Thank you for your teaching that helps me to understand God's Word more.

[@DavidGuzikEnduringWord]

You're very welcome!

[@KyCandleCompany-oh8pz]

Thank you for being such a great teacher. I enjoy listening to you everyday. My dad was a pastor for 42 years and a great teacher as you are. I’m glad you don’t sugar coat the Bible as a lot of pastors do in these days. I am 70 years old and I am proud to be a born again Christian. I’m so thankful that Jesus accepted me. Keep on teaching and winning souls tonGod. May God bless you,

❤You like most people miss the Main Point of John 3:16 and fail to say and explain WHO HIM IS. HIM is not just some Jew Preacher who did miracles and died on a cross 2000 years ago...NO...HIM is the SON of GOD. The World is SAVED by GOD, by Doing His Will, and BELIEVING In HIM..the SON of GOD. We must BELIEVE in the SON of GOD, because if we Believe in Him, we BELIEVE in GOD. ❤ Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, But the one who Does the WILL Of My FATHER, who is in heaven John 6:40 MY FATHER’S WILL is that everyone who looks to the SON and BELIEVES in HIM shall have eternal life John 3:16 For GOD so Loved the World that HE Gave (Sacrificed to Die) HIS only SON so that Whoever BELIEVES in HIM, shall not perish, but have ever lasting Life How do I KNOW I'm going to heaven? Because I Have GOD'S WORD in John 3:16! Praise be Gracious GOD does not require us to also have Faith in His SON, but only that we BELIEVE in HIM, to be SAVED! 🙏

Regenerational baptism of water and saying the trinitarian baptismal formula , as elucidated in the great comission (aka holy spirit) is what being born again means.

In my Bible John 3:16-21 are not red letter, so not the word of Christ. Any thoughts about that?

[@martyderoussel8105]

Buy a “red letter Bible”. The words of Jesus will be in red.

[@robertjones4735]

If you really think about it the whole Bible is the words of Christ whether it is in red or not..God bless you my friend.

[@janeecejjf2001]

All Bibles aren’t red letter Bibles. If you get a red letter Bible, Jesus words will be in red.

[@davekanak]

You left out the red letter John 3:15 that is revised and repeated in John 3:16 (that whoever BELIEVES in HIM should not perish, but have eternal life.) 16 For GOD so loved the world, that HE gave his only begotten SON, (that whoever BELIEVES in HIM should not perish, but have eternal life.) I believe what is more important than who said them is that you Believe in Them and BELIEVE in HIM, the SON of GOD, that you should not perish, but have eternal life, and be SAVED!

[@ikawbameron5036]

Born again can only see the kingdom of God but cannot enter the kingdom of God. Being born again does not mean you can enter the kingdom or you are not saved by being born again. What we need is to be born of the Spirit. Acts 1(:1-5 Did you receive the holy spirit when you believe. We don't receive Jesus but the Holy Spirit.

[@lakilakisorong8204]

When you believe in Jesus, you ARE born again... Being born again means being born of the spirit... So i really don't understand what you are trying to say, seems you differentiate between born again and born of the spirit... To me, both are the same

[@janeecejjf2001]

What you described is what Jesus said in the scriptures this video is about. Jesus clearly said you had to be born of the Spirit to be born again.

[@cristineseno8385]

I think Jesus is the redemption of lucifer For God so love the world, and the world is satan or his IN the world, or people i' the world. Hmmm i just think

[@chrisbecker9906]

The book of Hebrews says that He, Jesus, did jot take upon Himself the nature of angels. He did not offer redemption for angels. There was never a hope for Lucifer to be redeemed. What Jesus DID do, is offer redemption to all (humanity) who have been impacted by the sin that entered into humanity as a result of submitting to Lucifer (aka Satan).

[@janeecejjf2001]

This is a perfect example of why we’re not to lean into our own understanding. There is no redemption for Lucifer or any of the fallen angels. The everlasting fire was created for the devil and his angels. Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Jesus is not an angel. He came in human form for the redemption of humans who will believe in Him and accept that gift of life. Jesus is the second Adam. 1 Corinthians 15:45-47 King James Version 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.

[@wingchun1963]

​@@janeecejjf2001 all of protestantism is based on leaning on their own understanding. And each comes up with a new angle how to interpret scripture and start a new independent church. And so the cycle of confusion grows. If your pastors read the same KJV and pray to the same spirit how is it there's so many conflicting denominations ?

[@janeecejjf2001]

@@wingchun1963 do they all read from the KJV? Anything I referenced came straight from the Bible. It’s the same no matter what version. There is absolutely nothing biblical saying Jesus is the redemption for satan.

[@wingchun1963]

@@janeecejjf2001 you quoted the KJV,lol. I never said Jesus is the atoning sacrifice for Satan. That was from the OP, not me .

[@mitchellc4]

Hello Nicodemus said we know you are a teacher who has come from God, nobody could do these miracles unless God were with him NOT “We know you are God in human form, nobody could do these miracles except if you are God” Jesus is the Messiah The Son of God The Son of David The Son of man The man God has chosen to be his anointed king The man God will judge the world through The man God raised from the dead Jesus will return and rule the nations with believers in the kingdom of God on the earth Jesus has a God There is no triune god in scripture Jesus said the Father is the only true God! John 17 3 And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. - Acts 3 13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him. 14 But ye denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted unto you, 15 and killed the Prince of life; whom God raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. Notice Jesus is NOT the God of Abraham 13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.

[@olumidevictor4471]

Consider this prophecy on the birth of Jesus; Isaiah 9:6- For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, MIGHTY GOD, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

[@mitchellc4]

@@olumidevictor4471 Hello Yes Yet nobody in the New Testament quotes that Yet the Jews did not expect/aren’t waiting for God to be born as a baby That prophecy is about a Davidic king A human being The name mentioned is a theophoric name It doesn’t make the person God Some even translate it as a theophoric name describe God “Wonderful in counsel is God the mighty, everlasting Father, ruler of peace” If you’re going to take it all literal then you’d have to say Jesus is the Father because it says everlasting Father Yet I know you don’t want to that It’s a theophoric name/title for a human Davidic King

[@mervin72]

@@mitchellc4 John 1:18 "No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, *who is himself God* and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known". This says Jesus is God. John 1:1 says "Word *was* God and Word was with God" and John 1:14 says "Word became flesh and dwelt among us". "Word was God" and "word was with God" mention there are more than 1 *Person* or *form" in one God. Word became flesh. That is not the father. It is the son and the first verse say Word was God. John 14:11 says "I am in the Father and the Father is in me". If A is inside B and B is inside A, A and B are one. There are many other verse which clearly proves Father, son and Holy spirit are different forms of One God (for those who want to believe). Jews did not believe before Jesus died on the cross and some of them even afterwards. When Jesus said He was the Son of the God, they said it was blasphemy. So what Nicodemus said make sense.. They only thought him as the prophet or teacher. That does not mean Jesus was not God.

[@SaintRamona]

John 17 3 And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. Response - Did you read verse 1 “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. Can a prophet say God glorify me so I can glorify you? Did you read verse 2 2 For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. Jesus gives eternal life 🤔 Verse 4 4 I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. Jesus was sent to do the will of the Father as his messenger on earth just like angel of the Lord that appears all over the Old Testament and claims to be Jehovah God? Verse 5 5 And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began. Jesus existed with the Father in glory before the World began? John already told you Jesus is Eternal Word that was with God before creation and he was sent into this world to be a light and a redeemer , Jesus acknowledges the Father as the One True God just as the Father acknowledges Jesus as the One True God ( Hebrews 1:8) Acts 3 13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him. 14 But ye denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted unto you, 15 and killed the Prince of life; whom God raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. Did you really quotes Acts 3:13-15 to prove your point

[@DavidGuzikEnduringWord]

Your heart of correction is well received, and while these distinctions are perhaps vital and crucial to your understanding and supposed critique, there seems to be a clear unity and agreement on the ideas that: the Gospel is true, Jesus Christ is the anointed Messiah, Son of God, who rightly and truly said: "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. *No one comes to the Father except through Me* ." In this we are surely agreed! God The Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are considered "the Trinity," a complex idea. Your distinctions are well-intended, but there is an obvious spiritual unity here that appears to be obscured by a focus on terminology, jargon and an abundance of caution, all of which are understandable and natural. Pastor David proudly preaches the Trinity - each Part equally God, and superpositionally (and functionally) both independent and interdependent. Christ was no "less" God, but *was* God _the Son_ - distinct from God the Father, but No Less divine! Thank you for your kindheartedness and support for this ministry. -Enduring Word Team
