from Presno, California. Here are your hosts for this episode,
(02:04):
mister Tim, Karen and Bobby.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
It's spitting on the table anyway, all right, So Tim Karen,
what are we talking about? What are we talking about today?
Speaker 6 (02:18):
So I had nothing.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
I'm like, look, well, we weren't even planning on really
getting together today.
Speaker 7 (02:24):
It was TB.
Speaker 8 (02:26):
It was determined d TBD not so gosh, darn it. Yeah, no,
I love it summer. So Karen, what is on your mind?
Speaker 7 (02:40):
Yeah? I can't even really. It was a long day,
and so I had this is the thought that I
came up with at eight nine o'clock this morning, and
now that is eight o'clock at night, kind of a
little spent a little more spent than I was. And
I thought about it. But so I am currently teaching
(03:03):
junior church at church, and so that.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Would be at Life Baptist Church of Rosmo, so.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
Uh so for junior Church, it's going to be anyone
fourth through sixth grade. And this was something that came
up and I and I really think the kids kind
of got something out of it. And it was funny
because this is a verse that I will will start
in Romans. But these were verses that I knew, but
I hadn't really thought about it in the way a
(03:36):
child would think about it, or how how to explain
it simply. And I feel like sometimes like as adults
or even mature Christians, like we really try to make
things so complex or so deep or so you know,
and really like it.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
You just can be just what it is.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
Yeah, it can be just what it is, you know.
And and there are some complex things in these couple
of verses, and I kind of wanted to just get
your guys' thoughts on those. And you know, we can
go to the extreme of saying that they're actual literal
we can say depending on the version that you read
(04:12):
it in. That's another interesting one that I'll get into
as well. But so the verses I'm talking about, there's
a section in Romans and then Joshua is the follow
up to this. So Romans twelve one in two.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
You have your Bibles to.
Speaker 7 (04:32):
Romans twelve one in two and again verses that we've
all heard before, versus that we've all heard and probably know.
And I'm just curious how if one, if you guys
have heard these verses before, but two, how you've heard
them used and or applied them to your own lives.
So I will be reading out of the NIV and
(04:52):
will be truly uninspired version. But that's a whole another
thing that we can get into, maybe on the Poking Panda,
But okay, Romans twelve went into. Therefore, I urge you
brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer
your bodies as a living sacrifice. Holy, I'm pleasing to God,
(05:14):
this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform
to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by
the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able
to test and approve what God's will is, his good,
pleasing and perfect will. So these were memory versus when
we were in high school when we used to do us.
(05:38):
But the King James version you guys rocked. But so
I'm just I have you guys heard these verses before?
These verses that you're used to or that you've used
in your own personal lives anything.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Uh. Me, personally, they don't ring a bell. But the
hard part for me is that I never did memory
versus I never remembered anything. I barely remember to put
on underpants. But that's just me. I have more of
a generalized recollection when it comes to biblical things, which is,
I know, not the best way of doing it. But
(06:15):
you know, unfortunately my brain works in a very generalized sense.
The specifics are very hard for me. Like I can say, oh, yeah,
I know I've heard that before. I couldn't tell you
when I couldn't tell you where. I just know I've
heard it.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
Right right, Yeah, I mean I think I have heard
this while reading Romans.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
But you know, sometimes you read something you don't well yeah,
I mean I've read the entire Testament through a couple
of times. But yeah, but to have a sink in
or actually think about it, you know.
Speaker 7 (06:46):
All right, So first of all, this is Paul talking.
He's talking to the Roman Church, and Romans is such
an awesome book because it really is just like laying
down and breaking down our faith, you know, and he's
just really going back to basics and just kind of
(07:07):
every single chapter is just about new different parts of
our faith and different aspects of it. But therefore I
urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy,
to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, so that that
section there in view of God's mercy. Does anyone know
(07:28):
what the definition of mercy is or can you think
of the definition of what mercy is?
Speaker 5 (07:32):
Mercy to me is the idea of I get I know,
I'm confusing that with grace never mind, well.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
And those are those are the ones that usually are
synonymous with each other. Is that one is getting what
you don't deserve and not getting what you do deserve,
and so they really are.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
That's what I get confused on, which is which.
Speaker 7 (07:54):
Not getting what you do deserve is what mercy is?
Speaker 5 (07:56):
Is mercy? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (07:59):
And of course, but yeah, so in view of God's mercy,
in view of God giving you what you do, not
giving you what you.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
Do you deserve, punishment.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
Is the way Jesus in his death right, God is
eternal life. So because of that, where to offer our
bodies as living sacrifices. What do you think that means?
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (08:29):
It means to be obedient to God what he wants.
You know, what does a sacrifice mean? Because well, He
is the ultimate sacrifice.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
But what does it mean to be giving your body
as a living sacrifice? Because see I refer to Christ
as the living sacrifice. Right, So whenever somebody tries to
tell me, you know, what's what's what for, I would say,
you know, Christ is unique in fact in the sense
that he died and gave his body as as the
(08:58):
ultimate sacrifice, but then he resurrected, which means that sacrifice,
that sacrifice is living. It's continuous, the only living sacrifice
known to man, right, that is continually replenishing that that
sacrificeal that sacrificial blood that's needed to redeem us of
our of our damnation. Right right. So the idea of
(09:22):
saying that to use our bodies as a living sacrifice
kind of puts it on that pedestal of the sense
that we are to live our life the way that
Christ lived his life.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
Yeah, a living sacrifice. For me, When I think living sacrifice,
I think bloodshed, you know, because only living things have blood,
you know. But that's and so again, if you're explaining
this to a bunch of fourth graders, you know, they
just like what's going through.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
It?
Speaker 7 (09:58):
Like Isaac, you know. But so that's where I was like, Okay,
well for kids, like to break this down to kids
to kind of really get them to understand, like what
he's saying here is that you know? And why does
he say offer your bodies off? Your bodies as a
(10:19):
living sacrifice.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Don't basically don't taint your bodies? Can I can I
offer you the So I would like to use the
message as a as a springboard for comparison because it
is a very I don't want to say dumped down
because that's not.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Nice, but it's them in this case. The message to
me was not dumbed down, actually almost and that that
was kind of going to be the second part because
I was going.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
Yeah, so I liked the message because.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
All right, read it first one and two.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Verses one and two, from start to finish, that says, so,
here's what I want you to do. God helping you
take your every day, ordinary life, if you're sleeping, eating,
going to work and walking around life and place it
before God as an offering. Embracing what God has done
for you is the best thing that you can do.
(11:14):
For him. Don't become so well adjusted to your culture
that you fit it, that you fit into it without
even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be
changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what He wants
from you and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture
(11:37):
around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity,
God brings the best out of you, developing well formed
maturity in you.
Speaker 9 (11:51):
That's from the message. That's from the message. So you
notice the difference. And me, it's almost like a devotional
in a sense, right.
Speaker 7 (12:03):
Well, when I really do think that that's what the
message is kind of meant more to be. Again, the
message is a paraphrase.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
Which is the third part about that is that they
do paraphrase.
Speaker 7 (12:14):
Ye can get lost in translation as far as well.
Speaker 5 (12:19):
Yeah, and that's why I like to I use I
like to use the message to springboard because it gives me,
like to use it well to give one. You know,
it's like the you've got the King James, which is
the thou, the thy then whatevers and then and those
that's hard to understand, and then you've got the message
(12:41):
which is designed for the most simplistic understanding. Right, And
so then you've got these others in the series. So
I prefer CSB, so I like to use that one.
And then so it's like New King James CSB and
then the message or they're kind of the three.
Speaker 7 (12:58):
That I like to yeah, Sam and nuking James n
I V.
Speaker 6 (13:03):
I mean, can you imagine if we had to actually
read the original text in the manuscripts.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
The manuscripts I don't speak Arabic, James is hard to understand.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Yeah, yeah, And that's not to get if I'm too
big of a bunny trail, But do you know, like
what do you what are your guys' thoughts on different
versions of the Bible, Like do you feel like there's
care needs to be taken there? Do you feel like
it's you know, whatever, the.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
Hard part is, yeah, yes and no. So for me,
the difficulty is translation versus supplication or versus like substituting. Right,
So my biggest issue that the hardest part is switching
out a word for better understanding versus switching out a
(13:53):
word to change the meaning. And there's there that can
be that could even happen inadvertently, right, So that's why
you always want to not maliciously, but but again through
translation it could you know, that's the hard part of
you because think about this, you're translating from Hebrew or
Greek to English of the old World English to a
(14:18):
more contemporary English. That the three different translations you could take,
and I mean it's so A good example to me
would be the first version of whatever the text is
says green, right, the second and that's the Hebrew word
for green, right, So then it's translated into the original English,
(14:44):
and the original English, you know, say that they're the reference.
They say vermuth, right, say, because it's like the color
of vermuth or whatever. Right. Well, then the third translation
would then change it to alcohol because even though so
(15:04):
they they both so vermouth and green coincide. Vermouth and
alcohol coincide, but alcohol and green are completely different. So
do you see. That's the biggest fear that I have
is that, And I obviously this is an extreme just
so to kind of make the point, but there's always
that fear that you know, it's just like the idea
of love, right, love in Greek and in Hebrew, there's
(15:30):
many different words to represent the different kinds of love.
English only has one word, and so you know that
there's this there can be big confusion of you know,
Father's love versus the love of candy and making sure
you're communicating to different propitions of life. Yeah, and so
(15:52):
that's that's the only part where I kind of get,
like where the message I don't always hold to my
hat to it. You know, it's just more of like, okay, so.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
For your more understanding, and then you're comparing it to that.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
That's how I do it.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
Also, I uh, like, if I get if I want
to get serious to reading the Bible, I always pray
before and ask the Lord to help me understand what
I'm reading and the right way to do that, you know.
And now if I just am glancing at it, then
that's a little different. But Nuclear knuckleheads here says I
think that the Bible translations lead to King James eventually.
Speaker 7 (16:30):
Well, yeah, and it can be difficult, but it also
can be a stumbling book for non believers because it's
something they want to hold on to. It's something that
they want to say, you know, well that these aren't
actually the words of God because they've been Yeah, they've
been translated so many different times to where it's like
you know, we've taken the meaning and totally distorted it
(16:53):
and made it just kind of what makes us see.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
Which is just their idea, that's like their excuse, you know,
because I mean Christian believers are the same way. Because
remember Jack was saying how he's got family members who
say that if it's not King James version, it's not real.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
We had a piano player at our church that used.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
To be like that, Yeah, it has to be King James,
which is crazy because what do we know about King James.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Well, I don't know much about him, Like.
Speaker 7 (17:21):
He was a womanizer and not a believer, wasn't he?
Speaker 5 (17:26):
I don't believe that he So that's the thing is that,
you know, you could easily argue that his version was
skewed because it was you.
Speaker 7 (17:35):
Know, or you know, the argument being you know, like
if there was a section in there that he didn't like,
that his lifestyle was admitted. And so yeah, so I
feel like with it is a dangerous light to kind
of like walk to kind of a tight rope to walk.
And I think that as believers we have the Holy Spirit,
(17:58):
and so that is ultimately what are discerning factors. You know,
I'm reminded of one version that with the change of one,
with the omission or adding of one word, you change
the whole of John. A verse in the first chapter
(18:18):
of John where it says the word, uh, the Word
is with God, in the beginning was the Word and
the words, the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. And in the New Living it says, in
the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was a God. And so there's a
big difference there, you know.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Where it's no longer saying that it's one of the same,
but rather saying that it is an equal in comparison.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
Yeah, So that that's just kind of my little bunny
trail there where it's like because I do feel like
there's a lot of discussion too, we had about different versions.
But I also feel that if we are truly believers,
that we do have that gifted discernment where it's like
we can you know, if if something, if something is
tugging at our heart saying this isn't right, then chances
(19:06):
are that's the Holy Spirit telling you, you know, like, hey,
this is not what I the words I'm trying to
convey to you.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
So now getting back on topic, What was it about
this particular message and this passage in relationship to the
fourth through sixth grade that tug on your heart.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Well, it was we were finishing up Joshua, and Joshua
is coming to the end of his life, and he
is just trying to encourage the Israelite you know. Uh,
He's basically saying, my time is coming and I'm not
going to be here with you. I'm not going to
be able to show you the way anymore. I'm not
going to be able to you know, lead you. So
(19:46):
you're gonna have to start making decisions for yourself. And
and so the verse that kind of coincided with this
one that brought this one along is is that you know,
here we're talking about we're to give our bodies as
this living sacrifice, which is our true and proper worship.
Don't conform to this world, be transformed. So and then
(20:10):
in Joshua the versus Joshua twenty four fourteen I believe,
yeah fourteen.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
I mean, while you're looking that up, you know, it says,
do not be conformed to this age this is the CSB,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. For
the longest time, I wonder what that meant, you know,
the renewing of your mind. But you know, we have
such sinful minds. A man in general has very sinful minds.
(20:42):
And so renewing your mind is reading the scriptures, praying
to God and he will start to change your mind.
Speaker 5 (20:53):
Like yeah, but I mean going back to the message
it's talking about. The renewing of your mind is not
succumbing to the culture, right, because it says when you
succumb to the culture, you become lazy, you become complacent,
you become a part of the fold. And it's telling
you to break away from that, right, and the only
(21:14):
way you can break away is to renew to Basically,
it's like unteach what you've taught and learn something new.
Speaker 7 (21:21):
Well, it's Paul says it in Second Corinthians five seventeen.
He says, if anyone being Christ, he's a new creation.
Old things are passed away. Behold, all things are made new.
And so basically he's saying this is like you. And
you know he'll go on to say and other different version, different.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Past.
Speaker 7 (21:42):
He says, you know, put off the old man, you know,
put off the old way, put on Christ, you know,
and so I think that that's what it's saying. But
so what brought all of that along was in Joshua,
he's giving this final farewell speech of basically like, you
know my time's coming. It's you know, I'm not going
to be there for long. And so in Joshua twenty
(22:02):
four fourteen, he says, now fear the Lord and serve
him faith with all faithfulness, throw away the gods your
ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates river and in Egypt, and
serve the Lord. But if serving the Lord seems undesirable
to you, then choose for yourselves to stay whom you
will serve, whether the god's your ancestors serves beyond the
Euphrates or the gods of the Amrits and whose lands
(22:24):
you are living. But as for me and my household,
we will serve the Lord. And so again versus you
know that last part, especially as for me and my
house we will serve the Lord, you know versus that
we all know and stuff. But there's a lot of
backstory to that, And in verse fifteen that just really
really stuck out to me because it says, but if
serving the Lord seems undesirable, to you. And in Romans,
(22:52):
what is or what is our what is serving the Lord?
Offering your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable,
which is reasonable act of service. And so when you
put the two together, if doing that sounds undesirable to you.
Speaker 5 (23:07):
Then what's the point.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
What are you left with? Serving the gods of these
the gods beyond the euphrates of the Emirates and.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Which basically means that you know the gods of the world.
Speaker 7 (23:19):
Yeah, exactly. And so the challenge for the kids was that,
you know, they had really up to this point, they
had we had gone through the whole Book of Joshua,
so that they really got to know Joshua well and
all the things that he had accomplished, all the things
that the Lord did through him and stuff. And here
it's that final challenge of just like, you know, he's
(23:40):
pleading with the people, and he's like, you've seen what
God has done, You've seen where he's brought us. So
you've seen the wolves of Jericho fall down, You've seen
all of these things. Yet you know you're toying with
the idea of other gods. You're toying with the idea
of marrying into these other culture and you know all
(24:01):
of these things. Even though you've seen all of these things,
he says, you know, turn away from those, throw throw
them away, and serve the Lord. But if serving the
Lord seems undesirable for you, then choose for yourselves to
stay whom He will serve. There's another part in First Kings.
I believe when Elijah, I just get Elijah and Elisha.
(24:23):
But where Elijah is with the prophets of bail and
and it's when you know they are trying to the
prophets of Bail are trying to get Bail to consume
the altar, you know, and stuff. And Elijah challenges the people.
Then he says, you know, choose to say whom we're
going to serve. If Bail is God, then follow him.
(24:44):
If God is God, follow him. But how long will
you serve two masters? You know?
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Well, you know what? And if you read further down
in Joshua, it says here that the people replied to
his requests. He said, we will certainly not abandoned the
Lord to worship other gods. Right, and they talk about
how what God has done for them, But then turn
the page and judge it. Well, not only that, but
Joshua replied to the people, he says, you will not
(25:11):
be able to worship Yahweh because he is a holy god.
He's a jealous god. He will not remove your trans
your transgressions and sins. If you abandon the Lord and
worship foreign gods, he will turn against you, harm you,
and completely destroy you after he has been good to you. Right,
(25:32):
And then the people respond with no, no, no, the
sucking to be us. We will worship the Lord. Right.
He says that you are witnessed against yourselves, and yourselves
have chosen to worship Yahweh. And he's basically saying, Okay,
this is it. You're making this decree, you're making you're
putting it on paper, you're putting it in stone. You're
not going to turn against God. And then of course
(25:53):
what happens. You want your pagan gods or you want
the ultimate.
Speaker 7 (25:57):
Yeah. So that that was just kind of something that
was really late on my heart. And it's weird this
morning because I was at work and you had asked
for a topic, and for some reason, this one just
really came to mind. And the Lord, by the way,
the Lord is just like you know, like this this
is what you guys just talk about and so, but
(26:18):
going back to Romans twelve, just that idea of our
our form of worship is being that loving sacrifice. Verse
two is a big one. And I feel like, especially
I'm actually kind of surprised that we haven't gotten in
verse two, like and all the things that has happened
in the last year, but do not conform to the
pattern in this world, but be transferred by the renewing
(26:38):
of your mind, and you'll be able to test and
approve what God's will is, his good, pleasing and perfect will.
And that to me is a promise. And what I
was telling you guys in the text was, you know,
this is something we've talked about before where it's like,
how do we know what God's will is? You know,
(26:59):
like how we're constantly wondering, you know, we're constantly saying
I want, I want, you know, I just want God's
will in this you right, and we say it without
really even knowing what it means to request that or
to really truly want it, but then also not knowing
that we have the ability to know it, you know,
And this this verse tells us, then you will. So
(27:21):
it's it's a cause and effect. Don't don't be conformed
to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of
your mind. Like I said, and you know that anyone
who's in Christ is a new creation. Then you'll be
able to test and to prove what God's will is
is good and pleasing, perfect will, and that's your your
You're constantly paraphrasing this and saying you know like and
(27:45):
without even really realizing it, like when you say you know,
when you're so in tune with God, when your relationship
really is where it needs to be, You're able. You
don't have to ask what God's will is because you
already know you know. And this is just kind of
the set back set up because if we're if our
(28:05):
minds are transformed, if we have the mind of Christ,
if we're like minded like Christ, then then we can
know what the will of God is. And yet we're
constantly seeking the will of God, you know, it's just like, well,
seek no more. You can know, you know, like, but
the challenges is that there's there's a there's a clause
(28:26):
you know, where it's like there's a there's a way
to get there, but oftentimes that's not where we are
and so that's why we always say, oh, I wish it,
you know, I'm just looking for God's will or I'm
just trying to you know, because we aren't. And that right,
so what we haven't renewed to our mind, we haven't. Yes,
we're new creation, but so often instead of you know,
we like to put on our old clothes instead of
(28:48):
our new clothes, you know, And so we have that
opportunity to experience it, but we're we're denying ourselves that opportunity.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
I think every day.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
I mean there's you know, you could say, well, what specifically,
Lord is your will for me on this topic or
this issue the subject.
Speaker 7 (29:08):
You know, like it really cuts to the cuts to
the core as far as like saying, we kind of
what's going on now? Don't become so well adjusted to
your culture that you fit into it without even thinking.
So it's second nature your culture, the thing the world
is second nature.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
Well, and that's the thing the hard part, you know,
when I look at it, I think of a puzzle
piece and imagine that you just fit right into the
missing piece of the world, and you just fit perfectly.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
M hm, right, you know where else we fit perfectly
and you fit perfectly. Well is during lunchtime you fit perfectly.
Speaker 7 (29:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Straw Hat Pizza Bar and Grille.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
That's right, everybody.
Speaker 6 (29:50):
If you want a good lunch in the Fresne Clovis area,
get to Clovis, California, where you could get a straw
Hat Pizza Bar and girl a great deal on pizza
from Monday through Friday from eleven am to three pm.
You get one topping pizza with a drink for only
six ninety nine. That's a really good deal around here.
(30:14):
And you could order from your phone at five five
nine three two three one three zero zero. That's five
five nine three two three thirteen hundred. They are located
at eighty Westshaw Avenue, right here next to Fresno in Clovis, California.
You could also order off the time we have this morning,
(30:36):
so make sure you go and get some lunch. It
sounds good to me some pizza, all right. Well, we
will see you guys tomorrow morning for Bobby's Crazy News,

going to be exciting. So be in this world, but
not of this world, Jessica, take it away.
Speaker 4 (31:04):

keeping your body pure and using it as a temple
for the Holy Spirit. I mean, I know I'm just
a humanoid, but I believe that is what the Bible
means by that.

Probably not easy to do though, no, it's not.

(02:04):
mister Tim, Karen and Bobby.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
It's spitting on the table anyway, all right, So Tim Karen,
what are we talking about? What are we talking about today?
Speaker 6 (02:18):
So I had nothing.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
I'm like, look, well, we weren't even planning on really
getting together today.
Speaker 7 (02:24):
It was TB.
Speaker 8 (02:26):
It was determined d TBD not so gosh, darn it. Yeah, no,
I love it summer. So Karen, what is on your mind?
Speaker 7 (02:40):
Yeah? I can't even really. It was a long day,
and so I had this is the thought that I
came up with at eight nine o'clock this morning, and
now that is eight o'clock at night, kind of a
little spent a little more spent than I was. And
I thought about it. But so I am currently teaching
(03:03):
junior church at church, and so that.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Would be at Life Baptist Church of Rosmo, so.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
Uh so for junior Church, it's going to be anyone
fourth through sixth grade. And this was something that came
up and I and I really think the kids kind
of got something out of it. And it was funny
because this is a verse that I will will start
in Romans. But these were verses that I knew, but
I hadn't really thought about it in the way a
(03:36):
child would think about it, or how how to explain
it simply. And I feel like sometimes like as adults
or even mature Christians, like we really try to make
things so complex or so deep or so you know,
and really like it.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
You just can be just what it is.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
Yeah, it can be just what it is, you know.
And and there are some complex things in these couple
of verses, and I kind of wanted to just get
your guys' thoughts on those. And you know, we can
go to the extreme of saying that they're actual literal
we can say depending on the version that you read
(04:12):
it in. That's another interesting one that I'll get into
as well. But so the verses I'm talking about, there's
a section in Romans and then Joshua is the follow
up to this. So Romans twelve one in two.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
You have your Bibles to.
Speaker 7 (04:32):
Romans twelve one in two and again verses that we've
all heard before, versus that we've all heard and probably know.
And I'm just curious how if one, if you guys
have heard these verses before, but two, how you've heard
them used and or applied them to your own lives.
So I will be reading out of the NIV and
(04:52):
will be truly uninspired version. But that's a whole another
thing that we can get into, maybe on the Poking Panda,
But okay, Romans twelve went into. Therefore, I urge you
brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer
your bodies as a living sacrifice. Holy, I'm pleasing to God,
(05:14):
this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform
to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by
the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able
to test and approve what God's will is, his good,
pleasing and perfect will. So these were memory versus when
we were in high school when we used to do us.
(05:38):
But the King James version you guys rocked. But so
I'm just I have you guys heard these verses before?
These verses that you're used to or that you've used
in your own personal lives anything.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Uh. Me, personally, they don't ring a bell. But the
hard part for me is that I never did memory
versus I never remembered anything. I barely remember to put
on underpants. But that's just me. I have more of
a generalized recollection when it comes to biblical things, which is,
I know, not the best way of doing it. But
(06:15):
you know, unfortunately my brain works in a very generalized sense.
The specifics are very hard for me. Like I can say, oh, yeah,
I know I've heard that before. I couldn't tell you
when I couldn't tell you where. I just know I've
heard it.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
Right right, Yeah, I mean I think I have heard
this while reading Romans.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
But you know, sometimes you read something you don't well yeah,
I mean I've read the entire Testament through a couple
of times. But yeah, but to have a sink in
or actually think about it, you know.
Speaker 7 (06:46):
All right, So first of all, this is Paul talking.
He's talking to the Roman Church, and Romans is such
an awesome book because it really is just like laying
down and breaking down our faith, you know, and he's
just really going back to basics and just kind of
(07:07):
every single chapter is just about new different parts of
our faith and different aspects of it. But therefore I
urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy,
to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, so that that
section there in view of God's mercy. Does anyone know
(07:28):
what the definition of mercy is or can you think
of the definition of what mercy is?
Speaker 5 (07:32):
Mercy to me is the idea of I get I know,
I'm confusing that with grace never mind, well.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
And those are those are the ones that usually are
synonymous with each other. Is that one is getting what
you don't deserve and not getting what you do deserve,
and so they really are.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
That's what I get confused on, which is which.
Speaker 7 (07:54):
Not getting what you do deserve is what mercy is?
Speaker 5 (07:56):
Is mercy? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (07:59):
And of course, but yeah, so in view of God's mercy,
in view of God giving you what you do, not
giving you what you.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
Do you deserve, punishment.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
Is the way Jesus in his death right, God is
eternal life. So because of that, where to offer our
bodies as living sacrifices. What do you think that means?
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (08:29):
It means to be obedient to God what he wants.
You know, what does a sacrifice mean? Because well, He
is the ultimate sacrifice.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
But what does it mean to be giving your body
as a living sacrifice? Because see I refer to Christ
as the living sacrifice. Right, So whenever somebody tries to
tell me, you know, what's what's what for, I would say,
you know, Christ is unique in fact in the sense
that he died and gave his body as as the
(08:58):
ultimate sacrifice, but then he resurrected, which means that sacrifice,
that sacrifice is living. It's continuous, the only living sacrifice
known to man, right, that is continually replenishing that that
sacrificeal that sacrificial blood that's needed to redeem us of
our of our damnation. Right right. So the idea of
(09:22):
saying that to use our bodies as a living sacrifice
kind of puts it on that pedestal of the sense
that we are to live our life the way that
Christ lived his life.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
Yeah, a living sacrifice. For me, When I think living sacrifice,
I think bloodshed, you know, because only living things have blood,
you know. But that's and so again, if you're explaining
this to a bunch of fourth graders, you know, they
just like what's going through.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
It?
Speaker 7 (09:58):
Like Isaac, you know. But so that's where I was like, Okay,
well for kids, like to break this down to kids
to kind of really get them to understand, like what
he's saying here is that you know? And why does
he say offer your bodies off? Your bodies as a
(10:19):
living sacrifice.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Don't basically don't taint your bodies? Can I can I
offer you the So I would like to use the
message as a as a springboard for comparison because it
is a very I don't want to say dumped down
because that's not.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Nice, but it's them in this case. The message to
me was not dumbed down, actually almost and that that
was kind of going to be the second part because
I was going.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
Yeah, so I liked the message because.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
All right, read it first one and two.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Verses one and two, from start to finish, that says, so,
here's what I want you to do. God helping you
take your every day, ordinary life, if you're sleeping, eating,
going to work and walking around life and place it
before God as an offering. Embracing what God has done
for you is the best thing that you can do.
(11:14):
For him. Don't become so well adjusted to your culture
that you fit it, that you fit into it without
even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be
changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what He wants
from you and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture
(11:37):
around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity,
God brings the best out of you, developing well formed
maturity in you.
Speaker 9 (11:51):
That's from the message. That's from the message. So you
notice the difference. And me, it's almost like a devotional
in a sense, right.
Speaker 7 (12:03):
Well, when I really do think that that's what the
message is kind of meant more to be. Again, the
message is a paraphrase.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
Which is the third part about that is that they
do paraphrase.
Speaker 7 (12:14):
Ye can get lost in translation as far as well.
Speaker 5 (12:19):
Yeah, and that's why I like to I use I
like to use the message to springboard because it gives me,
like to use it well to give one. You know,
it's like the you've got the King James, which is
the thou, the thy then whatevers and then and those
that's hard to understand, and then you've got the message
(12:41):
which is designed for the most simplistic understanding. Right, And
so then you've got these others in the series. So
I prefer CSB, so I like to use that one.
And then so it's like New King James CSB and
then the message or they're kind of the three.
Speaker 7 (12:58):
That I like to yeah, Sam and nuking James n
I V.
Speaker 6 (13:03):
I mean, can you imagine if we had to actually
read the original text in the manuscripts.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
The manuscripts I don't speak Arabic, James is hard to understand.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Yeah, yeah, And that's not to get if I'm too
big of a bunny trail, But do you know, like
what do you what are your guys' thoughts on different
versions of the Bible, Like do you feel like there's
care needs to be taken there? Do you feel like
it's you know, whatever, the.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
Hard part is, yeah, yes and no. So for me,
the difficulty is translation versus supplication or versus like substituting. Right,
So my biggest issue that the hardest part is switching
out a word for better understanding versus switching out a
(13:53):
word to change the meaning. And there's there that can
be that could even happen inadvertently, right, So that's why
you always want to not maliciously, but but again through
translation it could you know, that's the hard part of
you because think about this, you're translating from Hebrew or
Greek to English of the old World English to a
(14:18):
more contemporary English. That the three different translations you could take,
and I mean it's so A good example to me
would be the first version of whatever the text is
says green, right, the second and that's the Hebrew word
for green, right, So then it's translated into the original English,
(14:44):
and the original English, you know, say that they're the reference.
They say vermuth, right, say, because it's like the color
of vermuth or whatever. Right. Well, then the third translation
would then change it to alcohol because even though so
(15:04):
they they both so vermouth and green coincide. Vermouth and
alcohol coincide, but alcohol and green are completely different. So
do you see. That's the biggest fear that I have
is that, And I obviously this is an extreme just
so to kind of make the point, but there's always
that fear that you know, it's just like the idea
of love, right, love in Greek and in Hebrew, there's
(15:30):
many different words to represent the different kinds of love.
English only has one word, and so you know that
there's this there can be big confusion of you know,
Father's love versus the love of candy and making sure
you're communicating to different propitions of life. Yeah, and so
(15:52):
that's that's the only part where I kind of get,
like where the message I don't always hold to my
hat to it. You know, it's just more of like, okay, so.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
For your more understanding, and then you're comparing it to that.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
That's how I do it.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
Also, I uh, like, if I get if I want
to get serious to reading the Bible, I always pray
before and ask the Lord to help me understand what
I'm reading and the right way to do that, you know.
And now if I just am glancing at it, then
that's a little different. But Nuclear knuckleheads here says I
think that the Bible translations lead to King James eventually.
Speaker 7 (16:30):
Well, yeah, and it can be difficult, but it also
can be a stumbling book for non believers because it's
something they want to hold on to. It's something that
they want to say, you know, well that these aren't
actually the words of God because they've been Yeah, they've
been translated so many different times to where it's like
you know, we've taken the meaning and totally distorted it
(16:53):
and made it just kind of what makes us see.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
Which is just their idea, that's like their excuse, you know,
because I mean Christian believers are the same way. Because
remember Jack was saying how he's got family members who
say that if it's not King James version, it's not real.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
We had a piano player at our church that used.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
To be like that, Yeah, it has to be King James,
which is crazy because what do we know about King James.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Well, I don't know much about him, Like.
Speaker 7 (17:21):
He was a womanizer and not a believer, wasn't he?
Speaker 5 (17:26):
I don't believe that he So that's the thing is that,
you know, you could easily argue that his version was
skewed because it was you.
Speaker 7 (17:35):
Know, or you know, the argument being you know, like
if there was a section in there that he didn't like,
that his lifestyle was admitted. And so yeah, so I
feel like with it is a dangerous light to kind
of like walk to kind of a tight rope to walk.
And I think that as believers we have the Holy Spirit,
(17:58):
and so that is ultimately what are discerning factors. You know,
I'm reminded of one version that with the change of one,
with the omission or adding of one word, you change
the whole of John. A verse in the first chapter
(18:18):
of John where it says the word, uh, the Word
is with God, in the beginning was the Word and
the words, the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. And in the New Living it says, in
the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was a God. And so there's a
big difference there, you know.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Where it's no longer saying that it's one of the same,
but rather saying that it is an equal in comparison.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
Yeah, So that that's just kind of my little bunny
trail there where it's like because I do feel like
there's a lot of discussion too, we had about different versions.
But I also feel that if we are truly believers,
that we do have that gifted discernment where it's like
we can you know, if if something, if something is
tugging at our heart saying this isn't right, then chances
(19:06):
are that's the Holy Spirit telling you, you know, like, hey,
this is not what I the words I'm trying to
convey to you.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
So now getting back on topic, What was it about
this particular message and this passage in relationship to the
fourth through sixth grade that tug on your heart.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Well, it was we were finishing up Joshua, and Joshua
is coming to the end of his life, and he
is just trying to encourage the Israelite you know. Uh,
He's basically saying, my time is coming and I'm not
going to be here with you. I'm not going to
be able to show you the way anymore. I'm not
going to be able to you know, lead you. So
(19:46):
you're gonna have to start making decisions for yourself. And
and so the verse that kind of coincided with this
one that brought this one along is is that you know,
here we're talking about we're to give our bodies as
this living sacrifice, which is our true and proper worship.
Don't conform to this world, be transformed. So and then
(20:10):
in Joshua the versus Joshua twenty four fourteen I believe,
yeah fourteen.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
I mean, while you're looking that up, you know, it says,
do not be conformed to this age this is the CSB,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. For
the longest time, I wonder what that meant, you know,
the renewing of your mind. But you know, we have
such sinful minds. A man in general has very sinful minds.
(20:42):
And so renewing your mind is reading the scriptures, praying
to God and he will start to change your mind.
Speaker 5 (20:53):
Like yeah, but I mean going back to the message
it's talking about. The renewing of your mind is not
succumbing to the culture, right, because it says when you
succumb to the culture, you become lazy, you become complacent,
you become a part of the fold. And it's telling
you to break away from that, right, and the only
(21:14):
way you can break away is to renew to Basically,
it's like unteach what you've taught and learn something new.
Speaker 7 (21:21):
Well, it's Paul says it in Second Corinthians five seventeen.
He says, if anyone being Christ, he's a new creation.
Old things are passed away. Behold, all things are made new.
And so basically he's saying this is like you. And
you know he'll go on to say and other different version, different.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Past.
Speaker 7 (21:42):
He says, you know, put off the old man, you know,
put off the old way, put on Christ, you know,
and so I think that that's what it's saying. But
so what brought all of that along was in Joshua,
he's giving this final farewell speech of basically like, you
know my time's coming. It's you know, I'm not going
to be there for long. And so in Joshua twenty
(22:02):
four fourteen, he says, now fear the Lord and serve
him faith with all faithfulness, throw away the gods your
ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates river and in Egypt, and
serve the Lord. But if serving the Lord seems undesirable
to you, then choose for yourselves to stay whom you
will serve, whether the god's your ancestors serves beyond the
Euphrates or the gods of the Amrits and whose lands
(22:24):
you are living. But as for me and my household,
we will serve the Lord. And so again versus you
know that last part, especially as for me and my
house we will serve the Lord, you know versus that
we all know and stuff. But there's a lot of
backstory to that, And in verse fifteen that just really
really stuck out to me because it says, but if
serving the Lord seems undesirable, to you. And in Romans,
(22:52):
what is or what is our what is serving the Lord?
Offering your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable,
which is reasonable act of service. And so when you
put the two together, if doing that sounds undesirable to you.
Speaker 5 (23:07):
Then what's the point.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
What are you left with? Serving the gods of these
the gods beyond the euphrates of the Emirates and.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Which basically means that you know the gods of the world.
Speaker 7 (23:19):
Yeah, exactly. And so the challenge for the kids was that,
you know, they had really up to this point, they
had we had gone through the whole Book of Joshua,
so that they really got to know Joshua well and
all the things that he had accomplished, all the things
that the Lord did through him and stuff. And here
it's that final challenge of just like, you know, he's
(23:40):
pleading with the people, and he's like, you've seen what
God has done, You've seen where he's brought us. So
you've seen the wolves of Jericho fall down, You've seen
all of these things. Yet you know you're toying with
the idea of other gods. You're toying with the idea
of marrying into these other culture and you know all
(24:01):
of these things. Even though you've seen all of these things,
he says, you know, turn away from those, throw throw
them away, and serve the Lord. But if serving the
Lord seems undesirable for you, then choose for yourselves to
stay whom He will serve. There's another part in First Kings.
I believe when Elijah, I just get Elijah and Elisha.
(24:23):
But where Elijah is with the prophets of bail and
and it's when you know they are trying to the
prophets of Bail are trying to get Bail to consume
the altar, you know, and stuff. And Elijah challenges the people.
Then he says, you know, choose to say whom we're
going to serve. If Bail is God, then follow him.
(24:44):
If God is God, follow him. But how long will
you serve two masters? You know?
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Well, you know what? And if you read further down
in Joshua, it says here that the people replied to
his requests. He said, we will certainly not abandoned the
Lord to worship other gods. Right, and they talk about
how what God has done for them, But then turn
the page and judge it. Well, not only that, but
Joshua replied to the people, he says, you will not
(25:11):
be able to worship Yahweh because he is a holy god.
He's a jealous god. He will not remove your trans
your transgressions and sins. If you abandon the Lord and
worship foreign gods, he will turn against you, harm you,
and completely destroy you after he has been good to you. Right,
(25:32):
And then the people respond with no, no, no, the
sucking to be us. We will worship the Lord. Right.
He says that you are witnessed against yourselves, and yourselves
have chosen to worship Yahweh. And he's basically saying, Okay,
this is it. You're making this decree, you're making you're
putting it on paper, you're putting it in stone. You're
not going to turn against God. And then of course
(25:53):
what happens. You want your pagan gods or you want
the ultimate.
Speaker 7 (25:57):
Yeah. So that that was just kind of something that
was really late on my heart. And it's weird this
morning because I was at work and you had asked
for a topic, and for some reason, this one just
really came to mind. And the Lord, by the way,
the Lord is just like you know, like this this
is what you guys just talk about and so, but
(26:18):
going back to Romans twelve, just that idea of our
our form of worship is being that loving sacrifice. Verse
two is a big one. And I feel like, especially
I'm actually kind of surprised that we haven't gotten in
verse two, like and all the things that has happened
in the last year, but do not conform to the
pattern in this world, but be transferred by the renewing
(26:38):
of your mind, and you'll be able to test and
approve what God's will is, his good, pleasing and perfect will.
And that to me is a promise. And what I
was telling you guys in the text was, you know,
this is something we've talked about before where it's like,
how do we know what God's will is? You know,
(26:59):
like how we're constantly wondering, you know, we're constantly saying
I want, I want, you know, I just want God's
will in this you right, and we say it without
really even knowing what it means to request that or
to really truly want it, but then also not knowing
that we have the ability to know it, you know,
And this this verse tells us, then you will. So
(27:21):
it's it's a cause and effect. Don't don't be conformed
to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of
your mind. Like I said, and you know that anyone
who's in Christ is a new creation. Then you'll be
able to test and to prove what God's will is
is good and pleasing, perfect will, and that's your your
You're constantly paraphrasing this and saying you know like and
(27:45):
without even really realizing it, like when you say you know,
when you're so in tune with God, when your relationship
really is where it needs to be, You're able. You
don't have to ask what God's will is because you
already know you know. And this is just kind of
the set back set up because if we're if our
(28:05):
minds are transformed, if we have the mind of Christ,
if we're like minded like Christ, then then we can
know what the will of God is. And yet we're
constantly seeking the will of God, you know, it's just like, well,
seek no more. You can know, you know, like, but
the challenges is that there's there's a there's a clause
(28:26):
you know, where it's like there's a there's a way
to get there, but oftentimes that's not where we are
and so that's why we always say, oh, I wish it,
you know, I'm just looking for God's will or I'm
just trying to you know, because we aren't. And that right,
so what we haven't renewed to our mind, we haven't. Yes,
we're new creation, but so often instead of you know,
we like to put on our old clothes instead of
(28:48):
our new clothes, you know, And so we have that
opportunity to experience it, but we're we're denying ourselves that opportunity.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
I think every day.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
I mean there's you know, you could say, well, what specifically,
Lord is your will for me on this topic or
this issue the subject.
Speaker 7 (29:08):
You know, like it really cuts to the cuts to
the core as far as like saying, we kind of
what's going on now? Don't become so well adjusted to
your culture that you fit into it without even thinking.
So it's second nature your culture, the thing the world
is second nature.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
Well, and that's the thing the hard part, you know,
when I look at it, I think of a puzzle
piece and imagine that you just fit right into the
missing piece of the world, and you just fit perfectly.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
M hm, right, you know where else we fit perfectly
and you fit perfectly. Well is during lunchtime you fit perfectly.
Speaker 7 (29:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
