In the lords supper we look upward to God, backwards to Calvary, forward to his coming, inward to ourselves, and outward to each other. - Robby Eversole
Excellent explanation!
Thank you for validating my feelings. I spoke against it on Facebook and was criticized, but I think of the song "I'll be a Friend to Jesus". You would not let someone talk about your family that way and we should not allow this towards Jesus
I was totally disgusted and haven't watched the Olympics. Thank You for the Lesson.
Thank you brothers for this needed discussion. The world and our families need Jesus and I pray for that daily 🙏
"A woman shall not wear a man's garment, nor shall a man put on a woman's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD your God. (Deuteronomy 22:5, ESV)
Great lesson! Love you all
Thank you for showing the cherry-picking by looking and agreeing with one of the Levitical laws and ignoring the rest.
@omargarcia1904 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. 24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. 26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. (Romans 1:21-28, ESV)
@@omxtrician 9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-11)
@@John-3-36 are you taking back the first post? Just because I brought up a problem are you now even further picking and choosing a different verse to suit your case?
So very sad to see their ignorance and indifference We must continue steadfast teaching God's word Great lesson brother may God continue to bless your work
Thank you for what you both do.
Dear Brother Don,
Thank you for talking about this heartbreaking event. But I've been thinking, as a christian, about not supporting the Olympics for other reasons, as well. Every opening and closing ceremony praises and honors Greek gods and goddesses. They are literally performing pagan rituals at these events, and all the athletes are taking part in the pagan rituals (whether they understand they are doing so, or not). Should christians be supportive of pagan religious ceremonies? Also, the immodesty in many of the sports categories is heartbreaking, too. Do "sports activities" make immodesty ok for christians to support and/or participate in? These are all things that seem to have crept into christians' lives and have been made allowable. 💔
I am so appreciative that you have been addressing some of these serious topics. It is comforting to know that men in the church are seeing these dangers and warning the flock. Thank you!!!
I agree with you. I stopped watching the Olympics after I became a Christian a few years ago, in fact, I stopped watching TV altogether. I just can’t sit there and take the continuous blasphemy of the Lord’s name, cursing, sexually immoral things being normalized. I’m thankful for platforms like RUclips where I can watch programs like this and others that edify, and I am happy to be out of the world of mass media and worldly entertainment. If the world approves of it, or pushes it upon the masses, we must question it.
Very well said. Christians need to think even deeper than what we are about supporting these things. Would love to hear Don address these points for all to learn and grow in this!
The Lord will not be mocked..
I don’t watch TV anymore and I’m thankful for that. No desire to watch what the world puts out.
@@savedbychrist504 just curious. Is TV the only way to experience “the world”? Do you also avoid the news paper, facebook, the radio etc?
@@omxtrician Actually yes- I don’t read the newspaper or watch “the news”, since anything relevant to my life I can get from my subscribed Christian outlets on RUclips. I got rid of my Facebook account not long after I became a Christian a few years ago because there were just too many photos and posts that I had on my profile that did not reflect my newfound life as a Christian. I can tell you my life is so much more peaceful and joyful without those mass media outlets taking up my time. I didn’t need them in my life at all, and I’m a much more productive person now - and I find a lot more time in my day to listen to, read, and study scripture, as well as listen to edifying shows like this. Also more time to be with my family and aging mother, and learn new hobbies in my spare time, which has been a blessing. I don’t listen to the radio or secular music anymore- but I love listening to classical music and a cappella hymns that I have on my playlist. Thank you for asking.
I’m not sure why my reply is not showing up on here, but I did respond and will answer again. I actually deleted my Facebook account a few years ago when I became a Christian, and I do not listen to secular music anymore - I enjoy all types of classical and instrumental music and acapella hymns. I don’t watch the news or read newspapers, everything I need that’s relevant to my life I get on Weather apps or through my different subscriptions on RUclips, etc. I am not missing out on anything by disconnecting from these things- I don’t miss it one bit and it’s affected my life positively in so many ways.
The majority of social media i have come across are trying to say it was harmless comedy, not trying to mock the Last Supper.
Come Judgement Day it won't be funny.
@@WLBarton4466 it’s already not funny. It was not a mockery. You should read up on other mythologies, so you can realize there are other scenes and gods and stories out there.
@@omxtrician Not wasting my time on mythology.
Ephesians 5:11 says not to delve into any of that nonsense.
Robbie did our gospel meeting in Williamston South Carolina this year. He did an excellent job, it was excellent meeting him?
I'm glad I didnt see it. It was absolutely disgusting to portray this sacred event in such an evil, diabolic way. They will have to answer to Him for this when their time comes.
Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life 🙏🙏🙏.
AMEN!!!!
Johnny Robertson could use some financial help, also, from the brethren, doing awesome work for the Gospel of Christ.
John the Baptist confronted sin and openly condemned it. Righteous Lot's soul was tormented daily by the sexuality of Sodom and Gomorrah. It is not being thin skinned to speak out against the sin sending people to HELL! We are the light of the world, WE ARE EMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST in a wicked world.
😮 Not acceptable at all! That shows zero respect for our Lord and Savior! Still horribly mocked but still has the last word. MERCY, LORD!
Right, and of course, it's also blaspheme against Christ.
We know there was a lord's supper because the bible tells us so.
The famous lord's supper painting is just a painting, a piece of art. The painter of that piece wasn't even at the actual lord's supper. So we know that painting isn't accurate.
It's no difference then the blue-eyed, long hair painting of Jesus being accurate.
Let's stop idolizing these pieces of art and just continue to stick to the scriptures.
The idea is that the painting depicts the lord’s supper, and them mocking the painting of the lord’s supper is like them mocking the actual lord’s supper.
I totally agree. We none know what the Lord’s supper looked like, but the actual supper with our Lord symbolizes something reverent. It must be respected.
Dear brothers, we must also realize that denominationalism is also blasphemy.
Are we so thin-skinned that we get offended when the world demonstrates how truly lost they are? That's on them; not us. We already knew the gate was narrow. Besides, were you going to watch the Olympics anyway?
I don't understand why we as members of the body are so shocked that worldly people mock Christ and Christianity! Did they not mock and spit on Christ, scourge him and nail him to the cross? I've not heard any brethren express concern for the souls of these people that Christ died for, and the dire need to evangelize as our Lord commanded! That truly saddens me.
@@keithpitts5560, agreed. Years ago, a musician named Al Wilson recorded a song called "The Snake". I'm reminded of the lyrics of that song in situations like this.
It is no surprise. We talk about it to promote holiness, to point out wickedness, and to express our emotions in the matter. To say nothing would deny the bearing of burdens we can offer one another when hurt by the world's sinful display.
@@kent7057, that’s a great way to look at that. I guess I’m so jaded by it all that it makes me angry when Christians seem surprised to discover that there’s an ancient spiritual war raging, and the spoils of this war are our eternal souls.
This is not some ancient drama we read about in the Bible. It’s all around us, every day, in the here-and-now.
Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you; 13 but to the degree that you share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that also at the revelation of His glory you may rejoice with exultation. 14 If you are reviled for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. 15 Make sure that none of you suffers as a murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or a troublesome meddler; 16 but if anyone suffers as , he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name. 17 For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18 And if it is with difficulty that the righteous is saved, what will become of the godless man and the sinner? 19 Therefore, those also who suffer according to the will of God shall entrust their souls to a faithful Creator in doing what is right.
The damage is done and it was intentional. God is not mocked. He is my JeSUS and my Shepherd, too.🎚📖
