Years and years of deep suffering. Yet my problems are small compared to others. I was molested as a toddler so many of my issues stem from that. Marital problems, mental problems, childlessness, benzo withdrawal, family estrangment. I asked God many times why, I have begged and pleaded, gotten angry, lots of tears but no answer until now. I am still and I know who My God is and embrace His Will over my life. I pray one day I can embrace suffering with a smile with the knowing that the beginning middle and end of suffering there is still His Grace for me and I am not a burden.
I went through so much chaos, trauma, neglect abuse. It has been so hard, taken years!! But through counseling-which I still go-, small group through my church, AA-truly forgiving and making amends, I am free today!!! I still have had physical issues for years! But I feel SO close to Abba! Watching the chosen, pastor/counselors John Eldredge and Henry Cloud have helped me SOOO much!!! Also Lisa Harper, Joyce Meyer-who went through sexual abuse as well- has helped so much! We can't do this alone!!!❤️🙏❤️
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Always be joyful. Pray regularly. In everything give thanks, for this is what God wants from you who are united with the Messiah Yeshua.
You made a decision - you and Thelma and the family to leave me in Colorado, so Jack I don’t know what protection from God to declare on myself. Psalm 91 is what I’m going with now. Shalom and goodnight
God is a God of love. He reaches out to Satan because God accepts Satan where he is at in the situation. Why because God loves Satan and seeks his redemption. Not because of who Satan is. It because of who God is. He reaches even for those who others seem irredeemable. Why does God ask Satan from where do you come? God is all knowing . Satan is trying to prove to God that man is not worthy of Gods love. God loves us. No matter where we are coming from. Because God is love personified.
Excellent sermon on Job, however, what you said at the end about..."when we suffer, even though we have done nothing to bring it on ourselves..."is not always the case. Our suffering can also come about from not following the teachings of Christ and living a life of hedonism. If we succumb to the passions of this world such as gluttony, vanity, lust, and so on, we will surely suffer. This is why Christ said deny yourself and follow me. Our cross is to fight the worldly passions and become more like Christ through Holy Communion, prayer, fasting and studying the the Holy Scriptures, lives of the Saints and Church Fathers. Many people in this world have an even greater cross to bare but for many of us who are not suffering physical persecution the devil will try to break us through worldly temptations. May Jesus Christ give us strength to follow in His footsteps🙏
I'm always going to see this person as a con artist. When I found out he was living in a luxury condo on Roosevelt Island I realized he was a con-artist. No different from a Rick Warren or Joel Osteen.
You are being envious of his success and wealth and the good things he do. Pastor Tim never did prosperity preaching, he never told you to follow his teachings to achieve success or be as successful like him.
@@lofu32 Not at all. I've been around certain parts of the US where I know Christianity is prevalent. It's the whole country to be frank. So you can take advantage of gullible Christian religious people.

Thanks to God for using Tim to bring the truth about why we suffer.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Always be joyful. Pray regularly. In everything give thanks, for this is what God wants from you who are united with the Messiah Yeshua.
Hope to see you my brother as soon as possible, according to the will our heavenly father.
You made a decision - you and Thelma and the family to leave me in Colorado, so Jack I don’t know what protection from God to declare on myself. Psalm 91 is what I’m going with now. Shalom and goodnight
Wow VERY TRUTHFUL, but Painful!!!❤
I thought this was an interview, and that Keller was literally sitting there like a mannequin during the Scripture reading.
God is a God of love. He reaches out to Satan because God accepts Satan where he is at in the situation. Why because God loves Satan and seeks his redemption. Not because of who Satan is.

God will hear your pray. Bless you!
I think Tim assumed in this context that this was implied
An age old story and subject. Nothing original with an age-old answer. There was nothing new with this person. And he made a buck.
I'm always going to see this person as a con artist. When I found out he was living in a luxury condo on Roosevelt Island I realized he was a con-artist. No different from a Rick Warren or Joel Osteen.

I will see you soon Tim.
