I once read an article, I wish I had this article to show as reference now! Anyway I remember that it was written by a Jewish man who said that the historical manger was not a feeding trough. A manger was a room (probably at the bottom of the house)where they kept the white lambs. It was swept clean and the lambs legs were bandaged in swaddling to prevent them from getting dirty. These were the lambs (without spot or blemish) taken to the temple for sacrifice. This makes so much sense to me. That Jesus (the Lamb of God) would be born in a "manger", the ultimate sacrificial Lamb. It would be suitable because it was kept so clean. Interesting!

Sticking with Christmas, the number of "wise men" that came to see Jesus is a very common misconception. I heard it nonstop growing up (plus virtually every nativity scene/play/movie depicts it) that there were 3 "wise men". Of course the Bible doesn't give a hard number. It just says magi(translated to wise men). Many traditions assume 3 because they brought 3 distinct gifts.

I was very sad and a woman managing the play said I could be the yule log carrier. I accepted the role but later after reading the passage I remember protesting that there was no such thing as a yule log. I was criticized for refusing to carry this log. I ended up just following the Wiseman up the church aisle. Yes I was just 8 but I could read.

Some scholars believe that Moses was making reference to his inability to speak Hebrew fluently. Because he grew up in the “ways of Egypt” - and was mighty in word and deed, as Stephen said - he didn’t speak Hebrew with the right accent. Therefore, he wouldn’t have the social equity to be the leader of the Israelites.

Today, a lady at my church was talking about Elijah being taken up in the chariot and I corrected her, saying it was a whirlwind. She was shocked and thankful for the correction. She had always been taught he was taken up in the chariot through art and songs as she grew up; she’s in her70’s. I used to think similar as well, and it’s why I always encourage people to read their bibles. The smallest change can make a huge difference. Som people are shocked to find that Elisha was with him, and that if he wanted a double portion, he had to see when he was taken; the chariot was a distraction. Elisha kept his eyes on his master and that is such a powerful lesson.
@NicholasproclaimerofMessiah

I think the chariot is a prophetic expression of the spirit/wind that carried Eliyah away. The word "spirit" means "gust of air" so a whirlwind is symbolic of spirit. I don't think it was a distraction, rather I find it ironic that you offered an extra-biblical interpretation. Now, I've offered an interpretation too, but I said "I think" whereas you stated your interpretation as fact. If my thought is correct, then the chariot is one and the same as the whirlwind; so that's a significant possibility unless we have reason to reject it. I mean, I don't have that text memorized or anything, maybe I'm missing something. I'm going to start daily Scripture reviews soon (as in KZbin videos on my channel), so in a few years I'll know our Bible much more exactly than I do now.

And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me. And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so. And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces. He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan; 2 Kings 2:9‭-‬13 KJV

I was always taught that the teaching of the Satan being a sort of worship leader before his rebellion was related to the understanding that he is a cherub/seraphim- one of the living creatures that are directly beneath the throne of God. In Revelation, the four living creatures seem to have a connection to when worship starts and stops. I thought that was why the Satan is said to have once been a “worship leader.” Either way, thank you for this video and information! It’s always a joy to try to learn and understand Scripture more, and correct any misconceptions I hold.

Here's another missed point of a Bible passage: The Widow's Mite. It is often thought it is an admonition for sacrificial giving - perhaps but that is secondary. The passage is an implied rebuke from Jesus concerning the Pharisees who put this woman in her penury. This theme flows from the previous chapter. There are NO adjectives commending the widow for her offering or condemning those who gave out of their abundance. Jesus made a stark observation.

I could add a sixth common rumour. Adam and Eve ate an apple from an apple tree and that was their sin for which God condemned mankind to guaranteed eventual death. That's one I believed until a pastor's wife, way back when I was converted in the 1970's, told me there was no apple involved. It was a tree called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Talk about an eye opening moment.

The word "apple" in Old English (16th century and before) was a generic term that could designate any fruit, and was not limited to the red or yellow apples we eat today. Over the centuries, the denotation changed, becoming progressively more specific. Words change meaning over time, and this is one.

The naivety of spiritual insight here is alarming. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is not any natural fruit tree - I don't care what the apple has represented over the years. The tree of good and evil is the 'way of Satan' or the modus operandi of Satan, the adversary of God. Once Adam and Eve's eyes were open to that, once they got it into their system there was no going back. They couldn't unlearn it. It was the test we had to pass. For the record, the 'tree of life' is Jesus Christ or the way of God. The tree that Jesus was crucified on was, spiritually speaking, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and in so doing He rendered it powerless for everyone who believes in Him.

@Team Jesus Unity There are two possible interpretations. One is simply that people shared beds to not freeze to death at night before modern furnaces; so nothing to do with eroticism at all. The other possibility is the old-man and new-man, but the old-man is taken and destroyed and we are made new. What is not possible is that God is casually referencing a sin which is rightly punished with death according to Christ's own righteous Torah which He gave to Moses. Please wait until you trust and obey Christ before you tell people you are Christian. We know you by your fruit. You are a liar, twisting Scripture to your own destruction. You reject Christ and His righteousness because you love the world and those which are in the world, the craving of the flesh which you now justify; but whosoever loves the world, the love of the Father is NOT in you. Homosexuality comes out from of the world, not from of the Father. Read 1st John... You reject Christ so you may have the world.

@Team Jesus Unity I'm so GLAD you brought that passage up, Team Jesus Unity! Because if you look at the original Greek for Luke 17:34, it doesn't say "two men" shall be in one bed; it says TWO shall be in one bed. There is no word for "man" in that passage; the word "men" is actually added by the KJV translators. The actual translation should say "two shall be in one bed." So that changes things a bit. Plus, I would add that, prior to our oversexualized spin on life and culture, it was not an unheard of thing for two people to need to share a bed without engaging in sexual activity. That may be a foreign concept to people who cannot segregate sexual behavior and lust from all of life like mature adults used to be able to do, but it wasn't for people in earlier generations. But thank you very much for allowing us to clear up that misunderstanding!

@Kyle Isaacson okay first off answer the question, does God not have the right to take the person he gave life off the earth, does God not have the power? the babies don't know anything and are not at the age of accountability so therefore it can't understand or have the knowledge to know let me answer the slavery questions for you Exodus 21:7, "If a man sells his daughter as a female slave, she is not to go free as the male slaves do." When a daughter was placed into slavery by her father, it was often to pay a debt combined with a way for her to find a husband. Of course, in modern times, this sounds odd. But the fact is in the Old Testament context, marriage was a very important institution. Daughters were expected to marry early and produce children. If they did not marry, they were sometimes considered cursed, and this was shameful for the family and the father's reputation. Love was sometimes a deciding factor in marriage. But, most often, marriages were arranged. Such is the case with a female slave. This is why the text says they are not to go free as a male slave does because she has more rights than a male in this case. Consider the rest of the text. Exodus 21:7-11, "If a man sells his daughter as a female slave, she is not to go free as the male slaves do. 8 “If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who designated her for himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He does not have authority to sell her to a foreign people because of his unfairness to her. 9 “If he designates her for his son, he shall deal with her according to the custom of daughters. 10 “If he takes to himself another woman, he may not reduce her food, her clothing, or her conjugal rights. 11 “If he will not do these three things for her, then she shall go out for nothing, without payment of money." We see from the following verses that she could be redeemed (v. 8), could not be sold to foreign people (v. 8) and could marry the master's son (v. 9). But if she did not marry the son, her food and clothing could not then be reduced (v. 10). And, if these conditions were not met, she was to go free. No such requirements were made of a male slave. "Provision for a woman in one’s charge throughout the ancient Near East consisted of food, clothing and oil. The third in the series here (NIV: “marital rights”) is an attempt to translate a word that occurs only here in the Old Testament. The frequent occurrence of “oil” in that position in numerous ancient Near Eastern documents has led some to suspect that the word in the Hebrew text might also be an obscure term for oil (compare Hos 2:7; Eccles 9:7-9)." (Matthews, Victor Harold, Mark W. Chavalas, and John H. Walton. The IVP Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament. Electronic ed. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2000. The reason a female slave was treated differently than a male slave in the context of Exodus 21:7, is due to the issue of marriage. Women were to be married early and produce children as was the Jewish custom based on God telling Adam and Eve to multiply and fill the earth (Genesis 1:22). Women who are not married were often considered cursed and could bring shame on the family. In addition, daughters who were placed into slavery were sometimes expected to marry a member of that household in which she served. This was yet another way for a father to find a husband for his daughter in the Ancient Near East culture. In the context, the female 'slave' could be redeemed (v. 8), could not be sold to foreign people (v. 8) and could marry the master's son (v. 9). But if she did not marry the son, her food and clothing could not then be reduced (v. 10). And, if these conditions were not met, she was to go free. No such requirements were made of a male slave.

Luke 2:7 -- "room" is _topos,_ which just means "location," or "lodging place." The interesting part is that "inn" is not what we think of as a secure dwelling, like a "hotel," but probably refers to the caravanserai at Bethlehem, which is mentioned by Jeremiah (41:17). A caravanserai was an open area for travellers that included a roof and walls with a dirt floor. The animals would be situated around the caravanserai, while the people would sleep under the roof. But because there was no room under the roof, Mary and Joseph lodged outside the caravanserai, among the animals, perhaps in the nearby limestone cave attached to the caravanserai (that has been noted, historically). In any case, we know that He was not born in a nice place, but really did come in humility.

Check out the following link. Similar houses were built in Colonial America. Please note the ladder leading to the Upper Level.

However, the Scriptures never say he was on a horse. “As I made my journey and drew near to Damascus, about noon a great light from heaven suddenly shone about me.

You're right, the text does not say that Saul was on a horse. However, the Lord tells Saul that it is hard to kick against the goads. I think the Lord was using the fact that Saul was on a horse to make that connection. I can't prove that, but it makes sense.

I had been taught by a pastor that the goads referred to spur-like devices used by horse riders. I still haven't learned my lesson that most pastors have no idea what they're talking about. lol.

But Gen 25:25 makes the best case for “ruddy” being of red hair (and associated complexion) when it says that Esau was “red” and hairy. Yep, same Hebrew word there! When trying to determine what a word means, you really want to return to the original language to see if it provides clarity. Think about it this way, we are currently looking at an English word that is no longer used while trying to determine not only what it meant in the 1600’s, but also drawing a conclusion from that of what it meant in Hebrew! How accurate do you think we will be without going to the actual Hebrew text?

The verse in Ezekiel names a musical instrument, “timbrels,” a musical term used throughout the Old Testament. Immediately following the word, is another word that is quite possibly another musical term. I would be careful to rule out that he wasn't involved in worship music in some way as we don't know what the translated word 'pipes' actually means b/c 'neqeb' in Hebrew only appears in this place in the bible, it may or may not mean a wind instrument, it could be a jewel setting. Whether he was the worship leader, we don't know. Was he a musician? We don't know. I understand what you're saying. Either way, he was the "anointed guardian cherub" which sounds like a leader in some way. Overall, the issue of him being a Musician or Worship Leader doesn't really matter but I wouldn't rule it out, look at how demonic music is, and how many musicians have claimed to make a deal with the devil or sell their soul for fame and fortune. I suggest checking out Good Fight Ministries Documentary called "They Sold Their Souls For Rock and Roll" if you haven't seen it. I don't agree with everything Pastor Joel teaches but the documentary is eye-opening.

Ezekiel 28 is addressed to a pagan ruler. Some think there is an indirect reference to Satan but that is not explicit in the text. Even if it refers to Satan, it does not mean he necessarily was a musician (since the meaning of those terms as musical is disputed) and it especially gives no evidence he was a worship leader as so many claim.

Peace will come to this world, because devil will no longer seduce people into wrong behavior and remeber what will happen when the devil will be released once again? He will gather countless of souls to go against God again. So i believe devil will be greatly responsible for many many sins of people on the Judgement Day.

Hey sister I would want to know about your theological position whether your a calvinist, provisionist or arminian? Continuationist or cessationist? Pre-, post, or amillennial? Grace to you and thanks for this great video.

True, the Bible only refers to wise men. In reality the wise men had an entourage of servants and guards. The three gifts they brought might be a fairly good indicator of the number of wise men. One assume each of the wise men would offer a gift.

CM, HB, You are both totally wrong, and have no idea what you are talking about. There is no such person as satan and Lucifer is Jesus. You both need to stop listening to church leaders that have zero understanding of the Bible and read the Bible yourselves. The church is 100% apostate and there is no Biblical truth to be found there, only perversions of scripture and deception.

@saladdogger that's funny you state archaeology since there is the archaeological site in Israel for Jesus' birth. I have to check, but I think it's the Church of the Nativity. And if I'm not getting mixed up with the site of Jesus' tomb, the Nativity was in a cave. But I'll let you discover this on your own and make corrections.

@saladdogger I am Catholic. I'm a Catholic convert. And I trust the Catholic Church because of apostolic succession and because of church history which is Christian history. So I am biased that I believe these sites are true because the Catholic church has no reason to try to lie. It wants people to have the fullest relationship with Jesus Christ and to become everything that God created them to be. These sites are a testament to the Life of Christ and how we can actually touch and walk where Jesus was. That should Inspire us and encourage us. But if you think that God's left Christianity and didn't come back until after the Reformation, then none of this will bring true to you.

@saladdogger that's so weird. it's still your interpretation of the Bible. And you implicitly stated that you're the authority on this. When somebody has an interpretation that's different from you, what do you do then? Are you the first person in 2,000 years to know exactly how the Bible supposed to be interpreted and everybody else was wrong or at least had inaccuracies?

@saladdogger you said you can't see apostolic succession in Scripture? How many times have you actually read the Bible? Or do you just not read the Bible because Thomas Payne doesn't believe it? Either you're very young and haven't read that much, or you read something that immediately validated your worldview and you ascribe to that philosophy. Either way you're dealing with a very small deck of cards and lack wisdom to actually communicate in a thoughtful discussion. There's too many holes in your argument to go into. And I'm taking away time for my family to talk to you. That's insanity

People also slander and claim that Paul was homosexual because he wanted to remain unmarried. It disgusts me because people talk about people today who prefer to be single and prefer to better themselves with Jesus only are told that they do not want to marry, are gay, or that they do not want to be in a relationship.

Servant Status Ministries yes of course. But I mean specifically if Paul did indeed struggle with such desires it wouldn’t diminish who he was.

Also the the forbidden fruit is never described as an apple but simply a piece of fruit. Also the serpent in the garden of eden is never directly stated as a snake but a serpent. Some people theorize it could actually be a drake or wyvern thus making the curse to crawl on its belly more applicable.
