    Please guys...my cousin is on her death bed and to my knowledge she has not accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior...she has probably just days left..Im just desperately asking for prayer for her...for a miracle to happen and she accept the Lord before it's too late 😭💔 I just can't see a sweet person like her being banished to hell and it's tearing me apart 😭😭

      Psalm 147:3 ESV
      He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
      Romans 3:23-25 ESV
      for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, [24] and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, [25] whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins.

    Good sermon as always. Those who revel in their sins are not experiencing true joy in this life. They may have some amount of fleeting happiness from time to time but the majority report from those whose "god" is their own flesh is that they are miserable and unfulfilled human beings (Ps.73:1-17) They might have their best life now but when you consider the fact that life is but a vapor and how insignificant the temporary things of this life really are, you should have pity on them. For Christians, not only will there be eternal life and salvation from judgment, but even now there are hints at the joy we have as a result of being united to Christ. Let us be thankful for this gift and readily share it with the dying world.

      Exactly, it’s not that you’re saved by your works, it’s that you might as well be in heaven if you’re not working out your faith. Otherwise what is the point of you being on earth?

    • @konstantinmorgunov196
      @konstantinmorgunov196 4 месяца назад +4

      Totally agree. The pervasive error in most Christian/evangelical circles is that good works have no connection whatsoever with salvation. A person may pray the sinners prayer and profess to believe in Jesus but there may not be a life of good works to follow. They'll bring up passages like (Eph. 2:8-9) but neglect the very next verse (Eph. 2:10; For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for GOOD WORKS which God prepared beforehand that WE SHOULD WALK IN THEM.) and even claim that Paul and James contradict each other rather than compliment the same point that: genuine saving faith manifests itself in good works. C.H. Spurgeon who firmly held the reformed view of salvation said: "Good works are not the cause of salvation, they are the necessary fruit of it."(All Round Ministry p.310) or for those who admire John Calvin but seem to miss the fact that he held the same view on that subject: "Good works are the evidence of salvation, not the cause of it. If there are no works or change of life to follow salvation, then it should be questioned whether the person is truly saved."(The Institutes of Christian Religion p.798). The way I see it is what's the point of getting surgery (salvation) if you'll spend the rest of your life laying in bed by choice (no works). If it wasn't for the people who demonstrated true Christian compassion and kindness by helping me physically and financially, I probably would have still been out on the streets to this day. But God showed me the difference between true followers of Christ who demonstrate His love and compassion with works (by helping regardless of the situation) and those who only profess to be Christian but pass you by on a brand new car saying: "I don't have any money but Jesus loves you! Have a blessed day!" and fade away with the fumes of their car exhaust never to be seen again. I choose to demonstrate that same love and compassion that brought me to Christ because it yields more fruit (and Jesus Christ is worthy of a bigger chorus of praise). Have a blessed day.

But like anything to be learned ..a practice or profession or I can say repetition to be honest within ourselves and with Christ. Salvation is his gift to us and change must be done within us all.

So for that I truly thank you . @Pastor Voddie Baucham

    For 20 years, I thought I was actually saved because I said a prayer and I did some good work and I read the Bible a bunch of times. But I never really repented. I’m gonna fast-forward to 2009. Please keep in mind to explain something very serious. Since 1979 when I was about seven all the way I took 2009 I was suicidal. And I heard preacher say that all your sins are forgiven automatically and so forth. Which is true you are saved by grace through faith. But if you’re living like the world, do you never repented and you will fully live in sin. Most likely you’re not
    SAVED!! I can tell you this much, I had a lot of very serious attempts that the Lord saved me from. I never told anybody about what I was doing. And then I heard a sermon where this pastor actually said you can end your own life and you still will be saved. Not blaming him. But I can tell you when you’re on the brink of eternity and you start seeing the demons in the room that are waiting to take you to hell. Let me say that again so you can hear it. When you’re in the roomAnd realize that you are quickly passing away and you see the demons that are in the room and they’re waiting for you. They’re looking at you.
    They’re not blinking. They’re staring at you and they physically will stop you from trying to get out of the room.I woke up in the ICU. I was very determined. So I went back to my apartment and I tried again. I’ll skip to the important part. As I was in and out of consciousness, and I noticed they showed up again. The bigger of the three got in my face.
    If I can make the words that that demon said be printed in bold print as big as a building that would be an understatement. He said to me.
    “YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE THIS PLACE!!!! YOU WILL BE WITH US FOREVER!!!!!!!”
    If you think for a second that you’re gonna walk through the gates of heaven after taking your own life, then you are a fool. I don’t care what any pastor says. I don’t care what this dude is saying I don’t care what your mom says, what your dad says. You will not make it into heaven. Because it’s not the will of the Lord for you to end your own life. And you’re breaking a lot of the commandments all at once. And most likely if you truly are in dwelt with The Holy Spirit, you’ll have the fruit of The Holy Spirit!! That means you would never hurt yourself permanently like that. Also keep in mind a person who is truly reborn again would never even consider something like that. You’re guilty of a lot more sins than just one if you do something like that. Now this word that I’m leaving for you right now is for whoever needs it. Because times are about to get super tough and most of these preachers even Mr. Bachman is not going to, tell you that you’re in the tribulation. It’s about to get 1000% worse than you can comprehend. And I can tell you this much you need to get closer to Christ than you’ve ever been ever in your life. And if you’re a pastor and you’re reading this, you better be preaching about repentance. Because right now at 3:07 PM on 27 July 2024 you’ve been warned to preach about repentance. Keep that in mind! Everybody else repent and get stronger in your walk with Christ. Don’t worry about your 401(k) in your house and everything else. Just worry about your relationship with Christ and make it super strong, and start stockpiling food and water. If you haven’t start doing that. Because you’re gonna need it, especially if you live in Babylon USA because THE of WEATH of YAHWEH IS COMING!!!!! And yes, we really are in the tribulation. Just because your pastors don’t ever talk about it doesn’t mean it’s not happening.!

    One thing I don’t like about his preaching is that he speaks so much so fast that he twist things around and he can make a believer almost doubt their salvation, or make an unbeliever think they’re saved when they’re really not!!!
    Hey folks, there’s also verses in the Bible that talk about if you keep willfully sinning after you’ve come to Christ then you’re not saved. Take a look at Hebrews 10:26-30. Did you know also that Jesus Christ, the one who actually died for your sins. Jesus told you to repent about 40 times. In fact, if you don’t believe me, just look at Luke 13:3-5…. Why does he say you will likewise perish if you don’t repent? Do you think Jesus was just saying that so Luke would have something to write down? What about when Jesus said in Mark 1:15 to repent and believe the gospel. What about the six of the seven churches in the book of Revelation. He told each one of them to repent or their candlestick would be moved out of the way. What do you think that means? Yes we are saved by Grace through faith. We are saved by grace through faith. Jesus Christ did everything and we can’t do anything for our own salvation, but remember Jesus also said if you’d love me, you’ll obey my commandments. Just like Dude said in John 3:36 if you don’t believe or actually it’s written if you don’t obey, you will perish. So if you want eternal life with Christ, then you’re going to obey Christ. Not for salvation, but because you love him. Also keep in mind. Jesus said many will strive to enter in through the narrow gate and they will not be able to. Remember what he said in Matthew 7:21-23. Remember what he said throughout the chapter of Matthew seven and Luke 13.
    The evidence of that grace that you’re saved by will be evident and seen in your obedience to Christ and your daily repentance. Because you can’t walk in sinful living and expect to call yourself saved. It doesn’t mean you’re sinless. Because we all sin!! But there’s a difference between having an attitude problem with your wife because you had a hard day at work and stealing a bunch of stuff from your boss on purpose. There’s a difference between eating extra donuts when you know that’s gluttony and downloading porn so you could do whatever you want. There’s a difference between having sex with your secretary at work while your wife is at home, and being a little lazy and not reading as much in the Bible as you should that day. There’s a difference between having an argument with somebody and feeling bad about it and repenting about it and asking for forgiveness or having the argument with somebody grabbing them and throwing them into the machinery at work. Do you see how there’s a difference in all of those.
    Somebody can have an argument and still be a Christian. But when you sit there and you plan to do harm to your fellow brother or neighbor, which is everyone on the planet because you think it’s your right to be like John Rambo. And then you go to church on Sunday and put your hands up in the air and brag about how good you are because you know all the songs that they’re singing at church and you’re clapping and jumping around and everything else and you might even bring your Bible into church. But then later you sit there and look at your weapons collection wondering how many more pieces could you buy and they’re not used for targeting or hunting design for home protection and they’re designed for self protection and everything else. then you start crossing the line of where is loving thy neighbor in your actions. Jesus also said to do that too. Remember not everyone that says Lord Lord will enter into the kingdom of heaven. And when Jesus said those words he wasn’t talking about Muslims or Buddhists or atheists. He was talking about people who call themselves Christian. Just because you go to church doesn’t make a Christian. So you better make sure when you read through the Bible, especially John chapters 3, 14, 15. & 1 John 1-5 then examine yourself examine yourself to make sure you’re truly saved. Because for 20 years, I thought I was saved because I had wishy-washy preaching. And I live like the world. I almost ended up in eternity in hell because I listen to preachers without opening up the Bible. you better make sure you’re truly saved. It’ll be a crying shame when you’re standing in front of Jesus and He tells you I don’t know you.

      No. A sin, is a sin, is a sin, is a sin. There is NO difference in sin. Whether it be murder, or shoving someone in anger. They are equivalent. The difference is salvation. You can do one or the other, and repent, truly accept Jesus Christ into your heart, and turn AWAY from sin, and STILL be saved. It is those who live in, and for the world, that are not. You can lie, yet not be a liar. Like Voddie said, it's all abt what DEFINES your character as a Christian.
