This is what I know. If you are listening to a pastor and he’s telling you everything you want to hear and not stepping on your toes… run. Must go by the God’s word. There must be conviction. There must be repentance.
Amen
Jesus knew man's heart. Anhe doesnt save man in his sin that has to be repented of ,the unrighteous,, will not inherit the kingdom of God,,
Exactly!
Amen
Yes!
My daughter and grandchildren stopped going to Browns Bridge church (Andy Stanley) and I thank God they have. This is so ungodly!!!!!
Than I guess you except child molester as well?
I bet a lot left after this sermon? Maybe even before?
Jesus had great compassion for the lost but He made it very clear that we cannot carry on living in sin!!!!
This was horrifying to listen too. His father must have been heartbroken to here this. Every pastor has the right to call out false teachings as this. Always love hearing truth from pastor John. ❤️
@@SwiSwiKat ... I'm sure you are trying (and failing) to be controversial... the Word of God clearly refutes your claim.. there are no Christian homosexuals... never has been and never will.
If there is anyone among his congregation who desires God’s word, they ought to leave quickly!!!! NOW
@@curtbevington77 Amen to your words ! No such thing as a Homosexual CHRISTIAN ! It is like saying a serial killer is a Christian !
GOD’S WORD NEVER CHANGES NOR DOES GOD’S MIND !
Andy Stanley is teaching and preaching for Satan and Satan is smiling.
@@SwiSwiKat You are missing a major point. Sex is NOT love. It's an expression of a feeling and the only way to reproduce. Feelings are also NOT love. While some feelings are legitimate others are not. That's the problem with our modern culture, we have reduced love down to feelings. We have sayings like, "follow your heart" and "they fell in love". Your point about whether we would know if it is a sin or not if the bible didn't call it one seems to come from an evolutionary world view. As though God didn't create us and later we got a man made book called the bible that tells us what to do. Using that logic we could also argue that murder is not a sin because we see murder in nature ALL the time. Yes, we would still know homoseuality wrong because it goes against nature. In fact, if you stay true to the evolutionary point you must admit that homosexuals would have gone extinct millions of years ago because they wouldn't have reproduced. We instinctively know that homosexuality is wrong because we know about the natural order.
But we know that the bible is the word of God and we must obey it. God created sex for married people only. End of story. Being attracted to the same sex does NOT make you "gay" ! It makes you a human with a temptation problem just like everyone else! When you act on those temptations, then you are committing homosexual sin. Being tempted is not a sin. Most men are attracted to women other than their wives, that does not make them adulterers. It makes me a human that is tempted but with the temptation there is a way of escape. Jesus Himself "was tempted in ALL ways as we are, yet without sin."
His father affirmed him.
Andy Stanley went to Charles Stanley and asked him if he could volunteer for the ministry because he hadn't been called and Charles said, yes.
This was in one of Andy's books I believe. Problem is this is in direct contradiction to the word of God.
"We've got to figure it out." No, this was figured out from the beginning of time. Yes we are all sinners, who have all been told to go and sin no more.
True. I am not sure what he thinks needs figured out. If you read the Genesis story slowly and take in all the meaning, you will see the amount of care and precision God took in making the marriage union. All the animals that were paraded in front of Adam to find a suitable helper and finding none, was to make Adam realize what the woman God created was for. Adam knew what a woman was. Andy has not figured it out.
but we all sin so ?????
@@kchurch2213
But The Lord Jesus told the woman caught in the act of adultery to
"GO AND SIN
NO MORE".
So what's your point.
Nothing to figure it out, homosexuals might as well hear now....Heaven will not be your home unless you REPENT, TURN FROM WHAT GOD CALLS AN ABOMINATION......GOD IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD, IT DOESNT MATTER IF YOU DONT UNSTAND IT , OR BELIEVE IT, IT IS WRITTEN.....NOTHING TO FIGURE OUT. FOLKS GOD IS "GOD" AND ""WE" ARE NOT!! SAME REASON GOD HAD
TO DISCARD SATAN AND HIS FOLLOWERS OUT OF HEAVEN.....
Yes, Lynn M…
Pastor Andy Stanley is preaching a different GOSPEL, he is offering a wide road. Matthew 7:14, “Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Andy forgot that God loves the sinner BUT He hates the sin. You cannot love your sin more than God meaning you don't want to sin. Someone going to Church as a homosexual is not there to feel good about his salvation, he has to know the same God who destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah is still against that sin and the Judgement is at hand when you continue in that sin.
Don't forget how the" righteous daughters" of lot got him drunk and had sexual relations with their own father.
I was an adulterer for a while and still going to church. You got to want to be delivered from your sin and recognize its destruction. If my church elders knew of my willful sin I’d wouldn’t be coming back most likely. We know that Jesus loves us unconditionally but hates our sin. I’m grateful for the grace that God gave me to get to this point in life. We can go to church every time the doors are open and look like that great person of God on the outside but God knows our true self. The sinner needs to learn Gods Will in each of there lives. My adulterous life was not in Gods plain.
I was blessed to attend the shepherds conference this year and I loved that John spoke about this. Woke culture in general should not be allowed to infect the church.
When the so called pastor doesn't follow the word of God, then you should already have your answer. Jesus himself said my sheep know my voice, his voice is the word of God! If they follow someone who is not going by the very words, and voice of Jesus, the word of God. Then you should automatically know that that's not a Church, that's not a Pastor, and those are not Jesus's sheep. Just saying, Jesus also said if the world hates you, remember that it hated me first. Well when you see the world loving these churches, and movie and T.V. and Music stars loving it, then they can't be from or about Jesus. Jesus gave us his spirit to discern these things.
@@captiveamerica669nor if the Pastor doesn't preach and live by the True Gospel of Jesus Christ. A pastor should always demonstrate how we are to live our lives by the True Gospel of Jesus Christ!
Amen absolute truth sodomy has no business in a true church
But it has!
I honestly am totally turned off to John McArthur. I know he knows God’s word but I do not appreciate his videos of criticism of others. He should leave that to God to Judge. It seems that’s all he does anymore.
Heard a bible believing radio preacher tell of a pastor in a small, rural town that asked his advice on building Church membership what to do. The radio preacher asked how many members he currently had. The pastor’s response was that he was embarrassed to say it was something like 10 or so regulars each Sunday. The radio preacher told him ,” well you must be preaching the truth because your congregation would be much bigger if you went along with the new generation, feel goodism, of today’s culture immersed churches. That’s some hard truth right there.
sometimes i think if the world ended and you and those 10 people were the only ones in heaven, you would be more happy that you were right than you would be sad about all the people who never heard about Jesus... makes you think doesn't it...
@@kchurch2213 Does make you think but I think you’re right!
Well isn’t that the Truth! Charles divorced and still behind the pulpit. Scripture disqualified him when he became divorced. I am divorced my wife left for another and I know me holding a position in church would be a stain and disqualification for me. And the nut fell close to the tree with Andy. He is catering to the masses for number sake while preaching social gospel issues as Andy encourages them all the way to hell.
It is crystal clear that Andy Stanley is not only un-biblical but Anti- Scriptures by preaching a sugar coated sermon spiced with culturally accepted norms which is the authority above the Bible
@@DB-cx6cb The Bible clearly teaches that if a wife or husband walks away from their marriage for them to stay unmarried or reconcile to keep from sinning. I don't think Charles nor his wife ever remarried. But like in your case, when adultery is a factor, the sin falls on the one who committed the sin, not the one trying to do the right thing. Paul recommended (by permission not commandment) that the unmarried stay unmarried to dedicate their lives to God's will. People don't realize the lengths God will go to for His will to be done. For example, when Judah and his sons didn't follow God's will concerning Tamar, He killed Judah's son who disobeyed and allowed Tamar to trick Judah into fathering her child. A good friend of mine who had a great ministry going had his wife admit to adultery and left the marriage without letting him have a choice. He could have listened to people who didn't know God's word and quit like you did, but after a lot of prayer and study he realized God could still use him. Now he counsels married couples and has been able to help so many because he's experienced what a lot of those people have. When a person is dedicated to God's will for their life, you can guarantee Satan will use whatever means necessary to hinder and keep it from happening. He will use your loved ones, and it's on them, not you, if they allow themselves to be used by him. Don't let tradition, spiritual immaturity, or embarrassment keep you from serving Christ. Stick to the Bible and God's will. Let God be true and every man a liar.
God never changes-Hallelujah! He doesn’t shift or conform. Jesus is my rock and anchor. Pray for Andy’s salvation.
What is missing in Andy's message? God's inspired word.
My brother lived as a homosexual for years. My mother and I loved him, prayed for him and stood firm on the Bible. Mother told him over and over that God created him as a man, not as a homosexual. When his eyes were opened to the truth he saw that the devil had deceived him. He never married and never had children of his own. The devil robbed him of those blessings. He has a unique place now as he knows how lgbtq think. He knows that they are confused and literally blinded to the Truth.
THIS!
"... that GOD created him as a man"
How dare him not cast the stone of subjective comparison in order to subconsciously justify contempt and hatred!
"..... that GOD created him as a man, not as a homosexual...." [or even 'trans'] = these are PROFOUNDLY important distinctions 👊💥
@@cpk2GIRL can anyone tell us how animals choose to be homosexual?
@@cpk2GIRL What is the profoundly important distinction if it accomplishes what the devil wants it to? His goal is to steal, kill and destroy. Homosexual lifestyle and transexual lifestyle cause people to lose out on the best the God has for them in life. I don’t know any transgender people, but my brother knew a few. He said they never got what they imagined when they had surgery and they had to have surgical procedures over and over. They had infections and one person was beaten nearly to death because he waited too long to tell the man he was dating that he was a transgender woman.
I wouldn’t be listening to this other than your making a point about Pastor MacArthur calling him out. ALL pastors who have discernment should be calling A. Stanley out!
As a woman in my late 60's, I listened to hundreds of his father's sermons, seeing this "sermon" makes my heart cry. Is there no one that can confront Andy, in love? Let's pray this is a temorary victory for the enemy.
From the information about Andy that I've been privy to he doesn't really care to change his tone.
His father did, and for long time they didn’t spoke to each other. Little by little they started a relationship, but no Bible involved. Dr. Stanley is not responsible for his son going astray.
Sometimes I think Charles Stanley needed put this woke, snarky, arrogant son of his over his knee and give him a good spanking.
@@laurenmay2098I can't help but disagree. Charles approved his don's teaching in his latter days.
@@kerrylawson7515 he did not, can you give me a link of him public saying that? They amended their father son relationship, but Dr Stanley did not approved his teaching.
READ the WORD and PREACH the WORD !!!!!!
And don’t delete nor add ✝️
Andy Stanley thinks he has more compassion than God!! You can't compare sin to sin. Maybe he needs to get saved and really come to know the God of the Bible. Because this talk is of satan.
God bless pastor John. Andy is an obvious false teacher
Whether the scripture is right or wrong is not irrelevant, it is everything.
Not just hard to listen to but very sad to listen to . Praying for A. Stanley
I wonder if he reined things in whilst his Father was still alive. Since his passing AS appears to be someone left off a leash...or am I imagining it.
I do have "gay" son, but I couldn't disagree more with Andy Stanley. Preach the passages...don't give a political analysis, Mr. Stanley.
I hope your son didn't have sensitivity and deep thinking and emotionally empathetic and artistic and a.d.d. and introverted and the rest of the personality misclassified as gay by the teasings and bullyings of others, or just as bad by the well-meaning but poor counseling of others, but there is hope. Everyone whom the Father compels to come to the Son will come to the Son
I hope your son did not end up being emotionally damaged for life by those subconsciously justify contempt and hatred through the stone of subjective comparison.
Andy Stanley is a wolf plain and simple.
"plain"
Andy Stanley is a wolf by every definition. The fact that most of the people in that auditorium didn't walk out tells you that there were few if any believers present during this worthless garbage of a rant. This is the judgment of God. There will be many who will be absolutely shocked when our Lord says to them, "I never knew you, depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!". They have received their reward.
I agree with you Paul.
Andy Stanley is one of the biggest liberals , he has lost his way the false teaching is all around us, this is why we have to study our Bibles and ask God for discernment.
We should be praying for this mans salvation.
Who John MacArthur, yes we should.
@Firebird obviously he meant Andy Stanley
We should pray for my pastor John macarthur as well. That he would continue calling out these false teachers
Which ones??? Salvation? 😮😢
I believe Andy Stanley is guys and is therefore creating a god who condones it
When you know God's Word,listening to stanley and esp the other one after 5 sentences is enough to discern wolves and false pastors
I simply cannot stomach listening to Stanley. The more he talks the more convinced I am that he is not merely a false teacher, not merely a heretic, but truly an apostate. My guess is that if he has ever read James 3:1, it meant zero to him, nor did 2 Peter 2:3.
I agree but have you heard Brandan Robertson “preach” or defend his sin?
@@nykka3 I must confess, no.
Andy Stanley's teaching reflects how little he knows about who God really is. 😢😢😢
It's important to use the Bible terms "sodomy" and "sodomite" when discussing this issue. Using the worlds invented terms for this behavior such as "gay" or "homosexual" normalizes this atrocious and sinful behavior.
And the words we use are important, many of the people who are ok with gays adopting children wouldn't be as agreeable to allowing sodomites to do so.
Sodomy and sodomite are invented words too.
And homosexuals is used in
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
@@jefaljone They both come from Sodom and it's sins. "Homosexual" is a perversion of "sexual", which is a term that refers ONLY to reproductive biology. Flowers on plants are "sexual". Sodomites are not.
@@FloridaGirl- That's just the translation in your modern Bible. The greek word used there is "aresenokoites" and it means "a male engaging in same-gender sexual activity; a sodomite, pederast."
@floridagirl6690
Thank You & God Bless!
*1 Cor. 6:9* _Or do you Not know that the _*_unrighteous_*_ will Not inherit the kingdom of God? Do Not be deceived: neither the _*_sexually immoral_*_ , nor _*_idolaters_*_ , nor _*_adulterers_*_ , nor men who practice _*_homosexuality_* ...
There is a way that seems right to man but the ends are the way of death. He is truly beguiled .
How could this be? How could Andy think this way with a wonderful Pastor as Dr Stanley. I feel bad that Dr Stanley endured this. He didn't deserve this.
This is so painful listening to him. I thank God for pastor John.
Andy must have missed church when his dad preached…..
😅
It's like choosing the mark of the beast you are willing to go along so you have the means to live.
A shame and disgrace.
Only God's grace can change lives and only shepherds can teach the truth in love and with conviction.
NORMAL PEOPLE TYPE BIBLE CRITICISM ONLINE AND LEARN THE BIBLE IS FICTION AND THE HEBREW MYTHS ARE MYTHS, STUPID. HOW EDUCATED ARE YOU, CHARLES?
Does he ever use the Scriptures? Let Scripture interpret Scripture. This is what Pastor MacArthur does. This is why I listen to his teaching.
Andy Stanley shows his contempt for the Word of God.
What a relief Charles his father has gone home to glory this a.m. He has been further spared from his son's shenanigans which is a merciful blessing 💜.
Andy Stanley is full of himself. And he is a deceived lost sinner.
Charles is where he can now rest and rejoice. God Bless Him. And I pray Andy will be unclear conviction.
Why won’t Charles Stanley call out/correct Andy Stanley?
Because he is crooked too! Look into him, not just his "sermons"
I heard he approves, but I haven’t researched this to confirm.
Maybe he has tried 😞. I do know his dad's ministry has been a great encouragement to me in various stages of my life, that can't be denied. 📖 ✝️
That's what I said to people and my ex who listens to Charles Stanley!!! I really don't listen to Charles Stanley but I know he doesn't preach that stuff.
@@patrickgragg5602 really my ex listens to him. Do you have any proof. I don't listen to him cause he is too soft in his teaching
Listening to this the Holy Spirit reminded me that we as Parents 😢 commit our children to to the Father’s care and He is able to keep what which we commit to Him until that Glorious Day of Christ’s Return😮
Andy has his own remnant...Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyers, Kenneth Copeland,Benny Hinn
Exactly! He no longer believes in the Bible after listening to atheist Sam Harris.
Add Louis Giglio a big influence on Andy and a Stanley family friend
1 John 2:18
18 Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared. From this we know that it is the last hour.
Well said. That scripture came to my mind as well as I was listening.
He’s rambling!
We have to guard our hearts from false teaching all the time.🙏
I wonder what his father thinks about him? Has Charles Stanley called out his son about this corrupt preacher? In the Old Testament the priest Eli did not correct his two sons for their sins, so,GOD took care of it. Them three of them DIED. Andy needs to repent.
Judge them by their fruit, no? Is Andy not the fruit of Charles? Does this not reveal the truth of who they are?
It is written!
Andy Stanley does not know God and cares nothng about what God thinks concerning "sin, righteousness, and judgment".
He cares only about pleasing people to fill his pews and coffers ($$$) and tries to disguise it as "compassion".
Personally, I think it’s about money. He doesn’t speak the unadulterated Truth of The Holy Scriptures. People are just dumb. They want their fancies tickled.
Can’t finish listening to this guy!! You tell ‘em, Pastor John!!
Never listen to Andy, but I do listen to the father! Charles Stanley great pastor.
so true!!
Wrong, His daddy,Charles ,claimed to have sit down conversations with the LORD in his presence at his home! His sermons were just better hidden but still false
He has held conferences with his son, which is very disappointing. He also is divorced, so he should have stepped down from preaching.
HisServant, Are you sure the Bible says he must step down? What if it was his wife who filed for divorce? She had mental health issues. That's not an exception in the Bible?
@@patrickgragg5602 not sure where you get your info from, but his dad's use of scripture has greatly blessed my life (and not just me).
Spot on! I left my church for this very reason because the so called pastors are not feeding the sheep and so I left because the Holy Spirit left my church.
Does the bible say as Christians we are to expose false teachers?
Yes why wouldn't we warn others about false teachers?
Yes. And it says to kick them out of the assembly of believers if they refuse to repent.
YES
Galatians 1:6-9
Absolutely, that’s part of caring for the sheep.
Is it loving to embrace sin? Pastors are to council members living in sin and admonish the adulterer, drunk, wife beater, prostitute, etc. A Bible teaching pastor corrects his flock wanting eternal life for them not hell.
We left a church late last year after they were following, quoting, recommending people who were going off the woke social justice gospel. The last straw was when an elders wife said that, “God let’s babies die in abortion because they probably would have had a crappy life on earth.” Wokeness infects everything.
Wow! We are living in evil times...
IF in fact a gay person has been born again the issue of gay or straight is solved because he or she is no longer of him or herself but are of God and no longer desire the same lifestyle . the Holy Sprit dwells within therefore sin cannot abide.
That is not true they can still be be tempted. They need to be under the word to have cleansing.
Yes…they can still be tempted…and even fall into sin….but they can’t stay in sin and habitually continue to live in sin…as 1st John 3 says they can’t..and still be a child of God! Read 1st John 3:8-10!
“ Snake like Jesus kind a way? “ Andy Stanley is preaching “culture”not Christianity.
Andy is a wolf. He elevates gays as some "special sinner." It is demonic and just bizarre. It is ironic that Andy criticized another church for CRT. He has been all in on CRT.
If the pastor of a church teaches as Jesus did: "go and sin no more", there is a clear cut dividing line between those who want to do that and those who want to ignore it. Preaching is not about taking away or keeping ones church. Preaching is to bring people to Christ and then teaching them the clear word of God that tells us how to then live. It's the Word of God that is sharper than a two-edged sword clearly dividing the bone from the marrow.
The Church is made up of "called out ones." ....Church is for the saints.
Love pastor John! He is a true man of God. I pray God let him stay with us for many many more years.
May God continue to Bless and preserve John Macarthur.
Well if I had been going to Andy Stanley's church, I'd take his advice and find another church
😂 I agree 💯👍!!
WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM
HE WAS A GOOD TEACHER
WE HAVE TO PRAY FOR HIM
I can’t believe that nonsense coming out of him! His so deceived!
Andy, you are a lost cause. I will pray for you.
My personal experiences attended Andy sermon at North Point, the church welcome all. ' Come as you are' in hope that the Holy Spirite may do work in you and leave as a diferent you. I was a none believed or an atheist, but was transformed by his teaching, became a believer and born again during my 3 years 2015 to 2018.
Both my wife and I volunteered help leading youth group. My overall experience with Andy was like a sponge, learning about amny biblical events, the teaching of God's words, Christ relationship and fellowships.
Their Faith is hoping not believing. The Bible is plain. You must TURN and REPENT, stop the sins of destruction, changed person, Reader of the Bible, not just trusting the speaker. Ask yourself why is the path to Heaven NARROW ?? Too many have itching ears to here what they want 🥲
My heart breaks for his late wonderful father, Charles Stanley, whom I still Trust all his teachings. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I heard a snippet of Andy Stanley talking about how he listened to an atheist on the world of God and AGREED with Him! Clearly not knowing God's word .
So, people living in open rebellion to the word of God love God more than people who follow Him?
Jesus says, "If you love Me, keep My commandments."
That's what's so confusing about these labels and classifications. We'd probably agree that what matters is whether or not they are repentant. The so-called Gay Christian movement is highly dangerous, in the same way as a Drug-Addicted Christian or a Porn-Addicted Christian label would be. If they're repentant then they love God much because they have been forgiven much; but if that were the case, can't tell from Stanley's preaching.
He is a legend to himself making up his own theology his own ideas his own philosophy his own religion.
How can someone that had the training he had the father he had be so unbelievably screwed up ... Sorry for the harsh words but it is individuals like this fellow would do more damage to the church and it's relationship to the world then the devil ever could.
He sings a siren’s song. No wonder he has such a huge church.
secret recipe for a large, modern Church- never communicate that people's biggest issue is "sin"...
John MacArthur has a large church. Can't go by that.
God have mercy! How did Andy miss out having had Dr. C. Stanley has a father. May the Lord convict him. He is behaving like Eli's sons in the old testament. God forgive for this heresy. Mercy mercy Lord and turn him around😊
A. Stanley has gone completely out of his mind. What a horrible “teacher”
A verse of truth comes to mind. Hosea 4:17-19
Authorized (AKJV) Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
I agree with Andy Stanley we can all show love whether people are gay or not and let God decide
The Lord knows those who are his,and all who belong to the Lord must turn away from evil. 2 Timothy 19
His father said if a pastor doesn’t focus on Jesus run out the door. Run people run.
Matthew 24:4-5.
We need TRUTH!!
Hey Andy. It’s already figured out. Apostasy, thy name is Stanley.
I am called to owe no man nothing except to love him. Love means genuinely speaking the Gospel truth with gentleness but with boldness. Weakness is being so passive and lukewarm, in fear of offence, to win the praises of worldly, lost men, instead of winning their souls for the glory of God, that it accomplishes nothing except worthless self glory and being spewed out by the Lord as vomit. I write this because I too have been guilty of also being lukewarm. Stay awake church, be sober and remain vigilant. You have just witnessed, in this very hour, one piece of the Great Apostasy. We are not going to be popular, we are not going to win friends. But we just might, one day in the Kingdom of Heaven, with all hope, meet one more saved brother or sister in Christ, whose name was written in the Lambs Book of Life, before the foundation of the world was laid. 🙏
The Bible does not lie.
You can not lean to your own
Understanding!!!
Pastors must Preach and teach the truth. Amen!
Stanley knows the "clobber" passages. And...?
Stupid things to say: Andy Stanley has a point !
Listening to Andy Stanley was absolutely sickening. Thank God John MacAuthur held up the truth of the Gospel. His Father should do the same.
Through God's grace,John MacAuthur is still with us because he is willing to tell us the truth, and I feel, his voice is so vital speaking out faithfully above the satanic lies that so many are bowing to.
Sitting across the desk of his father as a homeless person without him offering me a single dollar was sickening.
I wonder has JM ever corresponded privately and asked for a confidential conversation to talk, understand explain and plead with other brothers in the hope of helping them back to what he regards as the right path? Or is calling out in public his preferred method? BTW I'm no apologist for what I have heard of Stanley's incorrect teaching on the O.T. etc nor MacArthur's incorrect teaching on the Holy Spirit etc, but I'm concerned about the biblical way of relating to, correcting and restoring others. If Stanley refused such an offer that's one thing but if the offer has never been sincerely made...........? James 5:19-20 My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
All God wants is salvation for all. Staying in sin CANNOT bring us to Christ. This leads people to Hell. This is what Andy is doing. Praying for him and his congregation. Loving people is telling them the truth.
I wonder what Charles Stanley has to say about this. Nobody is taking away his/her church away Andy, in the first place it's not theirs.
I’m thankful that God didn’t answer the “cry of my heart” at ages 12, 13, and 14. I wanted cars I couldn’t drive and material items I couldn’t afford. It was called immaturity. I wanted the wrong things.
Just because God says, “No” to a request, is no reason to not worship Him later in life.
He doesn’t love the Gay … or he would be warning them that their sin is abomination to God … and that pattern of sin will keep them
Out of the Kingdom of God … if he truly loved them he would tell them… sounds like he just wants more people serving and giving to his church . 😢without REPENTANCE there is no salvation !
Exactly!!!!!!!
I miss his father Dr. Charles Stanley who was true servant of Christ. Andy is nothing like his father very sad.
He knows all these scriptures that condemn homosexuality but they are just something "intetesting to talk about" but refuses to actually speak them or talk about them except to dismissivly call them "clobber phrases" as if the bible condemns you to never know Christ if you ever did these things, which, of course, it doesn't. What Andy clearly doesn't want to discuss is that salvation requires repentance and you cant repent of a sin that you refuse to acknowledge is a sin. Clearly Andy does not acknowledge homosexuality as a sin when he talks about "gay christians" as if being gay is just as valid an idwntity as being christian. It is not any more than "serial killer christian" or "bank robber christian" would be. A christian is certainly capable of committing sin, but the difference is a christian acknowledges their sin and repents, a non christian does not repent but makes excuses and justifications or flat out refuses to acknowledge their sin as sin. That is exactly what Andy does with gay people and tries to shame people who call out the sin of homosexuality for the sin that it is. If you are an unrepentant gay person you should be ostracized in the church because the longer you are allowed to parade your sin without consequence and even be accepted as a brother or sister in Christ the more and worse sins will be allowed and tolerated in the church until all the real christians are gone and all thats left is apostate. This is how you get transgender "preachers" celebrating gay pride, child mutilation, abortion, and orgy affirming nuns from the pulpit.
This man is leading millions of souls to hell. We need to pray for them.
i remember a song that had in it: "sin is sin, & lies are lies.......and God does not accept your alibi's" . To obfuscate the need of Christ to go to the Cross to pay for sin, and then for the "Andy's" of the world to coddle the lgbt + + + with a faux approval as if from God, is a damnable heresy . Any "Andy" who diminishes sin, to grant ''acceptance'' of the LGBT ++++ is himself in danger of a judgment to his life. God made it clear that He is HOLY, and He does not change. Nor does He lower His standards, design, or view of sin.
IF .....if you are tasked with presenting Christ, be it on the street, or in a pulpit, you must present the complete TRUTH about He who is the Light of the world.
I could not put it better than Acts 26:18 our task "to open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me (Christ)(Gods commission to Paul)
I’m speechless ….
I am so proud for Andy Stanley for his courage and showing Jesus’ loving character !
You’re not proud of his courage because there is none, only cowardice. You heap praise because he affirms your sin.
What sin of mine do you think he’s affirming by? You’re obviously clueless
Everything Andy is saying makes me want to take his lunch money and give him an atomic theological wedgie
Feel I disagree,, but that was 😆
This is unbelievable how can anyone take what God condemns and by their own concocted teachings change that!
Come, LORD Jesus!!
So thankful to Almighty God for Pastor/True Shepard John MacArthur standing against that which is is contrary to sound doctrine, and what is sin that is stated in the Bible. We need true Pastors and Shepherds that, are not wolves in sheep's clothing!
Andy is lost just like Rick Warren-the Bible calls them wolves in Sheeps clothing.
The men and women out there who are gay don't have any faith because if they had any faith they wouldn't be gay anymore. The pastor's job is to offend people. Its job is to talk about issues and problems that are not comfortable to listen to. Not talking about those issues is not loving and it's not doing the Lord's work. If gay people don't want to come to a Christian church because they don't like hearing that what their living is a sin then so be it. Only the holy spirit is capable of saving them.
He's trying to be hip, but is failing miserably. He needs to listen to Becket Cook... who is out of that lifestyle now. 😉
Wow, one whole example!
@@jefaljone there are more... 😉
@@lee-lee2418 Everyone knows that, Hermione. 🙄
@@jefaljone don't know who u are referencing Felix, but you are now being muted so don't bother replying. I hope you find rescue and peace rom judgmental attitude. Enjoy your day 😁
I had a close family member "come out" to me. My immediate response was to give them the gospel, not to comfort them in their sin.
He said the next generation figured it out...
Acceptance of sin
Andy Stanley is condemning people to hell!
How do you spell Heretic? ....A N D Y S. T. A. N. L. E. Y.
We will never convince sinners, by our niceness, or by our “acceptance” of them, to come to Christ. Those who come to Christ are “drawn” to Jesus by God, the Father. They can only come if He “grants” them the grace to come. [Jn. 6:37-39, 44-45, 65].
