Praise God for this lesson and how he is using Frances Chan to stretch our faith and bring us back to God's Word and God's heart. His lessons, and his God-honoring books and life, consistently make me want to grow in my faith, love and boldness. Thank you, Frances. God bless your move, your family, and your ministry.
Stephanie Annor don’t listen to him ^ Jesus said if you save your own life you WILL lose it .. He said to deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Him.. to live is Christ 💙 but also .. to die is gain 🤷🏾♂️🙏🏾
Your beliefs or your calling should not determine your life's value. Your life has intrinsic value, and so does the life of someone who has a different belief or calling than you.

Chic Outomi you really need to get a life. Sitting here critiquing a man who has done more for spreading Jesus and the gospel than you probably have ever done. Instead you sit here and knit pick. Go and tell someone about Jesus instead
I m catholic but I ve been following F Chan talks for a few years now. He is profoundly interesting. What he said about the healings reminded me of St. Francis Xavier. Where he went to in Asia healings abounded. As the first missionary so many villages wanted healing that he sent children to them and the healings got multiplied through children. I ve come to believe healing is the authentic mark of a true believer. Unity is our terrible obstacle. St. Johns gospel. Days our glory is dependent on our unity. The sick have been the victims of so much divisive theology. But today we live in such a Nazareth hardened culture I think even the Lord would have problems healing. F Chan is showing many people what’s important. It’s also interesting the Pope also Francis speaks often of the Church as a field hospital for the sick. For 33 yrs now this problem has occupied me. I believe Jesus wants us to heal in His name. The world expects it of us. We must expect it of us. It would utterly transform everything.
The only thing I would add is this HUMBLE. why I said that because where sinful and distraction will come in disguise and it will break my heart to hear a faithful Man of God traded God's Healing for worldly reason. I'm just tired of hearing and seeing so call man of god taking advantage on people who really needs healing and that man of god is making a living of that. I hear you I would add Humbling as you approach that request and responsibilities. Amen to you and for wanting that for the needed one's.🙏
@A Believer I agree completely but it is impossible and unwise to think we can live a "pure faith" minus tradition. What J Pelikan said is important - " Tradition is the living faith of the dead; traditionalism is the dead faith of the living." Aware of this distinction let us study & be guided by the bible and live Jesus' words in the gospels. God will do the rest.
"Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. Matthew 5:11-12 ESV
True follower of Christ has a discernment of what is true and judge rightly. Brothers and sisters dont be so quick to judge just because of the heresy but to attest every spirit. Beware of our words toward a brother.
Cesar Are you born again? Do you know that the ‘Bible is a spiritual Book for spiritual people’? Usually those who are not born again, and who are ignorant of God’s Word, are the ones who are captivated by this crazy messenger of Satan, Francis Chan.
This was a fabulous message of thirst and dying for Christ. Idk Francis Chan but Ido know God is able to use him as a vessel his kingdom just like he did Saul ! As for us.. where is proof of our love for souls? Of glad surrender that we might know Christ and the power of his resurrection? Regardless what Mr. Chan may have said ,done or believed in the past, God is able to see far beyond man, forgive deeper than any man.He is the Potter! This was a powerful message concerning his desire for Christ to be all and in us all. Let God smooth out the crooked places. Your job is to pray for such a one. Not condemn him as Satan. Jas 4:12 KJV There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another? As for me, I will pray God be glorified in Mr. Chan's walk and the souls that hear and obey the unadulterated gospel of grace, rejoice forevermore. ❤️🙏
John 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. (Praying for you brother Chan)
Moody, thank you for bringing Francis Chan in to speak at founders week. Thank you for bringing in a man that sets a wonderful example of what it looks like to fearlessly live out our faith. Thank you bringing in a man who is doer of word as James says, and not a hearer only.
Prayers for you Chan ... SO incredibly blessed to hear this message. Such a deep sense of awe of God using you this way - and your family. GLORY TO GOD!!! May this mission be BLESSED 10000000 fold!
Truly, truly prophetic.Amen, Pastor Chan. May the Lord work through you and your family mightily. Thank you for being a worker of the harvest. May I go and be likewise.
I can’t believe some of these comments. Is Chan not preaching the Gospel here!? C’mon. The thing that pushes me hardest toward agnosticism is “Christians” that do not desire unity, don’t instruct lovingly, and claim that it’s not the Gospel when Jesus is clearly proclaimed as Lord. Beautiful and challenging message.
Couldn't agree more. The infighting within Christianity grieves my heart. This is what happens in a culture where intellect and knowledge is praised and esteemed above spiritual experience and true discipleship. It can be overwhelming at times and I have to stay intimate with God to make sure that my love doesn't grow cold. I pray daily for His heart to pour into mine. It's a challenge though! 💛
Jesus Christ and Paul and many others were very critical of false teachers - maybe you need to read your Bible more. Jesus said he did not come to bring peace but a sword. I do agree with Pastor Chan that none of us really know the word until we DO THE WORD - that is the truth and something I know I have been guilty of not doing and that is not OK.
Unity around what? Chan is on the road to Roman Catholicism, the Roman Church has murdered and persecuted true Christians for the last 1,000+ years. Also they teach a false Gospel. There will be no unity with Rome, the Pope is an Antichrist, i pray that you will see that. Unity is found in the true Gospel of Christ and sound Biblical doctrine not fanciful stories about how you healed a bunch of people in some third world country where funny nobody caught it on their smart phone. Why doesn't Chan go down to the children's hospital and empty it out? Oh, wait because he can't heal anyone, he like Benny Hinn (who is has been hanging around with) is a religious Con-Men.
Please don’t let bad Christians turn you away from the goodness of Christ. Although, I understand why it has and continues to. As far as the rest of you... “All the ways of a man are clean and innocent in his own eyes [and he may see nothing wrong with his actions], But the LORD weighs and examines the motives and intents [of the heart and knows the truth].” Proverbs 16:2 AMP
@Porter Maxwell really? don't you know that there are thousands of influential pastors converted to the catholic church? you know why? they found the truth that the catholic church founded by Christ.
I love how real and honest Francis is about Christianity. Nothing against the prosperity gospel but acting as a “good steward” certainly says a lot more. Thank you Mr. Chan, best of luck in Asia ❤️🙌🏽
I also admire Francis Chan for his authentic love for the Lord and his passionate conviction to share the gospel and I totally agree with you that "acting as a good steward says a lot more" but would also add that there's no need to soft serve the truth about the prosperity gospel, it's misleading and harmful to most people that truly desire to follow after Jesus and it should be called out and rebuked for it not being biblical and in line with what scripture teaches. God bless you in your walk with the Lord my sister in Christ!
Michael S. Thanks! I agree with you. I admire your strong stance about Christianity. I try to be gentle about it because I’m my early walk with Christ, prosperity teaching helped me with personal adversities. However as I grew in my walk, I realized it wasn’t truly biblical. But for that person who hasn’t found god as of yet or needs help with their faith, you may have to start somewhere even if it’s a bit off track because if you push through honestly , my faith has it that you will find yourself on the narrow path. (At least I hope) but that’s why i watch teachers such as himself, Vernon Ashe, and Paul washer who could be more firm than myself. Thanks my brother in the lord !!
What a powerful message!!!! I love the sincerity. Thank you for expressing your journey with Christ, so many won’t allow God to lead them into a greater light because they are stuck in doctrines and traditions. This message puts a fire in my soul. It refreshes a deep longing in my soul, to lose my life for Christ.

Francis has the ability to share the Gospel in truth and boldness to Asia!! Let's all pray, and pray he goes to speak in Japan as well...huge volcano...no Gospel...by God's grace many more ppl will hear him in Asia than has in America!!
I love this so much!!!!! I’m just saddened by the critics in the comments sections. People forget that the AUTHOR is greater then the book itself. When God doesn’t fit into our little box, we assume it’s false. He is “Way Maker, Miracle Worker, Promise Keeper, Light in the Darkness.”
I agree. But I found it humorous that in response to the critics, you used as your proof text a line from a Bethel song, haha. Probably not the best 'proof-text' for the crowd your talking to, haha ;)
@@lynwattam In fact, the song Way Maker is written by a Nigerian Gospel Singer by the name of Sinach. It was also sung that night at Moody Church when Francis preached. Many of these critics are listening to the wrong spirits; the same spirits that have been striving to split the church since the beginning.
God bless you, Pastor in all the ways you take according to His will. I wish I could translate this video into Polish so many people in my country could be touched by its powerful message.
Great talk, he is sincere and humble. Bit shocked by the criticisms in these comments. Can’t see how any Christian could be upset by this presentation.
How is he humble? He says at the beginning he is afraid he will say things to bring glory to himself, then later he tells a story where he does exactly that claiming he had the power to heal a village full of people. You do realize he has been hanging around with Benny Hinn and Todd White right? Be careful of the man who is the hero of all his own stories.
Maybe my English is not good. I didn't hear him saying he had the power to heal the sicks. What I heard is he had fear in mind, but he knew Jesus was with him, he expected Jesus healed and Jesus did. I believe he was well aware of Jesus heals not Francis heals.
I am so saddened by Christian's responses to each other these days. It breaks my heart. It is no wonder people are leaving the church left and right. Those leaving aren't right to do so but with these kinds of divisions, it is discouraging to say you are a part of it.
@@doctrinalwatchdog6268 God can use Apostle Paul, Brother Francis Chan & Any Genuine Christian to bring Healing to anyone. That is what the Bible says!

Just can't help but to wonder the way he's sniffling and wiping his nose if he's dealing with Corona virus already considering he's been traveling to Myanmar etc recently but obviously he's not concerned about dying for Christ so I pray the Lord's will be done and that he would be with Francis Chan as he carries out the Great Commission. 👑💖⛪🙏☝️

Great message! I left challenged and with a heart of repentance Surprised by the negative comments calling him a false teacher/ prophet what ever .. is he preaching a different gospel did I miss something is he preaching something other than Christ ? Looking at previous videos and from reading some of his books they all point to Christ alone 🤔 Anyways praying for you Pastor Chan and your move

Chic Outomi Yes I am!! And you can be born again as well the Bible says in Ephesians 2:8 that by grace we are saved through faith! By having faith in Christ alone we are immediately saved! That’s great news !!! Repent and turn away from your sins! Put your faith in the finish work of Jesus Christ! I’ll keep you lifted in prayer!! ♥️
Lydia Brown I am born again. But you haven’t understood my comment. “Usually those who...are ignorant of God’s Word, are the ones who are captivated by this crazy heretic, Francis Chan, who is veering towards notorious Roman Catholicism.”
Allan Hutton reformationcharlotte.org/2019/02/24/francis-chan-why-you-should-avoid-him/ The point is: Francis Chan is a heretic, an apostate, and more dangerous than the deceitful charismatics and catholics he hobnobs with. I am not a Calvinist and it is sad that John MacArthur’s Masters University didn’t identify this dangerous heretic before he graduated from there.
Michael Boucher Feeding 5,000 people with five barley loaves and two fish is nothing compared to what Jesus has done the past 2,000 years: taking His one sacrificed flesh and poured out blood and feed the faithful throughout the world and and throughout out time bringing His work on Calvary to the present.
@@michaelboucher4544, John 6:26 _"Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled."_ Some of them were only interested in another free meal.
The Gospel is not about performing miracles or healings. It is about for God's glory He tore apart and bled out the body of the Son to appease the wrath that we deserved in order to reconcile mankind with God. That is the entire Gospel. It is not about avoiding pain and suffering and poverty.
DefenderoftheCross I agree that the gospel is not solely about miracles and healings, but it plays a huge part of it. Jesus was constantly performing miracles and healings along with preaching the gospel of the kingdom. His disciples did the same, as the name disciple suggests. It is written that if we believe we would do even greater things. We are disciples of Jesus and people are still demon possessed, people are still bound by darkness. We are called to walk as Jesus walked. How can we do that without the full power of the Holy Spirit?
@Khey Gambe. He spoke about a couple healings in Asia this past week that he saw for a deaf brother and sister. This the first miracle he's witnessed in 52 years of being alive. He also spoke about us losing our lives and finding it with Jesus. That's why he's moving to Asia. He feels God calling him there and wants to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to those people. God bless you
@@christiankozjak4105 Thank you very much for sharing! I admire Ps. Francis Chan for his seemingly radical moves as he follows Jesus. After all, Jesus is also a radical mover, defying what the society thinks. God bless you too
@@jeremytaylor2870 Wow. Who knew we could split hairs. So, someone healed of incurable cancer is a "healing" and someone whose tooth, damaged by decay, is restored, THAT is a miracle!
@@wheat3226 1Co_12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. why does scripture then differentiate between the two? my point, however, is that God is sovereign in all he does it all! we are merely vessels
@@jeremytaylor2870 The problem with quoting scriptures that are vague is that no one agrees on what it means. Thus we do not have unity. You can't answer my question about the difference between the two and dodged the point that none of the healings were amputees. The best you can say, is what you said, God is sovereign so what does it matter? For many, that is enough. Not for me.

"God can actually take away the knowledge you think you have.." says Francis Chan referring to Luke 8. But Luke 8:12 says, "the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts.." Someone please help!!
Francis is actually referring to verse 18 of Luke 8. If you read that portion in context and read it's parallel in Matthew 13:10-12, I think it's quite clear that the devil is NOT the one taking away. Francis is right on that one!
@@rhemaakinola44 Can you teach me why? I read the Matthew verses as well (sounds like election?). I know the devil's characteristic as a thief is noted in John 10:10 and other places. I also know the parables where the minna and talents are taken away. This one is hard.
Here’s what I think (for what it’s worth). I agree with Chan that Jesus is saying that it is God who takes away in this passage. That is judgment. Where I disagree with Chan is that he seems to turn this very contextual 1st century teaching of Jesus into a timeless, context-less aphorism. I tend to shy away from that. A lot of what Jesus says isn’t ‘timeless, context-less aphorism’ - a lot of what Jesus says really only makes sense in his 1st century, pre-70 AD, Judean-Galilean prophetic ministry that he was engaged in. I think Luke 8:18 fits that description. Essentially, I think Jesus is speaking prophetically to the covenant people Israel before the judgment of the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 (which Jesus referred to and warned about many times). Jesus has been announcing the arrival of the kingdom through the parables in Luke 8 and elsewhere. The Old Testament promised that a remnant (and not all) from Israel will experience the new covenant salvation their God had promised them. It seems that Jesus saw his parables as a means of the true Israel-remnant emerging into the new covenant salvation and the kingdom he was offering. For those 1st century Jews who heard with ears, they began to be drawn into the kingdom (and became the remnant who would receive the promises). Those who didn’t hear with ears missed the kingdom, and essentially would lose their standing as covenant people (culminating in the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD). These are those who “think they have” but then what they have “will be taken away.” In short, it could be phrased like this: “Take care then how you (covenant Israel) hear, for to the one who has (the Jew who HAS an understanding of the parable), more will be given (aka: the kingdom will be given them, because by their understanding, they show they are the remnant who will receive the covenant promises)). And from the one who has not (the Jewish leaders in particular, but unbelieving Jews generally, who did not understand or accept Jesus’ parables or kingdom announcement), even what he thinks he has will be taken away (the Jewish leaders will find their covenant status that they think they have taken from them entirely, as seen in the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD…at Jesus’ time, they do genuinely ‘have’ something in terms of covenant status and kingdom-ownership, but in their rejection of Jesus, Israel’s God will take that position away - judgment).
John 3:10-12 New International Version (NIV) 10 “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and do you not understand these things? 11 Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. 12 I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? 1 Corinthians 4:20 20 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power. 2 Timothy 3:5 New International Version (NIV) 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Chan preached while he was a student at The Master's College. And the message was basically the same kind of message we hear him preach again and again today. He talked about how he went to downtown LA and bought lunch for a homeless guy and how that's what we should all be doing. It was clear Chan was gifted and had a lot to offer as a preacher. TMC (TMU now) can be a very insular place. The same is true with the church. However, I notice that his messages are consistently about feeling "uncomfortable". He pumps up this message of being uncomfortable so much that it becomes an idol. But here there is very little actual teaching from the Bible. I mourn for this because I know the education which has been poured into him. Advertising healings is no substitute for Bible teaching. Additionally, he knows better than partnering with prosperity gospel faith healers. But since it's *uncomfortable* he portrays it as a good thing. He knows better than partnering with Catholics. But it's *uncomfortable* and, since few conservative evangelicals are doing it, that makes it right. The truth is, without sincere, dedicated Christians who have been discipled and taught by faithful teachers who avoid the prosperity gospel and won't partner with Catholics...without those people, Chan has no audience. He is constantly representing himself as one of these people; but pushing them to do things that make them uncomfortable, rather than just living out your faith consistently, day in, day out. I'm so repulsed by this theme of his, because *becoming uncomfortable* has become an idol to him and many others who listen to him. It's not about how you feel. Sometimes following Christ makes you do things that are uncomfortable; sometimes you do things to follow Christ that are extremely fulfilling and comfortable because you have God's law written on your heart and obedience satisfies that longing of our heart. Regardless, what matters is whether you are faithful to Jesus, keeping his word, and obeying his teaching. It's time for us to give up on the emotional rollercoasters and serve Christ daily.
@@stephenjohnson9632 Catholics deny the sole redemptive and mediatorial work of Christ (Hebrews 4:14-16). They preach a gospel whereby personal salvific merit is accrued through sacraments rather than faith in Christ (Ephesians 2:8-10). They preach a false gospel. Galatians 1 says to reject someone who does that.
David Robinson Catholics believe Christ instituted the sacraments, so when the receive the sacraments, they do so in faith in Christ. Catholics also believe Jesus is the sole mediator between God and Man.
@@stephenjohnson9632 Nope. You guys add to Jesus' complete work with Mary as co-redemptrix and mediatrix. That is why you don't believe the plain teaching of Scripture and, to bring things full-circle, why we can't partner with you in ministry.
David Robinson So, since we believe Mary cooperated with God’s plan of salvation and that Mary, as do all of us, play an intercessorial role in order to help in the process of reconciling sinners tho God through Christ, you will not work with us to spread the Good News, stand with us as we advocate for the dignity of the unborn, and as we encourage sinners to repent and receive Christ’s forgiveness and mercy? You won’t work with us to feed the poor and protect widows and orphans around the world? Are you sure that Jesus would want you to reject those who love and serve Jesus just because we understand Him and how He interacts with us and heals and saves us differently? Is that scriptural?
Francis had already teaching in Cantonese. He picks it up pretty quick. Here is the link of the teaching. ruclips.net/video/NgPMETb9vBU/видео.html He also connects with local church and delivered a powerful message couple hours ago. facebook.com/jubileehk/videos/234181684512609/
This actually sounds biblical here’s why: I don’t think miracles can’t happen anymore because when we read the scriptures .. no oneeeeeeee in those countries in AD 33 and so on knew nothing. Jesus literally just resurrected, they believed in Greek Gods and other pagan God’s so they performed miracles by God. Same when Jesus said He did them so they’d believe. With that being said, he was in a country where that would have to happen for them to believe, because if we dive in- Christianity isn’t blind faith. AT ALL! I believe. Now if he was lying does that change my faith .. no. It would just mean he’s a liar. I come in peace family.
I heard today that Francis Chan said he didn't realize that for the first 1500 years of Christianity, Christians believed the Holy Eucharist to actually be the body, and blood of Jesus. It was an invention of only 500 years ago that someone thought it was only a"symbol".
Holy Spiritual Practices people like to point to Constantine about stuff he had nothing to do with. Read the church fathers. Do a close study of The Eucharist in the bible and baptism for that matter. Start with John 6 for the Eucharist. If it is just merely a symbol why did Jesus let many of his disciples leave when they took him literally. Wouldn’t he have called them back o r corrected their misunderstanding? Paul says some of the people in Corinth were sick and even died due to irreverence of the body and blood of Christ. Would a mere symbol have any such effect? When the disciples broke bread with Jesus on the road to Emmaus, their eyes were opened to Jesus. Mere symbol? Paul says is it not a participation in the body and blood of Christ? Look closer. Take up and read! Take up and read!
But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 Peter 2:1
CHRIST was asked the question on how to pray and the answer HE gave was pray to your FATHER in heaven, but many Christians refuse and instead pray to CHRIST who told them to pray to THE FATHER. Why cant people pray to who CHRIST said to pray to. Luke 6:46. And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Given the scope of issues in our country, world, and evangelicalism, I could leave Francis Chan alone, but if you are interested in thinking carefully about these issues, and since Chan is the highest best-selling author who is or was a pastor besides perhaps Rick Warren and Joel Osteen, and I keep hearing his story-telling at events like Azusa Pacific Chapel in November, and now in January at the Send Conference in Brazil, Moody Founders' Week, and the Alpha Conference, about his claims of being used to heal people in Myanmar and therefore he is moving to Hong Kong, I will say that I wish he would either (a) move to Myanmar and learn the language and culture there and minister with the Christians and missionaries already there, or (b) move to Hong Kong and minister there with the churches and missionaries there. I worry about his speaking and writing drawing on his personal experiences. Ten years I reported on him quitting his megachurch to go into obscurity. www.christianitytoday.com/.../mayweb.../28-41.0.html Here is a selection from a response from a missionary in Myanmar, Breanna Randall: "When I moved to Myanmar, I wanted very badly to start something cool, like a community health ministry, write some teaching materials, or help plant a church . . . My husband, Jim, who has now lived here for nearly 14 years." She compares what Chan said to Myanmar pastors as compared to what Chan is saying about Myanmar in the US. faithfullymagazine.com/myanmar-francis-chan.../ And here is her later tweet thread about the miracles: threadreaderapp.com/.../1228246195409018882.html... "Easy steps to performing your first healing: 1) go to a place where you don't speak the language. 2) make sure that the only people who come to you for healing have an invisible disability. 3) make sure you have a translator who has prepped the community for your visit ... Chan's initiative here is partnered with YWAM and Antioch church. They have a five year plan for flooding Myanmar with their brand of good news. I have yet to hear anything about it that sounds healthy or even well-thought out. They're apparently coming to work with the Myanmar church, but get this: their latest official meeting was held in English, with NO translators present. A Burmese-speaking friend was invited to attend and couldn't understand anything because the meeting was not held in Burmese. Another friend shook her head after attending the same meeting, saying, 'what happens is that the only Myanmar church people who will end up getting involved with this project are the ones who speak English.'"
If you are going to make claims of supernatural healing please share the medical records complete with doctors' names and contact information. If true, praise God. If false, repent. My faith is in God, not your claims.
Darren Lawrence that’s easy to Matthew 10:8 Says Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.
"non essential areas "... @42:43 claims you have to warn people then shun them if they don't accept cult teachings of ecumenicals in another video he makes a yeah great on behalf of "GOD " ...for resisting he the fraud and speaking up AS Crust SAID o do ...
There's a really good reason why Christians say "oh, he didn't really mean that" about the bible. Because they're protecting themselves from the fact that it's simply not true. I'm speaking from first hand experience as someone who was HEAVILY involved in faith healing. I used to be convinced it was real. It's not real people. Don't believe it.
Joey be careful how you hear.. You miss God in this message! You must eat what is true if you want to be alive and busying about the Father's kingdom ❤️
@@rhondaellerbe3463 There are many things I failed to consider when I was involved in faith healing that I now consider to be abuse disguised as love. Faith healers who pray for people who are sick and dying and do not recover is NOT loving. Taking advantage of sick people in a very vulnerable state giving them false hope is lowest of the low. And even if it were real, God has to be begged and pleaded to for people to get healed? And even that's not a guarantee, because it only "works" some of the times? That is disgusting. Tbh, I'm not surprised Francis got into faith healing. His "crazy love" makes him vulnerable to religious extremism. I can relate, because I was in a similar place and used to say the same kinda things that he did in this video.
He is constantly expelling what needs to get out , we are all call to be saint in order to be worthy to go to heaven , nothing unclean can go to heaven , it is here on earth that we have to clean ourselves from sin and wow it’s an non stop discipline that we easily fall like Peter , but we have a loving Lord that awaits for our conversion , May We listen to Mary when he tell us us do as he ask you to do like I. The wedding of Canna , Thank you Ma Mary for saying yes , FIAT!!!🍃🕊🍃🌏🕊🍃🌍🙏🕊🍃🕊🌎🙏🌏❤️
Francis should stop selling this 'do more works' stuff. Let people be filled with the Holy Spirit and let them hear from the Lord. Kneeling and praying in agony as though God is unaware of our real or fake emotions is ridiculous.
1Co 1:2 KJV Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:.
Sounds similar to NAR and sign seeking, feelings focused and self esteeming, a bit ecumenical. Jesus COULD do miracles anywhere anytime, but chose not to because he is all knowing. We are not. We aren’t going to be greater than Him.
Greg This was a fabulous message of thirst and dying for Christ. Idk Francis Chan but I Do know God is able to use him as a vessel his kingdom just like he did Saul! As for us.. where is proof of our love for souls? Of glad surrender that we might know Christ and the power of his resurrection? Regardless what Me. Chan may have said ,done or believed in the past, God is able to see far beyond man, forgive deeper than any man. He is the Potter! This was a powerful message concerning his desire for Christ to be all and in us all. Let God smooth out the crooked places. Your job is to pray for such a one. Not condemn him as Satan. Jas 4:12 KJV There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another? As for me, I will pray God be glorified in Me. Chan's walk and the souls that hear and obey the unadulterated gospel of grace, rejoice forevermore.
Rhonda, I never condemned Chan "as Satan". And you're not judging my judging, are you? That would be very hypocritical. After all, your job is to pray for me, not call out what you see as wrong, right?
I'm so dissappointed with brother Chan. He's teaching false history in regard to Catholicism, he's become a rogue idealist in my estimate. It really hurts my soul.
Don’t be distracted by doctrines and debates . As long as he his preaching the gospel of Jesus and people are getting saved that’s all that matters, God still get the glory and His kingdom grows. Don’t let the devil distract you and others with doctrines and debates it’s all to veer people to the side and sway from the main focus .
Jacob Maier Acts 16:31, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” This is what matters. Everything else comes after. Even Paul and Barnabas had disputes in scripture that separated them . It’s the devils tactic to bring division instead of unity in the church, and one of the ways is by all these different winds of doctrines .
Scott you should be careful speaking about your brother in Christ and God’s child in the manner you are. You make judgments that has eternal significance rather than with an open heart listening to what Francis is saying and matching it up with the Word of God point by point.
Praise God for this lesson and how he is using Frances Chan to stretch our faith and bring us back to God's Word and God's heart. His lessons, and his God-honoring books and life, consistently make me want to grow in my faith, love and boldness. Thank you, Frances. God bless your move, your family, and your ministry.
Jeff Chacon well said. I feel the same. And am praying in accord with you for him, his ministry and his family for God’s glory!
My life is nothing unless I’m doing the work I’m called to do. Thank you for this reminder.
Stephanie Annor amen!
No, Stephanie. Your life is precious no matter what, and so is the life of a Muslim, a Buddhist, or an atheist. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Stephanie Annor don’t listen to him ^ Jesus said if you save your own life you WILL lose it .. He said to deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Him.. to live is Christ 💙 but also .. to die is gain 🤷🏾♂️🙏🏾
Your beliefs or your calling should not determine your life's value. Your life has intrinsic value, and so does the life of someone who has a different belief or calling than you.
@@Joe99 souls are precious.
Eze 33:11 KJV Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
My heart is on ,🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Everyone let us promise to lose our lives to find it in Christ. Let's go!

Chic Outomi you really need to get a life. Sitting here critiquing a man who has done more for spreading Jesus and the gospel than you probably have ever done. Instead you sit here and knit pick. Go and tell someone about Jesus instead
I m catholic but I ve been following F Chan talks for a few years now. He is profoundly interesting. What he said about the healings reminded me of St. Francis Xavier. Where he went to in Asia healings abounded. As the first missionary so many villages wanted healing that he sent children to them and the healings got multiplied through children.
I ve come to believe healing is the authentic mark of a true believer. Unity is our terrible obstacle. St. Johns gospel. Days our glory is dependent on our unity. The sick have been the victims of so much divisive theology.
But today we live in such a Nazareth hardened culture I think even the Lord would have problems healing. F Chan is showing many people what’s important. It’s also interesting the Pope also Francis speaks often of the Church as a field hospital for the sick.
For 33 yrs now this problem has occupied me. I believe Jesus wants us to heal in His name. The world expects it of us. We must expect it of us. It would utterly transform everything.
The only thing I would add is this HUMBLE. why I said that because where sinful and distraction will come in disguise and it will break my heart to hear a faithful Man of God traded God's Healing for worldly reason. I'm just tired of hearing and seeing so call man of god taking advantage on people who really needs healing and that man of god is making a living of that. I hear you I would add Humbling as you approach that request and responsibilities. Amen to you and for wanting that for the needed one's.🙏
@@OquendoHector333 I agree completely except to add humilty, humility, humility.
@A Believer I agree completely but it is impossible and unwise to think we can live a "pure faith" minus tradition. What J Pelikan said is important - " Tradition is the living faith of the dead; traditionalism is the dead faith of the living." Aware of this distinction let us study & be guided by the bible and live Jesus' words in the gospels. God will do the rest.
"Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Matthew 5:11-12 ESV
True follower of Christ has a discernment of what is true and judge rightly. Brothers and sisters dont be so quick to judge just because of the heresy but to attest every spirit. Beware of our words toward a brother.
Beware of heresy coming from a brother.
The ESV is a false Translation , We are actually supposed to
"mark "
these false teachers , It is Chan who is saying false things .
Praise You Lord, for this message. Help us to listen and obey and walk the narrow path.
The Kingdom advances forcibly. Faith in Christ is greater than any doctrine. A beautiful testimony.
I so appreciate Chan’s reverence towards God. This is something that is missing so much in churches nowadays, instead they are noisy and confusing.
Cesar Are you born again? Do you know that the ‘Bible is a spiritual Book for spiritual people’? Usually those who are not born again, and who are ignorant of God’s Word, are the ones who are captivated by this crazy messenger of Satan, Francis Chan.
This was a fabulous message of thirst and dying for Christ. Idk Francis Chan but Ido know God is able to use him as a vessel his kingdom just like he did Saul !

John 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. (Praying for you brother Chan)
Moody, thank you for bringing Francis Chan in to speak at founders week. Thank you for bringing in a man that sets a wonderful example of what it looks like to fearlessly live out our faith. Thank you bringing in a man who is doer of word as James says, and not a hearer only.
Can you tell me, what is founders week?
Prayers for you Chan ... SO incredibly blessed to hear this message. Such a deep sense of awe of God using you this way - and your family. GLORY TO GOD!!! May this mission be BLESSED 10000000 fold!
👑💖⛪🙏☝️🔥
Truly, truly prophetic.Amen, Pastor Chan. May the Lord work through you and your family mightily. Thank you for being a worker of the harvest. May I go and be likewise.
I can’t believe some of these comments. Is Chan not preaching the Gospel here!? C’mon. The thing that pushes me hardest toward agnosticism is “Christians” that do not desire unity, don’t instruct lovingly, and claim that it’s not the Gospel when Jesus is clearly proclaimed as Lord.
Beautiful and challenging message.
Couldn't agree more. The infighting within Christianity grieves my heart.
This is what happens in a culture where intellect and knowledge is praised and esteemed above spiritual experience and true discipleship.
It can be overwhelming at times and I have to stay intimate with God to make sure that my love doesn't grow cold. I pray daily for His heart to pour into mine. It's a challenge though! 💛
Jesus Christ and Paul and many others were very critical of false teachers - maybe you need to read your Bible more. Jesus said he did not come to bring peace but a sword. I do agree with Pastor Chan that none of us really know the word until we DO THE WORD - that is the truth and something I know I have been guilty of not doing and that is not OK.
Unity around what? Chan is on the road to Roman Catholicism, the Roman Church has murdered and persecuted true Christians for the last 1,000+ years. Also they teach a false Gospel. There will be no unity with Rome, the Pope is an Antichrist, i pray that you will see that. Unity is found in the true Gospel of Christ and sound Biblical doctrine not fanciful stories about how you healed a bunch of people in some third world country where funny nobody caught it on their smart phone. Why doesn't Chan go down to the children's hospital and empty it out? Oh, wait because he can't heal anyone, he like Benny Hinn (who is has been hanging around with) is a religious Con-Men.
Please don’t let bad Christians turn you away from the goodness of Christ. Although, I understand why it has and continues to.
As far as the rest of you...
“All the ways of a man are clean and innocent in his own eyes [and he may see nothing wrong with his actions], But the LORD weighs and examines the motives and intents [of the heart and knows the truth].”
Proverbs 16:2 AMP
@Porter Maxwell really? don't you know that there are thousands of influential pastors converted to the catholic church? you know why? they found the truth that the catholic church founded by Christ.
God Bless you Francis Chan, love love this message, allowing it to challenge me.
I love how real and honest Francis is about Christianity. Nothing against the prosperity gospel but acting as a “good steward” certainly says a lot more. Thank you Mr. Chan, best of luck in Asia ❤️🙌🏽
I also admire Francis Chan for his authentic love for the Lord and his passionate conviction to share the gospel and I totally agree with you that "acting as a good steward says a lot more" but would also add that there's no need to soft serve the truth about the prosperity gospel, it's misleading and harmful to most people that truly desire to follow after Jesus and it should be called out and rebuked for it not being biblical and in line with what scripture teaches. God bless you in your walk with the Lord my sister in Christ!
Michael S. Thanks! I agree with you. I admire your strong stance about Christianity. I try to be gentle about it because I’m my early walk with Christ, prosperity teaching helped me with personal adversities. However as I grew in my walk, I realized it wasn’t truly biblical. But for that person who hasn’t found god as of yet or needs help with their faith, you may have to start somewhere even if it’s a bit off track because if you push through honestly , my faith has it that you will find yourself on the narrow path. (At least I hope) but that’s why i watch teachers such as himself, Vernon Ashe, and Paul washer who could be more firm than myself. Thanks my brother in the lord !!
This is so awesome... how I desire to grow and grow daily in my Lord
What a powerful message!!!! I love the sincerity. Thank you for expressing your journey with Christ, so many won’t allow God to lead them into a greater light because they are stuck in doctrines and traditions. This message puts a fire in my soul. It refreshes a deep longing in my soul, to lose my life for Christ.

Halleluyah! Awesome testimony!
I see lots of spiritual foodies here.. loved it and love you and your fam francis!
I love this so much!!!!! I’m just saddened by the critics in the comments sections. People forget that the AUTHOR is greater then the book itself. When God doesn’t fit into our little box, we assume it’s false. He is “Way Maker, Miracle Worker, Promise Keeper, Light in the Darkness.”
mu mung wish I could hit “like” one hundred times on this !!
Yes indeed
I agree.
But I found it humorous that in response to the critics, you used as your proof text a line from a Bethel song, haha. Probably not the best 'proof-text' for the crowd your talking to, haha ;)
@@lynwattam In fact, the song Way Maker is written by a Nigerian Gospel Singer by the name of Sinach. It was also sung that night at Moody Church when Francis preached. Many of these critics are listening to the wrong spirits; the same spirits that have been striving to split the church since the beginning.
Such a powerful session, Word, prayer, & worship together!!!
God bless you, Pastor in all the ways you take according to His will. I wish I could translate this video into Polish so many people in my country could be touched by its powerful message.
Great talk, he is sincere and humble. Bit shocked by the criticisms in these comments. Can’t see how any Christian could be upset by this presentation.
Matt T same here brother!
How is he humble? He says at the beginning he is afraid he will say things to bring glory to himself, then later he tells a story where he does exactly that claiming he had the power to heal a village full of people. You do realize he has been hanging around with Benny Hinn and Todd White right? Be careful of the man who is the hero of all his own stories.
Maybe my English is not good. I didn't hear him saying he had the power to heal the sicks. What I heard is he had fear in mind, but he knew Jesus was with him, he expected Jesus healed and Jesus did. I believe he was well aware of Jesus heals not Francis heals.
I am so saddened by Christian's responses to each other these days. It breaks my heart. It is no wonder people are leaving the church left and right. Those leaving aren't right to do so but with these kinds of divisions, it is discouraging to say you are a part of it.
@@doctrinalwatchdog6268 God can use Apostle Paul, Brother Francis Chan & Any Genuine Christian to bring Healing to anyone. That is what the Bible says!

Chic Outomi you're nuts.
It's so hard not to see true genuineness in Francis message here.... at least for me
It's great to see this man on fire for the Lord and the message he's sharing is powerful. Just can't help but to wonder the way he's sniffling and wiping his nose if he's dealing with Corona virus already considering he's been traveling to Myanmar etc recently but obviously he's not concerned about dying for Christ so I pray the Lord's will be done and that he would be with Francis Chan as he carries out the Great Commission. 👑💖⛪🙏☝️
Matthew 7:19-23
19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Anyways praying for you Pastor Chan and your move

Allan Hutton reformationcharlotte.org/2019/02/24/francis-chan-why-you-should-avoid-him/
The point is: Francis Chan is a heretic, an apostate, and more dangerous than the deceitful charismatics and catholics he hobnobs with.
I am not a Calvinist and it is sad that John MacArthur’s Masters University didn’t identify this dangerous heretic before he graduated from there.
It’s so sad that not just the world, but Christians don’t even believe this. it’s like we forgot what Jesus did
Maybe Francis should start raising the dead. Wait, here's an easier one. He should feed 5,000 people with a loaf of bread.
Michael Boucher
Feeding 5,000 people with five barley loaves and two fish is nothing compared to what Jesus has done the past 2,000 years: taking His one sacrificed flesh and poured out blood and feed the faithful throughout the world and and throughout out time bringing His work on Calvary to the present.
@@michaelboucher4544, John 6:26 _"Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled."_
Some of them were only interested in another free meal.
The Gospel is not about performing miracles or healings. It is about for God's glory He tore apart and bled out the body of the Son to appease the wrath that we deserved in order to reconcile mankind with God. That is the entire Gospel. It is not about avoiding pain and suffering and poverty.
DefenderoftheCross I agree that the gospel is not solely about miracles and healings, but it plays a huge part of it. Jesus was constantly performing miracles and healings along with preaching the gospel of the kingdom. His disciples did the same, as the name disciple suggests. It is written that if we believe we would do even greater things. We are disciples of Jesus and people are still demon possessed, people are still bound by darkness. We are called to walk as Jesus walked. How can we do that without the full power of the Holy Spirit?
Love this so much!

Can someone call Francis Chan and ask him to heal the world of the corona virus?
How do people donate to your ministry?
I wish there was a subtitle 🥺 I am deaf I can't understand the message.
@Khey Gambe. He spoke about a couple healings in Asia this past week that he saw for a deaf brother and sister. This the first miracle he's witnessed in 52 years of being alive. He also spoke about us losing our lives and finding it with Jesus. That's why he's moving to Asia. He feels God calling him there and wants to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to those people.

@@jeremytaylor2870 The problem with quoting scriptures that are vague is that no one agrees on what it means. Thus we do not have unity. You can't answer my question about the difference between the two and dodged the point that none of the healings were amputees.

Lol I tried moving things! Nothing ever did lol
"God can actually take away the knowledge you think you have.." says Francis Chan referring to Luke 8. But Luke 8:12 says, "the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts.." Someone please help!!
Francis is actually referring to verse 18 of Luke 8. If you read that portion in context and read it's parallel in Matthew 13:10-12, I think it's quite clear that the devil is NOT the one taking away. Francis is right on that one!
@@rhemaakinola44 Can you teach me why? I read the Matthew verses as well (sounds like election?). I know the devil's characteristic as a thief is noted in John 10:10 and other places. I also know the parables where the minna and talents are taken away. This one is hard.
Here’s what I think (for what it’s worth).
I agree with Chan that Jesus is saying that it is God who takes away in this passage. That is judgment.
Where I disagree with Chan is that he seems to turn this very contextual 1st century teaching of Jesus into a timeless, context-less aphorism. I tend to shy away from that. A lot of what Jesus says isn’t ‘timeless, context-less aphorism’ - a lot of what Jesus says really only makes sense in his 1st century, pre-70 AD, Judean-Galilean prophetic ministry that he was engaged in. I think Luke 8:18 fits that description.
Essentially, I think Jesus is speaking prophetically to the covenant people Israel before the judgment of the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 (which Jesus referred to and warned about many times). Jesus has been announcing the arrival of the kingdom through the parables in Luke 8 and elsewhere. The Old Testament promised that a remnant (and not all) from Israel will experience the new covenant salvation their God had promised them. It seems that Jesus saw his parables as a means of the true Israel-remnant emerging into the new covenant salvation and the kingdom he was offering. For those 1st century Jews who heard with ears, they began to be drawn into the kingdom (and became the remnant who would receive the promises). Those who didn’t hear with ears missed the kingdom, and essentially would lose their standing as covenant people (culminating in the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD). These are those who “think they have” but then what they have “will be taken away.”
In short, it could be phrased like this:
“Take care then how you (covenant Israel) hear, for to the one who has (the Jew who HAS an understanding of the parable), more will be given (aka: the kingdom will be given them, because by their understanding, they show they are the remnant who will receive the covenant promises)). And from the one who has not (the Jewish leaders in particular, but unbelieving Jews generally, who did not understand or accept Jesus’ parables or kingdom announcement), even what he thinks he has will be taken away (the Jewish leaders will find their covenant status that they think they have taken from them entirely, as seen in the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD…at Jesus’ time, they do genuinely ‘have’ something in terms of covenant status and kingdom-ownership, but in their rejection of Jesus, Israel’s God will take that position away - judgment).
Why are you even listening to his sermons if it's to criticize , the bible also says dont answers fools , God Bless You , now go away .

Chan preached while he was a student at The Master's College. And the message was basically the same kind of message we hear him preach again and again today. He talked about how he went to downtown LA and bought lunch for a homeless guy and how that's what we should all be doing. It was clear Chan was gifted and had a lot to offer as a preacher. TMC (TMU now) can be a very insular place. The same is true with the church. However, I notice that his messages are consistently about feeling "uncomfortable". He pumps up this message of being uncomfortable so much that it becomes an idol.
But here there is very little actual teaching from the Bible. I mourn for this because I know the education which has been poured into him. Advertising healings is no substitute for Bible teaching. Additionally, he knows better than partnering with prosperity gospel faith healers. But since it's *uncomfortable* he portrays it as a good thing. He knows better than partnering with Catholics. But it's *uncomfortable* and, since few conservative evangelicals are doing it, that makes it right.
The truth is, without sincere, dedicated Christians who have been discipled and taught by faithful teachers who avoid the prosperity gospel and won't partner with Catholics...without those people, Chan has no audience. He is constantly representing himself as one of these people; but pushing them to do things that make them uncomfortable, rather than just living out your faith consistently, day in, day out.
I'm so repulsed by this theme of his, because *becoming uncomfortable* has become an idol to him and many others who listen to him. It's not about how you feel. Sometimes following Christ makes you do things that are uncomfortable; sometimes you do things to follow Christ that are extremely fulfilling and comfortable because you have God's law written on your heart and obedience satisfies that longing of our heart. Regardless, what matters is whether you are faithful to Jesus, keeping his word, and obeying his teaching.
It's time for us to give up on the emotional rollercoasters and serve Christ daily.

Why is partnering with Catholics wrong?
@@stephenjohnson9632 Catholics deny the sole redemptive and mediatorial work of Christ (Hebrews 4:14-16). They preach a gospel whereby personal salvific merit is accrued through sacraments rather than faith in Christ (Ephesians 2:8-10). They preach a false gospel. Galatians 1 says to reject someone who does that.
David Robinson
Catholics believe Christ instituted the sacraments, so when the receive the sacraments, they do so in faith in Christ. Catholics also believe Jesus is the sole mediator between God and Man.
@@stephenjohnson9632 Nope. You guys add to Jesus' complete work with Mary as co-redemptrix and mediatrix. That is why you don't believe the plain teaching of Scripture and, to bring things full-circle, why we can't partner with you in ministry.
David Robinson
So, since we believe Mary cooperated with God’s plan of salvation and that Mary, as do all of us, play an intercessorial role in order to help in the process of reconciling sinners tho God through Christ, you will not work with us to spread the Good News, stand with us as we advocate for the dignity of the unborn, and as we encourage sinners to repent and receive Christ’s forgiveness and mercy? You won’t work with us to feed the poor and protect widows and orphans around the world? Are you sure that Jesus would want you to reject those who love and serve Jesus just because we understand Him and how He interacts with us and heals and saves us differently? Is that scriptural?

This actually sounds biblical here’s why: I don’t think miracles can’t happen anymore because when we read the scriptures .. no oneeeeeeee in those countries in AD 33 and so on knew nothing. Jesus literally just resurrected, they believed in Greek Gods and other pagan God’s so they performed miracles by God. Same when Jesus said He did them so they’d believe. With that being said, he was in a country where that would have to happen for them to believe, because if we dive in- Christianity isn’t blind faith. AT ALL! I believe. Now if he was lying does that change my faith .. no. It would just mean he’s a liar. I come in peace family.
I heard today that Francis Chan said he didn't realize that for the first 1500 years of Christianity, Christians believed the Holy Eucharist to actually be the body, and blood of Jesus. It was an invention of only 500 years ago that someone thought it was only a"symbol".
@Holy Spiritual Practices the holy Eucharist is biblical.
@Holy Spiritual Practices absolutely. Look up the miracle of Lanciano. Even St. Paul wrote about it
1 Corinthians 11
@Holy Spiritual Practices John 6 : 26
Stop getting divided on things that aren't deal breakers
Holy Spiritual Practices people like to point to Constantine about stuff he had nothing to do with. Read the church fathers. Do a close study of The Eucharist in the bible and baptism for that matter. Start with John 6 for the Eucharist. If it is just merely a symbol why did Jesus let many of his disciples leave when they took him literally. Wouldn’t he have called them back o r corrected their misunderstanding? Paul says some of the people in Corinth were sick and even died due to irreverence of the body and blood of Christ. Would a mere symbol have any such effect? When the disciples broke bread with Jesus on the road to Emmaus, their eyes were opened to Jesus. Mere symbol? Paul says is it not a participation in the body and blood of Christ? Look closer. Take up and read! Take up and read!
But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 Peter 2:1
Michael Boucher I guess you would prefer those children remain deaf.. sad..
If there were all kinds of healings, I'm sure there will be verification.
CHRIST was asked the question on how to pray and the answer HE gave was pray to your FATHER in heaven, but many Christians refuse and instead pray to CHRIST who told them to pray to THE FATHER. Why cant people pray to who CHRIST said to pray to.
Luke 6:46. And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Given the scope of issues in our country, world, and evangelicalism, I could leave Francis Chan alone, but if you are interested in thinking carefully about these issues, and since Chan is the highest best-selling author who is or was a pastor besides perhaps Rick Warren and Joel Osteen, and I keep hearing his story-telling at events like Azusa Pacific Chapel in November, and now in January at the Send Conference in Brazil, Moody Founders' Week, and the Alpha Conference, about his claims of being used to heal people in Myanmar and therefore he is moving to Hong Kong, I will say that I wish he would either (a) move to Myanmar and learn the language and culture there and minister with the Christians and missionaries already there, or (b) move to Hong Kong and minister there with the churches and missionaries there. I worry about his speaking and writing drawing on his personal experiences. Ten years I reported on him quitting his megachurch to go into obscurity. www.christianitytoday.com/.../mayweb.../28-41.0.html
Here is a selection from a response from a missionary in Myanmar, Breanna Randall:
"When I moved to Myanmar, I wanted very badly to start something cool, like a community health ministry, write some teaching materials, or help plant a church . . . My husband, Jim, who has now lived here for nearly 14 years." She compares what Chan said to Myanmar pastors as compared to what Chan is saying about Myanmar in the US. faithfullymagazine.com/myanmar-francis-chan.../
And here is her later tweet thread about the miracles:
threadreaderapp.com/.../1228246195409018882.html...
"Easy steps to performing your first healing:
1) go to a place where you don't speak the language.
2) make sure that the only people who come to you for healing have an invisible disability.
3) make sure you have a translator who has prepped the community for your visit ... Chan's initiative here is partnered with YWAM and Antioch church. They have a five year plan for flooding Myanmar with their brand of good news. I have yet to hear anything about it that sounds healthy or even well-thought out. They're apparently coming to work with the Myanmar church, but get this: their latest official meeting was held in English, with NO translators present. A Burmese-speaking friend was invited to attend and couldn't understand anything because the meeting was not held in Burmese. Another friend shook her head after attending the same meeting, saying, 'what happens is that the only Myanmar church people who will end up getting involved with this project are the ones who speak English.'"
Hmmm.....Not saying it can't happen - just saying I'll be approaching Chan with caution now.
Exactly. He is currently praising Todd White disciple of Kenneth Copeland and Pope Francis. Also took a selfie with Benny Hinn. #heresy
Kelli Harrah I guess you should approach Jesus with caution too then.
If you are going to make claims of supernatural healing please share the medical records complete with doctors' names and contact information.
If true, praise God.
If false, repent.
My faith is in God, not your claims.
Darren Lawrence my faith in is in God but I need proof what an oxymoron your proof Is in the word
That's easy. 2 Timothy 3:16-17. God's Word is infallible. Chan's word is not
Darren Lawrence that’s easy to Matthew 10:8
Says Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.
I’m not trying to reply with a rude manner but people who were healed in the Bible didn’t have any medical records.
@@yinmung7745 hahaha
"non essential areas "... @42:43 claims you have to warn people then shun them if they don't accept cult teachings of ecumenicals in another video he makes a yeah great on behalf of "GOD " ...for resisting he the fraud and speaking up AS Crust SAID o do ...
Francis Chan God bless you. ✝️ Come back home in real true and first Christ Church the Catholic Church Amen!🇭🇷
There's a really good reason why Christians say "oh, he didn't really mean that" about the bible. Because they're protecting themselves from the fact that it's simply not true. I'm speaking from first hand experience as someone who was HEAVILY involved in faith healing. I used to be convinced it was real. It's not real people. Don't believe it.
Joey be careful how you hear.. You miss God in this message! You must eat what is true if you want to be alive and busying about the Father's kingdom ❤️
@@rhondaellerbe3463 There are many things I failed to consider when I was involved in faith healing that I now consider to be abuse disguised as love. Faith healers who pray for people who are sick and dying and do not recover is NOT loving. Taking advantage of sick people in a very vulnerable state giving them false hope is lowest of the low. And even if it were real, God has to be begged and pleaded to for people to get healed? And even that's not a guarantee, because it only "works" some of the times? That is disgusting.
Tbh, I'm not surprised Francis got into faith healing. His "crazy love" makes him vulnerable to religious extremism. I can relate, because I was in a similar place and used to say the same kinda things that he did in this video.

Glad you walked away with something meaningful and soul saving.
Evan remember that you will be judged for every careless word you speak.
He is constantly expelling what needs to get out , we are all call to be saint in order to be worthy to go to heaven , nothing unclean can go to heaven , it is here on earth that we have to clean ourselves from sin and wow it’s an non stop discipline that we easily fall like Peter , but we have a loving Lord that awaits for our conversion , May We listen to Mary when he tell us us do as he ask you to do like I. The wedding of Canna , Thank you Ma Mary for saying yes , FIAT!!!🍃🕊🍃🌏🕊🍃🌍🙏🕊🍃🕊🌎🙏🌏❤️
Francis should stop selling this 'do more works' stuff. Let people be filled with the Holy Spirit and let them hear from the Lord. Kneeling and praying in agony as though God is unaware of our real or fake emotions is ridiculous.
Religious people amaze me , very bizarre to watch this 😄
I agree with you. He is bizarre. Have you ever heard the gospel? Here it is...ruclips.net/video/JMRbQpHY4L0/видео.html
We are witnessing the makings of a Saint

bubble guppies
Sounds similar to NAR and sign seeking, feelings focused and self esteeming, a bit ecumenical. Jesus COULD do miracles anywhere anytime, but chose not to because he is all knowing. We are not. We aren’t going to be greater than Him.
Francis Chan preaches Francis Chan really well under the false auspices that he is humbly preaching about God.
Greg
This was a fabulous message of thirst and dying for Christ. Idk Francis Chan but I Do know God is able to use him as a vessel his kingdom just like he did Saul!
As for us.. where is proof of our love for souls? Of glad surrender that we might know Christ and the power of his resurrection?
Regardless what Me. Chan may have said ,done or believed in the past, God is able to see far beyond man, forgive deeper than any man. He is the Potter! This was a powerful message concerning his desire for Christ to be all and in us all. Let God smooth out the crooked places. Your job is to pray for such a one. Not condemn him as Satan.
Jas 4:12 KJV There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?
As for me, I will pray God be glorified in Me. Chan's walk and the souls that hear and obey the unadulterated gospel of grace, rejoice forevermore.
Rhonda, I never condemned Chan "as Satan". And you're not judging my judging, are you? That would be very hypocritical. After all, your job is to pray for me, not call out what you see as wrong, right?
I'm so dissappointed with brother Chan. He's teaching false history in regard to Catholicism, he's become a rogue idealist in my estimate. It really hurts my soul.
Don’t be distracted by doctrines and debates . As long as he his preaching the gospel of Jesus and people are getting saved that’s all that matters, God still get the glory and His kingdom grows. Don’t let the devil distract you and others with doctrines and debates it’s all to veer people to the side and sway from the main focus .
@@israelajala496 you think doctrines are a distraction?
Jacob Maier Acts 16:31, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” This is what matters. Everything else comes after. Even Paul and Barnabas had disputes in scripture that separated them . It’s the devils tactic to bring division instead of unity in the church, and one of the ways is by all these different winds of doctrines .
@@israelajala496 that's an interesting doctrine you are preaching
Jacob Maier I’m speaking nothing but biblical scripture reference. So yes, the Bible is interesting indeed.

Francis Chan has gone off the rails. He's running towards heresy lately.
Any specifics or just broad, accusations?
🤦
@@silverbackhayabusa I think you have your answer
@@silverbackhayabusa pro catholic and hanging out with word faith heretics
Scott you should be careful speaking about your brother in Christ and God’s child in the manner you are. You make judgments that has eternal significance rather than with an open heart listening to what Francis is saying and matching it up with the Word of God point by point.
