" It IS good news that Christ keeps me saved no matter what. "
AMEN OUR REDEEMER
@Psalms-fr8yy Amen! It really is good news!
I was taught as a Catholic that thinking you could be good enough to enter heaven at death was a "mortal sin" of Presumption. At 33 years of age, I received amazing grace of God thru the gospel of Christ, 1John 5:9-13. Praise God!
My brother recommended I see this. I just saw this first video in the series and can’t wait to see the rest. Finally, a pastor that ACTUALLY believes and is preaching the Bible. I wish there were a way to translate this to Spanish for our church to see. Either way, God bless you and your ministry 👍🏽
I think you might can go into the settings on this video by tapping on the Settings icon which looks like a tractor tire in the upper right corner of the screen, then tap “captions,” then tap “auto translate“ & scroll down to tap “Spanish.“ l’m not sure that will work on this video, but it’s worth a try. Welcome to this channel my brother in Christ!
41:15 - "I sin BUT I don't practice sin."
"Sure you do, every time you get up you're preaching a false gospel. That's a sin and you're practicing it" - Blunt and straight to the point. Sadly, many preachers are guilty of corrupting the very simple Gospel. Instead of a Gospel about God's promise to save you if you believe on the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, they converted it to a gospel about your promise to live a life of holiness until your very last breath. It's no different from when the Pharisees made the Sabbath day such a huge burden to the people when the Sabbath day was meant to be a rest for the people of God. Instead, it became the most difficult day of the week. The true Gospel is about rest. The wolves in sheep's clothing make the Gospel about works.
Well said! I literally laughed out loud when I heard Pastor Cucuzza say that! It was definitely spot on! Sadly many pastors teach a false gospel because that’s how they were taught, and they truly don’t know any better and may very likely not be saved because of it.
@@karynbanksley7110Pastors should know their Bible. Being taught that way is no excuse. I think people who believe in a works based salvation are just too proud of themselves to believe salvation is a gift. They want to prove they are righteous themselves.
@@karynbanksley7110How can you say they may not be saved? They too believe in Christ Jesus and what he did on the cross.
34:23 THIS IS WHERE he really starts preaching! So very true!!! So many large, popular preachers, complicate the gospel and they have so many people in their congregation that believe it. And they’re gonna have to answer to God for that. I’m so grateful that I am not under condemnation any longer and that I am under grace. I lost the joy of salvation for so many years listening to Calvinist preachers. Thank God, I know the real SIMPLE gospel. ❤
God bless you Pastor at this church,,Florida here,,John3;16 Eph.2;8,9...Clear Gospel Death ,burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ paid for are sins that we may be righteous enough to be in the presence of God thru faith alone not of works..thankyou Pastor.
Unspeakable amen, please mormans, catholics, calvinists listen to this message.
Bless your soul for preaching the truth and standing against Lordship damnation!

Yes Amen. I suffered a complete nervousness breakdown and became suicidal because of lordship salvation it’s vary deviating and really hard to find others who can relate
@@DGS-yk2yt That's dreadful! No wonder people don't want to be saved. They are usually presented with an overbearing false gospel. That is not what our loving God does! He wants no one to perish, so of course He would make it easy! It goes against His very nature not to take care of everything, but belief for us! Blessings, brother!
Blue sky, well said my sister in Christ!
@@DGS-yk2yt The same thing happened to me, and I spent over a decade battling depression and frequent suicidal thoughts!
@@karynbanksley7110 dealing with this now
Faith in who He is AND what He has done. We can never leave out the blood.
Only thing I can add is a big AMEN!
"If you are not saved forever, you are not saved at at all". Flips the script on lordship. I have this post on my Facebook: if Jesus did not pay it all, he did not pay at all. An argument with Kenyans ensued. Several African friends liked. One of them said that some people are reading their theology books upside down. Then he said that we don't have to "whip ourselves until we blood to show remorse". That is the essence of Spurgeon and MacArthur. Adeola Fayehun once said, "Jesus is enough and has never disappointed anyone". Lordship salvation a global tragedy. It is Satan's clever genocide. Few realize they are victims until it is too late.
I pray for these people. Some are genuinely sincere in what they believe and think they are putting believers on the narrow path not veering them off it.
Thank you pastor for a TRUE message from God’s word!! You hit it out of the park! The world needs pastors like you that teach the Bible exactly the way it says!! Thank you for this message and may God bless you.
Thank you so much I share your messages on FB. When I was first saved I heard many false messqges and was so confused asking God to save me daily . I left the Catholic church and went to a bible church but even though they were gracers the gospel was fuzzy. Others in the church told me things and false gospels. It was so horrible hearing one thing from the pulpit and another thing from the flock. Very important to diciple those new believers and help them find a good church even give them names of good pastors on RUclips to listen to
I love this guy!
I watched this via your FB Live broadcast. I really do appreciate your passion to teach the whole council of God's Word! You are the only church I can safely "attend"(albeit online) every week as I have no free grace church anywhere near me in SoCal.

I am in the same boat and live in So cal as well and have personally suffered a great deal at the hands of Lordship salvation teaching, it’s been so hard to find fellowship.

Powerful! PRESERVATION, the true "P" (John 10:27-30). Thanks Tom.
Oh yeah, I just watched a new one on me, I've never seen before that I know of. I was watching a well known person Baptise people and said, " Now you are Born again"! I thought what? Isn't when you truly trust Jesus Christ for His finished work on the cross, then you are Born Again forever! Then you can get Baptised for an outward profession. But you must trust Christ alone first! The blind leading the blind!
They're unsaved
Amen !
That passage in 2 Corin. 11;3 is from the simplicity that is in Christ it does not say through. thank you, Pastor.
AMEN!! I love you Jesus!!
Thank You Jesus for this Excellent Ministry!!!
This pastor is solid gives the clear gospel message
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Thank you, Pastor Tom!!!
This is one of the most excellent sermons I have ever heard! Thank you Pastor!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to hear part 2 and beyond!
Amen
Pastors notes
1. Introduction. Ephesians 2:8-9; 1 John 5:13; 2 Corinthians 11:3.
This series will focus on two main issues:
a. The preservation of the saints.
b. The preservation of the truth in what is called the preservation of the saints.
2. The Problem at Hand. 2 Corinthians 9:15; John 6:47; John 3:16; John 6:37-39; Ephesians 2:10.
3. In view of such statements, several questions must be asked:
a. Are the statements of these teachers biblical?
b. Does God want us to live our lives in uncertainty and doubt, questioning whether we are His children or not?
c. How much failure, if any, can there be and still have the assurance of heaven? Or put another way, how faithful do we need to be to be sure of Heaven?
d. What if we don't endure to the end, but die in a backslidden condition? Will we end up in Hell?
e. Is salvation a gift or not?
f. Does man have the ability to choose anything for himself?
1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Matthew 19:25 And when his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? 26 And Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
Wish I could be near your church
At least youtube but i know what you mean brother
That is the year I gave my life and heart to Jesus. Wow! He has protected and met allll my needs.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ!
I think that is Erminiams doctrine.
It is utter folly to think you must "endure to the end" to be saved. There was only ONE PERSON that ever endured to the end and His name is Jesus Christ. He endured being condemned for "going about doing GOOD." Pilate said, "I find no fault in this man." Christ was mocked, unjustly accused, whipped and beaten nearly to death, crucified on a Roman cross, and made a public spectacle. When He was on the cross He said, "It is finished." He voluntarily laid His life down for the sins of mankind and made the full payment for our sins by the shedding of His innocent shed blood. Now, anyone that will simply by faith trust that Christ paid for their sins on the cross and rose again from the dead can receive the gift of eternal life. Once you have that free and totally undeserved gift God will NEVER take it away.
I think that phrase “endure to the end” is speaking about life during the end times. But research that for yourself
What is someone get saved then at some point in life renounce Christ and following Satan through witchcraft?
Only God knows , all I can say is that if my son does good or does evil bottom line he is still my son. Once we are adopted into Gods family He will in no way kick us out, and if we become faithless God still remains faithful. Again I dont know how it all works, Only God does. But if I can love my own son with compassion and mercy, how much more will God love us. I remember when my son a teenager and said things to me like I hate you and never want to see you again, which he at times had said. I still never disowned him or stopped loving him. And i would never send him to hell for doing so. So I'm just saying if Gods ways are higher then ours and his ways higher then ours how could he do something to one of his children that I wouldn't even do.
Are these people in 1Cor 6:9 unbelievers?
Yes, that is correct. An unbeliever = unrighteous whereas a believer = righteous.
Romans 3:
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
That's what I don't get. If we no longer believe in Christ as our Savior, then how are we still trusting in Him? If we must believe in order to be saved, then how are we still saved when we no longer believe - which is ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED in receiving the gift of salvation?
Because believing is a one time transaction, not a continual thing you need to do. No ones believes continually, we all stumble in out faith daily.
In John 5:24 Jesus said that you have everlasting life the moment you believe (" hath everlasting life"). It also says that you pass from death unto live the moment you believe "(is passed from death unto life") not at some future point. Also, if you could lose your salvation then it couldn't be everlasting life. Because by definition something that is everlasting never stops. Below are some additional verses where it says you HAVE (hath, meaning to posses right now) everlasting life when you believe.
John 5:24 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
John 3:36 - He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
John 6:47 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
1 John 5:13 - These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Unbelievable that most Christians don't understand the Bible!!!
Endurance is so antithetical to Gods character. What about the person on the corner who is absolutely broken by there sin but believes in Christ like the thief of the cross but doesn’t perservere? I used to buy this nonsense but was relying on my own strength to get through. What about weaker willed people? God doesn’t love them enough to honor his promise that if they believe in his son they are sealed? Is that the character Jesus displayed during his time on earth? Ridiculous and lacks compassion
Well said, Pastor! Amen!
I was saved a year ago. I’ve shared the gospel with my whole family, and as Tom stated had this passion for what Christ did for me, sadly year later my family has pretty much rejected Christ and me. 🥲 I continue to pray for their salvation.
If they believed and were saved they can't unsave themselves.
