prayers that have been requested. We ask that Thou would encourage them up, those that are in need, with their health, with whatever it may be, with their difficulties, with their relatives, their mothers, their grandmothers, their pastors' wives, different ones that have been requested for prayer. We know that Thou canst touch hearts. And those that are in need, those that have the request, give them grace, give them strength, give them courage. to maintain whatever it may be that's difficult in their lives. Help them, Lord, to be with them and minister to them. Any of them that have requested prayer are lost and unsaved, bring them to the knowledge of our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who can help them and in Him we can evolve things through His strength that strengthens us. I just want to talk about that word today and tonight in this book of Corinthians. We pray in Jesus' name, we're in His sake. Amen. I'd like to read a book of 1 Corinthians, beginning in chapter 14. Those who are listening with us, please give us a call at 856-261-9018 or questions at biblefree.org or 8-questions at bfdbc.org. I'd like to hear from you. Give us a call to comments or anything else. Let's begin by reading 1 Corinthians 14. verses 1, 2, and 3 together. Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, that rather that ye may prophesy. For he that speaketh in an unknown topic speaketh not unto men, but unto God. For no man understandeth him, howbeit in his spirit he speaketh mysteries. And he that prophesieth speaketh unto men gratification, and exultation, and comfort. Why do you have pause for that before it begins? Hello? Hello? Oh, Cass. Well, thank you very much. You've got it. Good. Thank you very much. Okay, let's wave to Cass. That's Lambert. Okay. Thank you, Cass. I'm glad you're there. All right, now, in verses 7 to 14, what are we to follow after? That's right. To charity, I guess. And remember, what is the thing that they'd rather do during this time when these gifts, signed gifts, were present? Prophecy. Now, I notice in chapter 13, in verse 8, what is true of both songs and prophecies. There's someone tuning in from New York. Oh, good. Let's wave to Anna. Anna, wait. Our granddaughter. Wonderful. Thank you for tuning in. Be sure to speak up now, Anna. Don't let us down. Get some comments. I'm sure you've got them. One of the two things mentioned in verse 8 of 13, chapter 13, verse 8, that he spoke of right here, chapter 14, verse 1. That's that. Charity. Okay, but also what else? Charity, spiritual gifts, but what's the other thing? Prophecy. Number 8. What about verse number 8 and verse number 1? Well, chapter 13, verse 8, it's talked about there. And also here. Tongues. Tongues. Alright, so what is true in verse 13 and 8? Assuming both of these signed gifts, prophecies of that time? They're going to cease or fail. They're going to cease or fail. One of these signed gifts, when were they available to the church? And right there in the church stood saved people who weren't able to do these things. When were they present? During the transitional time period prior to the close of the canon. Alright, when was the close of the bible or the canon? Earth Day. When was that? Bill? About 90, 80? I don't think 90 or 180. The bible was complete. But during this whole section in the New Testament, especially here at First Corinthians and other places, it talks about these signed gifts. How many signed gifts are there? Oh, yeah. Can you guess that? About nine. That's right, about nine. Nine signed gifts. Can I tell you? Verses 8 through 10 of Chapter 12. Yes, they're there. And there's nine of them. There's the nine, that's right. I'm working on that right now in the book that I'm writing on First Corinthians, Chapter 12. And so I just covered those nine different ones. And when did the nine gifts, signed gifts, actually cease? When did they cease? All of them, not just these two, but all. What was the canon? That's not a shot and shooting canon, but the canon of scripture, when the Bible was completed. Now does everyone believe that and agree with us on that? No, but it's clear in chapter 13 that these things will cease, and that which is perfect is come, and that which is perfect, is it masculine or neutered? Any hands on that? That which is perfect, pass your hand. It's neutered. It's neutered. And so what can ever refer to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ if it's neutered? Is he neutered? No, he's masculine. And so what is a neutered word that this does refer to? That was, what are you, 10? The Bible. The Bible. Tom Pippin has a neuter word. And when the Bible is completed. And we have a battle with lots of charismatics and Pentecostals who don't agree with us on that. But when Paul was writing this, during the time of the Bible, all these gifts were there. So in view of that, let's continue and look at 14th chapter, verse number 1. Which is better? Well, Constance, even when these gifts are there, Prophecy or tongues? In verse one, it just mentions one, but in verse number two, you have both of them. What would he prefer? Actually, it's in verse three. Verse three, that's right, verse three. So, will charity fail ever? No. When the Bible is finished, when it's not complete, when it's partial, it'll always be. But these other signed gifts will stop and cease, even though some people disagree with us on that. In the gift, the signed gift of prophecy, what happens in that signed gift? What happened? Define that, Deb. Well, there's a message from God. I mean, kind of like the Old Testament prophecy. The Lord spoke to them, and then they spoke to the people. So God had a message, and through the gift of prophecy in the time before the Bible was completed, these were messages, as you say, from God to people, Christian people, to follow and understand. And that's what he would say. The Spirit of God would rather that you prophesy and have these gifts from God. Then in verse number two, what is true of the, what is this unknown tongue in verse two? How would you define that unknown tongue? Ah, in verse 214, when he is speaking in an unknown tongue, speaking in tongues, not in Tibetan, but in Chinese. Yes. No man understands it. No man understands how he is hearing. He's speaking in mysteries. That's right. That's good, Paul, for verse number two. But how do we define unknown tongue? How do we define it, Pastor Dan? A known foreign language. What is the purpose? How did God use that in the New Testament days? It was used at Pentecost. Apostles shared the gospel of chapter 2. Acts chapter 2. And they shared the gospel of those four countries. People that were there for the feast of Pentecost. They were Jews. Had the apostles ever studied his language before? No. No. It was a special gift of God. They were unknown to them. Unknown to them, absolutely. But not unknown to their hearers. To their hearers. Their hearers spoke it. Their hearers knew they were speaking that real language. Yes. Very important. And it is defined as an unknown language. If you had that gift in the Bible times, what is the negative about this gift? And what is the positive? The first number, truth. Something is not true, something is true. What enhancement is that? First number two, yes. When you're speaking to men, you're speaking to God. All right. And unknown tongue. Not to men, because men don't know, but God knows that unknown language. Now, a person that knows Hebrew, for example, or whatever the Jews spoke in that day, if they had an unknown tongue, a completely different language, would they be able to understand that? The Hebrew people? The Jews? No, but it's not God. God understands it. No man understands it, except the ones that live in that particular country and nation, as in Acts chapter 2. That's correct. But in the Spirit, He speaks mysteries. What is a mystery? If He has this gift in Bible times, what is a mystery, Lord? The mystery is a sacred secret. So it's a secret that God speaks. Then in verse number three, what is true of the prophecy, what was a gift, what was practiced, what did it do? What was its purpose, and how did God use it? A special scientific during the Bible times. And? It was used for edification, exhortation, and comfort. Those three things. How do we define exhortation? Let's start with those three things. How do we define that? Exhortation. Did I pass you that? Encouraging somebody to do something that's on the right track, do the right thing. Yes. Exhortation. That was the case. What was that? Building up. Encouragement. Building up strong. And then comfort and support. How do we define it? Support. Support. Things that would help people to calm their problems and difficulties. I already have a suit right here. That I got. Yes. Bond Linn Walls. Bond Linn. Thank you. Dr. Whitting, talking about verse 2, and then, of course, verse 3, could part of this be somewhat of a commentary on about how the books were getting, the affirmation was going into the biblical books? like mysteries, you know, the mystery about the church. And I'm just wondering if part of this is talking about the preparation of the books of the Bible, the New Testament. Yes. That's good. We'll take that. Thank you very much for calling. Thank you. Let's wave to Bondman and Walsh over there. Thank you very much. And Pastor Dan, how do we answer this as far as the preparation for the New Testament and some of these scientists? wants us to play in the foundation, perhaps, as far as that's concerned. But it's not. At one stage, it ceases. You see, the canon of Scripture is completed. God does give. God does give. He communicates to man in Scripture. That's the process of inspiration. He reveals to man certain things that they wanted to write down. And some of those things they did write down, and they became Scripture. And so the prophets that God used to write the Scriptures, the New Testament books, That was a revelation from God. And these things right here, well, temporarily, they weren't writing books here, weren't writing Bible books at this point, but the principle is similar because it's something God gives to men to be able to understand and do these three things as mentioned here for edification, exaltation, and comfort. These are not gifts mentioned here specifically in writing of books, but every writer that wrote God used to write the scriptures, New Testament scriptures, was given that special word, every word. God breathed and it revealed to the right, like Paul writing here in 1 Corinthians. Alright, and let's read verse number 4, 5, and 6. He that speaketh in an unwrought tongue, greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with untongue, except he interpreteth that the church be in Israel. Now brethren, as I come unto you, speaking with tongues, what shall I prophesy you, as if I shall speak to you, either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by fact. Like verse 4, what is true here that speaketh in unknown tongue? What is it true? So he's encouraged by the Lord because the Lord is using him and understanding something that he wants to find out and to know. But what is the context of the prophesying at that? It edifies the whole church. The whole church. But for he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God. So if you speak in an unknown tongue, you're speaking to God. For no man understandeth him, however in his spirit he speaketh mysteries. Nobody understands the things he says with God, and it's all big mystery. That's right. In verse number four, the Christian believer, the genuine Christian, who had been given that signed gift of speaking foreign language to someone else, identifies himself, he feels the power of God, but he didn't prophesy it, but when God revealed some of his truth, he identifies the whole church. It was a much better gift, even in the days when it was used. Then in verse number 5, what does it mean, I would, hope, choose me, find? Do you think that the church was filled with many people that spoke different languages, and so they had the time speaking so they all could understand the one language? It is possible. Although, as we'll see a little bit later, it may not be true. And some of the other ways. I was just wondering. Yeah, that's possible. If there are five people who are speaking different languages, but then if some of you came up and spoke one that we all could understand, maybe a new language or something. That's right. So it's basically those that are in foreign languages, tongue, or language, special language, would help them to understand. And one person named I would. That's his desire. And what was his desire? Two desires. One is not as strong as the other. What's the first one that he would? In verse number 5. Can I answer that? At that time? That everyone could speak Italian. At this time, everyone could speak the language so people could understand the foreign language. If it's French or German or whatever it is, or Spanish in our day or other languages. But what's the... I'd like to have people speak in these foreign languages so people can understand the gospel, but what's his preference? Prophecy. Special language. Questions at bftpc.org or 856-261-9018. Give us a call or comment and say hello. I was just going to say, I forget what I was going to say, but something about prophecy. It's more important than speaking in tongues. Somehow or other, If they should stop speaking in tongues, they should just talk. I'm trying to figure it out. Too many tongues. What if that gift were here today, and somebody says, I've got the gift of prophecy, signed gift of prophecy, and he says something that's completely contrary to the Bible? It would be a false prophet. And so that's what a lot of these things, these are Bibles that God doesn't want to add anymore. Here the Bible wasn't, so God used these special scientists, but it ceased when the Bible was complete about 90 or 100 A.D. And so we'd rather have you prophesy correct things from God. So, Joe, do you think it was possible at that time, there may have been those prophets that were you know, saying they already had a prophecy from God, and in fact it went contrary to the scripture that was already given. Already given, yes. And sure there were false prophecies, just like in the Old Testament, false prophets. I think of that story that we read in the Bible a day or two ago, where one prophet was told to go to a certain place, perform what he had to perform, I come right back home, don't eat there, don't stop there, go right back home. Then another prophet, oh, I saw a thing for the Lord. The older prophet, see? Lying through his teeth. And because the younger prophet didn't obey God, he was killed by a lion. Terrible, terrible. So, some people are false prophets as well. The lion just stood there. They killed him, but they didn't eat him. They didn't devour him. He just stood there beside him after he was dead, which is interesting. And what did the old prophet want to be done to him when he died? Put his bones with the young prophet. The young prophet was a true brother. to be speaking second Timothy, there are a number of verses on false Bibles and false teachers and so on. So this is very bad indeed. So in verse number five, all speak but rather. That means the best thing is in that day when the Bible is not going to be a prophecy. It's things from God to reveal to the genuine Christians what they should do, what they should believe. And who's greater, false One of the problems is they're greater. Because you can understand them. That's right. Except what? If a man is speaking in four languages, interpretation. Now, when we were, as reporters, Mr. Wade and me, we were reporters at this huge, Kansas City, Kansas or Missouri, at that big conference of paramedics, they would speak in tongues, and somebody would try to interpret, You don't know why that interpretation is right or wrong. Some people have said, I've read it in books, that when these present-day tongue speakers, the prophesied speakers, the language that they talk, some of it is a filthy, filthy, rotten, satanic meaning. People that know that language are supposed to be speaking. It's a terrible fact. I don't know who it was or when it was, but I remember hearing about that. But... Mr. Chambers, Joseph Chambers. Joseph Chambers is a pedagogical charismatic. He plays like we do in many of these areas. But these nine hits, he stands with and I stand against. We were in meetings one time. He's a good speaker and preacher. He's a good soft speaker. Yeah, Bill. Yeah, the tongues that they supposedly speak in these days, they're not real words. They don't form any part of language at all. You know, it's just syllables rolling off of a person's tongue. It's a spontaneous thing, just sort of like jazz improvisation or gibberish. Yes, it's just gibberish. That's true, and of course, that's why they're not real time, they're not real language in many of the situations. Some are, but most of them aren't. They just babble, babble, babble. But in verse number 5, if you do have this, even Paul's day before the Bible is complete, interpretation. Now when we were there at that meeting, they tried to interpret something. I don't know whether they interpreted it right or wrong, but they had some sort of people up there. They stood up there and they talked this other language and then they had different people up there that would tell us what that meant. Yeah, exactly. They were just making it up. They were just making it up as far as I can see, absolutely. They were so happy making it up. But the church even in those days had to be edified and build up in the faith. And then in verse number 6, when he comes, if he comes speaking in tongues, what's going to happen then? Paul says, what if I come speaking in four languages to you? In verse 5, verse 6. He's wondering what prophet is going to be for them. Unless it's going to be a revelation or a prophecy. What shall that prophet be to you? It's going to be to accept and shall speak to you either by revelation or by knowledge. In other words, in those languages, they're not going to help anybody. Unless there's interpretation of them, and sometimes there wasn't, apparently. But acceptance shall speak to you either by what? Three things. Or two things. Or three things. Yes, that's it. Doctrine is one of them. Doctrine. What else? Revelation. Verse six. What else is the third one? Revelation. So, something that builds them up and edifies them. And that's just not an understanding of any kind. Well, number six. Knowledge is another one. We miss knowledge. Oh yeah, revelation, knowledge. So would the knowledge, would that be the spiritual gift, or is that something else? It is one of the nine assigned gifts mentioned later on in the First Corinthians, but I think there's knowledge, This is probably the knowledge that's mentioned in 1 Corinthians, where it's placed. This is the spiritual gift. Probably the spiritual gift. Special knowledge, divine knowledge, specially given to them that nobody else can know. I have a question. What would be the difference between revelation and prophesying? Probably similar. When I think of revelation, I almost think of Since we don't know exactly what that knowledge is, perhaps it might be something on the order of what God gave to Solomon for his wisdom. Maybe not to the extent that Solomon had it, but perhaps it was a gift in that sense too. questions at BATBC.org or 856-261-9018. Give us a call or comment and an ear for me. And so then in verse we have to read 7, 8, and 9. Do you get it? Verses. And even things without life, giving sound, whether pipe or heart, except to give a distinction of the sounds, must have been known what is pipe or heart. For if the trumpet gives a strange sound, who shall prepare themselves for battle? So likewise he, except he was uttered by the tongue, were it easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? For he shall speak into the air. All right, then verse number 7. Things giving sound. What are the illustrations of sound that are mentioned in verse 8? What type of things are giving sound here? Trumpet. Trumpet is one. And what else? A pipe and a harp. Those are musical instruments. Now, if those are trying to play a song or tune that we know, that's one thing. But if we don't know anything about it, it's meaningless. People can rattle on with music. Like, for instance, the music you hear when you're waiting to and call someone and have them answer. They have little music things on the radio or the song. And we don't know what that's like. It's just a bunch of nice music. We don't know what they're saying. They don't say anything. Let's see what we got here. Oh, my. I busted it. No, I didn't. Hello, Rob Winograd from Chicago. I can't hear. Hi, everyone. I've got a couple of things. I think Sister Bottle was asking about if they knew they were writing scripture. I think they absolutely did. Peter alludes to Paul's writings in 2 Peter 3, chapters 2 Peter 3, verse 16. He refers to Paul's writings as scripture. Yes. One of the verses in this, Paul says, in 1 Corinthians 14, verse 37, the things that I wrote unto you are the commandments of the Lord. And I do believe that he did know that he was saying scripture. And most of the time that John goes down, they didn't know anything. They had no idea what they were writing. And on the tongues here, They were assigned for them, but believe not. And he also alludes to Isaiah 28, 11, verse 21. It is written, and of other tongues and of other lips will I speak unto this people. And yet for all that Will they not hear me? So it's a word. It was a stumbling block for many of them. But it was also like the conviction of the Prophets and the Gentiles when they came into the church to see this miraculous thing of promise. The whole chapter deals with Paul. Paul was saying that they were elevating God about prophecy. And Paul said, you know, the Spirit of the Prophets was like James of Prophets. I mean, they were founded, they were exalted, and they were held up to Scripture also, to the Old Testament. And Paul was a Pharisee, and he constantly heard of the Old Testament. And I think that also crosses over again, that he knew he was writing Scripture. quoting Scripture over and over again. And I did believe he was writing Scripture. Yes, that's good, Paul. Thank you very much. Let's wave to Paul in Chicago. Rave to Rob in Chicago. All right. Thank you very much. And that helps with the one last question as well. To answer that, that's great. So in verse number 8, number 7, I guess we're still in 7, without life, with the harps and the pipes. People have music, they hear music and organs and everything, but they don't know what they're playing. It just sounds, but they have to have something they can understand. That's time. Okay. Ann's got a couple of comments here. Good. C First Corinthians 13.1. Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels and have not charity, I have become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal, the uncertain sound. Yes, that's very good. Thank you, Anna. That's great, Diana. New York, Pennsylvania. New York, Pennsylvania. Thank you very much. All right, so the hype and the harp and these musical sounds, the distinction in the sounds. Not just simply a very long guess of time. It's interesting, it says life-giving sound. Life-giving sound. Show me where that is. Verse number 7. We're at 14, 14-7. One wouldn't necessarily think of the sound as life-giving, but it could be. If it's an alarm or something... Yes, if you actually hear it, it's like his life... What does he say, life giving sound? In verse 7, verse 7. Things without life giving sound. Without life giving sound. Okay, I get it. Never mind. I was just digging the short phrase and misunderstanding it. That's good. In other words... Things that give sound, things that aren't even alive. When people are using instruments, whether it's piano or saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, viola, you know, violin, there's certain sounds that they make that make a tune that we understand, especially if we don't understand. So it's got to be understood, distinction in sounds. How should we know what's played? There has to be a distinction. piano, my wife does the piano. It must be understood what it's playing, what it's from. When you play them on a note, it's obvious too. It's obvious too, that's exactly right. So that was 5, 6, and 7, was it? We started on 7, so we have 8 and 9. Oh yeah, okay. This is verse 8. It's tremendous. Very valuable for many things. What is mentioned here? Oh, she's trying to get this for the first. Verse 8? Why is it, Chad? Barbara, call again. I didn't get it. Oh, wait a minute. I almost got it. It keeps getting lost. Call again, Barbara. I'm sorry about that. If I don't get it in the right way, then I lose it. Okay, we'll try again. For instance, call to battle. Yes, call to battle. What are the different sounds in the Old Testament for the trumpets? Three or four purposes. Gathering. Gathering together. Alarm. Alarm. What else? For war. For war, okay. So these are special things. When you used to have camp. And you would call it, and do the different calls. And nobody said a word. They just played those calls. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bugle call. That was a bugle. A bug I was contemplating this without life-giving sound. Even without the life-giving, there is a distinction in the pipe or the harp. But, so the sound then, if it's going to be any good, has to be life-giving, which is the exhortation and the edification and the comfort. That's where the life is. The sound. Yes, that's great. Thank you very much. Let's wave to the Biblical Master right here in New Jersey. Amen. Thank you, Biblical Master. That's a good thing. Good coming. Does that really mean that the Son will give life? Like when a baby cries when it's first born? I think the things are without life. I misunderstood it when I was talking about it. So what do you think it is, Tammy? Well, I think the things don't have life in themselves. but they give sound. They give sound. Oh, that's good. I think they also use trumpet to assemble for feasts. Come and get your challenge. Now, we're talking about bugle sounds. It's a trumpet of an uncertain sound. Give me three or four different trumpet bugle calls and what do they mean? Number one is what? That's one. People call for food. What's another one? Tabs. What does that do? It's the end of the day. It's time to go to bed. Or also at a funeral, right? Is that a funeral? No. And they do that at funerals. Funerals also. What's the third one? The rise up, whatever it is. The wake up. Wake up up. I don't know how that one goes. That's food. How does that one go? For rise. What is it for? I can't hear it. Well, we need a trumpeter here. I think that's a trumpeter. I think that's what it is. I think that's wake-up call. We'll go whole on that, but someone knows, give us a call, 856-261-9018. What's another one? Colors. Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da Go ahead. Go ahead. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. That's right.

That's right. Okay, well, that's good. That's good. Repeat it, just the first phrase again. Repeat the first phrase again. Thank you. Just go ahead. Yeah, go ahead. That's good. Okay. That's good. Okay. Thank you very much. That's good. Thank you very much. Go ahead. Another one. Another one. Another call. Google call. What do you do when you are going into formation? What's the call to get ready? Anna says, I never learned them all, but I wanted to. Okay. What's the first call? You don't know what it is. That's the first call of me. I mean, the first goal, before you get into formation, you better get in line, get into formation. Then, what is the last goal? What is the final goal? Once you're in goal, then you're in attention, you play a second goal. First goal is get ready to go, get in formation, then second goal. That's the first one, yeah? That sounds like the first one. Anyhow, there's an assembly call as well. The pastor? The pastor wanted to say hello to you and all of you at the church family. Thank you for tonight's Bible study, Carl. Also, wanted to send his thanks and appreciate Mrs. Wade for the lovely birthday card we received. God bless each one. His love, Vicki and Carl. Vicki and Carl, well worth it. Wade to them. Over there in Massachusetts, right? No, Maine. That's right. It's at the M, right? When are you going to come see us? I think December. That's with December. You've got to be there right, otherwise you'll get penalized. They're not there on time. All right, well, if the trumpet... Does the trumpet give an uncertain sound? What is true if the trumpet does not give a certain sound? What happens? You don't know, you're confused. Confused? And what's the last part of that verse say? I can't remember. That that? He shall prepare himself to the battle. So, it's very, very important. And if we identify the trumpet as the Bible, the Word of God, the scriptures, like we believe in the King James Bible, accurate translations for the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek language, an excellent translation. If we don't have that real, solid, clear-cut, trumpet call, then we don't know where on earth the Bible is. We've got to listen. You have to catch an ad. Bob knows us, and she's won it with the wake-up call. Wake-up call. But that was the one that helped you. Yeah, probably. And what was that wake-up call again? So Rob did it. Is that it? Okay. So as I say, it's been a number of years. Gotta get up in the morning. Is that the wake-up call? Gotta get up. I think that's the wake-up call. I think that's what he said. All right. But we've got to have the proper call That's why I need the proper Bible to prepare us. Otherwise, we're not prepared for the battle. We've got to be prepared for this battle. We've got a battle on our hands today with all kinds of things. So that's my verse number 8. We read 9, too, didn't we? We read 9, didn't we? I don't know. Yes. Okay. This is the last verse. What is true of this verse? What is the danger? What is it warning us about? Can I answer that? You have to speak so you can be understood. Is that what you want? That's right. It's easy to be understood when you talk. You can't be trusted. If you just make a bunch of noise, it goes into the air. That's right. And how should it be known when it's spoken up? Speak into the air. In other words, this is a waste of time. It has to be clear. Now, if it's a foreign language, as they have the gift of these days with all the greatness, then they can make it clear for the foreigners and so on. Let's see what this is. Faith Peterson, voicemail. I didn't get the song, but at least she called and said something. That's good. Why wouldn't it be there? Well, I don't know. The dingle is a little bit different than the actual voice. It's just a little bit messy. Oh, the dingle and dangle? Yeah, the dingle is a little bit different. So that's verse number nine. He's the man who's the speaker in Washington. There, now that's a real call. See that? Blink and blink. OK. That's Rob again. Go ahead, Rob. Oh, yeah. The mic is going up. Good. That's nice. What else does he have for us? We could have him tune that on every time church was supposed to start. That's good. Any other comments before we close tonight? That's very nice. That's nice. You just call people or send them an email with a link and they can... Yes, we can link it right. Get that call. Any other comments before we close? If not, let's close. We thank you, Heavenly Father. God has revealed all these verses, this whole chapter, the whole book of 1 Corinthians. We thank you we can discuss it and talk about it. And though these gifts were were there in Paul's day and up until the Bible was completed. We do not believe that they're still with us today. And the Charismatics and the Pentecostals that hold that, they differ with us, and at times fight with us about it. But the Charismatic movement is going astray and going into modernism and apostasy. I'm glad that Brother H.G. Spence, who used to be a Charismatic in Pentecostal work, he left it when they began to break. So if things are happening, God has the directives to bring us back safely to the Lord so that He can help us to live for our Savior and love Him and serve Him.
