Live from the historic parsonage of the 19th century gospel minister George Norcross in downtown Carlisle, Pennsylvania. It's iron sharpens iron. This is a radio platform in which pastors Christian scholars and theologians Address the burning issues facing the church and the world today.

Proverbs chapter 27 verse 17 tells us. Iron sharpens iron so one man sharpens another. Matthew Henry said that in this passage We are cautioned to take heed with whom we converse and directed to have in view in conversation To make one another wiser and better.

It is our hope that this goal will be accomplished over the next two hours. And we hope to hear from you the listener with your own questions. And now here's your host Chris Arnzen.

Introducing Michael A. Gaydosh and the Book by Thomas Moore

Good afternoon, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, Lake City, Florida and the rest of humanity living on the planet earth. We're listening via live streaming at iron sharpens iron radio .com. This is Chris Arnzen Your host of iron sharpens iron radio wishing you all a happy Wednesday on this 20th day of November 2019 and i'm thrilled to have back on the program someone who is.

Probably.

The most vital Christian. In my own personal life uh outside of God himself uh involved in my salvation involved in my tutelage as a new Christian. And involved as an ongoing friend spanning decades. I'm speaking of my very first pastor who plunged me beneath the waters of baptism Michael A. Gaydosh, and he is founder of solid ground christian books.

Whose website is solid-ground-books .com. And today we are going to be discussing a jewel. He has discovered uh that it has little notoriety today, even though at one time it apparently was such a highly respected book that it Received accolades from the 19th century prince of preachers.

In london england at charlestown spurgeon, we're going to be talking about councils and thoughts for the spiritual life of believers. And this is uh by a relatively unknown author today. Uh thomas moore, but it's my honor and privilege to welcome you back to iron sharpens iron radio.

Michael Gaydosh.

Well, thanks chris yet again. I'm paying yes.

Your came up your name came up quite a lot during that program and it was all favorable. Yes, well, what do you tell our listeners about. Because we do have new listeners that seem to be joining us regularly.

Uh, some some of them are new believers. Some of them are not believers at all sometimes they're people who are searching sometimes they are people of other religions who are probably just waiting with bated breath for me to Represent what they believe at least in their own minds.

They think that my guests are representing them. But uh, We do have as I said, uh new folks joining us every day. So tell our listeners about solid ground christian books.

Well solid ground. I remember that very well.

Yes, in fact deep south founders conference. That's right, uh. Pastor carrie kimbrell, uh that invited me down there and uh. That was a really blessed time and it was uh. Such a blessing to meet people down there that I had never heard from before who loved my show.

Yes, not the roman catholic martyr under king henry the eighth. And not the uh, the founder of moore college in sydney australia, either.

I love that. Oh, of course.

One of the remarkable things as you've already stated about this book. Is that you? who are a very well-read person of Literature the finest of christian literature from the past and the present That you are so excited over this work Written by an author of unknown origin.

Uh, we we know that this man Is not writing god-breathed uh words as in the scripture, so we uh take it for granted that uh, The uh, the book of hebrews whose authorship we are not certain of is is necessary for our life and faith and many books in the old testament as well whose origins were not a hundred percent certain of as far as the human author, but the this being a Non-canonical book that is written by someone of unknown origin for you to be so excited about it That says a lot because obviously In the publishing world people are not necessarily especially today.

This may not have been true Decades or centuries ago where a publisher would look at something and judge it by the value of its contents rather than who wrote it. But today you're rarely even in christian publishing you're not going to get uh publishers who are going to excitedly and immediately accept the manuscripts of those who Are unknown and yet this has got you bubbling over and it's just uh.

In order for me. Now, do we know. Uh, or do you know.

Whether this uh Man thomas moore was a contemporary of spurgeon or whether oh, yeah. In fact, you know what we should do because I don't want to interrupt you in mid sentence. Before you read that I want to go to our first break.

Okay, and if anybody else would like to join us on the air with a question we do have Several people waiting and I hope they're waiting patiently to have their questions asked and answered by you. Okay.

And if anybody wants to join them and get in line our email address is chrisarnson at gmail .com. C h r i s A r n z e n at gmail .com. As always, please at least give us your first name. Your city and state of residence in your country of residence.

If you live outside the usa and only remain anonymous if your question involves a personal and private matter, let's say you Disagree with the theology being expressed today, and you don't want to draw identity.

Identity to yourself. We understand that perhaps you uh are pastor. You disagree with your own elders or your congregation or your denomination over the theology that we're expressing. Today and you want to remain anonymous?

Well, whatever the reason is if it's personal and private we can understand that but if If you're just asking a general question about this book about the theology in this book about the exalt theology we may be discussing today.

I'm, dr. Gary kimbrough pastor bethlehem baptist church in laurel, mississippi. God tells us in james 127 that pure and undefiled religion is a visit to fatherless and widows and their affliction In the providence of god.

Three years ago. I discovered a poor small church outside lusaka Zambia in a township called kabanana who are taking care of 24 orphans. I found them just at the time when they had lost all their funding.

What was I to do? Could I just say god bless you and walk away the situation of the children set heavily upon me. As I was praying concerning this need it came to me. I trust from the lord to tell the orphans plight to a broader audience.

The entire need for their clothing food Education and some medical services is 73 dollars per month per child. If just 50 of us would give 35 a month we could meet the need. Bethlehem baptist church will pay the fee to get the funds there.

Due to the small venue that they have that seats less than 200 people in Manhattan.

The speakers are always absolutely superb and they include dr. Steven J. Lawson Paul Washer the aforementioned Jeff Thomas who's my guest tomorrow on Friday and I interpret on radio a Man who I believe is going to be a household name over the next decade at Reverend Armin Tomassian who is a young pastor, but he has gifts and abilities and wisdom far beyond his youth.

He is absolutely extraordinary. Reverend Armin Tomassian. Richard Caldwell jr. And Andrew Quigley are also on the lineup at this conference. I have never heard either of them speak yet, but since sermon audio comm selected them to speak at this conference I'm sure that they must be magnificent because sermon audio comm is known for being very rightfully finicky when it comes to Picking people that is to represent their ministry.
