I am going to heaven because Jesus died for my Sins. Hallelujah ❤️🙏
This pastor makes everything make sense and sound so clear. Why are not other pastors teaching like this? It's like a child can grasp it. I feel like I have some assurance finally
Thank you Mr. Ralph Arnold for standing boldly for the true Gospel of Grace. I am so thankful that you have not backed down over the years of your ministry. But that you have stood for Faith Alone in Christ Alone (aka "Easy Believism") and are not ashamed. And it also is very encouraging to see you still preaching and contending for the truth even well into your good old age. We appreciate you, Sir. Keep fighting the good fight of Faith! And Godspeed.
It always seems funny to me that people who disagree with Grace call it "Easy Believism" when it's obviously extremely difficult for them to believe...
@@jeannine1739 good point, sister! Valid observation for sure. It is very ironic. Mr. Ralph Arnold also has pointed this out in some of his sermons where he states "If easy Believism is so easy, then why don't most people believe and accept it?"
@@johntrevett2944 Here are some statements that you made that are wrong. They are the results of a Calvinistic belief system that is based on the TULIP. You said……
John: Christian discipleship as proof of salvation: Yankee: This is not true, there are no guaranteed evidence of salvation
John: True faith in Christ will always lead to a changed life. Yankee: This is not true, you may get worst.
John: So, we see that faith, given as a gift by God, is what saves us. Yankee: You know better than that! You know that the Greek will not allow you to put the word it back to faith. You should be ashamed of yourself. Faith is not he gift!! You are in error again.
John: If there is no evidence of growth and good works, we have reason to doubt that salvation. Yankee: If you were to honestly look at your own life to find those evidence of your salvation, it will prove you are not. A lost man can produce your evidence, but it does not save him.
John: We embark on a journey of pre-ordained good works that are the evidence of that salvation. Yankee: The word says in verse 10 that we SHOULD walk in good works. It does not say we MUST or that we WILL. You take to much upon yourself to speak about what you think God meant to say, but he didn’t know how to make it clear.
John: The concept of the “carnal Christian,” is completely unscriptural. Yankee: Really??? Look who Paul is writing to. 1Co 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints. It was the church, they were called sanctified, and saints. 1Co 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. 1Co 3:2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. 1Co 3:3 For ye are yet carnal: Were not these believers carnally minded? The rest of the verse says they were living like lost men. Go study again.
Yankee
@@johntrevett2944 You produced no verses that states that a carnal Christian will only have a temporary time of carnality. Chapter and verse. You first say they didn't exist. If you choose to teach start your own channel. I will not permit the dangerous teaching of Calvinism here. Since you did not answer my points made, unless you ask one question at a time I will delete your comment. Yankee
"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9,10)
"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God." (Galatians 5:19-21)
"For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience." (Ephesians 5:5,6)
"Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." (Hebrews 12:14)
"For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire." (2 Peter 2:20-22)
"But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." (Paul, in 1 Corinthians 9:27)
Yankee is my favorite preacher. I was struggling with Lordship Salvation/works proving I'm saved after listening to Ray Comfort witness to people, and a bad teaching at my church from Matthew chapter 7. I thought "since I cannot stop sinning, am I really saved". It is stressful trying to be good enough to be accepted by God. I asked God to give me the truth and that night I found Yankee Arnold explaining difficult passages on RUclips. I thank God for directing me to your videos Mr. Arnold. I also like your accent, haha. May you and your wife live to be 120.
This preacher has helped me to understand the gospel better than any other preacher that I have ever heard preach it.❤❤❤
The very first thing I believed about our religion was that Jesus died for our sins.
Yet for all this time I've struggled with my innermost feelings that I'm not a good Christian because I still sin and worrying constantly do I do this or do that and will god forgive me
Watching your video has made it clear as day what I always knew but never realised thank you so much brilliant video x
Glad to hear it! 2024 is a dangerous place for a Christian because there is VERY few sound doctrine online. It's there but it's 1% of the 99% false doctrine. Check out Edwardpf123
If more Christians understood this, they’d live in victory! The true message of the gospel is freedom for those that believe!!“ You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free”
Thank you Yankee. ❤️
A few years ago God led me to find you online when I began struggling with the assurance of my salvation. Thank you brother Arnold for reminding me what I believed and trusted in 1982... that Jesus paid for All of my sins. God bless you. You are always in my prayers.
He has helped me with assurance of salvation also, God bless him and God bless you!
The Bible is God's Word to us. It's the truth we can be sure if instead of feelings. I find Psalms, proverbs and Matthew great books to start.
Sure can! But who would want to after such a wonderful free gift of salvation!
Exactly, but unless one studies Paul. And really puts the pieces together ... you don't 'get' ( understand ) Grace. Most Christians are mired in lordship salvation and mixing up Hebraic legalism with Pauline doctrine. Shoot, most of christendumb ignores Paul.
Exactly, how you live has absolutely nothing to do with salvation at all.
I serve God faithfully out of love and gratitude for the free gift of salvation, certainly not because I have to.
Can anybody show me a verse that says, a believer can live like the devil and can still go to heaven?
@@JesseMgala watch more of his videos
@@JesseMgala Eph 2:8-9 Ever hear of Grace? What do you think it means? Yankee
Thank you Mr. Arnold for nailing down eternity security of the believer, you have helped me personally and I'm sure thousands of others have been blessed because you take such a strong stand on Biblical salvation in your preaching and teachings.
Trusting and believing in his blood alone of the Lord Jesus christ
Another great teaching. Thank you, Pastor Arnold!
Grace Williams, in UK
This is the only message worth giving!! Its why we have bible camp for kids
At 52:36, he reminded me of a Billy Sunday quote, "Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you an automobile."
THANK YOU YANKEE
I'm so thankful for the grace of God which saved me!
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Thank you Pastor for preaching the truth in Salvation!!!!
Amen pastor your preaching has brought me so much peace and truth Jesus paid it all thank you my Lord and Savior
Lordshippers affirms Faith Alone In Christ Alone and then they add a BUT, with a long list of promises, commitments, willing commitments, stop enough, turn enough, give enough surrender, live Holy enough, produce enough fruit, and 50 other random, immeasurable things that must be fulfilled by the believer in order to "Qualify for saving faith." It's blatantly performance based. "Should" our faith grow in maturity and strive to reach perfection and completion? Of course. Will every one succeed and have an immaculate Christian walk? No. That's why we rely on Christ.
I’ve written the same as you in Calvinist channel comments sections and the aggressive responses are incredible! Even obscene comments without a reasonable counter argument. Keep up the good work Sean!
Everybody lives like the devil. Is our old nature it can't stop sinning. Is. The new. One that is perfect and do not sin. But the old one always does.
Amen , its a good question to ask it separates the sheep from the goats.
Thank you Pastor for this message. For someone who has been in Lordship salvation in decades this is an encouragement. God bless you.

"But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die." (Ezekiel 18:24)

@@preparingthewayofthelord6906 It's a good thing that we are not under any covenant at all today during the dispensation of God's grace. Keep on misquoting Paul, though....
You are twisting scripture like a typical self-righteous works trusting salvationist who has not trusted in Christ alone 100% for salvation. Here are passages to refute your deception and misunderstanding of the imputed righteousness of Christ when we believe on Him.
1 Corinthians 3:13-15 KJV
every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
Acts 16
30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house
2 Corinthians 11
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
Romans 1
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Romans 3
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
Romans 4
4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Romans 5
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 10
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Romans 11
6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
Ephesians 1
13 When you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and when you believed in Him, you were also sealed with the promised Holy Spirit. 14 He is the down payment of our inheritance, for the redemption of the possession, to the praise of His glory.
Ephesians 2
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Titus 3
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
2 Timothy 1
8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;
9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
Galations 2
16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Philippians 3
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
1 John 5
5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
1 Peter 1
4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
2 Peter 3
18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.
I have a question. Is Colossians 2:11 talking about when we die, our spirit and soul are finally separated from our flesh, that is, we should think of ourselves as dead to sin and circumcised from the flesh through Christ once we believe, but our actual death is when the the circumcision takes place? Thank you, Mr. Arnold and praise God our Father and our Lord Jesus for preachers like you.
It's possible, but God forbid (Romans 6:1)
The Lord... "scourgeth every son whom he receiveth." (Hebrews 12:6)
And... "the way of transgressors is hard." (Proverbs 13:15)
So true.
Exactly 😊.
I serve God faithfully out of love and gratitude for the free gift of salvation, I certainly don't have to.
Also, I fear chastisement.
The false prophets were, and are still, the ones who tell people repentance is not required.
This was fantastic! Very happy to have found your channel! Very few Bible believing pastors out there preaching the actual Truth! Keep doing what you’re doing! God Bless You!!
Amen brother and please keep up the good work.
You've got a few trolls down through the comments section.
I've done my best to counter their arguments 😜.
God bless you brother.
I live in Bradenton Florida. Where can I find a church that teaches like this? Hope you're continuing to heal, Pastor Arnold!
For 12 years, I was pastor of Calvary Community Church of Tampa. Pastor Jesse Martinez has been there almost 2 years and preaches exactly like I do. Give him a try, you are close. 4811 George Rd. Tampa, Fla. 813-334-4655 Yankee
Thanks so much!
@@gwenlucas4200 Who said that I was out of balance? Your disagreement with my teaching doesn't make me wrong. I have over 400 messages on my youtube channel, Look for the balance between salvation and service. Thank you, Yankee Please don't promote other people's material on my sight.
*_Note the "if"s:_*
"For *if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die:* but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." (Romans 8:13,14)
Eternal life can only be received by grace through faith in Christ.
@@scriptureplz9045 Jesus is
"the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him" (Hebrews 5:9)
True *_believers_* as those who (like Abraham) ACT on their faith and obey God. Otherwise their faith is dead. James used Abraham's example to illustrate this in James 2:20-24.
Like Ephesians 2:8 says, we come to saving grace *_"through"_* faith . . . not just because we *_have_* faith. Whatever faith we have is DEAD unless we act on it and obey God.
Who gets saved? Jesus is
"the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him" (Hebrews 5:9)'
===========================================
We are commanded to repent. (Acts 17:30)
Follow directions, confessing and forsaking sin, and we'll receive God's promised mercy (Proverbs 28:13) and
Our past sins will be "blotted out" (Acts 3:19, Romans 3:25, 2 Peter 1:9) and
We'll enter "the presence of the Lord" (Acts 3:19) by receiving the gift of the holy spirit, which God gives "to them that obey Him" (Acts 5:32).
Through the holy spirit Jesus will guide us, helping us grow up spiritually, leading us out of slavery to sin (Revelation 3:19).
While we abide in Jesus in repentance, following the holy spirit, we remain in *justification* -not under condemnation. (Romans 8:1)
While we abide in Jesus in repentance, following the holy spirit, we remain "in His goodness" or grace (Romans 11:22).
While we abide in Jesus in repentance, following the holy spirit, He advocates for us with the Father (1 John 2:1) and
Jesus covers - present tense - any new sin by His blood (1 John 1:7).
While we abide in Jesus in repentance, following the holy spirit, we have "the hope of salvation" (1 Thessalonians 5:8,9);
While we abide in Jesus in repentance, following the holy spirit, we have the "promise" of the gift of eternal life (1 John 2:25).
If we "endure to the end" we'll be saved (Matthew 10:22).
If we endure to the end we'll receive the gift of eternal life at Jesus' "revelation" -His return (1 Peter 1:13, 1 Cor 15:50-54, 1 Thess 4:13-17).
==============================================
Outside of obedience, outside of repentance, we received none of the promised mercy (Prov 28:13) and our sins remain, not blotted out (Acts 3:19). Therefore we will perish, as Jesus and Peter warned:
"except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Jesus, in Luke 13:5)
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." (2 Peter 3:9)
==============================================
What did Jesus tell His disciples to preach? "Faith alone"??? "Just trust Jesus"??? No.
"Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
And that *repentance and remission of sins* should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem." (Luke 24:45-47)
@@preparingthewayofthelord6906 I'm sure you take great pride in your "obedience" to God and have the utmost confidence in *yourself* to be a child of God then.
However, if you really knew what scripture teaches rather than just how to regurgitate it, you would recognize to "obey" God is to believe the gospel in the passage you cited. This was covered in the video message, which I'm sure you never listened to.
Genuine believers crucify the flesh. Not to get saved but rather it us the natural result of being saved.
Galatians 5:24
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts
@@ValerieJean757 you're understanding of this is not based on scripture but the teaching of man. Best to find some new teachers.
Peter is speaking of "genuine" believers in this passage.
2 Peter 1
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
According to the apostle Peter, it's possible for "genuine" believers to become "barren" or "unfruitful" and could possibly even forget they were "purged" of their sins. Doesn't sound like they would be "crucifying" their flesh to me. Take the focus off of yourself and put it on Christ where it belongs. Then your understanding can be from the Spirit of God rather than man's teaching.
“To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life.” Romans 2:7
Repent or perish. Those who practice unrighteousness are of the devil according to 1st John.
Good Morning! Pastor can you explain 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 where it talks not to be deceived those who practice and it listed will not inherit the Kingdom of God. I believe what you are preaching just wondering about this passage.
Hope this helps, Yankee The Clear Gospel Explains Difficult Passages

The facts are we are born into a freshly sinful body and world cursed by God ! Jesus died on the cross and rose on the 3rd day shed his blood for all sin for anyone who has faith in Jesus and believes are saved through faith and washed and covered in the blood cause Gog knew we couldn’t be perfect only Jesus could be perfect without sin ! Once saved always saved we all stumble anyone says their perfect they are lying 🤥

Will his prophecy for tonight’s service he was speaking about not to miss will it be uploaded to RUclips today sometime ?

Click the link. It is there. Yankee
What does it mean ' by their fruits you shall know them'?
Read all chapter. He also says 'be aware of false prophets..., you shall know them (false prophets) by their fruits (their teachings, doctrine), because speak lies
What he means is that their salvation is permanent; it could never be lost under any circumstance, even *_if_* one were to live like the devil. Of course, ungodly conduct would never be allowed in the church.
John 16:8
And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
It also is true that the Holy Spirit after God washes you in the blood of His Son and sets you free He will not permit you with His conviction to go and sin so wickedly and live like the devil at all.
1 John 5:13 Amen and God Bless.
Yankee is probably best preacher alive today
There's a minority of Pastors or evangelicals or Christians that agree with your theology and I am proud of being in the minority by the grace of God, I am now a free grace defender of truth biblically. I do really understand the eternal salvation of Jesus Christ's words himself in John5:24 and John6:40 very strong evidence once a person believes in him(Jesus Christ) has already eternal life, it's a present position. Also in 1John5:13, a believer like me had an assurance of eternal life.
JOHN CH 3 VS 16 IS MY VERSE 4 REDEMPTION 4 EVER
Why!??? Can't those Lordship salvationist and Calvinist law abiders SEE this SIMPLE gospel message?
The Gospel is so simple!
The works of the Law by the flesh only produces death.
Anotherwards...the more one tries to obey the law the more it shows the death that sin produces.
For the wages of sin is death, but the GIFT of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Because the churches that preach opposite of Yankee's messages tickle the parishioner's ears with self, self, self. They love to hear how they are "helping" Christ in their salvation. They love the praises of men.
2 John 1:9
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son
Do we have to believe the gospel word for word in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 for salvation, or is believing that Jesus Christ died for my sins and rose from the dead enough?
"except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Jesus, in Luke 13:5)
Peter wrote: come to repentance, or else perish:
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." (2 Peter 3:9)
"And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent" (Paul, in Acts 17:30)
"He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy." (Proverbs 28:13)
"Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things by the things which he suffered;
And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation *unto all them that obey him"* (Hebrews 5:8,9)
It is the concept, not a word for word idea. The New Testament wasn't even written in English. If you believe Jesus died for your sins and rose from the dead and that you get eternal life by believing that you understand it
You have to believe it for yourself - that you are a sinner in need of saving, and that there is only one person can do this for you, and that person is Jesus Christ, the son of God, who was perfectly sinless and who paid the sin penalty for you by dying on the cross. You have to not just think it in your head in a general sense for humanity itself. But, you have to believe in Him for yourself that Jesus died for you, was buried, and was resurrected and now sits at the right hand of God. He has saved you and is saving you.
A believer is one who knows he needs a Saviour because he can’t be righteous before God by his own effort.
I guess that if I had died during the first twenty years of my walk I would indeed have gone to be with the Lord. But in all those years I knew I was wrong. I wasn't terribly wrong, I just couldn't ... no I wouldn't stop chasing women. I was addicted. Little by little the Holy Spirit whittled away at me along with my aging. Then I came to Pauline Dispensationalism and the true doctrine of Grace. I look at mature adult people that claim to know Jesus and still live in real sin and I guess they just have a stronger will than I have. I broke by about 45. It just take longer for some people. And then of course there are those who make the claim but are lying.
The question is what is sin? They may be committing sins that we consider *more* sinful, but even if they weren't they still sin and are sinning deeply whether it is unforgiveness, or anger, or doubt, or self-will etc - they still sin and that is what the Lordshipper, "religious" person believes. They are depending and trusting in themselves. They think they can earn their salvation and are good people, believing they are good enough. They do not understand that they are looking at the external and that God says our righteousness is as filthy rags. Or, that they can never be perfect as a holy God demands, which is why Christ came to Earth to die on the cross for us. He only could pay that sinless, perfect, one-time sacrifice for all who would believe in him. They do not understand the gospel of grace that the apostle Paul taught. He wasn't saying be perfect or else - he was saying perfection is in Christ.
OJ Simpson claimed to be a believer. Who knows what he meant by calling himself a "Christian" however. He is no longer with us to ask what he believed in.
Sin is the nature of the devil. So when I’m born again I still have the nature of the devil? I need some clarification.
28:14
yes, one still has the sin nature after salvation.
31:40 < the new birth (aka born-again), the result of which one receives a new spirit and heart.
36:01
Trust me he or she can but God does discipline his children.
Yes he does but Apostle Paul said he was the King of all Sinners and the Church of Corinthians was full of Sinning Idol worshippers that were doing all kinds of Nasty Sins but yet, Paul loved this Church and called those Rascals , My Little Babies in Christ ! He knew they were sinning and Gossiping but he still loved them !
Thats why they told Paul you cant preach that thats why he said I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (to Good to be true news) and its for us
A baby is not lying and deceiving-went too far there. An infant cannot get up and change itself, feed itself, it has needs.
Luke 8
The seed is the word of God.
12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation Fall Away.
14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
How does the Devil live???
I love your sermons but I have a suggestion for your demonstration about the flesh that sins, and the spirit that doesn't. Shouldn't the right hand represent the spirit and the left hand represent the flesh? I believe there is Scripture to support that? In the Bible, to be at the right side "is to be identified as being in the special place of honor".
55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

AAAAAAA MMMMMMMEEEEENNNNN REDEEMED MEANS REDEEMED 4 EVER NOT ON PROBATION
Only Jesus Christ knows if a person is truly saved. When a person hears the gospel and with a repentant heart asks Jesus Christ to save them, Jesus Christ immediately indwels them with the Holy Spirit and they are spiritually born again and they know it because they immediately have joy and peace in their heart. Assurance of salvation is putting your faith in Jesus Christ and his Word. A true Christian now has the freewill to yield to the Holy Spirit and access the fruits of the Spirit and allow Christ to work in and through them thus honoring and glorifying God or they can of a freewill yield to their freshly desires and sin against God and loose their fellowship with Jesus Christ but they can never loose their relationship as sons of God through Jesus Christ their redeemed. When a true Christian sins the Holy Spirit convicts their heart and they don't have joy and peace until they ask Jesus Christ for forgiveness and have their fellowship restored. We should with brotherly love encourage such a person to turn away from that sin and to be restored in Christ.
"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9,10)
"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God." (Galatians 5:19-21)
"For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience." (Ephesians 5:5,6)
Context, context, context. 1 Cor 6: 1 and 6: 6 give you the contrast between two people groups, the saved Corinthians vs. unrighteous unbelievers. 1 Cor 6: 11 "but you were justified" is in the Passive, Indicative, or in other words, it's already a completed action which immediately occurred upon BELIEF.
Good. You know the law - the Old Testament. But then came along a man named Jesus, fully God and fully man, and he died on a cross to forgive us of every sin you listed if we just believe. It’s the Gospel and can be found in the New Testament.
The sin lists are pertaining to the lost who according to James 2: 10, are guilty of all.
How you live has absolutely nothing to do with salvation at all.
That's a service issue, nothing to do with salvation at all.
Just remember Ananais and Sapphira, they went to Heaven earlier than expected.
God chastiseth every son He recieveth, avoid chastisement, live Godly.
Preparing the Way of the Lord,
You quoted v 9-10 but you NEGLECTED v 11!
1 Corinthians 6: 11. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
WE, BELIEVERS are NOT among those in v9-10 which we WERE before we believed. BUT we are now washed, sanctified and justified!
You also quoted Ephesians 5 v 5-6, AND you also CONVENIENTLY LEFT OUT v 7-8.
Ephesians 5: 7. Be not ye therefore partakers with them. 8. For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
Paul told us believers NOT to be partakers BECAUSE we are light in the Lord, so, we should walk in light NOT in darkness which we WERE once upon a time BEFORE we believed!
We are commanded to tell the WHOLE TRUTH not HALF-TRUTH like what the snake did in the garden of Eden. Use the word of God in totality and in context.
We as children of light, should of course walk in light BECAUSE we are children of light. Titus 2: 11. For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12. Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
However, the sad truth is some believers may not walk appropriately.
An unbeliever can also do good works but he is still an unbeliever. A believer is defined by what he believes NOT what he does.
A believer who minds the world will definitely follows the course of the world. But he is still a believer.
If one has to be sinless evidenced from living a sinless life to be saved, then NO ONE can be saved because the SCRIPTURE says Romans 3: 23. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
AND
SCRIPTURE also says one can ONLY be justified by His grace through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on the cross!
Romans 3: 24. Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Oh yes! Jesus said this 👇🏼
Mark 2: 17. When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Jesus didn’t come for those who THINK they are righteous by their own effort! Jesus came for those who know they need a Saviour because they can’t be righteous by themselves.
Very good. BUT Except Rom.7 is clearly speaking of unregenerated , born under law. We don’t have a sin nature. We have the flesh. Two different things
The formula is simple. Eternal life = Faith in Christ + 0.
You might want to reconsider that. Because Jesus is
"the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him" (Hebrews 5:9)
Here's Hebrews 5:8 and 9 together:
"Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things by the things which he suffered;
And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him" (Hebrews 5:8,9)

If you do not justify the dead in Him you do not trust in the blood. They believed for a time they immediately stumble and you judge them unworthy because you who judge others you do the same.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.-Mathew 7:21
And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. 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.-John 6:35-40

Now last I checked He is the authority and it seems very clear to me as written in John that all might believe and be saved means ALL. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved. The measure you use shall be measured unto you that is also what He said.
And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.-John 12:23-24
And there is the measure of a true disciple. How many of you will deny Him right now?
For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.-Romans 4:3-8

19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

Wrong proposition. A believer cease to be a believer if he does not observe what he believes. He is just a pretender.
A believer cannot live like the devil, the devil is actively trying to turn people away from God and blasphemes God. He is in constant rebellion. When you turn to Christ you receive a gift of the Holy Spirit. Read 1 John, it even states someone who is of God cannot practice sin or sin continually. No amount of good works can save us, and we are indeed saved by grace, but we receive the Holy Spirit who is not inactive in our lives.
That is backloading the gospel message with works, talking out of both sides of your mouth.
Yes, in as much as salvation is absolutely free, yes, you could live like the devil and still go to Heaven.
However, God chastiseth every son He recieveth, avoid chastisement, live Godly.

All works can prove in an already saved person is their level of Christian maturity, nothing else!
Everyone thinks living like the devil is being out there sinning up a storm. But, he's also sitting in a pew in a church.
The passage is not saying that we do not practice sin or continually sin. The point is that we are sinners who sin, because we have that sin nature, the flesh, that sins whether in thought, word, or deed. We can never be perfect (sinless) until we have been redeemed by Christ and we no longer have a corruptible body, but have an incorruptible body at the resurrection/rapture. We are not denying that we sin, because those that say they don't sin do not know Christ. It is that in this body we will sin, but in our glorified body we will not sin. Positionally, we are in Christ and do not sin (spiritually, the 'new man'). In this sinful flesh we are in we do sin. We all sin to one degree or another and no one can be perfectly not sinning. The point is that we acknowledge that we sin and do not deny that we are a sinner.

@@jk11222 I agree with you, we are all sinners. I’m not sure you really read what I commented. There is a difference between being a sinner and practicing sin after one is already saved… not before. We are saved by faith through Grace and not of works… but we receive the Holy Spirit after we are saved. We are then declared righteous because of our faith in Jesus, the righteous do not want to sin, so they attempt to live according to God’s will and the Holy Spirit helps out… of course we don’t stop sinning. But the one who practices sin instead of righteousness does not care about his or her sin, and do it continually. The Bible makes it clear that those who practice sin and sin continually aren’t of God.
