Thank You for this sermon. I've often wondered if the reason my granddaughter's life was taken when she was only 6 years old, was to "save" her. She loved Jesus and was still innocent, but her parents were, and still are, living a polyandry/multi-partner lifestyle. Her parents are all broken, but still unrepentant. Please pray for them.
@bonniebluebonnet Praying for you and for both of them. The Lord hears the prayers of his believers, and answers all of their prayers in His own time, and in His own way. I trust that you are a Christ follower, so I agree with you on this, and ask that the Father will draw them both to a saving knowledge of His Son, Jesus Christ..and in His Holy Name we pray ~ Amen!
WOW! Sin doesnt make me a sinner! Being a sinner makes me sin! Never Ever Heard It Like That Before! Will remember that Lord! Will repeat it o others as well!
I know the Holy Spirit is in me because I crave more and more knowledge and closeness to the Lord! When I ever do sin I automatically get an icky feeling! Its the Holy Spirit that makes me want to automatically repent. It's just amazing! The Lord is so good! His gift of the Holy Spirit is like a friend that is always with me! Thank you Jesus!
@@buypropertyforreal That is true too! I heard a Justin say that the reason one day a guy named Sam one day comes in wearing a dress and expects you to start calling him Samantha is that God's wrath is already being pit out into the world because sin has reached that limit! That is the best way Ive ever heard it being described! I feel truly sorry for anyone that mentally is going through that in their life. But also, I believe we need to not only pray for them but not call them something they aren't! Thats not helping them be who they are..its going along with them pretending they are something they aren't! God still wants them to turn their lives to Him and they can get well!
Thank you Heavenly Father for PastorJohn & wife Bonnie 🙏. I wish John could have done a longer video. I found this to be very interesting. God bless you 🙏 both & all Christians ✝️ & the Christians to come😊🙏✝️💖
Thank you pastor my wife and I have disagreements on this subject because of your teachings I can now direct her to understand better the LORDS teachings
I like how you go straight to the bible to answer questions! Thats where we should because its the accurate Word of God! I have just started watching you recently, but I respect your knowledge of the bible! Gosh, we really need people like you compared to alot that go by how they feel or their own opinion verses the bible it seems! Thank you!
Father may your goodness that the bible speaks about touch the lives of Chris,Pete and Nick . Lord by your holy spirit may their spiritual eyes be opened and soften their hearts. Give them anew desire to read and believe your word. Father you promise in your word that not one of those who believe in your son Jesus Christ can be removed out of your mighty hand. Father you are the one that holds the earth in your hand,and nothing is impossible to you that created them to serve you.Amen let it be done.
Thank you Pastor. Do you have a clone? I'm blown away with the frequency that I find a new DTBM YT video. I can imagine you have tons of non-video things that have to be done also.
He reposts his videos with new captions. He does come out with new stuff but I’ve seen/heard the “where’s America in the last days” video re posted several times. Good teacher, great videos and I’ve really enjoyed his channel.
I thoroughly agree about metaphorical hell. I’m so glad for the growth of the belief in conditional immortality, which teaches a literal hell rather than a metaphorical like CS Lewis and many other church thinkers believe/believed. Since conditionalism is unarguably what 1st c. Jews held (and ipso facto what Jesus and his audience believed), it’s a great development.
Actually the dead are more aware than you and i they have discovered the truth and know eternity ! They have been shown how heart was formed and judgement and know the truth about good age evil they know that should have could have done better or different they know the secret of life and death
I was curious as to what you would say about dying, on account of dying myself less than one year ago. For me, there was nothing. And I do mean nothing. No light, no angels, no demons, no banquet , no pain , no joy , no memory. No memory of dying. I don`t think the human mind is capable of understanding, the concept of nothing, but I can. I`ve been there. All I know is that two and a half weeks later, I woke up in a hospital bed , feeling like I was trampled by a herd of bison. I was barely able to draw breath the pain was so intense . I`m much better now and I can`t stop thinking that on account of my recent efforts to repent a life of sin and walk with THE LORD . I had begun reading a bible a long ago deceased brother had given me. Forty years I had that book before opening it. I read , I prayed , then I died. Did JESUS intervene on my behalf ? Doctors are certain I was dead. Four separate times. Once more than twenty minutes,. Now I wasn`t in hell , I wasn`t in heaven. So where was I ? I really appreciate your interpretations of scripture, and look to learn more about GOD , and how I might better please him.
Since you are here telling this, that was not your body's final ultimate death; and with being eternal and omniscient God knew it would not be, therefore you did not have an experience of final, ultimate, death, so, the two things are not the same and do not compare.
You confirm my believes, I believe if you are dead you are asleep and know nothing until the day of judgement when the dead in Christ shall rise first and then the rest. That is according to the Bible. There is no immediate life after death and this is clearly seen throughout the scriptures. Blessings and pray for a speedy and full recovery to you. Shalom.
@@justmyopinion7 How does that interact with Luke 16 verses 22 and 23 in the parable Jesus told, "One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's side." That's one day the beggar died and was carried, not one day the beggar died and on another day he was carried. Or was Jesus inadvertently misleading us about that timing? Perhaps he forgot, after all, there was much on his mind and mistakes would be understandable. Or do Jesus' parables not actually parallel reality, maybe they sort of parallel reality kind of, in a way, almost, and here's a fudge factor in them?
@@scottfw7169 I have wondered a lot about that piece as well, but believe pattern is prophecy. If 20 verses point to us sleeping and 1 verse point to us going to heaven immediately.... shall I discard the 20 and accept the 1 cause it fits my narative. Especially if the other 20 verses are as clear as day? I believe Jesus told this parable to show that the end result is final, not like the roman catholic church teaches you can pray for the dead to get a pass to heaven and this parable also points towards Jesus Himself. In the parable, in verse 31 we see "And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.", so they have the scriptures, but even if someone comes back from the dead they would still not believe them. Jesus came back from the dead and still the pharisees didn't believe in Jesus. If this parable was true, I would be very disappointed, because I don't want to be in Abraham's bosom, I want to be with our Father and Jesus Christ His Son....
They go right back to Heaven ,That I believe with all my heart & soul for a child is not asked to be born into this unholy world ,Amen praying for All on this earth many that don't know our Lord Thy God Jesus Christ as their Savor the one whom die for all Sin that whi ever believed in him did his work word whi have ever lasting life in Heaven with Our Lord Thy God Jesus CHRIST ,Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏his word is coming to pass each day night , Amen 🙏 🙌🙏🙌🙏🙌🙏🙌
Belief and Behavior Go Hand and Hand. Belief; Believing in Jesus Christ ✝️ Behavior; in all you do is accountable to Lord Jesus Christ; including the friends you choose. Rejoice in the Lord our God Jesus Christ Always. Amen✝️
I believe the correct explanation is, with all due respect, we are not sinners because we sin, we sin because we're sinners. I don't know if this explanation is the same as the pastor's.
Anyway. My son died at 3and half. Months...and I questioned why,,, everything. I know this he was conceived in lust,,her married. Both fornication and drugs were the problem totally dysfunctional relationship and I must say I'm glad 2day that my son didn't go through life and have a chance at not know god,,,,if he had lived he would b one of the kids 2day with the lbgq rainbows magic,,godless children... I know. My son is in paradise and I intend 2 c him in the end. Godbbless
I remember reading that one of the major war criminals in WWII told his followers that, when he died, he wanted to be cremated and his ashes released & spread all over from an airplane. When asked why he responded that he was he didn't believe in God and if he was right it wouldn't matter. But if he was wrong & there was a God, he wanted to be scattered all over so that God couldn't find him when HE comes! I think he's going to have a very sad surprise. 🙄
John 5:28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment They are in their memorial tombs.
I don't understand where people get the idea that the passage from Jonah is talking strictly about children and those mentally incompetent. That may be right, but I think it's interesting that it doesn't say they can't discern their right from their left but rather that they don't know their right from their left. To me, this seems more like saying that these people, who have another spiritual being assigned to watch over them (who is accepting worship instead of pointing it to Yahweh), don't know their right from their left as a result of failure by their Eloheim overseers. Once they heard a word sent from Yahweh, they were willing to listen, to repent, and to fast. Interestingly, even the livestock fasted, so I think that's why the livestock gets mentioned as well.
No one has ever talked about babies that you lose while still pregnant that die in the womb. I lost one at 4 months and still wonder if the baby went to heaven. Anyone have and answer?
Sister, your baby is the same as all the other babies, except that unlike the ones that were born, GOD called your baby home, before they were born. You can rest assured that your baby is in heaven.
@@HongLee225There is no Bible verse that says all babies that die, go to Heaven. There are several verses that point to, children being innocent, because they are not capable of sinning, willfully against the father. The Prophet Jeremiah called the babies that were sacrificed to Moloch as death of the innocents.Even GOD referred to these babies as innocent.
Babies, those who have yet to realize and act upon the free will given to all men in a way that is dishonoring to the Word and Will of the Living God, go to heaven when they die, no different than the unborn who die in the womb. Those who have been born-again go directly to heaven when they die, first giving their account to the Almighty, then being glorified first before they step into His presence. (2nd Cor. 5:8) The wicked, those who die in their sins, go directly to hell, and there they remain until after the 1,000-year reign of Christ on this planet, when they will stand before the Lord Jesus Christ at the great white throne of judgement, and then be cast into the lake of fire where they will remain forever.
According to the word those that have died are asleep and know nothing, until the day or resurrection for the rapture where those that are alive will be called up and those that have died in Christ will rise first. The rest will remain in the grave until day of judgement after the 1000 years. When you are asleep, you have no perception of time and the same when you are dead, so to be absent of body and present with God can be 1 day or 4000 years, you will have no perception of time.
The arguments given from the passages for babies going to heaven are inconsistent with the doctrines of salvation. In the Old Testament all went to sheol. Far better is simply to state that they await judgement, judgement is for sin, and as they were too young to choose to sin they have nothing to fear. We can be confident that God's judgement is just. If we don't maintain this position, then all the lost were once saved. But the Bible teaches that we are born, even conceived as enemies of God. That is we are lost and need to be saved.
Dear preacher, I am not a preacher just a simple person that loves God with all my heart. I listened intently to your sermon, but respectfully disagree with your preaching today. I always have great respect for your teachings as it is clear and out of the Word, but today I don't agree. I believe when we do a study of the Word, we must look throughout the whole scripture how the subject is handled and there are no other verses supporting any of your teaching on this subject. I might be wrong, as said I am not a preacher and don't read through the Bible every 3 months that you do, so you would definitely know better. From my little understanding of scriptures I believe the following: When we die, we are asleep and know nothing.... Eccl 9:5 "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten." So here we see that the dead knows nothing and they have no reward. Dan 12:1-2 "And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt." We see that only after or during the tribulation will people shall awake from their sleep, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting contempt. Even Jesus said that people that have died are only asleep, the most famous of course Lazarus. In John 11:11-14 "These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. 12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. 13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. 14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead." And we get the same applied to Jairus's daughter in Luke 8:52-53 "And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead." All of the verses above clearly shows that Jesus said those that have died are asleep and knows nothing. So when will the dead arise? 1 Thes 4:15-17 "For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." So we see during the tribulation times or after, Jesus will call us up and those that are still alive will be changed into heavenly bodies and those that has died in Christ will rise FIRST. So we see that those that have died in Christ are still asleep in their graves. I also believe this is the rapture, for those that have died without Christ will only rise after the 1000 years reign of Christ on earth according to Rev 20:5 "But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection." There are many more scriptures throughout the Word all pointing to the same truths. I believe the parable of Lazarus and the rich man is exactly that... a parable. Everyone always points to the criminal on the cross, for that I am always asking the difference between the following sentences: I assure you... today you will be with Me in paradise. I assure you today... you will be with me in paradise. As I understand, when the Bible was written, there were no punctuation in Hebrew or Greek, and this might have been the cause, or the roman catholic church changed it like this so that people can believe in purgatory. See if people are going to a holding place now, then purgatory is real, but if there is no holding place then it is not real. Also, how can people go to hell before being judged? The judgement of the great white throne only occurs after the 1000 years when some will rise to everlasting life and some to everlasting damnation. The Bible clearly says this is the first resurrection. I know people claim to be absent of body is to be present with God, but if you fall asleep at night, are you aware of how long you are asleep until you wake up to the morning? You can be asleep for 2 days or a week and will have no realisation of time passed, the same when we die. The dead will close their eyes and when they open it they will see Jesus, whether they have been asleep for 1 day or 4000 years, they have no realisation of time. So what happens to the soul? In Gen 2:7 we see the following: "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Man BECAME a living soul, we were not given a soul but became a soul. So when we die, the breath returns to God and the soul stops existing. If I am wrong, please point me in the right direction cause I want to tell people the truth. Shalom and blessings!
@@Pointerfinger_1 I have also wondered about it a lor but think it might be the fallen angels that took themselves women of the earth to have children be, that's why that scripture also mentions the time of Noah. That also shows Jesus did not go to paradise when He died so He could never have said to the criminal next to Him on the cross that today he would be with Jesus in paradise.
In your closing prayer you referred to God holding no record of our sins. In the light of that how will our works i.e wood hay and stubble or gold silver and precious stones be exposed and judged at the Bema Throne of Christ
I am totally with you on children at death going to Heaven. If we are under the law we are subject to the law of moses. If you are not under the law such as little children don't know Sin, therefore the are not subject to the wages of sin which is death. Carefull for we shall as belonging to Jesus are to fall asleep in christ.But if you are not under the love of JESUS and redemption.Those who continue in sin knowingly die to what we call the second death which is eternal seperation from God in the lake of fire originally created for the fallen angels.Did jesus not say to his deciples do not forbid the children to come to me because these are of the kingdom of. Heaven Mattlew19:1419:14.
I believe babies go to Heaven but there is an age of accountability but no one know what age that is it could be different person to person even we jsut dont know but an actual baby who knows nothing of sin and God or any comprehension of such things cant be held accountable
There was good points about Hades(place of torment) and attributes in there. But this teaching needs fix the main answer What Happens to NT Believers at the moment of their Death. According to Bible clear answer is told in Hebrews 9:27. So we all go to God's judgement after death ☠️ where God Lord Jesus judge us and our eternal destiny will be decided after that judgement which is everlasting heaven (if you have been baptized only once with water Christian Baptism and you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour according the Apostolic Creed). We are saved through Grace of Jesus not by our good work's. If we die without Christ we go to (Gehenna)Hades which is extremely horrible place as video said the waiting room for hell. About this horrible waiting room place Jesus teached about the story of rich man and Lazarus.
According to the word those that have died are asleep and know nothing, until the day or resurrection for the rapture where those that are alive will be called up and those that have died in Christ will rise first. The rest will remain in the grave until day of judgement after the 1000 years. When you are asleep, you have no perception of time and the same when you are dead, so to be absent of body and present with God can be 1 day or 4000 years, you will have no perception of time.
That is a very difficult question to answer as nowhere in the bible is anything like this mentioned, which makes me believe that murder and suicide are seen as the same act. I do believe that, if someone is not at their right mind like being drugged, depressed etc and commit a crime of which they have absolutely no control over that they will be forgiven for it. I also believe in grace and that our Father at the right time have someone to pray and intercede for that believer and pray atonement for them. Our Father's grace is enough for each one of us. I am not saying this lightly, as I actually had 3 friends that died from suicide and have also been struggling with the same questions. Blessings and stay strong.
If babies instantly go to Heaven then why is abortion a sin? Why risk ANY soul going thru this hell of an Earth then risk going to Hell?! What if the soul of the child would have grown up to be evil or hate God, it still goes to Heaven dying as a baby?
Unfortunately you are letting your emotions overrule what God’s Word actually states. At the time of the flood only 8 people were saved. Were the children of that day somehow less relevant than the children of today??…. If every child is born innocent then why was it necessary that Jesus be born of a virgin and from the seed of God and not the seed of man?…. Also, if what you believe is true then abortion could be seen as the most loving act a mother could do for her child, right?!?! Psalm 51:5 5Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me. Romans 3:23 23for ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God
At death ALL go back to the earth- to dust. When Christ returns after completing judgement, He raises all His own.. no life after death until Christ raises all from sleep! Like Lazarus- he did not go to heaven, when Christ died, he did not go to heaven until after!!
The Science of Righteousness is a very profound science. Much of it unspoken by those experiencing it but it is powerful in our thinking and in our behaviour patterns. No one on Earth knows that science and many work against it just by following men but if we listen to the Holy Bible we find Jesus was alive in spirit at the point of his conception, as was John. We all have a spirit. At the point of conception we generate an electric pulse as the living cell replicates and this warmth of spiritual development attracts a righteous spirit to share residence within the newly conceived infant. If righteousness is the code of conduct of its environment then all is well. It may be a spirit of a righteous friend...family member, our church, but it is possible in an unrighteous setting to be, well, an unfriendly spirit. Those who don't get reborn must slumber in the grave, pinned to the Earth by gravity to await the resurrection...and many who could be reborn choose this because of the ungodly upper world above them. The resurrection and its co-joined Judgement will resolve this matter and Wormwood will enforce it..
There is no such thing as re-incarnation, for then someone have to die twice while the Bible clearly teaches everyone is to die once then judgement follows.
@@justmyopinion7 Jesus is teaching us the indestructible science called 'Righteousness'. It has at its root the entire book of electromagnetic force which can repair us, refresh us, and even give us everlasting life...if done correctly. Problem is that an indestructible spirit not worth the hassle will finish up in Ghenna...Best avoided...and there is only one way to avoid it...Jesus Christ's way.
In both the Hebrew and the Greek Scriptures, death is likened to sleep. John 11:11-14 says "After he said these things, he added: “Lazarus our friend has fallen asleep,a but I am traveling there to awaken him. The disciples then said to him: “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get well.” Jesus, however, had spoken about his death. But they imagined he was speaking about taking rest in sleep. Then Jesus said to them plainly: “Lazarus has died" " Ecclesiastes 9:5 says "For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all, nor do they have any more reward, because all memory of them is forgotten."
@@jeffc5474 Please quote your texts. It's very easy for anyone to take things out of context and it happens frequently when discussing scripture. Thank you
@@Blackdawn80 You should have known this one. I’ve read it enough times. Oh that’s right you cherry pick and ignore. Here is a passage from the New Testament ”Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.“ 2 Corinthians 5:8 ESV
@@jeffc5474 No, it means if we die our next stop is with our Father, no holding place in between. It doesn't say how long though. If you go to sleep tonight and wake up tomorrow it is morning. You have no perception of how long you were asleep right? The same when you die... you are asleep and know nothing until the resurrection day (during rapture) or the day of judgement after the 1000 years.
Daniel 12:2 KJV And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. John 11:11 KJV These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. Vast majority of Christians reject the truth to be saved in word of God of a soul sleeps. Old Covenant teach it as the New Covenant. Mal 3:6 God change not! Acts 2:29,34 KJV Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. [34] For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, David as all saints are sleeping waiting till 1st resurrection when Christ returns St John 6:40, 14:1-3 take them to heaven for a thousand years Rev 20:4.
Thanks be to Creator God-Jesus Christ-Small children who have no knowledge of sin are not ACCOUNTABLE for the SINS they commit. Therefore not one of them will have to go before any JUDGMENT SEAT, EVER. IT MEANS that they will enter into Heaven, if they die BEFORE they become ACCOUNTABLE for their sins. The RC church is UTTERLY WRONG for teaching that babies go to hell iF they die.
Babies, those who have yet to realize and act upon the free will given to all men in a way that is dishonoring to the Word and Will of the Living God, go to heaven when they die, no different than the unborn who die in the womb. Those who have been born-again go directly to heaven when they die, first giving their account to the Almighty, then being glorified first before they step into His presence.

@@KevernEllis Yes. “Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? “He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things. (Eph. 4:8-10) Paradise was across the great gulf from hell. (Luke 16:26) That gulf is now gone, as well as all those that once were there before the Lord Jesus Christ came to release them and take them home.
@@borrowedtruths6955 Acts 2:29,34 KJV Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

Message of love. If what I believe is not inline with scripture, I'm willing to let go of error and to follow Christ. However, it seems unfair for a loving God to take all saints to heaven and leave David alone. Furthermore, Jesus said it is at the last day; the resurrection saints will go to heaven to place through His High Priestly ministry Heb 8:1,2, saints will receive mansions in His Fathers house!
Everyone, whether babies, little children, young and old, Christian or pagan, ALL go to the GRAVE when they die. As do animals Ecclesiastes 3:19 for there is an outcome FOR HUMANS and an outcome FOR ANIMALS; they all have the SAME OUTCOME. As the one dies, so the other dies; and they all have but ONE SPIRIT. So MAN HAS NO SEPERIORITY OVER ANIMALS, for everything is futile. 20 ALL ARE GOING TO THE SAME PLACE. They all come from the dust, and they all are returning to the dust. There is no life continuity at death. Satan wants people to believe it (Genesis 3:4). For humans who are in God's memory to come back into existence, God has purposed the RESURRECTIONS (Acts 24:15).
If God is willing that none perish, why does he not show mercy and take them before the age of understanding like you say he did with the lady"s son who the prophet said would be dead before she entered into her home?. Why did God not take Hitler and many others like him before the age of understanding?
@@jeffc5474 I do not fail to understand free will and believe it. My comment is why did God not take Hitler as a baby Knowing that he would grow up the monster he was. The preacher made a case for the woman's child being taken before he could grow up being evil like his father. Why did God not do the same with Hitler and others like him seeing he is not willing that any should perish.
@@SolidRockMachineShopIncNo, you fail to understand free will and it shows. Remember God is not required to do what you want Him to do. It is not God’s responsibility to stop every evil action. You want God to be a tyrant.
@@jeffc5474 Are you speaking for the preacher of this message or are you speaking for yourself? You must be a very wise man to be able to know what one believes without even knowing the person. Jesus could do this but I doubt there are very many others who can do this. I do believe and understand the free will of man better than most. My questions are valid even apart from the teachings of free will because they are based upon what the preacher is teaching and not on what I believe. Are you a child of God? If so, how and when did you become a child of God? Also, did your free will have anything to do with you becoming a child of God?
If God does that to us all there will be no adults ever except for Jesus. We will never know why God do the things He does, but one day when we are with Him we will understand fully.
Jonah 4:11 has nothing do with mentally or small children !! The whole thrust of God's dealing with Nineveh was a threat of destruction on ALL unless they repent. They were godless and ignorant. They departed from what was known to them in doing right ( Romans chp1). Besides, what is the age of accountability ? 2Sam 12:23 Has absolutely nothing do with Ps 16 a prophetic speech about the Messiah , Jesus body after the crucifixion , also quoted by the apostle in Acts 13:35-38. David is merely pointing out that the child's soul like his will be in Sheol. 'Its most likely' he says. The Bible is not a book that deals with the uncertainties of the likely's, or the somehow's. Rev20:11-13 Is an unwarranted application of scripture to do with babies having no works to be judged for. At what point in a human life does sin begin to show it's effect? Why does God even wipe the floor with a wicked nation by total destruction including infants ? Gen 18:25 He misses the point of the context . Does Abraham find any righteous , even 1 ? He argues from a rational and sentimental point of view . God destroys the infant of a wicked king to save the child from repeating the wickedness of his father !! How can he say that ? If such could be the case it raises the question , would it be better if we all died as infants ? Do such infants in the economy of saving work of Jesus Christ cover infants that have not ' actually' sinned ? I don't know. We all like to think so , but we cannot give any real solid answers from scripture.

There is no clear scripture saying that babies and mentally handicapped go to Heaven. There is clear scripture saying a true faith in Christ redeems us. If the Bible isn’t clear, we should not make up our own stance even if it does sound compassionate.
Jesus rebuked the disciples saying, ‘let the little children come to me’... telling them, ‘only those who become like these little children will enter the kingdom of God’.
When God JUDGED THE WORLD in the time of NOAH, the NT says only "EIGHT PEOPLE WERE SAVED". We can safely figure out that the rest went to HELL -- Men, women and CHILDREN. The SAME can be said of SODOM and GOMMORAH. ALL went to HELL. CHRIST SAID that as it was in the DAYS OF NOAH, SO SHALL IT BE AT HIS SECOND COMING. NOWHERE in SCRIPTURE DOES IT SAY THAT CHILDREN WILL BE SPARED FROM HELL. Everyone of us is a BORN SINNER DESERVING OF HELL.
@@tracymcdonald8440 you are in error! If that were the case then why was it necessary that Jesus be born of a virgin and from the seed of God not of man?? Psalm 51:5 5For I was born a sinner- yes, from the moment my mother conceived me….. Romans 3:23 23for ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God NO ONE IS INNOCENT!! Think about what you are claiming. If what you are claiming is true then having an abortion could be seen as the most loving act a mother could do for her unborn child! If that is the case then I soooooo much wish I myself had been aborted!! Seriously, to bypass this horrendous world and go straight into the Kingdom of God!! Sign me up!! It doesn’t work that way. Meditate on this. God knew the end from the beginning. God knew “BEFORE” creation every single soul that would spend eternity in Hell yet He went through with creation anyways. This fact should greatly shape how we read/interpret His Word. God had/has no “need” for man yet we have somehow managed to place ourselves/humanity at the center of the universe.
@@maxsmith3335 If you don't mind, I would rater say 'pretty sure' than pretend that I know and give false information. You can find out the truth yourself, it is in the Bible.
Hi I find it incredibly sad that this pastor-teacher simply doesn't understand the very basic concept of salvation. Yeshua very clearly taught, as well as the entire Bible, that Salvation is based on a person exercising faith. The human DNA, genetic soul, and body is corrupted with the death- sin nature. Any person born or conceived on planet Earth is a sinner until born anew through the Holy Spirit's conviction. Babies and children do not get a free pass.
Babies never and children probable never even knew what is right and what is wrong or even what baptism, salvation and repentance means.... so yes, they will definitely not be held accountable.
@ChildofYHWH77 Hi Unfortunately that's not a Biblical teaching. The problem that unbelievers or immature believers have is the idea that fits them personally without upsetting the secular world, but at the same time compromising The Biblical narratives. Let me put this question to you. Does The Lord God Jehovah Adonai Yeshua teach through His Word that abortion is murder?
They will get a chance to be accountable in the millennium, why should babies and mentally impaired get a free ride, would that be fair, what about the child that died a year or 6 months or 24 hours after reaching accountability,so that's why you have the millennium and Satan released at the end of the millennium to test all these babies and mentally impaired, you must remember all those children and mentally impaired will now be fully grown and will have known nothing but joy peace health etc ,so when Satan is released at the end of the millennium he will offer them a better world, you will see the bars , the brothels, the gambling houses will be in full swing, and I imagine that will be appealing to some of these people,as a matter of fact a great amount will throw their lot in with Satan , just think about it they will be like children who have been under the heavy hand of their parents and when they get away to boarding school what happens they let their hair down to put it midely, another thing to think about what percentage of these babies and mentally impaired had they lived would have been Christian or murderer's, thief's etc, just look at Hitler or any despot what if they had died at infancy,they would be in heaven with God for all eternity, a awful scenario that would be ,so you see that's why you have the millennium,this only my view I can't prove this from the bible, food for thought .

How does any Christian get past the first minute of his unscriptural lies. How is he still in the business when he's so clearly off base with ALL his teachings!!! The dead know nothing, and some will know nothing until Jesus returns, where they will be raised first, the majority however will not be resurrected until the second judgement, none of those resurrected in the second judgement get a prize, apart from a dip in the lake..

But I'm not the one who keeps the venerable day of the SUN or bows down to a false triune god not found in the bible, and I certainly do not confess a 3rd, unbegotten spirit who is not the Son, nor the father, that would be your obscure antibiblical view, right.

Thank You for this sermon. I've often wondered if the reason my granddaughter's life was taken when she was only 6 years old, was to "save" her. She loved Jesus and was still innocent, but her parents were, and still are, living a polyandry/multi-partner lifestyle. Her parents are all broken, but still unrepentant. Please pray for them.

WOW! Sin doesnt make me a sinner! Being a sinner makes me sin! Never Ever Heard It Like That Before! Will remember that Lord! Will repeat it o others as well!
I know the Holy Spirit is in me because I crave more and more knowledge and closeness to the Lord! When I ever do sin I automatically get an icky feeling! Its the Holy Spirit that makes me want to automatically repent. It's just amazing! The Lord is so good! His gift of the Holy Spirit is like a friend that is always with me! Thank you Jesus!
Sin does not make you a sinner, stupidity is controlling the world.
@@buypropertyforreal That is true too! I heard a Justin say that the reason one day a guy named Sam one day comes in wearing a dress and expects you to start calling him Samantha is that God's wrath is already being pit out into the world because sin has reached that limit! That is the best way Ive ever heard it being described! I feel truly sorry for anyone that mentally is going through that in their life. But also, I believe we need to not only pray for them but not call them something they aren't!

Your wife's understanding of the Gospel and man's sin is probally more inline with the Bible than yours.😢

I thoroughly agree about metaphorical hell. I’m so glad for the growth of the belief in conditional immortality, which teaches a literal hell rather than a metaphorical like CS Lewis and many other church thinkers believe/believed. Since conditionalism is unarguably what 1st c. Jews held (and ipso facto what Jesus and his audience believed), it’s a great development.

Very true message thanks John I needed this message today
Thank you very much for this, most informative.
I was curious as to what you would say about dying, on account of dying myself less than one year ago. For me, there was nothing. And I do mean nothing. No light, no angels, no demons, no banquet , no pain , no joy , no memory. No memory of dying. I don`t think the human mind is capable of understanding, the concept of nothing, but I can. I`ve been there. All I know is that two and a half weeks later, I woke up in a hospital bed , feeling like I was trampled by a herd of bison. I was barely able to draw breath the pain was so intense . I`m much better now and I can`t stop thinking that on account of my recent efforts to repent a life of sin and walk with THE LORD . I had begun reading a bible a long ago deceased brother had given me. Forty years I had that book before opening it. I read , I prayed , then I died. Did JESUS intervene on my behalf ? Doctors are certain I was dead. Four separate times. Once more than twenty minutes,. Now I wasn`t in hell , I wasn`t in heaven. So where was I ? I really appreciate your interpretations of scripture, and look to learn more about GOD , and how I might better please him.
Prayers🙏✝️
Since you are here telling this, that was not your body's final ultimate death; and with being eternal and omniscient God knew it would not be, therefore you did not have an experience of final, ultimate, death, so, the two things are not the same and do not compare.
You confirm my believes, I believe if you are dead you are asleep and know nothing until the day of judgement when the dead in Christ shall rise first and then the rest. That is according to the Bible. There is no immediate life after death and this is clearly seen throughout the scriptures. Blessings and pray for a speedy and full recovery to you. Shalom.
@@justmyopinion7 How does that interact with Luke 16 verses 22 and 23 in the parable Jesus told, "One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's side." That's one day the beggar died and was carried, not one day the beggar died and on another day he was carried. Or was Jesus inadvertently misleading us about that timing? Perhaps he forgot, after all, there was much on his mind and mistakes would be understandable. Or do Jesus' parables not actually parallel reality, maybe they sort of parallel reality kind of, in a way, almost, and here's a fudge factor in them?
@@scottfw7169 I have wondered a lot about that piece as well, but believe pattern is prophecy.
If 20 verses point to us sleeping and 1 verse point to us going to heaven immediately.... shall I discard the 20 and accept the 1 cause it fits my narative.
Especially if the other 20 verses are as clear as day?
I believe Jesus told this parable to show that the end result is final, not like the roman catholic church teaches you can pray for the dead to get a pass to heaven and this parable also points towards Jesus Himself.
In the parable, in verse 31 we see "And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.", so they have the scriptures, but even if someone comes back from the dead they would still not believe them.
Jesus came back from the dead and still the pharisees didn't believe in Jesus.
If this parable was true, I would be very disappointed, because I don't want to be in Abraham's bosom, I want to be with our Father and Jesus Christ His Son....
I think you misspoke there sir, Elijah couldn't have come from the grave because he never died..... All the same, I am truly enjoying this sermon.

Has Pastor covered this topic in one of his books? If yes, which one?
I remember reading that one of the major war criminals in WWII told his followers that, when he died, he wanted to be cremated and his ashes released & spread all over from an airplane. When asked why he responded that he was he didn't believe in God and if he was right it wouldn't matter. But if he was wrong & there was a God, he wanted to be scattered all over so that God couldn't find him when HE comes! I think he's going to have a very sad surprise. 🙄
The KJV BIBLE teaches that the moment one dies, he or she goes into Heaven. No delay of even a fraction of a second.

I don't understand where people get the idea that the passage from Jonah is talking strictly about children and those mentally incompetent. That may be right, but I think it's interesting that it doesn't say they can't discern their right from their left but rather that they don't know their right from their left. To me, this seems more like saying that these people, who have another spiritual being assigned to watch over them (who is accepting worship instead of pointing it to Yahweh), don't know their right from their left as a result of failure by their Eloheim overseers. Once they heard a word sent from Yahweh, they were willing to listen, to repent, and to fast. Interestingly, even the livestock fasted, so I think that's why the livestock gets mentioned as well.
No one has ever talked about babies that you lose while still pregnant that die in the womb. I lost one at 4 months and still wonder if the baby went to heaven. Anyone have and answer?
Yes. That baby is in heaven. Waiting on you!

@@HongLee225There is no Bible verse that says all babies that die, go to Heaven.

That is true, but it is still murder...
There's 2 verses that say all babies and young children go to Heaven. 2 Corinthians 5;8
Luke 23;43
Babies, those who have yet to realize and act upon the free will given to all men in a way that is dishonoring to the Word and Will of the Living God, go to heaven when they die, no different than the unborn who die in the womb.
Those who have been born-again go directly to heaven when they die, first giving their account to the Almighty, then being glorified first before they step into His presence. (2nd Cor. 5:8)
The wicked, those who die in their sins, go directly to hell, and there they remain until after the 1,000-year reign of Christ on this planet, when they will stand before the Lord Jesus Christ at the great white throne of judgement, and then be cast into the lake of fire where they will remain forever.
According to the word those that have died are asleep and know nothing, until the day or resurrection for the rapture where those that are alive will be called up and those that have died in Christ will rise first. The rest will remain in the grave until day of judgement after the 1000 years. When you are asleep, you have no perception of time and the same when you are dead, so to be absent of body and present with God can be 1 day or 4000 years, you will have no perception of time.
🙏
The arguments given from the passages for babies going to heaven are inconsistent with the doctrines of salvation. In the Old Testament all went to sheol. Far better is simply to state that they await judgement, judgement is for sin, and as they were too young to choose to sin they have nothing to fear. We can be confident that God's judgement is just. If we don't maintain this position, then all the lost were once saved. But the Bible teaches that we are born, even conceived as enemies of God. That is we are lost and need to be saved.
Dear preacher, I am not a preacher just a simple person that loves God with all my heart. I listened intently to your sermon, but respectfully disagree with your preaching today. I always have great respect for your teachings as it is clear and out of the Word, but today I don't agree.
I believe when we do a study of the Word, we must look throughout the whole scripture how the subject is handled and there are no other verses supporting any of your teaching on this subject. I might be wrong, as said I am not a preacher and don't read through the Bible every 3 months that you do, so you would definitely know better. From my little understanding of scriptures I believe the following:
When we die, we are asleep and know nothing....
Eccl 9:5 "For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten."
So here we see that the dead knows nothing and they have no reward.
Dan 12:1-2 "And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt." We see that only after or during the tribulation will people shall awake from their sleep, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting contempt.
Even Jesus said that people that have died are only asleep, the most famous of course Lazarus.
In John 11:11-14 "These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. 12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. 13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. 14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead."
And we get the same applied to Jairus's daughter in Luke 8:52-53 "And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead."
All of the verses above clearly shows that Jesus said those that have died are asleep and knows nothing. So when will the dead arise?
1 Thes 4:15-17 "For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
So we see during the tribulation times or after, Jesus will call us up and those that are still alive will be changed into heavenly bodies and those that has died in Christ will rise FIRST. So we see that those that have died in Christ are still asleep in their graves. I also believe this is the rapture, for those that have died without Christ will only rise after the 1000 years reign of Christ on earth according to Rev 20:5 "But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection."
There are many more scriptures throughout the Word all pointing to the same truths. I believe the parable of Lazarus and the rich man is exactly that... a parable.
Everyone always points to the criminal on the cross, for that I am always asking the difference between the following sentences:
I assure you... today you will be with Me in paradise.
I assure you today... you will be with me in paradise.
As I understand, when the Bible was written, there were no punctuation in Hebrew or Greek, and this might have been the cause, or the roman catholic church changed it like this so that people can believe in purgatory. See if people are going to a holding place now, then purgatory is real, but if there is no holding place then it is not real.
Also, how can people go to hell before being judged? The judgement of the great white throne only occurs after the 1000 years when some will rise to everlasting life and some to everlasting damnation. The Bible clearly says this is the first resurrection.
I know people claim to be absent of body is to be present with God, but if you fall asleep at night, are you aware of how long you are asleep until you wake up to the morning? You can be asleep for 2 days or a week and will have no realisation of time passed, the same when we die. The dead will close their eyes and when they open it they will see Jesus, whether they have been asleep for 1 day or 4000 years, they have no realisation of time.
So what happens to the soul? In Gen 2:7 we see the following: "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Man BECAME a living soul, we were not given a soul but became a soul. So when we die, the breath returns to God and the soul stops existing.
If I am wrong, please point me in the right direction cause I want to tell people the truth.
Shalom and blessings!
Some very good points made here sir.
@@thehaven3258 Thank you very much for taking the time to read it.
Good points. Only one question: who did Jesus preach to in 1 Peter 3:18-20?
@@Pointerfinger_1 I have also wondered about it a lor but think it might be the fallen angels that took themselves women of the earth to have children be, that's why that scripture also mentions the time of Noah. That also shows Jesus did not go to paradise when He died so He could never have said to the criminal next to Him on the cross that today he would be with Jesus in paradise.
In your closing prayer you referred to God holding no record of our sins. In the light of that how will our works i.e wood hay and stubble or gold silver and precious stones be exposed and judged at the Bema Throne of Christ
It seems we will only receive awards according to our works, but no judgement.
I am totally with you on children at death going to Heaven. If we are under the law we are subject to the law of moses. If you are not under the law such as little children don't know Sin, therefore the are not subject to the wages of sin which is death. Carefull for we shall as belonging to Jesus are to fall asleep in christ.But if you are not under the love of JESUS and redemption.Those who continue in sin knowingly die to what we call the second death which is eternal seperation from God in the lake of fire originally created for the fallen angels.Did jesus not say to his deciples do not forbid the children to come to me because these are of the kingdom of. Heaven Mattlew19:14 19:14.
Isn't it we're born INTO sin? Babies come into the world "clean" with no opportunity to sin until they age.
This talk circa July 23rd, 2011, when Amy Winehouse died.
The age of accountability is not Biblical.
I believe babies go to Heaven but there is an age of accountability but no one know what age that is it could be different person to person even we jsut dont know but an actual baby who knows nothing of sin and God or any comprehension of such things cant be held accountable

There was good points about Hades(place of torment) and attributes in there. But this teaching needs fix the main answer What Happens to NT Believers at the moment of their Death. According to Bible clear answer is told in Hebrews 9:27. So we all go to God's judgement after death ☠️ where God Lord Jesus judge us and our eternal destiny will be decided after that judgement which is everlasting heaven (if you have been baptized only once with water Christian Baptism and you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour according the Apostolic Creed). We are saved through Grace of Jesus not by our good work's. If we die without Christ we go to (Gehenna)Hades which is extremely horrible place as video said the waiting room for hell. About this horrible waiting room place Jesus teached about the story of rich man and Lazarus.
According to the word those that have died are asleep and know nothing, until the day or resurrection for the rapture where those that are alive will be called up and those that have died in Christ will rise first. The rest will remain in the grave until day of judgement after the 1000 years. When you are asleep, you have no perception of time and the same when you are dead, so to be absent of body and present with God can be 1 day or 4000 years, you will have no perception of time.
What will happen to a true believer if he commit suicide out of depression? Will he as a true Christian still goes to heaven??
That is a very difficult question to answer as nowhere in the bible is anything like this mentioned, which makes me believe that murder and suicide are seen as the same act. I do believe that, if someone is not at their right mind like being drugged, depressed etc and commit a crime of which they have absolutely no control over that they will be forgiven for it. I also believe in grace and that our Father at the right time have someone to pray and intercede for that believer and pray atonement for them. Our Father's grace is enough for each one of us.
I am not saying this lightly, as I actually had 3 friends that died from suicide and have also been struggling with the same questions.
Blessings and stay strong.
Thank you for your reply. May God bless your teachings 🙏
@@gertnel9320 Thank you very much, but I am really not a preacher 😁
If babies instantly go to Heaven then why is abortion a sin? Why risk ANY soul going thru this hell of an Earth then risk going to Hell?! What if the soul of the child would have grown up to be evil or hate God, it still goes to Heaven dying as a baby?
Of course they go right back to God in Heaven 🙏🙏🙏…I don’t care if Calvin or whoever said it….we serve a merciful God
Unfortunately you are letting your emotions overrule what God’s Word actually states. At the time of the flood only 8 people were saved. Were the children of that day somehow less relevant than the children of today??…. If every child is born innocent then why was it necessary that Jesus be born of a virgin and from the seed of God and not the seed of man?…. Also, if what you believe is true then abortion could be seen as the most loving act a mother could do for her child, right?!?!
Psalm 51:5 5Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Romans 3:23 23for ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God
The two biggest differences between John Barnett and Benny Hinn are hair and Benny is better at deceiving more people.
we are NOT born sinners! we are created by God!
Scripture says we are born in sin.
@@elizabethtovar3603 wrongo! we are All made by the hand of God!
At death ALL go back to the earth- to dust. When Christ returns after completing judgement, He raises all His own.. no life after death until Christ raises all from sleep! Like Lazarus- he did not go to heaven, when Christ died, he did not go to heaven until after!!
TRUTH!!! Amen
The bible never say confessing Jesus to be saved. Devils believe and treble. Obedience the doctrine will. Obey acts2:38.
The Science of Righteousness is a very profound science. Much of it unspoken by those experiencing it but it is powerful in our thinking and in our behaviour patterns. No one on Earth knows that science and many work against it just by following men but if we listen to the Holy Bible we find Jesus was alive in spirit at the point of his conception, as was John. We all have a spirit. At the point of conception we generate an electric pulse as the living cell replicates and this warmth of spiritual development attracts a righteous spirit to share residence within the newly conceived infant. If righteousness is the code of conduct of its environment then all is well. It may be a spirit of a righteous friend...family member, our church, but it is possible in an unrighteous setting to be, well, an unfriendly spirit. Those who don't get reborn must slumber in the grave, pinned to the Earth by gravity to await the resurrection...and many who could be reborn choose this because of the ungodly upper world above them. The resurrection and its co-joined Judgement will resolve this matter and Wormwood will enforce it..
There is no such thing as re-incarnation, for then someone have to die twice while the Bible clearly teaches everyone is to die once then judgement follows.
@@justmyopinion7 Jesus is teaching us the indestructible science called 'Righteousness'. It has at its root the entire book of electromagnetic force which can repair us, refresh us, and even give us everlasting life...if done correctly. Problem is that an indestructible spirit not worth the hassle will finish up in Ghenna...Best avoided...and there is only one way to avoid it...Jesus Christ's way.
Not all Calvanists believe babies go to heaven sadly ...
In both the Hebrew and the Greek Scriptures, death is likened to sleep.
John 11:11-14 says "After he said these things, he added: “Lazarus our friend has fallen asleep,a but I am traveling there to awaken him. The disciples then said to him: “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get well.” Jesus, however, had spoken about his death. But they imagined he was speaking about taking rest in sleep. Then Jesus said to them plainly: “Lazarus has died" "
Ecclesiastes 9:5 says "For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all, nor do they have any more reward, because all memory of them is forgotten."
So when the Bible says to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, God is lying according to you.
@@jeffc5474 Please quote your texts. It's very easy for anyone to take things out of context and it happens frequently when discussing scripture. Thank you
@@Blackdawn80 You should have known this one. I’ve read it enough times. Oh that’s right you cherry pick and ignore. Here is a passage from the New Testament
”Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.“
2 Corinthians 5:8 ESV
@@jeffc5474 No, it means if we die our next stop is with our Father, no holding place in between. It doesn't say how long though. If you go to sleep tonight and wake up tomorrow it is morning. You have no perception of how long you were asleep right? The same when you die... you are asleep and know nothing until the resurrection day (during rapture) or the day of judgement after the 1000 years.
Daniel 12:2 KJV
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
John 11:11 KJV
These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
Vast majority of Christians reject the truth to be saved in word of God of a soul sleeps. Old Covenant teach it as the New Covenant. Mal 3:6 God change not!
Acts 2:29,34 KJV
Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. [34] For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
David as all saints are sleeping waiting till 1st resurrection when Christ returns St John 6:40, 14:1-3 take them to heaven for a thousand years Rev 20:4.
if we were born sinners babies would NOT go to heaven as he believes!!!
Thanks be to Creator God-Jesus Christ-Small children who have no knowledge of sin are not ACCOUNTABLE for the SINS they commit. Therefore not one of them will have to go before any JUDGMENT SEAT, EVER. IT MEANS that they will enter into Heaven, if they die BEFORE they become ACCOUNTABLE for their sins. The RC church is UTTERLY WRONG for teaching that babies go to hell iF they die.
Dont we die and await judgment after?
Hebrews 9:27 KJV
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Babies, those who have yet to realize and act upon the free will given to all men in a way that is dishonoring to the Word and Will of the Living God, go to heaven when they die, no different than the unborn who die in the womb.
Those who have been born-again go directly to heaven when they die, first giving their account to the Almighty, then being glorified first before they step into His presence. (2nd Cor. 5:8)
The wicked, those who die in their sins, go directly to hell, and there they remain until after the 1,000-year reign of Christ on this planet, when they will stand before the Lord Jesus Christ at the great white throne of judgement, and then be cast into the lake of fire where they will remain forever.
@@borrowedtruths6955 are saints in Old Testament who died in heaven as well with New Testament saints?
@@KevernEllis Yes. “Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? “He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things. (Eph. 4:8-10)
Paradise was across the great gulf from hell. (Luke 16:26) That gulf is now gone, as well as all those that once were there before the Lord Jesus Christ came to release them and take them home.

John 6:40 KJV
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Message of love. If what I believe is not inline with scripture, I'm willing to let go of error and to follow Christ. However, it seems unfair for a loving God to take all saints to heaven and leave David alone. Furthermore, Jesus said it is at the last day; the resurrection saints will go to heaven to place through His High Priestly ministry Heb 8:1,2, saints will receive mansions in His Fathers house!
Everyone, whether babies, little children, young and old, Christian or pagan, ALL go to the GRAVE when they die. As do animals
Ecclesiastes 3:19 for there is an outcome FOR HUMANS and an outcome FOR ANIMALS; they all have the SAME OUTCOME. As the one dies, so the other dies; and they all have but ONE SPIRIT. So MAN HAS NO SEPERIORITY OVER ANIMALS, for everything is futile. 20 ALL ARE GOING TO THE SAME PLACE. They all come from the dust, and they all are returning to the dust.
There is no life continuity at death. Satan wants people to believe it (Genesis 3:4).
For humans who are in God's memory to come back into existence, God has purposed the RESURRECTIONS (Acts 24:15).
If God is willing that none perish, why does he not show mercy and take them before the age of understanding like you say he did with the lady"s son who the prophet said would be dead before she entered into her home?. Why did God not take Hitler and many others like him before the age of understanding?
You fail to understand free will. Hitler made his choices and by his own deeds he stands forever condemned awaiting a final judgement.
@@jeffc5474 I do not fail to understand free will and believe it. My comment is why did God not take Hitler as a baby Knowing that he would grow up the monster he was. The preacher made a case for the woman's child being taken before he could grow up being evil like his father. Why did God not do the same with Hitler and others like him seeing he is not willing that any should perish.
@@SolidRockMachineShopIncNo, you fail to understand free will and it shows. Remember God is not required to do what you want Him to do. It is not God’s responsibility to stop every evil action. You want God to be a tyrant.
@@jeffc5474 Are you speaking for the preacher of this message or are you speaking for yourself? You must be a very wise man to be able to know what one believes without even knowing the person. Jesus could do this but I doubt there are very many others who can do this. I do believe and understand the free will of man better than most. My questions are valid even apart from the teachings of free will because they are based upon what the preacher is teaching and not on what I believe. Are you a child of God? If so, how and when did you become a child of God? Also, did your free will have anything to do with you becoming a child of God?
If God does that to us all there will be no adults ever except for Jesus. We will never know why God do the things He does, but one day when we are with Him we will understand fully.
Jonah 4:11 has nothing do with mentally or small children !! The whole thrust of God's dealing with Nineveh was a threat of destruction on ALL unless they repent. They were godless and ignorant. They departed from what was known to them in doing right ( Romans chp1). Besides, what is the age of accountability ?
2Sam 12:23 Has absolutely nothing do with Ps 16 a prophetic speech about the Messiah , Jesus body after the crucifixion , also quoted by the apostle in Acts 13:35-38. David is merely pointing out that the child's soul like his will be in Sheol. 'Its most likely' he says. The Bible is not a book that deals with the uncertainties of the likely's, or the somehow's.
Rev20:11-13 Is an unwarranted application of scripture to do with babies having no works to be judged for. At what point in a human life does sin begin to show it's effect? Why does God even wipe the floor with a wicked nation by total destruction including infants ? Gen 18:25 He misses the point of the context . Does Abraham find any righteous , even 1 ? He argues from a rational and sentimental point of view . God destroys the infant of a wicked king to save the child from repeating the wickedness of his father !! How can he say that ? If such could be the case it raises the question , would it be better if we all died as infants ? Do such infants in the economy of saving work of Jesus Christ cover infants that have not ' actually' sinned ? I don't know. We all like to think so , but we cannot give any real solid answers from scripture.
This preacher will lead you to hell straight he don't have clue about Jesus
No body goes to heaven at death.Eccl 127&8.check.
So if our soul returns to God….we go where he is….heaven :)
Babies and true believers go to Heaven and unbelievers go to Hell
According to the word those that have died are asleep and know nothing, until the day or resurrection for the rapture where those that are alive will be called up and those that have died in Christ will rise first. The rest will remain in the grave until day of judgement after the 1000 years. When you are asleep, you have no perception of time and the same when you are dead, so to be absent of body and present with God can be 1 day or 4000 years, you will have no perception of time.
There is no clear scripture saying that babies and mentally handicapped go to Heaven. There is clear scripture saying a true faith in Christ redeems us. If the Bible isn’t clear, we should not make up our own stance even if it does sound compassionate.
Jesus rebuked the disciples saying, ‘let the little children come to me’... telling them, ‘only those who become like these little children will enter the kingdom of God’.
John 3:13. In more than 5 places in John, it is clear that no one goes to heaven. This guy is dangerous.
When God JUDGED THE WORLD in the time of NOAH, the NT says only "EIGHT PEOPLE WERE SAVED". We can safely figure out that the rest went to HELL -- Men, women and CHILDREN. The SAME can be said of SODOM and GOMMORAH. ALL went to HELL. CHRIST SAID that as it was in the DAYS OF NOAH, SO SHALL IT BE AT HIS SECOND COMING. NOWHERE in SCRIPTURE DOES IT SAY THAT CHILDREN WILL BE SPARED FROM HELL. Everyone of us is a BORN SINNER DESERVING OF HELL.
Children are sinless.
@@tracymcdonald8440 you are in error! If that were the case then why was it necessary that Jesus be born of a virgin and from the seed of God not of man??

yes, from the moment my mother conceived me…..
Romans 3:23 23for ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God
NO ONE IS INNOCENT!!
Think about what you are claiming. If what you are claiming is true then having an abortion could be seen as the most loving act a mother could do for her unborn child! If that is the case then I soooooo much wish I myself had been aborted!! Seriously, to bypass this horrendous world and go straight into the Kingdom of God!! Sign me up!!
It doesn’t work that way.
Meditate on this. God knew the end from the beginning. God knew “BEFORE” creation every single soul that would spend eternity in Hell yet He went through with creation anyways. This fact should greatly shape how we read/interpret His Word. God had/has no “need” for man yet we have somehow managed to place ourselves/humanity at the center of the universe.
I am pretty sure it says children and mentally ill are spared.
@@tracer7898 let’s not go with “pretty sure”. Go to the word of God and show us please.
@@maxsmith3335 If you don't mind, I would rater say 'pretty sure' than pretend that I know and give false information. You can find out the truth yourself, it is in the Bible.
Hi
I find it incredibly sad that this pastor-teacher simply doesn't understand the very basic concept of salvation.
Yeshua very clearly taught, as well as the entire Bible, that Salvation is based on a person exercising faith.
The human DNA, genetic soul, and body is corrupted with the death- sin nature. Any person born or conceived on planet Earth is a sinner until born anew through the Holy Spirit's conviction.
Babies and children do not get a free pass.
Babies never and children probable never even knew what is right and what is wrong or even what baptism, salvation and repentance means.... so yes, they will definitely not be held accountable.
@ChildofYHWH77
Hi
Unfortunately that's not a Biblical teaching. The problem that unbelievers or immature believers have is the idea that fits them personally without upsetting the secular world, but at the same time compromising The Biblical narratives.
Let me put this question to you. Does The Lord God Jehovah Adonai Yeshua teach through His Word that abortion is murder?
They will get a chance to be accountable in the millennium, why should babies and mentally impaired get a free ride, would that be fair, what about the child that died a year or 6 months or 24 hours after reaching accountability,so that's why you have the millennium and Satan released at the end of the millennium to test all these babies and mentally impaired, you must remember all those children and mentally impaired will now be fully grown and will have known nothing but joy peace health etc ,so when Satan is released at the end of the millennium he will offer them a better world, you will see the bars , the brothels, the gambling houses will be in full swing, and I imagine that will be appealing to some of these people,as a matter of fact a great amount will throw their lot in with Satan , just think about it they will be like children who have been under the heavy hand of their parents and when they get away to boarding school what happens they let their hair down to put it midely, another thing to think about what percentage of these babies and mentally impaired had they lived would have been Christian or murderer's, thief's etc, just look at Hitler or any despot what if they had died at infancy,they would be in heaven with God for all eternity, a awful scenario that would be ,so you see that's why you have the millennium,this only my view I can't prove this from the bible, food for thought .
