According to a recent Netflix documentary, there are more forgeries of famous paintings hanging in museums than most people suspect. From time to time, these cases come to light. But what about faith in God? The easiest thing to do is to simply say that one is a believer. But where’s the proof? James addressed this, giving four telltale signs to help us spot the genuine from the fake.
HOW TO KNOW GOD
Curious about what it means to know Jesus? Knowing God doesn't mean trying to be a good person or even going to church. It means accepting the free gift of forgiveness and eternal life made possible by Jesus' death and resurrection. Learn more at connectwithski...

I lost my wife, I live alone in my house, I lost my job (Tobacco factory) but I didn't loose Jesús. I have a big pain in my heart when I look around but my peace is to know my treasure is in Heaven. Nobody came to help me from any church. I just hear "we will pray for you." and Is not enough. God knows. This message is so full of love. Thank you. God bless you. Le mando un abrazo fuerte y grande

[@marfialennox2642]

I’m so sorry for your obvious pain, my brother. My prayer is that God send someone into your life so you never have to be alone without human contact. I don’t necessarily mean romance, just someone you can depend on to be there.

[@santisalta]

@marfialennox2642 we have to resign to so many things in this life as Christians. We hold as much as we can, sometimes we flip, but we get up and continue. I don't want money, or a top model wife, or any other thing of this world. Is not about what we can make here only, is about spread the word of God without forget we are humans and commit mistakes, but Jesus saves us. There is a pain inside, but I can handle it. We try, He makes things possible

God Bless You I would Like To Meet You! Skip is awesome so are you!

[@marysnow3779]

Praying For you!!

Lo siento hermano. Sigue estudiando la palabra y no dejes de hacer la voluntad de nuestro DIos. Yo perdí a mi hijo hace unos anos y solo Cristo me ha podido hechar para alante y servirlo a EL. Bendiciones.

[@joshparkey2018]

I’ve always had a hard time with the book of James because it makes me feel like I’ll never be good enough to make it to heaven even though I’ve given my heart to Jesus.

Your message are filled with spirit pastor skip there is a special seat for you in heaven you are touching lives with God's words

[@chrisb6718]

Pastor Skip is indeed the real deal. The Holy Spirit has led myself and many others to this great teacher.

[@santisalta]

Excelente!!!! I'm watching and I think is so sweet to my heart. Sometimes I don't act like a Christian, but I have many actions about my faith in Christ. I am not perfect, I do what I can do. My will is to do good, but I can not do it all the time. God is mercy and I believe He test me, all the time. God bless you pastor, is an overwhelming preaching. Thank you

[@ctmybones]

Thank you Pastor Skip. You are such a blessing to all of us. May our merciful God continue to bless you with health so you can teach us for many more years.

I always believed in God as I was brought up that way. My dad was a pastor but ended leaving the ministry and to rub salt deep in those wounds he left our family high and dry when I was 12 my brother was 13 and my sister was only a toddler. it rocked our family to the core. My whole reality came crashing down around me. My dad turned his back on God and my ma who had been abandoned just like his kids had swayed a little considering what she'd been put through. My father caused the death of my brother, he's responsible for sending me down a wicked path of drugs and prisons. He responsible for so much destruction yet he doesn't seem to get what he done to us and refuses to take responsibility. What do you do with that. Well after a lot of heartache and phycological headshrinking I went through and the loss of my brother and family unit, is that God is the only SURE THING in my life. Its been a disaster of a life and i fear God is gonna berate me for not using the talents he gave me for good. He (Jesus) knows my heart even thought I'm a sinner we all are but he's been the only consistent thing in my life and I will never turn from him. I would give my life before I would turn my back on him even on penalty of death for not worshiping other false gods.

I love his teachings. So down to earth so kind. I was raised catholic so I was always a “good” person(haha) satans lie when I prayed the “prayer” I called myself a Christian ??? Only truly a few years before my husband died of cancer can I look back and now see God in His mercy didn’t let me die because I was a “good person/christain” BUT not a Christ follower. Yes works without faith is dead BUT so is faith without works!!!!! I found pastor on line d/t Covid and started to see from his and pastor Jack hibbs I was NOT saved I am so grateful for his teachings BUT because of pastor Skips “works” teaching Gods word the Lord in His mercy and their works of faith I am NOW a Christ follower

IMPORTANT QUESTION: Who will be the next leader of a megachurch to suffer a catastrophic fall? 🧐

[@billysamuels3586]
