Lutzer is one of my favorite authors! It seems he has lived everything he says! At least he knows how to apply it all and teach what he has learnt along the way!!

Excellent communication tips. I wish I had heard this message 50 years ago. Thank you

Dever and 9 Marks are woke and problematic. He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing

Meditation on scripture.Yes!

We love you John

Jesus said, "whoever puts away his wife and marries another commits adultery,...

Love that introduction: "... who cares that you are offended?"

I have found by and large that we love our church family members….until they leave then often it’s a different story. The sincerity of those that may leave for whatever reason is suddenly put in doubt. The Christian friendship is broken as well as the church family circle. And as Pastor Begg has stated before those on the outside looking in say to themselves, why would I want to be a part of that family? We will be known for our love for one another, or the lack there of.

Theology means Good by God n Holy Spirit!! No room for them in theology!!!

Wonderful dialog! Thanks for the affirmation.

Indeed, this is a big blind spot in our churches, specially because it is so very socially accepted. There must be serious reflection and prayer regarding how every church community deals with discipline in the church in this regard. My church recently married a believer who divorced her unbelieving husband because of unequal yoke and then married a fellow congregant who she met while married... I don't know if this was right.

Very insightful, thank you for sharing. I liked the questions.

The more I study the more I discover I don’t know. But at least I know that God’s plans, purposes, and will never change. And everything is open to inspection and instruction. Blessings.

Hmm, only once I heard him say the name of JESUS in his whole interview 🤔

Oh I understand now. If the Trump MAGA morons spew their hate with soft words it’s ok?

I have a right to be angry about this. But, if I could sit down and have a face to face conversation with someone,I could hold my tongue. But not like this.

an interesting conversation… thank you for allowing a space to talk about this

2 years too late but congratulations Ps. Joseph 🎉

We change our culture by engaging in the heart of it and being part of the solution. 👌🤔

No. Separation of church and state. Stop the spread of Christian Nationalism.

if only cleaning up politics were as simple as washing dishes there would be a lot of clean dishes and honest politicians, and none would be bought by billionaires. long live president Musk. if only God didn't care about "free will" no one would have abortions neither would men marry men and women women. It would be nice if DNA alone would determine who one is but alas how that DNA is expressed is equally as determinant on who one is, at least corporeally. Since probably forever the only measure of a politician by Christians was limited to only if they oppose abortion, oppose gay rights, support Israel, and lately if they oppose transsexuals. That is how we ended up with billionaires dismantling the government form within and running out the back door with all the money. Finally people at my church are slowly beginning to realize how they were lead astray just as the Pharisees lead astray the people in the time of Jesus.

0.17% of the MBC tithes went to missions so in a way he is telling the truth 😂.

In 2 Peter 3:15 is written about Paul writing things that were difficult to understand. It is essential that a pastor be able to delegate leadership and authority to carry out what Jesus taught in Matthew 28:19, 20. Jesus taught and demonstrated Matthew 28:19, 20 by instruction and demonstration. The pastor must also be one who raises up leaders according to 2 Timothy 2:2. A pastor who does not do that is not qualified as a pastor. James 1:22, "But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves." If a pastor is not a doer of the word then he deludes himself. For one to lead in making disciples he must be accountable and transparent. People today are looking for a church led by an authentic and genuine pastor. Pastoring is not just about passing on cognitive information. Teaching information at the cognitive level is the lowest level of teaching. For a pastor to expect people to do what they teach at the cognitive level is like teaching someone to build a bridge at a cognitive level and then at the end of that instruction to trust the person to build a bridge. Who would ever trust that method of bridge building?

This is pure drivel.There is zero mention of accountability here at all. I have seen far too many "pastors" who feel they are way above any form of accountability. Christians seem to feel if they have a get out of hell free card cuz they are christians that they can break every single rule or law of man or God. There is NO provision for accountability among them. They will look the other way even when faced with profouind departures from anything Christ stood for.

Amen. Alberta is having a tough time with these biblical qualifications. They invite people to preach and lead congregations based on their popularity on social media

Thank you so much of your practical advice sir,

That biblical principle testifies that David Platt’s heart❤ is with a Range Rover and $1.1 million house.

As a hireling and bondservant of the Lord we want to know the Word of God, immerse ourselves in Him and learn to know and love Him, then we want to point all believers to Him, so they may know the Word and learn to abide in Him and love Him. Point sheep towards the Good Shepherd who gives to all who seek Him without measure and without partiality.

The problem is is the scripture is misinterpreted by the theologians of today. The Trinity doctrine is “another” doctrine that is no doctrine at all and is to be condemned. Just listening to him talk tells you everything. He does not know the true doctrine of Christ. If he did, he would be a free man. But he isn’t. Chained in his mind to the old man of sin which he doesn’t believe is dead and therefore does not reckon him dead. He is not free, and those who believe him are not free. The blind leading the blind…both in the ditch.

Yes, run to it. I hear a sound in the night. I jump off the bed, unlock the door, fling it open - run in the dark, search. I only tremble before God. I seek Him in pain and suffering this world. Stay the course with Christ the LORD - He overcame the grave. Christ in Whom God is well pleased. He sits at the Right Hand of God. He led captivity captive with Him. Run away - No❗️Run to Jesus. He is my Savior, my Redeemer. I can’t do this life without Jesus. Christ Jesus lives today. Holy Spirit never leaves me. “Fight the good fight”. I gave this scripture to the Pastor for my mother’s funeral. It’s what mama did, all day, every day.

AMEN PASTOR. BE BLESSED .

A gifted nugget to our age

Excellent. Thank you. Greetings from Durban, South Africa.

Thank you for this podcast, i subscribe to you, thanks also to ptr schriener.. God bless

I love the answer to THE question, stay close to the Lord 🙏🏽

As a student in serminary, I thank God I found this channel. This content really helped with some of my perspectives. The questions were on point. God bless you both

You do not read the bible, i can not believe that... Do not believe men you have to believe the word of GOD The catholic church is the will of GOD. 17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. 18 And I tell you that you are Peter,[b] and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades[c] will not overcome it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be[d] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be[e] loosed in heaven.” And you read this? From now on all generations will call me blessed, 49 for the Mighty One has done great things for me- who is this? Yes, it is Mary.... And no one of the non - catholic read this: Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever. And everybody forgot this word: If anyone causes one of these little ones-those who believe in me-to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and ...

I appreciate the discussion, but we don't "have to decide" anything. It is written in God's word. If God is speaking in tongues and doing miracles, then those who deny it deny God. If he is not, and the tongues are not real, not close to what happened in Acts, and there are no verified miracles anywhere, because we have the finished word of God given to us by the Apostles, then God's church, like the saints of old, must reject all fake miracles. They must not be allowed in the assembly. It is no small thing to say, "The Lord said," when he has not said.

Says it like it is

"Theology without application is useless."

To study God’s Word IN LIGHT OF THE CHURCH FOUNDED BY CHRIST ON THE AUTHORITY OF THE APOSTLES. If your “church” is not Apostolic but “reformed”. Forget it. Luther, Calvin, Knox, Zwingly COULD NOT AGREE ON BASIC THINGS!! How can Protestant churches know better? They are lost without The Magisterium and The Apostolic Tradition. Protestant Syllogism Sola Scriptura 1st Premise: The Biblical Canon is a truth of Faith. 2nd Premise: Only Scripture has truths of Faith. Conclusion. Therefore, the Biblical Canon must be demonstrated by Scripture. If it cannot be demonstrated by Scripture, then it is NOT A TRUTH OF FAITH.

27 years and still does not understand "eat my flesh and drink my blood" = "eat my flesh and drink my blood". Protestant Ministers give out fake bread and wine Eucharist. Catholic and Orthodox Priests give out authentic Eucharist i.e. the substance of Jesus Christ's living flesh and blood, with His Soul and Divinity. What is the point of fake Eucharist?

Preach better and help your congregations: Teach the Gospel not the Bible. When you teach the Gospel you teach the very necessary parts of the Bible. Bring their identity up and shove it in their face....if you are a believer, NOTHING will separate you from God and salvation through Jesus....that they can't mess up their salvation (which so many don't realize). GIVE THEM JOY AND PEACE IN CHRIST AND CONFIDENCE FOR THE DAY WHEN THE GOATS AND SHEEP ARE SEPARATED.

Lee has a low bar for truth. His argument is claim based and yet again, without evidence.

Love this

Dr Schreiner's opening words, "You don't want to cvommunicate with people that your view of the Millennium is as clear as your view of the Trinity.". WHY NOT!!?? If your view of the Millennium is litersl, it's very clear that Christ will reign on Earth from Jerusalem for 1,000 years!

New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below? Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary? What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary. God is not now a “racist”. He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son’s blood at Calvary. The Apostle Paul warned against using “genealogies” in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4, and Titus 3:9. If the New Covenant is "everlasting" in Hebrews 13:20 and the Old Covenant is "obsolete" in Hebrews 8:13, why would any Christian believe God is going back to the Old Covenant system during a future time period? What brings all local churches together into one Body under the blood of Christ? The answer is found below. Let us now share the Old Testament Gospel found below with the whole world. On the road to Emmaus He said the Old Testament is about Him. He is the very Word of God in John 1:1, 14. Awaken Church to this truth. Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by husband unto them, saith the LORD: Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1 (Gal. 3:16)? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel (John 1:49)? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? What did Paul say about Genesis 12:3 in Galatians 3:8, 3:16? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis? Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, man-made Bible doctrines fall apart. Let us now learn to preach the whole Gospel until He comes back. The King of Israel is risen from the dead! (John 1:49, Acts 2:36) We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24. 1Jn 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. 1Jn 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 1Jn 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. The following verses prove the Holy Spirit is the master teacher for those now in the New Covenant. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Mar 1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost. Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Act 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. 1Co 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 1Jn 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Well that's 17 minutes I could have done something productive with, that was useless as the udders on a bull. If he is a professor then our seminaries are truly jokes.

Dr. Schreiner has been a trusted scholar. I’m always encouraged when he shares his heart. Keep Schreining :)
