Lord Jesus, you know that of myself I can do nothing without you. Father please give me strength. These past three years have been difficult on me I am weak. Please give me strength. At times I feel so alone especially as a single mom. Since suffering a heart attack two years ago and my on going battle with lupus I’m overwhelmed and discouraged. I’m still struggling to support my children and myself. Being a single mom is challenging. Especially because both of my sons are autistic and now that I’m homeschooling them my hours to work are limited. But even as I struggle to pay rent and I struggle to buy groceries. I KEEP FAITH! Lord please protect me and my sons from homelessness. Amen.

Awesome conversation. There are many "New Agers" who have a conservative values. Also many libertarians are in the group, who don't believe in Biblical morality. You are right, it is a good idea to have discernment and the pastors have not taught their congregations very well, in fact they tend to ignore the culture. I have found, however, many are open to the gospel. Lastly, Rush actually became a Christian later in his life.

Like somthing was wrong with me and i was a goat in a room of spirit filled sheep. Im so glad i got away from that but my friends still go to those churches.

If you want to learn how to study the scripture so that you can scrutinize bible teaching/preaching for yourself then highly reccomend Dr. Micheal Heiser, his Naked Bible podcast (listen from the beginning though) and his courses on logos bible software as well as his website DRMSH. He is a scholar who had a heart to bring scholarly level biblical understanding to the people in the pews so that we don't just have to take the preachers word for it. The problem with western preaching is that the average person has become dependent on preachers for bublical teaching and preachers often aren't explaining how they arrive at their conclusions or applications. All preachers appeal to emotion in some way regardless of whether they are exegeting the scripture or not, when they haven't taken the time to teach people how to think and instead are just telling them what to think. This sort of preaching has been rampant in the west for decades and did not start with progressive Christianity.

These times cry out to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in America! "IN GOD WE TRUST" is falling away! Keep ready! JESUS CHRIST IS COMING! HE PROMISED. HE KEEPS HIS WORD. Maranatha! 1 Cor.16:22; John 14:1-3, 6; Titus 2:11-15. Wonderful praise here for God the Son. John 1:1, 3-4; 14,18*; Mt.16:13-20. THE ANGELS GIVE GLORY TO GOD IN HEAVEN! HERE WE HEAR AND SEE EARTH "ANGELS" DOING IT TOO! RIGHT HERE! JUST LIKE YOU! Subscribed. WE LOVE YOU, LORD! YOU GAVE ALL FOR US. YOUR SUFFERING WAS IMMENSE! WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY! YOU ARE OUR LIFE SAVIOR. YOU KEEP YOUR WORD IN THE BIBLE. THE GOOD NEWS "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.."John 14.6 . Blood coming from his body, NAKED, hanging on that cross like Roman torture weapon! What a Lord God and Savior! He had to. HE is God the Son. Only His sinless blood could pay our sins price.The Savior was born to die for our sins so we could live through Him. 1 John 1:8-10; 2:1-2 JESUS LIVES ! HE IS OUR HIGH PRIEST IN HEAVEN AT THE FATHER'S THRONE ABOVE AND KEEPS US IN THE FAITH BY PLEADING HIS SINLESS SHED BLOOD FOR OUR SINS 24/7 UNTIL WE ARE GLORIFIED AND SINLESS FOREVER! 1 John 1:5-10; 2:1-2; Hebrews 4:9-16; 5:1-10; 9:22 . THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER! "And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." Hebrews 9:22 Romans 5:8 " But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him." “For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21. Matthew 26: 28 "For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." ( life is in the blood. He had to pay with His life) * * * God knew you before the world was made! Ephesians 1:1-14. Prayer goes out for you and those here. A Crown in Heaven awaits all who share the Gospel of Jesus Christ that saves a soul. ( see"JESUS SAVES") 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20; Philippians 4:1. The Apostle Paul said in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek". This praise resounds throughout the earth: "Jesus Christ is Lord and God. Only He saves". He testified: ''I and my Father are One" John 10:30 (*see also 31-42). 2 Samuel chapter 22:verse 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name." JESUS SAVES God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world. Mark 16:15: "And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." How can we hear it? Scripture tells us. Romans 10:17 "Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (We receive the "word" in many ways. The "Word" is Jesus Christ!); John 1:1-5. God the Holy Spirit teaches through the Word of God in the Bible. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3: 23 " For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 "1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast." Jesus died and paid the penalty for our sins to rescue us from eternal death. He died on our behalf. We believe in Him, trusting His death and shedding of His blood as payment for ALL our sins and His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day! John 20:24-31; 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 above. WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH Romans 10: 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” TO DIE IS TO REJECT SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST AND BE SEPARATE FROM GOD FOREVERMORE Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We receive the baptism of God the Holy Spirit immediately which seals us in Christ and that is permanent! Ephesians 1:13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John 3:16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21:8.

1 pastor who preaches and shepherds the flock and has the responsibility of keeping the flock biblically sound Elders are spiritual leaders and guides within the church. May lead prayers and help pass out communion, will keep the pastor in line. May fill in for the pastor if there is not a back up pastor, there should only be one back up pastor, these churches with several "pastors" often have poor leadership and weak teaching theologically.

So bearing in mind that the early church had much fewer resources, what was it that kept them safe from error? It was the nuture and safety of the Body, that membership and association that was a pastoral as well as a communal source of Gods provision. The same truths exist today.

@stefaniepowell66006 ай бұрын
The deliverance ministry is so damaging. The Lord has brought me out of that deception. It totally messed up my view of the true gospel and made me question my salvation. :( It took so much digging into the word and prayer and asking God to show me the truth. He is faithful and has! I was under such deception and I will say that those who push the deliverance ministry come at people during their most vulnerable times. It’s abusive and truly heartbreaking

Hi, really sorry, a question please: I could not understand the term of what kind of a preacher took over the church where Michael was youth pastor? "His teaching was different to the John McArthur type preaching..." I also could not understand what is written on his cap, all I heard "is over x Jesus?" I am English and older, so when one important word is pronounced very fast I sadly don't get it. Would really appreciate it if someone could enlighten me. Many thanks!
@lindacowles756 Жыл бұрын
G'day, Telsamace! I will try to answer your questions as best as I can. To address your first question, the preacher was a Steven Furtick-style pastor, meaning he talks quite a lot about the perceived needs of the members of his congregation and how selected Bible verses apply to those needs. It's very focused on people, or man-centered, v. God-centered. These types of pastors commonly present a contemporary, youthful image in an attempt to attract younger people to the church. Secondly, the cap says, "Exegesis over eisegesis", meaning that one should preach and teach correct Biblical interpretations with, again, the emphasis on God, Who He is, and what He's done. Eisegesis is the insertion of oneself into the Biblical account or passage, for example, putting yourself in the place of David fighting Goliath, Goliath being the problems or challenges in your life. I hope that this helps.

My values are conservative but I feel uncomfortable in Conservative political spaces (I'm a black female btw). I too watch the Daily Wire but would often feel guilt that I didn't really agree with quite a lot of their stances. Though there are people there like Amala Ekpunobi, Candace Owens they frankly came across as mild white nationalists especially Owens who purports to be a Christian. But what really opened my eyes to the Conservative & 'true' Christian divide was the said Candace Owens interviewing the self confessed fornicator Andrew Tate & lauding him & finding nothing wrong with his lifestyle, instead praising him. But at the same time she has platformed women on Only Fans & criticised them for their way of making a living when they are in the same industry as Tate. We need to beware of a moralistic Christless Conservative line that lures us into a false sense of security. It's Jesus we must look to for our values as Christians not Conservatives.

Very good video. Something about church history though: Our general church history curriculum is completely western-centric. It does not cover Orthodox or Coptic church history - churches still in existence - nor does it cover church history east of the Euphrates, of which very little of the story still exists due to those churches phasing out between ancient Gospel preaching and modern religion takeovers. This gives us an inflated view of the Reformation, and the importance of the Reformation, and hurts us when we think about so many modern conversions to Christ that are completely removed from the context of the Catholic and Protestant churches. For instance, there are Muslim background believers and Hindu background believers and folks from animistic tribes who are today coming to Christ through means that are unrelated to the Reformation and Catholic church traditions and lines of Gospel transmission. It makes people hard to figure out what God is doing among them when our only framework is what has happened in Europe. There is a lot of value for westerners in seeing how church history and Christian history shaped our culture, but Christianity is much bigger than just western culture and what God is doing in cultures similar to ours. I think a more valuable history to look at as modern globally minded Christians is the history of Israel and what we read about in the Scriptures. We need to make better sense of the history and historical context that the Bible is telling us about, and not so much of western culture history since the book of Acts story left off. Also, looking at western Christianity, we get a lot of ideas from Christians around the Mediterranean who were from Gentile backgrounds and who grew up with pagan worldviews prior to their conversions, and this leads to a lot of deviations and distractions from the biblical story. In some ways, it is not much more helpful to listen to Augustine, for instance, than it would be to listen to a modern convert from Papua New Guinea who tried to make sense of the Bible without the Jewish background and without biblical studies about the ancient contexts of the Scriptures. People like Augustine did the best they could given their background knowledge and lens of interpretation, but they can't hold a candle to someone like the Apostle Paul or James who knew the Old Testament and lived in a Jewish mindset prior to conversion.

Topical Preaching - good discussion. I ran through my many years from agnosticism-to-spiritual-to-Christian...many different "versions" of Christian...eventually walking me into the Catholic Church. One thing I appreciate about the Catholic design of preaching...it is couched in an Overall Guide to preaching based on the fullness of the Biblical scriptures - OT and NT - as discussed by our priests in a 3-year schedule. In my earlier Protestant years, I witnessed the danger of giving so much power to pastors, allowing them to choose their focus of all preaching...thus...focusing on their favorite scriptures...and ignoring others.
@P-zz2pw3 ай бұрын
The ‘fullness of Biblical Scriptures’ tell you the priesthood (as in the OT) was finished at Calvary. Jesus cried out, ‘It is finished!’ on the Cross. There is no more ‘sacrifice.’ There is no more altar. An animal would be sacrificed on the altar for sin. Roms 12:1-2, we are all living sacrifices now. We are all priests and kings to God now offering spiritual sacrifices. Read Heb 7,8,9,10 and 1 Tim 1:1-4. The apostles were married. God enforces celibacy on no one. Some may be called to be celibate but that is NOT a Biblical requirement to serve ‘as a priest.’ Even OT priests were married. The ‘doctrine of Mary’ is NOT Biblical. The mass is NOT Biblical. The pope is not Biblical. The Church was not founded on Peter but on the Holy Spirit. Just because there may be lots of things wrong in ‘the Church’ does not mean that Roman Catholicism is ‘right.’ It isn’t. We’re to get to Christ - to God through Christ - Christ alone. Jesus said, ‘My sheep hear My voice, I know them, and they follow Me.’ Not a denomination, not a creed, nothing but Jesus. Christ will one day separate the sheep from the goats - that’s Christ’s view of His Church: His sheep who know the voice of the shepherd and who follow Him, and whom the Shepherd knows.

I have to comment on Christians and conservatism. The assertion that many Christians believe conservatism and Christianity are one and the same, almost interchangeable, is a straw man. I’ve heard this assertion on Alissa’s program before. I don’t know anyone who believes that or teaches that. Of course you can always find an obscure group of people who believe crazy things. But it’s not common. As a Christian who is also conservative my political beliefs come out of my biblical beliefs. And yes, I find myself disagreeing with secular conservatives. At times they are too liberal when it comes to social values.

I am a conservative. Have always been... even as a child, even surrounded by social democrats or center right family. But I am first and foremost a Christian. I grew up in a Catholic family and country, and early on I learned the pitfalls of calvinism and Lutheranism. Slowly I started moving away from the Catholic Church. I deeply abhor Wokeness. I deepky abhor "progressive Christians" (ie, false Christians). I understand thev rise of nationalistic Christians as a reaction to the violence and persecution by Wokeness and progressive Christians, but I don't recognise anything other than Jesus, the Bible as the true authority for following the Word of Jesus. No pastor, priest, "apostle" is more valuable, truthful than the the Bible and what Jesus taught us. Period.
