Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.03,0:02:01.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,mainly by these two verses."
Dialogue: 0,0:02:01.15,0:02:04.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, let's look at the two \Nverses that he references.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.41,0:02:09.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The first verse is 1 Corinthians 12:3.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.43,0:02:11.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So let's look at that.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.25,0:02:18.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, 1 Corinthians 12:3
Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.24,0:02:23.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is one of the verses that he was using
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.50,0:02:29.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to tell his Catholic and Jacobite friends
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.33,0:02:33.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that we get the Spirit of God \Nthe moment we believe.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.14,0:02:36.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I'm not sure exactly what translation
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.02,0:02:37.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,he's reading from, but he has the verse
Dialogue: 0,0:02:37.95,0:02:39.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,printed out here so I'll just read it
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.85,0:02:41.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the way he has it.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.28,0:02:43.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Therefore, I want you to understand
Dialogue: 0,0:02:43.41,0:02:46.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that no one speaking in the Spirit of God
Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.18,0:02:48.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ever says, 'Jesus is accursed,'
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.86,0:02:52.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and no one can say, 'Jesus is Lord,'
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.99,0:02:58.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,except in the Holy Spirit."
Dialogue: 0,0:02:58.32,0:03:02.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So he sees this as a verse that means
Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.86,0:03:06.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if you're saved, you've \Ngot the Holy Spirit.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.58,0:03:18.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Can anybody see why he would think that?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:18.14,0:03:24.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is actually an interesting text.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:24.80,0:03:26.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What do you make of it?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.82,0:03:30.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Can a lost person say, "Jesus is Lord"?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.41,0:03:32.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And in fact, let me ask this question,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.80,0:03:35.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is there not even a verse in our Bible
Dialogue: 0,0:03:35.07,0:03:36.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that says that there are people
Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.54,0:03:37.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that say "Jesus is Lord,"
Dialogue: 0,0:03:37.90,0:03:40.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but on the last day,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.40,0:03:44.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Jesus is going to say, "I never knew you."
Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.43,0:03:47.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What's Paul saying here?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:47.65,0:03:48.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, we all know it.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.77,0:03:51.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Can lost people say, "Jesus is Lord"?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.47,0:03:54.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Certainly they can. Certainly \Nthey can mouth those words.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:54.77,0:03:56.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, what do you think Paul's saying
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.61,0:03:58.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when he says, "I want you to understand,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.71,0:04:02.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,no one speaking in the Spirit of God
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.48,0:04:05.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ever says, 'Jesus is accursed,'

Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.51,0:04:12.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What is he saying?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:12.53,0:04:16.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Anybody ever thought \Nabout that verse before?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:16.33,0:04:21.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,James: You did an APT on it a year ago.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.17,0:04:22.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Tim: Anybody remember?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:22.79,0:04:23.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(from the room)
Dialogue: 0,0:04:23.84,0:04:25.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I have a reference to 1 John 4:3.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:25.95,0:04:27.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Tim: Which says?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:27.29,0:04:29.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"And every spirit that \Ndoes not confess Jesus
Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.63,0:04:34.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is not from God."
Dialogue: 0,0:04:34.33,0:04:36.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Tim: Okay.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:36.21,0:04:38.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What do you think Paul's saying?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:38.06,0:04:41.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We could say yes, maybe \Nthere's some connection,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.94,0:04:44.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but I don't know that \Nthat text from 1 John
Dialogue: 0,0:04:44.90,0:04:48.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,really helps us decipher.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:48.03,0:04:51.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What does Paul mean?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.20,0:04:54.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Is it safe to say,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:54.07,0:04:56.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Paul would be the first one to recognize
Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.47,0:04:59.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that an unbeliever can lip those words?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:59.70,0:05:01.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Of course, he recognizes that.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:01.70,0:05:04.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He's not saying that there's
Dialogue: 0,0:05:04.14,0:05:06.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a linguistic impossibility for somebody
Dialogue: 0,0:05:06.82,0:05:08.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to vocalize those three words
Dialogue: 0,0:05:08.88,0:05:11.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if they're lost and have \Nnot the Spirit of God.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:11.62,0:05:13.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So what's he saying?
Dialogue: 0,0:05:13.38,0:05:16.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It seems like if you \Njust start reading here,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.67,0:05:18.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,1 Corinthians 12:1,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:18.26,0:05:22.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Now concerning \Nspiritual gifts, brothers..."
Dialogue: 0,0:05:22.15,0:05:24.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well, that right there -
Dialogue: 0,0:05:24.01,0:05:26.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,obviously they were asking \Nhim about spiritual gifts.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:26.64,0:05:29.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And probably what they were saying
Dialogue: 0,0:05:29.38,0:05:33.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is there were questions coming.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:33.79,0:05:34.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They had questions.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:34.82,0:05:36.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There were people prophesying.

Dialogue: 0,0:05:44.72,0:05:53.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And people perhaps appearing to be

Dialogue: 0,0:05:57.51,0:06:04.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and as that gift is being supposedly
Dialogue: 0,0:06:04.19,0:06:08.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,manifested in their meetings,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:08.01,0:06:10.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,something is happening
Dialogue: 0,0:06:10.12,0:06:13.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where Christ is not being exalted.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:13.06,0:06:17.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I heard John MacArthur say
Dialogue: 0,0:06:17.10,0:06:21.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that there were meetings taking place
Dialogue: 0,0:06:21.88,0:06:25.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where somebody was speaking in tongues.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:25.21,0:06:29.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And there was - I forget if it was
Dialogue: 0,0:06:29.45,0:06:32.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a Greek or a Hebrew scholar,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:32.58,0:06:36.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,who was attending the meeting.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:36.96,0:06:39.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And they were speaking in tongues,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:39.95,0:06:43.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they actually were \Nspeaking in a tongue.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:43.10,0:06:46.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And if there was any \Ninterpretation happening,

Dialogue: 0,0:06:47.96,0:06:50.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it was being lauded
Dialogue: 0,0:06:50.66,0:06:55.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as this was some great manifestation
Dialogue: 0,0:06:55.20,0:06:58.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the gifts of the Spirit,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:58.34,0:07:02.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and this man sitting there
Dialogue: 0,0:07:02.22,0:07:04.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,understood exactly what was being said,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:04.79,0:07:07.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and Christ was being cursed.

Dialogue: 0,0:07:15.68,0:07:19.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so, the idea here is
Dialogue: 0,0:07:19.09,0:07:23.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that if somebody is prophesying
Dialogue: 0,0:07:23.31,0:07:25.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or if somebody is speaking in tongues
Dialogue: 0,0:07:25.23,0:07:26.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or if somebody's interpreting,

Dialogue: 0,0:07:31.16,0:07:32.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is taking place,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:32.36,0:07:36.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,obviously, Jesus said Himself,

Dialogue: 0,0:07:38.68,0:07:40.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And if you've got things happening

Dialogue: 0,0:12:33.40,0:12:36.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and of course, there's \Na parallel statement

Dialogue: 0,0:12:50.71,0:12:52.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But these are the two he mentions:
