Is There Anything Special About You? - Tim Conway

[@illbehonest]

0:00 - Logo intros. 0:11 - Start of sermon, Matthew 5:43. 9:59 - If saved, Christ expects that you are unique and different. 11:17 - Love your neighbor, and hate your enemy? 17:26 - Think of the hatred of the Scribes and Pharisees towards Jesus. 20:33 - Last week we looked at the negative, but this week it is the positive; the what to do. 31:12 - Christians - is there something of your Father that shines through? 42:36 - Be honest - do you live godly enough to have enemies? 47:25 - What reward do you have?

Thank you for the timestamps. It´s especially helpful when you don´t have time for the whole sermon or want to return to a specific point

[@Sister_Teresa]

Wow… 🤩…. This sermon is great. Praise God for a man sticking strictly to His Word.

Oh praise GOD for sending me to this ministry and for the inspiration of the Holy Spirit that is convicting my heart to look into my own heart tonight. I have been asking GOD to show me what I need to do to Glorify Him and Serve Him because I am a Born again Christian woman 72, live alone have no transportation other than taxi or asking for an occasional ride. I have Love of the Father in me and weep for the lost. I spend my days in prayer and Scripture but want to get out in the world to share Christ and be a light in the world...not hidden at home. I have been praying for some fellowship with a Christian or two to pray with and fellowship with. Asking for Prayers for guidance and GOD to direct my steps and intercede for me to connect with a ministry or True Believers. I really just pray for GOD's Will and His plan and purpose for me to be manifested. GOD Bless everyone. All Glory to God. Amen

[@jorgeabatocab]

May God keep on blessing you sister, in Jesus' holy name I pray, Amen.

[@Eben_Haezer]

God please give this sister what she wanted. A real fellowship with Godly believers. In Jesus name Amen.

[@ThePattersonPod]

It’s good that you are desiring to have fellowship with other believers. It’s so helpful and encouraging for us to be in fellowship. Is there a local church where you live that you could get involved with? God’s design is for the church, the gathering of the believers, to be where we get that helpful fellowship with other believers.

One of my favorite ministers .. who preaches *Book Chapter Verse* 📖

[@Richie016]

Jesus rightfully taught his disciples to "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you."

[@darnellpistachio2991]

I am so happy you guys have allowed comments. I love this man so much. He doesnt know me, but he is like a dad to me in a way, even though he isnt much older than I am.

[@ethantanatsiwasesedza8305]

Lord God help us as your servants to be faithful enough to love our enemies, by praying for them and sharing the Gospel message with them, just as your Son, Our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ did model out for us, Amen 🙇🏿‍♂️✝️♥️

[@Eben_Haezer]

Thank you Pastor Tim.

[@lienlael3196]

There is nothing special about me, or about you either. But praise the Lord He is able to make us right by faith in Him

@Google Account 2 You're relying on your own effort to gain Heaven. That is a false gospel. It is not easier for either gender to enter. One just has to repent (have a change of mind about God and sin) and believe in Jesus Christ to be saved. There is only one mediator between man and God, the man Christ Jesus. Works based salvation is false. We were saved for good works, not by them.

[@D777-s8b]

@Google Account 2 I was addressing the overall error in what you said. If we could gain Heaven with our own efforts, then Christ died for nothing.

[@Daily_Disciple7]

Excellent message, straight to my heart

Thank you.

[@vico100]

Great!

[@kb27787]

Aye... regarding the prayer life. I certainly do pray for such people (homosexuals, etc. mentioned), but I'm afraid my prayers are only that God be vindicated--that whether in their salvation or destruction they be brought to lick the dust at His feet (their treatment of me is irrelevant really). I confess I certainly would not lose sleep if God decides to take them at their word and destroy them for their defiance; why should a child weep for his Father's enemies? If one reads all the prophets it will be clear that they had pretty much the same idea. It was Spurgeon who said "We are to love our enemies, but we are to hate God's enemies."

[@greeksalad4783]

There's absolutely nothing special about me.

[@greeksalad4783]

@Google Account 2 I'm a guy and heaven isn't contingent on gender. Was this a joke? I'm sometimes bad at understanding humor. 😳

Ps 139 14I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. 17How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them.

“If you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again. If you see the donkey of one who hates you lying under its burden, and you would refrain from helping it, you shall surely help him with it." (Exo 23:4-5) Our LORD was not teaching anything completely new; this command was already in Moses if one would care to look (which apparently the Pharisees did not).. Yet, I think the picture is not complete. There is a holy hatred that even our LORD Himself had for the people He was speaking to (i.e. His soul loathed them in Zech 11:8). I would believe we are to love (that is, be benevolent to, have no malice for, seek the conversion of) our enemies, and yet we are to hate (find no delight in, to not seek their company or any portion in their deeds) the ungodly at the same time. "And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to King Jehoshaphat, “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the LORD? Therefore the wrath of the LORD is upon you" (2 Chron 19:2). There is also sin in not hating those who hate God.

[@taccophobia]

What was even said at the very start regarding the translations.

[@narcisarupita888]

can someone put Romanian subtitles please?

[@Soulseekingtrips]

I do

[@albertjames804]

14:48 so when people day that God commands genocide to a lot of people in the old testament, we should not shy away from that, and say, "well..." no it happened, it God is perfectly justified to command it, the people who ask this question accusationally are always determined to misunderstand the scriptures or misconcieve it. We are to be completely fine with God commanding the Israelites to wipe out many nations for whatever will He purposed.

[@Soulseekingtrips]

Ppl say am hateful

[@Anonymous42316]

Why do they say that?

[@darnellpistachio2991]

@@Anonymous42316 probably because people are soft.

[@thejukeboxhero6387]

You say all those meaningful words but yet you're still a hypocrite Because you hate on me. The one who's being persecuted Because I'm hiding..
