• 1:15

  Chaplain Terry Warner: It will air on September, the 25th 2023.
• 1:30
  Chaplain Terry Warner: The foundation scriptures is Hebrews 13: 8; BC stands for Before Christ, AD stands for After Christ or Anno Domini, and it's measured in time and years, and in the past times and years it was calculated or counted by what emperor or king or dictator was in power at the time.
• 1:52
  Chaplain Terry Warner: No ruler wanted a zero for their first year, so there was never a zero year to get started for their era of time.
• 2:01
  Chaplain Terry Warner: However, we still set December the 25th as the birth of Christ.
• 2:06
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Was he born on December the 25th?
• 2:09
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Probably not.
• 2:10
  Chaplain Terry Warner: We probably don't know an exact birthday that we know of, but that's the day we picked to celebrate the birth of Christ, and that's the way it is.
• 2:20
  Chaplain Terry Warner: This birth was so monumental and so noted that the whole world celebrates the birth of Christ on this day.
• 2:28
  Chaplain Terry Warner: As a matter of fact, it divided the time into before Christ and after Christ, and it still remains to that day.
• 2:38
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Time is for man and not for God, as God is eternal in both directions of time, backwards and forwards.
• 2:46
  Chaplain Terry Warner: It is an earthly measurement of eras and epochs, with notable people inserting their era into the equation.
• 2:54
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Either way, no birth has ever divided the segment of time in any way, except the birth of Christ, and even the non-believers who do not believe in him the Orthodox Jews, the Communists, the Socialists, the Agnostics affirm his existence when they sign documents by dating the document with a year, noting that a document is invalid if not correctly dated.
• 3:25
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Either way, history is divided into two sections before Christ or after Christ.
• 3:33
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Everything BC is counting down to a particular event.
• 3:36
  Chaplain Terry Warner: On New Year's Eve, we watch the ball come down and we count the ball down.
• 3:43
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Come down and we count the ball down hours, minutes, to the last seconds, and we start counting it down to zero, and then zero and midnight meet at the one and same time and then we start counting up not from zero but from one.
• 4:02
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Chaplain.
• 4:04
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Terry, that's all fine and dandy, but what and how is this related to my spiritual walk?
• 4:09
  Chaplain Terry Warner: I'm glad you asked.
• 4:11
  Chaplain Terry Warner: You were born into this world and your time started counting.
• 4:15
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Actually, you were growing older, but your eternal time was counting down from BC to AD.
• 4:22
  Chaplain Terry Warner: The longer you stayed away from accepting Jesus, the closer you came to AD time.
• 4:31
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Think about that.
• 4:33
  Chaplain Terry Warner: The longer you stayed away from Jesus, you're counting down to the time that you meet him.
• 4:39
  Chaplain Terry Warner: Then one day you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior and immediately you started moving away from BC and started living in AD.
• 4:48
  Chaplain Terry Warner: The closer you get to Jesus, the lower your BC stuff hangs around.

• 5:54

• 6:06
  Chaplain Terry Warner: The words that I speak unto you.
