He explains the Bible with such simplicity, all can understand. A blessing to listen to Gods revelation to us.

Pastor Shawn God has used you as a true Enstein of the Holy Bible! My wife Geannie and I have learned so much from Authentic just as I was learning so much from when you were on "It Is Written!" God bless you and your family. You have inspired me to no end. God has used your ministry to bless others, and I share true man of God!❤️

[@lindaschipansky4429]

Yes happy Sabbath to everyone from mich

[@elizabethagard7930]

Jesus is coming soon, we need to be ready!!! I pray Gods blessings and Holy Spirit goes with you. He loves you with an everlasting love!!!

[@sanctuary70]

And THIS is what true pastors and watchmen are made of... I remember Pastor Shawn from his early days as the very young host of - It Is Written. His style and delivery of God's Word were,as now, fresh and edifying. I never missed an episode every Sunday morning. This presentation on" the Temptations of Jesus presented here in this small series, gave a new & fresh perspective on why I now I should love Jesus Christ all the more. It helps me understand a bit of why Paul quotes Isaiah , when he exclaims in 1Cor.2:9-"...Eye hath not seen,nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him." Happy Sabbath to you Pastor Shawn and yours and to one all who've been touched by this refreshing message. Oh that we would have many more Pastors like this.

Every story that touches on the cross is deeply interesting. I always hope to see a little clearer. Thanks for your narrative, Pastor.

[@SandraTiscia]

So very excellent. Thank you

[@MrSpiritchild]

I always found it interesting how Joshua and Caleb were the only two from Egypt that made it to the promised land, their names mean, the salvation of the lord, and faithful, telling me that as soon as I get down to just those two things, I get out of the wilderness.

[@truthbebold4009]

Thanks for sharing that! 🙌

[@forerunness]

Very clear and powerful message. Thank you Pastor 🙏

[@terilazaro5287]

This is one of the best studies. Thank you!! And, I do share your episodes frequently!!

[@MSB780]

Have you ever noticed how everything you study in a week, from Sabbath to Sabbath, goes hand in hand with each other? Excellent presentation, Shawn. You put a lot of study, thought, and listening to His still small voice (Holy Spirit of God) in this last one-what a wrap up❣️ As far as commenting on your lesson, I have nothing to add. Thank you 🙏🏼 it’s Sabbath here in Tennessee, right now❣️ Happy, Joyful, Peaceful & Safe Sabbath. Blessings in Christ. Amen. 💜🙏🏼♥️

Keeping it real Pastor Shawn showing us the real Bible - of it wasn’t for Jesus we’d all be doomed - sadly we fall for Satans little tricks & twists - Jesus get us out of here soon

[@CEBGRACE]

This is so revealing Bible teaching love the pastor and his way of teaching🙏💞

[@diannahauf5136]

I love Jesus so much!❤😊 Sabbath blessings! Thank you for in depth eye opening biblical explanations of Jesus ' temptations!

I wish Authentic was an hour long at the least! Please, Shawn, consider a longer show!

[@DeePaschall]

Excellent program...truly a blessing !!

[@michaelturo1024]

Thank you Pastor Shawn. I am so blessed by your ministry.

Happy Sabbath to all and Shawn again , {THANK YOU] for this beautiful message of truth to a dying world !!Powerful teachings from the word of God ...May God Bless your family and this ministry !!

[@wesleythomas666]

Happy Sabbath. You have put this over so beautifully. Thanks for sharing such spiritual wisdom. The bible is such an inspired book. God bless you. We can miss the themes . As you say read the whole bible.

[@sealedsoon]

It would be great if you were to do a few videos on the age old question of “what must one do to be saved” and “just how does one get to know Jesus?” And “what is the gospel and how does the gospel save?”

[@leemary4833]

Amazing, wonderful study. Rev 19, 22 angel says to worship God! First study of yours, bible clearer from this, but will have to redo, new Christians take longer.

[@christiedecker2724]

Says 470 views thus far. I do like the programs, I do share them with people and on social media...but as I lead an evening worship group every night, I cannot watch it live, but I do watch it after we finish our worship time. I have noticed since the summer break, however, that the program is interrupted by commercials. Not VOP promotions, but secular commercials. Yes, even this evening. Please, can you turn them off so we can watch this from Friday sundown until Saturday sundown (yes, the Sabbath) without the world encroaching in on worship time? Please? Thank you for listening and fixing this for us. Happy Sabbath Folk. God bless.

[@eugenelombard960]

I doubt whether Shawn has any control over these secular adverts. Don't allow them to put you off.😊

[@adrielisaacs9228]

That's just how KZbin works, that has nothing to do with Pastor Boonstra. Your best bet to get rid of ads altogether is to get KZbin Premium.

"Jesus wept"? Over Lazurus' failure/foilables? Lazurus didn't know how to make his consciousness small and evade the deadly pestilence.

[@jstube36]

I look at this story much differently than I did before. We see Satan offer something in return for some adoration. What's interesting is the one called Devil does not demand to be worshiped. He does not say worship me or else this or that. It is God who does demand worship and complete devotion. Questions is: Why does God have to demand worship?. For such devotion would not be genuine if it comes by command, or out of fear of consequences for refusing. Interesting contrast.

[@jholsapple2918]

It's unfortunate that folks cannot see the poetry and beautiful metaphorical machinery of Genesis (a story laid down before we possessed any sophisticated understanding of biology and evolution). The story of The Garden and Adam and Eve is an ancient telling of the ascent of man --- from his beginnings as a pre-tech creature with limited reasoning skills to an animal that stood on its hindlegs, looked at the horizon and upward at least as much as looking at the ground, and could reason sufficiently to use rocks and sticks as tools. The exit from Eden was the ascent from limited awareness and the stupor of irrationality. The Serpent's temptation of Eve was the spark of self-awareness and rationality that lifted Man from primitive existence. Genesis (very ironically so!) IS the story of evolution! This is really remarkable --- pre Darwin thinkers INTUITED in broad outline the story of Man's evolution and communicated that hypothesis in the available, non-scientific language (Genesis of The Bible). Sadly, the ascent of Man has been linked in this and subsequent Biblical accounts to Evil and Man's failing --- but not to the ascent (towards morality) itself. The negative spin on the concept of ascent has echoed through the ages --- and we're still in a state of confusion about it (thanks to the likes of Boonstra et al who profit from the confused state of the audience).

[@thehealinghiker]

Satan certainly had a very high ego if he thought he could get God to worship him. 🙄

[@tongakhan230]

Satan wanted human creation to give him what was morally entitled to God. Namely, Worship. Satan tried to derail Jesus' mission with enticements. Jesus' reply. (Matthew 4:10) Then Jesus said to him: “Go away, Satan! For it is written: ‘It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.’” Jesus was quoting Deuteronomy 6:13. Jesus as would other obedient creations of God, will only worship the Creator.

[@jholsapple2918]

I notice posts are curated. That's telling and sadly consistent with information control.

[@edhoran8916]

Why so many advertisements I can't get away from them Christian secular everybody advertise advertise advertise advertise we'll be right back. I just want to hear you that's why I too did you could advertise twice and that would Be fine

[@jholsapple2918]

Ah, at 18:50 he retreats from historical accuracy to the possibility that the Bible is a collection of fairy tales. Well, the string has been cut. We're in freefall now...

[@MrLesonfireforGod]

Interesting comments on child sacrifice an attempt to rid the earth of the Messiah. I liken abortion to be the modern equivalent of BAAL worship. The spiritual meaning is the same "give up you r future to get what you want to day". Also the idea of artificial paradise made me think of what I learned about Las Vegas a few years ago. The casinos aren't in the actual city but just outside in the county where the taxes are lower. And the name of the area is 'Paradise'.

[@mike666nz]

The old 'free will' trope used as a catch all excuse for the judaic gods obsession for worship and permitting of evil,suffering etc. Why even allow any of the old testament to occur, for a start, when a single thought from god would,and could, create heaven on Earth then, for ever.Noone need be destroyed by the 2nd death. Why allow all the drama? Hebraic mythology at its apex. I enjoy these shows all the same.Shawn is an excellent presenter/writer, as per his beliefs and remit. Btw there is no real evidence regarding sacrifice of humans to MOLOCH.Just writings

[@jholsapple2918]

Ironically, Satan's suggestion that Jesus (um, God --- ok weird, yeah) take a short cut by WORSHIPPING HIM (Satan) highlights precisely what is so deeply upsetting and wrong about all that Boonstra et al. are asking of the listener --- i.e., go with me, take the short cut of belief, don't fret with the hassle of determining right from wrong yourself or using your own reasoning skills to outline and life a moral life, worship God and all of that will not longer be required of you. It's straightforward to turn this entire story on its head and point out Christianity is asking YOU to do precisely what Satan asked of Jesus --- cast aside your troubling questions, embrace worship, and the world will be given back to you. Take the short cut, dispose of reasoning and evidence --- believe and you will be saved. It's right there --- on the page.

[@robertmueller2023]

The Yahwist (Genesis Chapter 1) was a woman? What is that based on? It seems very far-fetched in a macho ancient Hebrew society.

[@ClintonBrownell]

Sorry, but I see the word "planet" and a "globe" and graven images on a cross. No one knows what Jesus looks like. I do not see a Prophet nor a Biblical teacher. Enoch (Priest & Prophet)

[@jholsapple2918]

Why is the origin of evil such a mysterious thing or hard to determine if one accepts (as Christians do) that their God is the God of the Three O's? If God has created everything --- well, Evil is part of everything. Sorry folks, but you've cornered yourselves --- the origin of Evil is plainly God Himself. Period, end of story. QED. Yep: goobledeegook.

[@jholsapple2918]

Wait wait wait --- God, the creator of all things (which includes Satan, Evil, all that) has Satan (His creation, back to the three-O's) tempt HIMSELF (relying on Boonstra's mantra that Jesus IS God). This sounds like a bad screenplay with plot holes.

[@the-door-is-still-open]

You guys are getting pathetic with your paid commercials every 5 minutes. The vop ads are fine. The rest is pathetic

[@jholsapple2918]

So in short, God created an Angel dumb enough (and destined by divine design from the beginning) to try to be God (and knew what this errant Angel would seek). Terrible plot. The Hobbit makes infinitely more sense, seriously.

[@jholsapple2918]

Boonstra (as do other preachers) picks and chooses when to pull from the Bible figurative or metaphorical content --- and when to insist it's content is literal, dancing between the relationship of symbols across books and drawing upon literal historicity when necessary. More gobbledeegook.
