The Prodigal Son - Ralph Yankee Arnold 

Hey Jeremy...yes hundreds or maybe thousands of MP3's because they put up a new one every day :) at this link: www.biblelineministries.org/av/audioarchive/listall.php3 I don't think the Podcast link on this page is working but there is a link on the top right hand side of this page. www.biblelineministries.org/stream.html

Fethry Duck Glad you don't anymore. Praise the Lord!

Someone just pointed out to me that this does mean you can lose your salvation. Why would the boy's father who represents God say though he were dead now he is alive that refers to him being spiritually Dead when he willingly left God and God willingly took him back and now he is alive. When you are spiritually dead that represents being lost Ralph Yankee Arnold does not explain anything about his father calling him dead.

Hey, thanks for the comment, hope you are doing good. I just wanted to share some things I've been seeing in the word lately. This is amazing truth. Please let me know your thoughts about it... The writer of Hebrews said that Christ died *FOR THE SINS COMMITTED UNDER THE FIRST COVENANT.* We were not under the first Covenant. Hebrews 9:15 ...For Christ died to set *THEM* free from the penalty of the sins *THEY had committed UNDER THAT FIRST COVENANT.* We did not commit sins under that first Covenant. Also...Jesus said... He was *ONLY* sent to the lost sheep of the house of Isreal. That is not us. Matthew 15:24 But He answered and said, *"I was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of the house of Isreal."* It's all about ISRAEL... not us. Also... Paul said... *Jesus was sent TO REDEEM THOSE WHO WERE UNDER THE LAW.* Galatians 4:4-5 4But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, *BORN UNDER THE LAW, 5So that He might REDEEM THOSE WHO WERE UNDER THE LAW...* We were never under the law. Romans 3:19 Now we know that whatever the law says, *IT SAYS TO THOSE WHO ARE UNDER THE LAW...* Psalm 147:19-20 19He declares His word to *JACOB,* His statutes and judgments to *ISRAEL.* 20He has done this for *NO OTHER NATION;* they do not know His judgments Hallelujah! The second Covenant was ONLY for the ones under the first Covenant, those under the law. Did you catch that? The second Covenant was ONLY for the ones under the first Covenant, those under the law. That would be Israel. Only Israel was under the law. Hebrews 8:10 For this is the *COVENANT* that I will make *WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL...* We were never under a Covenant at all. This is fantastic news for us. God's love, mercy and grace is much greater than we ever thought possible. I believe the Parable of the lost sheep is a picture of God's love for ALL people ever created. The house of Isreal represents the one lost sheep. They were the ONLY ONES that needed to be redeemed from the curse of being under the first Covenant law. This next verse proves that only Israel was lost and needing to be saved. Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save *THAT WHICH WAS LOST.* Apparently not ALL were lost, right? *That's why Jesus said He was ONLY sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.* God agreed to impute Israel's sin to THEM under that Old Covenant. Then He Himself paid the debt THEY incurred under that Covenant. Romans 5:13 For until the law sin was in the world: *BUT SIN IS NOT IMPUTED WHEN THERE IS NO LAW.* Romans 4:8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord *WILL NOT IMPUTE SIN.* *We are blessed because we are not under the law and our sin is not imputed to us!* Never has been and never will be! Praise the Lord! *I truly believe that God's love, mercy and grace is much bigger than we ever thought possible!* *Nobody's sin today is being imputed to them!* That is amazing news! Praise the Lord! What do you think? Let me know.

@@SalvationByGrace Brother, To be honest I dont know what to say, It actually makes perfect sense, I needs to ponder on this one to be honest with you!

Does it mean destruction of the flesh so the soul may be saved? Does it mean he isn't producing spiritual fruit ? I believe once saved always saved by grace through faith just trying to understand is all not wanting to argue any ideas here?

@@thekwoods7234 Biblical death is not about physical death but is about the death that the law would bring to an Israelite. God told Adam the day you eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, you will surely die. But when they ate from that tree, they did not die physically. And likewise look at what Paul said... Romans 7:9 *For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.* Obviously Paul did not physically die.

@@thekwoods7234 may i add the old testament the law of moses we are not saved by the law once God in the new testament came down thru his son Jesus Christ to live on earth and die on the cross for all and for us gentiles to repent are sins and ask Jesus to come into are heart and save us ,by grace and not works of the law.
