Thank you Pastor Kelly for being the best SDA pastor for our time! I believe God has raised you for sure for this time. Thank you for being bold, courageous and speaking the word of God with conviction, brilliance and compassion! I wish U were our Pastor here in Miami FL! Listen to your sermons all the time and we are passing them down to friends etc. We are small groups Ministry in Miami dedicated to protecting family and children and introducing them to Jesus and the Everlasting gospel. Please pray for us we love you Pastor Kelly and your family.
I might be a year late in finding and hearing this message….but I can’t AMEN this sermon enough!!!! Love love love this message of truth and reality!! Thank you
The "church" has been too busy looking after their pocketbooks; supporting a traitorous reprobate for office. My family member said it's best to vote for the lesser of 2 evils. I don't believe that. Why choose ANY evil? That's a compromise and copout. "His will IS going to be done on Earth.." regardless of who we vote for. Murderer/liar or Traitor/liar? Who would you invite to your home? "The church has lost its savor" big time!
Thank you Lord for reserving shepherds like Ron Kelly, for the end of this world, to present the truth as it is to your flock . You know your flock needs more men like this one.
God bless you for Pastor Kelly! I thank the Lord for raising strong leaders like you. May His light, truth, grace, mercy, compassion and love never leave you. We are praying for you and all of God's leaders in and out of pur church that will be coming in. God uses you and other faithful ones to wake up the sleeping church. We've been so blessed!
Thank you Pastor Ron Kelly for being a true Shepherd of the flock for these times. For your one of the few who are true and preaching God's word with conviction and with compassion.
Thank you, pastor Kelly, for so much needed message. You totally nailed it! May God continue strenghtening you so your feet never slip off the Rock of truth.
If the church is a whimper in the face of this level of evil what makes it think it can give the loud cry when the Sunday law comes? Thank you for having the courage to speak up loud and clear!
@@anthonyallen9935 What political speeches? We have become so used to blindly and passively following leaders in our Church even in clearly wrong directions and activities that we can't distinguish evil from good, right from wrong, principles from preferences, etc. A prayerful and respectful response is NOT wrong; it is imperative. We must be the head and NOT the tail.
@@jimijames7703 We must be the head and not the tail in following the principles and practices of Jesus. The head in understanding the principles of prophetic interpretation and fulfillment. The head in understanding the times and signs of the times. The head in understanding and sharing the principles and interpretations of religious liberty. The head in helping to solves the health emergency (pandemic) and health crisis that's bankrupting this country physically, mentally, socially, spiritually and financially, through the health message entrusted to us as a Church and from which we have grossly deviated. The head in many, many other ways to which we must return; proper education, agriculture, to help feed a starving world, etc. Review from the Bible the concept of God's people being the head and not the tail. It appears in more than one scenario. JESUS is the Light of the world; ye are the light of the world. Jesus is the Son of God; we are the sons and daughters of God. Etc.Deep, NOT superficial study of the Word is needed in these days. "Believe in the Lord your God so shall ye be established; believe His prophets so shall ye prosper." 2 Chronicles 20:20 God in His great mercy foreseeing world condition at the end gave us the prophetic gift to help us understand these times and get through them. Studying the Scriptures and the commentaries given through Divine inspiration give us insights that should make us the head and NOT the tail, but ONLY IF WE BELIEVE WHAT WE STUDY! Happy Sabbath, Brother. God bless you and yours.
@@jimijames7703 Search your scriptures; the head is the Truth, the tail is the lie. (Recall that Christ said "I am the truth" and also that Paul wrote that "It is not I, but Christ who liveth in me." Also recall that Satan drew a third of the stars from heaven, with his tail, i.e. with his lies.) It would be unwise to imply your sister is blaspheming when she is rightly interpreting the Word. "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"
I've read the statement of stance from the GC and I am flabbergasted. In one part they agree that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Yet they believe it's fine to put something untested and dangerous into that body temple? I fail to understand that reasoning. We are held accountable by God for what we do to our bodies, or what we allow to be done to them. It seems they are following the "science falsely so called" and believing it to be safe and correct. I just praise God for the people who are willing to stand up and be counted.
Sister Julie, I am likewise appalled. Such "advisors" and "leaders" cannot possibly have investigated the origins of the cell tissues used to cultivate these viruses used in research. I warn you, it is a horrific tale, immensely cruel, and not at all what we are told. (What is, in these times?) But we should be clear that as followers of Christ we will never partake of such things, nor seek to profit from such evils.
We have just heard what the MI conf. has chosen to do to Pastor Kelly… we are now definitely in the last of the last days! May God give each of us the courage to stand for the love of God, to support those who are suffering from the arrogance of those who have decided they know more than our Lord & choose to punish God’s devoted workers! This is so absolutely pertinent to our times, bless you Pastors Kelly & Vine!!!
Shedding tears and prayers everyday for the people of GOD. I have been so sad as to why most of the CHURCH the bride of CHRIST is still asleep. Thank you sir and thanking the GOD of all the universe for HIS promises are true. There will be a remnant in the end that will do great exploits.
SORRY Pastor but you beat about the BUSH in all your illusive phases that I cannot discerned what is a thus saith the LORD & WHAT isn't. JESUS said, "LET YOUR YEA be YEA, & YOUR Nay be NAY!!! PREACH the GOSPEL & HELP the sheep HEAR, LEARN, UNDERSTAND & PRACTICE the LIVING WORDS AMEN.🙏🙏🙏

The blind man Jesus healed was never fooled by 'appearances' he knew the hypocrisy of the leaders from their tone of voice and their ignorance of his situation. It is better to be physically blind than spiritually blind.
May the good Lord continue to bless you and your ministry Pastor Kelly in the name of Jesus. Indeed Daniel's are wanted to work for Jesus and thank you for the challenge, may the Lord keep me and all of us strong and may those who come behind us find us faithful to this great mission in Jesus name, Amen 🙏. God bless you Sir🙏
it crosses my mind that freedom (can be) a burden... and heart fire is the solution. I was brought up RC but I like to think the church I went to for one year in Japan, where they gave us bible studies opened my heart for more learning. I was born French Canadian but I 'd like to thank the American Anglosphere , should I say the Christian people that have enlightened me on this journey.. through secularism vs "Church thinking" which was so pervasive in my youth. I can't thank you enough for tackling this monster that is this political Sars virus
I am so glad to finally learn of some sda people and conferences that didn't bow to ba'al. I felt like leaving the church because of their error, on this and other things. But I think it is to be a remnant in the remnant so I'm still with it. Thank you for this sermon, Pastor. 😁🙏
Isaiah 8:16 "Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples." The seal of God is the whole 10 commandments, written in our hearts by Jesus (Hebrews 8:10), which He summed up as loving God with our whole hearts and our neighbor as ourselves (Mark 12:30,31). It is foolish to think that we could "keep the Sabbath" while trampling on the rights of the concience of our neighbor, and still receive the seal of God and make it to His kingdom in this unconverted state. Thank you pastor Kelly.
My niece,by marriage (TN), sent me this link the other day in this early 2022, summer season. So very impressed by the message (from a my theologically- ideological Christian 7th-day Adventist rear-view perspective of COVID), I forwarded this link to my son, (KS). He has decided to take Bible studies, after being away from our Church for more than 30 years. And yes, I ask for prayers as he comes home to Jesus; but I encourage us all to continue in prayer, Bible study, service, bathed in Agape. . .knowing this issue is only part of what Jesus said the "... are beginning of sorrows", (Matthew 24:8) would be like--again, in part. Just the same, we take courage in our daily rounds of life to work faithfully Matthew --28:19--, "... for He is faithful that promised", (Hebrews 10:23). Moreover, I thank my God and Saviour that even as we experience the signs of these times, "Solos Scriptural" with Sis. E. G. White-- "...the spirit of prophecy, (Revelation 12:17, 14:12, 19:10). While John 9:4, examples & exhorts for the happenings around us, Romans 12:3, counsels our spirits by the Holy Spirit toward the Christ-like manners we will cherish as members in the body (Church); Christ Jesus ever as head. So, while we may "disagree" in matters that don't fly in the face of a clear "thus saith the Lord," we remain loving--not "disagreeable", as the "world" watches Us. . .'til Jesus comes for Us, (Hebrews 10:37)! 🙏 🌹 Praying 🙏
PS: Not sure why a portion of my comment transmitted with a strike through. I stand in total with the Lord's leading in all I've written. May He continue to lead and bless.
Pastor Kelly's challenge at the end of the sermon, in light of the SWUC letter, reminds me of Mordecai's charge to Esther--Do something! Are we the generation of SDAs alive at "such a time as this" who have like faith and courage and will stand for religious liberties for others/ourselves, and ultimately see God triumph over the global coercion which has amassed such startling momentum during 2020-2021? May God help us!
Most powerful sermon. Thanks so much. 3 military M.D. s called whistle blowers have called attention to all cause deaths from 18-39 year olds since 21. Cancer is up 130 percent. Heart issues over the top. Keep lining up everyone. Center in the Lord.
Let the church hear what the Spirit is saying to God's church at this critical moment! We have no excuse for our dangerous blindness! Have mercy on us Lord Amen & we praise God for the message & His messenger Amen 🙏
This is my second time listening to this message. (July 2023) As I've pondered the Seventh-day Adventist people's response to the pestilence, I've come to a few conclusions: 1. Members are so used to doing what Pastors advocate without due consideration to how it lines up with what God says that when the leaders advised to take the shot most everyone did it quickly. 2. Because the members were not strong in true biblical doctrinal understanding or in the knowledge of the health principles given to our Church through the Pen of Inspiration. Had we been more diligent and humble in learning the health message, we would be able to make wiser decisions in health choices. 3. Members must keep in mind that usually the Church organization will end up pushing the government's directives ahead of the biblical teachings. O, how we need spiritual discernment and love of truth to obey God rather than man. 4. God has given us counsel in regard to all areas of our work and actually tells us how the work should be done.Those who receive the counsel written in 2 Chronicles 20:20 (last part) have the benefit of divine inspiration. Sadly, so many have chosen to ignore or reject the Counsels of the Spirit of God. Lord have mercy on your people.
God bless you Pastor for standing alone, I know not one other Pastor willing to stand for God’s gift of freedom. I’m sure you receive a lot of hate for calling out the obvious, the thing others are trying to turn a blind eye too. Remember John the Baptist? He pointed out error too and it cost him his life. But indeed he will have his eternally. May God protect you and continue to give you John like courage and stamina. ❤️
Thus message has helped me so much thank you Pastor , I wish you can vist my country and my church one day to talk to our church members. I live in Trinidad 🇹🇹 in the Caribbean, I am a Seventh day Adventist. Please come if you can.🙏
When people, critically needed people, were losing their jobs simply by exercising their freedom of choice, it confirmed to me how bereft of morality this society , those in power specifically, have truly become.
Peace and plenty will surely create cowardice. The church that is trapped in plenty and temporary peace will dull in the avalanche of self destruction, will it therefore stand to the loud cry?
"Pastor Kelly, many of us will continue praying for you and the leadership at the Village SDA Church. However, this sermon feels as though it were delivered by someone entirely different compared to your Crucial Conversations sermon. Because I care about you, I must speak the truth: the words you have shared in this sermon will come back to judge you in light of what you said in Crucial Conversations."
Pastor Kelly, respectfully, Here is the verse: John 9:35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God? HE said the SON of GOD, not the Son of Man. That is why JESUS allowed the man to worship him.
There were more references to the secular world (baseball, football, government, Shakespeare, jokes, legends, and mandates) than there were references to the Bible.
You are welcome to replay the sermon, listening carefully to it. Then you can answer your own question. Listen as often as you need to to draw your own conclusions. Pray for spiritual discernment before and as you listen. Blessings to you.
This sermon is in the spirit of ELLEN G WHITE She was a fighter and the church SHIP should take on the ICEBERG head on . In faith the GOD is in control or has the church jackknifed the ship in the Suez canal 🤣 It will cause a shaking
The truth will march on, whether you believe it or not.God will never leave people in the dark .He,God leaves things to mature, for all to see the truth ,so let's wait and ask the unfolder of mystery to unfold this, in prayer .Amen Amen.
You all have made your Goliath a Sunday law. Will you be deceived when something greater comes against you than a Sunday law which is now more doubtful than you just being squashed for if you were Christians? Satan has you fooled and busy and not increasing the body of Christ but leading people into blind formation built upon a false trust in Jesus Christ
It is difficult to decide which stance of the SDA church is the most evil: A) its position on abortion on demand or B) its position on COVID vaccine mandates I have been a life-long, faithful Adventist, and Ron and Colleen know this, but I do not want to be part of it anymore.
So now your ready to serve Christ as His remnant instead of the service of church but the gospel in the church. Dont throw the baby out with the bath water... look higher, look not to your brothers but to Christ and He has a church. It will appear to fall... finish the race! Take courage, look away from self read Revelation chapter 3 and sda commentary on it...🙏
You have been faithfully Adventist. That's the problem right there. Now is your big opportunity to become a true and faithful Seventh-day Adventist Christian living by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God--written by the Canonical and the contemporary messengers of God. May God bless you as you explore the truths of God's Word and seek to live by them.
This preacher is so off track, firstly the Springboks were not the underdog, he needs to check his facts, secondly, never once did Jesus challenge the authorities, even during his trial but he did challenge the the church leaders, as we need to be challenging this preacher, just like the Pharisees, he has his own agenda at the peoples expence!
In a theocracy, the religious authorities are the civil authorities. Jesus challenged the Sanhedrin again and again for their perversion of God’s system of salvation and misrepresentation of God’s character. He stood for truth. So should we.
@@jc33486 Jesus was challenging the church, not the authorities. The Romans were the authority of the day and the Remnants of the iron in the legs extends to this day and to the end of time in the feet and in the clay. Barabas challenged the Romans as does trump and Putin today. They will fail becsuse we have the prophesy of Nebuchadnezzars statue. The next kingdom is that of Jesus's. So if we want relative peace, we had beter accept the Roman's authority because they ate doing the job ordained for them to do, namely to reinforce the clay and to keep the statue from tumbling. We must stop corroding the iron.
I'm wondering if you listened to the entire message before you decided to unsubscribe. He quotes at least a dozen scriptures specifically from throughout the entire book of John with references to Paul, Peter, and the book of Revelation. Please listen through the entire message if you didn't before you make your conclusions.
@@discern3392 I haven't come across any EGW statement where she quoted any of the funding fathers of the USA. In contrary she made a very serious comment about Thomas Paine and his religious orientation. And let me remind you that Nelson Mandela had been persona non grata in US until Barack Obama became a president of America.
@@sharontanghal3360 I also wonder about how well you have been informed about Ted Roosevelt and Nelson Mandela and appropriateness of even mentioning their names in a sermon which is supposed to be based on the Bible.
@@888mladen I was simply answering your question when you asked where is the Word of God in the sermon. The whole message was about daring to be courageous enough to speak out against what is wrong even if it comes at a cost of division. This is pretty plain throughout scripture. Then using numerous examples from the book of John, the sermon illustrated how God leads us to situations where we have to stand up for what we believe in even when it goes against religious leaders or the majority who are teaching or doing wrong things. He used the example of the blind man Jesus healed (referring to John 9) having the boldness to speak truth even when it went against the Pharasees and religious leaders of the day. You can agree or disagree with the message but this was the whole point. It seems you're so focused on the 1 or 2 trees that you missed the big picture (the forest if you will) which was the whole heart of the message: speaking out against coercion and protecting the freedom of conscience.
Note how many times in this sermon he says "I want everyone listening to me......" we do not come to church to listen to a man, we come to hear a message from the Lord and this is not it!
You are right, but… God uses man (you and me), in this case Pastor Ron to arrest our attention to something very important that we need to give special attention to. I do not think Pastor is taking credit for himself. Go bless you my brother as you continue to listen God’s word.
that's all you got out of this sermon? I pity you. may God have mercy on your soul. this sermon is jam packed with life changing principles that will equip a person to endure till the end; to stand up to the enemy of our souls in these end times we live in. you should pray to God to remove the spirit of criticism from you.

Are we the generation of SDAs alive at "such a time as this" who have like faith and courage and will stand for religious liberties for others/ourselves, and ultimately see God triumph over the global coercion which has amassed such startling momentum during 2020-2021? May God help us!
Excellent sermon👍🏻
Most powerful sermon. Thanks so much. 3 military M.D. s called whistle blowers have called attention to all cause deaths from 18-39 year olds since 21. Cancer is up 130 percent. Heart issues over the top. Keep lining up everyone. Center in the Lord.
Let the church hear what the Spirit is saying to God's church at this critical moment! We have no excuse for our dangerous blindness! Have mercy on us Lord Amen & we praise God for the message & His messenger Amen 🙏
May God continue to bless and guide you Pastor , as you lead us and wake us up to reality.
Thanks Pastor Kelly , we need another 144000 like you . Xx p
Thank you, Pastor Ron Kelly. The Holy Spirit continues to bless me and countless others, through your ministry.
WOWZERS!! The best Black Lives Matter messages, given to the church, that I’ve heard to date.
Thank you for your courage and faith
Powerful message!
This is my second time listening to this message. (July 2023) As I've pondered the Seventh-day Adventist people's response to the pestilence, I've come to a few conclusions:
1. Members are so used to doing what Pastors advocate without due consideration to how it lines up with what God says that when the leaders advised to take the shot most everyone did it quickly.
2. Because the members were not strong in true biblical doctrinal understanding or in the knowledge of the health principles given to our Church through the Pen of Inspiration. Had we been more diligent and humble in learning the health message, we would be able to make wiser decisions in health choices.
3. Members must keep in mind that usually the Church organization will end up pushing the government's directives ahead of the biblical teachings. O, how we need spiritual discernment and love of truth to obey God rather than man.
4. God has given us counsel in regard to all areas of our work and actually tells us how the work should be done.Those who receive the counsel written in 2 Chronicles 20:20 (last part) have the benefit of divine inspiration. Sadly, so many have chosen to ignore or reject the Counsels of the Spirit of God. Lord have mercy on your people.
The Gospel of John showed the very Spiritual attributes of Jesus Christ!
God bless you Pastor for standing alone, I know not one other Pastor willing to stand for God’s gift of freedom. I’m sure you receive a lot of hate for calling out the obvious, the thing others are trying to turn a blind eye too. Remember John the Baptist? He pointed out error too and it cost him his life. But indeed he will have his eternally. May God protect you and continue to give you John like courage and stamina. ❤️
Conrad Vine is another good one to listen to
So is Walter Veith … Maranatha 😅😁🙏👏
Amazing message, thank you 🙏🏽
Thus message has helped me so much thank you Pastor , I wish you can vist my country and my church one day to talk to our church members. I live in Trinidad 🇹🇹 in the Caribbean, I am a Seventh day Adventist. Please come if you can.🙏
Thank you
Very Interesting.
And, if we can't stand up now in the face of persecution what makes us think we are going to stand up down the road when it really matters?
Amen!! Amen!! and Amen!!
I think Kelly should come back and listen to his own sermon because is sure seems like he caved to the Conference.
I needed to hear this
When people, critically needed people, were losing their jobs simply by exercising their freedom of choice, it confirmed to me how bereft of morality this society , those in power specifically, have truly become.
Peace and plenty will surely create cowardice. The church that is trapped in plenty and temporary peace will dull in the avalanche of self destruction, will it therefore stand to the loud cry?
Amen!
"Pastor Kelly, many of us will continue praying for you and the leadership at the Village SDA Church. However, this sermon feels as though it were delivered by someone entirely different compared to your Crucial Conversations sermon. Because I care about you, I must speak the truth: the words you have shared in this sermon will come back to judge you in light of what you said in Crucial Conversations."
Amen!!!!!
AMEN!!!
What happened with Pr. Ron Kelly, that we don’t see and can’t listen his on time sermons?
Only warriors who overcome Satan by faith alone survive
How can we get these notes?
Why can’t I share this?? 😯😯
Pastor Kelly, respectfully,
Here is the verse:
John 9:35
Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
HE said the SON of GOD, not the Son of Man. That is why JESUS allowed the man to worship him.
One is rather disaapointed with the SDA church as it never takes a stand against the govt.
There were more references to the secular world (baseball, football, government, Shakespeare, jokes, legends, and mandates) than there were references to the Bible.
Amen
Is this pastor saying that the vaccine is equivalent to Sabbath mandates/Mark of the Beast?
You are welcome to replay the sermon, listening carefully to it. Then you can answer your own question. Listen as often as you need to to draw your own conclusions. Pray for spiritual discernment before and as you listen. Blessings to you.
That’s a dumb question, just listen to it. Click and it will play.
@@joyagain4843 rude
👏
This sermon is in the spirit of ELLEN G WHITE
She was a fighter and the church SHIP should take on the ICEBERG head on . In faith the GOD is in control or has the church jackknifed the ship in the Suez canal 🤣
It will cause a shaking
The audio is not working
Amen Amen Amen
The truth will march on, whether you believe it or not.God will never leave people in the dark .He,God leaves things to mature, for all to see the truth ,so let's wait and ask the unfolder of mystery to unfold this, in prayer .Amen Amen.
You all have made your Goliath a Sunday law. Will you be deceived when something greater comes against you than a Sunday law which is now more doubtful than you just being squashed for if you were Christians? Satan has you fooled and busy and not increasing the body of Christ but leading people into blind formation built upon a false trust in Jesus Christ
Two years too late
It is difficult to decide which stance of the SDA church is the most evil: A) its position on abortion on demand or B) its position on COVID vaccine mandates
I have been a life-long, faithful Adventist, and Ron and Colleen know this, but I do not want to be part of it anymore.
So now your ready to serve Christ as His remnant instead of the service of church but the gospel in the church. Dont throw the baby out with the bath water... look higher, look not to your brothers but to Christ and He has a church. It will appear to fall... finish the race! Take courage, look away from self read Revelation chapter 3 and sda commentary on it...🙏
You have been faithfully Adventist. That's the problem right there. Now is your big opportunity to become a true and faithful Seventh-day Adventist Christian living by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God--written by the Canonical and the contemporary messengers of God. May God bless you as you explore the truths of God's Word and seek to live by them.
This preacher is so off track, firstly the Springboks were not the underdog, he needs to check his facts, secondly, never once did Jesus challenge the authorities, even during his trial but he did challenge the the church leaders, as we need to be challenging this preacher, just like the Pharisees, he has his own agenda at the peoples expence!
In a theocracy, the religious authorities are the civil authorities. Jesus challenged the Sanhedrin again and again for their perversion of God’s system of salvation and misrepresentation of God’s character. He stood for truth. So should we.
Your comment is unintelligible.
@@jc33486 Jesus was challenging the church, not the authorities. The Romans were the authority of the day and the Remnants of the iron in the legs extends to this day and to the end of time in the feet and in the clay. Barabas challenged the Romans as does trump and Putin today. They will fail becsuse we have the prophesy of Nebuchadnezzars statue. The next kingdom is that of Jesus's. So if we want relative peace, we had beter accept the Roman's authority because they ate doing the job ordained for them to do, namely to reinforce the clay and to keep the statue from tumbling. We must stop corroding the iron.
Where is the Word of God in all this pastor? Roosevelt, Mandela do you have a clue who they were and what they stood for? Unsubscribed.
I'm wondering if you listened to the entire message before you decided to unsubscribe. He quotes at least a dozen scriptures specifically from throughout the entire book of John with references to Paul, Peter, and the book of Revelation. Please listen through the entire message if you didn't before you make your conclusions.
Sadly you judged a God fearing pastor and clearly do not know what you are speaking about. Listen again...
@@discern3392 I haven't come across any EGW statement where she quoted any of the funding fathers of the USA. In contrary she made a very serious comment about Thomas Paine and his religious orientation. And let me remind you that Nelson Mandela had been persona non grata in US until Barack Obama became a president of America.
@@sharontanghal3360 I also wonder about how well you have been informed about Ted Roosevelt and Nelson Mandela and appropriateness of even mentioning their names in a sermon which is supposed to be based on the Bible.
@@888mladen I was simply answering your question when you asked where is the Word of God in the sermon. The whole message was about daring to be courageous enough to speak out against what is wrong even if it comes at a cost of division. This is pretty plain throughout scripture. Then using numerous examples from the book of John, the sermon illustrated how God leads us to situations where we have to stand up for what we believe in even when it goes against religious leaders or the majority who are teaching or doing wrong things. He used the example of the blind man Jesus healed (referring to John 9) having the boldness to speak truth even when it went against the Pharasees and religious leaders of the day. You can agree or disagree with the message but this was the whole point. It seems you're so focused on the 1 or 2 trees that you missed the big picture (the forest if you will) which was the whole heart of the message: speaking out against coercion and protecting the freedom of conscience.
Note how many times in this sermon he says "I want everyone listening to me......" we do not come to church to listen to a man, we come to hear a message from the Lord and this is not it!
I love Pastor Kelly... Your remarks are way off.
You are right, but… God uses man (you and me), in this case Pastor Ron to arrest our attention to something very important that we need to give special attention to. I do not think Pastor is taking credit for himself. Go bless you my brother as you continue to listen God’s word.
@@discern3392 some may drink the koolaid!
@@johnpeters6005 how do you know that he is being used by God and not Lucifur? When last have you checked the Beatitudes our baseline?
that's all you got out of this sermon? I pity you. may God have mercy on your soul. this sermon is jam packed with life changing principles that will equip a person to endure till the end; to stand up to the enemy of our souls in these end times we live in. you should pray to God to remove the spirit of criticism from you.
Amen and Amen! 🙏
