I'm of Chinese heritage. I can testify what Dr Keller is saying. Was came to Christ love in 2016. It took me years to heal from the bondage ans chains that my mum put me to. Please turn to Christ for your salvation. Your parents will be moved by Jesus love when you surrender to Jesus and see the light in you. It is a difficult journey, your parents salvation is more important than your gear of being disowned by your parents. You are a child of God FIRST, son or daughter of your earthly parents second. In Jesus name.amen. 💗🙏✝️

[@schmetterling4477]

Jesus never talked to Chinese people. He has never even seen a Chinese person in his entire life. If he had, he might have freaked out. That's just who Jesus really was... ;-)

Amen….thanks for your encouraging words. We all need to share…His love

I hope Tim Keller is able to read this. I feel a great level of inspiration, especially from your uncovering series on the subjects of Meaning, Satisfaction, Freedom, Identity, and Hope. I’ve been meditating on what you say in these lectures so that these objections get deep into me. That way I have a deeper stance on what history shows. I can see you have put a great amount of thought into the things you say painting an obvious and practical picture toward the Truth, Jesus Christ. So I just wanted to let you know I’m deeply encouraged by it. To encourage you I’ve been in the ministry of healing for 2 years now. And have seen what seems to be most diseases cured in Jesus name. Blind eyes open, def ears hear, pain of the body in all spots, headaches, strength restored, fibromyalgia gone, and recently stage 4 cancer healed, and many things that have to do with mobility and flexibility, tension, and stiffness or strain. Feel free to reach out to me.

I love the last question that was asked " you say that God sees us as objects of beauty because of Jesus's sacrifice but how can you accept an identity based on someone else's act or identity?" This seems to be almost exactly the question George Herbert insistently asks in his "Dialogue" ... Man. SWEETEST Saviour, if my soul Were but worth the having, Quickly should I then control Any thought of waving. But when all my care and pains Cannot give the name of gains To Thy wretch so full of stains, What delight or hope remains? Saviour. What, child, is the balance thine, Thine the poise and measure? If I say, 'Thou shalt be Mine,' Finger not My treasure. What the gains in having thee Do amount to, only He Who for man was sold can see; That transferr'd th' accounts to Me. Man. But as I can see no merit Leading to this favour, So the way to fit me for it Is beyond my savour. As the reason, then, is Thine, So the way is none of mine; I disclaim the whole design; Sin disclaims and I resign. Saviour. That is all: if that I could Get without repining; And My clay, My creature, would Follow My resigning; That as I did freely part With My glory and desert, Left all joys to feel all smart- Man. Ah, no more! Thou break'st my heart!

29:10 Peter was so afraid he called down curses.. I know those who did the same. I can see why, I may forgive them but I agree, Fear is horrible thing. How can I be braver, bigger than Fear?

This is what I heard: Don't try to rest in the strength of your love for Him; rest in the strength of His Love for you. Did ya get it?

“In 5 billion years Jesus will still love me the same.” ??? Never mind the seeming odd desire for that, something tells me that most people would beg to be annihilated after just 5,000 years.

[@chukwukaosakwe3646]

You're assuming that it will be 5000 human earth years I guess.

[@zach2980]

@@chukwukaosakwe3646 sure. Although it’s an internal critique. I’m sure time can become something different in people’s perception in heaven. I don’t think we in any way survive our deaths.

Boy looking at these comments you can tell we’re at the end of the age where people have itching ears and are eager to listen to false teachers

What was false? Elaborate I'd like to know. I heard the opposite. Who's your authentic human preacher ( meaning not JC)?
