I am so curious, what are his convictions toward the homosexual community. Does he embrace them?

[@karendemorest6766]

A timely message and testimony for me! I remember when God spoke that word of small beginnings to me 45 years ago and He still has a purpose for me at age 78! May God continue to greatly bless Pastor Johnson and Daystar Television with daily favor!

Chris I LOVE YOU. Thank you for all you do in helping people to understand what is happening. I know Jesus Christ s Return is coming any TIME now. It is all unfolding as written in the Bible right before our very EYES. Please pray for my children and grandchildren as I am unclear to what they really believe. As for myself I am crystal clear that Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior is coming for his sheep. What an amazing DAY it will be when I am finally able to lay my eyes on the PURE and HOLY SAVIOR. I KNOW I AM A SINNER. AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EVEN LOOK HIM IN THE EYES FOR I AM SO ASHAMED. He died on the cross for all mankind not even meeting us and he shed his blood in order we would be forgiven our sins past present and future. As his blood bathes away our sins. I don't know about ANYONE else bit I do know that NONE OF MY PEOPLE ON EARTH WOULD EVER DIE FOR ME OR MY SINS NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON. BUT YET JESUS DID SO OUT OF HIS PURE LOVE FOR US. AND EVEN FORGAVE THE ONES THAT NAILED HIM TO THE CROSS.. TOTALLY UNCONDITIONAL PURE LOVE. AMAZING !!!! PRAISE JESUS CHRIST MY LORD AND SAVIOR FOREVER AND EVER AMEN I LOVE YOU DEAR JESUS AMEN ❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I know the city from the twin women on HGTV

[@expo1706]

I feel that these young people though don’t quite have their spiritual heads on straight with all these punk rock hairstyles and colors in their hair and the way they dress what they do. Too much of anything goes in the American church. Next step is accepting sin I’m afraid.

[@betzaidadurkin2694]

Only God knows the heart of men. Let God be the judge! In the mean time, I will pray for this pastor, he has the energy, the courage, and the joy of the Lord!

It's those Coptic Christians in their cone hats that scare me!
