- By: Alistair Begg || Preached November 20, 2019 - (1 Corinthians 1:18-31) While most people would agree that our world is broken, they may not agree about how to fix it. The only solution, Alistair Begg clarifies, is found in the execution of an innocent man: Jesus, the Son of God. We must continue to proclaim the message of Christ’s death on the cross both to ourselves and to others, as it establishes the gravity of the human condition, reveals God’s wonder and grace, and offers hope for all of time.

I am Chinese. By the grace of God, I received Jesus as my Lord and Savior at age 42 19 years ago. I read the Holy Bible and pray to the Lord daily. I now have true peace, joy and the assurance of salvation. Hallelujah. Thanks be to the Lord my God and Savior Jesus Christ.
Amen. The peace that's impossible to exist except through Christ. We are blessed ❤❤❤
Glad to hear it. Hope to meet you in eternity.
"The Man on the middle cross said I can come"...goosbumps intensifies!!
Amen!
Yes that's my ONLY REASON when I stand at "THE JUDGEMENT". "The MAN in THE MIDDLE said COME. For NOW (temporarily) my "goal" is to FOLLOW HIM and tell OTHERS ABOUT HIM.
Me too!
Goosebumps and tears for me
Amen…Amen…. Amen!!!
In times of discouragement and exhaustion from life and ministry, I come back to this sermon time and time again! Praise God for Alistair Begg and the mighty work of God through him

It struck me how much I needed to personalize this. How this is my heart's cry. As such, my personalized version follows...

The Message of The Cross is the only message that should be preached.
Because the Man on the middle cross said I could come. Thank You Lord Jesus.
"The man on the middle cross said I could come." The greatest truth told in the greatest preacher story ever.
Oh how this preacher has fallen from grace 😢
@@CowboyFantastic007make sure you remember what you just said, because Alastair’s saviour will ask you what you meant with what you said!
@@wernerklotz8207 well Alastair’s theology seems to think a gay wedding is a good thing to love which is completely contrary to the Sacred Scriptures. And I no longer listen to this progressive liberal preacher because he refuses to repent of his blasphemy.
So glad for the man in the middle because God has chosen nothing but shit for me
@@carolyngreving5044 are you a believer?
The man on the middle cross said I can come......❤
I would tell them, "I am with Him." or Jesus would say, "He is with me."
The knowledge and feeling of that breaks me to joy tears. I can literally hear him say. Hey Angel, he is on me. Alex is with me. Don't bother him. Come on Alex Gift Ngabonziza. Walk through
Hallelujah!!
This is one of the greatest message of the cross I’ve heard in my life. I can hear it again and again
Amen and Amen.
Love this guys voice and love the message man!!! He kills it
To God be the glory
Stuart Maiden in The Bobby Jones movie. Was at the Baptist Church in Hamilton Scotland. Fantastic preacher 🙏
This message got me deeply thinking. I can't listen to it enough. I have had to share it several times.
My beloved Dad always preached the Gospel and the power of the cross. What a Saviour we have.
Praise God HALLELUJAH!!!
I can’t listen to this message without the tears flowing.
His mercy and Grace reminds me that it is all of God, and I have nothing to bring but my sin.
"...The Man on the middle Cross said I can come..."
It’s 2:57 am and I am still up with this wonderful and Christ-loving and exalting sermon! I pray God’s grace would continue to lead you, sir.
4:50 am. Still up. Listening.
The clock has no power over the Word Of God.
Apparently, you never matured.
2:59 AM and I am up listening to this amazing sermon
It’s only 40 minutes 😂
Tears insist on coming down in several moments of this sermon. This is the heavenly and wholesome emotion that breaks our hearts so they can be put together by God's truth.
Amen
Gospel touched ye… order caused those tears… truth still setting folks free indeed ⚔️🎯⚔️
Praise God for this message. On Christ alone we stand.

I'm not a calvinist, but I sure love this guy's preaching/teaching. He stays focused on Christ alone.
Read Romans 9 my friend
@@rangoman1815 for israel and btw you dont need to be a calvinist to be saved and john calvin is not our savior and no where we need to be theologically perfect but only have the saving faith on Christ. Just read the bible in your hands and let the words of Christ abide and dwell in you till death separates.
@@israelisthechosen George Whitefield said, "We are all born Arminians." It is grace that turns us into Calvinists. (Charles Spurgeon, Sermons, Vol. 2, p. 124).
Calvinism did not spring from Calvin. We believe that it sprang from the great Founder of all truth. (Charles Spurgeon, Sermons, Vol. 7, p. 298).
My friend as a believer in Christ we must abide in the knowledge of the truth written in the Bible, it's not about theological perfection but knowing God in much better sense...it's the same attitude that has destroyed churches in India and abroad by heretical and blasphemous practices...it's easy to dismiss the Biblical truths as "Calvinist" but it's another to read and understand the scripture...read Romans 9 bro
@@rangoman1815 i just refuse to call my self calvinist or belong to that denomination because im a christ follower. Unfortunately spurgeon and calvin are fallible and had taught some unbiblical teachings however they stood strong in the essentials so they are not heretics. I want to stay biblical and not belong to any man made doctrines by philosophies. These two are philosophies.
Calvin said we are not made equal. He didnt believe we all are made in the image of God i suppose.
The Living God is a God who saves even today till the revelation of His Son.
Amen
@@israelisthechosen good for you
The Man on the middle Cross, said I can come...... That's the only answer. Amen!!
Sheesh that hit!!!
Jesus was in the middle the thrives were on his sides. The theif that was accepted Said " stop mocking this man he is innocent, we are theives and this is our punishment, Lord Lord will you please remember me when you get to your kingdom"? Jesus said " I will see you later today in paradise." The theif repented and confessed his sins then put faith in Jesus by calling him Lord and his faith that he had his own kindom". Jesus knows the heart. Not everyone that calls Jesus Lord will be saved. Jesus himself said many will come before me on the day of judgement and I will tell them to turn away from and they will say but Lird we prophecied in your name and cast demons out in your name. Jesus will say you can't come in for I never knew you. Jesus also said the Lukewarm won't get in.
I could listen to that all day.
@@emt513 The Love of Christ compels Us! Amen 🙏
Let me get my supervisor
“The Man on the middle cross said I can come.” 🥹😭❤️ ✝️
Praise the Lord for those like Alistair who proclaim the truth
What an absolute Godly message.
Love to see more joyful faces behind him.......
“Today you will be with Me in Paradise” Luke 23:43 …”The Man on the Middle Cross” has all one needs….✝️🙏📖👑⭐️❤️ Thank You Lord. Amen
This is what a message sounds like
sent directly by GOD spoken by a true believer to feed our hearts & souls.
We cannot earn it, we don’t deserve it it can only be given by Jesus Amen
That Wonderful Cross. Thank you Jesus for dying for us.
It's all about Jesus. It has always been and it will always be.
Amen and amen to that☀☺
Indeed Brother. What a love, what a cost
Amen and amen! What a timeless message that I needed to hear today.
Gods Merceful Grace, has saved me. Lord Jesus Christ, loved me that much!
Thank you my Heavenly Father ❤
Jesus! God Saves! Salvation!
I used to listen to Alistair during my hour drive each way to work. I'm retired now and had not heard him for quite awhile. It is indeed a blessing to hear him once more
same! I listen to him regularly while driving to work.
fortunately you have catchup time..wish I had 2 heads, for eyes and 4 ears..what an extraordinary preacher of THE TRUTH..GOD PLUS NO ONE
Hes good
I did the same!!!
Me too!
सत्यमेव जयते 🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏
What an amazing message. I could listen to him preach Jesus all day long.
Agreed.
Amen love the way you said it
Bbn
This is, by far, one of the most stirring sermons I've ever listened to. The Lord has done a wonderful thing in Alistair Begg.
Thank you Alistair for this wonderful message! It has inspired me and I shared this message and it has truly blessed my mom. Praise the Lord!
Still my favorite sermon as the explanation of the cross is so clear and beautiful. ❤️
28:35 - My grandfather was a pastor for 50 years, and I watched him, week after week after week agonize over what he was to preach to his congregation. He was terrified and filled with the spirit at once. Pastor Begg put that beautiful observation of my youth into words.
So I'll cherish, The Old Rugged Cross🙏❤
"The Man on the middle cross said I can come" Glory to God
What a message of the cross! One of the best I have ever heard 🙌🏾
The cross needs to be preach from every pulpit in every sermon, it’s the message of God’s love for mankind!
One of the greatest sermons ever preached by any man.
Tears of joy when he says the man on the middle cross said i can come
Thank you Jesus for your victory at the Cross.Praise God,Halellujah and Amen!!
Message of the cross is the true gospel From Genisis to revelation
"The message of the Cross establishes the gravity of sin.
That hit home with me. 🙌
The message of the cross yet so vital in our life has been kept under the bed in present time.
This is so awesome! Came across a short clip on Instagram then I came here for the full video. I've never had the message of the cross preached in this direction before. God is good! Thank you for reminding us in this manner. ❤
Me too
Amen!
Me three!
@@phoebemwaniki8298 Me three!
At 33:44 the dude behind Alistair is realizing that he enjoys Alistair’s explanation only to drop his smile to a certain consciousness. Brother, keep the truth in your heart showing on your face!
One of the most beautiful descriptions of the cross I have ever heard I hope this plays often and long
Definitely a preachers preacher, a man for such a time as this…
I listen to this again and again. it reminds me of that which is of greatest importance and refreshes my first love.
Thank you pastor. To God be the glory. Please Lord , increase our faith, and take away our fears.
Hi there

I can love God, talk with God, know God. Jesus overcame death, the world, Miracle. Jesus, the Holy of all Holy. I have a friend in Jesus:
excellent preaching - inspired
I’ve listened to this sermon more than 6 times now and each time I do, there is a new line that just leaps out and hits home. I could listen to it daily🙏🙏
Glad you brought this up. I need to listen to his messages several times because he preaches to man's intellect and is deep in his theology. So different from the Charismatics--
I also often listen to this message.
Thankyou for this incredibly humbling message of the Cross ! So good to hear such solid preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ our Lord amen
When you hear a sermon that really enters your heart, you must share it! You must!
My grandma was Scottish from Peebles. Born in Muscleburgh. She had a great faith too in Christ. God's message has come through many Scottish preachers. Amen.
Indeed, Alistair, Colin Smith and Sinclair Ferguson right off the top of my head.
In the Blood… on down the genome…⚔️🎯⚔️
What an incredible message!!! TY for posting it online
I can eat the words of the Gospel every day
Every time I hear these words, “The man on the middle cross said I could come,” I get choked up.
What a Great Savior we have!
I am always stunned and greatly humbled each and every time I hear you speak about the Cross. You have been given a mighty gift by God and I appreciate your straightforward approach and your truthfulness in each sermon. May God continue to bless you and keep you and yours safe and secure in this world until you enter into His arms in the next.
Anointed there is no doubt.
A powerful presentation of the truth that only Yeshua/ Jesus can deal with mankind 's biggest problem - the sin within.
Thank you, so beautiful, explained eloquently.
God nlese
I love thinking outside of the box Praise God for his amazing saving grace.
There is indeed great power from the Cross as Jesus died for us.
That was one of the best sermons I ever heard heard Allister begg preach
Susanna Blanchard, I absolutely agree to that, while he enriches me and many others every week, especially since the pandemic has kept us in each Sunday for most the last 12 months, with few breaks in what governments have allowed. I hope many will seek "Parkside Church, Ohio" on RUclips, as well as go back to an in-person church.
While I follow him regularly during the week and on Sundays this just seem to be such an absolutely clear message. It was very balanced and did not stir up the usual fear in my heart related to some of the other reformed pastors thatI have listened to. Breath of fresh clean air.
@@susannablanchard1770 Yes, indeed. Authoritative without being authoritarian about it. Quite humble regarding the preacher's role in salvation.
@@paulwilson4738 you
My thoughts exactly. No sugar coating from Alistair!👍🏻
What a way to preach the power of the cross to yourself and to others as well.
One of the great messages of all time. Don't miss this. Take notes.
Certainly, one of the best I've heard. Beautiful.
Wow! Amen, amen, and amen 🙌🏾🙌🏾
This is a powerful,incredible message from the anointing of God through his servant Alistair
The best sermon I have ever heard.
...and whoever comes to me I will in no way cast out.. wonderful grace.
Never tire of hearing or reading the doctrine of Christ on the Cross, it feels new every time, proof indeed that it's divinely written, Also that sentence the man on the middle cross said I can come in is a great comforter.
Probably one of the most riveting sermons I have ever listened to , truly God inspired 🙏🏻
Wonderful sermon! Soli Deo Gloria!!!
What pray tell, does that mean? Glory to God?
@@alfredoreliford3329 glory to God alone
Thank you Father for this
The Cross shows us who we are & how to understand life. Our future is wonderful because of God's plan. All praise to the One who changes us.
Great message of the cross. Thank you.
Amazing Words of Life. Beautiful Words, Wonderful Words, Words for Life.
Tears come out by this sermon, God what a grace you have bestowed to us in your Son Jesus Christ. Thank you Holy Spirit for reminding us about Jesus our love
Thank you.
The Jesus of history is the LORD of glory! Praise to the Holy One of Israel! Thank you Pastor Begg.
