https://www.moodyradio.org/radioplayer.aspx?episode=545367&hour=1

Summary:

According to 1Kings 6, the Israelite’s exodus took place in 1446 BC. 1050 BC is the date when Saul became king. So, it is about four hundred years. We know the date of David and Solomon ruled and the split of the kingdom in 930 BC. Saul, David and Solomon each had about 40 year’s reign.

Scriptures:

1 Kings

 1And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord. -nkjv

1And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord. -kjv

1 Now it came about in the four hundred and eightieth year after the sons of Israel came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, that is, the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord. -nasb

1 In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites came out of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, the second month, he began to build the temple of the Lord. -niv

7 marks of a right heart before God part 4 by JC Ryle

A right heart is a PURIFIED heart (Acts 15:9Matt. 5:8). It loves holiness, and hates sin. It strives daily to cleanse itself from all filthiness of flesh and spirit (2 Cor. 7:1). It abhors that which is evil, and cleaves to that which is good. It delights in the law of God, and has that law engraved on it, that it may not forget it (Psalm 119:11). It longs to keep the law more perfectly, and takes pleasure in those who love the law. It loves God and people. Its affections are set on things above. It never feels so light and happy as when it is most holy; and it looks forward to heaven with joy, as the place where perfect holiness will at length be attained.

Scriptures

Acts 15

So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith -nkjv

Are the twenty four elders humans or angels?

The land and the book, moody radio, August 12, 2023 with Dr Charlie Dyer and Jon Gauger.

Question:

Jon Gauger:

Reggie takes us all the way to the end of the bible in the book of Revelation in chapter 5 verse 10 it says ” And have made us kings and priests to our God and we shall reign on earth…” but other version he says like the nasb, esv and niv have they instead of us, why is there a difference and to whom it is refering?

Answer from Dr Charlie Dyer:

https://www.moodyradio.org/radioplayer.aspx?episode=538008

At 32:04

Summary:

In KJV and NKJV, it can be inferred that when they use “us”, they are implying that the 24 elders represent humans, either the church or the church and Israel and in NASB, NIV, it can be inferred that they are implying that the 24 elders are a class of angels.

corrected from “either the church or the church in Israel”

Scripture:

Revelation 5

Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying:

“You are worthy to take the scroll,
And to open its seals;
For You were slain,
And have redeemed us to God by Your blood
Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
10 And have made us kings and priests to our God;
And we shall reign on the earth.” -nkjv

And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. -kjv

 When He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they *sang a new song, saying,

“Worthy are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were slaughtered, and You purchased people for God with Your blood from every tribe, language, people, and nation.

10 You have made them into a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will reign upon the earth.” -nasb

 And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people. And they sang a new song, saying:

“You are worthy to take the scroll
    and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
    and with your blood you purchased for God
    persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.
10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God,
    and they will reign on the earth.” -niv

7 marks of a right heart before God part 3 by JC Ryle

 A right heart is a heart which BELIEVES ON CHRIST ALONE for salvation, and in which Christ dwells by faith (Rom. 10:10Eph. 3:17). It rests all its hopes of pardon and eternal life on Christ’s atonement, Christ’s mediation, and Christ’s intercession. It is sprinkled in Christ’s blood from an evil conscience (Heb. 10:22). It turns to Christ as the compass-needle turns to the north. It looks to Christ for daily peace, mercy, and grace—as the sun-flower looks to the sun. It feeds on Christ for its daily sustenance, as Israel fed on the manna in the wilderness. It sees in Christ a special fitness to supply all its needs and requirements. It leans on Him, hangs on Him, builds on Him, cleaves to Him, as its physician, guardian, husband, and friend.

Romans 10

10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. -nkjv

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. -kjv

10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. -nsab

10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. -niv

Ephesians 3

17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, -kjv

17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, -nasb

17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, -niv

Hebrews 10

 22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. -niv

Why is Matthew 17:21 missing in some translations?

Open line radio June 17, 2023 hour 2:

Listener:

Why in Matthew 17, it jumps from verse 20 to 22, skipping verse 21?

Dr Michael Rydelnik: At 33:14

https://www.moodyradio.org/radioplayer.aspx?episode=534288&hour=2

Summary:

Matthew 17:14 onwards, it is about the issue of the demon that would not come out. According to Dr Michael Rydelnik, many manuscripts omit verse 21 because the earliest and best manuscripts of the new testament don’t have that. Dr Michael Rydelnik says this is because during the early middle ages, people added stuff to the bible. According to Christians who believe in the KJV, they offer a different explanation.

Scripture

Matthew 17

20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. 21 However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” 22 Now while they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men, -nkjv

20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

22 And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men: -kjv

20 And He *said to them, “Because of your meager faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.” 22 And while they were gathering together in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be handed over to men; -nasb

20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” [21] [a] 22 When they came together in Galilee, he said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. -niv

7 marks of a right heart before God part 2 by JC Ryle

A right heart is a BROKEN and CONTRITE heart (Psalm 51:17). It is broken off from pride, self-conceit, and self-righteousness. Its former high thoughts of self are cracked, shattered, and shivered to atoms. It thinks itself guilty, unworthy, and corrupt. Its former stubbornness, heaviness, and insensibility have thawed, disappeared, and passed away. It no longer thinks lightly of offending God. It is tender, sensitive, and jealously fearful of running into sin (2 Kings 22:19). It is humble, lowly, and self-abased, and sees in itself no good thing.

Psalm 51

17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
    a broken and contrite heart
    you, God, will not despise. -nkjv

17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. -kjv


17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
A broken and a contrite heart, God, You will not despise. -nasb

17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
    a broken and contrite heart
    you, God, will not despise. -niv

2 Kings 22

19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become a desolation and a curse, and you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you,” says the Lord. -nkjv

19 Because thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith the Lord. -kjv

19 since your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become an object of horror and a curse, and you have torn your clothes and wept before Me, I have indeed heard you,’ declares the Lord.” -nasb

19 Because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard what I have spoken against this place and its people—that they would become a curse[b] and be laid waste—and because you tore your robes and wept in my presence, I also have heard you, declares the Lord. niv

When is this peace and safety going to occur?

Open line radio hour 2 June 3, 2023

Listener:

Dr Rydelnik, my question is from 1 Thessalonians 5:3 where it says when they say peace and safety, then sudden destruction will come upon them, when do you and other bible scholars think that this time of peace and safety is going to occur?

Answer from Dr Michael Rydelnik at 16:44

https://www.moodyradio.org/radioplayer.aspx?episode=533295&hour=2

Summary:

There is going to be a rise of a political ruler belonging to a 10 nation European confederation of some sort that will broker a peace deal for Israel but it is a false peace. It is when this false peace occurs will sudden destruction of the day of the Lord happen.

Scripture:

1 Thessalonians 5

For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. -nkjv

For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. -kjv

While they are saying, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction will come upon them like labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. -nasb

While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. -niv

Difference in translations on Daniel 9:26

Open Line Radio on May 20, hour 2

Question from Listener:

I pray that the Holy Spirit will help you enlighten my understanding. As I teach scripture, I taught Daniel, the book of Daniel, several times and I teach out of the New King James normally but I discovered that in Daniel 9:26, a phrase that I use to point to Messiah, Messiah shall be cut off but not for Himself, that phrase “but not for Himself” is not in the Holman Christian Standard, is not in the NIV and any of them.

Answer from Dr Michael Rydelnik: At 7:38 mins

Summary:

In NKJV, Daniel 9:26 reads

26 “And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;
And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

In KJV,

26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

In NASB,

26 Then after the sixty-two weeks, the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined.

In NIV,

26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.

In HCSB,

26 After those 62 weeks
the Messiah will be cut off
and will have nothing.
The people of the coming prince
will destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end will come with a flood,
and until the end there will be war;
desolations are decreed.

In Hebrew, the meaning is unclear.

“Not for himself” denotes substitution

“Nothing” means the Messiah is left destitute

Relationship between Israel and the Church

Open Line program on May 6, 2023 hour 2

Question from Listener to Dr Michael Rydelnik:

I appreciate getting the perspective you have on the relationship between Israel and the Church.

Answer: At 8:57 mins

Summary:

Israel started with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and has existed since then. In the first century, the church has not yet formed and it started after Pentecost when the Holy Spirit fell on those who believed, Jews and Gentiles. The intersection of the Church and Israel are the remnant Jewish believers. The church will be taken away with the rapture and then God has a separate plan for Israel.

Acts 11

15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning. -nkjv

15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. -kjv

 A right heart is a NEW heart (Ezek. 36:26). It is not the heart with which a person is born—but another heart put in them by the Holy Spirit.
It is a heart which has new tastes, new joys, new sorrows, new desires, new hopes, new fears, new likes, new dislikes. It has new views about the soul, sin, God, Christ, salvation, the Bible, prayer, heaven, hell, the world, and holiness.

Ezekiel 36

26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh -nkjv

26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. -kjv

26 Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. -nasb

26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. -niv

2 Corinthians 5

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. -nkjv

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. -kjv

17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, this person is a new [g]creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. -nasb

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here! -niv
