God used His word in this sermon to save me. Indeed "The law of the Lord is perfect converting the soul." I realized I hadn't repented. God showed me my need for the Savior by His word preached faithfully by Ray Comfort. Ray you are a great blessing.
Amen brother. it's by Gods grace that you are saved by the convicting power of the Holy Spirit to seek true repentance and obediance to Christ. God has granted Ray much wisdom so blessed to see sermons like this. God bless you bro glad you got saved!
Amen. Same here. After hearing another sermon from Ray, I fell to my knees with tears in my eyes. I have justified my sin, my divorce, etc. and was completely DECEIVED!! Thank you Ray. Please pray for those that are hearing this message!! Thanks Tom!
I have heard thousands of sermons in my life. This is the one sermon that I will never forget. It is the sermon God used to make me His, to save me. Thanks Ray.
I was saved a long time ago. I didn't really realize it. I'm not even sure if it took and I had zero assurance until I started watching Ray Comfort Just Witnessing. While watching him witness I came to contrition and was assured in my salvation and I caught on fire for The Word of God and for evangelism. Thank God for Ray Comfort and these methods that he's exposited from scripture.
I've been praying for courage and wisdom in order to share the Gospel more. I feel so privileged and blessed to have come across this video. I can't believe only 112k people have watched this and there's 7+ billion people on the planet. Thank you Ray for your teachings and perseverance.
I thank God of letting me to see this video, to know that i was one of those false converts. But God is not finish on me yet. Thank you Lord JESUS Christ.
I agree. Presching that "prosperity message" isn't just a sin for the selfish preachers who use it, it's extremely dangerous to all the poor folks who fall for it. I have a Jewish friend who "became a christian" through Joel Olstein's preaching and, years later, is more lost and alone than ever.
@@electricslideshow I’m very sorry to hear that; those false teachers will face great judgment from God. It’s sick & disgusting as they prey on & manipulate so many desperate people. But it’s also an indictment on those who fall for it, for they do not read or study the Word of God for themselves.
I “knew” Ray before he was popular. We met a few times and we use to email back and forth. He was a great guy then and he hasn’t changed. I like Ray Comfort and I believe his message has been a gift to us from the Lord. I value his heart and he has helped many people by equipping them to be confident to be an effective witness for Christ. Thanks Ray!
@@kingdomrunt I'm sorry but this is not true at all and not biblical. Everyone I have ever talked to who is not saved (and half the ones that are) think god is a big ball of love and doesn't mind what they do. People understand grace because they continue to live in perpetual sin, never changing their behaviours to become more like Christ. Jude 1:22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: Others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Ray, watching your videos has helped me in my struggle of doubting god. Doubting his love and grace and existence. Now I am driven to learn about the teachings of Jesus and I have cried out to him and had faith he will save me from death. Thank you.
I love Ray comforts way of looking at things ! I understand now Jesus came to die for my sins thus I need to repent of my sins and put my trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and savior ! Thank you so much for all your help and evangelism. ! And even though I don't know you for your mentorship and you're challenging us to do the right thing ! And you are correct it is Hell's best kept secret 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@jedimasterham2 he's said many times that repentance is not what saves, he uses the Judge in a court analogy for that, it's just that you can't say you're saved but keep sinning intentionally, your faith is not saving if so. When you believe in Christ it will change you but it's Christ that will save, God will not save those who continue in their sin intentionally, you're either with God or with sin, if the Son therefore sets you free then you are Free indeed from sin
Oh my goodness! I so NEEDED this!!!! Thank you 🙏!!! God is speaking through you! I have been doing street evangelism for 40 years now but all wrong. Oh my Lord Jesus Christ, please forgive me. Brother Ray Comfort thank you!
The truths of this teaching was the missing key that helped me truly understand my sin and grace. I was one that was questioning my salvation and feeling guilty because "a good christian does not question their faith - that is a lack of faith." Now I know that it was right to question and now, through the scriptures that Ray talked about, I now have the assurance that I had always heard about but never truly had in my heart.
Allow me to assert that YOUR COMMENT is proof of God answering prayers, as just this morning I watched a video where RayConfort reveals that he routinely prayed to God for wisdom to aid in his evangelism. Done. Tetelestai. Blessings ❤
I was watching this last night and as soon as it got to 16:55, I got so distracted by the time I was done being distracted I had to go to sleep. Praise the Lord I woke up and was able to watch this video!
Thank you thank you thank you!! I have shared this over social media with the scriptures included ❤Thank you Almighty God for showing me mercy when I deserve Your wrath. I praise You Almighty God and surrender this life to You
Thank You Lord for the way You have and are using Ray to bring the Truth of Your Word to those who are lost. Showing Your Holy Law and how we have all broken it.
It's been at least a decade since I drove Ray all over town the day of his evening message, and I recall how we had a "spirited" discussion and much of it was rather debate-filled. I recall feeling complimented when he said to me, "I haven't thought of it in that light, but I will have to give that more thought" with reference to some of the Gospel message and how far reaching is it's application. I always loved Ray's humorous saying, *"God doesn't believe in atheists"* in fact, I believe it's the title of one of his books.
Many people who want to only preach grace I would say I never knew the true grace of god’s grace without knowing my wretched sin towards a holy holy god
Oh wow Ray Comfort. I praise God for you. You are really helping us. May God bless you. I will definitely share these things with others. Watching from Africa, Zambia.
I cried really hard at the ending cause I've been using God's name in vain and been blasphemous....I just pray that the Lord will forgive me of this great sin.😭❤
Yes He will, Jesus says I don’t condemn you, go and sin no more. When we see the sin, then we are told to stop, by His help. We might slip up, but we don’t practice sin any longer. But we continually lay down our old ways pick up our cross and follow Christ, turning from our way to Gods Way.
Understanding leads to knowledge and wisdom is putting that knowledge of the lord into practice or action very profound wisdom in this teaching let us in the body of Christ put it into action
Now those are spiritual statements - the poor in spirit, the broken hearted are the contrite ones, those who are mourning those who know they are sinners, the captives those who Satan has taken captive to do his will, the blind those who the God of this world has blinded their eyes.
Hardly so. He's got a false gospel. All the Bible says is believe on Jesus work on the cross. This guy adds works and repentance. Read the Bible yourself and don't listen to this man who takes verses out of context which disrupts their meaning.
unfortunately ..... what do you need Jesus for? He saves you from ???? Why???? YOU need to reread the BIBLE and in context ....... read what God says around the verses that you quote. Understand who is talking and who is being talked to. YOU Sean unfortunately break the "Not changing the Word" by taking away. HE said not to add or take away from His Word .. one jot or tittle. AND in this you do ere......... So one example..... why did Jesus say "Go and sin no more" ???
@loriworkman5127 so many gloss over the prayer of repentance that Solomon prays over his people when he finished building the temple. It basically explains how God views repentance. And it includes to live a life of obeying the ten commandments, which another way to put it is turn from sin. When people say repentance is a work you rely on works to be saved. Ask them do you try to obey the ten commandments? They'll either say no or yes and if they say no they admit to not loving God with all heart mind soul and strength. And if they say yes, that means they have turned from sin and are repenting
If I approach an impenitent sinner someone who's understanding is darkened and say Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins it will be foolishness to him and offensive to him. Foolishness because it won't make sense the Bible says that the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness. And also offensive because I'm insinuating that he's a sinner when he doesn't think he is. As far as he's concerned there are plenty of people far worse than he is. But if I take the time to follow in the footsteps of Jesus and open up the divine law the 10 commandments and show the sinner precisely what he's done wrong he has offended God by violating his law The when he becomes as James says convinced of the law as a transgressor the good news of the fine being paid for him will not be foolishness it will not be offensive it will be the power of God unto salvation
19 Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so that every mouth may be closed and all the world may become accountable to God; 20 because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin. Justification by Faith (Romans 3:19, NASB)
America has accepted the premise of humanism. That man is basically good but for him being a victim of his circumstances instead of realizing that he is utterly depraved, born into sin and in desperate need of a Savior in his standing before God. Ray your message reminds me of Jonathan Edwards’ “Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God”. Hopefully it will be just as effective in bringing men to the knowledge of their need for a Savior.
Biblical evangelism is always without question, law to the proud and grace to the humble. Never will you see Jesus giving the Gospel, the good news, the cross, to grace of our God to a proud arrogant self righteous person. Now with the law it breaks the hard heart, with the Gospel he heals the broken heart. Why? Because he always did those things that pleased the father. God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. The scripture says that everyone who is proud of heart is an abomination to the Lord. Jesus told us in the Gospel the spirit of the Lord is upon because he has anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor, the broken hearted, the captives and the blind.
I am still stuck with and appalled by the fact that only 1% of Christians really evangelize! I want to do that very much, and this desire has grown tremendously because of the fact that seek to "finish well" in this life. I also wish to remain obedient to "go and make disciples," to which we should all contemplate various methods by which to do so with the greatest effect. Let us keep as our greatest prayer to be used most effectively to serve the Lord which we love. And let us love our brethren!
Book of Jude says some come by compassion and some by FEAR!!! I came to Jesus by both..Preaching Hell should be preached more than ever amidst this grace only doctrine..Jonathan Edwards, Sinners in the hands of an angry God..Hear that.
Now I'll be careful to say that it's by faith and faith comes first. God doesn't strike us to believe and then we believe. Salvation does not come before faith. 39:00 he is dancing very close to that calvinist thought and it's false. But he is right that the law will open their ears and eyes.
Having listened at minute 6:34 about Galatians 3:24; Ray quotes "schoolmaster" that is in KJV, not "tutor" NKJV. Maybe the 'Evidence Bible' should come in KJV since it was good enough for Ray's start.
It used to come in KJV, I have a leather bound copy at home. You can still get a copy from eBay, just search for “The Evidence Bible, Comfortable King James Version”
Proverbs 28:1 The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion. Luke 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Some good points except Jesus didn't say go and make converts. He said to go and make disciples. Not following up is like not feeding a baby because it's born. I did my part. I don't have to keep it alive. Many new converts face unnecessary hurdles due to a lack of discipleship. Some even get entrapped by cults for a while. I've heard preachers say not to worry so much about getting them saved. Get them lost & they'll seek out how to get saved. I agree with giving the law and the gospel, but Christ established the church for us to grow. New converts need to get in a good Bible believing church.
This is the best way of preparing the ground for the seed of god’s word thier won’t be another Franklin graham in our generation in his thier was already a fear of the lord and the fields were ripe for The harvest this method has a supernatural way of preparing the ground tilling it for seed of god’s word
Jesus says repent of your sins and trust in him that he died on the cross for are sin to give eternal life in hevan. Thank god for the cross I dont have to go to hell!
ROMANS 1:18-32 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
When Ray comfort said that we are condemned already, is this before the law is shown to us or after? cause i remember being taught that those who are only shown the word of God and reject go to hell... not those who havent heard of it yet. what are your thoughts?
@@paragon84 thank you :) makes sense now, its for those who supress the truth in unrightousness. So those who havent heard the truth have a chance to hear the truth
@@christiandanario no man is innocent, and God is Holy Holy Holy! If there was a innocent man who never heard of Jesus he’d be in heaven. But that’ll never be. It may not make sense to us, but even those who never heard and die die in sin. If it feels wrong, good! Go and evangelize and spread the good news!
The one and only part that throws me off about this is the 4th commandment. I never hear Ray say that he keeps the Sabbath. What do we do with the 4th commandment as new testament Christians?? Should we keep the other 9 and break one? Sincere question.
UriYah Ysrayl Because Jesus didn't. In fact, the NT says we are free from Sabbath keeping. It was only God's covenant with Israel. But all the other commandments are repeated to Christians.
+UriYah Ysrayl The law existed long before the 10 commandments were given to Moses. It is the knowledge of good and evil. It's in everyone. All have sinned, even those who had not the "law" that was given unto Israel. Gentiles are judged according to the law in their hearts. Just like Noah, Abraham, Isaac.... who were justified by faith. Read Romans chapter 4. You can ask anyone if they have ever done something they know they should not have done, by the conviction of their own heart. That is a sin, and sin is against God, and the wages of sin is death. The commandments were given to lead our hearts to God, but man failed to obtain righteousness this way because it was all outwardly. Jesus clarified that even though you may have not slept with your neighbors wife, but you thought about it, then you have already committed the sin in your heart. Romans 2:14 14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves Mark 2:27 - And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Romans 3:20-31 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. 21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. 29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: 30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith. 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law. Romans 10:3-4 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
Ray says that he rests one day a week. He does not hold that it has to be the last day of the week. He does advise that it is not Sunday as that is a very busy day for Christians and is not always restful, but he leaves it to each person's conscience. As did Jesus who never instructed us to keep the Sabbath but pushed back against the Pharisaical legalism around the Sabbath. And the Epistles go further and also don't instruct us to keep the Sabbath but tell us that days don't matter and even that our rest in in Christ, not the Sabbath. One could even say ever day is Sabbath, in Christ! Hebrews 3 and 4 are excellent passages for this. Also check out Colossians 2. And Romans 13. The Ten Commandments were part of the Covenant with the nation of Israel. They are not binding on us. We are bound to Christ. There is nothing in scripture that binds us to the Sabbath.
But it's such a complex answer! One of the things Jesus was accused of during his earthly ministry was breaking the 4th commandment. Jesus repeated 9 of the 10 commandments...except the 4th commandment. The Bible says that the sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath. But is Sabbath a "law" thing? Sabbath exists even in a perfect world like the garden of Eden, so it predates the "law" given to Moses and Israel. But, as some have pointed out, we are not saved by "keeping the other 9 and breaking one" and we are not saved by "keeping all 10". Paul wrote that the law never paid for anyone's sins. We are saved by the sacrifice of Jesus. Personally (and this is not specifically stated in the Bible, so this is just an "my opinion" thing), sabbath keeping is a very easily misused topic. "Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy" does NOT mean I can go though a list of all the things that I give up for one day a week and then compare it to someone else's list, whether to make myself feel like a great Christian or to make the other person feel like a not-so-good Christian.
Rushia W Yah you got it. People can really forget what Shabbat actually is. Genesis 2:1-3 [1] Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. [2] And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. [3] And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. Jesus warned to beware the leaven of the Pharisees. It wasn’t that Jesus did not keep the Shabbat, it was that he kept it the way it was intended to be kept. The Pharisees added all these other rules on top of God’s law and corrupted it. In contrast, Jesus is incorruptible! We need to remember that God created everything. We need to rest from work and honor God. To remember that all of the pursuits of this life are meaningless compared to God’s glory and purpose. As long as you are doing the will of the Father then you are not breaking Shabbat because you are honoring and remembering God. John 5:16-17 [16] And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. [17] But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. If Ray wants to preach 7 days a week, 24 hours a day then amen! He is doing the work of the Father. Jesus being the fulfillment of the law is in the fact that when he enters your heart he reveals the purpose of the law to you, that we can fulfill God’s purpose in giving us that law. That our hearts would be completely turned to God. So that we obey not out of obligation but out of supplication. The meanings of the law that so many overlooked. We obtain righteousness through our faith in the blood of the passover Lamb. Not in trying to follow the rule of law but the rule of the love of God in our hearts. That’s why the 2 greatest commandments that Jesus gave were to love God with everything you got, and then to love your neighbors in like manner. Matthew 25:34-40 [34] Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: [35] For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: [36] Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. [37] Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee ? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? [38] When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee ? [39] Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? [40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
No. It is using the law to prepare people to hear the good news. If you try to give someone a cure for a disease, when they don't know that they are sick, they will think you are crazy. Same thing with people that don't know that they are sinners. You use the law to convict, so they understand that we are all sinners and why we need Jesus. That way they will grab on to the cure, the good news, and understand why they need Jesus
@@jedimasterham2 he does not teach works. He says we can't do anything to earn salvation. When he asks people what they think they need to do and they say repent or say sorry, he says that won't do anything. He often compares it to a judge and someone telling the judge they are really sorry for murdering. If you think he teaches work, you either aren't listening or misunderstood. There are signs of a true conversion. Repentance and godly sorrow for our sins is a sign of salvation. It's putting our trust in Jesus that saves us. Repentance and asking for forgiveness doesn't save us. They are just some of the signs of what happens when someone is born again. Many times the Bible talks about repentance. John the Baptist taught repent and be baptized. the Bible also talks about testing yourself to see if you are in the faith. It also says even the demons believe in Jesus and shudder. Someone who truly is saved will be born again. God gives them a new heart. They will begin to love righteousness and hate sin. They will no longer live in sin. Someone who says they believe in Jesus but continues to live in darkness night not truly be saved. That's why the Bible says to see if you are in the faith. Only Jesus saves, but if you truly are saved there will be signs that follow
@@jedimasterham2 you should talk to the hundreds and probably thousands of people that God used him to lead to Jesus and that are now saved. They would have something different to say about saying he causes harm. Also, all of the thousands of people that he had helped to share the gospel and all of the people that are now born again because of that. How many people has God used to lead to Jesus? You don't have to answer. Ray doesn't need me to defend me. He has helped so many people. You should really pray about what you are saying and ask God to reveal the truth and give you discernment
@@jedimasterham2 I do pay attention to his videos. You should pray and ask God to give you true discernment. I took his basic training course. He doesn't teach anything that isn't in the Bible. Sadly, so many people live their sin and they want to make excuses for sinning. The Bible is clear, if you willingly sin after knowing Christ there no longer remains a sacrifice . Will we never sin, of course not. But we will no longer live in sin. But you have a blessed day. I do pray that you truly are saved and that God shows you the truth. If he preaches a false gospel, then the Bible is wrong. So is John MacArthur, Todd friel, Steven lawson. Also, Paul Washer. They are share the Bible. The gospel . But I'm not going to continue to waste my time on you tube comments. Have a blessed day
sorry you are so gullible and are owned by the mass that doesn't even care about you. You can go to your mom and dad and tell them that they aren't your mom and dad.?.?.? You can keep telling God .............. that HE didn't make you.......... that He is not making your heart to beat..... that HE is choosing to give you your next breath?>?>?>? Sorry ....... thoughts
+Fright Nick God sends you to Hell because you've broken God's Law. Good is just, so He must punish sin. Jesus said Hell was not made for man but for the Devil and his angels. Good is also merciful, loving and kind, and relents in doing harm. So how does a just Good forgive guilty Law breakers and still be just? Good so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For Good did not send His Soon into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved. For He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement for our peace was upon Him and by His stripes we are healed. He who knew no sin became sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. You did the crime, Jesus paid your fine in His life's blood. If you repent of your sin and trust in His Son, Good will remit your sins and grant you everlasting life.
God didn't make us weak or imperfect. Genesis tells us that He saw all that He had made and said it was very good. Through one man sin entered the world and death through sin, thus death spread to all men for all have sinned
Adam was given free will. God made a living sacrifice to atone for the rebellious race by sending Jesus Christ to pay the fine for us. God does not tempt with evil. Hell was made for the Devil and his angels, not for man, Jesus said. Are you going to refuse God's gift of salvation? Repent and believe the Gospel and God will forgive your sin and grant you everlasting life

God used His word in this sermon to save me. Indeed "The law of the Lord is perfect converting the soul." I realized I hadn't repented. God showed me my need for the Savior by His word preached faithfully by Ray Comfort. Ray you are a great blessing.
Amen brother. it's by Gods grace that you are saved by the convicting power of the Holy Spirit to seek true repentance and obediance to Christ. God has granted Ray much wisdom so blessed to see sermons like this. God bless you bro glad you got saved!
Amen. Same here. After hearing another sermon from Ray, I fell to my knees with tears in my eyes. I have justified my sin, my divorce, etc. and was completely DECEIVED!! Thank you Ray. Please pray for those that are hearing this message!! Thanks Tom!
@Aaron Please take the time to read the Gospel of John and pray. May God bless you.

Thats awesome. Praise God.
I have heard thousands of sermons in my life. This is the one sermon that I will never forget. It is the sermon God used to make me His, to save me.
Thanks Ray.
I was saved a long time ago. I didn't really realize it. I'm not even sure if it took and I had zero assurance until I started watching Ray Comfort Just Witnessing. While watching him witness I came to contrition and was assured in my salvation and I caught on fire for The Word of God and for evangelism.

The parachute analogy is brilliant and inspired; and a condemnation of false "prosperity gospel" preachers everywhere. An excellent evangelism tool.
I agree. Presching that "prosperity message" isn't just a sin for the selfish preachers who use it, it's extremely dangerous to all the poor folks who fall for it. I have a Jewish friend who "became a christian" through Joel Olstein's preaching and, years later, is more lost and alone than ever.
@@electricslideshow I’m very sorry to hear that; those false teachers will face great judgment from God. It’s sick & disgusting as they prey on & manipulate so many desperate people. But it’s also an indictment on those who fall for it, for they do not read or study the Word of God for themselves.
Very powerful message. Thanks to The Michigan School of Apologetics for directing me here @Ojo Afolabi , Nigeria.

This is amazing because churches dont preach about hell at all. No repercussions just money and happiness.. thats what our churches teach
Mine does. No holding back at all.
True churches preach hell, the Law and grace through the cross. But most "churches" are not Christian.
Preaching hell is useless, it only causes them to serve out of fear never understanding mercy.
@@kingdomrunt I'm sorry but this is not true at all and not biblical. Everyone I have ever talked to who is not saved (and half the ones that are) think god is a big ball of love and doesn't mind what they do. People understand grace because they continue to live in perpetual sin, never changing their behaviours to become more like Christ.
Jude 1:22
And of some have compassion, making a difference: Others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Proverbs 9:10
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
After 8 years here I am listening to wisdom. This is such a Holy Spirit-inspired message 🙏🙏🙏
Ray, watching your videos has helped me in my struggle of doubting god. Doubting his love and grace and existence. Now I am driven to learn about the teachings of Jesus and I have cried out to him and had faith he will save me from death. Thank you.
Amen. I don’t usually reply to comments but I pray you are still serving God and your doubt has transformed into crazy faith in Jesus name. 🙏🏽
Ray Comfort is a very good servant of the Lord our God.
Thank you so much Ray Comfort!! I am learning so much on how to properly evangelize! God Bless!
Praise God for His faithfulness & mercy to me, a sinner!
I love Ray comforts way of looking at things ! I understand now Jesus came to die for my sins thus I need to repent of my sins and put my trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and savior ! Thank you so much for all your help and evangelism. ! And even though I don't know you for your mentorship and you're challenging us to do the right thing ! And you are correct it is Hell's best kept secret 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@jedimasterham2 he's said many times that repentance is not what saves, he uses the Judge in a court analogy for that, it's just that you can't say you're saved but keep sinning intentionally, your faith is not saving if so. When you believe in Christ it will change you but it's Christ that will save, God will not save those who continue in their sin intentionally, you're either with God or with sin, if the Son therefore sets you free then you are Free indeed from sin
This was one of the best sermons I’ve ever heard! I might be like the other person and listen to this 200 something times!
My favorite preacher, of all time, ever.
He is definitely an excellent preacher indeed
Ray is right up there.
Oh my goodness! I so NEEDED this!!!! Thank you 🙏!!! God is speaking through you! I have been doing street evangelism for 40 years now but all wrong. Oh my Lord Jesus Christ, please forgive me.
Brother Ray Comfort thank you!
The truths of this teaching was the missing key that helped me truly understand my sin and grace. I was one that was questioning my salvation and feeling guilty because "a good christian does not question their faith - that is a lack of faith." Now I know that it was right to question and now, through the scriptures that Ray talked about, I now have the assurance that I had always heard about but never truly had in my heart.
Such revelation, may the Lord continue to use this man to bring the truth of Christ to this world of lies
your sermons are great. God has granted you much wisdom Ray thanks for using it for good. God bless you and your ministry!
Thank you Ray for this message
Allow me to assert that YOUR COMMENT is proof of God answering prayers, as just this morning I watched a video where RayConfort reveals that he routinely prayed to God for wisdom to aid in his evangelism. Done. Tetelestai. Blessings ❤
Amen. The message is still fresh. The truth Amen ++(
Excellent! One of the best - if not THE best of Ray Comfort!
Thank You for Ray!
I was watching this last night and as soon as it got to 16:55, I got so distracted by the time I was done being distracted I had to go to sleep. Praise the Lord I woke up and was able to watch this video!
Man of god remember a sinner is not ready for too many words the fewer the better...so make them count....no stories...
Thank you thank you thank you!! I have shared this over social media with the scriptures included ❤Thank you Almighty God for showing me mercy when I deserve Your wrath. I praise You Almighty God and surrender this life to You
God bless this ministry!🕊🤍🕊
Thanks for sharing this video. Everybody should watch this!
Thank You Lord for the way You have and are using Ray to bring the Truth of Your Word to those who are lost. Showing Your Holy Law and how we have all broken it.
Ray knows how to stay on track! This is good stuff 😇
It's been at least a decade since I drove Ray all over town the day of his evening message, and I recall how we had a "spirited" discussion and much of it was rather debate-filled.
I recall feeling complimented when he said to me, "I haven't thought of it in that light, but I will have to give that more thought" with reference to some of the Gospel message and how far reaching is it's application.
I always loved Ray's humorous saying, *"God doesn't believe in atheists"* in fact, I believe it's the title of one of his books.
This is up lifting love it
Thank you, Ray.🕊️ ❤️
How we need to hear this today!
Ray, you look so young. Thank you for your ministry
Wow That Really good! Major eyeopener thanks man makes a lot more sense that way.
Many people who want to only preach grace I would say I never knew the true grace of god’s grace without knowing my wretched sin towards a holy holy god
Oh wow Ray Comfort. I praise God for you. You are really helping us. May God bless you. I will definitely share these things with others. Watching from Africa, Zambia.
I needed to hear this.
I cried really hard at the ending cause I've been using God's name in vain and been blasphemous....I just pray that the Lord will forgive me of this great sin.😭❤
Yes He will, Jesus says I don’t condemn you, go and sin no more. When we see the sin, then we are told to stop, by His help. We might slip up, but we don’t practice sin any longer. But we continually lay down our old ways pick up our cross and follow Christ, turning from our way to Gods Way.
I always wondered why you don't follow up! That's a beautiful explanation and makes perfect sense.
wow so powerfull thats what the church as beein missing listen well
This is wonderful
Keep up the GREAT work for LOST SOULS....for CHRIST!!!!
LOVE ❤️ your videos....💜🙏✝️
Wonderful Teacher.
This changes everything. Thank you for seeking to find the problem with ‘backsliders’ Ray!
Thank You Jesus !!!
Amazing, amen! Thankyou!
Understanding leads to knowledge and wisdom is putting that knowledge of the lord into practice or action very profound wisdom in this teaching let us in the body of Christ put it into action
Good teaching. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior for dying on the cross that whosoever believes in Him will be saved. 2/12/2021
No One Warned More About HELL Than Jesus Christ!!!
Now those are spiritual statements - the poor in spirit, the broken hearted are the contrite ones, those who are mourning those who know they are sinners, the captives those who Satan has taken captive to do his will, the blind those who the God of this world has blinded their eyes.
A Ray Classic ❤
A true saint without pure motive preaching the true Gospel
Hardly so. He's got a false gospel. All the Bible says is believe on Jesus work on the cross. This guy adds works and repentance. Read the Bible yourself and don't listen to this man who takes verses out of context which disrupts their meaning.
unfortunately ..... what do you need Jesus for? He saves you from ???? Why???? YOU need to reread the BIBLE and in context ....... read what God says around the verses that you quote. Understand who is talking and who is being talked to. YOU Sean unfortunately break the "Not changing the Word" by taking away. HE said not to add or take away from His Word .. one jot or tittle. AND in this you do ere......... So one example..... why did Jesus say "Go and sin no more" ???
@@seanhaney8748oh no! This from the flesh. Read matthew 7:21-23
@loriworkman5127 so many gloss over the prayer of repentance that Solomon prays over his people when he finished building the temple. It basically explains how God views repentance. And it includes to live a life of obeying the ten commandments, which another way to put it is turn from sin. When people say repentance is a work you rely on works to be saved. Ask them do you try to obey the ten commandments? They'll either say no or yes and if they say no they admit to not loving God with all heart mind soul and strength. And if they say yes, that means they have turned from sin and are repenting
If I approach an impenitent sinner someone who's understanding is darkened and say Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins it will be foolishness to him and offensive to him. Foolishness because it won't make sense the Bible says that the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness. And also offensive because I'm insinuating that he's a sinner when he doesn't think he is. As far as he's concerned there are plenty of people far worse than he is. But if I take the time to follow in the footsteps of Jesus and open up the divine law the 10 commandments and show the sinner precisely what he's done wrong he has offended God by violating his law The when he becomes as James says convinced of the law as a transgressor the good news of the fine being paid for him will not be foolishness it will not be offensive it will be the power of God unto salvation
Odd, that mustached guy sounds just like Ray Confort.
I love you Ray!
Thank you.
I used some of his quotes for DJ samples
19 Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so that every mouth may be closed and all the world may become accountable to God;
20 because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin. Justification by Faith
(Romans 3:19, NASB)
Limiteti Tuimana...exactly.!!!
I use this method Jesus used on the road and believe me it works. KEEP it VERY simple and the message will resonate.
America has accepted the premise of humanism. That man is basically good but for him being a victim of his circumstances instead of realizing that he is utterly depraved, born into sin and in desperate need of a Savior in his standing before God. Ray your message reminds me of Jonathan Edwards’ “Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God”. Hopefully it will be just as effective in bringing men to the knowledge of their need for a Savior.
Biblical evangelism is always without question, law to the proud and grace to the humble. Never will you see Jesus giving the Gospel, the good news, the cross, to grace of our God to a proud arrogant self righteous person. Now with the law it breaks the hard heart, with the Gospel he heals the broken heart. Why? Because he always did those things that pleased the father. God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. The scripture says that everyone who is proud of heart is an abomination to the Lord. Jesus told us in the Gospel the spirit of the Lord is upon because he has anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor, the broken hearted, the captives and the blind.
HEARD IT
Wow 👏 I love this
I am still stuck with and appalled by the fact that only 1% of Christians really evangelize! I want to do that very much, and this desire has grown tremendously because of the fact that seek to "finish well" in this life. I also wish to remain obedient to "go and make disciples," to which we should all contemplate various methods by which to do so with the greatest effect. Let us keep as our greatest prayer to be used most effectively to serve the Lord which we love. And let us love our brethren!
Amazing!!!
Btw idk why,But when I look Ray's Looks,He looks like Albert Einstein(Don't u guys never thought about it)
Book of Jude says some come by compassion and some by FEAR!!!
I came to Jesus by both..Preaching Hell should be preached more than ever amidst this grace only doctrine..Jonathan Edwards, Sinners in the hands of an angry God..Hear that.
Wow, this guy talks really smart, praise God He gave him intelligence!
Great sermon.
btw, I seriously thought that guy at 9:39 was Matt Damon...
He definitely looks like a young Matt Damon
It is!! I swear it! I saw it before I saw your comment!! I looked to see if anyone else thought so. Gotta try and find out!!, but How!???
Now I'll be careful to say that it's by faith and faith comes first. God doesn't strike us to believe and then we believe. Salvation does not come before faith. 39:00 he is dancing very close to that calvinist thought and it's false. But he is right that the law will open their ears and eyes.
I wish there were subtitles/transcript for non-native English speakers like me. I will appreciate it if you consider it. God bless
Having listened at minute 6:34 about Galatians 3:24; Ray quotes "schoolmaster" that is in KJV, not "tutor" NKJV. Maybe the 'Evidence Bible' should come in KJV since it was good enough for Ray's start.
It used to come in KJV, I have a leather bound copy at home. You can still get a copy from eBay, just search for “The Evidence Bible, Comfortable King James Version”
ESV is good for me!
Amen
Proverbs 28:1
The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.
Luke 10:19
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Acts 1:8
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
i wonder which number this is of the over 800 times he's preached this 😆
Wow...Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the Father.
Some good points except Jesus didn't say go and make converts. He said to go and make disciples. Not following up is like not feeding a baby because it's born. I did my part. I don't have to keep it alive. Many new converts face unnecessary hurdles due to a lack of discipleship. Some even get entrapped by cults for a while.
I've heard preachers say not to worry so much about getting them saved. Get them lost & they'll seek out how to get saved. I agree with giving the law and the gospel, but Christ established the church for us to grow. New converts need to get in a good Bible believing church.
This does not have enough views
This man has me moving away from the Catholic Church. Since I’m a daily mass communicant/ attendee, that’s no small task.
This is the best way of preparing the ground for the seed of god’s word thier won’t be another Franklin graham in our generation in his thier was already a fear of the lord and the fields were ripe for
The harvest this method has a supernatural way of preparing the ground tilling it for seed of god’s word
Lady in the red must have been the 1st passenger
Jesus says repent of your sins and trust in him that he died on the cross for are sin to give eternal life in hevan. Thank god for the cross I dont have to go to hell!
ROMANS 1:18-32
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
What year was this preached?
When Ray comfort said that we are condemned already, is this before the law is shown to us or after? cause i remember being taught that those who are only shown the word of God and reject go to hell... not those who havent heard of it yet. what are your thoughts?
Have a read through Romans 1: 18 and finish through the chapter. Ray is correct in that teaching.
@@paragon84 thank you :) makes sense now, its for those who supress the truth in unrightousness. So those who havent heard the truth have a chance to hear the truth
@@christiandanario no man is innocent, and God is Holy Holy Holy! If there was a innocent man who never heard of Jesus he’d be in heaven. But that’ll never be. It may not make sense to us, but even those who never heard and die die in sin. If it feels wrong, good! Go and evangelize and spread the good news!
That was a good one. where will men be without women today still in the garden of eden.😂😂
😊
Heaven typo
Amen🕊
Can I download this sermon?
i see..
The one and only part that throws me off about this is the 4th commandment. I never hear Ray say that he keeps the Sabbath. What do we do with the 4th commandment as new testament Christians?? Should we keep the other 9 and break one? Sincere question.
UriYah Ysrayl Because Jesus didn't. In fact, the NT says we are free from Sabbath keeping. It was only God's covenant with Israel. But all the other commandments are repeated to Christians.
+UriYah Ysrayl
The law existed long before the 10 commandments were given to Moses. It is the knowledge of good and evil. It's in everyone. All have sinned, even those who had not the "law" that was given unto Israel. Gentiles are judged according to the law in their hearts. Just like Noah, Abraham, Isaac.... who were justified by faith. Read Romans chapter 4.
You can ask anyone if they have ever done something they know they should not have done, by the conviction of their own heart. That is a sin, and sin is against God, and the wages of sin is death. The commandments were given to lead our hearts to God, but man failed to obtain righteousness this way because it was all outwardly. Jesus clarified that even though you may have not slept with your neighbors wife, but you thought about it, then you have already committed the sin in your heart.
Romans 2:14
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves
Mark 2:27 - And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
Romans 3:20-31
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 10:3-4
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
Ray says that he rests one day a week. He does not hold that it has to be the last day of the week. He does advise that it is not Sunday as that is a very busy day for Christians and is not always restful, but he leaves it to each person's conscience.
As did Jesus who never instructed us to keep the Sabbath but pushed back against the Pharisaical legalism around the Sabbath. And the Epistles go further and also don't instruct us to keep the Sabbath but tell us that days don't matter and even that our rest in in Christ, not the Sabbath. One could even say ever day is Sabbath, in Christ!
Hebrews 3 and 4 are excellent passages for this.
Also check out Colossians 2. And Romans 13.
The Ten Commandments were part of the Covenant with the nation of Israel. They are not binding on us. We are bound to Christ. There is nothing in scripture that binds us to the Sabbath.
But it's such a complex answer! One of the things Jesus was accused of during his earthly ministry was breaking the 4th commandment. Jesus repeated 9 of the 10 commandments...except the 4th commandment. The Bible says that the sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath. But is Sabbath a "law" thing? Sabbath exists even in a perfect world like the garden of Eden, so it predates the "law" given to Moses and Israel. But, as some have pointed out, we are not saved by "keeping the other 9 and breaking one" and we are not saved by "keeping all 10". Paul wrote that the law never paid for anyone's sins. We are saved by the sacrifice of Jesus. Personally (and this is not specifically stated in the Bible, so this is just an "my opinion" thing), sabbath keeping is a very easily misused topic. "Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy" does NOT mean I can go though a list of all the things that I give up for one day a week and then compare it to someone else's list, whether to make myself feel like a great Christian or to make the other person feel like a not-so-good Christian.

Yah you got it. People can really forget what Shabbat actually is.
Genesis 2:1-3
[1] Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. [2] And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. [3] And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Jesus warned to beware the leaven of the Pharisees. It wasn’t that Jesus did not keep the Shabbat, it was that he kept it the way it was intended to be kept. The Pharisees added all these other rules on top of God’s law and corrupted it. In contrast, Jesus is incorruptible!
We need to remember that God created everything. We need to rest from work and honor God. To remember that all of the pursuits of this life are meaningless compared to God’s glory and purpose. As long as you are doing the will of the Father then you are not breaking Shabbat because you are honoring and remembering God.
John 5:16-17
[16] And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. [17] But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
If Ray wants to preach 7 days a week, 24 hours a day then amen! He is doing the work of the Father.
Jesus being the fulfillment of the law is in the fact that when he enters your heart he reveals the purpose of the law to you, that we can fulfill God’s purpose in giving us that law. That our hearts would be completely turned to God. So that we obey not out of obligation but out of supplication.
The meanings of the law that so many overlooked. We obtain righteousness through our faith in the blood of the passover Lamb. Not in trying to follow the rule of law but the rule of the love of God in our hearts.
That’s why the 2 greatest commandments that Jesus gave were to love God with everything you got, and then to love your neighbors in like manner.
Matthew 25:34-40
[34] Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
[35] For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
[36] Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
[37] Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee ? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
[38] When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee ?
[39] Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
[40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
So the best kept secret is false conversions?
No. It is using the law to prepare people to hear the good news. If you try to give someone a cure for a disease, when they don't know that they are sick, they will think you are crazy. Same thing with people that don't know that they are sinners. You use the law to convict, so they understand that we are all sinners and why we need Jesus. That way they will grab on to the cure, the good news, and understand why they need Jesus
@@jedimasterham2 he does not teach works. He says we can't do anything to earn salvation. When he asks people what they think they need to do and they say repent or say sorry, he says that won't do anything. He often compares it to a judge and someone telling the judge they are really sorry for murdering.
If you think he teaches work, you either aren't listening or misunderstood.
There are signs of a true conversion. Repentance and godly sorrow for our sins is a sign of salvation. It's putting our trust in Jesus that saves us. Repentance and asking for forgiveness doesn't save us. They are just some of the signs of what happens when someone is born again.
Many times the Bible talks about repentance. John the Baptist taught repent and be baptized. the Bible also talks about testing yourself to see if you are in the faith.
It also says even the demons believe in Jesus and shudder.
Someone who truly is saved will be born again. God gives them a new heart. They will begin to love righteousness and hate sin. They will no longer live in sin.
Someone who says they believe in Jesus but continues to live in darkness night not truly be saved. That's why the Bible says to see if you are in the faith.
Only Jesus saves, but if you truly are saved there will be signs that follow
@@jedimasterham2 you should talk to the hundreds and probably thousands of people that God used him to lead to Jesus and that are now saved. They would have something different to say about saying he causes harm. Also, all of the thousands of people that he had helped to share the gospel and all of the people that are now born again because of that.
How many people has God used to lead to Jesus?
You don't have to answer. Ray doesn't need me to defend me. He has helped so many people. You should really pray about what you are saying and ask God to reveal the truth and give you discernment
@@jedimasterham2 I do pay attention to his videos. You should pray and ask God to give you true discernment. I took his basic training course. He doesn't teach anything that isn't in the Bible. Sadly, so many people live their sin and they want to make excuses for sinning. The Bible is clear, if you willingly sin after knowing Christ there no longer remains a sacrifice .
Will we never sin, of course not. But we will no longer live in sin.
But you have a blessed day. I do pray that you truly are saved and that God shows you the truth. If he preaches a false gospel, then the Bible is wrong. So is John MacArthur, Todd friel, Steven lawson. Also, Paul Washer. They are share the Bible. The gospel .
But I'm not going to continue to waste my time on you tube comments. Have a blessed day
What is the secret though?
without using the Law or letting someone know genuinely Gods wrath abides on Him, false converts can possibly fill the church
That escaping hell is simply a prayer. That repentance is not required.
sorry you are so gullible and are owned by the mass that doesn't even care about you. You can go to your mom and dad and tell them that they aren't your mom and dad.?.?.? You can keep telling God .............. that HE didn't make you.......... that He is not making your heart to beat..... that HE is choosing to give you your next breath?>?>?>? Sorry ....... thoughts
@@samabebe9936thank you for breaking it down in depth I. Such a short sentence
+Fright Nick God sends you to Hell because you've broken God's Law. Good is just, so He must punish sin. Jesus said Hell was not made for man but for the Devil and his angels. Good is also merciful, loving and kind, and relents in doing harm. So how does a just Good forgive guilty Law breakers and still be just? Good so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For Good did not send His Soon into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved. For He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement for our peace was upon Him and by His stripes we are healed. He who knew no sin became sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. You did the crime, Jesus paid your fine in His life's blood. If you repent of your sin and trust in His Son, Good will remit your sins and grant you everlasting life.
Fright Nick, Think of it this way. How can a just God forgive guilty sinners and still be just?
In order for God to be both merciful and still be just, God the Son became a man to pay the fine. He who knew no sin took ours
God didn't make us weak or imperfect. Genesis tells us that He saw all that He had made and said it was very good. Through one man sin entered the world and death through sin, thus death spread to all men for all have sinned
Adam was given free will. God made a living sacrifice to atone for the rebellious race by sending Jesus Christ to pay the fine for us. God does not tempt with evil. Hell was made for the Devil and his angels, not for man, Jesus said. Are you going to refuse God's gift of salvation? Repent and believe the Gospel and God will forgive your sin and grant you everlasting life
JESUSSSSSSSS is Lord the 10-CANNONLS follow Jesus Christ is the way in Jesus name repent in Jesus name Amen.
