Congrats. Like the apostles, you can take your experience and help others out of darkness. I believe God puts us through dark times so we know the path out. And we can do God’s work to show others that path.
As a 37 years old man who is just now seeing the grace of God, this is very hard to listen to and accept (knowing that it’s hard to accept because of my pride). However, that’s how you know he’s teaching the true Word. Not for one second have I ever thought God is supposed to make me feel good all the time. A pastor that always makes you feel good is clearly twisting the word of God.
@@laurenbatson5918 You don't know what you are saying. That is indeed an issue. The thing you are not getting is that you are NOT good. You have no redeeming quality unless the God man justifies you. Repent and flee to the Lion of Judah! Believe in him alone!
My brother in Christ, I'm 34 and I am just like you. However be of good cheer. Jesus spent 3 years with disciples to empty them of everything they had, so in the appointed time they can be instantly filled with his holy spirit. We must exhaust all our hopes in the flesh, so that we can be of use to God.
Thank u GOD for the few REAL BIBLE PREACHING Pastors/teachers/Preachers … not many left but there’s still a decent amount and my man Voddie is one of them
Is anyone else having their minds blown continuously? I actually paused so many times because I felt dizzy.. like falling in love..again...but the first time... The REAL first time.
@christophermiller1595 nobody will ever not. We never reach a level and move on. We bang our heads at the same wall over and over. The grace that saves us is the very same grace that sustains us, too. Amen, my brother.
@@Rekora_Wulf I got chills reading this reply. You're right on. Our infinite God could reveal something to us every single day about Himself and we still wouldn't scratch the surface when we die.
@user-hp5rk7zw9k I believe that if all we got for being faithful followers of Christ was to see only a glimpse of his face.. that alone would have been INFINITELY worth it. Christ is the prize, not heaven.
I’m 63 and have professed to being a Christian all my life and I have never truly understood the Sermon on the Mount. Voddie just taught me more about it without reading it verbatim Than any pastor in my life. Thank you Pastor Baucham.
This is amazing teaching!!! I have never heard this explained like this. It makes total sense all this time we struggle and struggle but now I see …. RIGHT action /motive /and goal ….must be for the love of God not ourselves…. I’ve been condemning myself so long and the whole time trying to stop sinning on my own.. Thank you pastor!!Im so glad I watched this video..
Indeed. Now what Foundation these motives resting upon? These motives comes to nought without 1ST. Loving God of life for the living with all given unto thee all 2nd. Love our Neighbors as God have loved thee all 1ST 3RD. Remember do not deny these innocents little ones from all my Heirs to come forth. Remember do not murder nor abort my Heirs innocents little ones. Now what is thy motives? Students are ye Good? Nor what is RIGHT? Students will say for God of life for the living ALONE IS GOOD. Yet indeed there's a GOOD SHEPHERD OF SHEEP AND A GOOD SHEPHERD OF LIONS UPON ALL DRY GROUNDS NOR THE WORLD. Who love with patience, mercy, and grace! Hiers what else? Owner of Judgment and Justice! Honor and Gratitude Heirs for all thy feet to REST UPON INDEED. A Child born in this world. Who honor and Gratitude with delight unto all who belongs? Yet, what is Given unto the CHILD not from flesh and blood. But to remind and to comfort. Concerning why ye all are given flesh and blood. Royal Bloods running through thy veins.
Unto all the old minds nor Fathers upon all dry grounds nor the world. Should the CHILD will always be a Child? Who distributes freely and unto all receives. Indeed freely receives. Heirs gathering God's glory unto all Our God of life for the living draws near. Will be Kept. Once an innocents little ones God's glory. A little "i" SITTING WITH THE AM. WILL NOT SHARE HIS GLORY TO ANYONE. What is "ANYONE"? WITHOUT THE LITTLE "i" with the AM shared unto thee all. Even creation itself can't exist!!!!!! Who can come in front? None before HIM. How and Why? Beloved what is a burning bush? Yet not being consumed. How and why? The CHILD the OLIVER JAMITO BORN DECEMBER 29 1976. 1 WILL TAKE THE AXE FROM THE ROOT. THE CHILD WILL WATER THE ROOT TO ROOT TO BECOME A WELL ROOTED TREE NO ONE CAN UPROOT NOR SHAKEN BUT HERE TO STAY FOR GOOD. REMEMBER laughter of my Heirs innocents little ones is my NEW SONG. SITTING IN THE MIDST. Likewise the little "i" sitting with the AM.
Someone once said “A pastor is supposed to pull people out of their pit from his pulpit” So many wolves in sheep’s clothing claiming to be Pastors! Thank God for Pastor V
When I first started exploring Christianity a few years ago, I had a freak out whenever reading The Sermon on the Mount. I didn't understand the gospel yet, but I knew I was unable to be all that. Praise God for the gospel, His mercy, and grace!
oh wow, this is bittersweet and I'm so grateful to look back on the last few months and feel growth as a mother, grandmother and Christian due to spent time in His Word! I'm also so grateful that I'm able to listen to Pastor Voddie teachings online. God's creation is amazing 🙏❤
He goes so deep into the Scriptures. He has enriched, and exposed the layered beauty of the Bible for me in so many ways. The way he connects the dots from one end of the Bible to the other-shows how God’s Word never exhausts itself.❤❤❤
This was refreshing. I give thanks to God for His grace and for the Spirit who keeps peeling back the onion so we get a clear.picture of being poor, pitiful, blind and wretched. Grateful the gifts accorded to men such as Voddie Baucham to help us grasp the truth in a more meaningful way and therefore strain to grow in our dependence on Christ.
I have been truly challenged to rethink my approach to the Gospel and how I have taught the text. More importantly, this preaching has caused me to reevaluate my relationship to the truth of the Word.
I love hearing the sounds of little ones in the background of this precious church. Thank you, Pastor. This sermon needs to be listened over and over by me. I am a complete wretch. It is more evident as I learn more of the Holiness of God! But I am hidden in My Lord, justified by His GRACE. 🥹💔🙏❤️🙌🏻
Great sermon! I love the preaching of this on fire and Christ-led man! Always spot on and always such a blessing from God and always giving glory to God! "Saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone!" all to God's great glory! Hallelujah!
This sermon reminds me of the young man who asked Jesus what he must do to enter the kingdom. The struggle of pride that we all have, each of us dress it differently. Jesus is always saying come and see the difference. The battle of self sufficiency.
You don't always have to "get something out of it" to be doing it wrong is the point. What drives you to obey IS the point. If it's anything other than to give God the glory then it's lawlessness.
I was trying so hard to explain the gospel to my fiance yesterday on our way home from church. She just kept saying but all these pastors say if you do this you're going to hell All these pastors say there's so many Christians that it will be going to hell and all these pastors say this and all these pastors say that. I tried explain to her that I don't care what they said The gospel is the good news I went the good news says there's no one is worthy not one but through God's sacrifice of his son if we believe he died and was resurrected for us then that's what it takes to get into heaven nothing we do nothing we don't do but what we believe. She just couldn't get it the way I explained to her she felt like I was talking down to her telling her things she already knows and that I was treating her like she was dumb. She kept saying I've read it I've read it it says we will be judged for our actions and the things we done that all shall be judged and I couldn't find the words to explain what the good news was and away that she could understand. I cannot wait for her to get home from work so she could hear it from you thank you for this in death explanation of salvation and sanctification I cannot wait to share it with my loved ones Amen
After watching this sermon my eyes have been opened, I no longer rely on my own works, but Christ's work and now I will rejoice knowing that God will santicfy me and that my name is written in the book of life. God bless you all fellow bretheren in Christ. ❤🙏
Wow, this is a haymaker of Truth coming in faster than the speed of light and connecting square in the middle of our glass righteousness. Praise God in Jesus Name, Amen. Brother Voddie really speaking Truth by the Holy Spirit of God working through him.
To agree with Jeryn’s point (but certainly not the motivation) I assure you that there’s even more beauty we don’t yet see. I’m selfishly excited for my own as well as for your understanding which will continue to grow as He ministers to us through the Scriptures.
Thank You Lord God for who You are, and for all that You do. Thank You for bringing clarity of Your Word to our minds and hearts with real teachers such as this. Thank You for Your laborers that You have sent into Your harvest amongst the wolves.
I live Pastor Baucham how you examine the reasons that Give Your Sermons in both the Old and New Testaments.I thank God for you Sir as I have learned a lot about God,Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit!Blessings to you, your family, and your Faith Family!
I have to say this is one of the most powerful sermons I have ever heard. Glory be to God that He gives us such gifted and truth speaking teachers as this.
Thank you! I desperately needed to hear 34:00 through 40:00. Every time I would hear someone make a confession like that I would question my own salvation and wonder whether the Holy Spirit was working to sanctify me; I would question whether the speed at which I was growing was too slow to be reliable evidence of justification.
Whenever I start to compare my life to that of "more godly" Christians, the Holy Spirit gently reminds me of His fruits and that I am selectively in my life that has access and influence on people that the other does not and I praise and thank Him for that..... Man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. This passage by Paul speaks to what I'm saying, " For we don’t dare classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. But in measuring themselves by themselves and comparing themselves to themselves, they lack understanding. We, however, will not boast beyond measure but according to the measure of the area of ministry that God has assigned to us, which reaches even to you. So the one who boasts must boast in the Lord. For it is not the one commending himself who is approved, but the one the Lord commends. " 2 Corinthians 10:12-13, 17-18 HCSB
I know 100% that voddie was sent by God to spread the gospel, this is his purpose in life as it is for all believers in Christ, God has given all of us a way to spread his love but I believe only a small sum of men are chosen to preach his word in the church. Praise his name Jesus is Lord 🙏❤️
I am a sinner who is dead to sin. But being Man, I know, I'm bound to sin again. I know, and I forgive myself, because I forgive you, as WE'RE forgiven by HIM. I'm not sure if I was being clever to show off for me or HIM. But he is worthy of praise...winsome
Sending this to all the people on my messaging list. I was finally save in 2019 after years I was thinking I was saved, But listening to this, I feel like the woman at the well. Come listen to a man who told me all about myself. Voddie isn't Jesus, but he is His messenger.
This is the first time I have heard someone preach how sanctification really works. I struggle with alcohol and I got caught up in the charismania and deliverance movement and I didn’t drink for a year bc i thought it was a demon that i had casted out. The second I started realizing the truth and God began bringing me out of the deception I was under, the alcoholism came right back. I absolutely still struggle with it but it is getting easier to deal with. Evidence of justification is our sanctification. I wish i could have heard this 5 years ago when i first got saved and my alcoholism kicked into high gear. 😩
But God wastes nothing.... ask Him to show you what good can come...more than likely you'll come across someone struggling the way you were with all manner of confusion and you can be that encouragement- that extention of God's grace that gives another freedom in Christ ad He intended♥︎
What I like about VODDIE is he preaches expositional and also includes the important aspect of application and how these passages can practically on a daily basis transpire in our lives❤
It’s Christ crucified and we yielded to the Father’s will,die daily.I am sorry when I look back but thankful for the never failing love reaching to me.Amen to the sermon.
Woah.... praise God for this truth of JUSTIFICATION by FAITH thru His GRACE that works to SANCTIFY us till we are fully conformed to the IMAGE of CHRIST !! This message and the one Bacham preaches on the assurance of salvation are 2 of the most IMPACTFUL in my life... for the TRUTH shall set you FREE♥︎
Love the part about the difference between justification and sanctification. Lots of misunderstanding surrounding the process. It get misused and misunderstood to the point of people falling into religious legalism.
"I feel guilty. I wanna rededicate my life. That makes me wanna spit!" Perfectly said...Arminian fundamental Baptism in a nutshell. Walk an aisle, sign a card, ask Jesus into your heart (as if He wants to be there in the first place). You can walk down the aisle, sign that card, and even ask Jesus into your heart, all without ever repenting of your sins. And all of those things, or any combination thereof, will do you no good whatsoever outside of true repentance. The Old Testament prophets called for repentance, as did John the Baptist, the apostles, and, of course, Jesus Himself. Our Savior called the seven churches in Revelation to repent, not ask Him into their hearts. Anyone who tells you to ask Jesus into your heart as a means of salvation is lying to you, willfully or not.
But the churches were still saved and are called lampstands! Their salvation will not be conditioned upon their own holiness, but Christ’s righteousness. Voddie did a good job distinguishing between salvation and sanctification. Why do so many Christians have weird screen names?
People who have no Faith in Jesus or believe will be deceived, captivated, and destroyed because they know not God. Demons are already infiltrating folks as we go about our lives. Look at the behaviors. I pray for the souls of the Lost...seek the Lord while he may be found, call on Him while he is near, Is.55:6. Thank you, Church Life...God keep you in Jesus Christ name. Amen.
A servant of GOD knows that even his righteousness is as filthy rags before the LORD. So to that person, good works isn't done through pride, it's simply his reasonable service.
What shall we say then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace should increase? By no means! We died to sin, how can we live in it any longer... Also... If we continually keep on sinning after receiving knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left... but only an expectation of judgement and of raginging fire that will consume the enemies of God. Brothers, we cannot LIVE in the comfort of our sin...
This is in Hebrews, the knowledge of the truth that they received was that Jesus died for their sins and rose for their justification. I believe this was speaking to hebrews, who were continuing to trust in their own righteousness through the law. Instead of trusting God to justify the wicked through, the death burial and resurrection of Christ. Sin is the transgression of the law, Under the law, no one would be saved, because everyone is a lawbreaker., transgressor , And to fall short, and any part of the law ,you are guilty of all. If you try to live by the law for your salvation you are trusting in your own performance which is filthy rags. We have a righteousness not our own, a righteousness, which comes through faith in Christ. We all sin every day, willingly, and unwillingly. Do the best you can, but only Christ, dying for our sins, being in tomb, and being raised from the dead, is the gospel that now saves us. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, having forgiven us ALL our trespasses. This is the way I understand it.
@Rubytuby it is talking about willfull unrepented sin. People who claim to love God but have unrepented hearts. You cannot rely on your own righteousness no... but you still need to obey God. I can't live an active impure life (sleeping around, stealing, homosexualty etc) and then say ... oh I trust God so I now have a license to sin... I don't think that is what he is saying... like you said... we all sin willfully and unknowingly so thank GOD for grace.... however if I have no regard to the things of Christ... no you are not on the nartow road. It's not about acting right but having God's heart to love what he loves and hate what he hates.
Did no one else see the part of the sermon where Voddie points out of you think you aren’t sinning, you probably still have pride and self-righteous? The Holy Spirit convicts people of sin. Jesus came to free people (of sin), not condemn them (John 3:16). Anyone who has read the Bible knows Paul can be whiny and sexist. We all sin, but Gnostic box checkers have a harder time seeing their sin.
Actions we can see, but motives and goals we cannot, unless they are written down or communicated. However, even that cannot necessarily be trusted. People lie.
Matthew 5, 6 & 7 speak about the Beattitudes: the Kingdom principles, the Kingdom practices, and the Kingdom character. A great introduction to the Bible. Have a blessed day! ❤
Our belief in Jesus Christ is the truth of the word of God; which is given to us by the HOLY SPIRIT,that helps us give,work,and prosper. Following the rules, principal's, and law's of God; Salvation is born,when we get sanctification from God,we are justified through Jesus Christ. Faith;by the grace of Jesus Christ alone equals eternity with him. Our new being will bring fourth work's, Love,and Salvation. WE HAVE TO REPENT AND TURN FROM SIN. ❤🎉❤🎉
If all of this is true, and I think it is, I've been taught wrong for most of my life. How many alter calls have I participated in where the pastor preacher encourages the flock to rededicate themselves...to get back on track...but they couldn't have all been wrong...no...I would like to think that maybe I just understood it wrong...some did say turn away from your sins... repent and be blessed...ask for forgiveness. Maybe it's just the way Voddie puts it that makes it more clear...or maybe it's where I am in my life...I don't know...but oh how many times have I "rededicated my life " only to never truly change my heart/ renew my mind. Maybe this is why I could sit in church and still think about suicide, or feel worse than how I felt before I got there. Maybe this explains the sadness and frustration and anger and bitterness and not so great disposition in spite of "doing the right thing"...They said if you do this, then God will do this...well...in many cases, those things didn't happen and I believed I was not loved by God, that nothing I did really mattered. How many times have I wondered what the whole point of abstaining from this or that if bad things were still gonna happen and the fog/ heaviness would still be there? How many times... :-(
We are not always faithful but God is ALWAYS faithful and the fact that this sermon has reached our ears is His faithfulness to our ‘seeking’ “I love those who love me, and those who diligently seek me will find me. Proverbs 8:17 But from there, you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. Deuteronomy 4:29 So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Luke 11:9-10 ‘You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
They can absolutely feel every brutal, evil, disgusting, torturous thing. They are precious, vulnerable, and sensitive even to mommy's mood while in the womb. And to be imprisioned for preaching God's word, truth against an abominable act...? Like biblical persecution beginning - when the apostles were imprisoned fir preaching the gospel.
20 years drug free, set free by the grace of God.
He whom the son sets free is free indeed my brother.
Congrats. Like the apostles, you can take your experience and help others out of darkness. I believe God puts us through dark times so we know the path out. And we can do God’s work to show others that path.
✝️
Thanks brother

Praise God for the Holy Spirit at work in our lives
Amen. Thanks for listening
Thank You Lord God for who You are, and for all that You do. Thank You for bringing clarity of Your Word to our minds and hearts with real teachers such as this. Thank You for Your laborers that You have sent into Your harvest amongst the wolves.
We do need Christ desperately!
Amen. Thanks for listening
To God be the glory! This truth is timeless for our society.
I live Pastor Baucham how you examine the reasons that Give Your Sermons in both the Old and New Testaments.I thank God for you Sir as I have learned a lot about God,Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit!Blessings to you, your family, and your Faith Family!
I have to say this is one of the most powerful sermons I have ever heard.
Glory be to God that He gives us such gifted and truth speaking teachers as this.
When you understand and are mature you will see that this is the only way it can be considered Fair! Gospel only!
Thank you! I desperately needed to hear 34:00 through 40:00. Every time I would hear someone make a confession like that I would question my own salvation and wonder whether the Holy Spirit was working to sanctify me; I would question whether the speed at which I was growing was too slow to be reliable evidence of justification.
Whenever I start to compare my life to that of "more godly" Christians, the Holy Spirit gently reminds me of His fruits and that I am selectively in my life that has access and influence on people that the other does not and I praise and thank Him for that..... Man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart.
This passage by Paul speaks to what I'm saying,
" For we don’t dare classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. But in measuring themselves by themselves and comparing themselves to themselves, they lack understanding.
We, however, will not boast beyond measure but according to the measure of the area of ministry that God has assigned to us, which reaches even to you.
So the one who boasts must boast in the Lord. For it is not the one commending himself who is approved, but the one the Lord commends. "
2 Corinthians 10:12-13, 17-18 HCSB
I know 100% that voddie was sent by God to spread the gospel, this is his purpose in life as it is for all believers in Christ, God has given all of us a way to spread his love but I believe only a small sum of men are chosen to preach his word in the church. Praise his name Jesus is Lord 🙏❤️
I’m so grateful Jesus died for me.
The longer I live the more sin I see in my heart. Only Jesus can wash us clean by his blood.
Amen. Thanks for listening
I am a sinner who is dead to sin. But being Man, I know, I'm bound to sin again. I know, and I forgive myself, because I forgive you, as WE'RE forgiven by HIM.
I'm not sure if I was being clever to show off for me or HIM. But he is worthy of praise...winsome
Thank you Lord for this meat of your word that you gave to me ❤
Always enjoy listening to Voddie
He is a awesome teacher I am learning so much God bless you
Sending this to all the people on my messaging list. I was finally save in 2019 after years I was thinking I was saved, But listening to this, I feel like the woman at the well. Come listen to a man who told me all about myself. Voddie isn't Jesus, but he is His messenger.
This is the first time I have heard someone preach how sanctification really works. I struggle with alcohol and I got caught up in the charismania and deliverance movement and I didn’t drink for a year bc i thought it was a demon that i had casted out. The second I started realizing the truth and God began bringing me out of the deception I was under, the alcoholism came right back. I absolutely still struggle with it but it is getting easier to deal with. Evidence of justification is our sanctification. I wish i could have heard this 5 years ago when i first got saved and my alcoholism kicked into high gear. 😩
But God wastes nothing.... ask Him to show you what good can come...more than likely you'll come across someone struggling the way you were with all manner of confusion and you can be that encouragement- that extention of God's grace that gives another freedom in Christ ad He intended♥︎
May God continue to Bless and keep you and your family safe and healthy.. I am really bless by this message.. The sermon on the Mount. God bless ..
What I like about VODDIE is he preaches expositional and also includes the important aspect of application and how these passages can practically on a daily basis transpire in our lives❤
Wow 😮what a sermon- thank you 🙏
Voddie Baucham Paul washer best teachers of Gods word
Perfect message
I needed to hear this sermon. ❤
I am grateful to God for his grace upon you.

Pastor Voddie dropping fire once again!
Wow. That was beautiful. Thank you lord.
It’s Christ crucified and we yielded to the Father’s will,die daily.I am sorry when I look back but thankful for the never failing love reaching to me.Amen to the sermon.
Thanks for listening
Amen Brother. I really needed to hear that. I know God is speaking his words ❤ thank you sir❤
Woah.... praise God for this truth of JUSTIFICATION by FAITH thru His GRACE that works to SANCTIFY us till we are fully conformed to the IMAGE of CHRIST !! This message and the one Bacham preaches on the assurance of salvation are 2 of the most IMPACTFUL in my life... for the TRUTH shall set you FREE♥︎
Glory be to God 🙏🏽
This was a Powerful Teaching!!
Thank you, for sharing! I am invested and would LOVE to hear ENTIRE series. Will you be posting those?
My favorite part of this sermon is at 1:25:00. Ouch! And Amen!
The Word of God is not just a book it is Christ Himself. John 1:1-5, 14 Rev 19:13. It's a trip when it hits home. A trip to freedom as well
♥️🇧🇸🥰WOW I needed this teaching.😢😢
Love the part about the difference between justification and sanctification. Lots of misunderstanding surrounding the process. It get misused and misunderstood to the point of people falling into religious legalism.
AMEN🙌🏽
Please pray for my family and myself. Thank you
Thanks for listening
@@gfbc1689 thank you for sharing
Thank you for Thank you
"I feel guilty. I wanna rededicate my life. That makes me wanna spit!" Perfectly said...Arminian fundamental Baptism in a nutshell. Walk an aisle, sign a card, ask Jesus into your heart (as if He wants to be there in the first place). You can walk down the aisle, sign that card, and even ask Jesus into your heart, all without ever repenting of your sins. And all of those things, or any combination thereof, will do you no good whatsoever outside of true repentance. The Old Testament prophets called for repentance, as did John the Baptist, the apostles, and, of course, Jesus Himself. Our Savior called the seven churches in Revelation to repent, not ask Him into their hearts. Anyone who tells you to ask Jesus into your heart as a means of salvation is lying to you, willfully or not.
But the churches were still saved and are called lampstands! Their salvation will not be conditioned upon their own holiness, but Christ’s righteousness. Voddie did a good job distinguishing between salvation and sanctification. Why do so many Christians have weird screen names?
Thanks for listening
This message is good
People who have no Faith in Jesus or believe will be deceived, captivated, and destroyed because they know not God.
Demons are already infiltrating folks as we go about our lives. Look at the behaviors.
I pray for the souls of the Lost...seek the Lord while he may be found, call on Him while he is near, Is.55:6.
Thank you, Church Life...God keep you in Jesus Christ name. Amen.
A servant of GOD knows that even his righteousness is as filthy rags before the LORD. So to that person, good works isn't done through pride, it's simply his reasonable service.
Thanks!
Thanks
So many has done this speech and Voddie Baucham tells us exactly what Jesus Christ said to His followers!❤
What shall we say then?
Shall we go on sinning so that grace should increase? By no means! We died to sin, how can we live in it any longer...
Also...
If we continually keep on sinning after receiving knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left... but only an expectation of judgement and of raginging fire that will consume the enemies of God.
Brothers, we cannot LIVE in the comfort of our sin...
Thanks for listening
This is in Hebrews, the knowledge of the truth that they received was that Jesus died for their sins and rose for their justification. I believe this was speaking to hebrews, who were continuing to trust in their own righteousness through the law. Instead of trusting God to justify the wicked through, the death burial and resurrection of Christ. Sin is the transgression of the law, Under the law, no one would be saved, because everyone is a lawbreaker., transgressor , And to fall short, and any part of the law ,you are guilty of all. If you try to live by the law for your salvation you are trusting in your own performance which is filthy rags. We have a righteousness not our own, a righteousness, which comes through faith in Christ. We all sin every day, willingly, and unwillingly. Do the best you can, but only Christ, dying for our sins, being in tomb, and being raised from the dead, is the gospel that now saves us. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, having forgiven us ALL our trespasses. This is the way I understand it.
@Rubytuby it is talking about willfull unrepented sin. People who claim to love God but have unrepented hearts. You cannot rely on your own righteousness no... but you still need to obey God.
I can't live an active impure life (sleeping around, stealing, homosexualty etc) and then say ... oh I trust God so I now have a license to sin...
I don't think that is what he is saying... like you said... we all sin willfully and unknowingly so thank GOD for grace.... however if I have no regard to the things of Christ... no you are not on the nartow road. It's not about acting right but having God's heart to love what he loves and hate what he hates.
Did no one else see the part of the sermon where Voddie points out of you think you aren’t sinning, you probably still have pride and self-righteous? The Holy Spirit convicts people of sin. Jesus came to free people (of sin), not condemn them (John 3:16). Anyone who has read the Bible knows Paul can be whiny and sexist. We all sin, but Gnostic box checkers have a harder time seeing their sin.
Amen!
Thanks for listening
Great sermon, brother Voddie!
I needed this message. God bless
Wow what a good sermon, never thought about motives to things. Want to listen to more!
Praise the Lord!!! 🙌
Actions we can see, but motives and goals we cannot, unless they are written down or communicated. However, even that cannot necessarily be trusted. People lie.
Sanctification is the evidence of Justification. Amen!
Matthew 5, 6 & 7 speak about the Beattitudes: the Kingdom principles, the Kingdom practices, and the Kingdom character. A great introduction to the Bible. Have a blessed day! ❤
Amen Amen Amen
Thank you
Amen Brother
Thanks for listening
Amen
Oh the Robe of righteousness that Jesus gives to me.
Thankyou for clarifying instructions and hopefilled admonition
Thanks for listening
Best teaching I've ever heard on Sermon on The Mount
This type of teaching is always needed but you can’t find that here in Florida, Miami Dade
Wow!
Amen. Thanks for listening
AMEN on point
Our belief in Jesus Christ is the truth of the word of God; which is given to us by the HOLY SPIRIT,that helps us give,work,and prosper. Following the rules, principal's, and law's of God; Salvation is born,when we get sanctification from God,we are justified through Jesus Christ. Faith;by the grace of Jesus Christ alone equals eternity with him. Our new being will bring fourth work's, Love,and Salvation. WE HAVE TO REPENT AND TURN FROM SIN. ❤🎉❤🎉
GLORY TO GOD'🤲🏽🙌🏽🤲🏽 🕯️🧬🕯️
Thanks for listening
If all of this is true, and I think it is, I've been taught wrong for most of my life. How many alter calls have I participated in where the pastor preacher encourages the flock to rededicate themselves...to get back on track...but they couldn't have all been wrong...no...I would like to think that maybe I just understood it wrong...some did say turn away from your sins... repent and be blessed...ask for forgiveness. Maybe it's just the way Voddie puts it that makes it more clear...or maybe it's where I am in my life...I don't know...but oh how many times have I "rededicated my life " only to never truly change my heart/ renew my mind. Maybe this is why I could sit in church and still think about suicide, or feel worse than how I felt before I got there. Maybe this explains the sadness and frustration and anger and bitterness and not so great disposition in spite of "doing the right thing"...They said if you do this, then God will do this...well...in many cases, those things didn't happen and I believed I was not loved by God, that nothing I did really mattered. How many times have I wondered what the whole point of abstaining from this or that if bad things were still gonna happen and the fog/ heaviness would still be there? How many times... :-(
We are not always faithful but God is ALWAYS faithful and the fact that this sermon has reached our ears is His faithfulness to our ‘seeking’
“I love those who love me, and those who diligently seek me will find me. Proverbs 8:17
But from there, you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. Deuteronomy 4:29
So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Luke 11:9-10
‘You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
They can absolutely feel every brutal, evil, disgusting, torturous thing. They are precious, vulnerable, and sensitive even to mommy's mood while in the womb. And to be imprisioned for preaching God's word, truth against an abominable act...? Like biblical persecution beginning - when the apostles were imprisoned fir preaching the gospel.
