Only Jesus makes us good enough. We aim towards holiness by his power, but then when we mess up there is Grace and the new covenant where he became our righteousness - of which we do not deserve.
Faith without works is DeadJames 2:14-26 King James Version 14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
@@brandyreynolds4549 you could say faith without works is being dead in the water. You aren't going to go anywhere in life or bring the light of Christ to others. You're always saved by faith but we all should strive to be productive Christians.
I can do all things through Christ Jesus Christ died for us on the cross I love him very much he takes care of me I am 62 years old now 2020 has been a very bad year for a lot of people but I think Jesus because since my husband passed away Jesus has been taking care of me
Please pray for me because I struggle to be content with myself. I'm always on a diet and comparing myself to everyone else. I know God made me how he wanted me to be, but there's just so many doubts in my mind which leads me wanting to change myself in order to please people. Please pray that God will help me find my peace and joy in him and not in the acceptance of people🙏
this is my life verse its been with me since i hit 9th grade which now i am graduated in 2016 from high school now God has blessed with a family and right now we in time of trials. I know God has this his there for me even through these times of trials
EVEN WHEN I'M FACED WITH OBSTACLES, I CANNNNN DOOOOOO ALLLLLL THHHHINGGGGGSSS THROUGHHHH CHRISTTTTTT WHOOOOOO STRENGTHENSSSSSS MEEEEEE! AMEN . ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💋🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Thank you Minister Parr for this anointed and inspiring teaching on Philippians 4! Praying for your ministry and a great harvest for the Lord Jesus Christ!
Thanks for the message. I have learnt to differentiate between needs and wants, I pray that God may supply my needs according to his riches in glory. May God bless your ministry.
I thank the Lord for strengthening me, putting weakening of strength under the feet of Christ. I know I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! In the name and blood of Christ, amen and glory to Yah! Annelies Bakker, the Netherlands.
thankyou for that awsome bible study i got so much out of it God knows our hearts and when we are ready to listen he speaks we need more of these series i feel so blessed in finding your posts and i truly know that God is doing a work in my life i pray for your ministry God bless you 😇
Aw man, thank you so much Elizabeth. That was very kind of you. I really do sincerely appreciate your prayers and taking the time to encourage me. Bless you,
This series on Philippians was awesome! Thank you. As a ministry student, we are studying the prison epistles and when I came across your series, I decided to watch all of the videos relating to it. Amazing job breaking down this epistle. I learned so much. May God continue to bless you.
I know this was a few yeas ago but God's words and promises are for always. I needed this to push forward into this New Year. I like your interpretation that didn't take away from His Word in paraphrasing.
It's easy to remain content when your needs are met, not so much when it's not. Though Acts would suggest God's not partial, evidence would say otherwise as some are blessed more than others.
GOD knows what we need to bring us closer to him .I've always had it hard with nine fathers and alcohol in my family.but my real father JESUS was always there to help me through.I pray HE does the same for you .HE loves us the same .but our actions make us what we are.GOD BLESS YOU
I really appreciate you saying that. Yes, I went through the entire book of Philippians. Did you catch the playlist? I also went through the book of James and I'm currently working through the book of Ephesians. Enjoy!
Thank Allen Parr, I like it when I watch your videos and you express that you aren't yet content. It makes it real you are expressing real feelings. I sometimes think that people who are spiritually mature have everything figured out. I must understand that's it's a process for us all. God bless.
The poor can't help the poor but the rich can. I believe that your heart is anchored in God and you have the talent do generate great wealth you will make use of that wealth to the glory of God.
Thank you for these videos. They are concise and still thorough enough. I am using them in preparing for the summer camp we do each year with our grandchildren. Felt led to do Philippians this year cause I love Philippians!! Then I found your videos which are helpful in organizing my thoughts.
Good job! Just stumbled on to this cite. This is a anointed presentation of the gospel. Hopefully, listeners apply these principles to their daily lives!
Hi Brother You videos are so encouraging I shared them around alot to friends and brethren. They just love them God bless your ministry Arjune Latchman
Your videos are incredible! And Philippians happens to be my favourite book in the bible :) I would love to see you go through other books in the future!
Hey Sandra! That's AWESOME! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. That's an encouragement to me. Any recommendations for the next study? I'm considering going through the book of Ruth. Your thoughts?
Allen, I love to listen your videos very much, but might I ask that you slow down a bit, it's hard keep up and absorb all of that great information with all of speed talking you do! By the end of the video I have a hard time recollecting what you said, so please pause, tell a funny story of some sort or joke, this will help me to remember what you have said and keep coming for more! Thank you for considering my suggestion and I hope that you may consider implementing this, again, thank you for all of your videos that you put out! Especially enjoyed your personal testimony video! Like I said, personal stories just really hit home!
Man I loved this series on Philippians. It has been a blessing and I have took much of this material into my Sunday school class as a teacher. With that said, I think there is a mistake in the video towards the end. You put Prov 30:7-9 on the screen when you were talking about "As to you Philippians....." at the 6:05 mark in the video. I think that was supppsed to be Philippians 4:15 though. No? God Bless.
2022-02-24 ... PLEASE pray for me, and marriage to my beloved wife Katherine ... I'm about to have a major breakdown after seven weeks apart, I pray often, I desperately need The Lord's guidance and a miracle ... "thank you" ...
Hello Allen. In Pilippians 4:17 it says: Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account. NIV What account is Paul referring to and more of what?
Hey Anna! Thanks so much for that insightful question. So, what I believe Paul has in mind here is our heavenly "account." In other words, when we give to others we are storing up "treasures" in heaven (Mt. 6:19). In other words, we are accumulating heavenly rewards when we give to other people. So, Paul was encouraging them that their gift to him is accruing heavenly "credit" or rewards in their favor. I hope this helps.
Great question! Essentially this "account" that Paul is referring to would be something like a running tab of righteousness that only God is keeping track of obviously for the purpose of rewarding us one day. So Paul says he desires that more be credited to their "heavenly rewards" account. One of the ways they could do that would be by supporting his ministry financially. However, Paul said what was more important was for them to have increase in their spiritual account. So sorry for the delay. I just struggle to keep up with all the comments. God bless you,
Brother Allen, there has never been a video you've done that I didn't love. I was hoping you could do a video on the book of revelation? I've always struggled with wether it should be taken litteraly or metaphorically?
Very strange question. You are walking towards the wrong path. Everywhere there is a parable, like the gospels, it’s clearly stated. Unless it’s stated in Revelations that the book is metaphorical, then it’s not. This is the sort of question that an unbeliever would ask.
Hello brother. All who live a Christly life n do the Fathers will struggle. If our heart and mind ARE ALLIGNED to do Gods will we will be content whether we struggle, go thru hardships or see no APPARENT end of struggling. We have to keep in mind that when we Die Christ will give us complete rest frm our struggles. Hope i helped.
Am I crazy to think when I’m reading the Bible, it’s talking to me? How will I know that Paul is just talking to the Philippians and not directly at me? I feel emotion when I read it but am just being a narcissist? Sometimes I read the Bible and I’m filled with joy only to be followed by self doubt later.
We ask and receive not, beca we ask amiss, that we may consume it upon our lusts. Cleanse your hands ye sinne, purify your hearts ye double minded, a double minded man is unstable in all his ways. If we keep God's commandments, we assure our hearts before God, then we have confidence that what we ask he hears us. Faith worketh by love, to love God is to keep his commandments. If we keep not his commandments, how dwelleth the love of God in us, when we have this world's goods, and withhold them from our brother who hath need. If we show no mercy, we shall receive no mercy. Do the works that God has prepared beforehand Eph2. This is a seal of our righteousness, therefore be not deceived, he that doeth righteousness is righteous. The effectual fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much. Faith is confidence, faith is trust, and because we have faith, we know with a tranquil heart that that God hears us. It is not a blind leap, we know, if we believe and doubt not. Have faith in God, he is faithful and changes not. Grace and peace be multiplied through the knowledge of God and of Christ. Apprehend that for which we have been apprehended. Lay hold of the promises of God.
Ha! Honestly Juan, not often enough. However, making these videos really forces me to get into my word on a daily basis in some form or fashion. Why do you ask?
I was just wondering, since I started reading the bible more serious about two months ago from the Old Testament all the way up to the New Testament in order, right now I'm in 2 Kings. I started on his journey hoping to get to know God more and reconnect with him. And for him to let me know that he's with me, basically I want a sign from him.
Think about it... "ALL THINGS " though, it's not referring to just this specific thing, it's referring to all thigs... So this specific thing and other stuff...
Oops phillipians the whole writing beginning to end pertaining to other letters. As for example Corinthians beginning to end often times scriptures get misinterpreted by using just one verse rather than reading the whole meaning behind it.
Kinda crazy how Christians can minimize the riches of God to only being the bare minimum provision 😂😂 honestly at that point what's the difference between what I can provide myself? I'm so confused
anything that we have on this world is an earthly possession, and when we die, none of it will be coming with us. what god can provide us is so great, so wonderful and so beautiful that with jesus, its like we lost nothing at all
@@Bubsack101 that doesn't mean we gotta live in lack. I feel that's why God was so close to those who has nothing. That's not the way it is supposed to be, even though it's not coming with us God blessed His children. David, Job and all kinds of prophets. I don't believe God brought people here for them to suffer and be without. Jesus solves the problem of sin and our lives are up to us to work at.
@@isaiahaskew5753 its interesting that you bring up the book of job. Satan said that job only loved him because you he gave him much wealth and family. but god claimed that this wasn't the truth, and allowed Satan to take everything from job. yet job stayed faithful to god. it is important to remember that god isnt the one causing the evils of this world.
@@Bubsack101 but Ecclesiastes book talks about how everyone doesn't get what they deserve. That this world and universe is too complex to suggest that just because you're under God you'll have a good life. Most of the time it's opposite
@@Bubsack101 Job actually accused God of being a monster and God gave him everything back after they had a discussion. It's deeper than just be faithful and God will bless you. Not how this works
These videos are great. I struggle with being good enough for Heaven. But I know it's not works, it's faith in Christ to save us alone.
Only Jesus makes us good enough. We aim towards holiness by his power, but then when we mess up there is Grace and the new covenant where he became our righteousness - of which we do not deserve.
1 John 1 :9, If we confess our sins he is gonna forgive.

18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

Thank you Minister Parr for this anointed and inspiring teaching on Philippians 4! Praying for your ministry and a great harvest for the Lord Jesus Christ!
Thank you for putting out these bible studies, I went through reading the Philippians and gained many things 😊
That statement about temptations that come from riches is powerful. Tempts us to be self-sufficient and forget about God.
Thanks for the message. I have learnt to differentiate between needs and wants, I pray that God may supply my needs according to his riches in glory. May God bless your ministry.
Yes we must give Jesus everything because he will give us peace

He's an outstanding speaker and a great mind as well.

Brother Allen, there has never been a video you've done that I didn't love. I was hoping you could do a video on the book of revelation? I've always struggled with wether it should be taken litteraly or metaphorically?
