Episode 1,643 - Why does God abhor human pride and do people who commit suicide go to Heaven? Pastor Jim Putman joins us.  (AUDIO & VIDEO)

My friend and pastor, Jim Putman joined us for an important discussion about why God abhors human pride. Pastor Putman shares valuable insight from God’s Word on this subject. I also ask him a question I have heard in the wake of a local pastor’s suicide in our area: Do those who commit suicide get into heaven?

What does God’s Word say? 

James 4:6 ESV  

But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

Episode 1,644 - A “Doctor” I cannot name on YouTube was in a hearing I cannot cover on YouTube … so, let’s do it this way. Three Trip Wires that Lit The Elite’s Fuse Against Trump (AUDIO & VIDEO)

Imagine a doctor that shouldn’t be a doctor and is responsible for the deaths of many people. He is probably a sociopath and is being questioned before the government to answer pushing people to put harmful “stuff” into their bodies. But, that’s not real life though. Right? Hypothetically it would be important to talk about if this “stuff” was causing cancer and heart conditions in young people. And it is. We will also take a look at the three trip wires that lit the elites fuse against Trump.

What does God’s Word say? 

Matthew 10:16 NIV

16 “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

1 Peter 5 NIV

To the Elders and the Flock

5 To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed: 2 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; 3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.

5 In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because,

“God opposes the proud

    but shows favor to the humble.”

6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
