After the close of a previous broadcast and network announcements, Pastor Peter J. Peters preaches a sermon he titles "Leaving the 99 and Going After the 1." He uses a stage full of "preacher pulpit props" to argue that a single word can determine a person's eternal destiny. Starting from John 21 and the parable of the lost sheep in Luke 15, he says a shepherd who loves Christ must tend the lambs and contend with wolves. He presents the deity and humanity of Christ from John 8, Isaiah and John 1, and argues that the Jehovah's Witnesses' New World Translation inserts the word "a" into John 1:1. He shows two piles of more than twenty Bible translations, none of which reads "a God." He recalls opposing a teacher named Ben who promoted that view after Pastor Emery's death, and has children act out a skit in which a lamb identifies the false prophet.Peters then turns to Acts 2:38. He contrasts "for the forgiveness of sins" with the Ryrie Study Bible note suggesting "because of," and tells the story of an old preacher whose only rebuttal was "yep, still there." From Acts 4:12 and Luke 1:31 he argues that salvation is in the name Jesus and criticizes the sacred name movement's use of "Yahshua" and its Sacred Scriptures Bethel Edition. He announces he will give away Pastor Applegate's book No Other Name But Jesus and contribute $500 of his own money toward it.Near the end he opens a sealed box to reveal his diplomas and shows his study tools, including Kittel's Theological Dictionary. He argues that the name Yahshua cannot be found in any translation or concordance, and that false prophets make simple things confusing. He closes by criticizing a tract titled "Yahshua to Jesus, Evolution of a Name" and explaining from an interlinear how the name Jesus came into English Bibles.Resources mentioned in this episode:Psalm 79:9-10: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+79%3A9-10&version=KJVExodus 14:15-16: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+14%3A15-16&version=KJV1 Corinthians 16:22: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+16%3A22&version=KJVNumbers 6:24-26: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Numbers+6%3A24-26&version=KJV1 Corinthians 9:11: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+9%3A11&version=KJVDeuteronomy 32:11: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+32%3A11&version=KJVJohn 21:15-17: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+21%3A15-17&version=KJVLuke 15:3-7: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+15%3A3-7&version=KJVMatthew 7:15-16: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+7%3A15-16&version=KJVJohn 8:23-24: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+8%3A23-24&version=KJVIsaiah 43:10-11: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+43%3A10-11&version=KJVIsaiah 48:12: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+48%3A12&version=KJVRevelation 1:17: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+1%3A17&version=KJVJohn 3:16: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+3%3A16&version=KJVJohn 1:1-2: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+1%3A1-2&version=KJVJohn 1:14: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+1%3A14&version=KJVActs 20:26-30: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+20%3A26-30&version=KJVActs 17:11: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+17%3A11&version=KJVActs 2:38: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2%3A38&version=KJVActs 4:12: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+4%3A12&version=KJVLuke 1:31: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+1%3A31&version=KJV2 Corinthians 11:3-4: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Corinthians+11%3A3-4&version=KJV1 John 4:3: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+John+4%3A3&version=KJVRevealing the Man of Sin (booklet)No Other Name But Jesus by Pastor ApplegateNew World TranslationThe Sacred Scriptures, Bethel EditionScofield Reference BibleRyrie Study BibleNew American Standard BibleKing James BibleTheological Dictionary of the New Testament (Kittel)Yahshua to Jesus, Evolution of a Name (tract)Scriptures for America: https://www.scripturesforamerica.orgScriptures for America Worldwide Broadcasting Network: https://www.sfawbn.comAnother Untold StoryJehovah's Witnesses: https://www.jw.orgNortheastern Junior CollegeUniversity of Nebraska School of AgricultureColorado State UniversityBible Training School, Church of ChristBruce Ford's Rodeo School
