| 0:00.0 | Hey, everyone. Welcome to part two of my interview with Dr. Michael Cicino. Yesterday, we covered a ton of subjects. Some of them controversial. We looked at the comments and many people were fired up about conversations on the state of the American church, whether it's doctrines in the Catholic Church, Protestants, the exercise of authority when it comes to exorcisms, |
| 0:24.0 | all kinds of fascinating things that most people are too scared to talk about because, you know, |
| 0:30.8 | you don't want to feel silly. |
| 0:32.0 | You don't want to feel ridiculous having these conversations when we're talking about many things that are unseen, |
| 0:37.9 | that you have to have an article of faith to believe in one way or the other. But with that, |
| 0:43.5 | we cover so much more. And let's go ahead and get back to the conversation now. |
| 0:50.2 | Yeah, I would say there's no need to read any of it, but if you're afraid to read it, |
| 0:54.8 | you should face your fear, and that's just whatever you're afraid of. Being afraid of those books |
| 1:00.1 | is giving the enemy power to operate in your life, and so you should go into any area that you're |
| 1:06.1 | afraid to the extent that you don't become afraid anymore. And the Bible says, perfect love, cast out fear. |
| 1:12.4 | And so my problem with people is not that they're not knowledgeable. It's not that they didn't want |
| 1:17.6 | to read these books. It's that they're afraid of it. And their fear is unbiblical. They should not |
| 1:23.7 | be afraid. They're more than conquerors. And so anytime someone's afraid of doing |
| 1:27.7 | something, I say you should do that, they're like, well, I'm afraid I'll lose my faith. It's like |
| 1:31.0 | it sounds like you don't have any faith. It sounds like your faith is weak. And it sounds like |
| 1:35.7 | you need to test your faith, maybe lose it and come back and find it stronger. Reap and sew |
| 1:41.6 | for a season, convergent, divergent. And so it's really the fear that drives me |
| 1:46.0 | nuts with people. They're so afraid of things. And it's like, do you know who our father is? |
| 1:52.0 | Like, do you know what fear allows the enemy? Fear is a form of worship. So you're worshiping those books |
| 1:57.6 | because you're afraid of them. you're giving them power over you. |
| 2:01.5 | The only thing you should fear is God. |
| 2:04.1 | And when you fear God, you're not allowed to fear anything else. |
