No worries, but I think you got confused. We have always done it on Saturday. There have only been one or two occasions we did it another night. Thanks for watching anyway!

@@BrotherBill then i must have dementia. lol. because i thought it was on Friday. 😂

Thank you so much, Nan!

Awesome! I love that one! I wear it myself!

Its to give folk time to gather for the live broadcast. If you are watching after the fact you can just skip over it.

Hello, Good News Mom! Excellent questions! I am not a Baptist Brider. At least not in the proper sense of the term. Baptist Briders teach that only Baptist believers in properly constituted Baptist churches are the bride of Christ. This is completely false. Any true believer in Christ is part of the bride of Christ and will go to be with Him at the rapture. There will be some from many different denominations there and not all the Baptist will be there. Having said that, I believe that the beliefs traditionally held by the Baptists are the most biblical and that those views are held by some Independent Baptists today. Note I say some, not all. There are folks calling themselves the New IFB today that are preaching false doctrine. There are also Independent Baptist churches that have compromised sound doctrine. Having said all that, there are those who use the term Baptist Brider to describe anyone who believes that only the Baptists hold correct doctrine and that all churches, regardless of the names given them in previous centuries since the time of Christ, were in fact Baptist. This is not a proper use the term Baptist Brider. I believe that many groups for the past 2,000 years held to Baptist doctrine (the Waldenses, about half of the Anabaptists, the Paulicians, other groups) and we are simply a continuation of their lineage. I do hold to this teaching, but do not consider this a Baptist Bride position because I believe there are others who are truly saved. As for getting baptized in your new church, that is really a discussion between you and your pastor. Baptism requires three things to be valid, the right subject, the right method, and the right authority. The subject is the person being baptized. They have to be saved and have given a clear testimony to that effect to the one baptizing them. The method is by immersion in deep water as a symbol and not in order to be saved (baptismal regeneration). The authority is the one baptizing them. The authority rests not in the individual performing the baptism, but in the church that authorized him. The church must be doctrinally sound (Baptist in doctrine). An individual who has not been commissioned by such a church has no authority to baptize (I can't just go out baptizing people on my own). Personally, if I had a person come to me that was baptized in a Rick Warren non-denominational church, I would have to look into the church and ask the person coming to me about that church. I would be concerned about the authority of that church. The likelihood is that the church held some teachings that were false and lacked the biblical authority of a scriptural church. If that was the case they should be rebaptized. I do want to emphasize, though, that is a discussion to have with your pastor. Thanks for the great questions! Hope this helps!

This very much helps indeed! Thank you so dearly for this thorough reflection and response. I am in research and conversation with my pastor as we speak. I mentioned that I do not believe you are a Brider (having this slide in this video on it, & referencing Matt 28:19), as in my pastor’s first response, he was thinking you might be a Brider. I have heard you more extensively and did not take you to be one, so I think he was perhaps lumping you in that group by mistake. I greatly appreciate your clarification!!!! Praise be to Jesus, and praying for your continued word in Christ and protection for your family.

Also, I voted for Trujmp both times, but I’m just conjecturing here: after seeing all that Q mess (and believing it for a little bit), and realizing it was heavily connected with mystery religion, but getting somewhat deep into it, I had come across some videos claiming that Trujmp was a relative of Jesus Christ (somehow) and was tight with some hidden “true” king of England currently holding the crown & power there in secret through being a descendent of Jesus as well. Trujmp was involved in pushing these shots. He also is connected heavily with some new precious metal-backed alternative currency, and “revolutionary” healing pods (which can even supposedly reverse aging along with any disease) along with truly being Tesla’s nephew. As well, working with E Musk, who is obviously associated with nurolink (spelling errors on purpose, btw). Also, his surname is concomitant with the trump blown in 1 Cor. 15:52. Not that it is actually that trumpet, but it shares the name. Also, so many believers follow that man and I could see might be easily deceived by his potential to confirm that covenant written of in Daniel. If anyone is able to do such a treaty in the Middle East, it would be him. So, this is just a conjecture, but that perhaps he is this A/C? Just an idea given all the stuff I have seen on things since 2020.

Hello again Good News Mom! You are right, the future temple is part of God's plan, but is an afront to Him! I talk about that a bit in this live stream: kzbin.info2KAYr-xbT-w. The Tribulation temple will be performing Old Testament sacrifices that will never take away sin and reject the efficacy of the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. Midway through the Tribulation the Anti-Christ will enter the ungodly temple and put a stop to the sacrifice by declaring himself to be god (its final desecration). The temple will fulfill prophecy, but it will not be a good thing! The Jews, at the midpoint of the Tribulation and at nearly the same time as the desecration of the temple, will turn to Christ for salvation through the ministry of the 144,000 Jewish evangelists. In truth the bodies of believers are the temple of God now. That which will be constructed in Jerusalem will be no different than the building that Christ declared was left desolate in Matthew 23:38 and predicted to be destroyed in Matthew 24:2. As for 2 Thessalonians 2:4, I believe this is still future and refers to the actual Anti-Christ entry into the physical temple in Jerusalem. The building will be built as the temple of God, though God will not be present there.

@@BrotherBill Thank you! Appreciate the livestream link too. Lord willing, later today I’ll watch it. God speed you!

I have heard suggestions of Trump being the Anti-Christ. Some also suggest King Charles, the president of Ukraine, and Obama. In the past they said Henry Kissinger, JFK, and even Nikita Khrushchev. 2 Thessalonians 2:8 says, "And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:" In the context of the chapter this revelation of the Anti-Christ follows the removal of the Spirit's influence in the rapture. Because of this, I don't believe anyone will know who the Anti-Christ is until that time. Of course we will be gone in the rapture before that time. To be sure, some folks get quite creative in making arguments for their particular candidate for the Anti-Christ, but I don't think any of them are right. As for Trump, I question the idea that he is a Christian or, for that matter, a true conservative. I consider him to be a business man. He saw the "product" the American people wanted and provided it. I have no problem with that and have voted for him before and will do so again. That does not imply that I think he is godly or that he will "save" America. He is simply the best choice we have available. (My opinion of course.)

I got to spend some time with Pastor Davis! He seems like a very good man!

@@BrotherBill he is. He is always referring to Schubel Sterns, Obadiah Holmes, and other heroes of Baptist heritage. He and you are two peas in a pod!

"America in Crimson Red" is an excellent book!

I will see what I can do, but it won't likely be soon. I will try to keep it in mind though.

Thank you.
