Joel 197: Is Satan Telling The Truth? No. He never makes that mistake. He never tells the truth.

Our pastor explains what the doctors think is wrong with him. And Luke from Ohio sent pastor a cool new tie.

We’re approaching 200 lectures on the Book of Joel and that’s enough to just get us started. A passage in Joel supports the need to combat the teachings of Calvinism, along with 2 Kings 6, the floating axe head, and these things make untenable the positions of Arninianism and Calvinism. Our pastor does a really good rant on this and typing it wouldn’t do it justice. And what about Easy Believism? People have no idea about that.

In Job 1 we have two questions that Satan asks and the two questions from God. Here is the main part of the lecture and it is something our pastor has been wanting to bring to us for quite some time... in other words, this is going to be really good. This discussion has to do with all of the Angels, fallen and faithful, on one day. We’re going to find out what day this is. So, let’s sit back with our TextBooks and note taking devices out and listen intently. It has to do with Ezekiel 28:14, so we’re going there and beyond, but we’re sticking with the story of Job. And apparently, when Satan’s “job” early on is to walk to and fro in the fiery stones has to do with free will. Question is... is Satan telling the truth? No. He never makes that mistake. He never tells the truth. What Satan is doing here and in Genesis 3 is exactly the lie of Calvinism, that God causes, and is the author of, evil. We go to John 1:5 because the light shines... but the darkness does not understand... the darkness is a person. There’s 1 John 3:8 and Ephesians 6:12.

And this is just the beginning of this conversation. There’s more... and more to come.
