The MOST important decision.
We all want to be on God's good side, and so we tend to live our lives trying to be good enough to accomplish that goal. Unfortunately, it's a lost battle for every one of us. And so we have a decision to make.

Not your body; not your choice.

Abortion is a controversial issue in our world today. And many proponents will argue that they have rights to their own body. But maybe we need a bigger perspective; maybe we need to acknowledge there's another body in the equation.
A discussion about gender.

Gender is one of the most controversial topics in our culture today, for people on all sides. Everyone is looking for answers on how to navigate the complexity. Thankfully, God has shared his heart on the matter to help guide our hearts.
It's MORE than an election.

At the time of posting this video, we're less than a month away from a major election in the US. And for Christians, we have an incredible responsibility before us.
What is God like anyway?

Throughout history, people have had their own view of God. But most of us have been wrong. So Jesus told a story to finally clear things up, once and for all.
Nike had it right all along.

It takes more than setting up a treadmill and putting on running shoes to lose weight. And Jesus told two stories to help us see that the same principle is true spiritually as well. Discussion questions: tinyurl.com/y6v3d4wh
What Christians can learn from the world.

Lying, cheating and stealing - these are what Jesus used to make a point in one of his stories. And most confusing of all - He said Christians should be more like the world. What was he talking about?

What are your thoughts on Christians who collects action figures examples: Marvel, Dc,Star wars, Transformers or Bionicle, etc.
If you like them, collect them!
I have autism and a bundle of other issues. I like to think God has been very close to me and thats why i suffer because God has chosen me for something...
Must be a controversial topic. You are using a podium.
😂😂😂
Every one is flawed so let's forget about character? Trump is not a Christian and he doesn't believe in God. That is quite evident from his own words. But he claims to be a Christian. The Apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians 5 spoke about people who identified themselves as Christian but didn't live as a Christian ought to live. Paul says to have no association with them. But MAGA Christians are not only associating with him but almost worship him.
We didn't say forget about character, and we didn't say Trump was a Christian. We're simply emphasizing that we should base our vote more on policies than personalities. We agree that people (on both sides, btw) are idolizing candidates in unhealthy ways.
Somebody should show Joh MacArthur this.
Yep!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you!
PREACH Brother !!!!
Amen❤
AMEN
The separation is coming.
Beginning to think the modern church is under control of the 👁 b/c they are all doing the same thing. Playing the same music christain and secular
A M E N
Im sorry but this is a topic that you guys should have avoided. Yall are so off base here. Yeah there indeed should be only music that worship God in church. Doesn't matter if its just the music or words. Leviticus 10:10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean; God doesnt want his people using anything that the world made to glorify satan then to used to bring God glory. He's too holy for that. God is the creator He's given man enough things that we can use in his house to worship him without touching any of the devil's stuff. And the part about wearing clothes such as blue jeans, thats not the same. As long as the jeans are not about to show your private parts etc then yeah thats wrong. And the wearing a hat in church is very wrong. You wouldnt or couldnt wear that hat to court and if you tried it and didn't remove it once you were told too then off to jail for you. So dont give man more respect then you would God. Im a musician and whenever i play with others and if they try to play someone thats not giving God true praise and worship, i show them all through the bible how wrong they are. The person who wrote in had it totally right. I know this is an old video but it came up when i was looking for something and had to respond. But please search God's word before yall give responses to letters cause what yall say may cause someone to miss heaven.
So I have struggled so much with my mental health for many many years!!!! I thought it was because I am cursed or something. I honestly don’t know why, probably cause I been through so much trauma in my life too. Abuse emotionally, and verbally, and all that had to go through so many difficulties, but after watching this video. I will follow through and not let the devil use me in a terrible way.
Through our weaknesses God draws closer to us. I feel like those of us that have these issues are special to god. He has chosen us for a reason to do good through our troubles. Maybe we suffer because we are close to god and are prime targets for the devil because of this.
The first cause actor is Jesus Christ.
No.
Christ came for the lost sheep of Israel Matthew verse 15 and 24
Wow
God has given us the tools and resources to repair our mental health. Yes the Bible is one of them, but God has also given people the skills of creating medication, or the gifts of being a counselor. Freely use the healthy gifts the Lord has given the Earth. You are loved, and you will make it through this season. God bless
??? WTF are you on? Humility is hated? Have you ever been manipulated via your pride (as in "you are so great, that giving me your property, time, effort, or whatever else I may want from you, is so insignificant, that surely you won't mind, right?")? Or are you such a loser that no proper manipulator ever bothered with you? As to generosity - The purpose of giving to charity is to decrease your anxiety over your financial situation via action as in "see? I give away money, and I am still fine!" Idols are idols ONLY because they demonstrate His qualities/aspects - how blind do you have to be to not see His glimpses in those idols? Up until now Jesus did not speak to you - as misguided, confused, and stubborn as you are - He is perfectly capable, always has been, but up until now He didn't - did you ever wonder why? It is not that He has more important stuff to do - to appear before you He doesn't need to disappear from anywhere else... How can this world, which He made, (remember?) hate you for doing what He told you to do? Maybe, just maybe, His world hates you because you are doing what He didn't tell you to do, and not doing what He did tell you to do, while lying to everyone, including yourself, that you do follow His instructions?
You paraphrased what Jesus said.
Very well put, thank you brother.
Sad but true.. keep the faith through it all, because “what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?” Mark 8:36 NLT
Very good message.....I've stopped and have been praying in the evening.Makeing an appointment with God intentionally.Thankyou great message
Any way I can get a working link for the handout? Quickly? I'm teaching a worldview class in the morning and am going to use this video.
Thank you so much brother! Please pray for me🙏🏻 I suffer from anxiety n overthinking .
I do too. My grandchildren are autistic and adhd and I didn't know where it came from and my youngest daughter also now and my oldest so I never thought about adhd. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and other things. I never have a sound mind,joy or peace and that's fruit of the spirit. So the enemy tried to use this against me. And some Christians can say what he said they say. It just gives me a bigger heart towards mentally ill. We can't be perfect.
Should someone show him REDEMPTION TCG its a perfect example
I believe in god, but I am not an overtly religious person. I think that the whole "satanism is everywhere" idea has gone overboard in many Christians's minds, but this video is one of the first decent viewpoints I have heard in a long while, from a religious channel. Beliefs are everything to a person, and I believe that god tests us with not only our belief but also our patience with others. God created us with flaws in mind, and it's those flaws we need to deal with ourselves to become a better person. If a person believes or does something you do not accept, that doesn't mean you should reject it. That means YOU don't accept. You just stand by and always be patient. I have many friends, some Christian, and some that are not. Some with different political beliefs, and some with none. Some of my friends believe in stuff I don't, but that does not mean I reject them outright, it means I just have to be patient and understanding. I talk to them all the time, and we never have any major arguments. We just don't reject. I remember the first time when I played Magic The Gathering. I was at Boy Scouts, and it was raining that day on a weeklong campout. I was tired and sad after some kids bullied me. Some of the older scouts saw me, and they invited me to play MTG with them. I remember seeing and understanding the game from them, and how it brightened my day after that. Looking back, maybe god intended for that to happen. Nothing evil there. Evil comes from when someone has different motives than others. It is when they try to cause harm or benefit only themselves. It's when they commit one of those sins, is where that is satanic in a way. The intent to cause that sin is what I think is truly evil. Thank you for listening to my viewpoint. I'm not a Republican, but I do listen to a lot of Republican sources. Why? I am just trying to understand and find out why we are so divided, and if there is a way to just understand one another. I am going to watch a couple of more videos from your channel. They seem better than the garbage from PragerU, the conflicting motives of FoxNews, or the hatred-filled religious channels I find so often. It's a break from all of that sad stuff. Thank you.
Glad you watched and shared your thoughts! It's always nice to have a civil discussion 😁
GOD WITH ALL CAPITALS PLEASEEE!
Ain’t gone lie been suffering so immensely in my life for so long I kinda don’t believe in none of this stuff no more cuz it seems like bull jive real talk seriously 😒
Sorry to hear that you've been struggling so long. God doesn't promise us ease, but He does promise us His presence. We are praying that's what you experience!
This is sad
How so?
@@accessmn well, the first thing is what I heard was God ‘s people accommodating the world. We are not to be conform to the world but to transformed by the renewing of your minds. We are to be set apart. The music should be music that is to praise God and uplift Him including the opener. The people are already there. They will expect Christian music so why play non Christian music? We’re to busy trying to please non Christian that we are losing are way. God’s WORD and us praising HIM should be enough. No gimmicks needed
So what things in a service need to be "Christian" and what things are ok if they're not? Does carpet need to be Christian? Does the projector that displays Bible verses need to be made by a Christian person? Can we serve regular coffee, or do we need something special? Can we wear Levi's jeans, or should we find a Christian clothing company? We think you get the idea....We can hold a service, explicitly about God, while using neutral things to help us convey the Gospel message. Not everything needs to be black and white.
@@accessmn well, He made the ground HOLY (Exodus 3:5). So your sarcasm is taken seriously. It wouldn’t be far fetched since He made THINGS such as the alter, arc, priest robes holy in His temple. I know that was under the old covenant but HE always demands worship.
Amen. Sad
This was a really good message!!!
Such a great message…. We do have an enemy, but more importantly we also have a savior. His name is JESUS!
Spiritual fools
First comment! I wonder if I'll be the last. Seeing how this is the second video I found with low amounts of comments I think I have a %100 chance of being the last.
Apparently this video is stuck on 35 comments. Guess you scared people away with your convincing proof. That, or my account was cursed to never see new comments. Sorry if my comment sucks. I'm not good at trying to think of good funny comments to make. But seriously, why is nobody new commenting on this?
lol, you think Jesus was a real person...
There is in fact no evidence for God. All the things listed are things you would only believe if you already believe in the first place.
1+1 is 2 so 2 + 2 must be 5. clown
Remember the fourth commandment KJV reminds us of Genesis 2:2&3. God never changes. Jesus is our example
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.”
a persistent presence would make a huge difference. I fully beleive in God and Jesus however... it would be nice if God would be more straightforward about what he wants out of his creation. I mean, some parents are out of their children's lives for many years, some not by choice. Does that mean they don't love their child? No, but it does mean their lack of presence effects that child and regardless of what other people tell the child the child will always lack the influence of their parent and their parents beleifes and morals will never be fully shared with that child, the child will NEVER know their parent, who they are or what they beleive is right and wrong, they're left to learn on their own, such as we all are. It is natural for many of us to get it wrong, our father may see and know us but do we, will we every truly know him? Or will we go through out our lives knowing little about our father, making our own conclusions based on the information we get from other people about him, will we ever truly know him? Not everyone is able to understand what they're being told or how to handle themselves, with most people it's not even a noticeable obstacle for them, but it's there none the less. Faith is one thing, leaving a child to understand the world around them for themselves means we're very susceptible to being misled, that's not our fault. Even down to blasphemy, that is not our fault when a physical presence is absent, is it really our fault if we make a mess of things? Do we blame the 5 yr old for starting a fire in the house when he gets left alone?
You forgot the most basic. You can in private, with a genuine heart, call out and pray to this Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and have His Spirit, the Holy Spirit of Truth, show you a Power you cannot deny and a supernatural peace that none can take. 🤷♂️ Why then, will you choose death for even the atheist must confess Jesus Christ, the Lord of Life, conqueror of death, is their only hope for eternal salvation. Forget everything else, go learn of the Man (God Himself) and let Him be your Master, Lord, Therapist, Guide… Acquire wisdom sure, but try it out before you shake His Grace off!
