Amen, Arturo, keep glorifying God in all you do, my brother.

All those who knew God the Father knew the Savior, even though he wasn't incarnated until much later. The stiff-necked Jews who reject Jesus to this very day don't know the Father, and Jesus was clear on this point. Even Abraham knew God, and our Savior, Jn 8:56 "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.” Abraham's obedient response to God, by acting on God's request to offer up Isaac, was key; it demonstrated true faith in God, and by extension, the savior. All who know the Father know the Son. I love what John (the disciple whom Jesus loved), in 1 John 5: 11 "And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life".

God's word is perfect in any language when it is indeed His; no matter how you slice it, it will never pass away. God confused the languages in Gen 11, for a reason akin to what He'll do before His second coming, but in reverse. I sense that in God's sovereignty, He not only allows but also oversees the exponential proliferation of the gospel to all creation, and by His good pleasure, He uses the mechanisms seen today. As God’s word tells us, God is a Savior by nature, and his requirements will be fulfilled ONLY in His Son. When we see the advancements that men have made in the “ last “days, I can’t help but see an analogy to what God said in Gen. 11:6 “The Lord said, 'Behold, they are one people, and they all have the same language. And this is what they began to do, and now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for them”. Remember, almost immediately after God’s proclamation, the flood happened. The “Successor” event to our current condition will be (IMO), Jesus’ second coming. Of course, for we Christians, we will be removed from this earth before that. God’s wrath is not for His “Bride”, but for unbelievers. Through Paul, Jesus, and others, we're told that the "Remnant" of Jacob will be protected even at that time, the time of Jacob's trouble, not ours. God put it this way, and this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. I like what both MacArthur, Barnett, along with many students of scripture, say: Enoch was a typology of the Church, Noah was a typology of Israel, and the world is always (unrepentant people without a savior). I realize there are disparate views of Eschatology within the Christian “ranks”, but I’ve taught others ONLY after I’ve studied it with conviction to its soundness. John, I know this might seem random to some, but when you posted God’s word in Mandarin, it prompted a thought in my head, and I shared it, but then again, I’m just a silly guy! God bless.

I watched many of John's videos, and liked every one of them. I'm a 68-year-old "itinerant" pastor who was asked by a small group of about 35 believers to lead their home church about 27 years ago. I was intrigued by John's "Daily Theologian" videos, as he seemed to highlight the teachings of my mentor, John MacArthur. I studied John MacArthur's teachings for over 35 years. I have a burden for churches that neglect the main focus of what they should be teaching. Primarily, I taught from the pulpit in Hispanic community churches via a translator that they provided for me. I'm sickened by "Replacement Theology" and witness the lack of Proper "Eschatology" preached in these "Churches." It's long "bio" and I won't bore you, but I've never taken a dime for ministry work, and I was a "Tent Maker' working full time out of "San Francisco" as a Biochemist. I have 4 children, 10 grandchildren, and am married to my wife of over 45 years. BTW, all of my family profess Jesus as Lord. OK, enough of my bio! Tell me about yourself. Why are you on this channel, which seems to be a blessing?

@Ranesh Guruparan, I hear your exhortation to pray for this soon-to-be married couple, and I've prayed. Believe me, someone must have prayed for my wife and I in 1980, praise God in all things.
