now, if you had an abortion, I understand, but God will forgive you and you were wrong.
00:05:54.197 --> 00:05:56.661
You just didn't quite understand what to do.
00:05:56.661 --> 00:05:58.023
You were deceived.
00:05:58.023 --> 00:05:59.805
God will forgive you.
00:05:59.805 --> 00:06:04.154
Ask for his forgiveness for you today.
00:06:04.154 --> 00:06:06.300
But let's look at what happens when you get abortion.
00:06:10.579 --> 00:06:12.750
Let's look at some of the costs of abortion.
00:06:12.750 --> 00:06:22.341
We have destroyed a complete tax base in this country that could be supporting our taxes and government and everything else.
00:06:22.341 --> 00:06:33.392
By getting rid of and following through on abortions, we have denied God of children that he created and formed in the womb, of children that he created and formed in the womb.
00:06:33.392 --> 00:06:37.718
I really didn't mean to make this about abortion today, so I'll shift subjects.
00:06:37.718 --> 00:06:38.841
Let's get on.
00:06:38.901 --> 00:06:40.002
Else how we've been deceived.
00:06:40.002 --> 00:06:41.904
We've been deceived by the media.
00:06:41.904 --> 00:06:50.156
The media by our judicial branch, our executive branch, by our legislative branch of government.
00:06:50.156 --> 00:06:55.800
All the branches Used to be politicians ran to make this country better.
00:06:55.800 --> 00:07:03.500
Now it seems they run to make this country profitable so they can make a career out of being there a few months.
00:07:03.500 --> 00:07:08.100
Politicians should never have a career of being politicians.
00:07:08.100 --> 00:07:17.153
Politicians should go and serve the country out of duty and honor and courage and to foresee this country.
00:07:18.216 --> 00:07:19.218
Stop and think about it.
00:07:19.218 --> 00:07:27.038
The United States and Israel are basically the only two countries throughout history that have supported Israel.
00:07:27.038 --> 00:07:29.610
Why is it important to support Israel?
00:07:29.610 --> 00:07:32.600
Well, for one reason they're God's chosen people.
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:39.721
The other reason in the Psalms it says he who blesses Israel has peace and prosperity.
00:07:39.721 --> 00:07:43.740
So, bless the people of Israel, bless Israel.
00:07:43.740 --> 00:07:45.454
That's God's land.
00:07:45.454 --> 00:07:47.877
God kept that land for himself.
00:07:47.877 --> 00:07:53.971
Out of creating the whole world, he took a space about the size a little bit larger than New Jersey.
00:07:53.971 --> 00:07:57.358
They don't even make up two percent of the population.
00:07:57.358 --> 00:07:59.483
The Jews Point two percent.
00:07:59.483 --> 00:08:01.153
They don't even make that up.
00:08:01.153 --> 00:08:02.918
At most.
00:08:02.918 --> 00:08:04.942
Maybe I misspoke, maybe two percent.
00:08:05.264 --> 00:08:18.516
Maybe they're not a threat to anyone, and this pushing them from the sea or pushing them into the sea, that's just another way of saying they want to annihilate them.
00:08:18.516 --> 00:08:20.891
You're annihilating a whole race of people.
00:08:20.891 --> 00:08:28.855
They have been trying this for years, for years, thousands of years, and they have yet to succeed.
00:08:28.855 --> 00:08:30.300
And they won't succeed this time.
00:08:30.300 --> 00:08:36.269
And they have yet to succeed and they won't succeed this time.
00:08:36.269 --> 00:08:38.409
No-transcript.
00:08:39.149 --> 00:08:40.113
God doesn't lie.
00:08:40.113 --> 00:08:44.475
A building is only as strong as its weakest link, or brick.
00:08:44.475 --> 00:08:48.816
In other words, the weakest brick is going to make the building crumble.
00:08:48.816 --> 00:09:01.975
The galaxies, universes, stars, moons, planets were put there by God when he created everything, and they are eternal as long as God says they are.
00:09:01.975 --> 00:09:08.168
Excuse me, we're on the earth for about a hundred years yet.
00:09:08.168 --> 00:09:12.966
Our souls are eternal and we will go to their designated places of hell or heaven.
00:09:12.966 --> 00:09:16.557
The choice is yours to make while you are still alive.
00:09:16.557 --> 00:09:21.390
You can't make that choice after you're dead, after you pass away.
00:09:21.390 --> 00:09:22.673
It's too late to decide.
00:09:22.673 --> 00:09:30.173
So ignore the deception, the unbelieving conventional wisdom, the misinformation.
00:09:31.054 --> 00:09:40.628
Global warming, global cooling, global, this global, that climate change, this climate change that, folks, that's been going on ever since the world was created.
00:09:40.628 --> 00:09:42.393
God created this world.
00:09:42.393 --> 00:09:44.177
Read the back of the book.
00:09:44.177 --> 00:09:45.506
We win.
00:09:45.506 --> 00:09:48.535
And the earth is not destroyed by climate.
00:09:48.535 --> 00:09:51.333
The earth is not destroyed by earthquakes.
00:09:51.333 --> 00:10:00.638
The earth is not destroyed by some kind of man-made or extracurricular activity Sorry about that.
00:10:00.638 --> 00:10:03.714
Some other external activity?
00:10:03.714 --> 00:10:04.919
Sorry about that, some other external activity?
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:06.225
It creates by the Lord.
00:10:06.726 --> 00:10:14.807
The world ends and comes to a close of the age by the Lord returning for his saints, and then you enter the tribulation period.
00:10:14.807 --> 00:10:16.010
That's Bible.
00:10:16.010 --> 00:10:25.971
After the tribulation period, God comes back one more time and sets everything aright and we go into a new Jerusalem, a new heaven and a new earth.
00:10:25.971 --> 00:10:34.514
But I digress the world is not going to be destroyed by man, nor is the man going to destroy the earth.
00:10:34.514 --> 00:10:40.796
They may come close and they may try, but God is still in control.
00:10:40.796 --> 00:10:47.639
The path or the way is putting your faith and trust in Jesus Christ.
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:54.990
So ignore the deception, the unbelieving conventional wisdom, the misinformation and realization.
00:10:54.990 --> 00:11:10.370
When it comes to eternity, there is only one path that you can take Romans 10, 9 and 10, that if you shall confess with your mouth that the Lord Jesus and shall believe in your heart that God is raised from the dead, you shall be saved.
00:11:10.370 --> 00:11:17.035
For with the heart, man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
00:11:17.035 --> 00:11:23.635
Now you can start living and quit living in deception.
00:11:23.635 --> 00:11:28.711
You have a blessed day In Jesus' name.
00:11:32.126 --> 00:11:33.712
This has been Chaplain Terry Warner.
00:11:33.712 --> 00:11:36.312
My podcasts come out every Monday morning.
00:11:36.312 --> 00:11:43.971
When you go to my website, thechaplainscornernet, there will be a drop-down menu for my website.
00:11:43.971 --> 00:11:50.758
If you would like to sign up for my newsletter, be assured that your information will never be sold or given out.
00:11:50.758 --> 00:12:06.813
I have started a group on LinkedIn called the Chaplain's Corner because my podcasts and articles are being used for Bible lessons and sermon notes for home and small church groups in Pakistan and Africa and other places around the world.
00:12:06.813 --> 00:12:16.715
I am also making plans to make the Chaplain's Corner a not-for-profit so people can donate money for Bibles to be distributed in Pakistan.
00:12:16.715 --> 00:12:25.455
This venture is ripe for fraud and scams, but I will be supplying the Bibles through a legitimate Christian bookstore in Pakistan.
00:12:25.455 --> 00:12:30.797
Also, please note that all monies donated will be used strictly for this ministry.
00:12:30.797 --> 00:12:34.053
Thank you so much for listening to my podcast.
00:12:34.053 --> 00:12:36.371
The Lord bless you and keep you.
00:12:36.371 --> 00:12:40.134
The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious unto you.
00:12:40.134 --> 00:12:48.727
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace In Jesus' name, amen, thank you.
