Hey guys, Joshua Lewis here with Remnant Radio, and I'll tell you about Rimcon this spring in San Diego, California.

The dates are February 5th through the 7th, and the subject of the conference is growing in the Gifts of the Spirit.

You can join us there in person or via live stream, and what you're going to get out of that conference is some serious theological training on the gifts of the Spirit.

What are they? How do they operate?

There's also going to be opportunities to break out and practice spiritual gifts in a kind of biblical,

safe, and orderly way. We've got lectures from myself, Michael Miller, Michael Roundtry, John Mark Baker, from the Minor Prophets, and Dr. Sam Storms. So if you're looking to move beyond just the theoretical and learning the theology of spiritual

guess, but you're actually wanting to start practicing them for yourself, I'd encourage

you to come out and hang out with us February 5th through the 7th there in San Diego, California.

The angel doesn't just speak for God. He speaks as God. It carries the

divine name Yahweh in various passages. He makes covenantal promises and he does things that only God can do.

Later in these texts will see that he begins to receive worship and people who meet with him

recognize him as God himself. And the scripture never corrects those individuals as if they

were mistaken or misunderstood the true identity of this angel of the Lord. Throughout the Old Testament,

we see this same person appearing to Hagar when she's desperate in the wilderness, to Abraham,

right after he binds up Isaac, to Moses in the burning bush, to the people of Israel at Bachem,

to Gideon in the wine press,

Manoa and his wife before Samson's birth. And in every single case, in these texts, it just

shows us that this messenger is not just standing in for God. It is showing us that this angel

of the Lord is Yahweh himself. So in this video, we're going to walk through these various
