[@brianmiller3325]

Thank you pastor Brett I grow closer to the lord with all the meat you feed me. May the lord bless you in all you do.

[@CDdogg303]

Thank you Pastor Bret and Athey Creek team for putting out all these videos for us to learn from Glory be to God!

[@dr.alaricshawncastleberry6789]

Pastor Brett, I don’t often comment on your forum, but I want you to know how much I appreciate your teachings. I go to a very good Bible believing church, but it is so good to listen to other believers preaching and teaching the Word of God with such a deep conviction. God bless you, your family, and your congregation.

[@AtheyCreek]

Hi, there! We’re glad to have you tuning in with us.

[@MitchKingTalksMoney]

Thank you Athey Creek for everything you do. Great teaching Brett.

[@KissedBliss]

I appreciate your commentary on "The Chosen". I feel blessed by the show simply because it's good clean entertainment. It's a television show. Having been studying The Bible for some time now, I never thought to replace the scripture for TV entertainment. Thanks Brett. Much Love 💕

[@laurierose1293]

I always love Brett's informative lessons and wonderful humor in delivering the message. God bless you Brett and all who wait for the Lord's return.

[@whirlo7675]

me too! It's relatable and appropriate

[@myoutube1327]

Please pray for my Daughter Lauren's safety. She is traveling alone from Oragon to Florida. Thank you 🙏

[@stevethompson2933]

I'm in Florida. I'll pray she makes it here safely. Perhaps she's already made it.

[@st8kout961]

I don't know the circumstances, but if she's driving it would have been a whole lot cheaper/faster to have flown, even before the recent $5/gallon Bidenflation. One of my friends wanted to visit me in Vegas, driving from Atlanta. I showed him that even driving straight through without a hotel stop, it will cost him almost twice the price of a round trip airline ticket. Plus he could be here in some 6-7 hours compared to driving for 48 hours. Then have to take that loooong boring drive back again.

[@new_comment]

Another of God's awesome fingerprints.

[@mattchambers5520]

Super cool ! I will be watching all of your teachings! Praise Jesus!

[@taytay88]

Thank you SO MUCH Pastor Brett for addressing the Chosen issue. So many Christians are fighting over it saying it is bad. I personally think it is great. It has probably brought more ppl to Jesus than most ppl who are bashing it. It is NOT teaching doctrine therefore, ppl need to lighten up. I'm brought to tears by the testimonies from ppl who have been changed by it. We should be fighting evil, not each other. If you are trying to find something bad about it hard enough, you will. That's with everything in life. If you are trying to "expose" the chosen, you need to rethink your motives and what you are spending valuable time with. God bless you Pastor Brett 🤍

[@colleensullivan972]

Pastor Brett does such a great job with explaining the Bible. I also love when he sings on the Wednesday night Bible study!

[@canceree]

yes, he does an excellent job teaching the Bible but his singing 👏, it's all of God filled but I love ❤ him anyway. 💙...hahahaha Thank you Pastor Brett.

[@rebeccawang5064]

Amen! Love when it's just simple heart felt worship ❤️

[@crdryshwn]

[@russellfraker2629]

God bless everyone who spreads the gospel, thanks pastor Brett and prayers for everyone in these troubling times

[@DK-ik6fr]

Amen Brother Humbly please yet these times are to EXCITE US & remind us that Our Blessed Hope JESUS is coming back for his bride so when we see the signs around us we are to repent get our lives right with the Lord and seek and save that which is lost. These times are causing many to seek WHY; WHO so many are coming to salvation in Iran Afghanistan India china Israel Saudi God is answering prayers Supreme Court Ruling Babies saved; The right to Pray Maintained EPA stopped from banning all fossil fuels Thank you amazing Father God Lord Jesus Christ I believe The Bible shows us that God is magnified his Glory shown best when hearts and minds are broken Those that patiently wait for Jesus Christ return get a special crown to give back to him at the wedding feast. brother have you named your horse yet if you look up to all God Lord Jesus is planing for us now 2000 yrs in his kingdom we should be praying for God to embolden us to witness so the fulness of the Gentiles comes in & so the eyes of the Jews will be open. Matthew 24 I hope my words were encouraging as that they were meant to be agape you cant wait to see you at the wedding feast maybe soon amen Shalom Baruch haba b'shem Adonai

[@carlton90602]

The chosen actually led me into worship and emotional praise!. Then a week or two later I saw criticisms and negative comments. Made me sad so I watched it all again... 😁 Praise Jesus! 🍞🍇❤

[@lorrainemarchesano3651]

Wow!!! That 7 numerology...just WOW! Love your teachings Pastor Brett

[@carlton90602]

Beautiful, God is awesome! Thank you.

[@sandiland0000]

THANK YOU i really enjoyed this teaching. and for discussing The Chosen. i have been wondering myself why they portrayed Matthew as so “quirky” i’m so thankful I can watch you online but I’m starting to get frustrated that my local churches do not seem to read through the Bible. it’s always different topics and not bad topics, it’s always good topics and they keep it biblical but I was wondering why its so difficult to I just find a church that reads through the Bible like you were doing or like JD Farag I can’t believe how hard that is to find.

[@debracroy7724]

Use what you're good at? Well God bless you Brett you certainly do. You're kinda intelligent😉 and you have the gift of gab. I love Jesus and I appreciate how you lay it all out. Blessings.

[@jferg0791271]

Hello there! Jesus will fulfill us on his time. If he sees feasible. Amen!!

[@tessag.1079]

"The Lord can use anyone, even those of us that have disorders and I am sure I have many" 😄 Me too!

[@gregorymark5493]

❤️ best wishes for your Bible study for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

[@chriscross2001]

Thank you for the beautiful lesson

[@kuchela]

Thank you for addressing 'The Chosen' thing.

[@RoyScoop]

I love the Old Testament, almost more than the new. Yet I love it all cause it is all GOD’S WORD! The Old Testament shows God’s mercy so much. How He spoke to His people over and over through His prophets and struggled, if God could struggle, to draw His people back to Him. He shows so much patience and mercy and love. Yet they continue to worship false gods. This continues in our world. So sad.

[@todd559]

This is awesome! Thank you!

[@lornabartlett2744]

Thank you for pastor Brent for the clarification and helping me understand, breaking down the story of Tamar. A lineage of Grace. Francine Rivers, Author, I am reading. A book about five stories of unlikely women who changed eternity.

[@edenalicerosebelovedchildo5958]

They are excellent books imo. I’ve read them twice.

[@joshc8092]

Wow! Really cool angle and message

[@Qwazier3]

Yacov Rambsel did a lot of counting letters and found Jeshua in the old testament. He wrote books on his findings.

[@thomasfridenberg1507]

I love the Lord Jesus Christ but my dad doesn't please pray for my dad.

[@sharonbarren5472]

Prayed 🙏🏾

[@jasonhenn7345]

The jehoiachin curse is even more amazing because Joseph was in the cursed line but was the LEGAL heir to the throne, and thru adoption Jesus thus could claim legal heirship without blood relation, and family blood genetic claim thru Mary, wow couldn't make that up if we tried

[@jvo3777]

Jesus Christ is coming back friends, all the signs are here! Repent today, choose heaven. Romans 10:9-10, you are loved!!!

[@giveregard2truth502]

Yay!!!

[@jferg0791271]

Cool friend you have Brett. 😆

[@WildDaisyYT]

While you need to be careful of setting doctrine of movies, they can also be a powerful tool for turning people's hearts to Christ. I became a born again Christian after watching Matthew: The Visual Bible, a word for word depiction of the gospel of Matthew. Jesus was played by Bruce Marchiano and it was the first time in my life that I had ever seen a movie where Christ was a "Man of Joy". Bruce was interviewed as to why he choose to play Jesus in such a different way and he said just like you did: People by the thousands would sit for days and be mesermized by what he was saying. He wasn't a "weirdo" who didn't blink and was sad and down. He was a Man of Joy. People followed him because they wanted a little bit of what he had. A model for all of us Christians. To be like Jesus would mean that people we pass in life gravitate to us because they want to understand why we are peaceful and full of Joy, even in the midst of trials, bad times and mean people.

[@jferg0791271]

Jesus was also let down by his followers. Because of his flesh full make up, he knew of the uncertainties of his makeup and human ways.

[@jferg0791271]

Unfortunately after all his invested time and energy put into the flesh, he was very aware of the upset that followed and still does. It's ok though for I believe that he'll still entrust in us and give us the deserved opportunity to know his intentions way back when that have been stricken and manipulated for whatever cost of gain. Thank goodness he chose the way he is. Amen!!

[@whirlo7675]

I love that!

[@peterconner-estrada3431]

Thank you Pastor Brett, does the scarlet thread relate to the scapegoat story. I believe it was related to one of the feast. Maybe You Kippur, and the thread became white if the peoples sins were forgiven.

[@imcrazybrumfield5621]

Look at chiasms, strophes, types and shadows.

[@someguy9519]

Where please?

[@imcrazybrumfield5621]

@@someguy9519 . When the pattern has a single central clause such as ABCB’A’. The effect of this pattern is to give prominence to the central statement, which can therefore be the main point of the passage, or at least considered as the pivot or turning point of the passage. Take for example an ABCB’A’ chiasm in John 4. A (23a) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: B (23b) for the Father seeketh such to worship him. C (24a) God is a Spirit: B’ (24b) and they that worship him A’ (24c) must worship him in spirit and in truth. 5. When this passage in John 4:23-24 is read the repetition is immediately apparent. You may already have these key phrases underlined because they are echoes of the words of Joshua when he came to Shechem. But if you had these marked in you might have wondered why the repetition is there because the logic is not so easy to follow. This is where we need to readjust our approach. The linear logic we are used to in our culture, where points are made in one direction leading to a conclusion at the end of the line, is not the logic of chiastic passages. The main point is at the centre - God is a Spirit, and from this follows why we should worship Him in spirit.

Sounds like Bible Code....have you read it?

The Tamar story was too long for Matthew. :(

[@jensorenson9145]

Hold up….did I hear him right he read Judah as Judas???

[@jayfrog5557]

Abraham was a Gentile racially. Abraham was considered the father of the Jews because he believed God therefore was blessed as the father of many nations Or all nations Spiritually Spiritually a Jew

[@someguy9519]

They were Hebrews...they got the name Jews from Judah

[@TheCruiseDog]

Brett continues to slander Andy Stanley's comment about "Unhitching the Old Testament." It is one phrase taken out of context from the third sermon of a three part series. I contacted Athey Creek Church to let them know that Bret was impugning this man's character without doing his research. I exchanged emails with one of the associate pastors who agreed to listen to the sermons to see what Andy actually said and what he meant by it. He came to the conclusion that Brett was in error and shouldn't be doing this. But, alas, the lie continues. How is it that Brett can preach that we need context in our understanding of scripture and not apply that to our understanding of each other comments? Brett needs to publicly apologize to Andy and retract his statement.

[@terrenceebert7212]

Sorry didn't like the chosen.an didn't recognize it to others

[@jferg0791271]

Haven't watched it even though I downloaded it.
