What if staying silent is actually missing out on something divine? Join us in this episode as we explore the transformative power of words with Chaplain Terry Warner. Dive into the biblical foundations of verbal expression, where Terry contrasts the impactful teachings of James 3 and Hebrews 4:12 with the story of Mayor Baba, who took a 44-year vow of silence. We discuss how silence can sometimes mean a missed opportunity to use our God-given talents for good. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural insights, Terry emphasizes the critical role of speaking God's word in worship, spreading the gospel, and invoking blessings in our lives.

And now the podcast.

00:01:28.802 --> 00:01:43.953
Hello, friend Chaplain Terry Warner here this is Silent Is Not Always Golden July, the 15th 2024, and the season and episode number is S4E29.

00:01:43.953 --> 00:01:52.856
Your foundation scripture will be James, chapter 3.

00:01:52.856 --> 00:02:02.326
The Holy Bible, as of September of 2023, is the most published book of all times, with five billion copies.

00:02:02.326 --> 00:02:03.468
That's B, it's with a B billion.

00:02:03.468 --> 00:02:12.453
The British and Foreign Bible Society estimate that 5 to 7 billion copies have been printed over a 1,500 year span.

00:02:12.453 --> 00:02:18.508
The Holy Bible is our divine creator, speaking to us and giving us divine guidance.

00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:33.995
Mayor Baba in 1925, began 44 years of silence because a so-called Muslim woman gave him this directive in an effort to find his own spiritual destiny.

00:02:33.995 --> 00:02:41.592
You would think Jesus, who was the Son of God, also known as the Word of God, made flesh.

00:02:41.592 --> 00:02:49.849
While Baba's name definition means sponge cake, jesus' name definition is the word.

00:02:49.849 --> 00:02:57.507
So I'm going to nickname Bob here, baba here, sponge cake.

00:02:57.507 --> 00:02:58.670
Just saying.

00:02:58.670 --> 00:03:09.542
Just think how much more contribution to our planet could have been made by using his God-given talents and using words to communicate.

00:03:11.263 --> 00:03:14.324
I was told when I was a child to be seen and not heard.

00:03:14.324 --> 00:03:26.634
I was supposed to be learning and gathering knowledge so that when I grew up, I could or would be a contributor to society and my own spiritual growth through the use of words and vocabulary.

00:03:26.634 --> 00:03:33.758
One great attribute of having the ability to speak was the freedom to worship and give glory to God.

00:03:33.758 --> 00:03:45.580
Not speaking is one thing, but making others do all the talking while you remain silent is, in my opinion, selfish, controlling and self-seeking pleasure.

00:03:45.580 --> 00:03:53.258
If you want to be like sponge cake, then go ahead and find yourself a mountain and live there by yourself.

00:03:53.258 --> 00:03:58.657
Do not try or expect me to cater to your idiocy.

00:03:58.657 --> 00:04:06.206
Well, chaplain Terry, why are you so set against being silent?

00:04:06.206 --> 00:04:12.617
Because being silent before God is a necessary attribute for finding the will and peace of God in your life.

00:04:12.617 --> 00:04:21.704
If we were supposed to be quiet, then spreading the gospel would be a sin.

00:04:21.704 --> 00:04:28.178
Salvation comes to the man who believes in his heart that God raised him from the dead, and confessing with your mouth leads to salvation.

00:04:28.178 --> 00:04:53.067
I'm not speaking about an individual who is unable to speak, but I'm referring to a 19-year-old that has been convinced that remaining silent at all costs robs himself and robs others of a God-given ability, and, because of his determination to remain silent for 44 years, he doesn't have a clue what he's actually done.

00:04:54.670 --> 00:04:59.660
Look at Hebrews 4.12, for the word of God is quick or it's alive.

00:04:59.660 --> 00:05:02.826
Hebrews 4.12.

00:05:02.826 --> 00:05:13.052
For the word of God is quick or it's alive and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit and joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

00:05:13.052 --> 00:05:15.757
You can't get that by being silent.

00:05:15.757 --> 00:05:17.887
God created this world.

00:05:17.887 --> 00:05:19.732
How With words?

00:05:19.732 --> 00:05:22.858
How does God do anything With words?

00:05:23.785 --> 00:05:27.956
Jesus, the Son of God, is called the Word of God.

00:05:27.956 --> 00:05:29.940
His name is the Word.

00:05:29.940 --> 00:05:35.209
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.

00:05:35.209 --> 00:05:50.136
It is through the active speaking of the Word of God that the individual can control and hold back the curses and sins of the devil and use our tongue to bring about the blessings of God in our life.

00:05:50.136 --> 00:06:01.036
Joshua 24, 14 and 15, 14 says Now, therefore, fear the Lord and serve him in sincerity and in truth.

00:06:01.036 --> 00:06:17.334
It doesn't say serve him in silence and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood that's the river Euphrates they're talking about and in Egypt, and serve yourself the Lord.

00:06:17.334 --> 00:06:32.557
And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose yourself this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are dwelling in.

00:06:32.557 --> 00:06:47.175
But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord Back to sponge cake and him giving the world at least this world or his world the silent treatment.

00:06:48.985 --> 00:06:57.834
You understand that everything God made in Genesis 1 was made out of love, faith, goodness, compassion and all of God's characteristics, and each time God said it was good.

00:06:57.834 --> 00:07:04.718
Nowhere did he say silence was a way of making stuff or creating things.

00:07:04.718 --> 00:07:16.170
At the end of his creation he made man and at last he then said he said he blessed them and it was very good.

00:07:16.170 --> 00:07:18.050
How do you bless somebody?

00:07:18.050 --> 00:07:19.992
By saying something good about them.

00:07:19.992 --> 00:07:22.952
What does the word blessing mean?

00:07:22.952 --> 00:07:27.295
It means to say something good about something or somebody.

00:07:28.286 --> 00:07:30.434
God has good words to say about us.

00:07:30.434 --> 00:07:34.134
The devil has curse words to say about us.

00:07:34.134 --> 00:07:39.757
Through the devil's curses, bad things and calamity come upon this earth and mankind.

00:07:39.757 --> 00:07:47.098
You can live the abundant life and victorious life if you know God's word and apply them to your situation.

00:07:47.098 --> 00:07:58.339
If you are not a child of God, it opens the door for the devil and his demons to come in and take you captive in his world of eternal damnation.

00:07:58.339 --> 00:08:04.608
You go from not speaking any words to speaking words that you don't know what you're saying.

00:08:05.209 --> 00:08:08.458
Using the lord's god, using the lord's name of god, in vain.

00:08:08.458 --> 00:08:12.074
Why is it in vain to use curse words?

00:08:12.074 --> 00:08:15.122
Because you're invoking the name of jesus.

00:08:15.122 --> 00:08:18.649
You're invoking the name of god, and god is not the dammer.

00:08:18.649 --> 00:08:26.761
God did not invent sickness, create sickness, did not invent poverty, did not create poverty.

00:08:26.761 --> 00:08:29.971
He did not invent silence.

00:08:29.971 --> 00:08:31.014
He invented words.

00:08:31.014 --> 00:08:37.158
You should be justified by the words you speak or you should be condemned by the words you speak.

00:08:37.158 --> 00:08:42.634
Show me where poverty, sin and sickness is a blessing.

00:08:42.634 --> 00:08:44.097
You can't do it.

00:08:44.097 --> 00:08:46.231
God didn't create any of that.

00:08:46.231 --> 00:08:51.133
That all happened after the fall and came with the devil and his bunch.

00:08:51.133 --> 00:08:57.355
The devil is for division and destruction because of his everlasting hatred of God.

00:08:58.725 --> 00:09:04.774
God is for having his creation live in an abundant life and fellowshipping with a like-minded individual.

00:09:04.774 --> 00:09:07.774
God loves us and wants us to succeed.

00:09:07.774 --> 00:09:14.518
He does not want you to go around confessing lack and want and need.

00:09:14.518 --> 00:09:16.731
The Lord is my shepherd.

00:09:16.731 --> 00:09:18.552
I shall not want.

00:09:18.552 --> 00:09:24.616
Well, chaplain, terry, god will give you what you need, but he won't give you what you want.

00:09:24.616 --> 00:09:30.769
Oh really, you better study your Bible, because the Lord is my shepherd.

00:09:30.769 --> 00:09:31.812
I shall not want.

00:09:31.812 --> 00:09:33.537
That's want, that's not needs.

00:09:33.537 --> 00:09:38.413
Needs are in there and if we ask the Lord he'll give them to us.

00:09:38.413 --> 00:09:42.467
He'll meet our needs according to his riches and glory, by Christ Jesus.

00:09:42.467 --> 00:09:45.774
He doesn't meet them according to his silence.

00:09:45.774 --> 00:09:50.413
Silence from God to us is not having fellowship with him.

00:09:50.413 --> 00:09:59.330
God is for having his creation live an abundant life and fellowshipping with a like-minded individual.

00:09:59.330 --> 00:10:02.388
God loves us and wants us to succeed.

00:10:02.388 --> 00:10:10.107
God is not mad at us, not bothered to put out with us or given us some kind of sin, sickness or disease.

00:10:10.107 --> 00:10:11.010
To teach us something.

00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:34.503
Deuteronomy 28, chapter, the 28th, the whole chapter, and pay attention to verse 61, which says Also every sickness and every plague which is not written in this book of the law, them will the Lord bring.

00:10:34.503 --> 00:10:37.229
In other words, he will cause to ascend or open the door upon you until you be destroyed.

00:10:37.229 --> 00:10:42.745
God's not the one putting sin, sickness and disease on you, that's the devil, jesus said.

00:10:42.745 --> 00:10:43.727
They asked.

00:10:43.727 --> 00:10:48.864
The leper came to him and said Lord, if you can heal me, I will be made clean.

00:10:48.864 --> 00:10:53.399
He said I will, period, be made clean, and he was healed.

00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:56.284
Be made clean and he was healed.

00:10:56.566 --> 00:10:57.789
We have the mind of Christ.

00:10:57.789 --> 00:11:00.745
1 Corinthians 2.16.

00:11:00.745 --> 00:11:06.148
For who has known the mind of the Lord that we may instruct him, but we have the mind of Christ.

00:11:06.148 --> 00:11:10.605
Is Christ full of sin, sickness, disease or poverty or lack or want?

00:11:10.605 --> 00:11:15.807
No, he's full of blessing and prosperity and winning.

00:11:15.807 --> 00:11:23.032
Jesus Christ has made unto me wisdom, righteousness and sanctification.

00:11:23.032 --> 00:11:25.869
1 Corinthians 1, 30 and 31.

00:11:25.869 --> 00:11:29.184
1 Corinthians 30 says.

00:11:29.907 --> 00:11:41.984
1 Corinthians 1, chapter 1, verse 30 says but of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption.

00:11:41.984 --> 00:11:49.365
31, that, according as it is written, he that glories, let him glory in the Lord.

00:11:49.365 --> 00:11:52.052
How are you going to glory in the Lord if you're being quiet?

00:11:52.052 --> 00:11:55.047
Well, chaplain Terry, I have a song in my heart.

00:11:55.047 --> 00:12:06.249
If you have a song in your heart and it's genuine, then it better put a smile on your face and it better bring others to Christ, or you better check what kind of music you're listening to.

00:12:06.249 --> 00:12:14.347
The God of all comfort who created everything for man is not a God of lack and poverty.

00:12:14.347 --> 00:12:17.809
You'll find the God of all comfort in Corinthians.

00:12:17.809 --> 00:12:25.100
The God of lack, poverty, sin and sickness came when Adam committed treason and gave it over to the devil.

00:12:25.100 --> 00:12:31.368
If it kills, if it steals, if it destroys, it is the devil John 10 10.

00:12:31.368 --> 00:12:37.735
If it is life and in abundance, it is God John 10.10.

00:12:39.043 --> 00:12:42.292
Nowhere in God's word does it say we are running out of anything.

00:12:42.292 --> 00:12:44.407
God is more than enough.

00:12:44.407 --> 00:12:54.054
Of course we should use good common sense and help take care of this land and our earth and our planet and the universe.

00:12:54.054 --> 00:12:59.467
But lack and running out of oil, running out of gold, running out of this, running out of that.

00:12:59.467 --> 00:13:06.870
What we're running out of is idiot politicians printing money so fast that we can't survive.

00:13:06.870 --> 00:13:08.647
That's what we're running out of is paper.

00:13:08.647 --> 00:13:16.289
I digress Nowhere in God's Word does it say we're running out of anything.

00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:28.270
The so-called green energy in a lot of instances is nothing but a power grab by an unelected official want to feed the lost, save them and help feed the world.

00:13:28.270 --> 00:13:34.931
All we have to do is give our hearts to Jesus Christ, read and study his word and do what it says.

00:13:34.931 --> 00:13:44.663
And his word says go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature and these signs shall follow them that believe in my name.

00:13:44.663 --> 00:13:45.985
They shall cast out demons.

00:13:45.985 --> 00:13:51.450
They shall tread upon serpents if they eat any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them.

00:13:51.450 --> 00:13:55.470
Let's just stop a minute and let me re-quote this.

00:13:55.470 --> 00:14:01.754
Really good, hang on, okay, mark.

00:14:02.176 --> 00:14:04.802
Chapter 16, starting in verse 15.

00:14:04.802 --> 00:14:07.958
And he said unto them this is Jesus talking.

00:14:07.958 --> 00:14:12.942
Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

00:14:12.942 --> 00:14:18.982
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believeth not shall be damned.

00:14:18.982 --> 00:14:35.280
And these signs shall follow them that believe In my name shall they cast out devils, they shall speak with new tongues, they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them, and they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.

00:14:35.280 --> 00:14:48.414
So then, after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven and sat on the right hand of God, and they went forth and preached everywhere the Lord working with them.

00:14:48.455 --> 00:15:00.658
We have got so many gadgets and quick things to do except study the Word of God, and our silence is deafening.

00:15:00.658 --> 00:15:08.793
Well, we may talk a lot, but our silence to God is deafening and we drown out the people that need to be saved.

00:15:08.793 --> 00:15:17.662
When are you going to get off of that church pew and get busy bringing others to Christ and giving them eternal life?

00:15:17.662 --> 00:15:26.202
Follow through me on these three points and one decision and then share it with others.

00:15:26.202 --> 00:15:32.333
Number one admit you are a sinner Romans 3.23,.

00:15:32.333 --> 00:15:45.022
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God Romans 6.23, for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

00:15:46.924 --> 00:15:54.241
Number two believe that Jesus paid for your sin at the cross Romans 5 8, but God commended.

00:15:54.241 --> 00:16:07.225
In other words, god chose us and clearly proves his own love for us, but God commands us, his love toward us, and that while we were yet sinners, christ died for us.

00:16:07.225 --> 00:16:18.878
Romans 6.23 again clearly states that we were anti-God and carrying around our walking life a death penalty that we were incapable of escaping.

00:16:18.878 --> 00:16:21.476
God is talking about your soul.

00:16:21.476 --> 00:16:26.922
The death of the body is secondary and will die later through aging or sickness.

00:16:28.230 --> 00:16:33.101
Number three confess Jesus is the Son of God and commit your life to him.

00:16:33.101 --> 00:16:35.917
Spongecake needs to listen to this.

00:16:35.917 --> 00:16:55.030
Romans 10, 9 and 10, that if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and shall believe in your heart that God is raised from the dead, you shall be saved, for with the heart man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation Now.

00:16:55.030 --> 00:17:13.539
Start learning to speak what the Bible says and start walking around and living in love and kindness and compassion and be an asset to this world not a liability, and bring Jesus to people that you don't know.

00:17:14.531 --> 00:17:18.170
That is the way you become a Christian and further the gospel.

00:17:18.170 --> 00:17:20.017
And use the doing words.

00:17:20.017 --> 00:17:22.096
You have a blessed day.

00:17:39.020 --> 00:17:41.201
