1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,880
Steve Webb: Don't let anybody
tell you that God doesn't have a

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:03,600
sense of humor.

3
00:00:11,250 --> 00:00:13,680
If you're looking for the
Lifespring!, One Year Bible,

4
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:18,180
you've come to the right place
podcasting since 2004. I am your

5
00:00:18,180 --> 00:00:22,170
OG Godcaster. Steve Webb. This
is the daily podcast where we

6
00:00:22,170 --> 00:00:25,800
are reading through the Bible in
a year. I'm glad you're here

7
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,790
today. It's history Tuesday, and
we'll read first Kings 14

8
00:00:29,790 --> 00:00:34,170
through 18. I'm calling the
episode fire from heaven. Before

9
00:00:34,170 --> 00:00:38,220
we begin, let's pray. Our
heavenly Father, Lord, we thank

10
00:00:38,220 --> 00:00:42,000
You for Your Word. We thank you
for loving us. We thank you for

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,150
calling us and I pray, Lord,
that You would teach us today as

12
00:00:45,150 --> 00:00:51,390
we read and pray this in Jesus
name. Amen. Okay, let's begin.

13
00:00:54,390 --> 00:00:59,730
First Kings chapter 14. At that
time, Elijah, the son of

14
00:00:59,730 --> 00:01:04,890
Jeroboam became sick. Jeroboam
said to his wife, arise, now

15
00:01:04,890 --> 00:01:08,130
disguise yourself so that they
will not know that you are the

16
00:01:08,130 --> 00:01:12,720
wife of Jeroboam, and go to
Shiloh, behold, a Hydra. The

17
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,140
prophet is there who spoke
concerning me, that I would be

18
00:01:16,140 --> 00:01:20,580
king over this people take 10
loaves with you some cakes and a

19
00:01:20,580 --> 00:01:24,480
jar of honey and go to him, he
will tell you what will happen

20
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,920
to the boy, Jeroboam his wife
did so and arose and went to

21
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,840
Shiloh and came to the house of
a hija. Now a hija could not see

22
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,920
for his eyes were dim because of
his age. Now the Lord had said

23
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,090
to a hija, Behold, the wife of
Jeroboam is coming to inquire of

24
00:01:42,090 --> 00:01:46,170
you concerning her son, for he
is sick, you shall say thus and

25
00:01:46,170 --> 00:01:49,560
thus to her, for it will be when
she arrives, that she will

26
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:54,060
pretend to be another woman.
When a hydra heard the sound of

27
00:01:54,060 --> 00:01:57,180
her feet coming in the doorway,
he said, Come in wife of

28
00:01:57,180 --> 00:02:01,170
Jeroboam, Why do you pretend to
be another woman, for I am sent

29
00:02:01,170 --> 00:02:06,270
to you with a harsh message. Go
say to Jeroboam, Thus says the

30
00:02:06,270 --> 00:02:10,050
Lord God of Israel, because I
exalted you from among the

31
00:02:10,050 --> 00:02:13,830
people and made you leader over
my people Israel, and tore the

32
00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:17,850
kingdom away from the house of
David, and gave it to you. Yet

33
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,240
you have not been like my
servant David, who kept my

34
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,050
commandments, and who followed
me with all his heart to do only

35
00:02:25,050 --> 00:02:28,770
that which was right in my
sight. You also have done more

36
00:02:28,770 --> 00:02:31,950
evil than all who were before
you, and have gone and made for

37
00:02:31,950 --> 00:02:35,790
yourself other gods and Moulton
images, to provoke me to anger

38
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,200
and have cast me behind your
back. Therefore, behold, I am

39
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,800
bringing calamity on the house
of Jeroboam. And we'll cut off

40
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,210
from Jeroboam every male person,
both bond and free in Israel.

41
00:02:48,450 --> 00:02:52,290
And I will make a clean sweep of
the house of Jeroboam. As one

42
00:02:52,290 --> 00:02:56,340
sweeps away dung until it is all
gone. Any one belonging to

43
00:02:56,340 --> 00:02:57,480
Jeroboam who dies in the city,
the dogs will eat, and he who

44
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,890
dies in the field, the birds of
the heavens will eat, for the

45
00:03:01,980 --> 00:03:08,760
Lord has spoken it. Now you
Arise, go to your house, when

46
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,750
your feet enter the city, the
child will die. all Israel shall

47
00:03:12,750 --> 00:03:17,010
mourn for him and bury him. For
he alone of Jeroboam, his family

48
00:03:17,010 --> 00:03:21,120
will come to the grave, because
in him something good was found

49
00:03:21,150 --> 00:03:25,560
toward the Lord God of Israel in
the house of Jeroboam. Moreover,

50
00:03:25,770 --> 00:03:29,160
the Lord will raise up for
himself a king over Israel, who

51
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,520
will cut off the house of
Jeroboam this day, and from now

52
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,780
on, for the Lord will strike
Israel as a read is shaking in

53
00:03:36,780 --> 00:03:40,260
the water, he will uproot Israel
from this good land which he

54
00:03:40,260 --> 00:03:43,050
gave to their fathers, and will
scatter them beyond the

55
00:03:43,050 --> 00:03:47,130
Euphrates River, because they
have made their Ashran provoking

56
00:03:47,130 --> 00:03:51,240
the Lord to anger, he will give
up Israel on account of the sins

57
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,140
of Jeroboam, which he committed,
and with which he made Israel to

58
00:03:55,140 --> 00:04:00,000
sin. Then Jeroboam his wife
arose and departed, and came to

59
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,020
Tirza. As she was entering the
threshold of the house, the

60
00:04:04,020 --> 00:04:08,220
child died, all Israel buried
him and mourn for Him according

61
00:04:08,220 --> 00:04:10,830
to the Word of the Lord, which
he spoke through his servant, a

62
00:04:10,830 --> 00:04:15,600
hija, the prophet. Now the rest
of the acts of Jeroboam, how he

63
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,050
made war and how he reigned,
behold, they are written in the

64
00:04:19,050 --> 00:04:22,380
book of the chronicles of the
kings of Israel, the time that

65
00:04:22,380 --> 00:04:26,520
Jeroboam reigned was 22 years,
and he slept with his fathers,

66
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:31,800
and named after his son reigned
in his place. Now Rehoboam, the

67
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:36,240
son of Solomon reigned in Judah.
Rehoboam was 41 years old when

68
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,380
he became king. And he reigned
17 years in Jerusalem, the city

69
00:04:40,380 --> 00:04:43,530
which the Lord had chosen from
all the tribes of Israel to put

70
00:04:43,530 --> 00:04:48,000
his name there. And his mother's
name was nema. The ammonite is

71
00:04:48,630 --> 00:04:51,720
Judah did evil in the sight of
the Lord, and they provoked him

72
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,810
to jealousy more than all that
their fathers had done with the

73
00:04:54,810 --> 00:04:58,290
sins which they committed, for
they also built for themselves

74
00:04:58,290 --> 00:05:02,370
high places and sacred pillars.
And ashram on every high hill

75
00:05:02,490 --> 00:05:06,930
and beneath every luxuriant
tree. There are also male called

76
00:05:06,930 --> 00:05:10,140
prostitutes in the land. They
did according to all the

77
00:05:10,140 --> 00:05:13,050
abominations of the nations
which the Lord dispossessed

78
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,130
before the sons of Israel. Now
it happened in the fifth year of

79
00:05:17,130 --> 00:05:20,730
King Rehoboam, that Shake Shack,
the king of Egypt came up

80
00:05:20,730 --> 00:05:24,660
against Jerusalem, he took away
the treasures of the house of

81
00:05:24,660 --> 00:05:27,810
the Lord and the treasures of
the kings house. And he took

82
00:05:27,810 --> 00:05:31,380
everything even taking all the
shields of gold which Solomon

83
00:05:31,380 --> 00:05:34,920
had made. So King Ray a bomb
made shields of bronze in their

84
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,070
place, and committed them to the
care of the commanders of the

85
00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:42,030
guard, who guarded the doorway
of the king's house. Then it

86
00:05:42,030 --> 00:05:44,790
happened as often as the king
entered the house of the Lord,

87
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,730
that the guards would carry them
and would bring them back into

88
00:05:47,730 --> 00:05:51,900
the guards room. Now the rest of
the acts of Rambo, um, and all

89
00:05:51,900 --> 00:05:54,390
that he did, are they not
written in the book of the

90
00:05:54,390 --> 00:05:57,810
chronicles of the kings of
Judah, there was war between

91
00:05:57,810 --> 00:06:01,320
Rehoboam and Jeroboam
continually. That Rayo bomb,

92
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,500
slept with his fathers, and was
buried with his father's in the

93
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:08,730
city of David, and his mother's
name was Nana, the M and itis.

94
00:06:09,210 --> 00:06:12,270
And a by Jim his son became king
in his place.

95
00:06:12,840 --> 00:06:18,540
First Kings chapter 15. Now in
the 18th year of King Jeroboam,

96
00:06:18,540 --> 00:06:22,380
the son of knee bat, a Biogen
became king over Judah, he

97
00:06:22,380 --> 00:06:24,870
reigned three years in
Jerusalem, and his mother's name

98
00:06:24,870 --> 00:06:28,590
was Monica, the daughter of a
bishop alum. He walked in all

99
00:06:28,590 --> 00:06:31,650
the sins of His Father, which he
had committed before him, and

100
00:06:31,650 --> 00:06:35,040
his heart was not wholly devoted
to the Lord his God, like the

101
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,820
heart of his father David. But
for David's sake, the Lord his

102
00:06:38,820 --> 00:06:42,360
God gave him a lamp in
Jerusalem, to raise up his son

103
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,230
after him, and to establish
Jerusalem, because David did

104
00:06:46,230 --> 00:06:49,080
what was right in the sight of
the Lord, and had not turned

105
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,780
aside from anything that he
commanded him all the days of

106
00:06:51,780 --> 00:06:56,310
his life, except in the case of
Uriah the Hittite. There was war

107
00:06:56,310 --> 00:07:00,720
between Rehoboam and Jeroboam
all the days of his life. Now

108
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,020
the rest of the acts of evasion
and all that he did, are they

109
00:07:04,020 --> 00:07:06,480
not written in the book of the
chronicles of the kings of

110
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:11,790
Judah, and there was war between
a Belgium and Jeroboam and

111
00:07:11,790 --> 00:07:14,490
Dubai, Jim slept with his
fathers and they buried him in

112
00:07:14,490 --> 00:07:19,410
the city of David, and ASA, his
son became king in his place. So

113
00:07:19,410 --> 00:07:23,250
in the 20th year of Jeroboam,
the king of Israel, Asa began to

114
00:07:23,250 --> 00:07:27,510
reign as king of Judah. He
reigned 41 years in Jerusalem,

115
00:07:27,780 --> 00:07:30,480
and his mother's name was may
occur the daughter of a

116
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,830
Micheline ASA did what was right
in the sight of the Lord like

117
00:07:34,830 --> 00:07:38,730
David his father, he also put
away the male called prostitutes

118
00:07:38,730 --> 00:07:41,790
from the land and removed all
the idols which his father's had

119
00:07:41,790 --> 00:07:45,810
made. He also removed may occur
his mother from being queen

120
00:07:45,810 --> 00:07:50,070
mother, because she had made a
horrid image as an Astra and ASA

121
00:07:50,070 --> 00:07:53,010
cut down her horrid image and
burned it at the brook of

122
00:07:53,010 --> 00:07:57,450
Kidron, but the high places were
not taken away. Nevertheless,

123
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,450
the heart of Asa was wholly
devoted to the Lord all his

124
00:08:00,450 --> 00:08:04,290
days. He brought into the house
of the Lord, the dedicated

125
00:08:04,290 --> 00:08:08,190
things of his father and his own
dedicated things silver and gold

126
00:08:08,190 --> 00:08:12,930
and utensils. Now there was war
between ASA and Baasha, king of

127
00:08:12,930 --> 00:08:17,190
Israel all their days, they Isha
king of Israel went up against

128
00:08:17,190 --> 00:08:20,490
Judah and fortified Rhema in
order to prevent anyone from

129
00:08:20,490 --> 00:08:25,800
going out, or coming in to Asa
king of Judah. Then ASA took all

130
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,320
the silver and the gold which
were left in the treasuries of

131
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,500
the house of the Lord and the
treasuries of the king's house,

132
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,800
and delivered them into the
hands of his servants. And King

133
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,400
ASA sent them to Ben Hey dad,
the son of tab Rehman, the son

134
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,090
of heezy, in the King of Aram
who lived in Damascus, saying,

135
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,510
Let there be a treaty between
you and me and is between my

136
00:08:45,510 --> 00:08:48,990
father and your father, Behold,
I have sent you a present of

137
00:08:48,990 --> 00:08:53,280
silver and gold. Go break your
treaty with Basha king of Israel

138
00:08:53,310 --> 00:08:57,270
so that he will withdraw from
me. So Ben, Hey, Dad, listen to

139
00:08:57,270 --> 00:09:00,480
King ASA and sent the commanders
of his armies against the cities

140
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:05,370
of Israel and Concord, iGen Dan,
Abel, Beth Baca, and all kick

141
00:09:05,370 --> 00:09:09,450
her off besides all the land of
NAFTA ally, when Bechet heard of

142
00:09:09,450 --> 00:09:13,530
it, he seized fortifying Rhema
and remained in tourism. Then

143
00:09:13,530 --> 00:09:17,850
King ASA made a proclamation to
all Judah, none was exempt, and

144
00:09:17,850 --> 00:09:21,030
they carried away the stones of
Rhema and its timber with which

145
00:09:21,030 --> 00:09:24,900
Bay Usha had built, and King ASA
built with them, Geebo of

146
00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:29,850
Benjamin and Mizpah now the rest
of all the acts of Asa and all

147
00:09:29,850 --> 00:09:33,210
his might and all that he did in
the cities which he built, are

148
00:09:33,210 --> 00:09:35,760
they not written in the book of
the chronicles of the kings of

149
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,450
Judah, but in the time of his
old age, he was diseased in his

150
00:09:39,450 --> 00:09:43,350
feet, and ASA slept with his
fathers, and was buried with his

151
00:09:43,350 --> 00:09:47,070
father's in the city of David
his father, and Jehoshaphat his

152
00:09:47,070 --> 00:09:52,320
son reigned in his place. Now,
in a dab, the son of Jeroboam

153
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,560
became king over Israel in the
second year of Asa, king of

154
00:09:55,560 --> 00:10:00,660
Judah, and he reigned over
Israel two years he did evil in

155
00:10:00,660 --> 00:10:04,050
the sight of the Lord and walked
in the way of his father and in

156
00:10:04,050 --> 00:10:08,070
his sin which he made Israel
sin. Then Basha, the son of a

157
00:10:08,070 --> 00:10:11,580
Hydra of the house of his car
conspired against him. And

158
00:10:11,580 --> 00:10:14,490
bashes struck him down at giveth
on which belonged to the

159
00:10:14,490 --> 00:10:17,820
Philistines while they dab and
all Israel were laying siege to

160
00:10:17,820 --> 00:10:21,720
give a THON. So Basha killed him
in the third year of Asa, king

161
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,890
of Judah and reigned in his
place. It came about as soon as

162
00:10:25,890 --> 00:10:30,300
he was king, he struck down all
the household of Jeroboam, he

163
00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:33,960
did not leave to Jeroboam any
persons alive until he had

164
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,350
destroyed them according to the
Word of the Lord, which he spoke

165
00:10:37,350 --> 00:10:40,530
by his servant, a hija, the
Shiloh night and because of the

166
00:10:40,530 --> 00:10:43,560
sins of Jeroboam, which he
sinned, and which made Israel

167
00:10:43,560 --> 00:10:47,490
sin, because of his provocation,
with which he provoked the Lord

168
00:10:47,490 --> 00:10:52,260
God of Israel to anger. Now the
rest of the acts of Nate app and

169
00:10:52,260 --> 00:10:54,930
all that he did, are they not
written in the book of the

170
00:10:54,930 --> 00:10:58,530
chronicles of the kings of
Israel, there was war between

171
00:10:58,530 --> 00:11:02,880
ASA and Baasha, king of Israel
all their days. In the third

172
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,810
year of Asa, king of Judah,
Basha, the son of a hija became

173
00:11:06,810 --> 00:11:12,540
king over all Israel at Tirza.
And rained 24 years. He did evil

174
00:11:12,540 --> 00:11:15,540
in the sight of the Lord and
walked in the way of Jeroboam

175
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,630
and in his sin which he made
Israel sin.

176
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:24,630
First Kings chapter 16. You
always word came to G who the

177
00:11:24,630 --> 00:11:29,340
son of an AI against Bay Usha
saying, because I exalted you

178
00:11:29,340 --> 00:11:32,850
out of the dust, and made you
Prince over my people Israel.

179
00:11:33,180 --> 00:11:36,360
And you have walked in the way
of Jeroboam, and have made my

180
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,260
people Israel to sin, to provoke
me to anger with their sins.

181
00:11:40,530 --> 00:11:44,730
Behold, I will utterly sweep
away they usher in his house,

182
00:11:45,030 --> 00:11:48,150
and I will make your house like
the house of Jeroboam, the son

183
00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:51,870
of the bat, the dogs will eat
bashes descendants who die in

184
00:11:51,870 --> 00:11:55,590
the city and he who dies of his
in the field, the birds of the

185
00:11:55,590 --> 00:11:59,460
sky will eat. Now the rest of
the acts of Basha and what he

186
00:11:59,460 --> 00:12:02,580
did and his might, aren't they
written in the book of the

187
00:12:02,580 --> 00:12:06,180
chronicles of the kings of
Israel, Basha slept with his

188
00:12:06,180 --> 00:12:10,200
fathers and was buried in Tirza.
And Isla, his son reigned in his

189
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,430
place. Moreover, yeah, always
word came by the prophet Ji, who

190
00:12:14,430 --> 00:12:17,820
the son of hunay 10th against
Bashar and against his house,

191
00:12:17,970 --> 00:12:21,240
both because of all the evil
that he did in Yawei site to

192
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,270
provoke him to anger with the
work of his hands in being like

193
00:12:24,270 --> 00:12:28,140
the house of Jeroboam, and
because he struck him. In the

194
00:12:28,170 --> 00:12:32,670
26th year of Asa, king of Judah
Isla, the son of Basha began to

195
00:12:32,670 --> 00:12:37,140
reign over Israel in Tirza. For
two years, his servant Zimride,

196
00:12:37,140 --> 00:12:40,980
captain of half of his chariots
conspired against him. Now, he

197
00:12:40,980 --> 00:12:44,670
was in tears, drinking himself
drunk in the house of Arza, who

198
00:12:44,670 --> 00:12:48,300
was over the household in Tirza.
And Zimmer, I went in and struck

199
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:52,320
him and killed him in the 27th
year of Asa, king of Judah, and

200
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,670
reigned in his place. When he
began to reign as soon as he sat

201
00:12:56,670 --> 00:13:00,360
on his throne, he attacked all
the house of Bay Usha, he didn't

202
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,660
leave him a single one who
urinates on a wall among his

203
00:13:03,660 --> 00:13:07,890
relatives or his friends. Thus
Zimride destroyed all the house

204
00:13:07,890 --> 00:13:11,400
of Basha according to your ways
word which He spoke against

205
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,110
Basha by Gu, the prophet for all
the sins of Basha and the sins

206
00:13:16,110 --> 00:13:19,800
of Isla his son which they
sinned, and with which they made

207
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,670
Israel to sin, to provoke
Yahweh, the God of Israel, to

208
00:13:23,670 --> 00:13:27,690
anger with their vanities. Now
the rest of the acts of Isla and

209
00:13:27,690 --> 00:13:30,150
all that he did, aren't they'd
written in the book of the

210
00:13:30,150 --> 00:13:34,350
chronicles of the kings of
Israel. In the 27th year of Asa,

211
00:13:34,380 --> 00:13:39,150
king of Judah Zimride rained
seven days in Tirza. Now the

212
00:13:39,150 --> 00:13:42,240
people were encamped against
giveth on which belonged to the

213
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,140
Philistines. The people who were
in camped heard that Zimra had

214
00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:50,370
conspired and had also killed
the king. Therefore, all Israel

215
00:13:50,370 --> 00:13:54,090
made Omri the captain of the
army king over Israel that day

216
00:13:54,090 --> 00:13:57,900
in the camp, Omri went up from
giveth on at all Israel with

217
00:13:57,900 --> 00:14:02,550
him, and they besieged Tirza.
When Zimride saw that the city

218
00:14:02,550 --> 00:14:05,340
was taken, he went into the
fortified part of the king's

219
00:14:05,340 --> 00:14:08,700
house, and burned the king's
house over him with fire and

220
00:14:08,700 --> 00:14:12,000
died for his sins which he
sinned in doing that which was

221
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,480
evil in your way sight, in
walking in the way of Jeroboam,

222
00:14:15,660 --> 00:14:20,760
and in his sin, which he did to
make Israel to sin. Now the rest

223
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,550
of the acts of Zimride and his
treason that he committed,

224
00:14:23,790 --> 00:14:26,340
aren't they written in the book
of the chronicles of the kings

225
00:14:26,340 --> 00:14:30,540
of Israel? Then the people of
Israel were divided into two

226
00:14:30,540 --> 00:14:34,050
parts. Half of the people
followed typify the son of guy

227
00:14:34,050 --> 00:14:38,490
naff to make him king and half
followed on MRI. But the people

228
00:14:38,490 --> 00:14:41,250
who followed on MRI prevailed
against the people who followed

229
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,780
tip nine the son of guy nap. So
tip nine died and Ani reigned.

230
00:14:46,530 --> 00:14:50,640
In the 31st year of Asa, king of
Judah aamra began to reign over

231
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:55,620
Israel for 12 years. He reigned
six years in Tirza. He bought

232
00:14:55,620 --> 00:14:59,190
the hill, Samaria of Shemer for
two talents of silver and he

233
00:14:59,190 --> 00:15:02,070
built on the Hill and called the
name of the city which he built

234
00:15:02,100 --> 00:15:05,730
Samaria after the name of
Shemer, the owner of the hill,

235
00:15:06,270 --> 00:15:09,660
I'm right did that which was
evil in Yawei site and dealt

236
00:15:09,690 --> 00:15:13,590
wickedly above all who were
before Him. For He walked in all

237
00:15:13,590 --> 00:15:16,920
the way of Jeroboam the set of
knee bat, and in his sins with

238
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,250
which he made Israel to sin, to
provoke Yahweh, the God of

239
00:15:20,250 --> 00:15:24,840
Israel, to anger with their
vanities. Now the rest of the

240
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,710
acts of aamra, which he did, and
his might that he showed, aren't

241
00:15:28,710 --> 00:15:31,140
they written in the book of the
chronicles of the kings of

242
00:15:31,140 --> 00:15:35,490
Israel, so on rice slept with
his fathers, it was buried in

243
00:15:35,490 --> 00:15:40,290
Samaria, and they have his son
reigned in his place. In the

244
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,070
38th, year of Asa, king of
Judah, Ahab, the son of Omer, I

245
00:15:44,070 --> 00:15:48,120
began to reign over Israel.
Ahab, the son of Omri reigned

246
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:53,460
over Israel in Samaria 22 years.
Ahab the son of Omer, I did that

247
00:15:53,460 --> 00:15:56,040
which was evil in your way
sight, above all that were

248
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,610
before him, as if it had been a
light thing for him to walk in

249
00:15:59,610 --> 00:16:02,970
the sins of Jeroboam the son of
knee bat, he took as wife

250
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,720
Jezebel, the daughter of F bale
king of the Sidonians and went

251
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,500
and served Baal and worshipped
him. He raised up an altar for

252
00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:14,730
bail in the house of Baal, which
he had built in Samaria. He had

253
00:16:14,730 --> 00:16:18,900
made the Ashura and they have
did more yet to provoke Yahweh,

254
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:22,530
the God of Israel to anger than
all the kings of Israel who were

255
00:16:22,530 --> 00:16:27,000
before him. In his days Heil,
the Bethel light built Jericho,

256
00:16:27,510 --> 00:16:30,840
he laid its foundation with the
loss of a Byram his firstborn,

257
00:16:30,930 --> 00:16:34,470
and set up its gates with the
loss of his second son See, gubb

258
00:16:34,590 --> 00:16:37,980
According to Yahweh, his word
which He spoke by Joshua, the

259
00:16:37,980 --> 00:16:38,730
son of non

260
00:16:39,270 --> 00:16:44,730
First Kings chapter 17. Elijah
the Tisch beit, who was one of

261
00:16:44,730 --> 00:16:49,050
the settlers of Gilead said to
Ahab, as Yahweh the God of

262
00:16:49,050 --> 00:16:53,280
Israel lives before whom I
stand, there shall not be do nor

263
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,030
rain these years, but according
to my word, then yeah, always

264
00:16:57,030 --> 00:17:01,080
word came to him saying, Go away
from here, turn eastward, and

265
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,810
hide yourself by the brook
Kerith that is before the

266
00:17:03,810 --> 00:17:07,290
Jordan, you shall drink from the
brook, I have commanded the

267
00:17:07,290 --> 00:17:11,340
ravens to feed you there. So he
went and did according to

268
00:17:11,340 --> 00:17:14,730
Yahweh, his word for he went and
lived by the brook Kerith, that

269
00:17:14,730 --> 00:17:18,390
is before the Jordan, the ravens
brought him bread and meat in

270
00:17:18,390 --> 00:17:21,330
the morning, and bread and meat
in the evening, and he drank

271
00:17:21,330 --> 00:17:24,750
from the brook. After a while
the brook dried up, because

272
00:17:24,750 --> 00:17:28,380
there was no rain in the land.
Yeah, always word came to him

273
00:17:28,380 --> 00:17:32,850
saying, Arise, go to zero fat,
which belongs to Sidon and stay

274
00:17:32,850 --> 00:17:37,620
there, Behold, I have commanded
a widow there to sustain you. So

275
00:17:37,620 --> 00:17:40,650
he arose and went to zero fat.
And when he came to the gate of

276
00:17:40,650 --> 00:17:44,670
the city, behold, a widow was
there gathering sticks, he

277
00:17:44,670 --> 00:17:48,060
called her and said, Please get
me a little water in a jar that

278
00:17:48,060 --> 00:17:51,780
I may drink. As she was going to
get it, he called to her and

279
00:17:51,780 --> 00:17:56,010
said, Please bring me a morsel
of bread in your hand. She said,

280
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,820
as your way Your God lives, I
don't have a cake, but a handful

281
00:17:59,820 --> 00:18:03,600
of meal and a jar and a little
oil in a jar. Behold, I am

282
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,020
gathering two sticks, that I may
go in and bake it for me and my

283
00:18:07,020 --> 00:18:12,090
son, that we may eat it and die.
Elijah said to her, don't be

284
00:18:12,090 --> 00:18:15,930
afraid, go and do as you have
said, but make me a little cake

285
00:18:15,930 --> 00:18:19,650
from it first, and bring it out
to me, and afterward make some

286
00:18:19,650 --> 00:18:23,760
for you and for your son. For
Yahweh, the God of Israel says,

287
00:18:24,030 --> 00:18:27,720
the jar of meal will not run
out. And the jar of oil will not

288
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:32,430
fail until the day that your way
sends rain on the earth. She

289
00:18:32,430 --> 00:18:36,090
went and did according to the
saying of Elijah, and she and he

290
00:18:36,090 --> 00:18:40,470
and her house ate many days, the
jar of meal didn't run out, and

291
00:18:40,470 --> 00:18:43,590
the jar of oil did not fail,
according to Yahweh, his word

292
00:18:43,620 --> 00:18:47,970
which He spoke by Elijah. After
these things, the son of the

293
00:18:47,970 --> 00:18:51,030
woman, the mistress of the
house, became sick. And his

294
00:18:51,030 --> 00:18:54,090
sickness was so severe that
there was no breath left in him.

295
00:18:54,750 --> 00:18:58,530
She said to Elijah, what have I
to do with you, you man of God,

296
00:18:58,890 --> 00:19:02,340
you have come to me to bring my
son to memory and to kill my

297
00:19:02,340 --> 00:19:06,930
son. He said to her, give me
your son. He took him out of her

298
00:19:06,930 --> 00:19:09,750
bosom and carried him up into
the room where he stayed and

299
00:19:09,750 --> 00:19:13,320
laid him down on his own bed, he
cried to Yahweh and said,

300
00:19:13,470 --> 00:19:16,920
Yahweh, my God, have you also
brought evil on the widow with

301
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,640
whom I'm staying by killing her
son. He stretched himself on the

302
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,900
child three times in cried to
Yahweh and said, Yahweh, my god,

303
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,190
please let this child's soul
come into him again. Yahweh,

304
00:19:29,190 --> 00:19:32,370
listen to the voice of Elijah,
and the soul of the child came

305
00:19:32,370 --> 00:19:36,090
into him again and he revived.
Elijah took the child and

306
00:19:36,090 --> 00:19:38,940
brought him down out of the room
into the house and delivered him

307
00:19:38,940 --> 00:19:44,190
to his mother. And Elijah said,
Behold, your son lives. The

308
00:19:44,190 --> 00:19:48,390
woman said to Elijah, now I know
that you are a man of God, and

309
00:19:48,390 --> 00:19:50,670
you always word in your mouth is
truth.

310
00:19:51,290 --> 00:19:57,050
First Kings chapter 18. After
many days, you always word came

311
00:19:57,050 --> 00:20:00,710
to Elijah in the third year
saying goes show yourself to

312
00:20:00,710 --> 00:20:04,970
Ahab and I will send rain on the
earth. Elijah went to show

313
00:20:04,970 --> 00:20:09,710
himself to Ahab, the famine was
severe and Samaria. Ahab called

314
00:20:09,710 --> 00:20:13,100
Obadiah, who was over the
household. Now Obadiah feared

315
00:20:13,100 --> 00:20:16,820
Yahweh greatly for when Jezebel
cut off Yahweh is prophets

316
00:20:17,030 --> 00:20:21,500
Obadiah took 100 prophets and
hit them by 50 in a cave, and

317
00:20:21,500 --> 00:20:26,750
fed them with bread and water.
Ahab said to Obadiah, go through

318
00:20:26,750 --> 00:20:30,110
the land, to all the springs of
water into all the books,

319
00:20:30,470 --> 00:20:34,220
perhaps we may find grass and
save the horses and mules alive

320
00:20:34,250 --> 00:20:38,450
that we not lose all the
animals. So they divided the

321
00:20:38,450 --> 00:20:42,140
land between them two paths
throughout it. Ahab went one way

322
00:20:42,140 --> 00:20:46,460
by himself, and Obadiah went
another way by himself, as

323
00:20:46,460 --> 00:20:50,690
Obadiah was on the way Behold,
Elijah met him, he recognized

324
00:20:50,690 --> 00:20:54,170
him and fell on his face and
said, is it you My lord, Elijah,

325
00:20:54,950 --> 00:20:59,330
he answered him, it is I go,
tell your Lord, behold, Elijah

326
00:20:59,330 --> 00:21:03,410
is here. He said, How have I
sinned, that you would deliver

327
00:21:03,410 --> 00:21:07,280
your servant into the hands of
Ahab to kill me as your way Your

328
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,700
God lives, there is no nation or
Kingdom where my Lord is not

329
00:21:10,700 --> 00:21:14,840
sent to seek you. When they
said, He is not here, he took an

330
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,470
oath of the kingdom and nation
that they didn't find you. Now

331
00:21:18,470 --> 00:21:22,460
you say, Go tell your Lord,
behold, Elijah is here. It will

332
00:21:22,460 --> 00:21:25,370
happen as soon as I leave you,
that you always spirit will

333
00:21:25,370 --> 00:21:28,910
carry you I don't know where.
And so when I come and tell Ahab

334
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,780
and he can't find you, he will
kill me. But I your servant have

335
00:21:32,780 --> 00:21:36,710
feared Yawei from my youth,
wasn't a told my lord what I did

336
00:21:36,710 --> 00:21:40,490
when Jezebel killed you always
prophets, how I hit 100 Men of

337
00:21:40,490 --> 00:21:44,120
Yahweh is prophets with 50 to a
cave and fed them with bread and

338
00:21:44,120 --> 00:21:49,310
water. Now you say, Go tell your
Lord, behold, Elijah is here, he

339
00:21:49,310 --> 00:21:54,560
will kill me. Elijah said, as
your way of armies lives, before

340
00:21:54,560 --> 00:22:00,200
whom I stand, I will surely show
myself to him today. So Obadiah

341
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:04,100
went to meet Ahab and told him
and Ahab went to meet Elijah,

342
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,780
when they have saw Elijah Ahab
said to him, is that you, you

343
00:22:08,780 --> 00:22:12,620
traveller of Israel? He
answered, I have not troubled

344
00:22:12,620 --> 00:22:15,860
Israel, but you and your
father's house, in that you have

345
00:22:15,860 --> 00:22:18,380
forsaken you always
commandments, and you have

346
00:22:18,380 --> 00:22:22,940
followed the bales now therefore
send and gather to me all Israel

347
00:22:22,940 --> 00:22:27,500
to Mount Carmel, in 450 of the
prophets of Baal and 400 of the

348
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:32,330
prophets of the Ashura who eat a
Jessa bells table. So Ahab, sent

349
00:22:32,330 --> 00:22:34,940
to all the children of Israel
and gathered the prophets

350
00:22:34,940 --> 00:22:38,750
together to Mount Carmel, Elijah
came near to all the people and

351
00:22:38,750 --> 00:22:42,980
said, How long will you waver
between the two sides? If your

352
00:22:42,980 --> 00:22:47,720
way is God, follow him. But if
Baal, then follow him, that

353
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:52,520
people didn't say a word. Then
Elijah said to the people, I

354
00:22:52,730 --> 00:22:57,170
even I only am left as a prophet
of Yahweh. But bales prophets

355
00:22:57,170 --> 00:23:02,300
are 450 men, let them therefore
give us to bowls and let them

356
00:23:02,300 --> 00:23:05,810
choose one bowl for themselves
and cut it in pieces and lay it

357
00:23:05,810 --> 00:23:09,560
on the wood and put no fire
under, and I will dress the

358
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,650
other bowl and lay it on the
wood and put no fire under it.

359
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,280
You call in the name of your
God, and I will call on you

360
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:21,800
always name the God who answers
by fire, let him be God. All the

361
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:26,000
people answered, what you say is
good. Elijah said to the

362
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,540
prophets of Bale, choose one
bowl for yourself and dress it

363
00:23:29,540 --> 00:23:33,770
first for you are many and call
on the name of your God, but put

364
00:23:33,770 --> 00:23:38,450
no fire under it. They took the
ball which was given them and

365
00:23:38,450 --> 00:23:41,450
they dressed it and called on
the name of bail from morning

366
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:46,190
even until noon saying bail hear
us. But there was no voice and

367
00:23:46,190 --> 00:23:49,790
nobody answered. They leaped
about the altar which was made.

368
00:23:50,570 --> 00:23:54,620
At noon a Elijah mocked them and
said, cry aloud, for he is a

369
00:23:54,620 --> 00:23:57,920
god. Either he is deep in
thought, or he has gone

370
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:02,060
somewhere or he is on a journey.
Or perhaps he sleeps and must be

371
00:24:02,060 --> 00:24:06,230
awakened. They cried aloud and
cut themselves in their way with

372
00:24:06,230 --> 00:24:10,310
knives and Lance's until the
blood gushed out of them. When

373
00:24:10,310 --> 00:24:13,190
midday was passed, they
prophesied until the time of the

374
00:24:13,190 --> 00:24:17,660
evening offering but there was
no voice, no answer, and nobody

375
00:24:17,660 --> 00:24:23,030
paid attention. Elijah said to
all the people come near to me

376
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:26,660
and all the people came near to
him. He repaired you always

377
00:24:26,660 --> 00:24:31,220
altar that had been torn down.
Elijah took 12 stones according

378
00:24:31,220 --> 00:24:34,250
to the number of the tribes of
the sons of Jacob, to whom he

379
00:24:34,250 --> 00:24:39,560
always word came saying Israel
shall be your name. With the

380
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,680
stones he built an altar in
Yahweh his name. He made a

381
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,950
trench around the altar large
enough to contain to see is of

382
00:24:45,950 --> 00:24:50,120
seed. He put the wood in order
and cut the bowl in pieces and

383
00:24:50,120 --> 00:24:54,440
laid it on the wood. He said
fill four jars with water and

384
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,160
pour it on the burnt offering
and on the wood. He said do it a

385
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,910
second time and they did it the
same second time, he said do it

386
00:25:01,910 --> 00:25:05,600
a third time. And they did it
the third time, the water ran

387
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:10,250
around the altar. And he also
filled the trench with water. At

388
00:25:10,250 --> 00:25:13,580
the time of the evening offering
Elijah the prophet came near and

389
00:25:13,580 --> 00:25:17,120
said, Yahweh, the God of
Abraham, of Isaac, and of

390
00:25:17,120 --> 00:25:21,290
Israel, let it be known today
that you are God and Israel, and

391
00:25:21,290 --> 00:25:24,770
that I am your servant, and that
I have done all these things at

392
00:25:24,770 --> 00:25:28,850
your word. Hear me, Yahweh, hear
me that this people may know

393
00:25:28,850 --> 00:25:32,660
that you Yahweh our God, and
that you have turned their heart

394
00:25:32,690 --> 00:25:37,460
back again. Then you always fire
fell and consumed the bird

395
00:25:37,460 --> 00:25:41,090
offering the wood, the stones
and the dust, and licked up the

396
00:25:41,090 --> 00:25:44,840
water that was in the trench.
When all the people saw it, they

397
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:49,670
fell on their faces. They said,
your way he is God, Yahweh, He

398
00:25:49,670 --> 00:25:54,890
is God. Elijah said to them,
sees the prophets of bale don't

399
00:25:54,890 --> 00:25:58,400
let one of them escape. They
seize them. And Elijah brought

400
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,030
them down to the brook Kai Shan
and killed him there. Elijah

401
00:26:02,030 --> 00:26:05,870
said to Ahab, get up, eat and
drink for there as the sound of

402
00:26:05,870 --> 00:26:10,310
abundance of rain. So they had
went up to eat and drink. Elijah

403
00:26:10,310 --> 00:26:13,310
went up to the top of Carmel,
and he bowed himself down on the

404
00:26:13,310 --> 00:26:16,700
earth, and put his face between
his knees. He said to His

405
00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:21,110
servant, go up now and look
toward the sea. He went up and

406
00:26:21,110 --> 00:26:25,250
looked and said, There is
nothing. He said, go again,

407
00:26:25,610 --> 00:26:30,170
seven times. On the seventh
time, he said, Behold, a small

408
00:26:30,170 --> 00:26:34,550
cloud, like a man's hand is
rising out of the sea. He said,

409
00:26:34,730 --> 00:26:38,630
Go up, tell Ahab get ready and
go down so that the rain doesn't

410
00:26:38,630 --> 00:26:43,130
stop you. In a little while the
sky grew black with clouds and

411
00:26:43,130 --> 00:26:47,060
wind, and there was a great
rain, Ahab road and went to jazz

412
00:26:47,060 --> 00:26:50,990
real, you always had was on
Elijah, and he tucked his cloak

413
00:26:50,990 --> 00:26:54,290
into his belt and ran before
Ahab to the entrance of Jezebel.

414
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,810
In chapter 17, we were
introduced to Elijah, who is we

415
00:26:59,810 --> 00:27:02,450
will come to see is a
significant figure in the Old

416
00:27:02,450 --> 00:27:06,260
Testament. And his appearance in
First Kings chapter 17, is the

417
00:27:06,260 --> 00:27:09,080
first mention of him. And
Scripture doesn't give us any

418
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,740
background on him, no genealogy,
nothing other than the fact that

419
00:27:12,740 --> 00:27:16,340
he was a Tisch beit, who was one
of the settlers of Gilead, as it

420
00:27:16,340 --> 00:27:19,730
says here in the world English
Bible version, or the NIV says

421
00:27:19,730 --> 00:27:23,300
that he's from tisby. What I
want to talk to you about today

422
00:27:23,300 --> 00:27:27,020
is found in Chapter 18. A lot of
great things happen in this

423
00:27:27,020 --> 00:27:30,230
chapter. And the main event, in
my opinion, is that Elijah

424
00:27:30,230 --> 00:27:33,920
challenged the prophets of Baal
to prove their God was real.

425
00:27:34,910 --> 00:27:38,330
Elijah had a lot of faith in me.
Now, this is not the sort of

426
00:27:38,330 --> 00:27:41,390
thing that I would encourage
anyone to do. But the people of

427
00:27:41,390 --> 00:27:45,290
Israel were at a critical
juncture. They had so turned

428
00:27:45,290 --> 00:27:50,300
from God that something dramatic
needed to be done. So this not

429
00:27:50,300 --> 00:27:55,460
really a contest was set up. And
all morning long the 450

430
00:27:55,460 --> 00:28:00,470
prophets of Baal cried out to,
let's face it, nothing to send

431
00:28:00,470 --> 00:28:04,310
down fire to consume the
offering. And then at noon,

432
00:28:04,310 --> 00:28:08,390
Elijah begins making fun of
them. I like this guy. Listen,

433
00:28:08,690 --> 00:28:11,900
most translations are very
restrained in the way they

434
00:28:11,900 --> 00:28:15,860
render, verse 27, the World
English Bible translation that

435
00:28:15,860 --> 00:28:20,750
we read today has it this way,
he said, cry aloud, for he is a

436
00:28:20,750 --> 00:28:25,130
god. Either he is deep in
thought, or he's gone somewhere,

437
00:28:25,460 --> 00:28:29,810
or he's on a journey, or perhaps
he sleeps and must be awakened.

438
00:28:30,470 --> 00:28:34,640
But that really is not accurate.
We get a hint of the more

439
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,360
accurate translation in the
English Standard Version where

440
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:43,340
Elijah said, cry aloud, for he
is a god. Either he is amusing,

441
00:28:43,340 --> 00:28:47,720
or he is relieving himself, or
he is on a journey. Or perhaps

442
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,590
he is asleep and must be
awakened. And then the Complete

443
00:28:51,590 --> 00:28:56,000
Jewish Bible gets it even
closer. Shout louder. After all,

444
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:00,200
he's a god, isn't he? Maybe he's
daydreaming, or he's on the

445
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:04,700
potty. Or he's away on a trip.
Maybe he's asleep, and you have

446
00:29:04,700 --> 00:29:09,650
to wake him up. Alright
relieving himself on the potty.

447
00:29:10,070 --> 00:29:14,720
Guess what? What he really said
there is. Maybe he's taking a

448
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:20,000
dump. Don't let anybody tell you
that God doesn't have a sense of

449
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,280
humor. So Elijah had some fun
with these false prophets. Gutsy

450
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:30,470
guy right? Here he is facing
down 450 of them and he's making

451
00:29:30,470 --> 00:29:35,510
fun of their gods. He got to
love that. And then when it was

452
00:29:35,510 --> 00:29:39,620
time for God to show himself to
be the God of Israel and all

453
00:29:39,620 --> 00:29:43,730
creation. Elijah had the
sacrifice and the wood and the

454
00:29:43,730 --> 00:29:48,470
altar just drenched three
different times. The water ran

455
00:29:48,470 --> 00:29:51,860
off the altar and filled the
trench that Elijah had had dug

456
00:29:51,860 --> 00:29:56,600
around the altar. And after
Elijah prayed, God not only sent

457
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,800
fire to consume the offering,
but the wood and this stones and

458
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:05,630
the dust and all the water in
the trench. I love it when God

459
00:30:05,630 --> 00:30:09,320
answers prayer in abundance,
don't you? So many times we

460
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,890
think small when we pray, don't
we? We forget that nothing is

461
00:30:12,890 --> 00:30:16,940
too great for God, we forget
that he has no limits. So the

462
00:30:16,940 --> 00:30:19,970
next time you have a need
remember what he did the day he

463
00:30:19,970 --> 00:30:23,960
proved himself to the prophets
of bail in the entire nation of

464
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:30,650
Israel? Well, do you have any
questions on what we read today?

I'd love to share your comment

469
00:30:47,180 --> 00:30:50,720
on the show. Tomorrow will be
Psalms Wednesday, and we'll read

470
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:55,130
chapters 72 through 74. We'll
also have a time of prayer and

471
00:30:55,130 --> 00:30:58,940
our fourth installment of
essentials. And someone has a

472
00:30:58,940 --> 00:31:02,300
question for me from the second
essential segment the one on

473
00:31:02,300 --> 00:31:06,620
hell? I'll answer that question.
And we'll talk about one God in

474
00:31:06,620 --> 00:31:09,290
three persons otherwise known as
the Trinity.

475
00:31:17,570 --> 00:31:20,870
Okay, I need to address this
right off the bat. Yesterday,

476
00:31:20,870 --> 00:31:24,080
John Train came in with his
monthly $50 donation. And I

477
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,040
forgot to credit him on the show
as an executive producer. My

478
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,150
bad, John. Well, that has since
been rectified on the website

479
00:31:32,150 --> 00:31:35,870
and in the credits for that
show. So Thanks again, John. And

480
00:31:35,870 --> 00:31:39,380
God bless you. And I'm sorry, I
forgot that important detail.

481
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,490
All right. Today's associate
producer is Timothy LaFontaine,

482
00:31:43,490 --> 00:31:47,150
who came in with his monthly $20
donation. Thank you so much,

483
00:31:47,150 --> 00:31:50,510
Timothy, for helping to make
this episode possible. God bless

484
00:31:50,510 --> 00:31:54,080
