[@Motjeko]

May GOD continue to use you....Thanks for the message, We give Him the Glory

[@shanhun770]

All year, I've seen God moving and heard Him speaking to me...and I PROMISE ..Chan's messages are such a blessing..the affirmation of the ideas I've always had about God, even as a child..he so vividly manifests...sadly though, I somehow lost the very core of meaning of it all..GOD is INFINITE..so many things I take for granted...and it pains me...really grateful for this

[@MrWatsonComeHere]

Another great and compelling message by Francis straight from the Word of God.

[@PeaceFan1]

I have been SOOO Encouraged by Francis Chan's Sermons..JESUS is using him in a MIGHTY Way!!! THANK you So much for your BOLD Preaching of HIS WORD!!!

[@jprice417]

continued - so a human being, which we live in sin, versus a perfect angel who knew god face to face, and in the flesh we can't see god himself physically, and some of us still believe and live and love his word unconditionally is the proof of what god wants to prove love can still be possible to believe even without seeing, by pure faith itself, luke 4:4 But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’”

[@Forgiv3n777]

@tdhtv He did not create sin. Sin is just merely an absence of good.

[@Peacemakerblue]

THIS WAS absolutely LOVELY !!!!! I actually couldn't be bothered to watch this at first but i'm ...GLAD!!! i watch the whole of it, I actually have the fattest smile on my face we have amazing LORD !!!! btw what does rebulk mean?

[@whithagemann]

These are truely wonderful msges. i watched the luke warm one either 2 or 3 times. its great. do you have anymore of these msges that you can put up???

[@jrwilsonsr]

You can find lots of wonderful messages on his church's website Cornerstone Simi Valley, CA

[@Brucev7]

@tdhtv Darkness is the absence of Light. Sour is the absence of sweet. Cold is the absence of Heat.

[@tdhtv]

@Brucev7 No. Sour is just a different sensation than sweet and cold is just a change in thermal energy.

[@tdhtv]

Why would a loving father who is omniscient create sin? He allows many to be born to this earth with no hope of being saved. Men throughout history individually killed millions, according to the bible God sends millions to a fate worse than death.

[@flakoveli617]

@tdhtv The last thing i aim to do is jump into a convo that doesnt concern me but i just cant help it. You should get your hands on the Apocrypha (a set of about 14 books removed by the romans when the "christian/catholic" bible was created) and read 2 Esdras 4. I too did not understand God's ways and it helped me understand that i NEVER will. It is foolish to even think we are capable of such a thing. -i write this with nothing but love and pray that you concider my argument. GOD bless our soul

[@musicalfruit123]

uplifting!

[@drumrdude707]

I would have to disagree here. From scripture, we know that "the serpent" used to be a beautiful creation of God, but fell because of his own pride. That is how things work. We have been given the freedom to draw near to God or run away. Both have consequences. There can be no real love without a choice. That being said, without a choice of good or evil, there can be no such thing as a relationship with God, which is what He wants from us. I hope this helps....God bless

[@JesusRad20]

@Spideywoman23 SO TRUE!!!!

[@flakoveli617]

@tdhtv Albert Einstien only used 15% of his brain. Once again, GOD knows why he placed a limit on our ability to use our giving brain, even if we dont understand his purpose. The bible is true and it was never God's fault. He gave Adam & Eve free will to obey or disobey. Is God responsible for our wicked ways? or do we find escape in blaming him before taking responsibility for our own actions? Him, being our father, knows what is best, but lack of faith makes us rebellious children.

[@tdhtv]

@flakoveli617 You know that human brain size doesn't determine how smart an individual is right? First of all I would never want to be a god or like the Christian god, and second knowing what God knows would never make us remotely like him. If we had his knowledge it wouldn't mean we had his power. If the Bible were true it wasn't Adam/Eves fault It was God's for tempting man and allowing Satan to place the final straw.

[@tdhtv]

@zipperlry I was being sarcastic, I don't believe any of this ever happened. I'm not slow, I understand what this book talks about. And it wasn't an apple hahaha, I eat apples all the time. Read closely, God created Satan knowing the future events. All I'm saying is God knew what he was doing and because of him people with good hearts and poor influences will spend eternity in Hell, I wouldn't wish hell on anyone. And I refuse to believe in a God that does.

"The Bible may, indeed does, contain a warrant for trafficking in humans, for ethnic cleansing, for slavery, for bride-price, and for indiscriminate massacre, but we are not bound by any of it because it was put together by crude, uncultured human mammals." - Christopher Hitchens

oh k lame

[@connorkentway586]

you mad bro?

[@MessegerAwesome12]

well i tried talking about Christ with my jehovas witness neighbors , and well they were busy , idk if they were trying to reject me or they were actually busy , i just dont want them to go to Hell , which is horrible , plz pray for me so God can use me to reach them

[@flakoveli617]

@tdhtv on another note.. keep in mind the reward he has for those who seek him with faith and love is eternal life in the kingdom of heaven. if you owned a cup of pure wine, would you water it down and disrupt its quality to feed more? or would you keep its quality and only give it to drink to those few who earn it? he knows it is not easy living in a wicked world of temptation, but those who fight it and dont allow it to rule their lifes will be rewarded. a reward that unmeasurable.

[@nickrodriquez407]

You lost me at curvature lmao come on , smh

[@themanape]

what's wrong

[@tdhtv]

@zipperlry I know God doesn't lead us into sin, but he doesn't have to. According to the Bible after Adam and Eve it became human nature to sin (God knew this). You cant force someone to love you, its an emotion that has to be developed by the individual. Sin doesn't need to be present in order to love God, I'm sure Adam and Eve loved God before they fell into temptation. A God that sends most of mankind to a eternity of pain just to prove that love is better won is disgusting.

[@tdhtv]

@Forgiv3n777 Absence of good? So God is good right, and what you are saying is that by God being absent (even though thats not possible because He's supposed to be omniscient) Satan is able to create sin. Listen to me, God created everything and he was fully aware that by making Satan, Satan would by nature disobey God and damn mankind. How does this not make sense, God could have avoided all of this but CHOSE NOT TO.

[@tdhtv]

@SeraphsWitness God created EVERYTHING right? He knows things before they happen. So even if it were Satan that brought sin about it was God who created Satan. And its not like a man creating a gun to hunt and then another man uses it to kill humans. The man creating the gun doesn't know everything like God, so the gun creator isn't responsible. But God knows about things before they come into existence so He is responsible for it.

[@SeraphsWitness]

@tdhtv God created sin? What Bible are you reading?

[@Brucev7]

@zipperlry God creates life, and He sustains life. That is love. To wipe out a created being, is not love.

[@jprice417]

Response for angel187666 - your related a god you can't comprehend to a mistake on your own logical human mindest, god is all knowing, therefore he did not make a mistake, think of this way man, yes he created lucifer but he did not force or make lucifer "choose" to be evil or to try to overthrow god, lucifer made his own choice because of his pride, and he "perverted gods word," whats sad is that lucifer knew god face to face and so did a third of the angels and they denied him

[@tdhtv]

@flakoveli617 Thank you for the missing books, I've read Esdras 4 which you recommended. This still doesn't answer my question. So what's the point of the Bible if it doesn't explain everything? Why wouldn't God give us the knowledge to understand him completely? He would most certainly have the power to help us comprehend, and why isn't it this way? Maybe because men wrote this book.

[@jprice417]

Continued - god created man to experience to not know him face to face, to still have free will, but to have unconditional love, thats why in the bible humans are favored over angels, because we did not know him physically face to face as they did, therefore some of us still believe, and since god is love, our love drives him, that being said, he wants true love towards him, without knowing his power, he wanted to see if a race of being would love him without experience is physical glory

[@daniellepena7]

Romans 11:35-36 New International Version (NIV) 35 “Who has ever given to God, that God should repay them?”[a] 36 For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen.

[@Brucev7]

@tdhtv Not the issue. I wasn't speaking Chemically or in sensation.

[@generaly04]

my brothers stray from from arguements of irreverant babble for these lead to more ungodliness...

[@arkkenpo]

Brother...You are very encouraging to a whole lot of people. Keep up the good work.
