Practicing Christianity is the hardest thing in the world. Goes against human nature, but it's what must be done to belong in God's Kingdom. It's a never-ending battle, but it does get easier, and nothing else compares to a relationship with God thru Jesus's love and guidance. Amen to your insight. Made my day.
Practicing Christianity, our actions, is not what it takes to BELONG to Gods kingdom. Belief is what it takes to belong to Gods kingdom. John 3:16 "...whosoever BELIEVES in him shall not perish but have everlasting life." Once a person believes they are in the kingdom. Our actions have to do with our sanctification, not our justification.
@@seanh70 But Jesus clearly says that TRUE belief is following Christ and his teachings. You can't say you believe, and then keep living like the world. Look at Luke 6:46-49. Remember, all the demons, and Satan himself, believes Jesus is the Messiah. It's important what they do with that knowledge. Read Acts 2: 37-38 ... to be saved, we must be baptized. And don't get confused about "works" ... being baptized isn't a "work", it's a gift.
@ You’re wrong. Baptism is absolutely a work. You can either be saved BY GRACE or BY WORKS, but NEVER by both. Grace is either a gift or it’s not. Christs sacrifice either worked or it didn’t. And the demons you refer to in James 2:19 refers to an intellectual belief or recognition of the truth, but it is not the kind of faith that results in salvation. The original Greek word is πιστεύω (pisteuó). The demons' belief, although it causes them to tremble, does not lead them to salvation because it lacks the transformative qualities of true saving faith. The implication is in James 2:19: Here, pisteuó refers to the demons’ INTELLECTUAL acknowledgment of the truth about God and Christ. They believe in the existence of God, the holiness of Jesus, and His authority. However, this belief does not save them because it lacks the trust and relational aspect of true saving faith.

@@tatesinclair6837baptism in the Holy Spirit and water baptism are different. Of course, water baptism is great and should be done, but it is not a do or die situation.
The Word tells us that “even the devils believe and tremble.” That belief leads us to “Repent, be baptized every one of you , in the NAME of Jesus Christ and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost(Spirit). For this promise is unto You and to your children and All that are afar off. As many as the Lord our God shall call.” Acts 2:38. The Lord showed me WE MUST be baptized IN HIS NAME. The name has power, the titles are not. For Christ is the Father, He is the Son, and He is the Holy Ghost. For in HIM, Christ, dwells ALL the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Jesus bless you
The fence belongs to the evil one… GOD’s got something a lot better, the abundant life in Jesus Christ the Lord. Thanks for this video brother, it’s good. Glory to GOD
Thank you for posting this. I needed to hear it. I have my struggles like all of us have. I have always been that guy on the fence. I love our Lord and saviour but then I make myself a hypocrite by cussing, drinking and speaking badly of others. You can't have it both ways. Thank you and God bless. ✝️
If I am driving on a narrow road high on a mountain side, I am going to hug the side of the mountain to be safe. I'm not going to see how well I can ride the edge of the road overlooking the cliff edge. Don't play games with Satan. He cheats, and will ensnare you. He knows your weaknesses better than you. God loves you, but love is not license to go back and forth from him to the Devils' playground.
Amen, we should let GOD’s love and grace to empower us to cling to Him, to avoid sin. Jesus saves us from sin, not to sin. What GOD has for us is so much better than sin. Love y’all
Not only that, with God it's love Him with ALL your heart, mind, and soul. There is no room for any spiritual darkness. A heart ruled by Jesus because it's Jesus's love in us that we reflect back to God.
John 10:28 “And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.” When we are Christ’s, he has us. That doesn’t mean we should sin. Sin is like a disease or a hard drug… when we partake, we bring suffering on ourselves, and sometimes upon others. We have to remember to keep taking our ‘prescription’… which is Christ.
Great reminder for our walk with the Lord. We need to reach out to the Lord when tempted. Jeremiah 32:27--"I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for me?"
What’s fascinating to me is that Christianity teaches that it essentially “up to you” to “make a decision for Christ” and thereby save yourself…becoming your own savior by having made the wise choice to believe…aaaand then maintain said salvation by maintaining “good” behavior etc…this throws God’s sovereignty out the window along with Christ’s “finished work”. What one ends up with then is what we see; Self righteous “believers” ever focussing on their own behavior. Truth is we “sin” all day every day, not knowingly mind you, but we are to consider ourselves as having been crucified with Christ, though our flesh is still present and antagonizing the Spirit daily. However, Christ is the One who overcame sin and death once for all and shares with us His victory that we walk in NEWNESS according to the Spirit and not according to the old way of micro-managing the flesh or following arbitrary rules and regulations…because “It is God who works in us to will and to work according to His good pleasure.” So just relax, do all the good that God has placed before you, knowing victory is assured because of God’s unfailing Love towards all, shown to mankind by Jesus the Christ.❤
I asked Christ to be my savior 55 years ago at age 20 after serving in Vietnam. God's way is always the best way. Read the Bible daily. Talk to God and let Him talk to you. If your not failing miserably then you don't appreciate God's standards. The good news is He loves us the way we are. Ask Him for help. If your in Christ it ends well for you.
Beautiful! What boggles my mind is this. There will be many arguing doctrine about 'keeping the law' in a legalistic way, or pushing 'eternal security' and a license to sin, all of which are wrong. But once we see and know what God/Jesus went through to save us, why is the answer of some "how far can I play in the enemies territory and still be okay?" "What is the bare minimum I have to do to be saved?" etc. It is heartbreaking. Our response should be out of LOVE for Him; "What is the MOST I can do for you? How can I honor, obey, serve, bring glory to you, surrender to your will? I want to strive for the highest calling, not the least!" Where are these people? In that there is no fear. It should be the sincere response of His true bride. Imagine you as a man went through torture to rescue the bride you were after. You succeeded and after an embrace, her first thought is "how little can I do to love and honor him and still be accepted in return?" If he knew this thought, would it not be a knife in his heart? The Lord does know all our thoughts and our heart.
If Christianity knew the gospel, his return would be almost immediately. God is not about salvation, the obsession of the vast majority of professing Christianity. God, is about after salvation, the kingdom of God, the gospel. Thy kingdom come. He is the truth, the truth said the gospel is: Mk. 1:14-15, simple. Mt. 24:14, gospel, and end. LOOKY HERE! 1Cor. 15:24-24, simple gospel fulfilled kingdom delivered up the end of Mt 24:14. STOP CALLING THE LENGTHY COMPLICATED NEED FOR A SAVIOR ROCKET SCIENCE, THE GOSPEL.
Jesus is the salvation sent to us to bring the world of humankind back into harmony with God and his promises for the universe and the world in which we live. It all about him and his original purposes. We are not the center of his purposes but a part of the whole picture.
@chomama1628 Why did you mention the whole picture? That's why I said God is not about salvation. HE IS ABOUT AFTER SALVATION. AFTER SALVATION, the kingdom of God, the gospel preached by Jesus the savior. You are not to idolize Jesus, you are to Mt. 6:33. It's ALL ABOUT GOD, Jesus says so. Your salvation is as easy as getting out of bed, your place in the kingdom of God (Gospel) is a matter of how much you love GOD in obedience. Christianity OR NOT, salvation is easy, according to Jesus, so please read the gospel as many times as necessary to see it's about you forgetting your Lord's prayer. Thy kingdom come gospel. You 6:33, you get Jesus automatically, easy salvation.
We will never regret going 100% for God/Jesus Christ. Once we understand, surrendering to his will and be coming the potters clay , No matter what takes place we know that God is with us. And that he works all things out for good purpose.
I don’t need things so much is something to do. My health is terrible since I got saved but it was going down before that. I’ve been trying to make a programming career happen for 14 years and I wouldn’t say I’m obsessed with that I just want something as a profession that I enjoy. But I am so in knots that I can’t even function for fear that anything I do is idolatry. I’m afraid to like anything at this point. I’ve prayed and prayed and prayed and I don’t know what the answer is.
@@Learnerofthings I think the problem is when you love something more than God/bow down and worship that. People have become do legalistic like they make it seem like God doesn’t want you to enjoy things. Jesus was a carpenter. He spent many hours in carpentry, but we know it’s wasn’t an idol. Just because you enjoy something or spend a lot of time doing something doesn’t make it an idol. God knows your heart. And the very fact that you are asking yourself this question and your stomach is in knots shows that the Holy Spirit is in your heart. And it hasn’t become an idol for you. Keep that in mind and hope this helps.
If you've really prayed and prayed and prayed for this answer to the question of liking things... what if I could give you an answer for it? If you read the scriptures. Look up a story called Lehi's dream. Then read and think about it. In that story, the desires of Babylon are; riches, wealth, idolatry, immorality, fine things to look above others, popularity, seeking power. Outside of Babylon, people tend to look for the fruit of the love of God, and rewards from heaven. Now some will say we need things to live. That's true. But outside of Babylon, we tend to look at worldly possessions more like what kind of tools do you need to live. And to live simply. And you can breakdown the needs of your family down into; food, shelter, fuel, clothes, and sometimes tools and transportation can be other variables that some need. Sure you need tools but they don't have to be riches of the world. And by not seeking for riches, you end up more free. But the point is... the world and what it seeks are different from what the mindset is for people who want to be a disciple. Disciples still need things and tools to live and materials. But they don't worship those materials, and don't put the materials and possessions as their reason for being. The view outside of Babylon also looks at things more like, what do you need to be self sufficient. Self sufficiency is good. People in BABYLON will never have enough, and covet wealth so much that they put themselves into captivity also. CAPTIVITY loses freedom. People in Babylon look at stuff like that's their reason for being, and lusts of the flesh, to the point of becoming like beasts. So its interesting that you read in the last days it will be beast nations that cause a lot of destruction.
Remember God is for you, He desires good, godly things for you life. He knows your heart and I believe if you think of it this way: I like my work, but I love my God - you will be just fine. [Col 3:23 NKJV] 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, You have God-given abilities and talents. When you put them to use in good honest work, you honor Him. God bless ✝️
It sounds to me that you're on the right path because you're crucifying your flesh by doubting or questioning what you're doing in light of respect towards Jesus Christ. That is most definitely the Holy Spirit within God bless
Brethren our battle with sin is NOT fence sitting. We are to battle it but we will have failings we are set to fail and will fail - doesn't seem fair but God will NOT have you provide perfection of your own. You are NOT to shine brighter than your King. Christs perfection is YOUR perfection. You are to be perfected only in His work and in Him and not of your own. So when you fall return to the throne of grace - 1000 times 1000 - times a day.
Correct. However, I think that in this video, he is describing that kind of person that says he loves God but then does not make a real effort to change his life. These are the kind of people that call the Lord but they didn't create a personal relationship with Him, so they may risk condemnation. What you are describing, instead, is a Christian who tries to fight sin with all his force every day and, well, fails, like every human being. Do not fear if you are someone like you are describing but trust God in His power to change your heart :)
Another thing I hear is “I’m not ready to decide yet”. But by not deciding to give your life to Jesus Christ , you are making a decision to not give your life to Jesus Christ ! Think about that ! I can’t seem to get people to understand that . I don’t mean to sound judgey but I do hope to get that message across to anyone who will hear it ! We only have one life , one chance to get this right ! Matthew 7:13 , 14 . The gospel of the gates . One wide and one narrow , and few shall pass through it .
The rampant paranoia around "works" has led a lot of folks to have the same relationship with God as the demons: they know true things but simply tremble in fear and do not obey the commands of God. Or at least cry out to God for help in obeying His commands. Or reach out to others to establish accountability and support. And so on. They remain stagnant, waiting for God to make a move, as if that's who is still holding the ball at this stage of the redemptive story.
That's a great analogy! I have found, however, that in the U.S. at least, The Devil's greatest victory has not been in tempting people with "sins of the flesh", or with "New Age" silliness, or "wokeness", but has been in his ability to get professing Christians to hate their neighbors, and to malign and demonize Christ's Least of These, in particular the poor, the homeless, and the migrant. Christ tells us that for those who ignore or mistreat them, their reward will be "eternal punishment" (Matthew 25:32-46). But really, hating any of our neighbors, as many do for xenophobic reasons, goes directly against what Christ called the Greatest Commandment (on which all "the law" and the prophets hang). Then, of course, there is the issue of Christians who find nothing wrong in admiring the rich, or for that matter in dreaming of being rich themselves, despite the fact that not only does Christ instruct us specifically NOT to "store up treasures on Earth" (hoard wealth), but had THIS to say about the rich....."Woe to you who are rich, for you already have your reward" (Luke 6:24), and "It is easier for a camel to travel through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24). Of course, Christ does not say it is IMPOSSIBLE for the rich to go to Heaven, but He makes it pretty clear that it is EXTREMELY unlikely that they will.
Illegal Aliens are not migrants U don’t steal becuz ur hungry or cold - u ASK Asking in the USA means applying to immigrate Sneaking in and then using our (decreasingly small) taxpayer wealth to feed n house u is breaking & entering and theft
I don't think it's mentioned as often as it should but, the struggle with realizing what your walk was before you realize where your heart truly laid. Your mind and mouth professing Christ as Lord and Savior and your heart is no where near. And then of course the struggle that comes with bringing your heart nearer. The venom that is bitterness and resentment being met with kindheartedness and forgiveness, the very thing that should be in your heart in the stead of said venom. It's hard. But, thank you, I greatly appreciated seeing this video.
Amen. Only appealing for a season, and only pleasurable for a short season. And we reap what we sow, as saints especially. Godspeed, to being conformed into the image of Christ; the will of our Father You are a total doppelgänger to a fella on HOUSE M.D. Season 7 Episode 17
I have a concerning question. I wonder if a saved person can 100 percent overcome each and every bad habit that they have, such as drinking, smoking, overeating, listening to secular programs, etc. Can a Christian soldier claim to be saved even though he has to eliminate others as a job?
I have a question if you don’t mind: I know that GOD is good and just and that He must punish sin, and I’ve read that GOD loved the world by sending His Son Jesus to save us, and I believe this. I’ve also read that love covers a multitude of sins. But I’ve recently heard some teachings that have begun to change my perspective. These teachings say that GOD hates sinners and that it’s wrong to tell people that GOD loves them. I mean, I understand GOD’s wrath against sin, but in His love GOD provided His Son Jesus as our Savior, since we’ve all been sinners. Yes, we need to return to GOD in repentance, turning away from sin, and we need to believe in Jesus to be saved. But we also see John 3:16, 1 John and Romans 5:8, and if believers are supposed to be Jesus’ disciples, to become more and more like Him, that would mean that we are to hate sinners, but we have the instruction to love one another as He loved us, and to even love our enemies, so I’m really confused. Does GOD ‘s love for me change too? Not trying to be arrogant, I’m just confused. Also, as a young man trying to witness throughout his high school, I frequently told people about the love of Jesus as well as their need for repentance, for many people seem somewhat responsive to hearing about His love, but now I feel uneasy sharing GOD’s love due to teachings that GOD hates sin and the sinner. I don’t want to lie, so is it wrong for me to tell people that Jesus loves them? I understand that we can find forgiveness in repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, but who does GOD love? Is it that GOD opposes sinners and their sinfulness or that He actually hates them? Who does GOD love, and can I tell my fellow high schoolers that the Lord Jesus loves them? I also have been going through a season of spiritual warfare, Jesus has been carrying me through. Please pray for me.
@@Soldier-n5k good question, so Sin separates up from God. But God doesn’t “hate the sinner” I mean scripture “while we were sinners Christ died for us. That doesn’t sound like a hateful act to me. It’s ok to tell people who are in sin that God loves them because he does. I mean he healed sinners. He sat with them. Ate with them. I mean ask yourself how the thief on the cross would fit into that theology. Because he was a man who didn’t have a relationship or nothing he was up there for his crimes and Jesus told him. You’ll be with me in paradise. Hope that makes sense. Good question! Keep telling people Jesus loves them because he does.
I hope this come across correctly. I don't believe God has ever hated us but hates the sins we do cause it separates us from his love. He has always wanted the best for us and will even try and make our lives better even without us asking him for it. It's like when your child draws on the wall with a sharpie or paint, we may get mad at the actions he does and may scold him for doing so but at the end of the day he is still our child and we love him. Never feel scared to preach and show the love the Father and the Son has for us, it's only in the fear of spreading the good word that the enemy gets power and you should not grant it that power over you. Preach and share the good news of Jesus' love for us.
God doesnt love sinners. It is nowhere in the Bible. God loveD the world so much that He even send his son Jesus so that whosoever believes in Him, may be saved. Thats a whole other thing. You can tell you fellow students that God has send Jesus and God loves us to obey His commandments. Then they will be granted eternal life with Him! Well, thats how I understand it..
God does not want us to suffer, or be bored, or have no sense of purpose. If we have things we love to do, write harmless stories, play harmless love songs, or music, dance, paint or draw pictures-- harmless things, it is wrong to pretend God doesn't approve. God is who gives us gifts and talents.
I see it as if Christianity is preached to children, and over time, we grow and understand more about what Christianity requires. Would you put a child in control of a nuclear power plant? No. Would you put an infant in control of the Hoover Dam? No. We are ready for responsibilities as we grow older. When we are maturing, and ready for things, we know what we will need to do. When we are ready.
The real problem is not being stated. Those things that Satan offers for your enjoyment. Name them. What are those habits ? To many “ Christians “ no longer are being directed to the scriptures which clearly list them and no longer being taught the principles that help us to discern when a thing is a “ sin for us individually “.
What is your doctrine? what must I do to be saved? What are the most important scriptures for salvation? Did the Apostles and writers of the NT have the same authority as Christ when writing "canon"? Is the entire NT to be the authority we need to know we are saved or just a few? Teaching the entire Bible is true Christianity. We would have never known anything about God if He hadn't made Himself known. Should we accept commentary from anyone that doesn't teach exactly what the Bible teaches? Is anything in the Bible up for one's own interpretation or have the original documents been translated properly? We have faith in the Bible, why? If we believe one part of the Bible but not another part does that interfere with our salvation? What parts of the Bible should we not necessarily obey? If Christ told us to do something, does that mean it becomes a commandment that we must follow? If we don't follow it, does it mean we are sinning? Can we lose our salvation because we don't obey something that was said by someone else that wrote part of the NT? Like Paul? Like Peter? We are in big trouble if we take someone's word for something in the Bible we don't understand and just assume they are right. I believed many false teachers in my walk these past 38 years. The more I studied the more I understood that most churches that claim to be following the Bible are indeed teaching false doctrines of men! If someone was taught false teachings and teach others those same false teachings, then who's fault is it? Satan? no. We are responsible for what we do. John Calvin began teaching false doctrine 500 years ago. Today his false doctrine permeates 98% of all "Christian denominations". The Bible is true, but most people don't read or study the Bible, they just talk about it and add to it and take away from it. James 3:1 My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. It's good to share our thoughts and encourage others with our amazing gift that God has enlightened us with. Knowing the truth about the entire Bible is not easy and should never be taken lightly. God Bless you, my friend.
If you imagine you walked around the corner and came face to face with Jesus, if you get a fright you're not ready to be raptured. Make sure you can meet Him at any moment without anything standing between you and Him. If you do have stuff you'd rather hide, show it to Him now and ask for His help to change. And keep it open with Him even if you go do it. That way, He can work on you. Hide it, and you're without His help.
If "Christians" understood what that fence really is it would disappear. There isn't a fence, there are 2 gates/doors, one is so wide that it looks like a fence and everyone can see it, the other is so narrow it can't be seen through the eyes of this world, but both are seen through the heart and mind of the one looking. If a person is truly a Christian this applies to them; Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
1 Samuel 16:7 which states, "But the Lord said to Samuel, 'Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.'".
Your point is good, but keep in mind that you will have sins you struggle with until the day you go into the grave. While we do not impenitently live in sin, our best obedience before God will still be stained with our wickedness. Jesus told us in the Lord's Prayer to say "Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us," meaning we'll need to pray this regularly in our lives.
Great story. Now can I suggest one that I notice several Christians do, They claim Catholics are not Christian They claim Catholicism teaches to worship Mary and the saints. Claim Catholics teach you can earn your salvation Claim Constantine created the Catholic Church Claim Saint Patric killed thousands I have had some claim Catholics started the civil war Unfortunately guys when did it become ok to lie about your fellow Christian’s brothers.
@ Historic proof would be great/ you will rather hold on to man made traditions. Then to follow God. When was the last Christian persecution in America in the 20th century?
The analogy doesn't quite work for this reason. We come into material existence to experience what separation from the Divine is like. It's an experential thing, God experiencing itself through tiny sparks thrown out. "Satan" is a complex subject and carries a lot of religious superstitious baggage. Evil is a necessary byproduct of a loving God allowing his creation free will. It's up to us what we wish, or don't wish to experience, but it's all a lesson to develop our souls.
Satan owns the fence - well put. I have prayed for you, brother. Here is some scripture. John 3:14-21 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
We are saved by grace through faith and that NOT of ourselves it is the gift of God NOT of works lest any man should boast. If you've trusted in Christs death for your sin and His resurrection unto justification for eternal life, you are saved. Period. God's grace is so far beyond our comprehension but Hes shown us enough to know that even if you live on the fence, you still belong to Him and Him only. You have died to the Law, alive in Christ, you died with Him and been raised with Him Perfected, made righteous, justified and have peace with God now. I saying that, God hates sin always L, you should not sin, you should by the spirit kill the deeds of the flesh, you should walk in the Spirit, you should do work for Him, but if you don't, you are still saved, unprofitable, but saved because salvation is based on His work not ours. If you sow to your flesh you will reap corruption and walk in condemnation but you are still seated on Heavely places with Him... You've just forgotten who He has made you, if you ever studied who you are in Him in the first place. Learning who you are (in Paul's epistles) is the only way you will walk in the Spirit. If you're in the Gospels, you're walking in the flesh. Trust alone in Jesus for eternal life today.
@@Trentjfrancis I'll be looking forward to seeing your next video about this subject. This is the first that I've heard of you and this is a good one. I'm going to look for a few of your videos to see if you teach false doctrines or not. I'm hoping you got it right.
Do you believe in your heart of hearts that Jesus died, was buried and rose again in order to pay the price for your sins and remove Gods wrath from you? If you do, then you are saved. I have noticed that for me personally, that doubt can creep in to my mind if I do not read the bible, go to church and pray. The more I do these things, the more assured I FEEL, but I also know that my salvation is not based on my feelings, it is based on what Christ did for me and if I believe that or not. I do absolutely believe that Christ died to pay the price for my sins. So I know that no matter how I feel, I am saved. I am relying on HIM for my salvation, not me.
Definitely get off the fence, yes, you said nothing wrong. I'd also like to add this, though: the choice isn't really between the Lord and the devil. The choice is really between serving the Lord or wealth. Matthew 6:24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth." Definitely make up your mind to follow the Lord - "get off the fence" is a fine saying, I meet a few like that, yes. I meet far more however who are caught up serving wealth and coveting riches who claim to be a Christian.
Salvation is simple. All one has to do is believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and they will be saved. All one has to believe is that Jesus Christ is the eternally existing Son of God, God come in the flesh, who died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. It doesn’t matter what you do or don’t do, as long as you’ve believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, you’re saved and nothing can separate you from him.
The core problem is believing that God and Satan are actual beings. They are reflections of facets of the human soul; *your* soul - handing off the job of judging and creating morality to fictional external forces is not the path to enlightenment. It is up to you and you alone to hone your life into a memory you can be proud of.
Thank you for this great post of TRUTH, i can not do the sinful things and expect to be HOLY, as GOD Has Said, "Be you HOLY As I AM HOLY". Fence sitters, JESUS Is unwantingly forced to say "For I never knew you". We can not change the LAWS OF THE HOLY, SOVEREIGN, RIGHTEOUS GOD to suit our whims,,,please Loves, we do this to ourselves and send our very souls, our childrens' souls, those we mislead souls to ETERNAL suffering.

‘The Sofrim (‘scribal’ heads of the synagogues) sit on the throne of Moshe- so whatever they instruct you to do out of Torah, perform it all to the very jot and tittle of each ordinance-only do not act the way they do-for the Sofrim lay cumbersome burdens onto the shoulders or the sons of Yisro’el but they themselves do not even lift a single finger to obey any of their own precepts ! For unless your own strict Torah-obedience exceeds that of the Sofrim by your own actions, you will never be able to enter into the kingdom of my father [David] for is it not written in the very Torah itself that ‘you shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, a nation of holiness ?’ [see Exod. 19:6] ‘For he who obeys Torah down to the very jot and tittle of every single ordinance shall be called ‘The Greatest’ in the Kingdom - but he who flouts the Law in the midst of the congregation of holiness shall be called ‘The Smallest’ when the Kingdom appears…’ -R. Yehoshua bar Yosef, the Galilean Nazir, c. 13/12 BCE to 36 CE (aka ‘Jeeezuss’)
Our sin is not our solution and it's not going to save us, so stop focusing on that. Focus on the One who already solved all the puzzles, and became our Solution and Salvation. He is absolutely more than sufficient to meet all of our needs, if we'll just let Him be, but we have to let Him be. It's up to us.
Preach it, brother! The word needs to get out there, especially this time of year. Always glad to find others who have awakened and stepped away from Babylonian practices and traditions. May Yahuah our Alahym bless you in all things.
@@robertschmidt9296 And that's because Christianity wasn't built on the faith of the Hebrews. Most don't realize the significance of Yahuah's Feast Days. His Festivals aren't so much about the physical traditions but the spiritual meaning behind them. It's sad how many don't realize just how pagan and wicked the holidays truly are. Also, just something I believe is worth sharing, in regards to our Creator's name, and Hebrew in general: There are no vowel points in (True) Hebrew, unlike modern "Hebrew," which is just a slightly modified version of Babylonian Aramaic (courtesy of the Masoretes), NOT the language of the Hebrews. This means that there is no E, F, I, J, O, V, or W in Hebrew, which means, when you're looking at the tetragrammaton ("𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄" in Paleo Hebrew, read right to left) the characters are (reading left to right) "Yud Hay Uau Hay," which would be "YHUH" (left to right). While the Old English "V" was used in the transliteration of the tetragrammaton (in place of a "U") it was when the "V" phonetically functioned the same as the Modern English "U." The "W" can't accurately serve as a function in transliterations of Hebrew because Hebrew doesn't have a "W" equivalent. As for the pronunciation of "YHUH," two A's are added in for the necessary English pronunciation, which gives you the more phonetic spelling "YaHUaH," or simply "Yahuah." By all means, do your own studies. It's always the best way to learn.
@@AlisonCanty-u2w "Remember to sanctify the feasts". Christmans: we celebrate the birth of Christ. I couldn't care less if your calendary says He was born on 6 of Januray or 8 of August, the 25 of December will be the day i will remember the birth of our Lord, and be happy. He who was adn is considered the new and true "Sol Invictus", Jesus Christ! Easter: that's a you problem. Because we in Italy call it "Pasqua" which comes from a Jew word. It's the day that Jesus celebrated together with his disciples His last supper... do you think it's pagan!? Halloween: ok with you. It's not only pagan, but almost satanic... Valentine's day: it goes to christianize a pagan feast. And we celebrate a martyr, who's the patron of people in love... and it's not really a "holiday" it's more like some special day.
Do not force yourself on Jesus. Do not call yourself to Jesus. You must be called by God first. John 6:44. Once called, it's impossible to consider Sunday, the Lord's day. Holy, is a foreign language to Sunday Christianity, not called, for holy is a foreign language.
I Praise God that now i can pray easily to God. I ask you kindly to pray for me to be baptised in the Holy Spirit I still have some things of the World even if i don't want and don't engage in since few months or weeks for some (video games anime porn)
Yes, I do pray for you! I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and it does come with repentance. There is no perfect formula but you must fully surrender to God and be willing to follow His ways and repent, it is a process but you must seek and pursue.
I'm not sure I understand your story metaphor for a normality in christians. Do you mean that they're confused and don't know which side to choose or that satan already has them? Or that they unknowingly chose satan? You lost me

What I see a lot of (and I am guilty of this as well, but I recognize it and am working to correct it) is that I see people professing to follow God and Christ, and yet the turn to something that they know they are not supposed to be doing. And time and again, I hear the excuse of "I've been baptized. I believe in the forgiveness of Jesus and God. I'll be okay in the end." It doesn't work like that. Being baptized and accepting Christ and the Word of God's love and forgiveness is not a blanket license to go out and do whatever in opposition. It is not a permit to continue to sleep around, bar hop, or whatever vice you've partaken of in the past. Being baptized is supposed to bind you to God, and give you pause to stop and ask "Do I need to be doing this? Should I be doing that?" And I get it...we're all human. We make mistakes and bad choices. We succumb to Satan's temptation, sometimes quicker and easier than we should. I have even heard some biblical scholars and priests, and more than a few rabbis say that being baptized paints a big, day glow yellow target on us that Satan doubles down on and works that much harder to tempt us. Been there, done that. Especially when this messed up world we're in causes psychological trauma that skews everything around us, and makes it harder to decide what to do. And sometimes, the learning curve is steep. Sometimes, God places that steep curve in front of us to give us something to work against and overcome. Sometimes, God allows Satan to place those temptations in front of us as He did with Job. And I like to think that when we make it to the top of that curve, we'll be the better person for it. I'm still working on my curve, but I am making progress.
@@blissseeker4719 It may or may not be worth watching but it’s a turn off when Christians try to game the algorithm with the same tricks as the world uses.
Gentiles are obligated to fulfill the Seven Noahide Commandments because they are the eternal command of God, transmitted through Moses our teacher in the Torah.
No, no one is obligated to keep any laws. The church (gentiles and jews) are not obligated to keep the law either because we have been freed from the law. As CHRISTIANS, we follow JESUS and the BIBLE, not your man made 'noahide laws' which are not even in the Bible! This is the next level of Judaizing, don't fall for it people! I know what is coming, I see that this will be used to persecute true Christians for our loyalty to Jesus. And do NOT go to the 3rd temple with an animal sacrifice, the old system is obsolete, now the CHURCH is the temple of God, and no other.
@@robertschmidt9296 Prohibitions of (1) idolatry, (2) blasphemy, (3) homicide, (4) forbidden relations, (5) robbery, (6) eating meat that was taken from a still-living animal (cruelty to animals), and the requirement (7) for societies to establish courts of justice.
The old testament was to the Jews, and in addition is the old covenant. Jesus also stated that he came for the Jews, not the gentiles. (Before the new covenant anyway). Not to mention the whole bible is FOR us but the whole bible is not TO us. We are now under a new covenant.

"The fence is mine." That smacked me brother.
Glad it reasons with you like it does me brother! 🙏

Me too, you can't sit on the fence with God.

Practicing Christianity is the hardest thing in the world. Goes against human nature, but it's what must be done to belong in God's Kingdom. It's a never-ending battle, but it does get easier, and nothing else compares to a relationship with God thru Jesus's love and guidance.
Amen to your insight. Made my day.
Practicing Christianity, our actions, is not what it takes to BELONG to Gods kingdom. Belief is what it takes to belong to Gods kingdom. John 3:16 "...whosoever BELIEVES in him shall not perish but have everlasting life." Once a person believes they are in the kingdom. Our actions have to do with our sanctification, not our justification.
@@seanh70 But Jesus clearly says that TRUE belief is following Christ and his teachings. You can't say you believe, and then keep living like the world. Look at Luke 6:46-49. Remember, all the demons, and Satan himself, believes Jesus is the Messiah. It's important what they do with that knowledge. Read Acts 2: 37-38 ... to be saved, we must be baptized. And don't get confused about "works" ... being baptized isn't a "work", it's a gift.
@ You’re wrong. Baptism is absolutely a work. You can either be saved BY GRACE or BY WORKS, but NEVER by both. Grace is either a gift or it’s not. Christs sacrifice either worked or it didn’t.
And the demons you refer to in James 2:19 refers to an intellectual belief or recognition of the truth, but it is not the kind of faith that results in salvation. The original Greek word is πιστεύω (pisteuó). The demons' belief, although it causes them to tremble, does not lead them to salvation because it lacks the transformative qualities of true saving faith.
The implication is in James 2:19: Here, pisteuó refers to the demons’ INTELLECTUAL acknowledgment of the truth about God and Christ. They believe in the existence of God, the holiness of Jesus, and His authority. However, this belief does not save them because it lacks the trust and relational aspect of true saving faith.

The Word tells us that “even the devils believe and tremble.” That belief leads us to “Repent, be baptized every one of you , in the NAME of Jesus Christ and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost(Spirit). For this promise is unto You and to your children and All that are afar off. As many as the Lord our God shall call.” Acts 2:38. The Lord showed me WE MUST be baptized IN HIS NAME. The name has power, the titles are not. For Christ is the Father, He is the Son, and He is the Holy Ghost. For in HIM, Christ, dwells ALL the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Jesus bless you

Thank you for posting this. I needed to hear it. I have my struggles like all of us have. I have always been that guy on the fence.

Well said brother. Keep pressing on in Christ Jesus.
If I am driving on a narrow road high on a mountain side, I am going to hug the side of the mountain to be safe. I'm not going to see how well I can ride the edge of the road overlooking the cliff edge. Don't play games with Satan. He cheats, and will ensnare you. He knows your weaknesses better than you. God loves you, but love is not license to go back and forth from him to the Devils' playground.
Amen, we should let GOD’s love and grace to empower us to cling to Him, to avoid sin. Jesus saves us from sin, not to sin. What GOD has for us is so much better than sin. Love y’all

Great Sermon. Thank you. Bless you !
Thank you for this. I’ve been convicted and that’s good.
Great work, 1000% percent correct.
John 10:28
“And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.”
When we are Christ’s, he has us. That doesn’t mean we should sin. Sin is like a disease or a hard drug… when we partake, we bring suffering on ourselves, and sometimes upon others. We have to remember to keep taking our ‘prescription’… which is Christ.
Do not understand why so many RUclipsrs record inside vehicles….it makes no sense
Great reminder for our walk with the Lord. We need to reach out to the Lord when tempted. Jeremiah 32:27--"I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for me?"
Very good description! Salvation is thru Christ's death for our sins. Our job after that is to surrender to Him.
What’s fascinating to me is that Christianity teaches that it essentially “up to you” to “make a decision for Christ” and thereby save yourself…becoming your own savior by having made the wise choice to believe…aaaand then maintain said salvation by maintaining “good” behavior etc…this throws God’s sovereignty out the window along with Christ’s “finished work”. What one ends up with then is what we see; Self righteous “believers” ever focussing on their own behavior. Truth is we “sin” all day every day, not knowingly mind you, but we are to consider ourselves as having been crucified with Christ, though our flesh is still present and antagonizing the Spirit daily. However, Christ is the One who overcame sin and death once for all and shares with us His victory that we walk in NEWNESS according to the Spirit and not according to the old way of micro-managing the flesh or following arbitrary rules and regulations…because “It is God who works in us to will and to work according to His good pleasure.” So just relax, do all the good that God has placed before you, knowing victory is assured because of God’s unfailing Love towards all, shown to mankind by Jesus the Christ.❤
Wonderfully said.
I asked Christ to be my savior 55 years ago at age 20 after serving in Vietnam. God's way is always the best way. Read the Bible daily. Talk to God and let Him talk to you. If your not failing miserably then you don't appreciate God's standards. The good news is He loves us the way we are. Ask Him for help. If your in Christ it ends well for you.
New to your channel very much enjoying your content.thank you so much
Thanks for subbing! 🙏
That’s a good explanation, thank you brother!
Beautiful! What boggles my mind is this. There will be many arguing doctrine about 'keeping the law' in a legalistic way, or pushing 'eternal security' and a license to sin, all of which are wrong. But once we see and know what God/Jesus went through to save us, why is the answer of some "how far can I play in the enemies territory and still be okay?" "What is the bare minimum I have to do to be saved?" etc. It is heartbreaking. Our response should be out of LOVE for Him; "What is the MOST I can do for you? How can I honor, obey, serve, bring glory to you, surrender to your will? I want to strive for the highest calling, not the least!" Where are these people? In that there is no fear. It should be the sincere response of His true bride. Imagine you as a man went through torture to rescue the bride you were after. You succeeded and after an embrace, her first thought is "how little can I do to love and honor him and still be accepted in return?" If he knew this thought, would it not be a knife in his heart? The Lord does know all our thoughts and our heart.
Beautifully and well stated👍 God bless you✝️
If Christianity knew the gospel, his return would be almost immediately.
God is not about salvation, the obsession of the vast majority of professing Christianity.
God, is about after salvation, the kingdom of God, the gospel.
Thy kingdom come.
He is the truth, the truth said the gospel is:
Mk. 1:14-15, simple.
Mt. 24:14, gospel, and end.
LOOKY HERE!
1Cor. 15:24-24, simple gospel fulfilled kingdom delivered up the end of Mt 24:14.
STOP CALLING THE LENGTHY COMPLICATED NEED FOR A SAVIOR ROCKET SCIENCE, THE GOSPEL.
Jesus is the salvation sent to us to bring the world of humankind back into harmony with God and his promises for the universe and the world in which we live. It all about him and his original purposes. We are not the center of his purposes but a part of the whole picture.
@@chomama1628 ok.
@chomama1628 Why did you mention the whole picture?
That's why I said God is not about salvation.
HE IS ABOUT AFTER SALVATION.
AFTER SALVATION, the kingdom of God, the gospel preached by Jesus the savior. You are not to idolize Jesus, you are to
Mt. 6:33. It's ALL ABOUT GOD, Jesus says so.
Your salvation is as easy as getting out of bed, your place in the kingdom of God (Gospel)
is a matter of how much you love GOD in obedience.
Christianity OR NOT, salvation is easy, according to Jesus, so please read the gospel as many times as necessary to see it's about you forgetting your Lord's prayer. Thy kingdom come gospel. You 6:33, you get Jesus automatically, easy salvation.
Good Word. Thanks for sharing!
We will never regret going 100% for God/Jesus Christ. Once we understand, surrendering to his will and be coming the potters clay , No matter what takes place we know that God is with us. And that he works all things out for good purpose.
That was very cool mate. Thanks for the advise. Have a Merry Christmas and a Safe and Happy New Year. God Bless.

I don’t need things so much is something to do. My health is terrible since I got saved but it was going down before that. I’ve been trying to make a programming career happen for 14 years and I wouldn’t say I’m obsessed with that I just want something as a profession that I enjoy. But I am so in knots that I can’t even function for fear that anything I do is idolatry. I’m afraid to like anything at this point. I’ve prayed and prayed and prayed and I don’t know what the answer is.
@@Learnerofthings I think the problem is when you love something more than God/bow down and worship that. People have become do legalistic like they make it seem like God doesn’t want you to enjoy things. Jesus was a carpenter. He spent many hours in carpentry, but we know it’s wasn’t an idol. Just because you enjoy something or spend a lot of time doing something doesn’t make it an idol. God knows your heart. And the very fact that you are asking yourself this question and your stomach is in knots shows that the Holy Spirit is in your heart. And it hasn’t become an idol for you. Keep that in mind and hope this helps.
If you've really prayed and prayed and prayed for this answer to the question of liking things... what if I could give you an answer for it?
If you read the scriptures. Look up a story called Lehi's dream. Then read and think about it. In that story, the desires of Babylon are; riches, wealth, idolatry, immorality, fine things to look above others, popularity, seeking power.
Outside of Babylon, people tend to look for the fruit of the love of God, and rewards from heaven.
Now some will say we need things to live. That's true. But outside of Babylon, we tend to look at worldly possessions more like what kind of tools do you need to live. And to live simply. And you can breakdown the needs of your family down into; food, shelter, fuel, clothes, and sometimes tools and transportation can be other variables that some need. Sure you need tools but they don't have to be riches of the world. And by not seeking for riches, you end up more free.
But the point is... the world and what it seeks are different from what the mindset is for people who want to be a disciple. Disciples still need things and tools to live and materials. But they don't worship those materials, and don't put the materials and possessions as their reason for being. The view outside of Babylon also looks at things more like, what do you need to be self sufficient. Self sufficiency is good. People in BABYLON will never have enough, and covet wealth so much that they put themselves into captivity also. CAPTIVITY loses freedom.
People in Babylon look at stuff like that's their reason for being, and lusts of the flesh, to the point of becoming like beasts. So its interesting that you read in the last days it will be beast nations that cause a lot of destruction.
Remember God is for you, He desires good, godly things for you life. He knows your heart and I believe if you think of it this way: I like my work, but I love my God - you will be just fine.
[Col 3:23 NKJV] 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men,
You have God-given abilities and talents. When you put them to use in good honest work, you honor Him.
God bless ✝️
It sounds to me that you're on the right path because you're crucifying your flesh by doubting or questioning what you're doing in light of respect towards Jesus Christ.
That is most definitely the Holy Spirit within
God bless

Totally agree Kim!
Brethren our battle with sin is NOT fence sitting. We are to battle it but we will have failings we are set to fail and will fail - doesn't seem fair but God will NOT have you provide perfection of your own. You are NOT to shine brighter than your King. Christs perfection is YOUR perfection. You are to be perfected only in His work and in Him and not of your own. So when you fall return to the throne of grace - 1000 times 1000 - times a day.
Correct. However, I think that in this video, he is describing that kind of person that says he loves God but then does not make a real effort to change his life. These are the kind of people that call the Lord but they didn't create a personal relationship with Him, so they may risk condemnation.
What you are describing, instead, is a Christian who tries to fight sin with all his force every day and, well, fails, like every human being. Do not fear if you are someone like you are describing but trust God in His power to change your heart :)
A perfect example of Arminian theology.
Another thing I hear is “I’m not ready to decide yet”. But by not deciding to give your life to Jesus Christ , you are making a decision to not give your life to Jesus Christ ! Think about that ! I can’t seem to get people to understand that . I don’t mean to sound judgey but I do hope to get that message across to anyone who will hear it ! We only have one life , one chance to get this right ! Matthew 7:13 , 14 . The gospel of the gates . One wide and one narrow , and few shall pass through it .
Good message, thx
Full complete faith in Jesus.
Very particular situation
The rampant paranoia around "works" has led a lot of folks to have the same relationship with God as the demons: they know true things but simply tremble in fear and do not obey the commands of God. Or at least cry out to God for help in obeying His commands. Or reach out to others to establish accountability and support. And so on.
They remain stagnant, waiting for God to make a move, as if that's who is still holding the ball at this stage of the redemptive story.
It is both simple and difficult. Simply follow Christ and show his love. That's simple. But the difficulty is our own sinful nature and willfulness.
Jesus paid it ALL. Past , present and future.

That's a great analogy! I have found, however, that in the U.S. at least, The Devil's greatest victory has not been in tempting people with "sins of the flesh", or with "New Age" silliness, or "wokeness", but has been in his ability to get professing Christians to hate their neighbors, and to malign and demonize Christ's Least of These, in particular the poor, the homeless, and the migrant. Christ tells us that for those who ignore or mistreat them, their reward will be "eternal punishment" (Matthew 25:32-46). But really, hating any of our neighbors, as many do for xenophobic reasons, goes directly against what Christ called the Greatest Commandment (on which all "the law" and the prophets hang). Then, of course, there is the issue of Christians who find nothing wrong in admiring the rich, or for that matter in dreaming of being rich themselves, despite the fact that not only does Christ instruct us specifically NOT to "store up treasures on Earth" (hoard wealth), but had THIS to say about the rich....."Woe to you who are rich, for you already have your reward" (Luke 6:24), and "It is easier for a camel to travel through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24). Of course, Christ does not say it is IMPOSSIBLE for the rich to go to Heaven, but He makes it pretty clear that it is EXTREMELY unlikely that they will.
Illegal Aliens are not migrants
U don’t steal becuz ur hungry or cold - u ASK
Asking in the USA means applying to immigrate
Sneaking in and then using our (decreasingly small) taxpayer wealth to feed n house u is breaking & entering and theft
And that’s NOT xenophobia but reality
I don't think it's mentioned as often as it should but, the struggle with realizing what your walk was before you realize where your heart truly laid. Your mind and mouth professing Christ as Lord and Savior and your heart is no where near.
And then of course the struggle that comes with bringing your heart nearer. The venom that is bitterness and resentment being met with kindheartedness and forgiveness, the very thing that should be in your heart in the stead of said venom. It's hard.
But, thank you, I greatly appreciated seeing this video.

I have a concerning question. I wonder if a saved person can 100 percent overcome each and every bad habit that they have, such as drinking, smoking, overeating, listening to secular programs, etc. Can a Christian soldier claim to be saved even though he has to eliminate others as a job?
No one ever has to eliminate others for a job
And yes all those things can be overcome
Keep up the good work, May Jesus richly bless you!
Well said!
I have a question if you don’t mind: I know that GOD is good and just and that He must punish sin, and I’ve read that GOD loved the world by sending His Son Jesus to save us, and I believe this. I’ve also read that love covers a multitude of sins. But I’ve recently heard some teachings that have begun to change my perspective. These teachings say that GOD hates sinners and that it’s wrong to tell people that GOD loves them. I mean, I understand GOD’s wrath against sin, but in His love GOD provided His Son Jesus as our Savior, since we’ve all been sinners. Yes, we need to return to GOD in repentance, turning away from sin, and we need to believe in Jesus to be saved. But we also see John 3:16, 1 John and Romans 5:8, and if believers are supposed to be Jesus’ disciples, to become more and more like Him, that would mean that we are to hate sinners, but we have the instruction to love one another as He loved us, and to even love our enemies, so I’m really confused. Does GOD ‘s love for me change too? Not trying to be arrogant, I’m just confused. Also, as a young man trying to witness throughout his high school, I frequently told people about the love of Jesus as well as their need for repentance, for many people seem somewhat responsive to hearing about His love, but now I feel uneasy sharing GOD’s love due to teachings that GOD hates sin and the sinner. I don’t want to lie, so is it wrong for me to tell people that Jesus loves them? I understand that we can find forgiveness in repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, but who does GOD love? Is it that GOD opposes sinners and their sinfulness or that He actually hates them? Who does GOD love, and can I tell my fellow high schoolers that the Lord Jesus loves them? I also have been going through a season of spiritual warfare, Jesus has been carrying me through. Please pray for me.
@@Soldier-n5k good question, so Sin separates up from God. But God doesn’t “hate the sinner” I mean scripture “while we were sinners Christ died for us. That doesn’t sound like a hateful act to me. It’s ok to tell people who are in sin that God loves them because he does. I mean he healed sinners. He sat with them. Ate with them. I mean ask yourself how the thief on the cross would fit into that theology. Because he was a man who didn’t have a relationship or nothing he was up there for his crimes and Jesus told him. You’ll be with me in paradise. Hope that makes sense. Good question! Keep telling people Jesus loves them because he does.
@@Trentjfrancis thank you, GOD bless you
I hope this come across correctly. I don't believe God has ever hated us but hates the sins we do cause it separates us from his love. He has always wanted the best for us and will even try and make our lives better even without us asking him for it.
It's like when your child draws on the wall with a sharpie or paint, we may get mad at the actions he does and may scold him for doing so but at the end of the day he is still our child and we love him.
Never feel scared to preach and show the love the Father and the Son has for us, it's only in the fear of spreading the good word that the enemy gets power and you should not grant it that power over you. Preach and share the good news of Jesus' love for us.
@@zarektheinsane6656 thanks, GOD bless you
God doesnt love sinners. It is nowhere in the Bible. God loveD the world so much that He even send his son Jesus so that whosoever believes in Him, may be saved. Thats a whole other thing. You can tell you fellow students that God has send Jesus and God loves us to obey His commandments. Then they will be granted eternal life with Him! Well, thats how I understand it..
Awesome video, thanks for sharing.
😊 this is true man so dang true.
God does not want us to suffer, or be bored, or have no sense of purpose. If we have things we love to do, write harmless stories, play harmless love songs, or music, dance, paint or draw pictures-- harmless things, it is wrong to pretend God doesn't approve. God is who gives us gifts and talents.
I see it as if Christianity is preached to children, and over time, we grow and understand more about what Christianity requires. Would you put a child in control of a nuclear power plant? No. Would you put an infant in control of the Hoover Dam? No. We are ready for responsibilities as we grow older. When we are maturing, and ready for things, we know what we will need to do. When we are ready.
This reminds me of Job 41 where God talks about the Leviathan, and how people imagine they can control it. No, playing with evil only leads to evil.
Sheesh. Wonderfully said. 🙏
@@Trentjfrancis Thank you.
The real problem is not being stated. Those things that Satan offers for your enjoyment. Name them. What are those habits ? To many “ Christians “ no longer are being directed to the scriptures which clearly list them and no longer being taught the principles that help us to discern when a thing is a “ sin for us individually “.
What is your doctrine? what must I do to be saved? What are the most important scriptures for salvation? Did the Apostles and writers of the NT have the same authority as Christ when writing "canon"? Is the entire NT to be the authority we need to know we are saved or just a few? Teaching the entire Bible is true Christianity. We would have never known anything about God if He hadn't made Himself known. Should we accept commentary from anyone that doesn't teach exactly what the Bible teaches? Is anything in the Bible up for one's own interpretation or have the original documents been translated properly? We have faith in the Bible, why? If we believe one part of the Bible but not another part does that interfere with our salvation? What parts of the Bible should we not necessarily obey? If Christ told us to do something, does that mean it becomes a commandment that we must follow? If we don't follow it, does it mean we are sinning? Can we lose our salvation because we don't obey something that was said by someone else that wrote part of the NT? Like Paul? Like Peter? We are in big trouble if we take someone's word for something in the Bible we don't understand and just assume they are right. I believed many false teachers in my walk these past 38 years. The more I studied the more I understood that most churches that claim to be following the Bible are indeed teaching false doctrines of men! If someone was taught false teachings and teach others those same false teachings, then who's fault is it? Satan? no. We are responsible for what we do. John Calvin began teaching false doctrine 500 years ago. Today his false doctrine permeates 98% of all "Christian denominations". The Bible is true, but most people don't read or study the Bible, they just talk about it and add to it and take away from it. James 3:1 My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. It's good to share our thoughts and encourage others with our amazing gift that God has enlightened us with. Knowing the truth about the entire Bible is not easy and should never be taken lightly. God Bless you, my friend.
If you imagine you walked around the corner and came face to face with Jesus, if you get a fright you're not ready to be raptured. Make sure you can meet Him at any moment without anything standing between you and Him. If you do have stuff you'd rather hide, show it to Him now and ask for His help to change. And keep it open with Him even if you go do it. That way, He can work on you. Hide it, and you're without His help.
He’s spitting straight facts

If "Christians" understood what that fence really is it would disappear. There isn't a fence, there are 2 gates/doors, one is so wide that it looks like a fence and everyone can see it, the other is so narrow it can't be seen through the eyes of this world, but both are seen through the heart and mind of the one looking.
If a person is truly a Christian this applies to them; Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me.
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
1 Corinthians 11:14
“Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?”
1 Samuel 16:7 which states, "But the Lord said to Samuel, 'Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.'".
Your point is good, but keep in mind that you will have sins you struggle with until the day you go into the grave. While we do not impenitently live in sin, our best obedience before God will still be stained with our wickedness. Jesus told us in the Lord's Prayer to say "Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us," meaning we'll need to pray this regularly in our lives.
that fence is tresspassing.
Great story. Now can I suggest one that I notice several Christians do,
They claim Catholics are not Christian
They claim Catholicism teaches to worship Mary and the saints.
Claim Catholics teach you can earn your salvation
Claim Constantine created the Catholic Church
Claim Saint Patric killed thousands
I have had some claim Catholics started the civil war
Unfortunately guys when did it become ok to lie about your fellow Christian’s brothers.
Not lies
But u go on believing ur maligned…
@ Historic proof would be great/ you will rather hold on to man made traditions. Then to follow God.
When was the last Christian persecution in America in the 20th century?
The analogy doesn't quite work for this reason. We come into material existence to experience what separation from the Divine is like. It's an experential thing, God experiencing itself through tiny sparks thrown out. "Satan" is a complex subject and carries a lot of religious superstitious baggage. Evil is a necessary byproduct of a loving God allowing his creation free will. It's up to us what we wish, or don't wish to experience, but it's all a lesson to develop our souls.
Believing in a globe....is what needs to stop in Christianity.
Satan owns the fence - well put. I have prayed for you, brother. Here is some scripture.
John 3:14-21
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Amen
And yet, a large number of Evangelicals CHOSE Trump OVER Jesus
We are saved by grace through faith and that NOT of ourselves it is the gift of God NOT of works lest any man should boast.
If you've trusted in Christs death for your sin and His resurrection unto justification for eternal life, you are saved. Period.
God's grace is so far beyond our comprehension but Hes shown us enough to know that even if you live on the fence, you still belong to Him and Him only. You have died to the Law, alive in Christ, you died with Him and been raised with Him
Perfected, made righteous, justified and have peace with God now.
I saying that, God hates sin always L, you should not sin, you should by the spirit kill the deeds of the flesh, you should walk in the Spirit, you should do work for Him, but if you don't, you are still saved, unprofitable, but saved because salvation is based on His work not ours.
If you sow to your flesh you will reap corruption and walk in condemnation but you are still seated on Heavely places with Him... You've just forgotten who He has made you, if you ever studied who you are in Him in the first place. Learning who you are (in Paul's epistles) is the only way you will walk in the Spirit. If you're in the Gospels, you're walking in the flesh. Trust alone in Jesus for eternal life today.
What if I'm not sure I'm saved?
I’ll be sure to do my next video on this.
@@Trentjfrancis I'll be looking forward to seeing your next video about this subject. This is the first that I've heard of you and this is a good one. I'm going to look for a few of your videos to see if you teach false doctrines or not. I'm hoping you got it right.
Do you believe in your heart of hearts that Jesus died, was buried and rose again in order to pay the price for your sins and remove Gods wrath from you? If you do, then you are saved. I have noticed that for me personally, that doubt can creep in to my mind if I do not read the bible, go to church and pray. The more I do these things, the more assured I FEEL, but I also know that my salvation is not based on my feelings, it is based on what Christ did for me and if I believe that or not. I do absolutely believe that Christ died to pay the price for my sins. So I know that no matter how I feel, I am saved. I am relying on HIM for my salvation, not me.
Definitely get off the fence, yes, you said nothing wrong. I'd also like to add this, though: the choice isn't really between the Lord and the devil. The choice is really between serving the Lord or wealth.
Matthew 6:24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth."
Definitely make up your mind to follow the Lord - "get off the fence" is a fine saying, I meet a few like that, yes.
I meet far more however who are caught up serving wealth and coveting riches who claim to be a Christian.
I have an addiction to eating toilet paper
Is it because your words are full of crap? 😂
Lol
Salvation is simple. All one has to do is believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and they will be saved. All one has to believe is that Jesus Christ is the eternally existing Son of God, God come in the flesh, who died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. It doesn’t matter what you do or don’t do, as long as you’ve believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, you’re saved and nothing can separate you from him.
The core problem is believing that God and Satan are actual beings. They are reflections of facets of the human soul; *your* soul - handing off the job of judging and creating morality to fictional external forces is not the path to enlightenment. It is up to you and you alone to hone your life into a memory you can be proud of.
So wrong

Do you think watching SpongeBob is a sin?
That depends on what spongebob is doing, saying, and promoting.

‘The Sofrim (‘scribal’ heads of the synagogues) sit on the throne of Moshe- so whatever they instruct you to do out of Torah, perform it all to the very jot and tittle of each ordinance-only do not act the way they do-for the Sofrim lay cumbersome burdens onto the shoulders or the sons of Yisro’el but they themselves do not even lift a single finger to obey any of their own precepts ! For unless your own strict Torah-obedience exceeds that of the Sofrim by your own actions, you will never be able to enter into the kingdom of my father [David] for is it not written in the very Torah itself that ‘you shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, a nation of holiness ?’ [see Exod. 19:6]
‘For he who obeys Torah down to the very jot and tittle of every single ordinance shall be called ‘The Greatest’ in the Kingdom - but he who flouts the Law in the midst of the congregation of holiness shall be called ‘The Smallest’ when the Kingdom appears…’
-R. Yehoshua bar Yosef, the Galilean Nazir, c. 13/12 BCE to 36 CE (aka ‘Jeeezuss’)
Our sin is not our solution and it's not going to save us, so stop focusing on that. Focus on the One who already solved all the puzzles, and became our Solution and Salvation. He is absolutely more than sufficient to meet all of our needs, if we'll just let Him be, but we have to let Him be. It's up to us.
People celebrate holidays even they are not of God, that is 1 thing we need to stop, STOP CELEBRATING PAGAN HOLIDAYS
Preach it, brother! The word needs to get out there, especially this time of year. Always glad to find others who have awakened and stepped away from Babylonian practices and traditions. May Yahuah our Alahym bless you in all things.
Yes! Christmas, Easter, Halloween and Valentine’s Day. People need to do research on how these got started. They are rooted in paganism.
Yahweh has seven of them that He commands us to keep but most Christians ignore them.
@@robertschmidt9296 And that's because Christianity wasn't built on the faith of the Hebrews. Most don't realize the significance of Yahuah's Feast Days. His Festivals aren't so much about the physical traditions but the spiritual meaning behind them. It's sad how many don't realize just how pagan and wicked the holidays truly are.
Also, just something I believe is worth sharing, in regards to our Creator's name, and Hebrew in general: There are no vowel points in (True) Hebrew, unlike modern "Hebrew," which is just a slightly modified version of Babylonian Aramaic (courtesy of the Masoretes), NOT the language of the Hebrews. This means that there is no E, F, I, J, O, V, or W in Hebrew, which means, when you're looking at the tetragrammaton ("𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄" in Paleo Hebrew, read right to left) the characters are (reading left to right) "Yud Hay Uau Hay," which would be "YHUH" (left to right). While the Old English "V" was used in the transliteration of the tetragrammaton (in place of a "U") it was when the "V" phonetically functioned the same as the Modern English "U." The "W" can't accurately serve as a function in transliterations of Hebrew because Hebrew doesn't have a "W" equivalent. As for the pronunciation of "YHUH," two A's are added in for the necessary English pronunciation, which gives you the more phonetic spelling "YaHUaH," or simply "Yahuah." By all means, do your own studies. It's always the best way to learn.
@@AlisonCanty-u2w "Remember to sanctify the feasts".
Christmans: we celebrate the birth of Christ. I couldn't care less if your calendary says He was born on 6 of Januray or 8 of August, the 25 of December will be the day i will remember the birth of our Lord, and be happy. He who was adn is considered the new and true "Sol Invictus", Jesus Christ!
Easter: that's a you problem. Because we in Italy call it "Pasqua" which comes from a Jew word. It's the day that Jesus celebrated together with his disciples His last supper... do you think it's pagan!?
Halloween: ok with you. It's not only pagan, but almost satanic...
Valentine's day: it goes to christianize a pagan feast. And we celebrate a martyr, who's the patron of people in love... and it's not really a "holiday" it's more like some special day.
Do not force yourself on Jesus. Do not call yourself to Jesus. You must be called by God first.
John 6:44.
Once called, it's impossible to consider Sunday, the Lord's day.
Holy, is a foreign language to Sunday Christianity, not called, for holy is a foreign language.
You know the video is going to be fake deep nonsense when they make the video in their car😂
You should define God and satan for better understanding of this proposition.
I Praise God that now i can pray easily to God. I ask you kindly to pray for me to be baptised in the Holy Spirit
I still have some things of the World even if i don't want and don't engage in since few months or weeks for some (video games anime porn)
Yes, I do pray for you! I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and it does come with repentance. There is no perfect formula but you must fully surrender to God and be willing to follow His ways and repent, it is a process but you must seek and pursue.
@ wow praise God
Yeah that’s good
I'm not sure I understand your story metaphor for a normality in christians. Do you mean that they're confused and don't know which side to choose or that satan already has them? Or that they unknowingly chose satan? You lost me
If you don’t choose Jesus. By default you have chosen satan.

What I see a lot of (and I am guilty of this as well, but I recognize it and am working to correct it) is that I see people professing to follow God and Christ, and yet the turn to something that they know they are not supposed to be doing. And time and again, I hear the excuse of "I've been baptized. I believe in the forgiveness of Jesus and God. I'll be okay in the end." It doesn't work like that. Being baptized and accepting Christ and the Word of God's love and forgiveness is not a blanket license to go out and do whatever in opposition. It is not a permit to continue to sleep around, bar hop, or whatever vice you've partaken of in the past. Being baptized is supposed to bind you to God, and give you pause to stop and ask "Do I need to be doing this? Should I be doing that?" And I get it...we're all human. We make mistakes and bad choices. We succumb to Satan's temptation, sometimes quicker and easier than we should. I have even heard some biblical scholars and priests, and more than a few rabbis say that being baptized paints a big, day glow yellow target on us that Satan doubles down on and works that much harder to tempt us. Been there, done that. Especially when this messed up world we're in causes psychological trauma that skews everything around us, and makes it harder to decide what to do. And sometimes, the learning curve is steep. Sometimes, God places that steep curve in front of us to give us something to work against and overcome. Sometimes, God allows Satan to place those temptations in front of us as He did with Job. And I like to think that when we make it to the top of that curve, we'll be the better person for it. I'm still working on my curve, but I am making progress.

Gentiles are obligated to fulfill the Seven Noahide Commandments because they are the eternal command of God, transmitted through Moses our teacher in the Torah.
No, no one is obligated to keep any laws. The church (gentiles and jews) are not obligated to keep the law either because we have been freed from the law. As CHRISTIANS, we follow JESUS and the BIBLE, not your man made 'noahide laws' which are not even in the Bible! This is the next level of Judaizing, don't fall for it people! I know what is coming, I see that this will be used to persecute true Christians for our loyalty to Jesus. And do NOT go to the 3rd temple with an animal sacrifice, the old system is obsolete, now the CHURCH is the temple of God, and no other.
What are the seven Noahide commandments?
@@robertschmidt9296 Prohibitions of (1) idolatry, (2) blasphemy, (3) homicide, (4) forbidden relations, (5) robbery, (6) eating meat that was taken from a still-living animal (cruelty to animals), and the requirement (7) for societies to establish courts of justice.
I don't think so
The old testament was to the Jews, and in addition is the old covenant. Jesus also stated that he came for the Jews, not the gentiles. (Before the new covenant anyway). Not to mention the whole bible is FOR us but the whole bible is not TO us. We are now under a new covenant.
