Emir Caner

Webcasting around the world from the desert metropolis of Phoenix, Arizona. This is the dividing line. The Apostle Peter commanded Christians to be ready to give a defense for the hope that is within us.

Yet to give that answer with gentleness and reverence. Our host is dr. James white director of Alpha Omega ministries and an elder at the Phoenix reformed Baptist Church. This is a live program and we invite your participation.

If you'd like to talk with dr. White call now. It's six. Oh two nine, seven three four six zero two or toll-free across the United States. It's one eight seven. Seven seven five three three three four one and now with today's topic.

Here is James white.

Opening Banter, Travel Plans, and a Jumbo Edition

And welcome to the dividing line on a Monday afternoon move things up a little bit. I'm gonna be doing a little traveling tomorrow briefly just for the day. And So here we are. We're gonna do a jumbo edition.

Which means those of you who listen to the dividing line while working out you get an extra half hour of workout in today Without having to switch over to listen to wretched radio. I Was Just a little snark for for dr. Snark over there at wretched radio and I listened to him Did not all the time but I do I do catch a lot of wretched radio and so we thought we would do a little hat tip there and Save you from having to listen To a few more snarks from the snarky one.

Anyway, right before we got started someone in channel. It's always a It's always a dangerous thing when people drop URLs into channel the chat channel right as the program's starting. Because I clicked on this thing and There's a couple things Ed Young blasts news station for false reports on animal sermon series and there's a picture and There's this lion in a cage in the background of the of the on the stage.

I wouldn't call this a I mean, it's a stage. It's a place of performance. That's what it is. And then you got Ed Young looking very much like a young Pat Boone. With his white pants and brown loafers and pink jacket and no tie.

It looks really bad. The jacket looks like it's about four inches short. But anyway, and he's holding a little lamb. Which I'm sure I'm sure the lion is noticing. Going Oh little snack and there are people who were complaining about this and look hey if your church is big enough to Afford a petting zoo to teach the kids, you know when I was a kid we had to use those flannel board things.

Teach us about lions and lambs and stuff like that. But hey, if your church is big enough to have the real thing, hey more power to you I guess I'm not sure what that's doing in the middle of a alleged worship service.

But hey, this is This is fellowship Church. What do you want? What did he say down here there was there was some statement down here that was really weird. Yeah, I cannot tell you how many emails and letters and responses that we've received of life change.

I'm under one of what life changes. I wonder if that's repentance and faith. But anyway fellowship is one of the most well attended churches in America, and that is a total and complete God thing said young.

Okay, all right well I'm not really sure what kind of talk that is. But anyway, but what struck me especially was here you've got this picture of Ed Young holding the lamb with the lion. It looks like he wants to get out of the cage and eat them both and Then right below it under church and ministries is A picture of John Piper has John Piper ever taken a picture Where he didn't look like his blood pressure was extremely elevated and he was about to say something extremely profound.

That is there ever a picture of John Piper where he's about to say something like those were good french fries I mean seriously does he always looks like You know he's about to say Something that's just you know Earth-shattering, you know I I just it's it's it's just that's just John but he's got this real intense look at his leaning forward you know and and and The caption is John Piper, I'm amazed I'm still a Christian.

So right underneath right underneath pastor Ed Young holding his little lamb is John Piper and It was it was an intense thing. I'm amazed. I'm still a Christian. Yeah, which probably I don't even have to guess I I didn't hear this this was back.

This was from the t4g stuff, but you know it was probably a statement that wow what an amazing thing is the preserving Grace of God, and yeah, you know all that kind of stuff. It's just such a such a massive contrast between the two pictures of Ed Young and then John Piper it was I don't know it just happened to be someone dropped that URL Into into channel and right at the same time I That the program started so I I thought I would mention that but we will Move on from there and today we have a as I said a 90-minute version and So Ralph has a has an aversion to props while preaching.

You know I I do too for in general I think preaching should be preaching but I'll have to admit I'll have to admit and there are some people that don't like this, but and and Some people are good question my Reformed Baptist bona fides here.

But I think there's a place for visual assistance not Distracting, but I mean a lot of churches now. You can just open up your your phone and the text will be there with the sermon notes. Automatically, they'll just yeah, they've got just just beamed right out to you.

They're type of thing Logos has a program that does that and some other some other thing that that's becoming real common and I know there are certain sermons that it would be in Hebrews. It would have been easier for me to have had a projection system for some of the points had to make that really did.

There there are certain points where I think it can be helpful, and then there are other points I think it can be just a distraction, so I think you have to I don't know. Figure it out for yourself in essence.

Yes. The day pastor fry allows a projection screen to be put up in that church the day pigs fly. Yeah, well, you know hey, you know someday he might have a cell phone who knows but You know he lets me use it in the Sunday school room.

It's just when it comes to the service that I realized that we actually could do it though. We've got those two whites white walls. We've got nothing else on them. I can guarantee you that. And you know if we put it up there in the ceiling we could we could we could have two of them up there.

And they wouldn't be very big but given the size of our place doesn't need to be very big. So yeah, that would be that'd be a way to do it. Yeah a keynote. Yes, you know the Reformed Baptist Church. It's it's coming.

It's coming in in time anyway. I'm not really sure how I got onto that, but hey Doug in London, and I'm sorry Milwaukee is listening. Doug in Milwaukee is listening. He has a really odd. He goes to bed at very strange times for living in Milwaukee.

It really is really Really is strange anyways on the program today what we're gonna do even though I've already wasted eight minutes of your time. Hopefully didn't completely waste eight minutes of your time.

I thought the John Piper observation was pretty good myself, but I'm getting back to Port poor Sam poor Sammy is is confused thinking that Doug is in Milwaukee. He's not part of the joke on that, but that's that's okay.

We'll let we'll let Doug explain that a little joke to him. Oh we have three. We are in the middle of three different Discussions all at once we have been listening to the Wallace-Ehrman debate for a long time.

We have been listening to the Adnan Rashid presentation. And believe it or not if you recall We actually started sometime this year, I think it was this year. The Emir canner sermon one of the few Canner sermons these days that did not get cannerized.

And if you have not been keeping up with that there is a new word. We need to add to the English vocabulary. It is it is a verb to cannerize is to preach a sermon and Yet to do it basically in Secret and Then to make sure that despite the fact that it recorded just fine.

There is a technical difficulty in Providing that sermon to anyone who might want to listen to it, especially if they want to listen to it online. That's what it means to cannerize a sermon and so This happens primarily to Ergin, but evidently it happens to emir as well.

Primarily Ergin will will be asked to come speak someplace, and he'll say sure I'll do that however you can't tell anybody I'm coming except inside the church and ask them to keep it quiet and Then you can record it, but then you have to delete it or I'll have to kill you Something along those lines, and that's what's going on with With the canners these days, and we had started listening to a presentation he had done actually in October of 2010 as I recall on on the Radio free Geneva, but I didn't since we're.

I Guess I could have played radio free Geneva and radio free Damascus on top of each other which would have been an interesting mixture of Odd statements, but I decided not to do that so that's what we have on.

Yeah, that would have been pretty tough for the person running the board as well. Yes, I know candor claims is for his own safety. He used to be used to be talking about Yes, his safety all right the safety of his job.

It's for my own safety. It's all those jihadis chasing me around and all those fatwas they've proclaimed upon me for debating all those people in Arabic and imams And mosques and yeah, right. Uh-huh sure that's that's right so anyway.

We need to get back to all these and it was interesting. We had just stopped at a pretty decent Location actually in the emir canner sermon, and so it's a good a good place to Pick up again, so hopefully I've got everything plugged in here right and hopefully you've got everything plugged in out there, right and.

Here we go. If evil glorifies God. Why fight it?

Evil, Divine Glory, and the Prodigal Son

Now if evil glorifies God Why fight it. That's what he just said and You know I'm sitting back going okay. This is a general of is this a general theistic objection. Because I mean is He is he arguing that God is not? glorified.

Even in the evil in the world so so he has a God who created. He doesn't want evil to exist. But he created knowing evil would exist, but he's not gonna be glorified. So God chose to do something that would not result in his own glorification evidently.

But as he explains his objection, that's not actually it doesn't end up actually being what he's saying.

Here listen listen to the full thing. Let me explain myself if evil glorifies God. Why fight it? Here's the question. Here's. A young man looks at his father. And says I wish you were dead. The father gives him everything he wastes everything doesn't he?

So much so that he goes into the worst place a Jewish man could go. He is going to feed the swine. The pigs were atrocious. They were unclean. They were cursed. Okay.

It's been so long. Let me just mention the scriptural text for this Discussion and this and he of course has mentioned Calvinism, and we've corrected many of his misapprehensions of it. The Scriptural context is the parable of the prodigal son.

Which I've asserted is primarily focused upon the relationship between the older son and the younger son and the older son the father and the complaint of the older son which who represents the Jews and the reception of the prodigal.

And his rejection of that and and things along those lines. That hasn't been the context he's used, but that's. Anyways, just so you remember what the context is is the prodigal son.

But the issue is not merely about depravity. It's about the author then of Depravity and here's the question of the hour. If God doesn't want someone He doesn't want someone from the foundation of the world.

So why are the unelected born?

If God does not want someone Then he does not want someone from the foundation of the world. So why are the non elect born? That's a fair question. I mean, but you need to realize something. It's a fair question against a theistic system.

Because it's just as much an issue for him I mean the term elect is found in Scripture. It's it's there. You you have those troubling texts about about God. You know those who've been who've been appointed unto disobedience and keeping them under punishment and and you've got all this stuff there.

You you may not preach in such a way that you ever have to touch on those texts. That's unfortunately the common way in Certain Baptist circles. But this is more of a question for general theism than it is just about reformed theology.

Because everybody has a doctrine of election if you make the elect based upon their activities you still have the elect and as long as you think God has knowledge of all future events and contingencies and everything else you still have to answer these questions yourself and.

The Non-Elect, Divine Election, and the Purpose of Human Existence

So Ymir Kanner Needs to explain if God knew What the eventual fate of every person would be based upon their free will actions which seems to be his Viewpoint of things not because of God's divine decree.

But because of Well man's actions so so God's actions depend upon man's actions and yet as long as God knew that I suppose He could be an open theist I could I suppose he could reject that God has exhaustive knowledge of future events including the events that come from the free will actions and choices of men.

I Suppose that's a possibility. I would be surprised I would think there would be a lot of discussion of that on the net someplace if he had been open to say that but You never know. I mean these guys They don't seem to take too well to being examined as to their Specific claims about themselves and their theology and things like that.

So assuming that he's not an open theist. Then he has to answer the same question because God knows Exhaustively who is and who is not going to accept him even on his grounds on his perspective. And so why would God create them knowing that by creating them?

He is going to be giving them the opportunity of their own fundamental condemnation and and in fact by extending their life and giving them the blessings of his son in his moon and and the Rain, and and and all the blessings of common grace.

He's giving them all this time to heap up for themselves greater and greater condemnation and There will be no glorification of God in the destruction of the wicked from his perspective so The question would go to him now from the reformed perspective that it's not overly difficult to answer the question if he was really interested in what the reformed perspective is as We pointed out earlier, and I know it's been quite some time, but so I have to sort of go back and do a little Restatement of things and I apologize and allowing so much time to go by.

I have been doing a lot of traveling recently, but It's not overly difficult to answer the question. And that is I think it is absolutely necessary for a Christian to to understand deriving primarily from Ephesians chapter 1 and and texts and in Isaiah and Jeremiah.

Where you start touching upon these things looking at at? John chapter 6 and The interaction of the Father and the Son to bring about salvation of God's people. John chapter 17 the high priestly prayer you put all this together and You see that it is the triune God's intention To glorify himself through the demonstration of the full range of his attributes.

That he is going to glorify himself in the salvation of particular people. Yes, but likewise He is going to glorify himself in the perfect demonstration of justice the restoration of all things through Christ Jesus.

And that is not a grounds of universalism unless the universalism you're talking about is the universal demonstration of God's glory both in the demonstration of his grace his mercy and his love and the salvation of specific people and the demonstration of his wrath and his anger and his holiness and his justice in the Right and righteous punishment of those who love their sins.

Despite the clarity of the revelation the existence of God around them and the great abundance of God's grace that has been shed upon Them in the common grace that all mankind experiences. So there you have a I think a rather full Explanation of why the non-elect exist.

If it really goes back again to a question that I first was asked by a professor many many many many years ago a Dear brother in the Lord who is no longer with us. But from whom I learned much. Who I think would have bristled at being called reformed.

But in many ways he was that just wasn't a part of his background and tradition. But I remember very clearly in a theology class that I says I only see three possibilities either God can save everyone God can save someone or God can save no one and In only one of those three options does God have any? freedom to act.

In only one of those ways does God have a choice. If God saves no one then there is Absolutely, no demonstration of his mercy and his grace. If God saves everyone there is no demonstration of his wrath and justice and holiness.

But by having the freedom to save as he chooses God is free himself to act and to reveal himself as he sees fit and That is the case here. It seems that what emirs question really is and this is this again.

This is where I Really hope and trust that by playing these these sermons and and by dealing with these Presentations and and debates one of the reasons we do this is I I'm trying as best I can to encourage every person listening to this and I So appreciate our audience and I so appreciate the people who write in and say, you know I listen while I'm doing this and that and I've I've encouraged a bunch of people to start listening this program all exercising.

I mean I'm gonna be I'm gonna be doing about I don't know six At least six hours worth of exercising myself tomorrow. And I have lined up a whole lot more than six hours for the stuff because I listen to it a double speed so We've got a really really Important and exciting show coming up.

I haven't scheduled the exact date yet because I need to work with Michael on this but Michael Brown will be joining me soon and We are going to do Minimally, I hope minimally, it'll be an uninterrupted hour, but I'm hoping for a jumbo a 90 minute segment because you know, he's got his own national to our radio program.

So he's a busy guy. So grabbing that much time from somebody is tough. It'll be it'll be tough for me to do the same thing but The gospel according to Isaiah 53 has come out. The book is available in our Amazon bookstore and I need to blog that and I got my copy and Michael wrote the the chapter on Jewish Interpretations of Isaiah 53 now, I'm promoting the book despite the fact that one of the authors the book is David Allen David Allen of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary who falsely identified me as a hyper Calvinist of the John 316 conference and Then despite being corrected even by the people even by the person he was quoting whose definition was completely Misused and has been told that he insists on continuing to say that in the published version of the John 316 conference.

But despite that I'm still promoting the book. See some of us can do that. There are other people that would never promote anything I contribute to. Because well, anyway, that's another issue so the Isaiah 53 book has come out and I've it's it's I saw it.

I put it we it was on pre-order for like six months and It's been really delayed and coming out and I can't complain about that. Look how delayed my book is but Feeling really guilty about that right now, but anyway We are we are making progress there.

Thankfully The as soon as it I saw it coming out I contacted Michael said what I'd love to do is have a program where we can get together you and I we go through Isaiah 53 based on the Hebrew text and we just Exegete the text and we talk about this tremendous text and and of course, he's more than happy to do that.

And I'm really looking forward to doing that. Somebody kick Ralph out of channel. He just needs to be just needs to be done. It's it's it's just has to has to be done. Anyway, um, so that's coming up and I'm really excited about that.

And I hope you all will be listening in to that but what I want to do in this in in on this this program and Is to is to illustrate and to demonstrate and to Model how to analyze arguments first and foremost logically Foundationally Rationally without letting your emotions getting get in the way and here you have a Statement by Ymir Kanner that is specifically designed to create an Emotional aura that keeps you from recognizing what the objection fundamentally really is.

Why does God create the non elect? That sounds like well, that's a fair question, but there's given the context What you need to recognize is that it is Fundamentally an attack upon God's freedom. It is a an objection hiding behind a question That is really an objection to just basic Christian theism.

When you ask a question that is just as valid your own position, but you use it as an objection against somebody else's position. That's not good thinking. That's not good theology either so Keep that in mind when you when you hear objections like this Consider well, what is is being stated and what the foundational but the foundation of it is.

The argument from reformed men like John Piper was to glorify God. Well that takes away God's sovereignty. Have you ever thought about that. Not follow this? He's gonna argue.

That God's sovereignty is taken away if He's glorified in the demonstration of his justice Toward men and women who are judged on the basis of their love of their own sin and The and the commission of that sin and their their rejection of him.

And you might go. How's that? Let's listen. Listen to how this works.

If John Piper is correct that people are created for nothing else to be damned and the reason they are damned now. Now just stop. Did you catch that?

Nothing else than to be damned. That is not of course what the position of John Piper would be or Anyone else who's reformed? That you've now taken the end final Position of someone and Said there is no other that's like saying the only reason we're saved is to go to heaven.

Dr. Cantor, what about all that? Sanctification stuff and and glorifying God and obedience to Christ being conformed the image of Christ and you know the interaction we have with others and and being conduits whereby God's grace can flow into the lives of other people were made more like Christ and there's just so much of that stuff that just got absolutely Chucked out the window by emir Cantor.

Now. Do you think he doesn't know he did that? Or is it just that? Well, it's those Calvinists. I don't really have to worry about those Calvinists Anyways, I don't have to worry about accurately representing them.

I think that's what it is. I Think that's that's how most of these guys behave is now. I don't have to worry about that I'll need to be fair to them. I can just I can just go ahead and you know.

Um is that God gets the glory. Then would not God's glory be dependent upon the burning flesh of those who would not go to heaven?

Would not God's glory be dependent upon the burning flesh of those who would not go to heaven? Well, first of all, it'd be those who would not repent of their sins. And I just have to ask emir canner When you look at Genesis 18 and 19 when you look at What happened to Sodom and Gomorrah?

Dr. Canor Can you look past your biases look past? Maybe even sir your bigotry Just long enough to ask yourself the question Was God glorified? When that nation that nation state was a city-state back then who knows how big it was but when that area which was known far and wide for its perversion its open promotion of Sexual license a complete perversion of the created order when it was destroyed when God's justice came to bear.

Are you saying God was not glorified. I Don't know where you get this. God is dependent upon thing God freely chose To glorify himself in this particular way to say it There was something outside of him acting upon him forcing him to do it this way.

That's ridiculous. But are you really going to say That God will not be glorified When his justice is done when when God killed the firstborn emir canner in Egypt have you ever thought about what that was like?

Most of us just sort of put that off to the side. Don't we? We don't really think about the wailing and the crying and and as as the Israelites are going out There are these Egyptian women with with tear-stained faces Taking the bodies of their firstborn to be buried.

We don't we don't think about that part we just think about the the joyous part of the people going out right, but there was weeping and moaning and grieving all Through the land and Dr. Kanner, are you going to for the sake of your traditions say that?

That that event Did not fundamentally point to the justice of God against an idolatrous nation That had received so much from the hand of God in the way of common grace and blessings and Yet refused repeatedly in the person of their leader to worship the one true God they were steeped in idolatry and It's it's so easy for the sake of promoting your tradition to undercut the seriousness of Biblical revelation as is being done here in emir canner sermon.

But we can't do that. Not if we're serious about the Word of God and So no God's glory is not dependent upon their burning flesh, but their burning flesh demonstrates the holiness and justice of God and Dr. Kanner if God is not glorified in the demonstration of his wrath against sin.

Then dr. Kanner he's not glorified in the cross Where his wrath is seen in its starkest and fullest measure. Got to be careful dr. Kanner. When you think you've come up with an argument and in reality You're striking at the very heart of the faith.

Literally to believe such a thing would be to deny the sovereignty of God because the sovereignty of God and Demonstrating his glory would be dependent on people going to hell and therefore the unelect Would have control over God's sovereignty.

Now I.

Can see why someone who Maybe has no concept of what God's sovereignty is. Which you know, unfortunately that term gets thrown around a lot. I Maybe just doesn't do a lot of thinking on these issues might Look at that and go.

Wow, that's a that's a that's a great great way of putting I had never never thought of it that way. There's there's one little problem and that is that's not what God's Sovereignty is all about in the first place.

God's sovereignty has to do with his freedom. To decree his own glory and to work as he sees fit in his own creation. To bring about his glory in the way he chooses to do so and he chose to do so through the demonstration of his wrath.

It doesn't make the means that he's ordained Something he's quote-unquote dependent upon. The only way you could come up with that is to really not understand the categories of God's sovereignty power the decree of God And his activity in time.

But that's what Amir Kanner has done. He's basically brought God down from the lofty eternal position placed him in time and said well If if God's could be glorified then he's he's dependent upon these things which which he what which he ordained ordained to his own glory which came into existence at his command and Function as he chooses them to function.

So keep that in mind as you Listen to what this man is saying at this particular point in time.

Something to fathom and consider. And I know it is a deep thought but if evil glorifies God, why would we fight it? In fact when we look out into this world and we say you know what there was that murder in Toledo today or.

Divine Judgment, Human Responsibility, and the Decretive Will

Think about that for a second if evil glorifies God Why would we fight it? Now, how would you answer that? I mean, hopefully once again Hopefully you you you you try to back away and You look at the foundations of The question and what he's trying to do is set up a conflict a contrast a Contradiction Between What God has decreed to take place?

That is his sovereign decree and his prescriptive will his this is trying to create a contrast and conflict between the Decretive will of God and the prescriptive will of God that's found in his law because in his law We are given a revelation as to what is pleasing to God How we should behave as his creatures and As such What should be the desire of our heart if we want to be like God and we want to be pleasing to him and So we do not desire What is opposed to his prescriptive will?

We Truly desire in our hearts because he's written his law upon our hearts To love God and to be obedient to him and to see his will done. We do not have access to the decrees of God That is something that is known only to the triune God himself and So we are not accountable to those decrees and We certainly see and I see it's a little bit distracting but we have a sort of a heckler In channel today some guy named Jesse and He seems to think that God is limited by his covenants and he was just earlier saying that God cannot be glorified by evil.

Well again, this is just a person doesn't understand the Bible doesn't doesn't know the Bible. There are so many instances where God has utilized the evil of men's hearts for his own glory. You have the great instances in Genesis 50 and You have the Incident in Isaiah chapter 10 and of course you have Acts chapter 4 as well text we've gone over numerous times That Demonstrate without without any question The reality of God's actions in this way and by the way, Jesse if he wants to Demonstrate his Continued ignorance can do so over in apologetics, but not in prosper again for the next hour.

I just Dispatched him there and since he's listening if he wants to go to apologetics and blab blather on he can blather on there. Vinny over at Fuller Just said if Yahweh doesn't have the sovereignty to freely act.

Why does Ergen Kanner have the sovereignty to block me on Twitter? Yeah, well anyway Let's let's get back here whenever I've still got other things to get to here, and I've been going a little bit too far.

But anyways, let's let's get back to what even your camera said there was that rape in Detroit today. And if we have no will in life, then.

Why fight if we have no will in life. Who believes that? Not reformed folks. We have a will and the redeemed will wishes to see the purpose of God accomplished and There is no contrast there's a contradiction here.

Why is it. I want to know why is it? That people like Ergen and Ymir Kanner have to constantly misrepresent the people. That they are saying are wrong. How many times do we have to hear these folks say that we don't believe men has a will.

Man does have a will it is enslaved to sin. John chapter 8. Jesus taught it he who commits sin is the slave of sin doesn't mean the will is destroyed. It means it's enslaved. That's just how it works.

This is the best of all worlds and we should be pleased.

This is the best of all worlds that we should be pleased now this actually goes back to Voltaire and and to the French and light the French, you know period of time around the Enlightenment and this is the best of all worlds.

No, actually, that's the Molinus view. That's not that that's not really. That's not really the the Calvinist view. This is the world that God decreed and He has his purposes for it and he will glorify himself in those events.

That doesn't mean that there couldn't have been a world where everybody was just sweetness and light, but God has his purposes in Bring about this world and these events to glorify himself and any little creature Who thinks himself so wise and so insightful and so smart and so?

Intelligent that he can climb up on his two legs and look at God and judge him when God has said I am the one accomplishing my purpose in the heavens and the earth and Raise a little objection about well, that must mean this is the best of all worlds is truly foolish is truly truly foolish and Certainly not Functioning on a biblical level now, I just looked in channel again.

Here is an irony Doc is on TBN right now. It must be the way of the master yes, uh-huh. Oh, yeah the way the master Watchtower show is on. Yeah, well if it's the Watchtower or the Mormonism show, that's pretty much me.

I did I did most of those actually so That is that does make me feel odd and strange that I am on TV and at the same time that I'm doing this. Because I can guarantee a TVN wouldn't have me on if I was talking about this.

At least not for very long. I would get canter eyes as well. But it is so cool I'm sitting here talking about this at the same time that we're we're on we're on TV and what a. That's that that is rather ironic and good at the same time.

Well, we will continue on with emu canter. But I have gone well into the next section and we only have 45 minutes left on the program. Anyways, and So let's move on to the next Portion of our three today and let's get a little bit more into the J. Smith Adnan Rashid debate.

We've been listening to Adnan talking about the Gospel of Thomas and all sorts of other things as Adnan is want to do and So we we press on with that where we last left off and I don't remember where it was either.

But we'll find out together. It's a great adventure. Okay, this is this is your general this is this is what happens when you have an an Islamic apologist who does not want to Apply the same standards to the Quran that he's going to apply to the New Testament.
