I've been wondering this for a while. A couple of my friends are so far into New Age practices and its so hard to speak to them. I got saved last year from my life of homosexuality AND New Age.......so it is possible lol. I love my friends so much that I fear they will be hurt for what I say. In the meantime I pray, because prayer is powerful. I pray God will strengthen my faith so that my fears are put aside when speaking to them. Edit: thought it was important to note- me leaving my homosexuality and New Age practices have nothing to do directly with salvation. They are steps I took for spiritual growth and discipleship AFTER being born again and repenting (“metanoia” Greek for ‘change of mind’) and are a byproduct of salvation. Remember, it is only By grace THROUGH faith that we are saved. The moment you trust in yourself for salvation through acts of obedience and works is the moment you walk the broad path. Don’t trust your self to be saved. Trust FULLY in Jesus Christ: our dwelling place, our shelter in the storm! Thank you all for your encouragement and God bless!!

Your testimony is beautiful! I think you should immerse yourself now on God's Word and His promises so that the words that you speak to your friends will come from these truths. The Holy Spirit would guide you here. Grow in faith and love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Hold on your testimony brother! Fight the good ifght of faith, God is faithful, put on the mind of Christ and not the carnal mind for it is enmity with God, grow in love, in compassion balanced with descretion, with wisdom, God wil lead you eventually, I myself am in that situation my family being a devout Catholic it goes deeply in the family but I know as God teaches us day by day slowly, His grace will humble their hearts and pave a way for His calling to salvation, pray always and ask! Persevere brother!

Ross Aho... Listen, "ex- Gay" is about as real as "ex- Hetro"; be yourself and drop the guilt others say you *MUST* have. Sexuality is a spectrum for all and you’re just denying who you are. Believe in yourself first before all else, you deserve better.

My 3 best friends all don't really believe in god, but I keep praying for them and sometimes tell them about god but not too much so that they will tell me they're no longer interested. I recently sent one of my friends a video about god but before I sent it to her I told her that watching the video is not by force,so if she has time and wants to watch it, she can do that. But in the end, God is the one who leads people to him.

What helped lead me to Christ was arriving at the conclusion that without God, nothing matters. God is the only factor that makes life worth living, and not just enduring, but really living for the better. With God, we have the hope of eternal life, rewards for faith, and being reunited with loved ones that have passed away. Without God, there is only death and vanity.

There's nothing greater than you that you're accountable to and that nothing created eveyrthing The Bible doesnt say you cant question, it actually says to test your faith. Examine the words and life of Jesus and those that seek the truth will find it. God knows the solar system because he created it He knows evolution is a lie. If nothing created everything then you're just an accident, there is no right and wrong, then how does your accidental mind have the ability to understand or question the God of the universe? All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. The wages of sin is death. Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the father except thru him.

Very similar to evangelism explosion plan or presentation. The four treasure chests are remembered by the fingers on your hand. Pointer finger points at people, sin. The biggest or longest finger is God. The ring finger, Jesus, the bride. The smallest finger, faith, faith like a mustard seed. The extra thumb in evangelism explosion is heaven, it points up when your hand is closed. It's a free gift that can't be earned or deserved. John mentioned starting with God's glory, evangelism explosion starts with the thumb. Great video and response. Soli Deo gloria.

You're describing a wonderful friendship like no other, not some do's and dont's man-made religion like catholicism. No need to get into an heated debate about why I need Jesus, be gentle and patient in the hope that God grants them repentance.

Religions are all man-made. Please put aside your religious dogma for a minute and answer the questions honestly. *Tell me please,* *-In what context it is moral to turn children into voluntarily working servants?* *-In what context it is moral to treat voluntarily working servants as property?* *-In what context it is moral to pass voluntarily working servants on to children as permanent inheritance?* *-In what context it is moral to treat voluntarily working servants so bad that relatives shouldn’t be treated that way?* *-If slavery was voluntary, then why it is restricted to only foreigners?* Leviticus 25:44-46 However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way. *Tell me please, in what context it is moral to beat voluntarily working servants with many blows?* Luke 12:47 The servant who knows the master's will and does not get ready or does not do what the master wants will be beaten with many blows. *Tell me please, in what context it is moral to beat voluntarily working servants as long as they don't die?* Exodus 21:20 “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, 21 but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property. *Tell me please, in what context it is moral to kill non-virgin brides?* Deuteronomy 22:20-21 If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the young woman’s virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done an outrageous thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father’s house. You must purge the evil from among you. *Tell me please, in what context it is moral to kill unruly children?* Deuteronomy 21:18-21 If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father or his mother, and when they chastise him, he will not even listen to them, then his father and mother shall seize him, and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gateway of his home town. And they shall say to the elders of his city, "This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey us, he is a glutton and a drunkard." Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death; so you shall remove the evil from your midst, and all Israel shall hear of it and fear. *Tell me please, in what context it is moral to slaughter infants?* 1 Samuel 15:3 3 Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.

@@AtamMardes @atam mardes wow, that's amazing, u know alot about scripture. Most Christians are oblivious to these. Some of them were even new to me. When I first came to Christ and became aware of these things, I was bothered by them so I searched for answers as you did. Alot of the verses you used were taken put of context. For instance, u broad up that masters were allowed to beat slaves as long as they don't die. That was not the case, a few verses later it said that if that is the case, the slave is permitted to leave the master if he wants and find a new one. They also weren't restricted to foreigners. There. In the passages around this verse explicitly state how to treat Israelite slaves. The com and to slaughter all the children and women of off the enemy kingdom was hyperbole. The author makes sure we know by stating later that God says not to intermarry with this every same people who were "wiped out". These are in the Bibleitself. I'm not lying to you I don't serve a God of lies and deception and immorality. Humble yourself and to let yourself see these things

I was just wondering about this yesterday because I was thinking about my salvation and when I 1st believed and gave my life to christ jesus as a 12 year old. For a young child I didn't completely understand what it truly entails then like I do now, which is probably part of why I backslide when I became a adult. Now as I recently came back to the lord I been coming to realization that not only do one need to believe on the lord jesus christ and pray a prayer and even repent which of course very seriously vital. But I believe one other important part that dont get emphasis well enough if at all by some who preach the gospel is that you must follow jesus christ and not live your life for yourself and do whatever you want to do anymore. I think that doesn't get more address to the degree ot needs to so people understand you can't just go on living like you once did and not surrender to God. That's a reason why alot of people who say they Christian are I think in danger of really not being or at the least very lukewarm or worldly. They think I believe in the lord jesus christ and what he did and I prayed to be saved and forgiven and I repented. But then they go about their lives still like they did before approached with the gospel because the presentation of them having to follow christ and not live for theirselves wasn't clear enough if at all. Me personally I can attest to that even though I was so young to comprehend but I wish I was told more that part because it is a very important and seriously significant choice to make to decide to give up your life and follow christ. And it cant be left out when one gets born again and saved and becomes a Christian.

Ulysses 'the U' Smith ... I agree. This is why new believers need to find a mentor...someone or some group to help them learn how to follow Christ. Personally, I grew at first by listening to pastors on the radio. Then a neighbor invited my wife to a Bible study. Then my wife wanted us to visit their church. God will lead you if you truly want to follow him.

I've been taking leaning on taking Mr Comforts approach. Just ask your Friend, what do you think happens when you die? This is usually a pretty interesting question to anybody and they'll answer it. I suppose this is the open intro into beginning the conversation. I HIGHLY suggest to pray for God to give you the words to speak. Not your words but HIS. That those words stick in the minds of your friends or relatives and penetrate the deepest parts of their souls. Remember, we are just sowing the seed and God takes it from there. Introduce Christ as Savior and Lord. If you hear a "your'e right" or "that's true" you know the conversation has been productive. Also, make sure to FOLLOW UP. Send them videos about who Christ is if you are a little more on the shy side. We want to direct people to joining the family through the LOVE for JESUS, not scaring them and threatening over going to Hell.

My conviction is that you have to get the person asking the question themself in a way that they are begging for the good news. I don't believe they will untill the reality of hell is on their mind and that they are concerned that they are going to hell. I believe in America the reality of hell is not emphasized enough. It is a checklist mentality that blinds so many into believing that they are saved. It is surprising how many do not realize that the bible consistently teaches us that no one is good-not even one. And that our good deeds will not stand before a holy God.

I was really looking forward to this video ever since it was announced on Friday, although admittedly it wasn't exactly what I thought it would be. Maybe I should ask if there is a video for how to lead people BACK to Christ? I have a friend that I really care about, we both came from religious Catholic homes & she seemed to love Christ. We stopped talking to each other when we became adults but recently she has reached out to me through Facebook. She told me she was no longer Catholic/Christian & she considered herself agnostic now (she said she kind of believes there is a higher power & agrees with a lot of the things Jesus taught but she doesn't really believe what the Bible says). I feel like God brought her back into my life so that I can help her come back to Him but it isn't easy. I'm not very good at socializing & she has told me that she doesn't like it when people "preach to her". I told her that God loves her (she has a harsh view about God, she thinks He sends people to Hell for being themselves) & she got really defensive, saying she is her own person with her own morals. I'm at a loss on what to do. Pastor John, do you have a video that can help me with leading former Christians back to Christ? And if anyone has any suggestions on what to do I'd appreciate it. I pray for her every day ever since I found out she doesn't believe anymore.

You meet Christ walking on water in the air. Meaning. Earth, meditation. Water, emotions. Air, through the red sea where you meet Yeshua by the path he paved how do you know? You will be baptized with the fire from heaven. The holy spirit. How it comes may be different for others but I feel it as a rain feeling on my head crown and spine and shoulders. Sometimes. My entire body. It's energy. A connection. With God. The source. Communication. Between higher and lower states of mind. You bring this back to life by using what you learned or experienced in that life. The second coming. Christ Consciousness. So that's true baptism. Which is hidden. From those that would abuse the power. Meaning. You can't do it. If you're coming from a negative place or wanting the wrong outcome. A good heart. That's the secret. Sacred heart. The pineal gland will fool you. The crown will deceive you. The heart will complete you. God doesn't want you climbing the mountain. He wants you to take care of where you are. The heart. Love. The connection. God loves us. Gnosis.

@tomislavmartic5129 3 жыл бұрын

Dear brothers and sisters i greet you in our Lord Jesus Christ Four years ago, I began to engage in faith. I started here in Croatia in the catholic church to visit mass and to read The Holy Scriptures. Very early on, I noticed that what is taught and practiced in the catholic church contradicts the Holy Scriptures and what Jesus taught us. In addition, some things in the Holy Bible were unclear to me and raised additional questions and doubts, such as: - If our God is the God of love and justice, why are we punished for the sins of Adam? Doesn't that contradict the principles of love and justice? An earthly father who is full of faults and weaknesses would not do such a thing, then how can we think such a thing about our Perfect Father? - How can a loving father throw his child forever in the hell? That also contradicts these principles. And besides, in 1 Timothy 2; 3 + 4: "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth." So, if this were really so, that in spite of His will, people will be brought forever to hell and not saved, this would mean that He can not enforce His will and thus He is not the omnipotent God, if we follow these doctrines believe. - Why does it say in some passages that Jesus is the Son of God, in others the Son of Man and in others that He and God are one? Although I kept going to the Catholic Mass, at home I no longer practiced the prayers of the catholic church, but started talking like a child to my Father (Matthew 6: 7 + 8 ). After a short while, I got the answer to everything. He guided me through a friend of my mother to the revelations of Bertha Dudde. Now I know that the Bible does not contradict itself. God can not contradict himself. The truth is not in the word, in the letter, but in the understanding, in the interpretation of it. Now I know that Jesus is God and our Father in heaven, and I understand all the processes and contexts, and through this I have come to know that He is the perfect Love and not the strict, punitive God. As he promised us in John 14; 21: "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. " 16; 12 + 13: "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. " 16; 25: "These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father. " In the revelations of Bertha Dudde, His promise was fulfilled, just as every other of His promises was and will be fulfilled, for He never quits (Titus 1: 2) because His word is truth (John 17; 17) and all that will happen is what He said has (Hebrews 10; 23, Ezekiel 12; 25:28, etc.) My loved brothers and sisters, I ask you not to blindly believe me, but as written in 1 Thessalonians chapter 5 verses 19-21: " Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. " Before you begin to look, go into prayer and ask our Father Jesus Christ for enlightenment to put you in your heart, whether that's really His word or not. Do not read with your mind or knowledge, but with your heart, for knowledge (knowledge, understanding) puffeth up, love (heart) edifieth (1 Corinthians 8: 1), for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life (2 Corinthians 3: 6). kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHeuY56da7amZq8 My dear brothers and sisters, the situation in Christianity is alarming, frightening and very sad and for that very reason the end is near, the time is up. Only in a very small part are the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5; 22) recognizable, and thus only a very few truly belong to Christ, for only those who enjoy the fruits and grow in them are of his (Romans 8: 9). "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…" Hosea 4; 6 I wish you a blessed day my beloved brothers and sisters, May the Love of our Lord Jesus Christ shine through your heart and lead you into the truth. I would urge you to listen to the other sermons of this seminar as well.

You cannot "turn people to God"... that is a heresy. Any (false) gospel that teaches MEN initiate the salvation process and God is then OBLIGATED to save that person is a lie from hell. ---------------- No... the Bible preaches we preach the Gospel to ALL MEN. But the "seed" only takes root in those God has chosen or elected before the foundation of the world, based ONLY on His Good Pleasure and NOT on any good or evil that person would do... ------------ If you preach that men can decide to chose God that is the heresy of the BROAD WAY that leads to destruction (read Gal 5:20-21 on heresy) If you preach that ALL MEN are destined to hell because of original sin but God choose or elected who He would saved before the world began based ONLY on His Good Pleasure (not on anything that person would do) that is the narrow way that leads to life (that's the True Gospel)

So I have kind of the same question why are you so bent on gospel music? Now I think I know the answer, hopefully it is because you worship the Lord while listening to gospel music. But don’t put so much on just gospel music. What you need to do is lead her to the Lord maybe she has never known the Lord. So first thing you need to know is that your a sinner. She needs to know she’s a liar, a thief, a adulterous, (Christ says if you look with lust you commuted adultery in your heart) fornicator. So it sounds rough but this gets us to understand we are not good. Romans 3:11 says no one is good no not one. So we need to see we are not good and if God judges us by are deeds we will get what we deserve and that is hell. Once you get her to realize she needs salvation then life is accessible. It sounds harsh but this is how Christ revealed to people they were in desperate need of a savior. And explain to her when Christ said it is finished he destroyed sin on that cross and “all who call on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13) she needs to know Christ before she loves the word or loves gospel music. You study your word with her. Pray God will lead you and illuminate to you what to say through scripture. Because remember faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God.

@Wise Virgin That's some pretty tedious looking work you've done on your website; I would submit it is total nonsense, but lots of work nonetheless. One observation I made when reading through your many comments and through the content on your page is that you have an incredibly inflated sense of self-importance. You, like Joseph Smith and many other false prophets, claim to have some new and special insight that is peculiar to you. Saints before you just didn't have the same wisdom, it would seem. Your method of communication is extremely narcissistic, overbearing, and condescending, referring to everyone as 'child' and starting most of your posts with a "no", as if you're God Himself and those you're engaging are your creation. These characteristics are also consistent with a paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis. Whatever your malfunction is, I can tell you that your KZbin comment engagement is not accomplishing the end you hope it is, unless that end is just to confuse, frustrate, and discourage people. You come off nothing like the Biblical Christ or one of his disciples, not in your communication style nor in content. I "DARED" to visit your religious conspiracy theory website, I gave it a chance, and I am not impressed; I've read theories by other paranoid and hyper-egotistic people about aliens and UFOs, and your special revelations were reminiscent of those. I sincerely hope you put the nonsense and dissension-spreading aside and seek Christ for salvation in humility and desperation.

Now let's tell you a story about a man named Jesus: A god assaulted, by proxy, inseminated a 'virgin' named Mary, in order to bring his son incarnate into our world. A cowardly action.... Mary and her fiance?, ....Joseph, had to travel to Bethlehem to register for the census. There Mary gave birth to a son of a god.? God put a star in the sky to guide people to the baby? In a dream God told Joseph to take his family to Egypt. Then this God stood by and watched as Herod killed thousands and thousands of babies in Israel in an attempt to kill Jesus. (wow!) As a man, God's son claimed that he was God incarnate: "I am the way, the truth and the life," he said. This man performed many 'miracles'. He healed lots of sick people. He turned water into wine. These miracles prove that he is God? Miracles?? But he was eventually given the death sentence and killed by crucifixion. His body was placed in a tomb. But three days later, the tomb was empty. And the man, alive once again but still with his wounds (so anyone who doubted could see them and touch them), appeared to many people in many places. Then he ascended into heaven and now sits at the right hand of his god the father almighty, never to be seen again. Today you can have a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus. You can pray to this man and he will answer your prayers. He will cure your diseases, rescue you from emergencies, help you make important business and family decisions, comfort you in times of worry and grief, etc. This man will also give you eternal life, and if you are good he has a place for you in heaven after you die. The reason we know all this is because, after the man died, four people named Matthew, Mark, Luke and John wrote accounts of the man's life. Their written attestations are proof of the veracity of this story. This is the story of a Jesus. "" Do you believe this story?

@@briendoyle4680 Hi Brien, People don't waste their time hating on other religions because they know in their spirit they're not true, but they hate Jesus Christ. Why? Because the coming of Jesus in the flesh revealed the truth of God to the world; He revealed our sin and that we will face judgement after death. Just as all criminals hate judges, all sinners hate the judge of Heaven and Earth: God. Jesus said, Whoever hates Me hates My Father as well. If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father. But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’- John 15:23-25 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. - John 3:20 But Jesus also came to reveal God's loving kindness and mercy toward us through His sacrifice. There is no greater love than this: that a man lays down his life for his friends. Jesus took our punishment, He paid the penalty for all of our sins with His own blood. We will not face judgement but will be granted forgiveness and eternal life, if we will only repent and believe that He is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead. I'm praying that you will one day soften your heart, Brien, and accept God's free gift of mercy and eternal life to you before it's too late. But if you reject His mercy and shake your fist at Him for the rest of your short time on Earth, it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. For man is destined to die once, and after that, to face judgement. God bless you, Brien.

You mix the works of sanctification/choosing with the calling/justification so that a person is left over whelmed with the question of "what if I dont do all those things right, am I still saved"? If you must, tell them this is the beginning of a walk with Christ, that's all they need to know at this point. To begin this walk you just believe/accept this gift of faith that Jesus is giving you to even receive Him as the remover of all your past sin, to make you righteous. Once this happens, rejoice because you have been justified/spirit reborn and are a child of God, cant loose it, cant work to prove it, didnt do anything to get it, you simply expressed what God has already done to you by His grace.
