Dear brother Tim. What is the meaning of Matthew 5:48 "But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect." (NLT) ? Thanks and blessings. Amen
My wife and I got Married 31years ago, I was saved (17yrs old) she wasn't, we turned 18 and got married, I told her that I wanted her to homeschool our kids if we had any, she was like what's that? We moved to Denver she ended up getting saved at Sam Pitrones church Cornerstone (was pro homeschooling), and we raised and homeschooled our 3 boys the entire time no public school at all,(ended in Wa. state) This was both of our conviction to protect and raise our kids, she was and is a great homemaker and and has saved us tons of money in doing so, we live within our means and God supplies all for us , I am so thankful she loved doing this and loving me though out this time. We are now empty nesters and still young enough to watch our kids grow spiritually and physically with their kids and churches. I believe it was a wonderful choice and I can't wait to help with our grandkids....
This is fantastic, all glory to Him who has gave you both such great grace. It's quite sad tho, that such virtue is being seen as an "undue burden" which is also part of the postmodernist mindset. What's worse, you find more of that mindset even in churches. The comments here that are livid about what Tim said are prime examples.
The more pastor read the question the more it became evident that both differ on many foundational fundamental issues especially on the role of the woman. I would advice since he being the head would have to have an honest conversation with her because the differences they have is what leads to quarrels n bitter disagreements in marriage.
@@benwassabi6182 The whole idea of the "secret rapture" and "7 year tribulation" was invented in the 1830s by the likes of John Nelson Darby, before which the church never taught such things for 1800 years-just letting you know.
Hello. I am a single mom, I have one kid and upcoming Septmeber is the time when school will start. I cant homeschool because I have only one child, she needs a company and learn to comunictae with other people. If anyone has thoughts, please share.
Your child will need to enter public or private school since you will work to provide for her. Train her diligently in your home for the next 18 years to love God, obey Christ, and be pure. 🩷✝️🛐
Tim u say the right way is the faith way.. but you haven’t been 50/50 in ur view u have your own ideas in place.. ur basically saying “hey lads u can go left or right either way is good.. but don’t go left coz left is bad”
This guy needs to run. She is the equivalent of the guy going to Bible college to find a christian wife (submissive!) He is not equally yoked with her....
I think the woman also needs to run. Just three months in and he's telling her she has to throw away all she's worked hard for as soon as they marry and will have to homeschool? Why do some Christian men think that a wife has to stay home as soon as they get married? The Proverbs 31 wife was a homemaker and yet she went out and traded and brought. Tim said he asked his future wife lots of questions and out of that he made the decision that he wanted her to be his wife. I think this young man should've done the same thing and then look for a like-minded woman rather than deciding she will be his wife then telling her what she will do - after all, she's the one that will be doing all the hard work. I do think homeschooling is best though. schools corrupt children.
@@moveuself he isn't telling her what to do. I'd say he testing her to see where she stands and sounds like she failed showing she isn't really a Christian and god says not to marry a unbeliever so it's him that should stay away from her. You can't just flip it around and say she should run too it doesn't work like that.
@@howardmakely2169 that Isn't a balanced approach. All she is doing is trying to turn it on the guy to make it sound like the girl is the real Christian and he is not and feminist like to do this cause they hate taking responsibility so they try to turn everything around to try and make it the man's fault and not theirs. The fact you just agreed with her without pointing out any of the flaws in her argument shows your not even being a man or you got no brain but I know you do so I'll stick with the fact you got no backbone.
@@CT--km1le Why are you being rude to Howard Makely? I never implied that the man is not a christian. Why would I? They are BOTH christians but at the moment they see things differently. Was Barnabas not a christian because he had a disagreement with the apostle Paul and they parted company? Was Apollos not a christian because he his teaching had to be corrected by Priscilla and Aquilla? and i'm sure there's many other examples of christians having disagreements/misundertandings in the new testament. I am not a feminist. I did state in my first post that schools corrupt and homeschooling is better. My issue was the man's approach.
I would like to hear a reverse of this letter? Because this is where I am. I have children with someone who is not saved. We are not yet Married. He knows my utter commitment God and also has agreed to remain abstinent until we are married. How much do I have to submit to him if he leads me away from God?
@Love4Christ always It IS black and white! What communion does Christ have with Satan? You are DIRECTLY disobeying God, and to live in that state of disobedience brings serious questions to the validity of your profession of faith. It sounds like you're not willing to take up the cross of death to self that Christ requires of all those who follow Him. Matthew 10:37-39 He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it. 2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness? 2 Chronicles 19:2 Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the LORD and so bring wrath on yourself from the LORD? Psalm 26:4-5 I do not sit with deceitful men, nor will I go with pretenders. I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I will not sit with the wicked.
The dude has an amazing girlfriend and he's complaining? Unbelievable. The Bible doesn't say a wife should only be a housewife 24/7. His wife can have a career and still be a housewife as he can be a man that can work and still come home and be a father too.
You reason like the devil himself and sound like you never read the Bible, or take it seriously. Titus 2:3-5 Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, WORKERS AT HOME, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God WILL NOT BE DISHONORED.
@@truthsource: It doesn't say she should only be a housewife. The proverbs 31 worked and had her business. Secondly, the immense majority of men around the world can't afford a full time housewife plus take care of kids financially. Use your brain..
@@J-luna The immense majority of men around the world are going to Hell (Matthew 7:13-14, and they can't afford to obey God because they are too busy working for their sinful lusts, and they don't trust God will provide for those who honor Him. And for the record, you fail miserably with biblical hermeneutics. Scripture interprets itself: Titus 2 does not contradict Proverbs 31. The word of God is dishonored when men and women do not embrace their God-given roles.
@@truthsource: I'm not arging about roles. And you know what God promises to provide and says in Timothy with what you should be content with? Food and clothing. Notice it didn't say a home or modern convenience was humans use in the 21th century like air conditioning, heat for winter, cars, phones, computer, internet, health care, college etc. So unless you want to live outside in the rain and cold with your wife and 3 kids I suggest you let a woman give you a helping hand financially as the proverbs 31 woman helped out her husband financially. Poor Christian men in poor countries around the world can't support a wife and 3 kids plus himself making minimum wage or an average salary. Get it now? If not too bad.
TruthSource - the older women Timothy is talking about is widows - in case you don’t know what that means women who husbands have died, never mentions working women.. before you go accuse Someone of not reading the bible, u should follow ur own advice
29:22 two people having an adult discussion about an issue they disagree on and with consideration for each other, finding middle ground where they will both be content? Dear god, what a nightmare. We could never have that.
Tyler Beach yes sir. What he describes as bad (a husband and wife discussing things and finding common ground) is exactly what I want and what most rational people want. That, and he contradicts himself later in the video. He tells men to lord it over their wives, what they say goes, they should be out hunting, fixing roofs, whatever, and then later saying that if a man wants to change a diaper, that’s his decision. But earlier he said that it’s wrong for a husband to stay home with the children while the wife makes money. Here’s a revolutionary idea: let other people figure out how they want to live their lives. Encourage rational discussion, not possession and submission. Women are autonomous beings just as men are. The family is just as much hers as it is his. So is the home. These are not his kingdom or his collection of playthings to make whatever decisions he pleases about. Sorry, long rant. I just hate this mentality I see among so many Christians. I see it creating dissension and discontent in marriages because one person being lord and the other being servant doesn’t make a couple happy in the long run. Gee, I wonder why?
@@lizleapley9341 so is it safe to assume you're not a Christian? Everything Pastor Tim says here is right out of the Bible, not his words but God's Word. He doesn't contradict himself either. You need to listen to it again. Your positions are worldly and not biblical
I have been married for 12 years. My wife and I have three great kids. We have a vibrant healthy happy home that seeks to honor God, and live up to his word as best as we can, God has shown us such favor in blessing us with peace and joy over the years, and we follow this model ( complementarianism) as closely as possible. And yes My wife and I have adult conversations and make adult decisions, but when It really boils down to it I have to make the final decision. That's not a small matter. My wife wholly embraces biblical womanhood, teaches our children, and cares for the home. You will not find a more content and peaceful woman I can assure you. And why? Because God has designed the home this way, and when we walk in obedience to his word, we are blessed.
Tyler Beach actually, I am a Christian. I do apologize if I came off as unkind towards you. This is just something I believe very strongly about. I’ve researched this topic a lot and reached my own conclusions. I do think a lot of complementarianism is spot on. Men and women are different. You’d have to be delusional to deny that. But I do disagree with Tim’s disgust at finding common ground. He laughs at it! That blows my mind. His attitude is not one of equality and fairness. I also wasn’t saying that all marriages that are based on more of a, let’s say, power differential, are unhappy. I see marriages like that that do work, and I think that’s fantastic. It seems to work for some people. I have my doubts that there isn’t always some niggling discontent in the back of wives’ minds about their lack of an ability to make final decisions, but that’s not my call. But I also see ones where the wife is basically a non-entity, and that’s objectively not okay.
(After establishing an important principle, Tim then reads the question that was sent in at 5:34.)
Dear brother Tim.
What is the meaning of Matthew 5:48 "But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect." (NLT) ?

Ive never seen a shirt as blue as that one 😊 Anyway God bless you brother Tim
literally was about to comment on that shirt lol.
Tim’s fashion choices never fail to entertain. Bless his heart 💙🩵💙
Thank you pastor Tim for touching on that subject.
Im waiting for Jesus to come back and deliver me from this sick twisted world
God bless everyone
pétri pat Jesus isn’t coming until after the tribulation just letting you know
We are going to go through a WHOLE lot worse before Jesus comes back...

TruthSource my point exactly. The rapture isn’t happening. We’re all going through tribulation until the end when Jesus returns.
This was great!
Well spoken
Postmodernism is in the private Christian schools too, also where do you think rich pagans send their kids.
