  • 00:23 Mike Ferland: You got this. Uh-oh.
  • 00:26 Never say stop.
  • 00:29 Don't be lazy.
  • 00:31 You need discipline in your life.
  • 00:34 Israel Hanna: What?
  • 00:35 Mike: He needs discipline.
  • 00:37 Israel: What about my ping pong ball?
  • 00:38 Ryan Economy: Josh, break, our ping pong ball's underneath you.
  • 00:40 Mike: No breaking in first set.
  • 00:41 Ryan: I don't want to get squooshed, okay, okay, okay.
  • 00:44 Mike: He's going to get weak.
  • 00:45 Caleb Colson: Guys, what are y'all doing?
  • 00:47 Mike: We're just hanging out. You gave us the day off.
  • 00:49 Caleb: Have you looked at the time?
  • 00:51 Ryan: What time is it?
  • 00:52 Caleb: This is the Shabbat, guys.
  • 00:53 Today we are filming episode 8, "Apostasy."
  • 00:56 Joshua Colson: Hey, you're right.
  • 00:57 That actually works out pretty well 'cause I've done a bunch of
  • 00:59 reps and some pasta would fill in nicely.
  • 01:01 I could get gnocchi.
  • 01:02 Angel hair is even biblical because they're angels.
  • 01:04 Caleb: You know exactly what I'm talking about.
  • 01:06 Joshua: I don't want to do apostasy today.
  • 01:07 I got to pump.
  • 01:09 Caleb: Guys, Yeshua gave a very important message in Revelation
  • 01:12 chapter 2 and 3 to the seven churches.
  • 01:14 It's the same sins that Ephesus and Smyrna and Thyatira, all
  • 01:18 those sins, all those weaknesses I see prevalent in our
  • 01:21 congregations today.
  • 01:23 And we need to focus on that subject matter by going
  • 01:25 someplace cool and awesome to explain it.
  • 01:28 So I think y'all guys should follow me and we should go to
  • 01:31 someplace awesome in Maine.
  • 01:33 Joshua: This almost sounds like a good idea except you don't
  • 01:34 know any awesome places, brother, and that's why I'm your
  • 01:37 older brother.
  • 01:38 Because if there's one thing I know, it's awesome.
  • 01:42 Come on, guys, follow me.
  • 01:44 Got the perfect spot.
  • 01:46 I don't know why I think of it before.
  • 01:48 Caleb: At least you're motivated this time.
  • 01:50 I guess we'll go.
  • 01:51 Mike: I'm bringing my snack.
  • 01:53 So much cardio.

  • 02:41 Caleb: 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3, "But in connection with the
  • 02:45 coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah and our gathering
  • 02:48 together to meet Him, we ask you, brothers, not to be easily
  • 02:52 shaken in your thinking or anxious because of a spirit or a
  • 02:56 spoken message or a letter supposedly from us claiming that
  • 03:00 the Day of the Lord has already come.
  • 03:02 Don't let anyone deceive you in any way.
  • 03:05 For the Day will not come until after the Apostasy has come and

  • 03:20 Caleb: Doesn't look right, guys.
  • 03:21 Mike: I don't think this is the right place at all.
  • 03:23 My goodness.
  • 03:25 Caleb: This path is way too narrow.
  • 03:26 We're not going to make it through, Josh.
  • 03:28 Joshua: Look, if I can fit in pants every day of my life, you
  • 03:30 can get through this path.
  • 03:31 Mike: Josh, this--we are not going in the right direction.
  • 03:33 Guys, is it possible that he's a false leader?
  • 03:39 Caleb: He just dropped the false word, the F word.
  • 03:42 Joshua: In no way is that possible.
  • 03:44 My initials are J.C. I'm Jewish.
  • 03:46 My mother's name is Mary.
  • 03:47 I wasn't divinely conceived, but I'm almost--I don't want to
  • 03:50 say it.
  • 03:51 Four to five ain't bad.
  • 03:52 Mike: Yeah, but the ATVs don't fit down the trail.
  • 03:57 Caleb: It's too narrow.
  • 03:58 We should have stayed on the broad path back there.
  • 04:00 Joshua: Literally, the broad path, the wide path leads
  • 04:03 to Walmart.
  • 04:04 Keep that in your mind. That's destruction.
  • 04:06 You don't want to go there. Everything's from China.
  • 04:09 Ryan: Well, I think I got something to say, all right?
  • 04:12 So in the Bible--
  • 04:14 Caleb: Oh, he just pulled out the Bible on you.
  • 04:15 Take that, Josh. Overly holy.
  • 04:19 Ryan: Matthew 7:13, it says, "Enter through the narrow gate.
  • 04:24 For the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to
  • 04:26 destruction," Walmart, "and there are so many who go
  • 04:30 through it.
  • 04:31 How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to
  • 04:34 life, and few find it."
  • 04:36 Joshua Aaron: You guys are talking about the straight
  • 04:37 and narrow.
  • 04:38 And I remember since I was a teenager I've--I would pray all
  • 04:40 the time, "God, let me know the path you want me on.
  • 04:42 I know I want to--I need to serve you, but what does
  • 04:45 that mean?"
  • 04:46 I prayed it and prayed it and prayed it.
  • 04:47 "All I want to do is share the gospel."
  • 04:49 And then once I found music, I just knew that, "This is it."
  • 04:52 And I said, I just said, "Okay, God, forever, this is going to
  • 04:55 be my medium of sharing the gospel."
  • 04:57 And I've been all in ever since.
  • 04:58 And it still stinks, you know, the idea of walking in faith.
  • 05:05 You know, like, in other words, like, you know, I could have
  • 05:07 went a record label route, and I just--I knew I wasn't supposed
  • 05:10 to go that route, so I stayed.
  • 05:11 And then I'd do these big projects and, like, "I don't
  • 05:13 have the money.
  • 05:14 Maybe I should have signed that record label thing 'cause they
  • 05:16 were going to provide the money for that big album in
  • 05:18 Jerusalem, whatever."
  • 05:19 You know, you're always constantly in the straight and
  • 05:21 narrow, but then the signs are divine.
  • 05:23 We have to keep walking on the path that you have until you hit
  • 05:26 the next sign.
  • 05:28 Then God is going to say, "Okay, left or right."
  • 05:30 And then you have to hear the still, small voice.
  • 05:32 And that's the hardest part, I think, as believers, as men
  • 05:34 of God.
  • 05:36 Also, I think everybody and the people who are watching the
  • 05:37 show, just to be reminded of asking God, "Hey, is this the
  • 05:41 plan you have for me?
  • 05:43 Is this the straight and narrow you want in my life, you know?"
  • 05:46 Joshua: Yeah, because, again, if you ask your father for
  • 05:49 something, right, he's not going to throw snakes at you like Ryan
  • 05:51 would, right?
  • 05:53 He's not going to throw stones at you.
  • 05:54 He's going to give you what you asked for, you know.
  • 05:56 So if you're going down that path, there's absolutely no
  • 05:58 shame in saying, "Are you sure?
  • 06:00 Hey, God, is this where I need to be?"
  • 06:02 Because you--out of that motivation of your heart, he's
  • 06:04 going to respond to the fact that you want to know the truth.
  • 06:07 And yeah, so we are on the right path.
  • 06:09 You're welcome, okay?
  • 06:11 Divine guideposts have been sent.
  • 06:12 And I get it.
  • 06:14 It's hard for y'all to go down the narrow path.
  • 06:15 Y'all got like 60 kids amongst the three of you, all right?
  • 06:17 It's easier for us.
  • 06:18 But let's go ahead and head this way.
  • 06:20 Caleb: You may not be a false prophet.
  • 06:21 Let's follow Josh just a little bit longer and see if we get--
  • 06:24 Joshua: See the skepticism in his eyes.
  • 06:26 Forty-one years of following me, and he's like, "I don't
  • 06:28 know, Davey."
  • 06:29 Caleb: Let's go. I trust you.
  • 06:31 Joshua: He's like Goliath and the claymation thing.
  • 06:32 "I don't know, David. David."
  • 06:36 Caleb: 1 John 2:18, "Little children, it is the last hour;
  • 06:40 and as you have heard the Antichrist is coming, even now
  • 06:44 many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the
  • 06:47 last hour."

  • 07:02 Mike: So today you get to meet my dad.
  • 07:04 He has taught me everything I know about the woods, about
  • 07:08 hunting, fishing.
  • 07:09 There's still some debate as to who's the better shot.
  • 07:13 Me.
  • 07:18 Ryan: I've seen better shooting from a toddler.
  • 07:23 This is a joke.
  • 07:26 You are--that's cute.
  • 07:31 That's cute.
  • 07:33 ♪♪♪
  • 07:37 Caleb: I guess that's pretty good?
  • 07:39 Joshua: Hey, you bet it's pretty good.
  • 07:41 Here's the deal.
  • 07:42 When we're out here shooting targets, I mean, it's fairly
  • 07:44 easy to be able to tell the difference between that and
  • 07:46 a turkey, although--
  • 07:48 Caleb: I can tell between a turkey.
  • 07:49 Joshua: You think so?
  • 07:50 Is that how it's so easy to tell between the frozen turkey in
  • 07:52 your hand and a turkey earlier?
  • 07:54 Caleb: If I saw the turkey, I could tell the difference.
  • 07:55 Joshua: That's what I thought.
  • 07:56 Caleb: Guess who got their turkey.
  • 07:58 Joshua: But the Bible says that we're getting towards a time
  • 08:01 where it's not going to be that easy to tell between something
  • 08:03 that's counterfeit like this target and something
  • 08:06 that's real.
  • 08:07 And not only is it going to be harder to tell, but those who
  • 08:09 are counterfeit are actually going out with the intention to
  • 08:11 deceive, and that's what's going to make it so difficult.
  • 08:13 And so, you know, we've talked about this before.
  • 08:15 I think a lot of people have.
  • 08:16 You know, how do you know the difference between counterfeit
  • 08:18 and something that's real?
  • 08:20 Well, people study the real and then exposes what a counterfeit
  • 08:23 is when you see it.
  • 08:24 Okay, but people get caught up in this little idea.
  • 08:27 And I think it trips up most believers when they start to
  • 08:30 examine somebody's behavior and they go, "You know what?
  • 08:33 No, I can't judge. I can't judge 'em."
  • 08:36 And then they start accepting people into their lives who are
  • 08:38 exposing themselves as counterfeits who are sent by the
  • 08:42 enemy to cause problems and issues.
  • 08:44 But they say, "You know what? I can't judge 'em.
  • 08:45 I'm going to go ahead and, you know, let them in."
  • 08:47 But the Bible actually says that we going to know somebody's
  • 08:50 heart by their fruits, by their actions.
  • 08:53 As you begin to see somebody's life and examine it, their
  • 08:56 actions and the things that come out are exposing what's on
  • 08:59 the inside.
  • 09:00 They're exposing the counterfeit intentions.
  • 09:01 They're exposing something that's different than
  • 09:04 God's heart.
  • 09:05 So it's not a judgment to look and say, "I examine that this
  • 09:07 is counterfeit."
  • 09:09 It's wisdom to do so.
  • 09:10 And when you don't know for sure and you're not a theologian and
  • 09:13 you don't know the exact transcript of all the different
  • 09:16 languages, you can simply hold what's happening up against
  • 09:19 God's character and say, "Is what's happening in the
  • 09:22 character of God?"
  • 09:24 Or let's say there's nobody else involved and you're
  • 09:25 feeling something.
  • 09:27 "I'm feeling anxiety.
  • 09:28 I'm feeling pressure.
  • 09:29 I'm feeling pain."
  • 09:31 Does God bring those feelings?
  • 09:32 He does not.
  • 09:33 That means whatever thoughts are being included with those
  • 09:35 feelings are counterfeit.
  • 09:37 They're not of God. They're from the enemy.
  • 09:39 And so I think that sometimes we get very caught up in, "How will
  • 09:42 we know?
  • 09:43 And, oh, I can't hear God's voice about--" When he gave us
  • 09:45 common sense to examine.
  • 09:47 He says, "Hold it up to my example.
  • 09:50 And when you have my example right here and this right here,
  • 09:52 it's pretty clear to see one's a frozen turkey and one's still
  • 09:56 running off in the forest without any Caleb's bullets
  • 09:58 in it."
  • 09:59 Caleb: Guess who got their turkey.
  • 10:00 Caleb: Okay, but this is applicable, but even to our day
  • 10:04 and age, guys, no one knows the authentic because they don't
  • 10:08 read the Word of God.
  • 10:09 And like Josh is saying, yeah, you'll know them by their
  • 10:11 fruits, you hold up the authentic, but they haven't read
  • 10:14 that Word.
  • 10:15 They don't know and have that true personal relationship with
  • 10:18 the heavenly Father, so they're deceived.
  • 10:20 Joshua: If you had to take it back to even simpler steps, step
  • 10:23 one, no God.
  • 10:25 How do you do that?
  • 10:26 You take time to cut everything else out to read his Word and
  • 10:28 see how he's established his promises and what he says he
  • 10:31 will do and what he won't do.
  • 10:32 Two, be still.
  • 10:34 We come out here and be quiet.
  • 10:35 If we do for a second and we hear the wind and we hear the
  • 10:37 leaves rustling and we hear all these things that become white
  • 10:40 noise to us that we block out most of the time.
  • 10:43 He's just sitting there talking to you, but you got to block
  • 10:45 everything else out and focus on him before you can ever know his
  • 10:49 voice and then be able to distinguish it from the
  • 10:51 counterfeit voices.
  • 10:53 Ryan: And, Josh, I think what's really cool too is that when we
  • 10:56 go out our regular day in life, go through supermarket shopping,
  • 11:01 hanging out with people that we like, you can usually tell
  • 11:04 without even asking if they are believers of Christ 'cause
  • 11:07 they'll show it with their--like you said earlier, their fruit.
  • 11:10 They'll show it with, like, their self-control, their
  • 11:11 patience, their love, their kindness, their gentleness, and
  • 11:14 the list goes on.
  • 11:15 They'll show that.
  • 11:17 There's a song, I honestly forget who sings it, but the
  • 11:19 lyrics are, like, "They will know we are Christians by
  • 11:22 our love."
  • 11:23 And I think that's really important too.
  • 11:25 Joshua: So what was that list you just quoted?
  • 11:26 Ryan: It was from Galatians.
  • 11:28 Joshua: And it's called what?
  • 11:30 Ryan: The Fruit of the Spirit.
  • 11:31 Joshua: This is my point. More things.
  • 11:33 Every time we complain that God has left us high and dry, that
  • 11:36 he's not speaking to us, that, "It's too hard to know what to
  • 11:39 do today, and that's why I'm so confused all the time," he
  • 11:42 actually puts lists in the Bible.
  • 11:44 "Here are these things called Fruits of the Spirit.
  • 11:46 These are behavior patterns that you can associate with me.
  • 11:49 What?
  • 11:51 You mean when other people aren't exhibiting these they may
  • 11:53 not be exhibiting my nature?
  • 11:55 What?"
  • 11:57 We complain so much about God when really most of the time is
  • 11:58 we didn't do the work.
  • 12:00 I don't fit in the skinny jeans 'cause I didn't put in the work
  • 12:04 to get in the skinny jeans.
  • 12:05 I put in the work with the whoopie pies, and now I'm in the
  • 12:09 husky cut.
  • 12:11 Caleb: Whoopie pies are good. Joshua: They're delicious.
  • 12:13 Caleb: Do I get to shoot now?
  • 12:15 Joshua: I guess, just as long as, like, a frozen turkey
  • 12:17 doesn't fall out from the back when you pull the trigger.
  • 12:21 Caleb: Guess who got their turkey, ha, ha, ha.
  • 12:25 Caleb: 2 Timothy 4:3-4, "For a time will come when people will
  • 12:29 not put up a sound doctrine.
  • 12:30 Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around
  • 12:34 them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears
  • 12:37 want to hear.
  • 12:38 They will turn their ears away from the truth
  • 12:40 and turn aside to myths."
  • 12:41 Caleb: Today is the last day that target will ever live.
  • 12:49 Yeah, Billy, look at that.
  • 12:52 Joshua: Looks kind of like you froze the target with a hole in
  • 12:54 it down there and replaced it so nobody will know.
  • 12:56 Caleb: Okay, that had to have been bull's eye.
  • 12:57 I can see it from here.
  • 12:58 Joshua: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
  • 13:00 Caleb: Guys, 2 Timothy 4:3-4, Paul was warning about them.
  • 13:03 I see that today, guys, in the modern church.
  • 13:06 I see this, everybody just so excited about false teaching and
  • 13:10 false doctrine and they're not excited for the truth anymore.
  • 13:13 It's ridiculous.
  • 13:15 Israel: Caleb, I can't believe that you're saying this because
  • 13:16 I have actually been reading my Bible and--
  • 13:19 Caleb: Oh, I know that.
  • 13:20 Israel: And studying Jeremiah, the weeping prophet.
  • 13:23 And they call him a weeping prophet for a reason.
  • 13:25 He proclaimed repentance.
  • 13:27 "You know, turn from your wicked ways, otherwise
  • 13:29 judgment's coming."
  • 13:30 And he was prophesying the destruction of Jerusalem, while
  • 13:33 the false prophets, the false prophets always without
  • 13:37 exception have the same message.
  • 13:38 And here's what it is.
  • 13:40 "Everything is fine. It's going to be okay.
  • 13:42 God's in control. Have a great day.
  • 13:44 Go back to sleep."
  • 13:45 Meanwhile, Jeremiah is over there saying--
  • 13:47 Caleb: "Doom and destruction."
  • 13:49 Israel: "Yeah, doom and destruction is coming.
  • 13:51 Repent.
  • 13:52 Turn from your wicked ways, and allow God to cleanse you from
  • 13:55 all of your unrighteousness."
  • 13:57 Now, we can't be righteous enough, we understand that, but
  • 13:59 we cry out in repentance.
  • 14:01 We want our nation and this world needs to do that.
  • 14:04 Mike: All right, guys, you've done great job here with all of

  • 18:44 These people believe that the church has replaced God's
  • 18:47 covenant plans with Israel and those covenants no
  • 18:50 longer matter.
  • 18:52 I mean, you see them saying that the modern Jews of today are the

  • 19:29 It's just rebranded Calvinism.
  • 19:32 People like to say that it's no longer grace, salvation through
  • 19:36 faith, no longer is it predestination according to
  • 19:39 foreknowledge, it's predestination for everyone, and

  • 24:50 seven churches.
  • 24:51 And everybody thinks I get a little too hard on all the false
  • 24:53 movements, but it's really insidious, Satan's plan to
  • 24:57 slightly alter the truth so that people can't take notice of how
  • 25:01 they're straying off the path until they're deep in the woods.
  • 25:04 But there is good news.
  • 25:06 I hardly ever read the end of God's message--Yeshua's message
  • 25:09 to the seven churches, because he gives them a way out.
  • 25:13 "Repent, and you will have this.
  • 25:14 You will escape the tribulation.
  • 25:17 You will escape my wrath.
  • 25:18 Write your name upon my hand.

  • 25:24 If you make the right choice, you're going to get this crazy,
  • 25:27 awesome blessing.
  • 25:28 So I know I should focus more on the good things that Yeshua has
  • 25:32 in playing for us when we hear of a truth and we choose to walk
  • 25:35 in the truth.
  • 25:37 Joshua: I've got Psalm 51 here.
  • 25:38 I'm reminded of King David, where, you know, he was a man

  • 25:51 Like, I think it's a time of repentance for our church, like
