God give me strength to overcome every battle I face as a single mom struggling to provide for both of my sons that are special needs. God please help me. As I struggle to buy groceries and as I struggle to pay bills each and every month I know this struggle is only temporary. God I know you will help me overcome. In Jesus name amen! 💕
I know what it feels like to be frustrated with myself and want GOD to just change me in one GO, but I have come to realize it doesn't happen like that for everyone. The journey will take us to GOD. If we accept Him, He will be with us. He is right beside us all the way. Be encouraged. If we keep looking at ourselves, we will see just failure and disappointment. When we look and keep looking at JESUS, we see PEACE and Mercy and love and forgiveness.

This was insightful. May the good Lord continue to keep you both. Dont worry bout them Pastor Doug. God has kept you thus far for a reason. I truly appreciate you and your team. My question is: what time period is Daniel 12:11-13 referring to?
44:28 God intervenes every day! He wakes us up in the morning because if we weren’t protected while we sleep Satan and his angels would kill us, but God’s angels protect us. He protects us while driving and in all our activities otherwise Satan would kill us. The angel of the Lord encamps around about them that fear the Lord. God’s fingerprints are all over our lives because we can’t protect ourselves against the devil.
How can you glorify God when you exercise or play outside ( relaxing ) ? Well remember, you are not you own, you are God's creation. By doing what is good for your body, like eating, drinking healthy and exercising, to maintain your body in good shape, you are glorifying God and showing that you are greatful for what He has given you. God made a whole day specifically for us to rest ( not necessarily sitting the whole day ), and this day is to rest physically and spiritually by seeking His presence and reaching out to Him in prayer. Sabbath is a day for spending time with God. Of course when you do this keep in mind what is good for you, according to the light that God has given you and most importantly according to His word, the Bible. I hope this helps someone wondering about this question like I was.
Hello dear friend! Thank you so much for reaching out! Although Pastor Doug does not reply directly on this platform, we have an incredible team here at Amazing Facts who would be more than happy to lift up your request in prayer! Remember to keep the Faith, and that with God all things are possible! God Bless, -The Amazing Facts Team
If you are working on the Sabbath in a Hospital, the money you make that day is not yours, it belongs to God as we are to serve or help on the sabbath without pay, so the solution is that part of your paycheck is Gods. Use it to buy Bibles, help feed the homeless, etc.
As for working "good" jobs on the Sabbath I'd suggest alternating schedules. I recall reading this is how the watchmen of biblical times did it since they needed watchmen at the gates at all times. I don't think it is in the Bible though. I read it in a history book or article. As for UFOs, some would say the chariots of fire could be considered as such.
But "Why" did the Bible only condone lifelong chattel slavery and never once tell us it was wrong? How or why were the Israelites supposed to know that slavery was wrong if God never told them that, and instead only told them that they could if they wanted to? And how to do it correctly? I've never understood this.
Hi. Take the time to go through Exodus chapters 7-14. God fought for Israel. He took them out of slavery/bandage. No one wants to be a slave. It is disobedience to God and following their own way that often caused the people of Israel to end up to be in slavery. God. Look at Exodus 14:19,20....God did so much to keep Pharoah and his army from getting close to the Israelites. God never intends for people to be as slaves. Even in disobedience, laws were put in place on how to properly treat those who were considered as slaves
@@Patience7813 I have read all that. Your focusing on God freeing the Hebrews from slavery in Egypt and I'm talking about the Bible legalizing and condoning lifelong chattel slavery once they get to Israel. And the native Hebrews were excluded from that for the reasons you mentioned. After Egypt God said they could no longer be made slaves again. Because they were His slaves. But foreigners? You might try reading Leviticus 25:44-46; "As for your male and female slaves whom you may have: you may buy male and female slaves from among the nations that are around you. You may also buy from among the strangers who sojourn with you and their clans that are with you, who have been born in your land, and they may be you property. You may bequeath them to you sons after you to inherit as a possession forever. You may make slaves of them, but over your brothers the people of Israel you shall not rule, one over another ruthlessly" This is the Bible condoning lifelong chattel slavery. Not just laws regulating it but legalizing it. Which I don't think you were aware of?
@@nickbrasing8786 You are forgetting that back then (before Jesus' came) ALL "foreigners"/"strangers"/"sons of the stranger", etc (any one not of the line of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob) were pagans. Only the Israelites worshiped the true God of all creation. God promised Abraham his descendants would inherit Canaan (the promised land). All those pagans nations were either destroyed, subverted, or made tributary to the rightful owners of the lands. But I believe there was also a 7-year limit for a bondman/bondwoman with the option to continue in service once their 7-year term was over.
A spiritual Jew is a born again, saved, Christian. God's people are in every church. Just because someone says they are SDA does not necessarily mean he (or she) is a Christian...... But in my studies throughout the years of the different teachings/theologies of several Christian churches I believe the teachings of the SDA church are closer to bible true than any other. You're gonna find both good AND bad apples in EVERY barrel you look in to. What should matter to you the most is your own relationship with Jesus. How does He treat you? A loving brother, a lost sheep, a child of God. How do you treat Him? Obedience? Disrespect?
Doug Batchelor and Jean Ross why both of you not preaching, not reading and not teaching these passages of Jeremiah 2:8, Jeremiah 10:21, and Jeremiah 23:1?
I appreciate the question asked by Kidest from Canada. However the question was not answered as asked. Why does the SDA church ordain female pastors? You showed that it's not Biblical, so why does the church do so anyhow?

59:11 I’d like to know why these two verses are being compared as John 6:31 does not say what this woman quoted: John 6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
Hello! This isn't Pastor Doug, it's his account manager. We appreciate your concern, but I come to give you peace. We have had some exciting plans here at Amazing Facts and Pastor Doug's been quite busy putting in his dedication to make them special for everyone. Regarding Bible Answers Live, I understand your concern. We aim to resume broadcasts soon. Please stay tuned to our channels for updates on the next scheduled episode. Thank you for your patience and continued support! -The Amazing Facts Team
@@PastorBatchelor I know Pastor Doug is a busy man. That was not my question. There have been several episodes when Pastor Doug was not there but someone else took his place. Do you have a list of your planned updates for the next scheduled episodes?
Great series! 😊 Although i could be wrong, im starting to think it would be a worst mistake for a man to refuse God & Jesus' Gospel compared to ladies considering prophets and Jesus' apostles were mainly men except Esther.
There were others: Miriam - Exo 15:20 Deborah - Judges 4:4 Huldah - II Kings 22:14 Noadiah - Neh 6:14 An unnamed prophetess that gave Isaiah a son - Isa 8:3 The daughters of Joel 2:28 and Acts 2:17 Anna - Luke 2:36 Philip's four daughters - Acts 21:8&9
Doug Batchlor! Read Revelation 3:12! Who called Jesus four times "my God"? Would a triune God do something like this? As you and Ted Wilson and Mark Findlay proclaimed!? 1 Corinthians 8:6!!!
I understand why many believe women shouldn't be pastors but I still see no Biblical reference that dictates they cannot be ordained. Yes I've seen where the Bible says husbands should keep their wives silent or something but I don't believe it means women can't preach. If they can be prophetesses why can't they be preachers? A prophetess is allowed to speak in church, right? She'd have to. I also saw no rules or regulations in any Levitical laws on the matter. I could be missing something so please inform me if I am.
John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
@@mauricethomas7090 John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
@@aprilpitcher9103 I’m not seeing the part about him getting his sacrifice approved in the verse you posted. The verse states nothing about him getting his sacrifice approved.
Your question would take hours to explain in detail. I'll try to make this short. There is no specific verse that says Jesus had to go have His sacrifice "approved". You need an understanding of the OT Levitical way of dealing with sins. His disciples had this knowledge. The blood of the sacrifice had to be sprinkled on the mercy seat to cleanse the sanctuary of sin (Lev 16). The mercy seat was a solid gold capstone/lid of the ark of the covenant. It was where God would manifest Himself in the Shekinah glory in the earthly temple. This is why the mercy seat was made with the 2 cherubims, one on either side. II Kings 19:15; Ps 80:1; Isa 37:16 It is the throne of God. Mary was not allowed to touch Jesus at His resurrection because He had not yet ascended to His Father. Yet later He came back and told His disciples to touch Him and see that He was flesh and bone and not a disembodied spirit. Does this help?
Acts 2:17And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: Act 2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: Act 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: Act 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Deborah was also a minister and took the Israelite Army to war in Judges chapter 6 there are many women preachers in the Bible and there will be till Jesus comes again. Don't trust man in his teachings only trust the word of God and show yourself approved. It's better to put your trust in the Lord than your confidence in man it's better to put your trust in the Lord and your confidence in princes 118 Verse 8/ 9 KJV
Genesis 9:24 says "And Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his younger son had done unto him." His nyounger son did not just look at Noah he did something to him, a sexual sin and he was cursed. I am surprised with the answer they gave the caller.
They had a higher moral standard back then. Just looking at Noah's naked body was an immoral act against him. This is why his brothers Shem and Japheth walked backwards with a blanket to cover Noah up so they would not commit that same immoral act against him. Of course, if you think kicking back with a bag of popcorn and watching mommy and daddy make a new baby is not immoral, then that's on you....
So many people think Jesus is God the father but forget that Jesus told the pharisees they would see him again standing next to the fathers throne to his right, you also forget Jesus admits he can do nothing without the father for he only does as he sees the father do, you guys also forget Jesus said that when he judges he's not alone that the father is with him, you forget Jesus also said that I and the father are one, that didn't mean that jesus is just the father in the flesh! When Jesus said he and the father are one he meant how they are one in nature, one with how they think, love, show mercy and grace! Your child doesn't just remind people of you by how they look but also how they act at times which can remind people of you making you guys one. To say different is saying that the new testament which is about the son of God is a lie, it's like saying God lied to us and pretended to be his own son making him a liar and a sinner, so if the new testament is about the son of God being our lord and savior and the father giving his only begotten son the world, then why would God perpetrate his only begotten son? There seems to be enough proof out the mouth of Jesus that says they aren't the same being, Jesus is the son of GOD and i believe my bible don't lie when it says jesus is the son of God! To say different means jesus lied and god lied about his only begotten son and that all these scriptures are a lie! The difference between me and your kind is i believe God really sent his ONLY begotten son, NOT THE FATHER IN THE FLESH, you guys think God was jesus in the flesh which is technically saying your god lied about having a son and perpetrated him in the flesh! Also if man was created yet and his soul wasn't created until God breathed the breath of Life into his nostrils, plus angels aren't in God's Image so who was God talking to when he said LET US MAKE MAN IN OUR IMAGE? You'll also notice in proverbs it mentions the son of God showing their not the same being! Genesis 1:27 KJV - So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Proverbs 30:3-4 KJV - I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy. Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell? John 1:18 KJV - No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. John 3:16-18 KJV - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Hebrews 11:17 KJV - By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 1 John 4:9 KJV - In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Hebrews 12:2 KJV - Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. John 5:19 KJV - Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. John 8:16 KJV - And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. John 14:10 KJV - Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. John 8:18 KJV - I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. John 17:1 through 5 KJV - These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 1 Timothy 2:4 through 6 KJV - Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. Matthew 28:18 KJV - And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Galatians 1:1 KJV - Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) John 5:18 KJV - Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. 1 John 2:22 KJV - Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Ephesians 4:13 KJV - Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: Luke 18:19 KJV - And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. I said it before and I'll say it again, I believe God sent his only begotten son and gave him the world, you guys believe God the father was Jesus in the flesh, technically meaning your God perpetrated his own son in the flesh! either you believe God sent his only begotten son or you believe he was perpetrating his only begotten son in the flesh, which is it? To claim God the father was Jesus in the flesh is denying the son by saying it was the father, also to say Jesus was really God the Father sounds more like a belief of the world not actual scripture, I believe people make more out of scripture when it's pretty clear! Jesus being the father in the flesh is just man's theory on interpreting scripture!
Let us make man in our image our means the angels and God ! Who Do You Think Jesus was talking to? The Lord puts the Slumbers on some Romans 11:8 so they can't understand
@@KeyofDavid5778 you do get your denying the son by that claim, do you get that your thoughts are not that different from atheist, you guys agree Jesus walked the Earth you guys agree Jesus isn't the son of God but why is the only difference, you believe Jesus was real just God in the flesh while atheist believe Jesus was just on something!
@@producerartistjizzle4089 Genesis 1:26 kjv and God said, let us make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the fall of the year, and over cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:27 so God created man in his own image in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them. I don't speak words I post Bible verses ......who do you think our is? Who is God talking to? It says and God said but people still do not have eyes to see and ears to hear something that God said and still they won't believe it cuz a man's teachings and traditions of clouded their mind This is from the sixth day creation where God created all the races this is documented in Revelation 20 verse 24 is Nations nations in the Greek mean ethnos ethnos means the ethnic people as all races were created on the 6th day. It's a shame that when I wrote in the Pastor D@ug he said that Adam and Eve had genetic diversity? I mean man's teachings and traditions make the word of God void. Mark 7:8 for laying aside the Commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups, as many other such like things you do. 9. And he said unto them, full will you reject the Commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mark 7:13 KJV making the word of God of none affect fear tradition, which he have delivered, and many such like things do ye.
@@producerartistjizzle4089 I have no idea you're calling me an atheist I went to SDA school for 9 years then went to church for them for over 15 and started reading the Bible by myself when I was 42 years old in the last 20 years I've been reading the Bible and not listening to man's teachings and traditions. Religions are denominational denomination means division God doesn't want his word divided he wants his children to study Jesus Christ teachings which are his Parables when he was on this Earth. John 1:1/3 in the beginning was the word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God all things were made by him and without him and was not anything made that was made. John 1 14 and the Word was made flesh and dwelt Among Us for we beheld his glory, the glory as of the begotten of the father, full of grace and truth. The word became flesh the word became flesh ... the Word was God the word became flesh .... ....that's the scripture speaking not another man. I'm not going to argue with you. God bless you
I really dont believe that women should be pastors,or preach .There are so many other things that women can do, in the church, an out . We can visit the sick ,we can take food for the old an helpless ,,keep their company , so many older pple are so lonely etc etc . Because we are not participating in church ,where there are many to participate ,dont mean we are not doing our best to do Gods work , in our capacity . Thank you both God bless you.
What about Deborah she led the children of Israel to war against the Philistines there's many women preachers in the Bible what it means is women shouldn't shatter in church if you look the words up in the original doctor Strong's Concordance and you use a KJV Bible
Deborah was a prophet and a judge you can read about her and Judges chapter 4 and chapter 5 there are many women preachers in the Bible don't trust man's teachings and traditions and be accountable and look it up for yourself.
If a man came up to you and said it is OK to kill your neighbor. take his unwilling wife to your bed, sell his children OR A woman came up to you and said NO these things are wrong Which one would you believe? The woman that should not be speaking on such religious matters anyway? Or the man, perhaps trained in the indoctrinated teachings of his church? If you belong to Jesus then God recognizes no such racist and judgemental attitudes: Gal 2:8 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither MALE nor FEMALE: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."
@proudparrotparent815 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: Act 2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: Act 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: Act 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Very clear men and women will prophesy God's true word in the KJV Bible and teach Jesus's Parables and teachings ! Have a blessed day in Jesus Christ's name
what makes you think there weren't? cause the bible doesnt mention any? that means nothing, the bible is so full of contradictions, how would you know to believe it or not if it said there was?
Doug Batchelor, and Jean Ross, why both of you, not mentioning, not preaching, not reading, and not teaching these passages Romans 2:16. Romans 16:25. 2 Timothy 2:8. 2 Corinthians 12:16? Why is it majority of pastors, preachers, and teachers, including both of you everytime doing your presentation these scripture passages are always left out...never mentioned, never studied? Are there scripture prohibitions, restrictions not to discuss about? If both of you are truly so called men of God, why not, as the whole intent and purpose of the gospel of Jesus Christ is to bring light into this dark world for the knowledge of eternal salvation, and also that is to prove that both of you are really ambassadors or representatives of Jesus Christ...otherwise false prophets in its case.

Rom 2:16 "In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel." Rom 16:25 "Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began," II Tim 2:8 "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:" II Cor 12:16 "But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile." I don't get the point? Are you calling someone a false teacher because they don't mention those above texts? Rom 2:16 - Adventists DO preach a judgement by God. There are 3 in fact but this particular verse relates to the FINAL Judgement (also mentioned in Joel 3:9-15) Rom 16:25 - Adventists teach Jesus on the cross. Salvation by grace through faith. THIS was the mystery kept secret since the world began up to that time. II Tim 2:8 - Yep, born of the seed of David and raised from the dead. II Cor 12:16? I don't see how this relates......
PSA 24 , the Angel was on earth accompanied him( Jesus ) Back into heaven , Rev ,4,5 & 6, the SDA Church promotes women ordination on voting , we should not vote on issued that the bible is not totally clear on, so if someone go to the general conference n said we believed in homosexuality or killing , n they allowed voting on this issue, the humans sin full behavior will superseded God's word , u c the danger our leaders find themselves in , in bed with Jezebel Balaam &Balak Rev 17, v,18 Jer 23 v1-6. Eating from Jezebel table 1 kings 18, 19
Actually all the references to Jezebel in the OT are actual historic accounts not prophetic or symbolic in nature (except where her death was foretold). In the NT the word appears only once (Rev 2:20) and is, of course associated with Balaam and the Nicolatians (Rev 2:6, 9 and 15). This warning about accepting pagan practices and teachings is given throughout the 7 messages to the 7 churches in one way or another.
Excellent! Thank You 💫
Thank you PASTOR. To HAPPY SABBATH and all Father's Day 😂. AMEN
God give me strength to overcome every battle I face as a single mom struggling to provide for both of my sons that are special needs. God please help me. As I struggle to buy groceries and as I struggle to pay bills each and every month I know this struggle is only temporary. God I know you will help me overcome. In Jesus name amen! 💕
All the best! Good luck 😊
God will provide He is a God of all knowing He knows your needs just even before you ask.
Too bad I'm married or else I'd marry you and help you.
Lady believe what you're asking God he hears every cry trust him my dear because God is faithful
God bless Doug batchelor in his ministry and may the Lord bless everyone who hears it. This world needs lots of prayer. God bless everyone
I know what it feels like to be frustrated with myself and want GOD to just change me in one GO, but I have come to realize it doesn't happen like that for everyone. The journey will take us to GOD. If we accept Him, He will be with us. He is right beside us all the way. Be encouraged. If we keep looking at ourselves, we will see just failure and disappointment. When we look and keep looking at JESUS, we see PEACE and Mercy and love and forgiveness.
Amen Amen Amen........
Yes, I agree totally. 🙏🙋

Praying for you.
God will hold you close
44:28 God intervenes every day! He wakes us up in the morning because if we weren’t protected while we sleep Satan and his angels would kill us, but God’s angels protect us.
He protects us while driving and in all our activities otherwise Satan would kill us. The angel of the Lord encamps around about them that fear the Lord. God’s fingerprints are all over our lives because we can’t protect ourselves against the devil.
How can you glorify God when you exercise or play outside ( relaxing ) ?
Well remember, you are not you own, you are God's creation.
By doing what is good for your body, like eating, drinking healthy and exercising, to maintain your body in good shape, you are glorifying God and showing that you are greatful for what He has given you.
God made a whole day specifically for us to rest ( not necessarily sitting the whole day ), and this day is to rest physically and spiritually by seeking His presence and reaching out to Him in prayer. Sabbath is a day for spending time with God.
Of course when you do this keep in mind what is good for you, according to the light that God has given you and most importantly according to His word, the Bible.
I hope this helps someone wondering about this question like I was.
Pastors will you pray for me ,I have .

Insolent as always doughy.
Insolent? When?
I didn't see that at all.
Why so hateful?
If you are working on the Sabbath in a Hospital, the money you make that day is not yours, it belongs to God as we are to serve or help on the sabbath without pay, so the solution is that part of your paycheck is Gods. Use it to buy Bibles, help feed the homeless, etc.
As for working "good" jobs on the Sabbath I'd suggest alternating schedules. I recall reading this is how the watchmen of biblical times did it since they needed watchmen at the gates at all times. I don't think it is in the Bible though. I read it in a history book or article.
As for UFOs, some would say the chariots of fire could be considered as such.
But "Why" did the Bible only condone lifelong chattel slavery and never once tell us it was wrong? How or why were the Israelites supposed to know that slavery was wrong if God never told them that, and instead only told them that they could if they wanted to? And how to do it correctly? I've never understood this.
Hi. Take the time to go through Exodus chapters 7-14. God fought for Israel. He took them out of slavery/bandage. No one wants to be a slave. It is disobedience to God and following their own way that often caused the people of Israel to end up to be in slavery. God. Look at Exodus 14:19,20....God did so much to keep Pharoah and his army from getting close to the Israelites. God never intends for people to be as slaves. Even in disobedience, laws were put in place on how to properly treat those who were considered as slaves
@@Patience7813 I have read all that. Your focusing on God freeing the Hebrews from slavery in Egypt and I'm talking about the Bible legalizing and condoning lifelong chattel slavery once they get to Israel. And the native Hebrews were excluded from that for the reasons you mentioned. After Egypt God said they could no longer be made slaves again. Because they were His slaves. But foreigners?
You might try reading Leviticus 25:44-46;
"As for your male and female slaves whom you may have: you may buy male and female slaves from among the nations that are around you. You may also buy from among the strangers who sojourn with you and their clans that are with you, who have been born in your land, and they may be you property. You may bequeath them to you sons after you to inherit as a possession forever. You may make slaves of them, but over your brothers the people of Israel you shall not rule, one over another ruthlessly"
This is the Bible condoning lifelong chattel slavery. Not just laws regulating it but legalizing it. Which I don't think you were aware of?
@@nickbrasing8786 You are forgetting that back then (before Jesus' came) ALL "foreigners"/"strangers"/"sons of the stranger", etc (any one not of the line of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob) were pagans. Only the Israelites worshiped the true God of all creation.
God promised Abraham his descendants would inherit Canaan (the promised land). All those pagans nations were either destroyed, subverted, or made tributary to the rightful owners of the lands.
But I believe there was also a 7-year limit for a bondman/bondwoman with the option to continue in service once their 7-year term was over.

Can anybody please tell me what the difference is between a spiritual Jew and a Seventh-Day Adventist thank you God bless
A spiritual Jew is a born again, saved, Christian. God's people are in every church. Just because someone says they are SDA does not necessarily mean he (or she) is a Christian......
But in my studies throughout the years of the different teachings/theologies of several Christian churches I believe the teachings of the SDA church are closer to bible true than any other.
You're gonna find both good AND bad apples in EVERY barrel you look in to.
What should matter to you the most is your own relationship with Jesus. How does He treat you? A loving brother, a lost sheep, a child of God. How do you treat Him? Obedience? Disrespect?
Doug Batchelor and Jean Ross why both of you not preaching, not reading and not teaching these passages of Jeremiah 2:8, Jeremiah 10:21, and Jeremiah 23:1?
I appreciate the question asked by Kidest from Canada. However the question was not answered as asked. Why does the SDA church ordain female pastors? You showed that it's not Biblical, so why does the church do so anyhow?
Thanks so much for your program .may our Lord continue to bless you both Denis from Kelowna BC Canada
Hello friend, thank you so much for your kind words! Pastor Doug does not respond directly here on this social media platform but we will be sure to pass along your kind words to him! May God bless you, and your encouragement towards Amazing Facts is very appreciated!

59:11 I’d like to know why these two verses are being compared as John 6:31 does not say what this woman quoted: John 6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
It's actually John 5:31. 😊
@@Patience7813 well that makes more sense. All you have to do to get context is to read John 5:30, 31.
When is the next Bible Answers Live supposed to be? It's been 3 weeks already.

@@PastorBatchelor I know Pastor Doug is a busy man. That was not my question. There have been several episodes when Pastor Doug was not there but someone else took his place.
Do you have a list of your planned updates for the next scheduled episodes?
Why you Doug Batchelor and Jean Ross why not mentioning Revelation 2:1,2,3?
This a Q&A forum. People call in questions to get answers. Did the subject of the Church of Ephesus come up in one of the questions?
Great series! 😊
Although i could be wrong, im starting to think it would be a worst mistake for a man to refuse God & Jesus' Gospel compared to ladies considering prophets and Jesus' apostles were mainly men except Esther.
There were others:
Miriam - Exo 15:20
Deborah - Judges 4:4
Huldah - II Kings 22:14
Noadiah - Neh 6:14
An unnamed prophetess that gave Isaiah a son - Isa 8:3
The daughters of Joel 2:28 and Acts 2:17
Anna - Luke 2:36
Philip's four daughters - Acts 21:8&9
Doug Batchlor! Read Revelation 3:12! Who called Jesus four times "my God"? Would a triune God do something like this? As you and Ted Wilson and Mark Findlay proclaimed!? 1 Corinthians 8:6!!!
42:22 it’s called the Bible.
I understand why many believe women shouldn't be pastors but I still see no Biblical reference that dictates they cannot be ordained. Yes I've seen where the Bible says husbands should keep their wives silent or something but I don't believe it means women can't preach. If they can be prophetesses why can't they be preachers? A prophetess is allowed to speak in church, right? She'd have to. I also saw no rules or regulations in any Levitical laws on the matter. I could be missing something so please inform me if I am.

Does anyone know the Bible verse or verses that teaches Jesus went to heaven to have his sacrifice approved?
John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
@@aprilpitcher9103 I’m not seeing the part about him getting his sacrifice approved in the verse you posted.
@@mauricethomas7090 John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
@@aprilpitcher9103 I’m not seeing the part about him getting his sacrifice approved in the verse you posted. The verse states nothing about him getting his sacrifice approved.
Your question would take hours to explain in detail. I'll try to make this short. There is no specific verse that says Jesus had to go have His sacrifice "approved".
You need an understanding of the OT Levitical way of dealing with sins. His disciples had this knowledge. The blood of the sacrifice had to be sprinkled on the mercy seat to cleanse the sanctuary of sin (Lev 16).
The mercy seat was a solid gold capstone/lid of the ark of the covenant. It was where God would manifest Himself in the Shekinah glory in the earthly temple. This is why the mercy seat was made with the 2 cherubims, one on either side. II Kings 19:15; Ps 80:1; Isa 37:16
It is the throne of God.
Mary was not allowed to touch Jesus at His resurrection because He had not yet ascended to His Father. Yet later He came back and told His disciples to touch Him and see that He was flesh and bone and not a disembodied spirit.
Does this help?
Acts 2:17And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
Act 2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
Act 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
Act 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Deborah was also a minister and took the Israelite Army to war in Judges chapter 6 there are many women preachers in the Bible and there will be till Jesus comes again.
Don't trust man in his teachings only trust the word of God and show yourself approved. It's better to put your trust in the Lord than your confidence in man it's better to put your trust in the Lord and your confidence in princes 118 Verse 8/ 9 KJV
Women were considered unclean in those days , specially during their Menstrual.
Titus 1:5-9 / 2:3-5 1 Timothy 2:12 / 3:1-14 Proverbs chapter 31
Genesis 9:24 says "And Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his younger son had done unto him." His nyounger son did not just look at Noah he did something to him, a sexual sin and he was cursed. I am surprised with the answer they gave the caller.
They had a higher moral standard back then. Just looking at Noah's naked body was an immoral act against him. This is why his brothers Shem and Japheth walked backwards with a blanket to cover Noah up so they would not commit that same immoral act against him.
Of course, if you think kicking back with a bag of popcorn and watching mommy and daddy make a new baby is not immoral, then that's on you....
Now that's an amazing answer.
David, very good answer.
It had to do with Eve.
28:13 sports was created by the Jesuits
"men do not make very good mothers" - hahaha, it is good to have a sense of humor...
22:20 your not saved by pronunciation or heredity
So many people think Jesus is God the father but forget that Jesus told the pharisees they would see him again standing next to the fathers throne to his right, you also forget Jesus admits he can do nothing without the father for he only does as he sees the father do, you guys also forget Jesus said that when he judges he's not alone that the father is with him, you forget Jesus also said that I and the father are one, that didn't mean that jesus is just the father in the flesh! When Jesus said he and the father are one he meant how they are one in nature, one with how they think, love, show mercy and grace! Your child doesn't just remind people of you by how they look but also how they act at times which can remind people of you making you guys one. To say different is saying that the new testament which is about the son of God is a lie, it's like saying God lied to us and pretended to be his own son making him a liar and a sinner, so if the new testament is about the son of God being our lord and savior and the father giving his only begotten son the world, then why would God perpetrate his only begotten son? There seems to be enough proof out the mouth of Jesus that says they aren't the same being, Jesus is the son of GOD and i believe my bible don't lie when it says jesus is the son of God! To say different means jesus lied and god lied about his only begotten son and that all these scriptures are a lie! The difference between me and your kind is i believe God really sent his ONLY begotten son, NOT THE FATHER IN THE FLESH, you guys think God was jesus in the flesh which is technically saying your god lied about having a son and perpetrated him in the flesh! Also if man was created yet and his soul wasn't created until God breathed the breath of Life into his nostrils, plus angels aren't in God's Image so who was God talking to when he said LET US MAKE MAN IN OUR IMAGE? You'll also notice in proverbs it mentions the son of God showing their not the same being!
Genesis 1:27 KJV - So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Proverbs 30:3-4 KJV - I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy. Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?
John 1:18 KJV - No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
John 3:16-18 KJV - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Hebrews 11:17 KJV - By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
1 John 4:9 KJV - In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
Hebrews 12:2 KJV - Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
John 5:19 KJV - Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
John 8:16 KJV - And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
John 14:10 KJV - Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
John 8:18 KJV - I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
John 17:1 through 5 KJV - These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
1 Timothy 2:4 through 6 KJV - Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
Matthew 28:18 KJV - And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Galatians 1:1 KJV - Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
John 5:18 KJV - Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
1 John 2:22 KJV - Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
Ephesians 4:13 KJV - Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
Luke 18:19 KJV - And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
I said it before and I'll say it again, I believe God sent his only begotten son and gave him the world, you guys believe God the father was Jesus in the flesh, technically meaning your God perpetrated his own son in the flesh! either you believe God sent his only begotten son or you believe he was perpetrating his only begotten son in the flesh, which is it?
To claim God the father was Jesus in the flesh is denying the son by saying it was the father, also to say Jesus was really God the Father sounds more like a belief of the world not actual scripture, I believe people make more out of scripture when it's pretty clear! Jesus being the father in the flesh is just man's theory on interpreting scripture!
Let us make man in our image our means the angels and God ! Who Do You Think Jesus was talking to? The Lord puts the Slumbers on some Romans 11:8 so they can't understand
@@KeyofDavid5778 you're so wrong because the Angels aren't even in God's image the soul of man wasn't created until God gave him the breath of Life
@@KeyofDavid5778 you do get your denying the son by that claim, do you get that your thoughts are not that different from atheist, you guys agree Jesus walked the Earth you guys agree Jesus isn't the son of God but why is the only difference, you believe Jesus was real just God in the flesh while atheist believe Jesus was just on something!
@@producerartistjizzle4089 Genesis 1:26 kjv and God said, let us make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the fall of the year, and over cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:27 so God created man in his own image in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.
I don't speak words I post Bible verses ......who do you think our is?
Who is God talking to? It says and God said but people still do not have eyes to see and ears to hear something that God said and still they won't believe it cuz a man's teachings and traditions of clouded their mind
This is from the sixth day creation where God created all the races this is documented in Revelation 20 verse 24 is Nations nations in the Greek mean ethnos ethnos means the ethnic people as all races were created on the 6th day.
It's a shame that when I wrote in the Pastor D@ug he said that Adam and Eve had genetic diversity? I mean man's teachings and traditions make the word of God void.
Mark 7:8 for laying aside the Commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups, as many other such like things you do.
9. And he said unto them, full will you reject the Commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
Mark 7:13 KJV making the word of God of none affect fear tradition, which he have delivered, and many such like things do ye.
@@producerartistjizzle4089 I have no idea you're calling me an atheist I went to SDA school for 9 years then went to church for them for over 15 and started reading the Bible by myself when I was 42 years old in the last 20 years I've been reading the Bible and not listening to man's teachings and traditions.
Religions are denominational denomination means division God doesn't want his word divided he wants his children to study Jesus Christ teachings which are his Parables when he was on this Earth.
John 1:1/3 in the beginning was the word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God all things were made by him and without him and was not anything made that was made.
John 1 14 and the Word was made flesh and dwelt Among Us for we beheld his glory, the glory as of the begotten of the father, full of grace and truth.
The word became flesh the word became flesh ...
the Word was God the word became flesh ....
....that's the scripture speaking not another man.
I'm not going to argue with you. God bless you
I really dont believe that women should be pastors,or preach .There are so many other things that women can do, in the church, an out . We can visit the sick ,we can take food for the old an helpless ,,keep their company , so many older pple are so lonely etc etc . Because we are not participating in church ,where there are many to participate ,dont mean we are not doing our best to do Gods work , in our capacity . Thank you both God bless you.
What about Deborah she led the children of Israel to war against the Philistines there's many women preachers in the Bible what it means is women shouldn't shatter in church if you look the words up in the original doctor Strong's Concordance and you use a KJV Bible
Deborah was a prophet and a judge you can read about her and Judges chapter 4 and chapter 5 there are many women preachers in the Bible don't trust man's teachings and traditions and be accountable and look it up for yourself.
@@KeyofDavid5778 Good sound advice.
If a man came up to you and said it is OK to kill your neighbor. take his unwilling wife to your bed, sell his children OR
A woman came up to you and said NO these things are wrong
Which one would you believe? The woman that should not be speaking on such religious matters anyway? Or the man, perhaps trained in the indoctrinated teachings of his church?
If you belong to Jesus then God recognizes no such racist and judgemental attitudes:
Gal 2:8 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither MALE nor FEMALE: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."
@proudparrotparent815 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
Act 2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
Act 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
Act 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Very clear men and women will prophesy God's true word in the KJV Bible and teach Jesus's Parables and teachings !
Have a blessed day in Jesus Christ's name
what makes you think there weren't? cause the bible doesnt mention any? that means nothing, the bible is so full of contradictions, how would you know to believe it or not if it said there was?
There are no contradictions in the bible. The conflict arises from your misunderstanding of what the bible is actually saying.
Doug Batchelor, and Jean Ross, why both of you, not mentioning, not preaching, not reading, and not teaching these passages Romans 2:16. Romans 16:25. 2 Timothy 2:8. 2 Corinthians 12:16? Why is it majority of pastors, preachers, and teachers, including both of you everytime doing your presentation these scripture passages are always left out...never mentioned, never studied? Are there scripture prohibitions, restrictions not to discuss about? If both of you are truly so called men of God, why not, as the whole intent and purpose of the gospel of Jesus Christ is to bring light into this dark world for the knowledge of eternal salvation, and also that is to prove that both of you are really ambassadors or representatives of Jesus Christ...otherwise false prophets in its case.

Rom 2:16 "In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel."
Rom 16:25 "Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,"
II Tim 2:8 "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:"
II Cor 12:16 "But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile."
I don't get the point? Are you calling someone a false teacher because they don't mention those above texts?
Rom 2:16 - Adventists DO preach a judgement by God. There are 3 in fact but this particular verse relates to the FINAL Judgement (also mentioned in Joel 3:9-15)
Rom 16:25 - Adventists teach Jesus on the cross. Salvation by grace through faith. THIS was the mystery kept secret since the world began up to that time.
II Tim 2:8 - Yep, born of the seed of David and raised from the dead.
II Cor 12:16? I don't see how this relates......
PSA 24 , the Angel was on earth accompanied him( Jesus ) Back into heaven , Rev ,4,5 & 6, the SDA Church promotes women ordination on voting , we should not vote on issued that the bible is not totally clear on, so if someone go to the general conference n said we believed in homosexuality or killing , n they allowed voting on this issue, the humans sin full behavior will superseded God's word , u c the danger our leaders find themselves in , in bed with Jezebel Balaam &Balak Rev 17, v,18 Jer 23 v1-6. Eating from Jezebel table 1 kings 18, 19
Actually all the references to Jezebel in the OT are actual historic accounts not prophetic or symbolic in nature (except where her death was foretold). In the NT the word appears only once (Rev 2:20) and is, of course associated with Balaam and the Nicolatians (Rev 2:6, 9 and 15). This warning about accepting pagan practices and teachings is given throughout the 7 messages to the 7 churches in one way or another.
