At work I listen to Brother Dave and Brother Carter frequently. I actually listened to Pastor Conlon preach Pastor Wilkerson's funeral last evening. These Spirit-filled men inspire me a Christian, a man, and a pastor of a small country church.
I am going to vacation in New York. A year ago, I wanted to go to famous taverns. I renounced my atheist beliefs in December, and now I HAVE to see TSC!
I cannot get enough of David Wilkerson’s convicting powerful messages that are directly from our Lord. Powerful, sound doctrine and exposes the truth. A true man of God. I get chills and cry. So underrated and so ahead of his time. I cry when I hear his voice so full of the spirit, so devoted and hurting for The Lord’s lost souls. So raw. Thank you Lord for sending us this man and thank you 🙏 for letting me discover his teachings and have access to them. Everyone must hear this man so close to God that no one can deny the authority of the message cutting but out of love. RIP :(
Amen!!
Have been at TSC so many times! I was impacted when I read “Between the Cross & The Switchblade” and “Run Nicky Run”…and to see David Wilkerson so humble, with such a powerful message, wow! Words can’t express! To God be the Glory!
I think Times Square Church is a beautiful picture of the heart of God. So blessed and thankful for David Wilkerson!
What a wonderful story of what God can do when ordinary people put their faith in Jesus Christ...there is nothing God cannot do if His people surrender their lives to Him....
So do I. David Wilkerson's pure heart
So fabulous!! Pastor Wilkerson your preaching and pastoring is so great! Thank you! You were a faithful servant!
Pastor Davic Wilkersin ,Nicky Cruz &Pastor Billy Graham & family are the hidden treasures which God showed me
Times Square Church is God's wonderful blessing to New York City!
I loved Pastor Dave and loved his faith, walk, sermons, books, and how much he loved the Saints and the unsaved. Truly a man who loved and a true Shepherd. Amen
God be glorified in this blessed testimony!
✝️🙏❤️ I love this church, thank You Lord for helping me to find it online, 🥰
Good times at this church when Pastor David Wilkinson was alive. I remember him always saying that we do not do repeat services at this church. Every sermon was brand new. May God raise up another man of God like Pastor David Wilkinson 🙏
I'm a Texas woman but I have always loved Times Square Church! I heard about it and realize that the man who was the pastor in the movie, cross and the switchblade was the pastor of this church. This was very touching!
The first sermon i ever herd David Wilkerson preach really brought me closer to Jesus. God gifted David Wilkerson with words that i could understand and god through him helped me to grow. I thank God for Shepherds who are obedient to his voice.
Same us me deborah
Same with me and I'm from Portugal. David Wilkerson was a man who inspire us to get closer to Jesus and read His word. And he also had a sweet sense of humour. I thank God for people like these. ❤️
Hallelujah same with me
Same here, I had a deeper encounter with God and I saw the cross for the first time in my life after being a churchgoer for 20 years in Chile. Hunger for the word and fasting and praying came out of that encounter with Jesus, and it started by reading the Cross and the Switchblade and listening to his sermons....so thankful for his life surrendered to God
God, Jesus is truly the centre of Time Square Church… God bless and many more souls saved before the coming of Jesus Christ our saviour. Well done servants of the Lord 😀❤️
In 2006 driving up from Virginia to New York City with a van full of Parochial high schoolers, for a weekend excursion, I asked the Lord, where should I take us to church on the Sunday - the immediate - and surprising reply was 'Take them to Times Square Church'. So I did. I remembered the church and was aware that David Wilkerson had founded it; and expected to hear Pastor Wilkerson that weekend. Instead a man I'd never heard of came out to the podium, asked for an annointing on his message, and got it. Pastor Carter Conlon went on to preach one of the most amazing church sermons I had ever heard. I have remained a 'distant' member of the Times Square Church since that day, and it has transformed my life.
Your Lord surely did! The Eloheim of ABRAHAM, ISAAC and JACOB would never say go to a building.
The Cross and the Switchblade was the hook that God used to call, save and free me. Thank you David Wilkerson for your obidience to Gods calling.
That is my dream to go to time square church and be able to hear Pastor Carter speak he is so anointed and the music is just amazing God has truly put his hand on the church and all of those pastors maybe one day i'll be able to go I can't afford it now but maybe one day God will bless me and allow me to be able to go just once and hear them speak
Isaiah Giles May God bless you ! I'm wishing you wholeheartedly that your desire come true one day.
I don't feel carter Collins. David was sure of his purpose and I agreed with every sentence his sermon was about. Holy spirit will guide you. No one like David ever!!!! Hallelujah
Amen. Beautiful Testimony of God's love and grace. To God be the glory! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! Amen.
I never had a chance to meet David Wilkerson but I tell you his messages and the anointing he had so impacted my life… his sermon with god all things are possible saved me from a very dark place and recalibrated my life I’m so thankful that his fruit still remains
When I listen to this I cry...I said Lord I wanted to be used by you ..I want the church that j pastor to be the change in the communities and in the lives of people
Every time I watch this I am moved to tears and joy at he same time.
God bless TSC and keep it safe.
Ione Snow
I love you David Wilkerson, I wish I had the chance to meet you. But I will in heaven 😇💙🙏🙏 🙏😇.
How amazing is our God who leads a police officer and his wife/partner from Ottawa Ontario Canada to eventually be the senior pastor of a wonderful, God fearing and loving church in the heart of New York City!! God is so Amazing! Greetings from Northern Ontario Canada. God bless!
Thsts it! Thank you. That's the puzzle piece
Truly this was a great man. My prayers and comfort go out to his family.
Rev. Wilkerson passed in 2011. But his work still goes on through his testimony and love and obedience to The Lord. Greatly missed. Still being greatly used by God. He ran a good race. I am NOT God but I truly believe he made it!!! ❤💕❤💕❤💕
@@graceperez942 I love you grace
Amen, amen, & amen!!!!
THANK GOD FOR TIMES SQ CHURCH AMEN AND AMEN.

David wilkerson really loved the Lord and had a gr6 heart for people God used him mighty and lives where changed
This church is a blessing! For nearly 2 months now, every day I listen to one of Rev Tim’s sermons.
Ooooh how i Thank God for wonders through Pastor David Wilkerson.
One preaching from this man was enough to wake me up about my christian life as a son of God since I'm never the same i started walking like david wilkerson walked with jesus once I've seen him clearly in a vision he came to give me a message about my mission he gave me a message to preach.
#seek god with all youe heart and god is ready to reveal himself to you.
God Bless David Wilkerson what a legacy of love and hope he left behind and his prayer life and his prayer to send Carter Conlon and now Tim Dilena
Brother Dave did the Lord’s work. Dave went out and preached the gospel to the lost, sick and broken hearts. Today they don’t do that, but seek after the things of the flesh. They speak words to please the people and gain their greed. They are more taking then giving. There has been a great falling away from the truth and many have turned to partial who gets a seat and is welcome. I have been homeless for just about three years and I have no brother or sister in Christ that truly care about my circumstances. I know that if brother Dave was still with us, I could call him and he would never judge me but give me mercy.
I feel this too . I hope so for you you find true fellowship with true believers. I know i am hoping for it.
My brother in Christ, do not give up the good fight. Keep in prayer. You have God the Father to call on when you feel down an out. I dont know you but i do know Gods love for us does not fold for his children. It endures for ever. His works are mighty an like no others. Trust in Him. Please dont give up. Call on the Lord Jesus. Ask him to put the right ppl in your life. I love you brother, an ggod ppl are still around.
@@helen1964onmusic my sis in Christ, dont give up. You are loved, you are more than you past decisions an choices. Let go an let God. He loves us all.
Adelina Docanto our Lord does not dwell in buildings. The good church is made by Christ and only Christ
JesusSavedMyLife amen 🙏 I know just what the spirit of Christ Jesus did for you. Love you too see you in the kingdom

This servant of Almighty GOD has been (and still is) an instrument to impact my life, as well through his video preaching/sermon as through his writing (daily devotions from worldchallenge, ministry directored by his son Gary) and his books of which I hold five of them. And I am convinced it is the same for million poeple around the world. Now he has is reward: HEAVEN and JESUS! Praise GOD and to HIM be all the Glory and the Honnor!

Amazing !!!!! Go God!
what I keep from bro Dave Wilkerson is his fatherly spirit.
New Yorker's are the kindest people I have ever met. I would advise anyone to visit New York. I visited the Twin Towers in 1990 and prayed.

What a God we Serve. What men of God . Thank God FOR TIME SQUAR CHURCH
Praise the Lord
Greetings from Portugal. I thank God for David Wilkerson. The words that God put in his heart help me a lot. His sermons were/are for sure an inspiration. All glory to Jesus! Thank you for people like these, God ❤️

Pastor Carter Conlon truly speaks to my heart and soul. When I ask God a question, or pray, there have been more than a couple times His answer comes through Pastor Carter! It's amazing and beautiful how our Lord works! ✝️🕊️💕
Thanks to brother Dave ministry and the tapes that came out of Times Square Church, I had a deeper encounter with God and I saw the cross for the first time in my life after being a churchgoer for 20 years in Chile. Hunger for the word and fasting and praying came out of that encounter with Jesus, and it started by reading the Cross and the Switchblade and listening to his sermons....so thankful for his life surrendered to God
Praise God
So amazing how God has used Pastor Dave. I live not far from Philipsburg PA and went there to see the town where God spoke to him. There truly was more cows than people so Nicky Cruz said. So blessed by this church.
Gracias Dios por estos ministerios ungidos !!!!!
Oh that I was a quarter as selfless as David Wilkerson. I have so much filth and judgement in me and control and fear of people not wanting them to go to hell. Lord have mercy on me I'm very sinful. God bless this church man and men with a heart for the Lord. Glory to God man. I have a special love for men like David Wilkerson and Carter Conlon.
Glory to God in the Highest!
Thank you Father God for loving us so much through your son Y'shua Jesus the Christ.
With God all things are possible! Matthew 19: 26
Wonderful!
Glory be to God
I had the honor of going there in 2000 or 2001 I had the honor of hearing this man of God
I pray one day I can visit this church and meet pastor David wilkerson
He passed away 2011
I wish you could too. God took him home after a car accident in 2011, but you can find many of his sermons & other material regarding his life & ministry online. Best wishes & abundant blessings Tony!
Awesome!! I did not know about their history! I would like to get to know the place, because it is kind of a dream to know chuches in United States. I'm from Brazil and I see David Wilkerson as a real evangelist and I'm sure that I can learn more when it comes to preach The Gospel!
I really respect this church. You can see that they are so genuine and sincere; they don't follow false movements. I would love to visit from my home in England, maybe one day: I would come to New York just to do that!
Amen brother
God bless.
I remember what a Joy 🙏
Wow the Beauty of the Love of Jesus on earth and all those involved. Blessings to you for posting this testimony.
Amazing grace🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Es una historia muy bella. Valdría la pena que la subtitularan, ya que en latinoamerica muchas personas amaban al reverendo Wilkerson, y por ello conocer esta historia sería de apoyo para esos hermanos.
Great story blessed
"Too late have I loved you oh lord. Beauty so ancient and new." I regret my drug addiction and grave sexual sins. I wish I could have Shepard people like this and to an extent I help in a much smaller scale. Thank the lord for this pastor.
Yes amen
Brother Wilkerson is gone but his preaching is still making a difference...A true man of God...😅
I had been in New York in 1990 and in 41 and 42nd Street. The whole area had been surrounded in so called 'adult entertainment' which myself and my colleagues found absolutely shocking. The whole place felt like the absence of God. Drug addiction, prostitution and homelessness. It was terrrible. I stayed in Brooklyn for about a week at a Salvation Army church. I often thought about David Wilkerson and his work with the gangs and how Nicky Cruz had been saved. It has had an indelible affect on my life.
Also, me again (!) it was great to meet up with Bill Murray by chance in 42nd Street [actor Ghost Busters; Groundhog Day]. He really made me laugh and we told him we're from England. He said, "I thought there was something strange about ya" and really made us laugh. God bless Bill Murray.
We are saved by grace and through faith we have a heart commitment and confess that gives us an assurance but then we become team and the good works that we do do not aid salvation but our chance to testify of our relationship to God about Christ who makes up our everything So God is all and we are free to love and do all as Christ’s team both each single person and then also the whole church and as the work of God who lives in us by his Spirit. This means unlike the Jews of old the Spirit is always living with the true Christian who then transforms his mind in like with the word of God
Just imagine for a few moments how awe-inspiring our Lord's Heaven is going to be like. When He raised Times Square Church in the very center of Satan's domain, glory be to our Father for His never ending Love for us all...Halleluja!
MTS irmãos da Igreja onde eu me reunia leram o Livro A Cruz e o Punhal,e Depois da Cruz e o Punhal.Brotou em mim um despertar para evangelizar ,principalmente drogados.
Back in 1978 a Baptist preacher & his wife gave me the book The Cross & the switchblade. Besides their extraordinary care for & interest in my wretched situation, they were the first people to show me, through their actions, that being Christian means so much more than simply dressing up for Sunday services. Thank You Lord Jesus Christ for leading them to me in my darkest hours.
such a God fearing preacher. pray he is with the good Lord now.
Fui a NY despues del ataque de Sept 11, en el mes de Nov como me hubiera gustado ir a este templo. SR JESUS, bendice a esta ciudad tan herida en esta pandemia
GLORY TO GOD FOREVER 🙏 😍🇮🇱.THANK YOU GOD FOR THE LIFE OF DAVID WILKERSON 😍
"The Spirit of The Lord hath annointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek he hath sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prisons for them that are bound. To proclaim the acceptable year of The Lord and the day of vengeance of our God. To comfort all that mourn to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion to give unto them beauty for ashes the oil of joy for mourning the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.
GOD took me from Berkeley to preach on the other end of 42nd Street in 1996! There was a table with missionaries preaching against abortion. The LORD led me to them and they put me on the mike! A man came and pulled on my thumb, but the head missionary said, "Talk to me! Talk to me!" He said, "She's disturbing my customers!" She told me..."Go ahead and preach!" A lady came and pulled on my thumb and the missionary said the same thing to her! I finished the message that "Sin is an iron furnace" (that hasn't been lit up...yet). When the message was over, we prayed together, and I went my way to Chicago before returning home to California! Never saw the sights! But GOD had His way! GLORY!
