How to Become One Soul | The MarriageToday Podcast | Jimmy and Karen Evans

[@garyhawkins9733]

I just found your videos on KZbin for the first time in my life, and I can honestly say you are an absolute Godsend! It couldn't have come at a more crucial time in my life..... I've had suicidal thoughts, and just wanting to give up on my marriage and life, even though I have twin 4 year olds. 😢 My inlaws have and still continue to try and get my wife to leave me..... but you have given me enough hope in myself that I believed I could go get a job, I went and applied, and got hired for a job, and I went to my wife and told her I'm ready to forget myself and put her FIRST... all because of you being an instrument in God's hands....I hope some day I can meet you in person, and thank you personally! THANK YOU! AND GOD BLESS!

[@lionofjudah4114]

Bless you Gary. I hope your marriage is good now. Go to God and read the word and pray and sing praises to God always every day. It lifts you up even when things which are not good are happening. Don't allow family members to come in between u. That is a sin from them trying to do that. Ask God to take over u and totally surrender to him. Be in a good loving church one who will be bothered about u and your marriage . Just show love to your spouse every day. Watch the film called FIREPROOF. Brilliant movie by the Kendrick brothers who are Christians. They produce brilliant movies which are GODLY. Watch it. Please

Even though I am a believer in Christ Jesus, I have led a very selfish live in my marriage. Lately I had a strong conviction from the Holy Spirit to change my ways. My marriage was at the brink when I found your videos about a month a ago. I have been prayerfully watching them I repenting of my self-centeredness and how badly I have treated my wife. You're Godsent. Thank you for the incredible counsel through your teachings on marriage.

We just celebrated our 35yr anniversary. On the weekend of our anniversary my husband agreed to watch videos by Jimmy - I think they were called The Indestructible Marriage. I found the workbook online for free and went looking for the videos and found them here on YT. After getting my husband familiar with Jimmy (the two of them - my husband and Jimmy - were cut from the same cloth - I swear!) Well, hubby got to liking Jimmy and so agreed to the (what I called "COVID Stay at home retreat.) Before that day, I felt trapped and swimming against the tide. I was numb and felt alone - no help from God, so I thought - no love from my husband. The battle was intense and the last straw was about to break. Until that weekend. I played the first video and asked my husband to participate in writing down answers that were asked in the book. I thought the first video was going to be the last. My husband immediately declined to take part. He did not know how to write down the answers and was ready to quit. He got up from the table and walked away. I bowed my head and asked God "Now what?" I felt in my spirit "How important is it to write down things instead of just talking about it?" When my husband came back I asked him if just talking about the questions would help ... he immediately sat down and that weekend finished with us having a dinner in our family room (emptinesters) in front of the fireplace with my selection of love songs I found over time that meant something to us. We each wrote a love letter, gave a gift to each other and danced. It was romantic and healing. We shared from our hearts about alot of stuff that needed to be said. We cried many tears and held on to each other. My husband hasn't been the same and he said I was the one who changed. (Maybe so but I love our relationship now.) After 35 years of an all out warfare, we purposely do things for each other. Say things that need to be said. Go places with each other where the other is interested in going. I'm 60yrs old come Aug 23 - and this year I'm out on a motorcycle with my honey! God is good and Jimmy's teachings are awesome. Thanks again Jimmy. You are a blessing in bringing hope to those in need. Amelia, I pray God will restore!

Pastor Jimmy Evans, you said in your interview with "The Remnant Radio" Show, in June 14, 2020, that; ....."in first Thessalonians, the Apostle Paul is explaining to the Thessalonians what happens to people, when they Die, ....when Believers Die." You said; "and Paul said there, ..."I don't want you to be Ignorant brethren", about those that have "fallen asleep", he said of those who Die, that you Grieve Not, as those who have no hope. You said; ..."And Paul talks about the Fact that, when Jesus Returns, those who are "DEAD IN CHRIST, will RISE FIRST", and then, "We who are Alive and Remain", ....for there will Still be a Generation of people who never die , and I believe we are in that Generation, that many of us will never see death. ....."that Those who are Alive and REMAIN, Will be CAUGHT-UP" ...( but Jimmy you Forgot something Here ) as you "Left-Out" the words;...."We will be "CAUGHT-UP TOGETHER WITH THEM", .....( those "DEAD IN CHRIST", Who "WILL RISE FIRST" ) ......to meet the LORD in the Air and in the Clouds. ( which is part of the text of 1.Thess:4:17 ) and Not to Heaven, as FALSELY Propagated by you "PRE-TRIB GURU'S" !! Jimmy you are deliberately OMMITTING the FACT, that; "We that are Alive and REMAIN, will be CAUGHT-UP," ( Raptured ) "TOGETHER WITH THEM" ( These "DEAD IN CHRIST Who RISE FIRST" ) which clearly indicates that you are Consciously and Deliberately going about DECEIVING Christians about what the TRUTH of what the Scripture is Declaring !! Then Jimmy, you went on to say; ... "The RAPTURE is a Private Event that happens between JESUS and his CHURCH , ...( and you said; "Before the Tribulation, Before the Wrath of the Earth, in the Air", O.K. ? ) Jimmy, There is NO SUCH WORDING, or even SUGGESTION of Such wording in that Text, of 1.Thess.4:17, That the being "CAUGHT-UP", by the "WE that are Alive and REMAIN", that is said to happen, "TOGETHER with THEM", ( those DEAD IN CHRIST, Who "RISE FIRST" ) That this will happen BEFORE The TRIBULATION !! In Fact quite the Converse is True, as these "DEAD IN CHRIST who RISE FIRST", are "the Ones" that ARE PART OF the "FIRST RESURRECTION", Rev.20:4, which will include the "MARTYRS", who were "BEHEADED" for Not taking the MARK of the BEAST, and Refusing to Worship the BEAST !! All of which happens in the LATTER HALF of the Seven Year TRIBULATION. ( read; The Zionist "NEW WORLD ORDER" ) Of which "FIRST RESURRECTION", Rev.20:5 declares; Will Happen EXACTLY "One Thousand Years" BEFORE the "SECOND RESURRECTION", which is declared to happen, "When the Thousand Years are FINISHED" !!! ( meaning; At the VERY END of the MILLENNIUM !! ) So Jimmy, As Desi Arnaz used to say; ..."PLEASE SPLAIN THAT TO ME" , as it seems that you are Caught between a Rock, and a Hard place on your ESCHATOLOGY !!

[@albertlisty]

How do you reconcile Matthew 19:4-6 with Matthew 19:9? How could Jesus first tell us that we are one flesh and what God has brought together let no one separate, and then oddly interject that you can divorce for adultery? Especially when we know that God hates divorce, and Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 7 that the Lord says not to divorce and the only concession that Paul gives is if you married an unbeliever and they want to leave.

[@ellen9925]

Because of heartened hearts. It's almost like when your kids keep begging for something you have repeatedly told them was not the best. After a certain point, you allow them to do the forbidden because they are dead set on it. Consequences to follow will be the game changer, not your forbiddance

Men: Haven't you ever wondered, if women are so wonderful and marriage is so great, why is there an entire industry built around helping you survive it, salvage it, repair it, and maintain it? And in exchange for what? Approximately 40-50% of first marriages end in divorce. The divorce rate for second marriages is approximately 60-67%. Approximately 70% of divorces are filed by the wife. The stats for professing Christians isn't much different. Would you buy a car that guzzled gas and needed expensive repairs every other day? Would you eat a handful of Skittles if you knew 70% of them were poisonous, but you couldn't tell by looking at them? If you have to work that hard to maintain or have a tolerable relationship, romantic or otherwise, with any other human being, are you getting a fair and equatable return on your investment? Just food for thought 🤔.

Being very careful of every word, and being very nice while dating is called ACTING, not empathy. Acting nicer than you are, then you get married and stop pretending and become your real, selfish, personality. Jimmy was putting on a front, like most do, then his spouse learned who he REALLY was - before salvation and becoming a new creature, that is. All you single ladies keep that in mind. You’re never dating the real person, but an actor playing a role. Some have to pretend more than others, to cover up character flaws, but everyone does it to some extent. My wife’s best friend is a good example. She married a nice guy and IMMEDIATELY he became Dr. Jekyll - she discovered he was an angry alcoholic - but unlike many, she divorced him immediately the first time he hit her.

[@davidscheller6725]

Some Scriptures about hell by Jesus himself and how not to go there: In Luke 16:19-31 Jesus describes a rich man that lived lavishly and a poor beggar man named Lazarus. It came to pass that Lazarus died and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom. The rich man died, was buried, then went to hell. 23 And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in TORMENT, saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue, for I am tormented IN THIS FLAME. 25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that you in your lifetime received good things, and likewise Lazarus received evil things, but now he is comforted and you are tormented. 26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that they which would pass from hence to you can not, neither can they pass to us, and would come from thence. 27 Then he said, I pray you therefore father, that you would send him to my father’s house. 28 For I have 5 brothers that he may testify unto them, lest also come into this place of torment. 29 Abraham said unto him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them. 30 And he said, Nay father Abraham, but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. 31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.” LOCATION OF HELL: Jesus said in Matthew 12:40, ”For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly, so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the HEART OF THE EARTH.” Paul said in Ephesians 4:9, ”Now that he ascended, was it but that he also DESCENDED into the LOWER PARTS OF THE EARTH.” HELL IS A PLACE OF FIRE: Jesus said in Luke 16:24,”….Father Abraham have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue for I am TORMENTED IN THIS FLAME.” Jesus said in Matthew 13:42,”And shall cast them into a FURNACE OF FIRE, there shall be WAILING AND GNASHING OF TEETH.” Jesus said in Matthew 25:41,”Then shall he also say to them on the left hand, Depart from me, you cursed, INTO EVERLASTING FIRE, prepared for the devil and his angels.” Jesus said in Revelation 20:15,”And whosoever was not found written in the book of life, was CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.” HELL IS A PLACE OF TORMENT: Jesus said in Luke 16:23,”And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in TORMENT….” 24 …..for I am TORMENTED in this flame.” Jesus said in Revelation 14:11,”And the smoke of their TORMENT ascended up FOR EVER AND EVER, and they have no rest day or night….” Jesus said in Mark 9:45-46,”And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off, it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the FIRE THAT NEVER SHALL BE QUENCHED. 46 Where their WORM DIES NOT, and the fire is not quenched.” Note that it doesn’t say “THE Worm”, it says “THEIR WORM” dies not. Jesus said in Revelation 21:8,”But the fearful and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whore mongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns WITH FIRE AND BRIMSTONE, which is the second death.” Note that Brimstone is Sulfur and burns with a very strong odor of rotten eggs. The scriptures above prove when a person goes to hell they will constantly see hell, constantly smell hell, constantly feel the heat of hell, will constantly breath hell, will constantly hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth of others in hell, will constantly be aware of their own worms, they will have no rest day or night, there is no way out and it will continue for ever and ever, they can’t die because they are already dead. The following is how to not go there and it is a SIMPLE AND EASY thing to do: All of the book of Acts is what Jesus disciples said what we must to be SAVED - meaning not go to hell, which is repentance, water baptism in Jesus NAME, (Not the titles Father, Son, and Holy Ghost) and being baptized with the Holy Ghost. Jesus said in Mark 16:16,"He that believes and is BAPTIZED shall be SAVED, but he that believes not shall be damned." At about that same time He said in Matthew 28:19,"Go therefore and teach all nations BAPTIZING them in the name (SINGULAR name and not name's) OF the Father, and OF the Son, and OF the Holy Ghost." Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are titles and not names. Jesus disciples never used those words when they baptized anyone in water, nor did they use those words in one sentence regarding any other topic. Every time they said Jesus NAME at baptism which is Acts 2:38, Acts 8:14-18, Acts 8:38, Acts 9:18, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 16:15, Acts 16:33, Acts 18:7, Acts 18:8, Acts 19:3-5, and Acts 22:16. Jesus said in John 3:3-7,"Verily, verily I say unto you, Except a man BE BORN AGAIN, he can not see the kingdom of God. 5 Verily, verily I say unto, Except a man be born of water AND of the Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 7 Marvel not that I say unto you, YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN." Being born of water is being baptized in water which is for the REMISSION OF SINS - meaning the INITIAL remission of sins and not the confessing of sins later addressed in 1 John 1:9. Being born of the Spirit is being baptized with the Holy Ghost. What being baptized with the Holy Ghost means is addressed in Acts 2:3-4, (Pentecost), Acts 8:17, Acts 9:18, Acts 10:44-48, and Acts 19:3-5 - which is when the Spirit of Christ initially dwells in a person. Nowhere in Scripture does it say it happens any other way than that way. There is not one Scripture that says a person receives the Holy Ghost just because they are a believer. Paul said in Romans 8:9-11,”But you are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if so be that the spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, HE IS NONE OF HIS." Numbers 23:19, ”God is not a man that he should lie, neither the son of man, that he should repent, has he said and shall he not do it? And shall he not make it good?” Malachi 3:6,”For I am the Lord, I change not...” Hebrews 13:8,”Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” That means there is no reason to think that Jesus will make an exception and save someone that has not been baptized in water in Jesus NAME, and has not been baptized with the Holy Ghost. If you are convinced you need to get baptized in water in Jesus Name do a search and type in "United Pentecostal Church International", scroll down to just below the red box, type in your zip code, a screen will show a Church near you that will do that. Jesus said John 10:27, ”My Sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”

[@davidscheller6725]

Many people solely base their Salvation on what Jesus said in 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." But Jesus was not finished speaking yet. Later after He rose from the dead and just before He ascended into heaven He said in Mark 16:16,"He that believes and is BAPTIZED shall be Saved, but he that believes not shall be damned." At about that same time He said in Matthew 28:19,"Go therefore and teach all nations, BAPTIZING them in the name (SINGULAR name and not names) OF the Father, and OF the Son, and OF the Holy Ghost." Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are titles and not names. Jesus disciples never used those words when they baptized anyone in water, nor did they use those words in one sentence regarding any other topic. Every time Jesus disciples baptized anyone in water they invoked Jesus name at baptism which is Acts 2:38, Acts 8:14-18, Acts 8:38, Acts 9:18, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 16:15, Acts 16:33, Acts 18:7, Acts 18:8, Acts 19:3-5, and Acts 22:16 (Paul's baptism). Peter said in Acts 4:12,"Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we must be SAVED." Paul said in Colossians 3:17,"And whatsoever you do in word or deed, do ALL in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by HIM." Paul said in Colossians 2:8-10,"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwells ALL the fullness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And you are COMPLETE in him, which is the head of all principality and power." Also verse 12, "BURIED with him in BAPTISM, wherein also you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who has raised him from the dead." The book of Acts is the most important book in the New Testament because all of it is what Jesus and his disciples said what we must do to be Saved, which is what Jesus meant in John 3:3-7, "Verily, verily I say unto you, Except a man be born again, he can not enter into the kingdom of God. 5 Verily, verily I say unto you, Except a man be born of water AND the of Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of God. 7 Marvel not that I say unto you, YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN." Being born of water is being baptized in water in Jesus name - which is for the Remission of Sins (Acts 2:38). Being born of the Spirit is being baptized with the Holy Ghost - which is addressed in Acts 2:4 (Pentecost), Acts 8:17, Acts 9:18, Acts 10:44-48, and Acts 19:3-5. Nowhere in Scripture does it say it happens any other way than that way. There is not one Scripture that says a person receives the Holy Ghost just because they are a believer. Acts 19:2-5 is a good example. If you are convinced you need to get Baptized in water in Jesus Name, do a search, type in "United Pentecostal Church International", scroll down to just below the red box, type in your zip code, a screen will show a Church near you that will do that. Jesus said in John 10:27,"My Sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."

[@J.Anita24]

Melissa, if a person is not in Christ at the time of the divorce and or first marriage, they are in ignorance and can be forgiven once they have come to the knowledge of Biblical teaching. You can't condemn people for stuff they did not know about. Please read 1 Corinthians 7:8-9, 7:15. This comes before 7:39. Also God hates the unequally yoked. If you are not equally yoked, can it be of God? Many people marry in disobedience. These marriages are of the world and not of God. An example would be gay marriages. I'm just stating in whole that you cannot hold those who don't know or who a unequally yoke to the standards of righteousness when they were living unrighteous lives. If they came to Christ after, he will forgive them for their past. God bless you!

[@J.Anita24]

@@Onelove858 People want to condemn others for when they were ignorant. The Bible says if we don't know something how can we be judged according to our ignorance (Paraphrase). But once we hear and understand the word that is when we will be held accountable. My 1st Marriage was not God ordained neither was my husband's we married out of lust and fornication making babies out of wedlock. When we found God together we started living right and getting delivered now everyone around us can see our fruit. God is forgiving. It is when we know better but chose to do wrong when we are held to harsher punishment. If I get a divorce and I don't know God, Christ and I'm not filled with the Holy Spirit how can I know I'm wrong. Myself nor my ex-husband were in the word, filled with the Ruach nor did we know scripture. We divorced from a toxic relationship where both of us were unbelievers. I'm remarried and will not backtrack. Adultery ended that marriage and the same with my husband and his ex wife. "But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to than to burn." 1 Corinthians 7:9 John 1:5 "The light shineth in the darkness but the darkness comprehend it not " Titus 3:9 May the Lord bless you and your family

stop twisting the scriptures!

[@melissabordelon548]

im not sure he twisted the scripture? so i repent for saying it like that. Forgive me ... i just kept waiting to hear him speak about how we are not to marry another until unless our first is no longer living. ... two become one flesh. Mark 10. ....i have to answer to Jesus he is first and i follow him. i have a personal relationship with him and i want to obey him. im even trying to learn natural ways to heal rather than pharmacy meds. i have found that when we are lacking things it causes so many diseases and pain also toxins im working at getting them out. i keep Remembering how satan twisted in the garden and then when he went to Jesus in the wilderness. the snake twists things and leaves out part or changes it just a little bit. we all NEED to be like the Bereans and study daily everything we hear. small is the gate and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life and few find it. Matthew 7 and John 14.
