    Jesus, Friend of Sinners by Casting Crowns
    Written by Matthew West and Mark Hall
    Track 3, Come to the Well 2011
    made with iMovie
    Sorry for a few mistakes I made in the video! :)
    I OWN NOTHING.
    Due to a personal conviction, I am deleting all pro-homosexual comments. No, I'm not perfect. But, if your Christian best friend was having an affair, would it be OK to watch it happen? Romans 6:1-2, Proverbs 27:6

      -and that is true for me as well :^)
      19.25 years clean from crack. THANK YOU JESUS!
      I was so backslidden. Yet when I wanted out of that lifestyle and the abusive relationship that led to it, Jesus saved my life with a miracle. He totally shielded me from a big pan of hot grease being dumped on me by that angry man. It should have hit me from the waist down, but not one drop touched me.
      God is so good!
      I'm nobody at all, just a sinner who loves my Saviour, and has experienced His great love and mercy.
      Edit: on 6/6/17 I celebrate 20 years clean from crack.(Did it for 1.5 yrs.)
      Glory to our God in Heaven! I'm going to have a party on that day.
      He who has been forgiven much, loves much.
      I LOVE YOU LORD! :-)

    This song is really close to my heart. I was an atheist, I hated anything to do with church, I did drugs and was just all around stupid. Everytime I listen to CC I'm reminded that every soul can be saved, even people like I was. Jesus didn't come to stand among the saints, but to walk among and heal the sinners. I'm so happy I realized that and have become one of his people.

      Actually The Bible does say that God hates sin and those who do sin (example, Psalm 5:5) but he loved us enough that he sent Christ to die for that sin. Those who've been saved in Jesus' name are looked upon as though they never sinned, but those who haven't accepted the sacrifice of Christ are still under that wrath.

      +Laura Rangel Every time you ask forgiveness and turn from your sin, God sends that sin farther away than even he can reach. The moment you ask forgiveness it is forgiven. The only one who keeps record of your sins in spades is the Devil himself, I've dealt with that guilt before.

God bless you all!

      One cannot be lead to Christ through Hatred and Condemnation. These preachers have the right idea, but the wrong heart. We are to judge righteously, not judge in hatred. Even the Bible says "To take a spec out of your brother's eye, first take the log out of your eye."

    "Break our hearts for what breaks yours" this hit me pretty hard. I think as just being natural people, we want to go through struggles, battles, addictions on our OWN and try to make plans to help OURSELVES get through whatever situation there ought to be. I know for one that I have been in that boat but I think something that God has put on my heart recently is just simply, the heart. The word grace is something that I have been more interested in too, like the past couple days and to tell you the truth I haven't really understood it fully. But God has reminded me that he died for you and me not because of anything we have done, but what HE has done for us. For his grace and mercy is what saves us. So to top this off I think it's important to take the fix off ourselves and put it on HIM.

    If only more Christians remembered this. But instead, most Christians prefer to spend their time attacking those they are to save. In the Bible, Jesus ate dinner with the ones who were sinners, and condemned the righteous men who wanted to trample all over them. Even nowadays there are many examples of this. Look at Westboro, attacking EVERYONE from gays to musicians and their audiences to funerals. If Jesus came to earth today, I am willing to bet that rather than attacking them, He would eat with them. Christians are beginning to look more and more like the Pharisees and Sadducees. So, please, ask yourself this: Am I representing Christ, or a Pharisee?

And Im talking about all singers ever, not just Christian. This guy has true talent and something special a true gift, and also obviously the band is pretty great. But he has a truly remarkable singing voice, lovely man too of course and awesome songs but Im just so taken with what a marvellous singer, both he and Mac Powell rock my world. Mercy Me is the other in.my top 3 as far as great Christian music, a lot of good UPLIFTING message type songs. Mac is good on the love of God and praise, Casting Crowns has a good mix of just about everything Christian, and their melancholy but inspirational in particular resonates with me, but just so many good songs, I never tire of them, I do have my favourites but basically most are pretty good

    I have a project I my english class where I need to make a music video and I was looking for a song to use that helped prove that Christians aren't the evil people that the media has made them out to be like recently with how many "Christians" have been hypocrites and making everyone confused about the bible and what it says. Love the sinners, hate the sin... A simple moral that is often ignored

It is now my love for God that has made me stop breaking his heart and our relationship!

      Sin is the thing that blocks of our relationship with God, before sin we could have fellowship with Jesus but when sin was introduced it blocked of our relationship. If you deny your sins then there is no way you can repent and have fellowship with Jesus once again. He is friends with everyone it's sin that allows people to stray farther from his light. Jesus wants the best for you.

    This song makes me very humble. It makes me think of someone who I need to apologize to. I was just stupid,full of selfish pride, and immature, back when I was in the 10th grade. I like the part where he says, we have cut people in your name, and the sword was never ours to swing. No body knows what we are for only what we are against when we judge the wounded. Well, this song broke my heart. May God's love endure forever in your hearts! God bless to all.

    Sheri Luv
    Please pray for me. My soul is embedded in the worst possible pain daily. I come from a negative, divided, confused, cursed family that has negative dislike toward another. Majority of my family aren't married. Whoever we encounter that we like or want to be friends with or be in a relationship with, negative souls ALWAYS encounter us & bring more hell, more frustration, more misery, more sadness, more yelling, more fighting, more pain, more confusion, more hurt in our lives. Positive souls reject us. For me growing up, I was the only child with no friends. I was raised by my mother & grandmother. There were no other kids on the street that I lived on. We lived in front of a church. I never had the blessing of friendship, I never had the blessing of any sincere true friends, I never had the blessing of any friends period. I was always & still am lonely. People never wanted to be my friend. I couldn't relate to other people. People made fun of me when I was in school. It's been like this my whole life. Since I graduated from school back in 2008, I never had the blessing of going to college, I never had the blessing of ever having a woman in my life, I never had the blessing of my first kiss from a girl, I never had the blessing of ever having a job, I never had the blessing of having any male figures in my life to teach me how to be a man, my father was never around & wasn't the type of father that was there for me. I never had the blessing of experiencing & getting out in life, I lack learning how to be a responsible young man. I suffer from a learning disability in terms of not being wise & becoming a good listener. When my mother was pregnant with me, my great-grandmother told my mom that the guy she got pregnant with was shockingly a relative. Had my mom knew earlier, I wouldn't be here today. She told me that she did not plan on having me. I was an accident to be here on this earth. That's another hurt that I live with. I suffer from a lot of other hurt, hell & pain daily. The woman that I truly love, that's an incarnate angel sent from the gates of God's Kingdom of heaven, rejected me & married a dangerous, hood, hustler, thugged out staff sergeant that looks like the birth of a murderer. This rare incarnate angel from heaven liked me & told me that she was sure that we'd be friends for a very long time. I poured out my blessings to this angel sent from the gates of heaven, by sending her flowers, cards, candy & gifts to her. The most I've ever done for a woman in my entire life. It was also the first time I ever sent a woman flowers. I touched her heart & made her smile by telling my thoughts to her. I wont ever forget her being in awe & told me that she was sure that we'd be friends for a very long time. Then a few months later, she suddenly takes a trip with a guy, gets proposed & asked to marry him right in front of the white house. The incarnate angel that God & Jesus made shockingly said "Yes". That killed my soul. She got her marriage license & is with him now. No matter how hard I cry my soul out to God, Jesus & Holy Spirit everyday to revive my soul from that pain, I'm not healed & it's hard to move on from a deep hurt that takes you life of soul away because I truly love her. She is one in a zillion souls in this life that God & Jesus made rare, so rare that you just don't come across a soul as beautiful as hers. Sometimes I ask & think to myself, "it's bad enough that I suffer from majority of everything here on this earth, why would a angel from heaven reject me"? I truly love that Angel from heaven. She is everything & different from any other soul here on earth. My soul is so hurt, ripped & destroyed in sadness from the love I have for her. There's not a day that I don't think of her. It's hard to erase her out my mind. I have prayed for God's Will to be done that I have her as my Ultimate Blessing in life. I don't want people or God, Jesus & Holy Spirit to think I'm covet or lusting after her now that she has her marriage license. Some people got controversial, wanted to say I did & thought that I put this angel first before God & that's a lie. My soul has a hole inside that's filled with a water fountain of tears inside each day. I always put God, Jesus & The Holy Spirit first. I suffer from a lot of other pain such as horrible folliculitis, alopecia. My skin has been prone to folliculitis since 2013 of May. The dermatologist can only give me ointments & antibiotics, but neither of them have helped my skin heal completely, I still get sores, dark spots & bumps. I also learned that I have alopecia a few years back as well & I'm going back in my 20's. I strained my eyes by vomiting real bad in 2010 & I strained my eyes. The veins in my eyes have been permanently damaged & my eyes have been inflamed since then. The glands in my eyes swell up daily since then. I went to several eye doctors here in my city & they act like they couldn't identify my diagnosis. I'm still in constant pain to this day. I finally went to see another eye doctor. He examined my eyes & said that I have GLAUCOMA. He wanted me to get an MRI, to get to the real root of my problem & find out more about the condition of my eyes. But my health insurance did not pass through so I can get an MRI. I'm still suffering in excruciating pain with my eyes & my eye doctor said that there isn't anything else he could do for me. I have to wait another six months to see him. So I'm still in pain daily. My optic nerve, the root of my eyes keep shooting piercing pains inside the core of my eyes. I'm afraid & don't want to go blind. I cry in pain at night daily. So please pray that God who sit of the Great Powerful Holy Throne In heaven, Jesus Christ Of Nazareth & The Power Of The Holy Spirit will please heal my eyes, hear & read my prayers on here. Another pain that I suffer from is infection from facial ingrown hair that curls back inside my skin. I suffer in the worst pain. I put God, Jesus & Holy Spirit first & so does my family. My family & I are born-again Christians. Some people in my family look at God's word & scriptures & interpret them differently. I just got through arguing with my family about God's word in the bible & want to say that I'm the confused one. I don't EVEN like to argue, especially about God's Power Holy Words in the scripture!!!!!! I'm so hurt, torn & tired of negativity, confusion, frustration, arguing in my life & family. We all feel like chickens with our heads cut off & its always frustration, poverty, being poor our whole lives, more hell, more misery. NEVER A POSITIVE OUTCOME. My family & I try to strive to stay positive each day as well, but differently. It's always division in my family. Sometimes I've told my family that maybe in heaven we (my family) won't be having negative differences of opinion & that we will all be in positive peace. It broke my heart to tell some people in my family that because there's always controversy. I want God, Jesus & Holy Spirit to PLEASE! 100x times please break this curse in the souls of my family & my life. Please ask God, Jesus & Holy Spirit to please help me overcome my fear of driving. I just had a car accident months ago. I have never been the one eager to drive fast like a lot of young people these days. At 25, I still don't know how to drive. I'm determined to drive. I want God who sit on the throne in heaven to please help me overcome that fear & please be with me in Jesus name. I pray for my bipolar next door mean neighbor that always lies that my family & I bother her. That's another hurt I been dealing with for years too. My mom almost passed away from a blood clot back in 2012. I prayed, cried & gave God praise that she is still here. My grandmother's house got broken in 3 times from 2011 - 2014 & took some sentimental items that cannot be replace. Every month of June, something bad always happens the worst. Whether its a death, someone breaking in our vehicles, an apartment being on fire, me almost getting arrested one time & a relative getting beat up. It's always hell & confusion in this family. I pray to God who sit on the throne in heaven, Jesus Christ & holy spirit that they will please send me a positive sincere loving angel from God's Powerful Great Holy Throne in heaven & beautiful children that have special souls from heaven. A month ago, A 10 year old anonymously emailed & told me that "God sent me to tell you that he has great big plans for you". That brought tears to my eyes & my soul. I NEVER had that happened to me either. I believe that God who sit on the great powerful throne in heaven, Jesus Christ Of Nazareth & The Power Of The Holy Spirit heard my prayers. I was at the store last month & a woman felt like something in her soul needed her to pray over me, so she did. That has never happened to me in my 25 years of breathing on this earth. I told her that GOD & Jesus must have whispered in her soul & sent you to pray over me. She said "yes". Then I told her about my life & the pain that I live with. She was so touched & moved, she sent me a flyer to her church because they had a Men's Conference about Men becoming more stronger through CHRIST JESUS. So I told her I'll go to the invitation on May 1- 3rd, 2015. I went to the 2015 Men's Conference & it was a blessing of an experience. I got to hear from different speakers from Apostle, Bishop, Doctor & Prophet talking about different topics such as Spiritual Warfare, Wearing & Being An Amor Of God. I'm still reading my bible, worshiping & praying to God, Jesus & Holy Spirit every single day. Everyday its hard for me to survive in this poor hard life. My soul is weak, lost, damaged, in pain daily. I don't have the blessing of having a car. I still live with my mom & the guy that she's been with for 12 years is going to marry her. Me & him don't get along well. Him & my mom argue, he loves to yell. I almost had to break up a fight between them recently. My mom got on me & told me not to interfere with them fighting because if it happens next time, he's going to put his hands on me & fight me & I don't want to fight. I was just being a peace maker. I don't want to live with them when they get married. I feel so stuck in my four wall room every single day since I graduated back in 2008. Being lonely everyday, never having the blessing of any friends to talk to or blessing of getting out to experience life is a pain, struggle, heartache. I've tried finding jobs, finding ways to get out of the house. I don't have a car & I'm still suffering from everything. Even if I had transportation or money, I'm still scared to get out in life period because I don't know how to be a strong, wise, responsible young man to know how to achieve my goals & survive. I am weak minded in my soul & whole body. I've been like that all my life. My soul feels permanently destroyed in sadness from all the hurt that I just told you. I don't hold onto grudges, I don't blame anyone. Why I say this, is because in my other prayer posts on youtube, anonymous people read my comments & don't understand my hurt. They want to be so critical, thinking that I'm self-centered & want attention. They look at things the wrong way & don't have a clue about what goes on in my life. Please keep me in your prayers daily. Also please pray for my hand. Please pray that God will heal my left hand. I went to the Emergency Hospital back in Jan 2015. The nurse drew blood from my left hand & purposely burst the vein inside my left hand. And since then my left hand has been in pain daily. So please continue to pray for me. Pray that God will heal my soul & break this curse that's in my life & the souls of my divided negative confused family. It's a generational curse. :'( Everyday I fight Lucifer. He keeps attacking & talking in my mind. Earlier this year, he tricked me into thinking that I didn't feel loved from God or Jesus :'( Today, I was thinking... for an angel sent from heaven to have rejected me & to not have the blessing of any friends in my 25 years of living, I'm afraid to think that I might be rejected from the lord. I feel so hurt as I type this because I feel so lost, hurt, sadden, damaged, empty, lonely & destroyed in sadness from how my life & family is. The pain takes a lot out of the soul & life that is in me daily. I feel like my soul was never meant to be happy here on this earth. I have been praying, crying my life, breath of soul out to God, Jesus & Holy Spirit for help :'( to please break this generational curse in my family & in my life. I'm suffering horribly. I feel so empty inside. I don't what my purpose here on earth is if I come from a negative, confused , divided, cursed family that's filled with rejection from positive people, suffering in health, never having any good positive blessings. The hurt that I live with makes me wonder was I really a mistake to exist on this earth due to this painful hell I'm going through. The only thing I can possibly do is pray, read my bible scriptures, worship God, Jesus & Holy Spirit & please pray that they will break this generational curse of negativity, rejection, negative division & a lot of other hurts. P.S. I like Photography. I never studied everything about it, but I've been taking photos since I got my first digital camera back in May 2009. I just recently got a new camera on my 25th birthday last month on April 10th. Pray that God will lead & open a new door for me in photography. This month of May I had went to the library for free computer basic, ancestry & internet basics, each two days out each week. I'm still failing becoming a young responsible man. Two days ago I was late for my computer basic class, but they let me in. This morning, I missed my free class session for ancestry today. My family yelled at me some more today. I'm so hurt, destroyed & sadden. I don't know why I was created :'( My soul is suffering. I felt empty & rejected by every good thing this morning thinking about my life, God, Jesus & Holy Spirit. I don't know if the lord is with me because my soul felt completely empty this morning while I was at the library.

If we would live our lives utilizing only a portion of the meaning within this song, we all would become better people. Utilizing all of the meaning within this song would make a huge difference on how we think about and treat others and feel a lot better about ourselves.
