Kanye west was being tested by God and when it didn't go his way, instead of praising the lord through his misfortune he decided to condemn Jesus. There's a story in the bible similar to this situation, where Job has everything taken from him and instead of yelling at The Most High God, He praises the lord and says Job 1:21 "Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. [22] In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly." So in other words, Kanye essentially failed to see the test and pulled a reverse Job.
I know it's sad and I tried to warn people about Kanye he didn't seem to be truly grounded in Christianity. He was saying things that just didn't make sense
The worship of Jesus is the worship of an Idol, especially since Jesus said that he is nothing and can do nothing, and that if he speaks of himself he bears witness to a lie! The church has spent its time solely ensuring that you accept the religious interpretation because it does two things: 1: Keeps them in Power 2: Keeps you Ignorant of Your Truth of Being by making you believe you should worship a form rather than Worshipping at the Altar of the Christ Within yourself, as the Christ of Jesus outlined for you as your brother and teacher, not a savior!! He that Realizes He is the Son of God has Eternal Life! He then walks through the mortal appearance a Divine Being, in who the 5 Senses(Satan) of Mortality have been Impersonalized, therefore hold no power over him. His fidelity is to the Immortal Spirit he is, and no longer to the mortal sense of life not of God. -Christ Realization The RESURRECTION takes place when we drop the belief and reliance upon the False Appearances of the World Mind of Mortality through the Acceptance and Realization of God/Spirit being the only Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Being, thereby knowing your true self to be the Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Spirit of God. We Must OVERCOME the Belief that we are not Immortal, Divine Being..... To him that overcometh(mortal belief of the tree of good and evil)will I give to eat of the Tree of Life, which is in the Midst of the paradise of God(right here, right now)....God/Spirit is the Only Presence! Turn ye from the false images of the mortal world of man with breath in his nostrils, and Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High!! Peace Be Unto You
@@ISATŌP1 Salvation is through Jesus Christ and not ourselves. The churches you speak of are Catholics and other's like them who use the pagan traditions. The true Church is not what they claim. Salvation is only through Jesus Christ and acceptance of him as our Lord and Savior and King! And our repentance of our sins. That is clear as day in the Bible so why should I listen to a person over God's word? I never was a Catholic or in any churches that are cult like in any way shape or form. The truth is you are confused and lost and I will pray for you and that God will open your eyes to the truth. I say this out of love and not in hate.
There is no religion in my belief. There is Only God, just as there is for Jesus, John, Paul, Mary, Noah, etc... Its amazing how little believers think of God.....as if Perfect Spirit/God is responsible for the creation of, or even knows anything of the Illusory World of Matter, Iniquity, Decay, Death, Disease, Lack, Trauma, Sin, Hatred, Petulance, Retaliation, Gender, Separation, Evil, Religion, Politics, etc.....but shows me why the Church/Religion and its followers have never found God.... Here's the True Message of the Bible: Form is born of Ignorance, Ignorance is born of Delusion, and Delusion is born of a Dream(Mist/Veil) in which we do not know we are Immortal Spirit. If it's happening in Time and Space it can Not be taking place. Matter is a false concept of the Spiritual Universe. Matter and Religion both proclaim the absence of God because if God created them they would be Eternal. Spirit, Christ, our Immortal Truth of Being will not flow through a Mortal/Material/Finite Sense of Awareneness. Matter/Form/Mortality is an Illusory Symptom of the Disobedience to Truth that Spirit is the Only Presence. Because I Am Spirit I have no human purpose. The bible has a very important function that is lost to the religious world, which is the crucifixion of the belief in a material/mortal self(a sense of ME) through the Acceptance of God being Perfect, Infinite Spirit, and Spirit Being the Only Presence. God is, Therefore, I AM! Spirit, Christ, our Immortal Truth of Being will not flow through a Mortal/Material/Finite Sense of Awareneness. Form is born of Ignorance, Ignorance is born of Delusion, and Delusion is born of a Dream(Mist/Veil) in which we do not know we are Immortal Spirit. What you are experiencing now is a finite, material concept of the Infinite Spiritual Universe, also known as the Life of God, or the Only Life! It is an insult to God to believe God is responsible for creation of that which is Perishable. It is the belief that you know more than God, and not only know more, but also the belief that God is responsible for the atrocities in your experience, and exactly why you live an imperfect life. Your denial of the Omnipresent, Perfect, Immortal, Omniscient God that is the Only Presence is why you get sick, feel pain, fear things, age, Decay, and die.... It is through the turning away from the reliance upon that which God did not create that brings us closer to God, thereby allowing the Perfect Expression of God's Immortal, Spirit to be the Demonstration of your experience. There are seven steps to the initiation of the christ within, and a belief in a life separate and apart from God is NOT ONE OF THEM!! To Love God you must know that God is so utterly Perfect there can only be the Perfect Spirit of God!! What we believe we are experiencing as a mortal being is actually the Binding/Imprisoning of Spiritual Immortality as the Truth of the Activity of Our Consciousness into a Mortal and Material Sense of Awareneness. The message of the bible is not for the timid, it is for those who are willing to walk the Earth in Proportion to their Receptivity of Spiritual Omnipresence(THE STRAIT GATE)! Very Few ever find it, and this means the church has never found it, and in fact, if you were of a Spiritual Belief you would be able to Spiritually Discern the bible rather than leave it to a preacher or your human mind and senses that can only lie to you! Where you see death, Only Life is, and you see death because you don't see God, as my Brother Jesus and I do...!
Remember whenever a celebrity comes to faith. They are the ones that need God, God does not need them. People say things like if Joe Rogan became a Christian just think what God could do through him. God will work his purposes whether Joe Rogan or anyone else becomes a Christian. They need Christ not the other way around.
We cannot glorify the Father, and glorify the flesh, or the sense of a personal Me separate and apart from God(including the flesh of jesus). Our Consciousness can not be divided in this. Either God is or God isn't the Only Life, and your experience is the Demonstration of either/or, depending on your receptivity to Life(Immortality), or Death(Mortality)... Where there's a Me(human self-love and human self-will) separate and apart from God there is SIN..... SELF...................S INDULGED..........I NUISANCE.........N Me, not God, therefore, ME knows better than God, and because ME knows better, ME MUST suffer the consequences of ME mortal beliefs of a Life Separate and Apart from God!! ME must appear to suffer the mortal consequences of ME IGNORANCE of TRUTH of BEING.... He who Realizes his Life is the Spirit of God has Eternal Life! He then walks through the mortal appearance a Divine Being, in who the 5 Senses of Mortal Lies have been Impersonalized, therefore hold no power over him. His fidelity is to the Immortal Spirit he is, and no longer to the mortal sense of life not of God. We Must OVERCOME the Belief that we are not Immortal, Divine Being..... To him that Overcometh the temptation of the tree of good and evil(belief in a mortal existence separate and apart from God)will I give to eat of the Tree of Life(ALL GOD IS/ETERNAL LIFE), which is in the Midst of the Kingdom of God(Omnipresence).... Turn ye from the false images of the mortal world of man with breath in his nostrils, and Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High!! God is Infinite, Perfect Spirit, and Spirit is the Only Presence!!! Jesus knew the Immortal, Perfect Life of God is the Only Life, thereby dissolving the Erroneous Duplicate we experience as form through the sense(s) of a mortal belief separate and apart from the Life of God! The Realization and Receptivity to the Eternal, Omnipresent Truth of God impersonalized the mortal form of Jesus separate and apart from God.... If I Speak of Myself, I Bear Witness to a Lie.... What callest thou me good.... I of mine own self am nothing. I of mine own self can do nothing.... Jesus knew where there is a me, there is no HE!
Exactly accolades and fame mean nothing but humility does before God. ALL POWER BELONGS TO HIM and He uses people and doesn't care about their fame nor influence
Kanye reminds me of myself when I’m trying too hard to seek God without reading my Bible. I think he needs to revisit the Bible with humility and honesty.
The bible holds absolutely no power!!! Only your Realization of its true message and the Receptivity to it holds the power.... And if the religious interpretation were the correct one we would not live in a world where those who claim to believe in God live in fear, sickness, trauma, etc.... Mortality/Death(birth)/Matter/Form(and all included within it) is not a REALITY, and God has absolutely nothing to do with the false appearance of it.... Only Our ignorance of Truth of Being is Responsible for the False Appearance of that which we believe is Mortal. Right Here, Right Now, ONLY Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Spirit is!! Spirit is. Therefore, I Am! He that Realizes He is the Son of God has Eternal Life! He then walks through the mortal appearance a Divine Being, in who the 5 Senses of Mortality have been Impersonalized, therefore hold no power over him. His fidelity is to the Immortal Spirit he is, and no longer to the mortal sense of life not of God. -Christ Realization The RESURRECTION takes place when we drop the belief and reliance upon the False Appearances of the World Mind of Mortality through the Acceptance and Realization of God/Spirit being the only Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Being, thereby knowing your true self to be the Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Spirit of God.

So you know God because you read the Bible? Read Joshua 24 and explain verse 19. Jesus forgives sins, the God of Moses does not. That book has multiple Gods in it, yet people keep trying to pass it off as the word of one God.
Kanye is this teachable moment: As Christians we have to know what we are in this for. And be honest with ourselves. Are we in this for God or in this for ourselves?
I think as fallen, selfish, sinful creatures, the honest answer is 'for ourselves'; at least in part. God has ignited a flame in me I've never had for Him; a hunger for knowledge of Him and a deeper relationship with Him, and I was brought to faith 30 years ago. But, even as He is preparing me and doing a most wonderful work in me (for which I am immensely grateful), I don't feel comfortable saying that I have conceded to my innermost self that I am 100% in it solely for the glory of God. Self-preservation still plays an instinctual role, albeit a "walk-on" one at best these days, Praise God, but it's there nonetheless. That said, I know that I am driven- or being driven- daily in growing the Kingdom, putting "pebbles in shoes", and like a racehorse before the starting gun, raring to go when He wills I'm ready to serve & do the work for which I was created. 🙏❤️☝️✝️⛓️💥📖
It’s the reverse. Pride before destruction - haughty spirit before the fall. I used to think it was how you referenced till I was reading my Bible one day and went, "wait a second….." 😅
With all do respect It's the same thing people let's consentrate on what's important. The Lord Jesus Christ fearing God is the beginning of understanding.🥰
Biblical prayer is worship based, not request based. The worshipper can say, "Your will be done," and joyfully accept what the sovereign Lord does with his or her request. Perhaps he failed to understand that it's not just about accepting Jesus it's about surrendering to him.
❤ sort of. The word prayer literally meant request so that is what the writers of the Bible meant. The Psalms are words of worship. The Our Father prayer Jesus taught us contains requests for forgiveness and to not be tempted away from His will. If Kanye had prayed for strength to bear the trials and crosses God was giving him to give him the humility and strength he lacks and needs, he would have got an answer.
@SL-es5kb Yes I agree. What I mean to say is not that prayer is worship but that prayer must be rooted in worship. Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Psalm 105:1
That's not really true, because this assertion implies that Kanye was introduced to biblical Christianity. Christ's parable was about ppl who heard _the true gospel_ , and traditional Christianity has NEVER preached that gospel. It has preached various counterfeit messages about Christ and grace. As incredible as it is to believe, it is the truth. The entire world of traditional Christianity don't know what it is, even though it thinks the gospel is about Christ.
@@theeternalsbeliever1779 I agree the true gospel is not taught or preached in every church. Think you are speculating that he hasn’t heard the true gospel. Seems there were some clear signs/fruits that he came to saving faith. He’s had quite a few difficulties. Can’t imagine pain he felt when going through a very public divorce. Not sure I would do well either in a similar circumstance.
One of the best things that happened in my life was when God told me that I could go and be an animation artist for Disney and then I could try to send money to my family for my terminally ill mom and I would miss out on the time we had left. He made it clear that I'd regret it. Or ignore the dreams for me and let go of them and I could still write and draw any where and I would be happy. I decided to put my trust in God's will. If I had left I would have been distracted by my job and be drawn away from God more and more until I turned against him! I had grown up in a church from birth and was mimicking things that I was taught and I was not saved though I believed I was. With God's grace and mercy and protection I got saved 10-09-22. I just keep thanking God for his help and support and I just pray that Kanye and others like him will come to the truth before its too late
Kanye was never a Christian. It is more clear now but for anyone who has a relationship with God and is in the word, you could always see the separation from Kanye and Gods word.
I appreciate Kanye’s honesty. We all act like we’re the god of ourselves when we sin. That being said, I could see right through the artificial Christianity that he was portraying starting a couple years ago.
I just came on here to thank you for doing these videos, please know that what you're doing is a huge benefit. Just today I had a discussion with someone about the Bible and slavery. Usually if I'm honest I wouldn't be able to approach the situation the right way but I actually asked them to show me in the Bible what they meant. And each time we did so we looked at the context of the text then the ACTUAL meaning of the text. It got to the point they stopped quoting scripture and they just tried to go for personal jabs at which point I assesed where this was coming from and I could see that he wasn't a scoffer but someone who wanted to know but just didn't know how to defend his point without the jabs. So I brought the focus back on topic and made them see the light and they conceeded. I don't just mean conceeded but they realised what they believed was wrong so please pray that the seed that has been sown God will develop into a tree for his kingdom! This is only after 2 WEEKS of watching your videos. God bless you and please know, what you are imparting in us (those of us who will really hear what you're trying to teach and what I believe God wants us to know) will be able to stand not just on but FOR the truth the right way.🙏🏾
Kanye is a visionary at heart. That said, a vision other than his own is likely a massive struggle to submit to, align with, and trust in. I have no idea how wholesome his discipleship was or wasn't, but it sounds as though he sees faith and work as seperate while believing that "godly fear" and "fear of man" are the same. I pray that he's convicted by the Spirit to dive deeper into the Word as neither music, nor intellectualism, nor the world can give what he appears to be searching for. Thanks for another interesting video. May God continue to bless according to His will.
Kanye needs to understand when you follow Jesus Christ ways, you're going to suffer persecution and downfalls, but you will find greater riches from them.
@@SpiritDetective-jd7wx I have a brain tumor which was malignant and every neurologist I have seen if they removed the entire brain tumor, I would be a wheelchair. I did have radiation on it which was not successful nut I also had brain surgery where the neurosurgeon successfully removed some of the tumor.
I think you're right, but he still said right before that Jesus didnt show up, and then later claims to be God or his own God so he' still currently lost.
Your video was biblically accurate. The one thing I feel it was lacking is how prevalent the little god theology is preached from the pulpit (more videos on this subject matter would help the body of Christ). It's clear to me that Kanye has bent his ears to wrong teachings. Shame on the ones that have taught the WORD to him inaccurately. He does need to do his due diligence, repent and come to his Lord and Savior on bent knee 🙏
Yes, I was wondering about this myself. It goes back to the lie, "you will be like God," which is I guess the second-oldest lie in human history, right after "you will not surely die." The evil one doesn't need new material when the old stuff still works. And we're all susceptible, when we choose our own way over the Lord's.
One of the primary things I have learned through God’s word is his plan isn’t yours. But it is also better! You made a video at the beginning of the year that inspired me Nate. You said “are you going to let God be the author of your life?” Now if my life is a story, who do I want to write it? Which author will create a greater story of adventure and triumph? The answer is obvious.
One of the saddest things to witness is the result of a false conversion. Way too many people are not informed of the true price of following Jesus. I believe yhe reason is that the price is a big turnoff for most people.
Kanye’s prayers are NOT in alignment with God’s will. They’re in alignment with the world and worldly things. That’s why they are not answered. Fear is not being afraid. Fear is respect, awe and reverence towards God. All components of love.
The greatest gift that we've ever been given was an unanswered prayer, Jesus said "Father if You're willing, take this cup from Me, yet not My will but Yours be done" Luke 22:42
Kanye is speaking of the “other” Jesus people are worshipping - the same one the True Jesus our Savior warned us about in Matthew 24. It seems Kanye is toting some serious demons. We all need to pray for Kanye to find a true fear of the Lord so He can come to true salvation.
This is something I've been struggling with myself, just a few hours ago I was fighting hard to see a lesson in my struggles and not give into the idea that God had just left me in my own hands. This was a reminder that I needed. So thank you.
My last pastor's name was Nate too lol. I want to be a wise disciple, I'm binge-watching all your videos. I thank God that I found this channel. Nate, I appreciate your ministry thank you for helping me get to know my God and Jesus better.
Around 3:40 I think Kanye said "work" not word, and its just how he pronounced it is the confusion. He does go on to say next that Christians pray instead of physically doing something, and how when God didn't answer him he will do it himself, so it's most likely "work" not "word.
(Fear of the LORD) in german it says "Ehrfurcht"..Ehr = Honor..and furcht = fear..the meaning of "Ehrfurcht" is, "High regard, respect for the dignity, majesty of a person, a being.."
It's relatable... two years of praying and reading the Bible, listening seremons ever night before sleep, forgiving all those who have offended me, sharing the gospel helping those in need has gotten me absolutely no where, im just as alone and depressed, without any hope for better future, but the Christian advice is that im not bringing glory to God and i should just say Jesus saved me from this and that.. yeah he sure took away my drink and my weed so i have literally no enjoyment in life... happy life has nothing to do with the bible but some people just think its got something to do with it, its really depressing book tbh..
@@Oozy9MillimeetahI'm sorry it has been your experience as of now. If I may ask, what passions and talents do you have in life ? You mentioned using substances to "have fun", but I'm sure you have other/healthier interests. Maybe looking to join a community organized around a shared interest can help you fight off the isolation and loneliness. In Genesis, God created Eve because it wasn't good for Adam, who had all mankind in him, to be alone. So He created a creature similar to Adam, yet different from him so they could go through life together. Hopefully, finding a good tribe will help with one part of the problem. Take care.
@@susiem.2068 Thanks for the encouragement, i typed that comment feeling super down, but yeah last few years have been tough, but i gotta strong feeling that my blessings are around the corner, it'll all be alright, thank you and God bless.
God didn't give me what I wanted. He didn't grant my wishes and appear before me when I asked, even demanded. Therefore I owe Him nothing and if wants me to follow Him he knows my demands. I'll be waiting. - Kayne West
And why should God give you something that can change the wheels of time and your relation to other humanlings? God giving you what you want is like Rick and Morty changing the timeline.
Sometimes God not answering is the only answer we need. Looking back in my life if God would have granted my wish I would have been in a much worse place hindsight. His ways are not our way and his thoughts are higher than our thoughts. He does what he does for our best and benefit. Thank God that He sees the whole picture and not what I’m seeing right in front of me.
I get the desire to correct every theological error in the effort to be biblically accurate. I believe that there is a time and place for that, especially when a person sincerely believes what they are purporting. However, when I hear Kanye, as a pastor I am hearing someone that wasn't properly discipled, someone that's been disillusioned, and ultimately someone that's broken. I'm listening for the metanarrative that addressing the roots and heart issues from which the mouth speaks. I doubt that he is speaking from conviction but rather from hurt and emotions (which change with time). I condemn his speech and proclamation about being god, speaking against the biblical understanding of the fear of God, and his angst against a form of "Christianity" that isn't rooted in Jesus and his gospel. Those things are all wrong and should be corrected. I just think that what the church needs to learn is how to reach, connect (build healthy relationship with), and gently restore people that are in sin.
My thoughts of him and his understanding of a Christian. I see him as wanting to have power over his everyday choices and he sees weakness in following Christ and the teachings because then he may have to feel remorse for things he has done or wants to do.
The entitlement is out of this world! People actually think that God owes them there every wish in return for absolutely nothing. Even before I ever opened up a Bible for the first time I knew better. If they can't back anything up with scripture they're fake
I know that if my prayer is righteous God will answer it and there was selfish prayers he said no to ... But I always bow and say Lord you only are God .. if he would read the word he could learn how to please God ❤️🔥🧑🌾🏡
“Father, not my will, but yours” Jesus prayed this in the garden before he was arrested and I try to remember this every time I go to the Lord in prayer. Sometimes, God answer to our request is no. It can be hard to accept at times but I know that God’s plans are bigger and better than mine.
The segment where Kanye states that people rely too much on Jesus he says that they don't put the "work in" which the Holy Bible also talks about. Basically, waiting for Jesus to do things that God has given us the ability to handle with assistance from our brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. Now don't get me wrong, this means that we have to be actively seeking God and building our relationship daily with him by reading his word and asking for God to give us discernment to understand what we are reading and how it applies to our own ups and downs. At the end of the day, we have to continuously pray for these individuals and do what we need to do so that we don't get drawn into this dangerous way of thinking.
Kanye’s consistency is about what you’d expect from someone with his mental illnesses. He needs less people trying to exploit him and more people who care enough to pray for him and give him guidance. Of course it’s hard to receive guidance when you have such an ego.
I'm just shy of 5 mins in. You can not pray your way out of consequences or the experience God has for you. Bottom line is he has presented to have no faith. He wants God to give him what Kanye wants, and that's not happening because you don't command God. He has to grow up and read the word more.
Kanye reminds me of the rich young ruler. “I will do whatever you tell me Jesus.” But when God says No or something unexpected, he walks away. Hopefully God changes his heart, that’s the only way any of us can boast of our salvation, thru God.
"Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil,... ...As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away." Be like the wise in Daniel 11 who fall/ stumble for a time to be refined, ask God for help and get back up.
It sounded to me like he said, “We depend so much on Jesus that we don’t put the WORK in, ourselves.” Sounded like he clarified it when in his next sentence he said something about how we say , “I’ll pray for you,” when we could be actually, physically DOING something. That’s how I heard it, anyway. But I agree, Kanye is a nut shy of a squirrel’s stash and he definitely needs a whole lotta prayer.
He said he is the God of his own life.. so I assume he meant he is in charge of his own life and outcomes. Which is sad not to trust in our creator whatever we go through in this world. We need to keep our eyes fixed on our eternity with him and rejoice in him because by his grace this is given
@Dylan-kz... you're spot on... this is akin to a young teenager who thinks he has the world figured out and is learning that your parents won't bow to your every demand ❤
Question is why do we care at all what Kanye has to say or what he thinks. Should we consider what he thinks and what he says just because he is famous? I don't think so. He is just like the rest of us. I do agree with you on the point that we should pray for each other.
I think some of Kanye's statements show an unfortunate lack of discipleship, which we as pastors and teachers, have generally failed at over the past few decades.
Assuming he was actually discipled by a true follower of Jesus Christ, but wait, even if he was, does it mean that it was the fault of his teacher? Or, was/is Kanye a Judas all along? Just a thought.
@Wisedisciple So glad you addressed this biblically. Not many videos took us to the scriptures and that’s a big deal since Kanye is such a public figure. We gotta take it to the scriptures
I needed to hear this message today. May I never be in a place of becoming so angry and jaded with God’s plan that I become my own god. God’s ways are higher than mine and while I don’t always understand the plan he has, I know it will work for good. Help me Lord, to live by faith.🙏🏾
Lol Jesus doesn't show up when you want sweetheart. He shows us when the time is right for you. I wasn't even looking for Jesus and He showed up at just the right time ❤. We are so obsessed with ourselves, and what we want and what we need and when we need it that we expect God to put together workarounds to please us.... We are not here to serve ourselves and our God.
You being a former atheist. I would love to hear your reaction to Mindshift. This former man of God for 30 years makes video after video making his case against God. I would hope and love to see a rebuttal to his points. I haven't heard any Christian youtuber confront his allegations.
I’d love to hear some more as well. But Braxton hunter on @trinityradio did a wonderful response to minshift on his channel. You should definitely check it out!
I'm a fan of him and I would like to see someone try and rebuttal him tbh. Been a Christian for all my life and thanks to him I have broken the chains that held me. I feel so free
I've made some replies on his videos although I'm not a "RUclipsr" because I thought he was genuinely interested in getting answers to his questions. Sadly, he only responded to one comment and it wasn't really to engage just to reiterate he thinks God is a horrible monster for old testament atrocities. I've watched enough of his videos to realize he will take the time to like nearly every comment that agrees with him but it's rare to see him respond to a challenge. His followers occasionally will though.
@@someguywithalowbudget1320 I’m not sure if Trent Horn has directly addressed him, but I’m pretty sure that some of his points may be addressed. I honestly think that a lot of issues come from evangelicalism in particular, which can sometimes try to oversimplify things that cannot be and end up creating more problems than solutions that can easily be poked in (eg the penal substitution of the cross. IMO the Orthodox view of it is the only truly valid explanation for why Jesus had to die). Tbh i am also now sometimes wary of RUclips apologists (although they are generally okay), because sometimes the correct answer to dilemmas such as faith vs works, and gospel discrepancies are not rooted in Protestant sola scriptura, which might get some of their audience upset. The church fathers to discuss the OT and why certain things happen, but that involves an authoritative interpretation that can clash against the worldview of some RUclips apologists. And tbh, I am still Christian, I believe that history does affirm and attest to Jesus, but I am unsure what to make of this tendency they have sometimes. Do they want biblical truth no matter the implications, or do they want truth as long as it doesn’t clash with evangelical tenets?
What many Christians fail to realize is that we have to stop thinking that all we have to do is pray for things to go our way just by praying and waiting for God to do everything for us. It does not work that way. I personally know people who do absolutely nothing and are miserable (being Christian) and bad-mouthing God because life hasn't changed for the better. I'm guilty of doing the same thing. God gave us legs and arms and a brain. God always provides a way but we have to do some work. We have to discern God's way of helping us but ultimately, it is up to us and what we do or don't do that determines either a change or not. We are not supposed to sit around waiting for miracles to fall on our laps. We have to go out and believe we are going to get where we want to go and our actions will bring things to fruition. We have to put in some work of our own. God bless you if you are reading this comment. Shalom.
I am saddened about Kanye and everyone else who thought they put their trust in Jesus and expected Jesus to be their servant. Jesus is Lord, and we are NOT. Perhaps Kanye misunderstood the truth of Jesu as Lord or King to mean that Jesus would always come to our beckon call when we prayed. And it is EASY to fall into that false theology. And many pastors make us feel that God is there to serve our needs. No matter what we pray for, Jesus will give it to us. Wow - a quick read through James' letter will straighten us out. There are times to pray supplications asking the Lord for His help and there are times when our prayers are statements of faith in God's Word where we take authority over the wiles of the enemy and stand, trusting in God's Word and promises. And our prayers must be in alignment with God's will. Faith is characterized by TRUST in the authority of God's Word and our obedience to that Word - in our thoughts, desires and our deeds. Faith is NOT a by-word to use but an actual way of life. If Kanye really came to the Lord, he was a babe in Christ but the people around him made him believe that his talent, fame and money were things that the Lord depended on for God's plans and purpose. God doesn't NEED us but He graciously allows us to share in His plans, and depending on our level of maturity in Christ, He will share more of His Ways and purposes with us. As we grow in the Lord, then we are allowed to see more of God's spiritual truths. If we remain puffed up, He shuns us until we learn what obedience and trust is. I pray for Kanye and everyone I know that has this "false Jesus" as their God - a Jesus who is their servant and not their Loving Lord and Savior.
Kanye says Jesus did not "show up." Does he really mean Jesus did not give him what he wanted? So many people think when God answers their prayers with a No, or a Wait, it means He "Didn't answer my prayers. " So, God doesn't exist. "I had to get up and do it myself. " Um, Gos almost always makes us DO something. He opens the doors, creates the contacts, and makes the possibilities possible. Kayne makes the same mistakes most of the world makes. He takes God, and ALL of his blessings, for granted. Hopefully, he will open his eyes before it's too late.
He said "we don't put the work in ourselves " He's saying that individuals depend on Jesus to solve problems instead of the individual putting work and effort into life.
8:03 he saying that ultimately, and up until the end he’s in control of his own destiny. It’s kinda like saying I don’t eat food and I don’t drink any beverages especially water and I’m gonna live to be 100 without nourishing my body… I’m pretty sure that’s not gonna workout very well for him and if Heaven is the throne of The God of Israel and the Bible is true (and I’m convinced that it is) then preferring his own ways and not seeking the ways that the God of the Bible has set for humanity will end up with him in hot water…pun intended. We should pray for him as it’s what the saved are called to do.
First 5 ish min.. these are things I thought way before I was saved .. sheesh. I really pray he is actually not doing this on purpose and all his work prior wasn't built on deception.. God bless nate for sharing and explaining the real truth in the Word. Scary because those who follow him in such a way, may actually believe him.. smh
4:33 he is saying, we don’t put the work in. I understand the point he’s making he’s saying that we depends so much on Jesus that we won’t do anything and we’ll just sit around and let him work.
He is a legend in is own mind. I recently watched a Jason Whitlock video about P. Diddy (made before his home was raided) and the deep underworld of Hip Hip/Rap and it is absolutely no surprise that it's diabolical and it's meant to destroy society.
I guess Kanye found out that Jesus isn't a genie in a bottle
Yes! This!!
Hmm 🤨🤔🤐🤫
Kanye west was being tested by God and when it didn't go his way, instead of praising the lord through his misfortune he decided to condemn Jesus. There's a story in the bible similar to this situation, where Job has everything taken from him and instead of yelling at The Most High God, He praises the lord and says Job 1:21 "Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
[22] In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly." So in other words, Kanye essentially failed to see the test and pulled a reverse Job.
Simply means he wasn’t a Christian, he had the wrong Gospel
@@RexcelotI’m not opposed to say he was tested but I’m opposed to saying he was a Christian
The fact that Kanye actually thought that Jesus is here to serve him instead of Kanye being here to serve Jesus 🤦🏻
I know it's sad and I tried to warn people about Kanye he didn't seem to be truly grounded in Christianity. He was saying things that just didn't make sense
The worship of Jesus is the worship of an Idol, especially since Jesus said that he is nothing and can do nothing, and that if he speaks of himself he bears witness to a lie!
The church has spent its time solely ensuring that you accept the religious interpretation because it does two things:
1: Keeps them in Power
2: Keeps you Ignorant of Your Truth of Being by making you believe you should worship a form rather than Worshipping at the Altar of the Christ Within yourself, as the Christ of Jesus outlined for you as your brother and teacher, not a savior!!
He that Realizes He is the Son of God has Eternal Life! He then walks through the mortal appearance a Divine Being, in who the 5 Senses(Satan) of Mortality have been Impersonalized, therefore hold no power over him. His fidelity is to the Immortal Spirit he is, and no longer to the mortal sense of life not of God.
-Christ Realization
The RESURRECTION takes place when we drop the belief and reliance upon the False Appearances of the World Mind of Mortality through the Acceptance and Realization of God/Spirit being the only Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Being, thereby knowing your true self to be the Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Spirit of God.
We Must OVERCOME the Belief that we are not Immortal, Divine Being.....
To him that overcometh(mortal belief of the tree of good and evil)will I give to eat of the Tree of Life, which is in the Midst of the paradise of God(right here, right now)....God/Spirit is the Only Presence!
Turn ye from the false images of the mortal world of man with breath in his nostrils, and Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High!!

@@ISATŌP1 Salvation is through Jesus Christ and not ourselves. The churches you speak of are Catholics and other's like them who use the pagan traditions. The true Church is not what they claim. Salvation is only through Jesus Christ and acceptance of him as our Lord and Savior and King! And our repentance of our sins.
That is clear as day in the Bible so why should I listen to a person over God's word? I never was a Catholic or in any churches that are cult like in any way shape or form. The truth is you are confused and lost and I will pray for you and that God will open your eyes to the truth.
I say this out of love and not in hate.
There is no religion in my belief. There is Only God, just as there is for Jesus, John, Paul, Mary, Noah, etc...
Its amazing how little believers think of God.....as if Perfect Spirit/God is responsible for the creation of, or even knows anything of the Illusory World of Matter, Iniquity, Decay, Death, Disease, Lack, Trauma, Sin, Hatred, Petulance, Retaliation, Gender, Separation, Evil, Religion, Politics, etc.....but shows me why the Church/Religion and its followers have never found God....
Here's the True Message of the Bible:
Form is born of Ignorance, Ignorance is born of Delusion, and Delusion is born of a Dream(Mist/Veil) in which we do not know we are Immortal Spirit.
If it's happening in Time and Space it can Not be taking place.
Matter is a false concept of the Spiritual Universe.
Matter and Religion both proclaim the absence of God because if God created them they would be Eternal.
Spirit, Christ, our Immortal Truth of Being will not flow through a Mortal/Material/Finite Sense of Awareneness.
Matter/Form/Mortality is an Illusory Symptom of the Disobedience to Truth that Spirit is the Only Presence.
Because I Am Spirit I have no human purpose.
The bible has a very important function that is lost to the religious world, which is the crucifixion of the belief in a material/mortal self(a sense of ME) through the Acceptance of God being Perfect, Infinite Spirit, and Spirit Being the Only Presence.
God is, Therefore, I AM!
Spirit, Christ, our Immortal Truth of Being will not flow through a Mortal/Material/Finite Sense of Awareneness.
Form is born of Ignorance, Ignorance is born of Delusion, and Delusion is born of a Dream(Mist/Veil) in which we do not know we are Immortal Spirit.
What you are experiencing now is a finite, material concept of the Infinite Spiritual Universe, also known as the Life of God, or the Only Life!
It is an insult to God to believe God is responsible for creation of that which is Perishable. It is the belief that you know more than God, and not only know more, but also the belief that God is responsible for the atrocities in your experience, and exactly why you live an imperfect life. Your denial of the Omnipresent, Perfect, Immortal, Omniscient God that is the Only Presence is why you get sick, feel pain, fear things, age, Decay, and die....
It is through the turning away from the reliance upon that which God did not create that brings us closer to God, thereby allowing the Perfect Expression of God's Immortal, Spirit to be the Demonstration of your experience.
There are seven steps to the initiation of the christ within, and a belief in a life separate and apart from God is NOT ONE OF THEM!!
To Love God you must know that God is so utterly Perfect there can only be the Perfect Spirit of God!!
What we believe we are experiencing as a mortal being is actually the Binding/Imprisoning of Spiritual Immortality as the Truth of the Activity of Our Consciousness into a Mortal and Material Sense of Awareneness.
The message of the bible is not for the timid, it is for those who are willing to walk the Earth in Proportion to their Receptivity of Spiritual Omnipresence(THE STRAIT GATE)!
Very Few ever find it, and this means the church has never found it, and in fact, if you were of a Spiritual Belief you would be able to Spiritually Discern the bible rather than leave it to a preacher or your human mind and senses that can only lie to you!
Where you see death, Only Life is, and you see death because you don't see God, as my Brother Jesus and I do...!
@@ISATŌP1Paul calls Jesus lord and jesus accepted worship as god. So naturally Jesus is God.
Remember whenever a celebrity comes to faith. They are the ones that need God, God does not need them. People say things like if Joe Rogan became a Christian just think what God could do through him. God will work his purposes whether Joe Rogan or anyone else becomes a Christian. They need Christ not the other way around.
We cannot glorify the Father, and glorify the flesh, or the sense of a personal Me separate and apart from God(including the flesh of jesus). Our Consciousness can not be divided in this. Either God is or God isn't the Only Life, and your experience is the Demonstration of either/or, depending on your receptivity to Life(Immortality), or Death(Mortality)...
Where there's a Me(human self-love and human self-will) separate and apart from God there is SIN.....
SELF...................S
INDULGED..........I
NUISANCE.........N
Me, not God, therefore, ME knows better than God, and because ME knows better, ME MUST suffer the consequences of ME mortal beliefs of a Life Separate and Apart from God!! ME must appear to suffer the mortal consequences of ME IGNORANCE of TRUTH of BEING....
He who Realizes his Life is the Spirit of God has Eternal Life! He then walks through the mortal appearance a Divine Being, in who the 5 Senses of Mortal Lies have been Impersonalized, therefore hold no power over him. His fidelity is to the Immortal Spirit he is, and no longer to the mortal sense of life not of God.
We Must OVERCOME the Belief that we are not Immortal, Divine Being.....
To him that Overcometh the temptation of the tree of good and evil(belief in a mortal existence separate and apart from God)will I give to eat of the Tree of Life(ALL GOD IS/ETERNAL LIFE), which is in the Midst of the Kingdom of God(Omnipresence)....
Turn ye from the false images of the mortal world of man with breath in his nostrils, and Dwell in the Secret Place of the Most High!!
God is Infinite, Perfect Spirit, and Spirit is the Only Presence!!!
Jesus knew the Immortal, Perfect Life of God is the Only Life, thereby dissolving the Erroneous Duplicate we experience as form through the sense(s) of a mortal belief separate and apart from the Life of God! The Realization and Receptivity to the Eternal, Omnipresent Truth of God impersonalized the mortal form of Jesus separate and apart from God....
If I Speak of Myself, I Bear Witness to a Lie....
What callest thou me good....
I of mine own self am nothing. I of mine own self can do nothing....
Jesus knew where there is a me, there is no HE!
Fame on earth comes from Satan, don’t expect any Christians there.
Exactly accolades and fame mean nothing but humility does before God. ALL POWER BELONGS TO HIM and He uses people and doesn't care about their fame nor influence
Kanye reminds me of myself when I’m trying too hard to seek God without reading my Bible. I think he needs to revisit the Bible with humility and honesty.
Amen! Me, too. I heard scripture in church and read Christian books but didn't study the bible.
The bible holds absolutely no power!!! Only your Realization of its true message and the Receptivity to it holds the power....
And if the religious interpretation were the correct one we would not live in a world where those who claim to believe in God live in fear, sickness, trauma, etc....
Mortality/Death(birth)/Matter/Form(and all included within it) is not a REALITY, and God has absolutely nothing to do with the false appearance of it....
Only Our ignorance of Truth of Being is Responsible for the False Appearance of that which we believe is Mortal.
Right Here, Right Now, ONLY Infinite, Perfect, Omnipresent Spirit is!!
Spirit is. Therefore, I Am!
He that Realizes He is the Son of God has Eternal Life! He then walks through the mortal appearance a Divine Being, in who the 5 Senses of Mortality have been Impersonalized, therefore hold no power over him. His fidelity is to the Immortal Spirit he is, and no longer to the mortal sense of life not of God.

You are not in true peace sir. No disrespect. Been where you are.
Kanye and humility are opposite words.
So you know God because you read the Bible? Read Joshua 24 and explain verse 19. Jesus forgives sins, the God of Moses does not. That book has multiple Gods in it, yet people keep trying to pass it off as the word of one God.
Kanye is this teachable moment: As Christians we have to know what we are in this for. And be honest with ourselves. Are we in this for God or in this for ourselves?
Amen
I think as fallen, selfish, sinful creatures, the honest answer is 'for ourselves'; at least in part. God has ignited a flame in me I've never had for Him; a hunger for knowledge of Him and a deeper relationship with Him, and I was brought to faith 30 years ago. But, even as He is preparing me and doing a most wonderful work in me (for which I am immensely grateful), I don't feel comfortable saying that I have conceded to my innermost self that I am 100% in it solely for the glory of God. Self-preservation still plays an instinctual role, albeit a "walk-on" one at best these days, Praise God, but it's there nonetheless. That said, I know that I am driven- or being driven- daily in growing the Kingdom, putting "pebbles in shoes", and like a racehorse before the starting gun, raring to go when He wills I'm ready to serve & do the work for which I was created. 🙏❤️☝️✝️⛓️💥📖
Pride comes before a fall and haughty spirit before destruction.
It’s the reverse. Pride before destruction - haughty spirit before the fall. I used to think it was how you referenced till I was reading my Bible one day and went, "wait a second….." 😅
@@SkyClears I looked it up and you're right lol
@@SkyClears Thanks for the correction, for it is important to get it right.
With all do respect It's the same thing people let's consentrate on what's important. The Lord Jesus Christ fearing God is the beginning of understanding.🥰
Due respect 😂
Biblical prayer is worship based, not request based. The worshipper can say, "Your will be done," and joyfully accept what the sovereign Lord does with his or her request. Perhaps he failed to understand that it's not just about accepting Jesus it's about surrendering to him.
❤ sort of. The word prayer literally meant request so that is what the writers of the Bible meant. The Psalms are words of worship. The Our Father prayer Jesus taught us contains requests for forgiveness and to not be tempted away from His will.
If Kanye had prayed for strength to bear the trials and crosses God was giving him to give him the humility and strength he lacks and needs, he would have got an answer.
@SL-es5kb Yes I agree. What I mean to say is not that prayer is worship but that prayer must be rooted in worship.
Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name;
make known his deeds among the peoples!
Psalm 105:1
Kanye is the perfect illustration of the parable of the sower; the seed that falls on rocky ground.
Exactly my thought
Yes you are correct
🙏💯
That's not really true, because this assertion implies that Kanye was introduced to biblical Christianity. Christ's parable was about ppl who heard _the true gospel_ , and traditional Christianity has NEVER preached that gospel. It has preached various counterfeit messages about Christ and grace. As incredible as it is to believe, it is the truth. The entire world of traditional Christianity don't know what it is, even though it thinks the gospel is about Christ.
@@theeternalsbeliever1779 I agree the true gospel is not taught or preached in every church. Think you are speculating that he hasn’t heard the true gospel. Seems there were some clear signs/fruits that he came to saving faith. He’s had quite a few difficulties. Can’t imagine pain he felt when going through a very public divorce. Not sure I would do well either in a similar circumstance.

@@Headlock123456789 True, and absolutely fair point. 😅
@@forreview6878 the idea is not for people to get caught up with the lie..
One of the best things that happened in my life was when God told me that I could go and be an animation artist for Disney and then I could try to send money to my family for my terminally ill mom and I would miss out on the time we had left.
He made it clear that I'd regret it. Or ignore the dreams for me and let go of them and I could still write and draw any where and I would be happy. I decided to put my trust in God's will.
If I had left I would have been distracted by my job and be drawn away from God more and more until I turned against him! I had grown up in a church from birth and was mimicking things that I was taught and I was not saved though I believed I was. With God's grace and mercy and protection I got saved 10-09-22.
I just keep thanking God for his help and support and I just pray that Kanye and others like him will come to the truth before its too late
Kanye just showed who he was always worshipping. I pray the Lord grants him humility and he gets to know the real God of the Bible.
hit the nail on the head
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
He was yoked with Joel Osteen, the resulting theology comes as no surprise.
You took the words out of my mouth !
People take this guy way too seriously
Elaborate? Take Nate seriously or Kanye?
Kanye
The guy who's clearly off his meds
exactly
@@christophekeating21elaborate? Nate is off his meds or Kanye?
He didn't say that we depend on Jesus too much that we don't put the Word in ourselves. He said that we don't put the "work in" ourselves
Agreed, that’s what I think he said. It probably just doesn’t sound right because of all the ridiculous garbage he put in his mouth.
Well he didnt either....
Kanye was never a Christian. It is more clear now but for anyone who has a relationship with God and is in the word, you could always see the separation from Kanye and Gods word.
Not shocking considering the fact that he was "discipled" by Joel Osteen
I appreciate Kanye’s honesty. We all act like we’re the god of ourselves when we sin. That being said, I could see right through the artificial Christianity that he was portraying starting a couple years ago.
I just came on here to thank you for doing these videos, please know that what you're doing is a huge benefit. Just today I had a discussion with someone about the Bible and slavery. Usually if I'm honest I wouldn't be able to approach the situation the right way but I actually asked them to show me in the Bible what they meant. And each time we did so we looked at the context of the text then the ACTUAL meaning of the text. It got to the point they stopped quoting scripture and they just tried to go for personal jabs at which point I assesed where this was coming from and I could see that he wasn't a scoffer but someone who wanted to know but just didn't know how to defend his point without the jabs. So I brought the focus back on topic and made them see the light and they conceeded. I don't just mean conceeded but they realised what they believed was wrong so please pray that the seed that has been sown God will develop into a tree for his kingdom!
This is only after 2 WEEKS of watching your videos. God bless you and please know, what you are imparting in us (those of us who will really hear what you're trying to teach and what I believe God wants us to know) will be able to stand not just on but FOR the truth the right way.🙏🏾
Kanye is a visionary at heart. That said, a vision other than his own is likely a massive struggle to submit to, align with, and trust in. I have no idea how wholesome his discipleship was or wasn't, but it sounds as though he sees faith and work as seperate while believing that "godly fear" and "fear of man" are the same. I pray that he's convicted by the Spirit to dive deeper into the Word as neither music, nor intellectualism, nor the world can give what he appears to be searching for. Thanks for another interesting video. May God continue to bless according to His will.
Kanye needs to understand when you follow Jesus Christ ways, you're going to suffer persecution and downfalls, but you will find greater riches from them.
No greater riches is spirituality
Have you suffered, been persecuted, and had downfalls?
@@SpiritDetective-jd7wx I have a brain tumor which was malignant and every neurologist I have seen if they removed the entire brain tumor, I would be a wheelchair. I did have radiation on it which was not successful nut I also had brain surgery where the neurosurgeon successfully removed some of the tumor.
3:50 I’m pretty sure he said we don’t put the work in ourselves, not word.
I think you're right, but he still said right before that Jesus didnt show up, and then later claims to be God or his own God so he' still currently lost.
Your video was biblically accurate. The one thing I feel it was lacking is how prevalent the little god theology is preached from the pulpit (more videos on this subject matter would help the body of Christ). It's clear to me that Kanye has bent his ears to wrong teachings. Shame on the ones that have taught the WORD to him inaccurately. He does need to do his due diligence, repent and come to his Lord and Savior on bent knee 🙏
Yes, I was wondering about this myself. It goes back to the lie, "you will be like God," which is I guess the second-oldest lie in human history, right after "you will not surely die." The evil one doesn't need new material when the old stuff still works. And we're all susceptible, when we choose our own way over the Lord's.
Exactly right.@@kconnolly9464
Jesse Duplantis and Mike Todd come to mind. False teachers like that little god thing
If we look to man instead of God we'll be led astray and left wanting!
That's right
One of the primary things I have learned through God’s word is his plan isn’t yours. But it is also better! You made a video at the beginning of the year that inspired me Nate. You said “are you going to let God be the author of your life?” Now if my life is a story, who do I want to write it? Which author will create a greater story of adventure and triumph? The answer is obvious.
I needed to hear this message Nate. God bless you and Bless the Lord for working through you to reach so many of us
Everytime Nate talks about a person/situation in a video it feels like he always turns and talks straight to me. Great video.
This reminds me of the story of Job. If Job failed completely.
But in real life the test of job is spread out so that it doesn't end.
One of the saddest things to witness is the result of a false conversion. Way too many people are not informed of the true price of following Jesus. I believe yhe reason is that the price is a big turnoff for most people.
Some seeds fell on swallow ground....rocky soil....
I dont think he is well. That's sad. That's why I don't pay attention to him.
Kanye’s prayers are NOT in alignment with God’s will. They’re in alignment with the world and worldly things. That’s why they are not answered.
Fear is not being afraid. Fear is respect, awe and reverence towards God. All components of love.
The greatest gift that we've ever been given was an unanswered prayer, Jesus said "Father if You're willing, take this cup from Me, yet not My will but Yours be done" Luke 22:42
Wow, I'll be thinking about this all day...
"Imma let you finish" CLASSIC 🤣
I laughed out loud 😂
That was perfect 👌 😂😂😂
I definitely needed to hear this today! Love your channel! 😊
Kanye is speaking of the “other” Jesus people are worshipping - the same one the True Jesus our Savior warned us about in Matthew 24. It seems Kanye is toting some serious demons. We all need to pray for Kanye to find a true fear of the Lord so He can come to true salvation.
@NateSala You preached up in here! Thank you sir for lifting the standard!
This is something I've been struggling with myself, just a few hours ago I was fighting hard to see a lesson in my struggles and not give into the idea that God had just left me in my own hands. This was a reminder that I needed. So thank you.
My last pastor's name was Nate too lol. I want to be a wise disciple, I'm binge-watching all your videos. I thank God that I found this channel. Nate, I appreciate your ministry thank you for helping me get to know my God and Jesus better.
Around 3:40 I think Kanye said "work" not word, and its just how he pronounced it is the confusion. He does go on to say next that Christians pray instead of physically doing something, and how when God didn't answer him he will do it himself, so it's most likely "work" not "word.
(Fear of the LORD) in german it says "Ehrfurcht"..Ehr = Honor..and furcht = fear..the meaning of "Ehrfurcht" is, "High regard, respect for the dignity, majesty of a person, a being.."
To me it sounded like he said, “ we depend on Jesus so much we don’t put in the WORK ourselves.”
It's relatable... two years of praying and reading the Bible, listening seremons ever night before sleep, forgiving all those who have offended me, sharing the gospel helping those in need has gotten me absolutely no where, im just as alone and depressed, without any hope for better future, but the Christian advice is that im not bringing glory to God and i should just say Jesus saved me from this and that.. yeah he sure took away my drink and my weed so i have literally no enjoyment in life... happy life has nothing to do with the bible but some people just think its got something to do with it, its really depressing book tbh..
@@Oozy9MillimeetahI'm sorry it has been your experience as of now.
If I may ask, what passions and talents do you have in life ? You mentioned using substances to "have fun", but I'm sure you have other/healthier interests. Maybe looking to join a community organized around a shared interest can help you fight off the isolation and loneliness. In Genesis, God created Eve because it wasn't good for Adam, who had all mankind in him, to be alone. So He created a creature similar to Adam, yet different from him so they could go through life together. Hopefully, finding a good tribe will help with one part of the problem. Take care.

God didn't give me what I wanted. He didn't grant my wishes and appear before me when I asked, even demanded. Therefore I owe Him nothing and if wants me to follow Him he knows my demands. I'll be waiting. - Kayne West
And why should God give you something that can change the wheels of time and your relation to other humanlings?
God giving you what you want is like Rick and Morty changing the timeline.
Sometimes God not answering is the only answer we need. Looking back in my life if God would have granted my wish I would have been in a much worse place hindsight.
His ways are not our way and his thoughts are higher than our thoughts. He does what he does for our best and benefit. Thank God that He sees the whole picture and not what I’m seeing right in front of me.
I get the desire to correct every theological error in the effort to be biblically accurate. I believe that there is a time and place for that, especially when a person sincerely believes what they are purporting. However, when I hear Kanye, as a pastor I am hearing someone that wasn't properly discipled, someone that's been disillusioned, and ultimately someone that's broken. I'm listening for the metanarrative that addressing the roots and heart issues from which the mouth speaks. I doubt that he is speaking from conviction but rather from hurt and emotions (which change with time). I condemn his speech and proclamation about being god, speaking against the biblical understanding of the fear of God, and his angst against a form of "Christianity" that isn't rooted in Jesus and his gospel. Those things are all wrong and should be corrected. I just think that what the church needs to learn is how to reach, connect (build healthy relationship with), and gently restore people that are in sin.
2:10-2:27 All I could say to Kanye is Proverb 3:5-6
I'm not surprised that he doesn't bow down to God. He is all about himself
My thoughts of him and his understanding of a Christian. I see him as wanting to have power over his everyday choices and he sees weakness in following Christ and the teachings because then he may have to feel remorse for things he has done or wants to do.
Normal pride filled Hollywood type nonsense. Actress Shirley MacClain was making similar claims back in the 80s.
Wow, I think we just had a Sunday service near the end there.
He has always been a worshipper of self above all else. Once he realized Jesus wasn’t there to serve him he abandoned it
It’s exactly the same as being unsaved. Self worship “Do what Thy Wilt”
The entitlement is out of this world! People actually think that God owes them there every wish in return for absolutely nothing. Even before I ever opened up a Bible for the first time I knew better. If they can't back anything up with scripture they're fake
I wonder what pastor he had mentoring him that he felt like Jesus was his genie in the lamp.
God will not be mocked…. 😢
I know that if my prayer is righteous God will answer it and there was selfish prayers he said no to ... But I always bow and say Lord you only are God .. if he would read the word he could learn how to please God ❤️🔥🧑🌾🏡
To fear God is to revere Him! Also He gives us every breath and heartbeat...so there's that!❣
Can you imagine the hubris of someone who says they don't fear God. I also can't imagine someone believing they are God. Delusions of Grandeur.
God bless you Nate, my prayers are with you brother in Christ 😇😇😇.
Talking about the fear of the Lord you read Proverbs 14:26, but 27 is also really spectacular.
“Father, not my will, but yours” Jesus prayed this in the garden before he was arrested and I try to remember this every time I go to the Lord in prayer. Sometimes, God answer to our request is no. It can be hard to accept at times but I know that God’s plans are bigger and better than mine.
The segment where Kanye states that people rely too much on Jesus he says that they don't put the "work in" which the Holy Bible also talks about. Basically, waiting for Jesus to do things that God has given us the ability to handle with assistance from our brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. Now don't get me wrong, this means that we have to be actively seeking God and building our relationship daily with him by reading his word and asking for God to give us discernment to understand what we are reading and how it applies to our own ups and downs. At the end of the day, we have to continuously pray for these individuals and do what we need to do so that we don't get drawn into this dangerous way of thinking.
Such a great video nate 👏🏽
Amen brother. The proper fear is part of the saving work of God.
I needed to hear this. Thank you.
I pray the Holy Spirit strengthen and persevere all of us.
Kanye’s consistency is about what you’d expect from someone with his mental illnesses. He needs less people trying to exploit him and more people who care enough to pray for him and give him guidance. Of course it’s hard to receive guidance when you have such an ego.
I'm just shy of 5 mins in. You can not pray your way out of consequences or the experience God has for you. Bottom line is he has presented to have no faith. He wants God to give him what Kanye wants, and that's not happening because you don't command God. He has to grow up and read the word more.
Kanye reminds me of the rich young ruler. “I will do whatever you tell me Jesus.” But when God says No or something unexpected, he walks away. Hopefully God changes his heart, that’s the only way any of us can boast of our salvation, thru God.
When Kanye started talking about the juice, i knew it was gonna turn sour...
"Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil,...
...As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away."
Be like the wise in Daniel 11 who fall/ stumble for a time to be refined, ask God for help and get back up.
It sounded to me like he said, “We depend so much on Jesus that we don’t put the WORK in, ourselves.” Sounded like he clarified it when in his next sentence he said something about how we say , “I’ll pray for you,” when we could be actually, physically DOING something. That’s how I heard it, anyway. But I agree, Kanye is a nut shy of a squirrel’s stash and he definitely needs a whole lotta prayer.
YES! Faith without works is dead! 👏🏻
He said he is the God of his own life.. so I assume he meant he is in charge of his own life and outcomes. Which is sad not to trust in our creator whatever we go through in this world. We need to keep our eyes fixed on our eternity with him and rejoice in him because by his grace this is given
@Dylan-kz... you're spot on... this is akin to a young teenager who thinks he has the world figured out and is learning that your parents won't bow to your every demand ❤
Question is why do we care at all what Kanye has to say or what he thinks. Should we consider what he thinks and what he says just because he is famous? I don't think so. He is just like the rest of us. I do agree with you on the point that we should pray for each other.
I think some of Kanye's statements show an unfortunate lack of discipleship, which we as pastors and teachers, have generally failed at over the past few decades.
Assuming he was actually discipled by a true follower of Jesus Christ, but wait, even if he was, does it mean that it was the fault of his teacher? Or, was/is Kanye a Judas all along? Just a thought.
@Wisedisciple So glad you addressed this biblically. Not many videos took us to the scriptures and that’s a big deal since Kanye is such a public figure. We gotta take it to the scriptures
He said, "I'm the god of me." Not, "I am god". Which is basically the original rebellion tempted by satan.
literally satanisms ideology "my will be done."
Listen to the whole interview. He said both. First he said he IS god, then he said he is the god of himself.
I have always explained to my kids that we should always pray but sometimes the answer is no and that, that is okay.
I needed to hear this message today. May I never be in a place of becoming so angry and jaded with God’s plan that I become my own god. God’s ways are higher than mine and while I don’t always understand the plan he has, I know it will work for good. Help me Lord, to live by faith.🙏🏾
The fear of the Lord is what you say, but it goes beyond that. It's more like bring awestruck and the result that God wants from it is humility.
I love your videos!! I would definitely love to see you debate or react to other religions videos.
When you are disobedient and REBELLIOUS the lord God will not answer nor will he hear you/ money is KANYE god...
Lol Jesus doesn't show up when you want sweetheart. He shows us when the time is right for you. I wasn't even looking for Jesus and He showed up at just the right time ❤. We are so obsessed with ourselves, and what we want and what we need and when we need it that we expect God to put together workarounds to please us.... We are not here to serve ourselves and our God.
God's timing not ours
You being a former atheist. I would love to hear your reaction to Mindshift. This former man of God for 30 years makes video after video making his case against God. I would hope and love to see a rebuttal to his points. I haven't heard any Christian youtuber confront his allegations.
I’d love to hear some more as well. But Braxton hunter on @trinityradio did a wonderful response to minshift on his channel. You should definitely check it out!
I'm a fan of him and I would like to see someone try and rebuttal him tbh. Been a Christian for all my life and thanks to him I have broken the chains that held me. I feel so free
I felt like gojo when he was high off life.
I've made some replies on his videos although I'm not a "RUclipsr" because I thought he was genuinely interested in getting answers to his questions. Sadly, he only responded to one comment and it wasn't really to engage just to reiterate he thinks God is a horrible monster for old testament atrocities. I've watched enough of his videos to realize he will take the time to like nearly every comment that agrees with him but it's rare to see him respond to a challenge. His followers occasionally will though.
@@someguywithalowbudget1320 I’m not sure if Trent Horn has directly addressed him, but I’m pretty sure that some of his points may be addressed.
I honestly think that a lot of issues come from evangelicalism in particular, which can sometimes try to oversimplify things that cannot be and end up creating more problems than solutions that can easily be poked in (eg the penal substitution of the cross. IMO the Orthodox view of it is the only truly valid explanation for why Jesus had to die).
Tbh i am also now sometimes wary of RUclips apologists (although they are generally okay), because sometimes the correct answer to dilemmas such as faith vs works, and gospel discrepancies are not rooted in Protestant sola scriptura, which might get some of their audience upset. The church fathers to discuss the OT and why certain things happen, but that involves an authoritative interpretation that can clash against the worldview of some RUclips apologists. And tbh, I am still Christian, I believe that history does affirm and attest to Jesus, but I am unsure what to make of this tendency they have sometimes. Do they want biblical truth no matter the implications, or do they want truth as long as it doesn’t clash with evangelical tenets?
Amen Nate!!!
I was thinking the same thing. Yhis is so sad! I will pray for him!
Why would God answer prayers that benefit the devil? It's simple, live for God and not for yourself
What many Christians fail to realize is that we have to stop thinking that all we have to do is pray for things to go our way just by praying and waiting for God to do everything for us. It does not work that way. I personally know people who do absolutely nothing and are miserable (being Christian) and bad-mouthing God because life hasn't changed for the better. I'm guilty of doing the same thing. God gave us legs and arms and a brain. God always provides a way but we have to do some work. We have to discern God's way of helping us but ultimately, it is up to us and what we do or don't do that determines either a change or not. We are not supposed to sit around waiting for miracles to fall on our laps. We have to go out and believe we are going to get where we want to go and our actions will bring things to fruition. We have to put in some work of our own. God bless you if you are reading this comment. Shalom.
4:28 What he said was, sometimes we pray to Jesus, and we don't put the work in ourselves (not the Word).
Hallelujah Nate!🕊
I am saddened about Kanye and everyone else who thought they put their trust in Jesus and expected Jesus to be their servant. Jesus is Lord, and we are NOT. Perhaps Kanye misunderstood the truth of Jesu as Lord or King to mean that Jesus would always come to our beckon call when we prayed. And it is EASY to fall into that false theology. And many pastors make us feel that God is there to serve our needs. No matter what we pray for, Jesus will give it to us. Wow - a quick read through James' letter will straighten us out. There are times to pray supplications asking the Lord for His help and there are times when our prayers are statements of faith in God's Word where we take authority over the wiles of the enemy and stand, trusting in God's Word and promises. And our prayers must be in alignment with God's will.
Faith is characterized by TRUST in the authority of God's Word and our obedience to that Word - in our thoughts, desires and our deeds. Faith is NOT a by-word to use but an actual way of life. If Kanye really came to the Lord, he was a babe in Christ but the people around him made him believe that his talent, fame and money were things that the Lord depended on for God's plans and purpose. God doesn't NEED us but He graciously allows us to share in His plans, and depending on our level of maturity in Christ, He will share more of His Ways and purposes with us. As we grow in the Lord, then we are allowed to see more of God's spiritual truths. If we remain puffed up, He shuns us until we learn what obedience and trust is. I pray for Kanye and everyone I know that has this "false Jesus" as their God - a Jesus who is their servant and not their Loving Lord and Savior.
Kanye says Jesus did not "show up." Does he really mean Jesus did not give him what he wanted?
So many people think when God answers their prayers with a No, or a Wait, it means He "Didn't answer my prayers. " So, God doesn't exist.
"I had to get up and do it myself. " Um, Gos almost always makes us DO something. He opens the doors, creates the contacts, and makes the possibilities possible. Kayne makes the same mistakes most of the world makes. He takes God, and ALL of his blessings, for granted. Hopefully, he will open his eyes before it's too late.
He said "we don't put the work in ourselves " He's saying that individuals depend on Jesus to solve problems instead of the individual putting work and effort into life.
He said we rely on Jesus so much but we don't do the *work* ourselves, not "word."
Don't forget Kanye admitted to sacrificing his own Mom to be where he's at now.
8:03 he saying that ultimately, and up until the end he’s in control of his own destiny. It’s kinda like saying I don’t eat food and I don’t drink any beverages especially water and I’m gonna live to be 100 without nourishing my body… I’m pretty sure that’s not gonna workout very well for him and if Heaven is the throne of The God of Israel and the Bible is true (and I’m convinced that it is) then preferring his own ways and not seeking the ways that the God of the Bible has set for humanity will end up with him in hot water…pun intended. We should pray for him as it’s what the saved are called to do.
First 5 ish min.. these are things I thought way before I was saved .. sheesh. I really pray he is actually not doing this on purpose and all his work prior wasn't built on deception.. God bless nate for sharing and explaining the real truth in the Word. Scary because those who follow him in such a way, may actually believe him.. smh
Sad. Not surprising. But sad. Will pray for him. There is MUCH to be said for staying the course and perseverance.
4:33 he is saying, we don’t put the work in. I understand the point he’s making he’s saying that we depends so much on Jesus that we won’t do anything and we’ll just sit around and let him work.
He is God because he Sings Songs 🤭🤣🤣🤣 Wow. I guess he is immortal and will live Forever. 🤦🤦♂️
He is a legend in is own mind. I recently watched a Jason Whitlock video about P. Diddy (made before his home was raided) and the deep underworld of Hip Hip/Rap and it is absolutely no surprise that it's diabolical and it's meant to destroy society.
