WOW!!! I wish I knew how old this sermon was. I've been listening to Alister for the past few years and am amazed at his wisdom, knowledge and love for God. But I had NO clue he was always this way! His mind is incredible and apparetnly always was. Thank-you God for choosing him, using him, and gifting him to your own glory.
Such power filled preaching. Need more preachers like these. No screaming, shouting, fancy stage lights....... This is the true power of the Holy Spirit.
Pastor John McArthur doesn’t yell ither. It is very nice. All the yelling distracts me from what they are trying to say. It annoys me. He is very pleasant. 🦋🦋
@@vickieal-saifi2396 Maybe so, but he is so far off the beam on so many things that it isn't worth listening to him. Do you really think that demons mated with human beings? There is no way anyone can get John MacArthur to give up on that perverse notion. That's enough right there to give him the hook.
@@drivebyquipper No, it isn't. John MacArthur may be wrong on some things, he's human, but he is a good expositional preacher on most things. Btw, you don't really think that he is alone in his interpretation of the Nephilim, do you?
@@judylloyd7901 I know for a fact that John MacArthur isn't alone in his interpretation of the Nephilim. He's not the only one who is off the beam with that ridiculous nonsense. That's not the only place he runs amok either. He's not worth watching, and I wouldn't follow him because he's not a reliable teacher.
After this teaching, I feel so inadequate to reach my contemporaries. I know God will help me. It is in my inadequacy He shows himself strong. Dear Lord help me.
No matter what year it was preached. God's TRUTH does not change (Rev 1:4, Heb13:8). Thank you Pastor Begg for this HOLY SPIRIT inspired sermon. Praised (honoured, blessed) be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)! By His boundless mercy we have been born again to an ever living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead (Peter 1:3). Hallelujah!
This is a very old video , we can think so by seeing how young you are and how your voice sounds and your good accent and energy, all great! And you, with age added , are still great to see and hear. Thank you , God definitely is with, in and for you to be a preacher!🙏✝️😁📖
Thank you Pastor Begg, you teach me the Bible. I am grateful as most just teach about the end days and how can we survive the end days if we do not get challenged to think. Thank you for teaching me to think.
Brilliant! Gods word is truly the final authority, on everything. All we are to do is plug in and obey. To be a slave to our wonderful Master. What a freedom that brings. Lest we become ensnared to go our own way and become a slave to bondage.
There are no powerful speakers, there is only Truth. The clearer the Truth is made, the more powerful the message . Al sees himself in the mirror, Identifies with the needy and weak, then reaches out to us on common ground and GOD enables understanding and desire to be like JESUS I appreciate Them for doing so Thanks
This is convicting. Really makes me think about what I think about. Reminds me of the works of Dr. Francis Schaeffer and made me remember my early Christian thinking.
What an absolutely true sermon. Thank you for putting these subjects is such a way that it is impossible to misunderstand. One cannot fill their hearts and minds with garbage, and expect to be thinking right. God bless you Alister. You have a listener in ATX.
I believed that GOD’S Word had to became a life for me to understand Him. But I Realize that GOD’S was, and is Alive for ever. all times and I was the one without life. GOD’S mercy and grace true the Lord Jesus Christ make this miracle possible. Praise be to GOD.
So true starting at 24:13. Wish that happened to me then and not when I was in my twenties! Pray for those like Richard Dawkins who has said the worst form of brainwashing is when you teach Christianity to a young child!
👍 Both excellent and relative ; if it changes us. Did it ? I hope so. Check your heart ❤️. And then test your heart. Proclaim Christ. Sincerely , here we go !
Mary , all control ? Even if we give God a little control ; He will use it to His glory. And sincerely ; I agree , may I surrender all. 🙏🏼🎶 Proclaim Christ. Here we go.
Worship the lord in the beauty of Holiness... Equally perplexing is the "beauty" of the Holy God we are to fear..awesomeness, sovereignty, almightiness, eternal and divine. Light that draws me, mothlike, and withers my very existence; Light so profoundly beautiful and so infinitely consuming; that once having entered the throne room of King Jesus , I cannot leave without transforming Grace to go forth nor can I hope to return without beneficent Mercy. He knows the heart ,my heart, and promises to keep me, all that concerns me, for His Name's sake. Oh Most Excellent and Admirable Lord, Light of the world, reduce me to Live, thereby freeing my soul for praise, in which you inhabit ....where can I go that Your Spirit is not? Father God, why would I want to go there? Except You keep me and go with me, I would not venture.
👍 Phil , the excellence of it , will be measured by the effects it had on you for good. Can you name those effects ? Sincerely I hope you can. Now let’s test those effects. Proclaim Christ. 🙏🏼🎶 Here we go !
👍 Wow ! That statement made me smile. That sums up the Gospel. SIMPLE and GOOD ! Wyler - now let’s not complicated this. Proclaim Christ. 🙏🏼🎶 Here we go !
Because maybe, you’re gonna be the one that saves me .. and after all.... you’re my wonderwall.. If you hadn’t have moved to the US Alistair, you would have sung that at a Karaoke or two!
👍 William , Alistair may be here but his voice has wings. If he is good close up , he is good far away. Has his goodness made you a better follower of Jesus ? I hope so. Sincerely we love him so. And hope he is affecting you as much as he is affecting us. 🙏🏼🪖 Here we go !
👍 Correction ! It will be lost only on those who really didn’t HEAR it. Sincerely ; will it make a difference in your life DRIVEBY ? Someday we will know. For now , proclaim Christ. 🙏🏼🪖 Here we go.
👍 Question Philip ; has the listening , turned into doing ? Alistair is a true gift from God ; so was Moses. And not much changing went on with that crowd. Sincerely , let’s test what we have learned. Proclaim Christ ! … Here we go !
When someone says to me, "There is no absolute truth", I ask them in return, "Is that true?" Either way they answer, yes or no, exposes the erroneous nature of their argument.
The truth of God is absolute . There is no variation.If a person does not speak according to the word , It is because he has no truth. One has to judge himself if he is in the faith,in truth and in love.
Is it ok to read classic books like Sherlock Holmes or Little Women?. I know that these are not Christian books and I was just wondering about them? Thanks
Yes 👍 God made Man a creative bean. And most of those classical writers; just give testimony to how amazing Man’s creativity is. But don’t let them keep you from the WONDER of the Word. 🙏🏼🎶
Hi Mr Begg. I am a new subscriber and Christian. I just became a follower of Jesus Christ today. How can I express my beliefs about the book called Jesus calling? I believe that it's a demonic book, because it's not inline with the Bible and what Jesus Christ has said in the Bible to a sister in Christ who believes that the book is from Jesus Christ? I don't want to be decieved by false teachers and false doctrine. Thanks so much
🎶 Wow Lola. I’m not speaking for Alistair , but I’m sure he would be thrilled of your coming to Christ. Whatever books have your attention , I would really encourage you to focus on the Bible. Especially as a new believer. Stay close to Alistair Begg’s teaching. He is an excellent example of one trained in the Word. I’m not familiar with the book you mention. But the BEST Book , that’s what should tug at our hearts. 🙏🏼🎶
@@Thruevangelisteyes thanks so much. I recently got a book called the imitation of Christ by Tomas A Kempis. The book is showing me how to be like Jesus according to the Bible.
👍 And Juan , the human mouth should be employed in proclaiming the wonders of God. Sincerely , let’s do both. Proclaim Christ! And think on the Word of God. 🙏🏼🪖 Here we go !
What do you mean by Christian perspective? Why do pastors disagree among themselves about various subjects or interpretation of the scriptures? Why there's no unity of the truth of God? Reformation pastors and SDA pastors are at odds with each others. How can someone who listen to your sermons understand what is right or what is wrong? If I can understand, I am able to master the truth of God better than the pastors. Does it sound reasonable?
Read the bible on your own and you should come to the truth. Any religion that says you can add anything to your salvation is false. We are saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. Seek a daily relationship with God and He will reveal the truth.
I see your point. And depending where you are on this journey, called life , sometimes it feels like there are more , “ Foggy “ days than “ Clear “ days. But that is the reality of our journey. With that said , one thing I believe is important to understand when approaching the Bible , is to be clear on what you are interpreting verses what you are translating. When translating you are looking only for the best word or words that communicate what is being translated. In interpretation you are looking for the best meaning that makes sense of the translation. 🙏🏼🎶
Im going to say something kinda in jest. I’d like to have a pocketeer and call him Alistair. I’d have him in a pocket to advise me. I realize I have the Holy Spirit which is much better but for one, like myself, who has trouble with what to say a pocketeer would be helpful.
Yes, probably because they did not learn to put faith in men or traditions but in Jesus and the Word found in the Bible. I also found Sinclair Ferguson during the plandemic and thank the Lord for their messages. I was born and raised in the Presbyterian Church and praise the Lord for those who have brought it back to the Bible. Both my parents taught Sunday School and I attended what is now Rhodes College; but the PC was one of the first to go woke under a different name. I loved my college but I'm glad my children learned common sense and marketable skills, not just situational ethics.
Believing that there no such thing as belief is a belief. John Lennon sang about imagining a world without religion. He is contradicting himself because he is pushing a religion that believes there should be no religion.
I must be a taco dinner cause I think of that alot. What you beleive effects how you behave, would probably have been a better way to start your intro. Chicken tacos are the best.
👍 Now do you believe what I think you believe ? I think you do. So let’s put the “ TACO “ down and Proclaim Christ ! 🙏🏼🎶Sincerely, Alistair is a gift from God. So here we go. 🎉
Ignorance is anyone claiming they are better than others. We are ALL sinners. Country of origin has zero to do with it. Grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.
Ysmael ; it’s so easy to describe an entire people with one word. But not fair. America has its problems ; but we also have some amazing FREEDOMS ! Even the freedom to be wrong. We are far from poor. Maybe foolish sometimes , but not poor. I hope you consider Jesus . PS- He was not from America. 🙏🏼🪖

👍 Now let’s go proclaim God’s message. 🙏🏼🎶
“There’s no such thing as absolute truth” is a statement that itself is trying to be an absolute truth. It falls apart.

WONDER WALL BY OASIS. PASTOR BEGG, THIS IS THE SONG YOU WERE SPEAKING ABOUT.
Wonderwall
Oasis, Wonder Wall is the band and song 🎵 to those lyrics
wow, thats a young looking Alistair Begg... How long ago was this sermon delivered?
Great sermon btw, been listening to Alistair for ages now.
ahh, ok, at 4:06 he states '...those who are our friends and neighbours at the end of the 20th century...'
So used to hearing '21st century' now. 🙂
👍 Question Philip ; has the listening , turned into doing ? Alistair is a true gift from God ; so was Moses. And not much changing went on with that crowd. Sincerely , let’s test what we have learned. Proclaim Christ ! … Here we go !
When someone says to me, "There is no absolute truth", I ask them in return, "Is that true?" Either way they answer, yes or no, exposes the erroneous nature of their argument.
👍 Good move Stacie. Being ready , absolutely. Let’s go proclaim Christ , and be ready to answer those who ask questions. 🙏🏼🎶 Here we go !
What year was this sermon preached? I have never seen Allistair wear glasses.
Me also
I hadn't, either.
As I turned the wheel, spinning thread
into brilliant and useful substance,
Reason became my inner eye, sighting,
rapid wonder, consternation, not glance.
Raveling into thoughts deeply,
Unwittingly earning highest degrees
of personal philosophy, theology, discovery,
If blessed, every resolution, a key.
When I seek who I am from self-scoured
residue, the lost, retained, remembered,
the woven swath informs what is real.
Imagination can turn sense into tinder.
The thread runs through my hand, available,
like my mind, aware, I can gather manna.
The woven blanket, better His holy tents,
giving heart from beginning like Hannah.
Weaving with patience, as all blends.
The tapestry result is astounding.
My unraveling thoughts rest on His robe.
Discover blessed, degreed as His foundling.

Wow ! That was some CHATTER ! Praise God ; even if within a matrix . 🙏🏼🎶
Is the series “Conversation stoppers” on RUclips that he mentioned that he was thinking about preaching on?
I wonder that, too!
And now 2021!.
The truth of God is absolute . There is no variation.If a person does not speak according to the word , It is because he has no truth. One has to judge himself if he is in the faith,in truth and in love.
Is it ok to read classic books like Sherlock Holmes or Little Women?. I know that these are not Christian books and I was just wondering about them? Thanks
Absolutely! If you read the book of Esther, there's no mention of God. Secular books that have good values are wholesome for the mind.
Yes 👍 God made Man a creative bean. And most of those classical writers; just give testimony to how amazing Man’s creativity is. But don’t let them keep you from the WONDER of the Word. 🙏🏼🎶

I was born and raised in the Presbyterian Church and praise the Lord for those who have brought it back to the Bible. Both my parents taught Sunday School and I attended what is now Rhodes College; but the PC was one of the first to go woke under a different name. I loved my college but I'm glad my children learned common sense and marketable skills, not just situational ethics.
👍 I’m sure they did. Now let it be said of us , Scott’s or whatever, “ They know how to preach ! “. Proclaim Christ. 🙏🏼🎶 Here we go !
Believing that there no such thing as belief is a belief. John Lennon sang about imagining a world without religion. He is contradicting himself because he is pushing a religion that believes there should be no religion.
👍 Good point Thunderbird. Now let’s thunder out the Good News. 🙏🏼🎶 Proclaim Christ.
I must be a taco dinner cause I think of that alot. What you beleive effects how you behave, would probably have been a better way to start your intro. Chicken tacos are the best.
👍 Now do you believe what I think you believe ? I think you do. So let’s put the “ TACO “ down and Proclaim Christ ! 🙏🏼🎶Sincerely, Alistair is a gift from God. So here we go. 🎉
Is he unwell? He looks so slight and his jacket is too big... He looks like the judge from "Night Court"
😄 Beware impressions from the outside of the cup ! What a treasure on the inside. 🙏🏼🎶 And I’m sure you know. At least I hope you do.
I love Alistair, but I gotta say, his tailor should be fired.
Poor America.......you were taught WRONG. Who is to blame ????? Are you even to be blamed for your ignorance ???
Ignorance is anyone claiming they are better than others. We are ALL sinners. Country of origin has zero to do with it. Grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.
Ysmael ; it’s so easy to describe an entire people with one word. But not fair. America has its problems ; but we also have some amazing FREEDOMS ! Even the freedom to be wrong. We are far from poor. Maybe foolish sometimes , but not poor. I hope you consider Jesus . PS- He was not from America. 🙏🏼🪖
Your very questionable !!
