I'm so thankful to hear you every morning as I travel for my work. I have so much stress each and every day and to listen to you and your calmness relaxes me to hear the word. I also am thankful that on the odd day where I may miss you as I may have a late start to my day, your daily reading can be found the same day here on RUclips. Thank you!
AMEN, amen, never out self, always about GOD, and thank you to MR Begg, for such true and clear preaching of the scriptures, , there is but one GOD, GOD PLUS NO ONE , ONLY GOD , and Mr BEGG IS SO CLEAR ABOUT THIS --- READ YOUR BIBLE, STUDY THE SCRIPTURES AND BE OBEDIENT TO THE WORD OF GOD.
Please pray for me. I am a Christian for many years but have been gripped by severe depression and anxiety off and on most of my life. I am 55 and I fear the future and losing family members and not being to work enough to sustain myself. I have no purpose or meaning in life and can't wait for God to take me home. I had a full hysterectomy 9 years ago that has triggered but have had depression and anxiety since I was a child and abused for many years as a child. It's hard for me to trust God with my life and future when he allows such harm to come to small children. I am sick of people saying that we live in a fallen world. God has more power than the enemy but yet God allows things to happen. Nothing can happen unless God allows it. So hurt, angry, anxious and depressed and I don't want to do amything anymore. I am tired of working hard and making all the effort with Gods strength only to fall back and not know where to go. I don't read the bible because it's just old history and it doesn't makes sense except maybe proverbs. I know Christians that used and abuse others to get ahead in this life and they have a good mind and can work and get ahead and not have to worry financially and I have helped and given to people all my life and I am still struggling with this. There is a treatment called rtms for persistent depression but it's a province away and its costly so I asked my psychiatrist for ECT treatments and he doesn't think it's a good idea so I basically am on meds and just existing with no joy.
I'm really sorry for all that you're going through. And I don't say that as you've got a bad hand at this life and I pitty you but as I empathize with your hurt. I want to say to you first that God never in the history of our world owed anything to anyone because all is His Creation. the Creator doesn't owe explanation to His creation. Because He created everything for His Glory it is the whole creation that owes Him to live in His Perfect Law and Order because He made it so! But man(kind) rebeled wanting something "more" as in, wanting to know more things that he thought that we're hidden from him. In his rebellion he profaned God's Law and by that he was made guilty of The Transgression of it! The wages of the transgression of God's perfect law is death so men(kind) received that condemnation! Secondly, that God so loved the world that He sent His only Son to the world. Jesus was stripped of His Glory as God and became a baby and walked on this earth only so that He Can be Killed instead of the men(kind) to fulfill God's Perfect Law! He lived A perfect life and was sent to The Cross after He was tortured so that He can identify with ALL you are going through! On That Cross it was God's Judgment who fell upon His Son and was God The Father Who executed His Son to fulfill the Perfect Law which was broken by YOU! He Rose again and Now He lives in the heavenly places and He draws unto Him The Sheep that He will resurrect in the coming time to be with Him forever in Heaven where there will be no more pain nor tears and no more sin! Thirdly you must repent of your sins and believe that God is The Creator God and that your only hope of Salvation is Through Jesus's Atoning Sacrifice! Fourthly,that you cannot be a Christian if God doesn't knows you! You cannot know God if you say that The Bible is just a story(or history for that matter) and that you don't believe or despise! The Bible is God's Own Word given to man in order that he might be wise unto Salvation! And finally, I think that in the midst of all your dark place, the main reason is sin. You can be God's son even if you still suffer all that you suffer (that much more He rejoices in Your sanctification before the Whole Heaven) but if your not, even in richness you still won't have peace! You can't possibly have peace while you are still in Sin because ultimately the enmity you experience is against The Almighty God! You're God's foe and His Perfect Judgment and Holy Wrath is to be revealed against YOU because you (as me, as the whole mankind)are the one that has broken His Holy Law and therefore you must die when The Judgment Will come! And now, is His Kindness and Mercy which endures you still so that you might repent and Believe in Jesus! God loves you! And His plans for you transcends this life! You might still go through suffering, but suffering with Jesus is unto your sanctification and His Glory and He Will Never leave you nor forsake you! You must read God's Word because only there you can find life and bread for your soul! You must find a local church because only there you can grow with and in the Body of Christ! Whatever christians you think that you've met, if they are not conformed to the image of Christ (living as He lived) they were no true christians. while it is said, “Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked Me.” For who provoked Him when they had heard? Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses? And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness? And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who were disobedient? And so we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief. Hebrews 3:15-19 NASB2020 Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and restraint and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance? But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, Romans 2:4-5 NASB2020
God is everything that is Good, he cannot do evil. It is impossible for God to sin. The Devil is the father of lies and sin. He is very much active on this earth. God had a perfect paradise created, the garden of Eden. Adam and Eve ignored God's warning and brought sin on the world. God did not and still doesn't. When the devil whispers evil into our ears and we listen then that is on us not God. We are sinful that is why Jesus came to the world to die a painful, horrible death so that when we declare with our mouth he is Lord we can have eternal life with God in heaven. God has perfection waiting for his children but those against God have only the lake of fire waiting. God does defeat Evil, it will not win. We just have to wait on God's timing. He wants all people on earth to hear about him, to have the good news preached in all places and to all people. All this is found in God's holy word. God's word given to us for help and comfort because God knew we would need it. A Christian, a TRUE Christian molds their life off of it. Striving to live as Jesus lived. In kindness, mercy, compassion, etc. The fruits of the spirit. One can not have God's help if one is not willing to hear from God.
@@LadyWolf81 I hear what you are saying it's just that I don't think it's fair that because Adam and Eve screwed up that all of mankind should suffer. It's like having 2 children and 1 does bad and they both get punished. It's not fair to the one that didn't do anything bad.
@@georginarandolphgirl66 But we all do bad. That's the thing. If you've lied, that's a sin, stole something, lustful thoughts, hate for someone, the list goes on. Adam and Eve did sin and that sin got passed to their children. We all sin and fall short of God's glory. Humans can never be good enough, we are selfish, sinful beings at our core. That is what makes Jesus' sacrifice so amazing. God gave us a way to Heaven, us. We who at heart are sinful, never can live up to perfection. Jesus is our salvation. We accept him into our heart and automatically we get to go to paradise when we die. It's an amazing love, for a perfect being, sinless, to die a traitors horrible painful death for us. The Hebrews in the old testament are a perfect example of us. God saves them, trouble comes and they blame God. He saved them again, they blame God for trouble. They doubt God so much he said they could never get to the promise land because of their unbelief. That is so totally mankind. All of us. Their children who did have Faith finally make it to the promise land because they saw how Faithful God was. How loving. And he is. We are sinful because We are, not Adam and Eve. Jesus is the way to Heaven. Our sins wiped away. Never perfect but forgiven.

Good insight into the integrity of the Cannon. I am wondering how the book of Enoch fits into this scheme since it is referred to in Jude.
