God knows your name, your story, and the secrets you’ve never said out loud and He still calls you His child. That’s where Chaplain Terry Warner starts, before moving into a Scripture-rich “Gift Speech” built to steady your heart and sharpen your daily walk with Jesus. We also share a few updates to The Chaplain’s Corner, including plans for a newsletter and ways we hope to help others, especially the unborn and the poor.

From Romans 5:8–9, we talk about the love of God proved at the cross and the confidence that we’ve been saved from wrath. Then we turn to 1 Thessalonians 5 and the end times: the Lord’s return comes suddenly, but we refuse date-setting. Instead, we focus on what readiness actually looks like, staying awake, staying sober, encouraging one another, and choosing peace. If you’ve been following rapture talk or biblical prophecy and feel anxious, this is a grounded reminder that watchfulness should produce steady faith, not panic.

The second half goes deeper into why Jesus had to come at all. God is spirit, yet redemption required a Redeemer who is fully God and fully man, sinless, present on earth, and able to reconcile us through the Word made flesh. With Philippians 2 and 2 Corinthians 5, we connect Christ’s humility to your identity as a new creation and your calling to live as an ambassador of reconciliation.

00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:25.280
Hello, friend.

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:27.199
Chaplain Terry Warner here.

00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:29.199
Hope you're having a good day.

00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:33.920
I think you're going to like a few changes we're making to the chaplain's corner.

00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:39.759
Well, first of all, we're going to get an intern announcer, an announcer.

00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:41.840
My stepdaughter.

00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:46.479
She's an experienced radio announcer.

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:51.119
And my stepson will do the background music.

00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:56.320
And I will concentrate on the message and the letters and correspondence.

00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:02.880
We're changing the promotion of the podcast, thechaplainscorner.net.

00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:04.879
We're leaving that the same.

00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:11.040
But we want encouragers to listener, listeners, to sign up for our mailing list.

00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:24.799
Nothing to buy, nothing to sell, but we do have soon items you can purchase, and all proceeds will be to helping others, especially the unborn and the poor.

00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:33.200
We'll take all proceeds and pay that or use that to support the unborn child.

00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:45.040
I'm writing a book called Something to Think About, Volume 1, and it is a compilation of my articles that I have written over the past three years.

00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:52.719
There'll be a volume two, plus the Lord has given me several uh ideas for other books as well.

00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:54.879
So start looking for those.

00:01:55.120 --> 00:02:00.799
I'll start sending out a newsletter that will have all these opportunities and stuff on.

00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.799
If you can afford to give and help us out, great.

00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.040
But if you can't, great.

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.639
We want you to write us, tell us your prayer needs.

00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:12.639
We'll pray for you daily.

00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:15.520
We'll pray for you several times a day.

00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:22.319
And we're going to build a little group, not anything big, not anything expansive, but a little group.

00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:27.199
And we're going to pray for the unborn and get them money and funds.

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:35.759
The first several podcasts will be showing you second coming links and podcast sites.

00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:48.240
We will do our best to show you and explain to you high quality and truthful links that will encourage you and make you realize that we are so very, very close back to the rapture.

00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:51.199
So please sign up for our newsletter.

00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:55.280
And by the way, we are not setting dates for anything.

00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:56.800
The rapture's close.

00:02:56.879 --> 00:02:59.039
It's going to happen about any time.

00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:01.520
But it'll happen when it happens.

00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:03.039
And we'll be ready.

00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:05.039
And we'll enjoy that.

00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:07.360
We get to spend eternity in heaven.

00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:09.360
Isn't that going to be neat?

00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:14.000
Alright, let's get going on today's article.

00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:15.759
Our podcast.

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.000
It's the gift speech.

00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:22.159
It comes out April the 6th, 2026.

00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:24.800
It's episode number 14.

00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:32.080
Your foundation scriptures, it is 1 Thessalonians 5, Galatians 4 and 9.

00:03:32.879 --> 00:04:03.680
I remember the time, not exactly, but the time of space in my life when I came into the knowledge that God, the creator of the universe, the creation of man, and then by reading and studying his word, Jesus, realized that God actually knew my name, the number of the hairs on my head, my disposition, my name, and every secret about me that only I know about.

00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:16.480
This is the God who created me in his image, and even though I failed to meet his expectations, still intricately and intimately he still calls me his child.

00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:19.680
I am loved unconditionally.

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:21.439
Thank you, God.

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:34.480
Also Romans five eight, but God shows and clearly proves his own love for us, our me, Terry, and it's okay if you add your name in there.

00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:46.879
By the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ the Messiah, the Messiah, the anointed one, died for us.

00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:54.399
We also can't just read verse eight in Romans without reading verse nine, at least I can't.

00:04:54.959 --> 00:05:16.000
Verse nine, therefore, since we are now justified, acquitted, made righteous, and brought into right relationship with God by Christ's blood, how much more certain is it that we shall be saved by him from the indignation and wrath of God?

00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:23.600
You've been saved from the indignation and wrath of God.

00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:26.240
God's not out to get you.

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:28.639
God's out to love you.

00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:44.399
Your love toward me cost you the life of your son, hung on a cruel cross of shame and defeat in every area of not only my life, but everyone and everything that He created.

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:55.199
All principalities, power, spirits and beings, and everything else that I can not even think about, Jesus paid it all, period.

00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:09.680
With that introduction in mind, let's listen to God Himself, using one of His creations, now renamed Paul, expand and define how our life as a Christian should be lived.

00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:12.160
We'll start in verse one.

00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:22.639
But as to the suitable times and precise seasons and dates, brethren, you have no necessity for anything being written to you.

00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:26.639
There was a forged letter being circulated by Paul.

00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:35.839
There was a forged letter being circulated, claimed to be written by Paul, stating that the end times had already come.

00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:49.839
For yourselves know perfectly well that the day of the return of the Lord will come as expectedly and suddenly as a thief in the night.

00:06:50.160 --> 00:07:12.480
When people are saying all is well and secure, and there is peace and safety, then in a moment unforeseen destruction, ruin and death will come upon them as suddenly as labor pain come upon a woman with child, and they shall by no means escape, for there will be no escape.

00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:22.800
But you are not given up to the power of darkness, brethren, for that day to overtake you by surprise like a thief.

00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:33.920
For you are all sons or daughters of light, and as sons and daughters of the day, we do not belong either to the night or to the darkness.

00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:49.920
Accordingly, then, let us not sleep as the rest do, but let us keep wide awake, alert, watchful, cautious, and on guard, and let us be sober, calm, collected, and circumspect.

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.480
For those who sleep sleep at night, and those who are drunk get drunk at night.

00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.800
But we belong to the day.

00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:07.199
Therefore let us be sober and put on the breastplate, the corset of faith and love for a helmet of salvation.

00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:11.279
For God has not appointed us to incur his wrath.

00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:33.039
He did not select us to condemn us, but that we might obtain his salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah, who died for us, so that whether we are still alive or are dead, at Christ's appearing, we might live together with Him and share His life.

00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:44.159
Therefore, encourage, admonish, exhort one another, and edify, strengthen, build up one another, just as you are doing.

00:08:44.559 --> 00:09:11.120
Now also we beseech you, brethren, get to know those who labor among you, recognize them for what they are, acknowledge and appreciate and respect them all, your leaders who are over you in the Lord, and those who warn and kindly reprove and exhort you, and hold them in very high esteem and intelligent and sympathetic appreciation of their work.

00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:14.639
Be at peace among yourselves.

00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:30.000
And we earnestly beseech you, brethren, admonish, warn, and seriously advise those who are out of line, the loafers, the disorderly, and the unruly encourage the timid and faint hearted.

00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:39.039
Help and give your support to weak souls and be very patient with everybody, always keeping your temper.

00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:43.600
Always keeping your temper.

00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:49.759
If some idiot pulls out in front of you on the highway, bless him.

00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.559
Pray that he's get where he is going safely and get him delivered.

00:09:55.120 --> 00:10:00.159
It's not who is right or who is wrong that is the issue.

00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:03.440
It's what is right and what is wrong is the issue.

00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:06.159
That person needs your prayers.

00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:09.279
If nothing else to get where he's going safely.

00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:12.559
Don't pray that he get a ticket.

00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:14.480
Don't pray that he get punished.

00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:22.559
Pray that he's forgiven and the Holy Spirit can nudge him enough to get him to give his heart to Jesus Christ.

00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:35.440
See that none of you repays another with evil for evil, but always aim to show kindness and to seek to do good to one another and to everybody.

00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:42.240
Be happy in your faith, and rejoice and be glad, heartily continually, always.

00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:48.240
Be unceasing in prayer, praying perseveringly, perseveringly.

00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:53.039
Thank God in everything, no matter what the circumstances may be.

00:10:53.360 --> 00:11:02.879
Be thankful and give thanks, for this is the will of God for you, who are in Christ Jesus, the revealer and mediator of that will.

00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:05.600
It's also a day the Lord has made.

00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:10.000
This Lord this Lord, this day was made for you.

00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:11.679
It was made for me.

00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:17.039
And it wasn't made for me to belittle and put down and make fun of things.

00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:24.159
It was related to me to make it wholesome and good and kind and tenderhearted.

00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:29.440
Do not quench, suppress, or subdue the Holy Spirit.

00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:33.200
Do not spurn the gifts and utterances of the prophets.

00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:43.120
Do not depreciate the prophetic revelations, nor despise inspired instruction or exhortation of warning.

00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:51.039
But test and prove all things until you can recognize what is good, to that hold fast.

00:11:51.759 --> 00:12:17.600
Abstain from evil, shrink from it, and keep aloof from it, in whatever form, whatever kind it may be, and may the God of peace himself sanctify you through and through, separate you from profane things, make you pur pure, make you pure not pur, make you purr pure and holy, consecrated to God.

00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:28.799
And may your spirit, soul, and body be preserved sound and complete, and found blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ the Messiah.

00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.120
Now some things to think about.

00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:43.519
God is a spirit.

00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:45.600
John four twenty-four.

00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:54.080
God is a spirit, a spiritual being, and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth or reality.

00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:58.000
Why was it necessary for God to send Jesus?

00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:05.039
Why didn't God just defeat the devil for us and send everything back to like it was in the Garden of Eden?

00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:14.879
Sorry about that.

00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:19.360
Thought that looked different.

00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:21.600
Oh well.

00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:23.200
Here we go.

00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:30.399
Mainly because God wasn't the one who indeed need to be redeemed from the curse.

00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:32.799
God actually was the redeemer.

00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:43.600
But because the religion, sin, the nature of evil ruling in and over the world, we were, mankind, in other words, convinced that God had turned against us.

00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:51.200
This was possible because of man not following God's word and therefore was deceived into believing God.

00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:59.279
God wanted us punished, starting with Adam and following mankind, the laws of flesh and defeat.

00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:06.480
If God came back to earth to redeem man, there are some conditions that must be dealt with.

00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:19.120
If God, the spirit form, came to earth but remained in his spiritual condition, how could we hear him, see him, fellowship with him, and be part of his family?

00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:26.080
When Adam sinned, he broke the communication link, the communication carrier of God.

00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:27.200
Words.

00:14:27.600 --> 00:14:31.440
Brother Adam broke the communication link by disobeying God.

00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:47.759
It took God having to send a man that was 100% God and 100% man, and because he was 100% God, we call and recognize him as the word made flesh, or in other words, Jesus.

00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:55.440
Let this same attitude and purpose and humble mind be in you, which was in Christ Jesus.

00:14:55.759 --> 00:15:09.360
Let him be your example in humility, who also being essentially one with God, and in the form of God, possessing the fullness of the attributes which make God God.

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:21.360
Did not think this equality with God was a thing to be eagerly grasped or retained, but stripped himself of all privilege and rightful dignity.

00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:23.200
You see, he was in heaven.

00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:36.639
He stripped himself of all that before he came to earth, so as to assume the guise of a servant, a slave, and that he became like men and was born a human being.

00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:48.559
And after he appeared in human form, he abased and humbled himself still further, and carried his obedience to the extreme of death, even the death of the cross.

00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:59.759
Therefore, because he stooped so low, God has highly exalted him and has freely bestowed on him the name that is above every name.

00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:17.360
That at that name, the name of Jesus, every knee should bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue frankly and openly confessed and acknowledged that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:23.279
Philippians 2, 5 through 11, amplified along with my comment.

00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:27.279
God is a spirit, John 4 24.

00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:35.600
God is a spirit, a spiritual being, and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and truth and in reality.

00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:39.919
How does God control this kingdom?

00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:41.120
By words.

00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:43.200
Hebrews 1 2.

00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:54.639
But in these last days he has spoken to us in the person of a son, because if he remained in his spiritual state, we would not have been able to hear it.

00:16:54.879 --> 00:17:15.599
Flesh and blood are not able to understand and comprehend God and his directions for our life on this earth because our spirits that are dead to God cannot bear and hear and understand God because dead men, spiritually or even physically, are unable to respond.

00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:27.759
So what are the qualifications that must be met that would enable God to redeem the world back into Himself and restore it to former pristine condition?

00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:31.920
The Redeemer must be God.

00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:37.599
The Redeemer must be a man, both physically and on this earth.

00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:40.559
The Redeemer must be totally sinless.

00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:42.640
In other words, back up.

00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:48.559
The Redeemer must be a man and he must be here physically and on this earth in a body form.

00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:49.839
He's got to have a body.

00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:51.759
The devil doesn't have a body.

00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:56.000
If the devil tries to do something, ask the devil to show his birth certificate.

00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:57.839
He does not have one.

00:17:58.880 --> 00:18:01.440
The Redeemer must be totally sinless.

00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:07.279
That would mean that the seed that brought Jesus into the world must be God Himself.

00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.160
That is why Mary had to be a virgin.

00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:15.839
The seed of mankind had to come from God the Father, the Spirit.

00:18:16.160 --> 00:18:23.440
The Redeemer must be seen and felt on this earth physically, so mankind can have a body to communicate with.

00:18:24.079 --> 00:18:27.039
Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign.

00:18:27.359 --> 00:18:38.640
Behold, the young woman who is unmarried and a virgin shall conceive and bear a son physically, and shall call his name Emmanuel, God with us.

00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:54.880
Jeremiah 31, verse 32, Micah 5, verses 3 through 5, Matthew 1, 22 and 23, and Isaiah 7 14 amplified.

00:18:55.680 --> 00:19:15.200
Then the angel said to her, The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High overshadow you like a shining cloud, and so the holy, pure, sinless thing, the offspring of God, which shall be born of you, will be called the Son of God.

00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:19.119
Luke 1, verse 35, amplified.

00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:24.640
Exodus 4 40, verse 34, Isaiah 7 14.

00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:35.759
Jesus is the necessary man, that God is 100% God and 100% man and qualifies him to be the Savior of everything.

00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:38.799
Now, listen to this.

00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:54.960
Therefore, if any person is engrafted, that's us, the Messiah engrafted in Christ, he is a new creation, a new creation altogether, not fixed up or refurbished, a new creation altogether.

00:19:55.279 --> 00:20:03.279
The old previous moral and spiritual condition has passed away, the fresh and new has become.

00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:26.720
But all things are from God, who, through Jesus Christ, reconciled us to Himself, received us into favor, brought us into harmony with Himself, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation, that by word and deed we might aim to bring others into harmony with Him.

00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:42.960
It was God personally present in Christ, because it was God in the body of man that gave God the ability and legal right to speak and explain to man his love toward us by using words.

00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:44.799
Jesus.

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:47.599
Jesus is the Word.

00:20:47.920 --> 00:21:07.359
Jesus being the mediator between God and man, reconciling and restoring the world to favor with himself, and not counting up and holding against men their trespasses, but canceling them and committing to us the message of reconciliation, of the restoration to favor.

00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:09.920
God's not mad at you.

00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:11.519
God loves you.

00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:19.440
So we are in Christ, so we are Christ's ambassadors, God making his appeal, as it were, through us.

00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:30.559
We as Christ's personal representative beg you for his sake to lay hold of the divine favor now offered you and be reconciled with God.

00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:56.000
For our sake he made Christ virtually to be sin, who knew no sin, so that in and through him we might become endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of the righteousness of God, what we ought to be approved and acceptable and in the right relationship with Him by His goodness.

00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.839
I'm gonna get in this and put more as we keep going on.

00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:05.759
This is a deep subject.

00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:08.960
And take the time and write these verses down.

00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:10.720
And study them and read them.

00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:13.200
And we'll start going over confession.

00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:15.440
Jesus paid it all.

00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:17.599
You are born again.

00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:19.839
Not of incorruptible seed.

00:22:20.640 --> 00:22:21.279
Yes.

00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:27.839
You were born again of incorruptible seed, not of incorruptible, not of corruptible seed.

00:22:28.240 --> 00:22:29.839
By the word of God.

00:22:30.559 --> 00:22:31.599
By the word.

00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:39.119
Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the Holy Spirit, the God, the Father, Emmanuel.

00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:45.920
His name should be called Wonderful, Counselor, Prince of Peace, Mighty God, Everlasting Father.

00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:50.079
I'm starting to get emotional here.

00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:54.640
You have a blessed day in Jesus' name.

00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:57.039
And we'll see you next week.

00:22:57.519 --> 00:22:58.640
God bless.
