Me: Binge watching Francis Chan sermons in 2020

Pastor Francis Chan thank you for these truthful words. I needed this tonight

As a nonbeliever this is easily my favorite bible verse. It's great advice for people both secular and religious.

Amen

"yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes." James 4:14

This morning today I was running a few miles for cross country. I am a new runner, and for me, it was incredibly difficult. As I beat my hands harder and my legs grew limper, I said, "I want to stop. . . I want to stop . . . I feel like I'm going to die." But then my teammates kept pushing me farther, and even got behind me so I could keep running. . . They said, "Keep running, we're almost there. We're uphill now, but we'll reach downhill in a minute now." Because of them, I did not give up. Even though I really felt like I was going to die, I kept running. They reminded me of what was ahead. And sure enough, when I finished the run, I was ecstatic, and was extremely glad that I did not give up halfway. In the same way, living for God is extremely difficult. It is one thing to die for Christ, but it is another to live for him. In the Bible, Jesus tells us to take up our cross daily. The Bible also tells us to love God and love our neighbors as ourself. But the issue is that we are sinners; and we are tempted by the flesh. Satan is at the door, waiting to prowl on us at any moment. Even though following Christ is difficult, it is incredibly worth it. Jesus promises that those who do the will of God will be his brother and mother and sister in heaven for all eternity. Even though the race is difficult, we must not give up. It is difficult to follow Christ, just as it was difficult for me to run those miles. But the word of God, just like my teammates, kept reminding me of the reward that was ahead, and because of that, I did not stop running. Ephesians 6:10-18 says that we must be strong and put on the full armor of God, with faith as our shield, and the word of God as our sword. My hope for all of you is to be able to speak 2 Timothy 4:7 at the end of your lives. "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." Just like Paul the Apostle, we shall not give up. We must keep beating our arms, and keep running, depending on Jesus Christ to be our strength. Even if it is difficult for you now, you will surely reap the benefits. So I urge and implore you, do not give up! Keep praying! Keep your faith! Keep striving to be like Jesus! Keep depending on God almighty! I have to admit, being a Christian is a lot harder than I expected. But remember what Jesus said in John 16:33: "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

I love his willingness to admit when he is unsure about doctrine. Great sermon.

I make my bed in hell.

That last part about God noticing every little detail got to me <3 AMEN

this is awesome 😊😊

So much truth in this 8 min segment!!

Iam having marriage problems, thank you for incourgin words...pray for us even though you don't know us..GOD bless you!!!

Pastor Chan has a way of getting to the main point and pressing it home to his audience. Not many ministers even bother.

Thought I wasn't worth shit until this message. Thank you Mr. Chan, you got me out of contemplating suicide.

I'm still listening this video for the 10th time

Thanks for the Ember Js videos. Keep up the good work.

lol "Remember 2000 years ago?..." haha

I look in the mirror and praise God for allowing me to live this long. I feel three years old but I'm over 60...

I wanna learn how to be a programmer!! :)

=)

well, i think we are the man because we follow the Man too!

I am not saying I fully understand the Bible due to the "brains" who has put it together, but when Christ died on the cross he became the new sacrifice. Sacrificing your bull for your sins became unnecessary because of the new sacrifice who is Jesus Christ. The foundations remain such as the ten commandments or like paying half of your fortune to the father whose daughter you just raped... If you do have any further questions, feel free to consult your nearby paster, priest, father, etc. Pray

I will continue praying for non believers such as yourself. God has a special place in his heart for those who do not yet believe. What is truth? Look into that one. Have a wonderful day.

Amen. Thank You Lord <333333333333333

I have no idea what your trying to achieve by posting this stuff... I love God, your not going to change that.

Romans 1:24-32

everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles (15:12-13 NAB)

Deuteronomy 22:23-24

the bible calls for all kind of killing what are you talking about ? Deuteronomy 22:28-29 and before you try to say the old testament does not count remember that the ten commandments are in the old testament "If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father."

I think if someone has read the bible and came out with the beliefs that rape & murder is fine then they read it wrong. How can you say jesus is ok with murder when its one of the 10 commandments is "thou shall not kill" ... yall been speaking with the wrong people & taking parts of the bible out of context

ive heard of him, yes

jesus's dad ? you heard of him ?

god does not ring a bell huh? you don't know who I mean? lol derp the christian god killed more than two million in the bible if you can't understand that then don't worry your soft little head about it hun.

still not ringing a bell

the man who killed 2 million in the bible!! YOUR GOD HELLO ?

it makes sense from the angle formed by being down in the valley

im sorry i dont follow

And the man he follows is fine with slavery ,rape and murder And the man who tried but failed to kill man kind with a flood. kinda weak magic if you ask me.

Yeah, the man who killed 2 million in the bible!! go team jesus death squad :) shut down all churches thank you.

That's a really cool video. We will be using it in October as our youth really dig deep into this verse. Nice job.

wow I need to listen to this video daily..... im glad I saw it God bless that man

Jesus Christ is God who for our sakes became man.He is the One and Only true God Man.

include anyone who is saved because we did God's will, who sees this true dedication and sacrifice, all for the Glory of Jesus Christ, and say, "Man, that's what I want to be. Suddenly, what I am doing right now, doesn't match up to what that guy or that woman is doing over there. He/she is really fired up, look at what he's/she's giving up for God, he's/she's giving up everything, and yet he/she looks so happy." That's what being in the family of God means.

Jesus, when teaching people one time, it is said they people told him, "Your mother and brothers are at the edge of crowd wanting to speak to you." Life has a way of trying to provide some person or event that will try to pull you away from doing what God has put into your heart to do. Jesus said, "Who are my mother and brothers? Anyone who hears the will or words of God and does it, they are my mother, and father, and brothers." The family of God, is anyone who does God's will, and that can

If you are right then Francis and his friend David Platt are wrong with these messages challenging us to get back to the church Jesus started. There are good people who love God down the street at the local church of the american jesus. The american jesus is a false god created in the image of middle class americans, who give out of their abundance and try to worship God and money. And you know this is truth. I am a good samaritan--I serve people God puts in my path.

WHO ON EARTH WOULD 'DISLIKE' THIS VIDEO!!! leaves me insane in the mind. come on ya dummies lol

Thank you for this message. It like god spoke to me directly through you
