Gold = God? Oil = God? Can you buy God? Beware of those who say, Yes
Series The Just Shall Live By Faith
Well, last week, pastor actually answered some questions. And... if you know this pastor, he'll tell you that with answers come many, many more questions. But he's right. The Bible proves its Authorship beyond any doubt; Infinite God Himself.
We’re in Matthew 24 and 25. And last week we learned what "Talent" is; IT’S GOLD And Silver. These are parables from God Who just happens to be standing there in perfect flesh. We also learned that in this parable, Gold is God and Silver = Blood. By the way, what’s so important about 5, 2, 1? There's more to that, but pastor will explain.
"Pride" in Jeremiah 13 helps you understand what "Ability" refers to in the parables. Again, pastor does a great job explaining this mystery.
Today, our pastor says he's going to start explaining what this "Interest" from the bankers is about. And he'll get into the Oil. The 5 virgins without oil are "Lazy" and wicked. So what does that mean? We've learned that it is God that gives the "food", the "oil", and the "talent". And when considered in THIS light, now you start to understand the deeper meaning of these passages.
Next pastor really starts getting into what's going on with these virgins. This really is fantastic stuff. Listen at your own risk though. You won’t be well liked afterward.
Now pastor gets into Jeremiah 18 and ties that with Romans 9. Think Potter and Clay. This is a Dramatic Theodicy.
Obviously, there is much more this guy will cover. Good stuff here.
If you have encouragement and questions for pastor, feel free to write or call. For those who support this ministry, we thank you. And we thank all of you for listening.
