@@kathypileggi7650 , Hey, good to hear from you. I'm doing well. I haven't been able to post on my YT channel for over a year. YT said I have to delete my channel contents before I can post another video. Not sure how many others have run into this issue. I knew this would happen though. Censorship of free speech is simply a branch of the bigger agenda being pushed by the psychopaths of this world. I hope you and your family are doing well, God bless.

Lord ship salvation is from the king of darkens

[@matman1451]

Amen! Yankee! I was saved at 6 years old . After a salvation message , I got up in the middle of the night and asked my dad how to be saved. I received the free gift of salvation because I knew I was a sinner and I believed Jesus paid for my sins in full. My parents saved and sacrificedI to enroll me in Tennessee Temple elementary school. In the 4th grade I lead a classmate named Tim to the Lord in a ditch playing, a few weeks later he was hit by a car and killed. It was the first funeral I ever attended. My father died the day before I turned 15 and my life was altered. I thought I was called to be a preacher but I wandered into the world and praise of the world became my pursuit. It was slow and I didn’t realize where I was headed. After college I went back to church and got re baptized and had strong desire to serve the Lord, but wandered back into sin pursuing women thinking it was love. After getting into divorce, I felt unusable to the Lord and went deeper into sin. Finally I hit rock bottom and came back to the Lord. I sought to find my fulfillment in Him and after a time met my wife and gave has given me 5 kids and now 5 grandsons. There is a lot more to my story but I shared it because if I had only know the truth I knew as a kid that was taught out of me that salvation is a free gift you don’t earn. You study to show yourself approved and to be used of God. God deals with his kids on the earth , you reap what you so but salvation is separate issue. My life really changed when I read the KJV bible for myself cover to cover and believed what it said . I gave up tv and media and most world entertainment to clean my mind with truth of a Gods Word . God changed my desires as He reprogrammed my mind. Your thoughts lead to emotions and actions. Godly thinking will lead to a Godly living but I was saved at 6 . I accepted the free gift that I could not ever be good enough or earn but a Jesus paid it all and al, to Him I owe. Amen ! God Bless!

you're either perfectly sinless or you're not.... either Jesus paid for all your sin or he didn't... your either saved by grace through faith apart from your performance or you're not... Nobody needs a licence to sin, we all do it without one unless you want to lie and claim you have perfect obedience but nobody will believe that... I do not advocate living in sin I JUST KEEP IT ALL THE WAY REAL when I say I don't obey God perfectly or even close for that matter and if you think your obeying better makes you more saved then me then your wrong... You may get less chastisement and more rewards sure but nobody is entering heaving by anything other than faith in the person and finished work of Jesus Christ alone...

[@miragutierres3958]

I am shocked at how many Christians there are who cannot see the simple truth in this.

[@juniormoore3023]

Me too, but for some Christians, it's harder to believe that we don't have to do anything for salvation. Everyone wants some kind of credit for it.

[@EmeraldLeafVids]

Years ago when I dwelt in confusion, it indeed was hard to understand because so many other pieces were missing for proper interpretation. Now, after the fact, in a sense it is hard to understand how people don't get it... only because the answers were, as it turned out, so simple. But if you don't know, ya don't know... when you're trained to see scripture one way, it's pretty easy to resist anything that sounds different. But don't give up on these folks; pray for them and continue to minister to them. there's folks out there that just might one day start being honest with themselves, or connect the dots, or get slapped with the perspective that could lead them to the truth. I estimate 98% of the "church" isn't teaching correct doctrine to one extent or another, so there's very few of us out there who hold the truth.

[@miragutierres3958]

@Felecia V Yes, it is very sad, because I think depending on works for salvation robs them of so much of the joy we have in know what an enormous thing it is that Christ did for us.

Only the prideful man would think it's too easy the low in heart don't see it that way but he says oh Lord thank you for saving me

[@doitlikethebereans1690]

Before I was miraculously pulled from the lordship salvation heresy, I thought the true gospel of Jesus Christ (simple faith) was too easy because I was afraid, not because I felt I was better than anyone else. I just desperately wanted to make sure I was saved, whatever the right way was. Lordship salvation caused me to develop OCD and OCPD which goes hand-in-hand with an overwhelming, life-controlling thing called Scrupulosity. I desperately wanted to know I was saved or have assurance of salvation but I had none as I grew up. In my upper teenage and college years, I defended a false gospel out of ignorance, not willful, hard-hearted rejection. I _knew_ I was a sinner and needed a Savior. I just didn't understand the clear gospel because no one taught it, and that's really sad because I know I'm not the only one who suffers from the damnable heresy of lordship salvation (which is works repackaged) at the hands of false teachers. I think millions suffer from it. It's heart-breaking. I'm so, _so_ incredibly thankful that my eyes were opened. The joy and peace I experienced were amazing, something I never experienced before. I _do_ think I was saved as a child at age 6 because all I knew to do was believe but, because of the heresies taught in the churches I attended throughout my life, I didn't grow in the Lord. When I kept hearing falsities, it would cause me to think, "But I believed! Isn't that enough??" Eventually it developed into a nightmare that controlled me for years. Sometimes I still have to remind myself that I belong to God through faith alone in Christ alone when I hear a false teacher spewing lies.

Leo Boyz When It was mentioned that God repented, it meant he decided not to do what he had previously planned to do.

Amen Yankee, It is either all grace, or it is all works. They can not mix. Romans 11:6, If you add one thing a person has to do to receive the free gift of salvation by grace, then it is a perverted gospel of works salvation and no sinner has ever worked his way to heaven. Lordship salvation is a counterfeit gospel of works salvation. Matthew 7:21--23. They have not done the will of His Father. John 6:40. So many are deceived. I can not imagine the Horror of these people when they come before the Lord and find their good works and keeping the law could not save them. Like you, I want people to receive the free gift and go to heaven. John 3:18 Believers are no longer condemned, but unbelievers are condemned already because they have not BELIEVED ON THE NAME OF THE SON OF GOD.

[@brucegolston6507]

This is a false dichotomy. You do have to do one thing to receive salvation by grace. You have to believe. It's not salvation by grace. It's salvation by grace through faith. Receiving something is itself an action. If I give you a sandwich as a free gift but you don't open your hand to receive it, it is no benefit to you.

[@jimkraft9445]

Amen to that. We receive the free gift by believing what Jesus said.. John 6:47 Verily, verily I say unto you, he that believeth on me, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE. Faith is not a work, It takes no effort to believe something is true. And we can not do anything to save us. Only believe to be saved. Acts 16:31. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the GIFT of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. If salvation was not a free gift, no one could be saved. Because a condemned man can not redeem himself. John 3:18 Believers are no longer condemned, unbelievers are condemned already, because they have not believed on the name of the Son of God. First John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that BELIEVE on the name of the Son of God, that ye may KNOW YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. Romans 11:6 it is all AMAZING GRACE, JESUS PAID IT ALL AND WE PAID 0. IT IS FREE, or not at all.

[@jimkraft9445]

No. Only those who believe are saved. John 3:16 John 6:47 John 5:24 John 6:37 John 6:40 John 6:29 John 10:28-29 John 3:36 John 1:12; But, it has to be Jesus alone plus nothing. Because it is only Jesus blood sacrifice that could pay the penalty for the sins of the whole world. First John 2:2 First Timothy 2:4 Who would have all men to be saved and come unto the knowledge of the truth. The gospel. First Corinthians 15:1-4

[@jimkraft9445]

If it was by obedience then Jesus died in vain. Galatians 2:21 I do not void the grace of God, for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. Faith, believe, trust, all mean the same thing. Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, (First Corinthians 15:1-4) in whom also AFTER ye believed ye were sealed by that Holy Spirit of promise. Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the Spirit of God in whom ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but BELIEVE on Him who justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness' Romans 4:6-8 He imputes his perfect righteousness to us, and will no more impute sin to our account. He paid our sin debt in full, and we can never be condemned again. John 3:18

[@jimkraft9445]

My car is red. I believe my car is red. I do not obey my car. Do you believe Colossians 2:13. Do you believe the gospel, First Corinthians 15:1-4. Do you believe Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the GIFT of God, is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Do you believe, Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through FAITH and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. Since salvation, eternal life, is a free gift, what do you have to do to receive a free GIFT? Galatians 2:21 I do not void the grace of God, for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. Romans 11:6 it is all grace, not works, if it was by works, it would no longer be grace, and if by grace, it is no more works. How you can get obey out of Believe is beyond me, They are not synonyms. They mean completely different things. Obey is a work. Believe is not a work. If salvation is a free gift, then why would you have to obey something to get the free gift. First John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that BELEIVE on the name of the Son of God, that ye may KNOW YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. If we had to obey to get eternal life, then we would not know we have it now. John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the children of God, even to them that believe on His name. You do not obey on His name.

Amen! What a great sermon message, sir. Indeed, you are a blessing, Mr. Yankee Arnold. And your messages are a help and blessing unto the Body of Christ! And I also enjoyed your teaching on 1 John 3:9. Where you showed how the New Birth cannot sin (1 John 3:9) since it is born of God and also born of the Holy Scripture (1 Peter 1:23). For God and the Holy Scripture Are perfect and completely without sin. They have no Sin, and no Darkness in them at all. Absolutely powerful! And how that it is the Old Man (First Birth) which sinneth, since it is of the devil (1 John 3:8).

Yes I trust Jesus Christ as my saviour . Thank you Lord 🧎🏻‍♂️

[@markhall6306]

Praise God we have been set free of the bondage of false teaching our sins our forgiven

[@ciphercipher8196]

I believe this: 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. I accept the gift of Jesus Christ dying on the cross for my sins. Whatever works I do, however small they are, are my attempt to please God, not to earn salvation. That I already have...

[@alancapone423]

I trust Christ as my savior!! God Bless!!

[@mynameisgladiator1933]

Another fantastic teaching right on the mark. Why must so many introduce works into the simple gospel of our salvation?

[@cardenashamlet]

To earn salvation by works is the scheme of the devil to confound believers. Saving faith is not simply being convinced that what God says is true. True salvation is the decision to trust what God accomplished for us, NOT a commitment to serve. It does not include a personal commitment. You don't dedicate your live to be saved -- but to serve God for rewards for your labor.

[@loverofabsolutetruthchrist7661]

Well preached Brother. Its the simple truth and so many are deceived by stupid pastors and prideful self righteous Sunday Christians that why its a narrow path and few be there upon. It will surprise a lot of so called saved Christians about just who are really saved or not.

[@wnctg]

When I look at the comments I see brother and sisters fighting over who's right and who's wrong. This is Jesus Christ gift to us, itsyas if some want one to be saved and not the other. Also all of us forget how unworthy we all are or when we came to Christ. The fighting and arguing over who knows the scripture better is complete PRIDE. Here we have a world decaying, and the body wants to fight over who has worked harder for their salvation or who has more bragging rights. God help us. Thank you Jesus for your free gift of salvation.

If you have to do anything to prove or keep it it's a reward and not a gift

[@kimberleerivera3334]

Yes! I trust JESUS CHRIST as my SAVIOUR!

[@timothyhodges705]

After reading Romans 6, Paul admonished the readers to not let sin reign in our mortal bodies...But in chapter 7, he summed up the battle of Spirit vs flesh, "How do we escape the body of this death? Praise be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord...." We face a war for our minds and our souls. But God still keeps us...Thank you dear Lord!

[@reneewashington8010]

I could listen to you all day everyday. They just dont understand that the Gospel is Gods Gospel and you dont change or twist or try to improve on it because they think someone will abuse Gods grace. A person will pay for how they responded to His amazing gift dont be fooled. But that is up to God and we dont alter the Gospel cause we cant control them. They also dont trust the Holy Spirit to do His job.

Therefore, brethren, be the more zealous to confirm your call and election, for if you do this you will never fall; so there will be richly provided for you an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. 2 Peter I:10-11

very good, 1st time here. Wont be the last

[@ronaldsimmons9517]

In order for God to save us, He had to do 2 things: Die, and while doing it, take the FULL (I mean the whole box and dice) wrath of the law upon Himself. That means both a physical and spiritual death. When we believe in our works, we act as if the Cross only worked to a level less than 100%, so God merely started the ball rolling and we pick up the rest of the load ourselves. This is where the heresy lies. We should limit sin to continue in fellowship, but we do not limit God when we continue in sin for God cannot be limited. He has done it all - 100% for those who believe He has done it. Hebrews 10:14.

[@davidbusciglio5529]

Am late to the party by 2 years, brother, but let me say, " well said ". Yes indeed. Jesus paid the " whole nine yards ". " IT IS finished " (John 19:30) -- " tetelestai ", ie, paid in FULL. The ransom price PAID. Once, for ALL and forever (Hebrews 10:10-14).

[@preachtheword1689]

Amen! It's easy to be saved. Believe on the Lord Jesus and thou shalt be saved.

How can you work for a free gift? WHY would you work for a free gift?

[@davewilson3897]

AMEN

[@ronaldsimmons9517]

The parable of the prodigal son comes to mind here. The Lordship salvation crowd believe that salvation should be based on fairness, when it is actually based on justice. Our sins need to be justly punished, and they were, on the cross. Remember at the end of the story the Father still pleads with the older son to come in. But, he won't, he believes it's not fair. He doesn't want to go in and celebrate with a "sinner."

[@jaybrick8973]

He believes its not fair because he cant see his sin within himself so many lordship salvationist believe they dont sin

[@Jeremy-sk2yi]

Now THAT IS good news!!!!!

[@promaster1351]

we have been trained since birth to always have tom work for what we have or we don't really get it or that anything we get free we don't appreciate it.....so after 40 yrs of working to sit and says heres salvation and you do nothing kinda goes against all we have been taught to have to get something....we are to much performance based....

[@FreeGraceNotes]

Thanks Yankee. I made some shorts from this sermon on my channel.

[@craigs4530]

It’s so sad other Pastors make salvation so hard and confusing thank Pastor Yankee

6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

[@chrisanok9283]

The most misunderstood verse on the Bible. Your interpretation of it is wrong

[@heels-villeshoerepairs8613]

...i accepted Jesus and then spent the next 30 years as a cursing filthy sexually perverse rock n roll drug addict. I got "saved" but no one told me i was lost! 10 years ago i came to the cross with a repentant heart understanding my condition and UNDERSTANDING what Christ did on the cross, then i became a child of God. A true heartfelt sorrow for the sins of my life, the sins that put Jesus on the cross, gave me the understanding for WHY he went to the cross. We MUST know Who He is and Why it cost Him SO much. Even JW's "believe". I have met many people that state a "belief" in Jesus, that walk away using His name as a curse word. Attitude toward Him and contrition are vital to motive.

God had to make salvation easy or nobody could ever be saved 🙏

Don't agree with all that Dr. Ralph said but still I can appreciate his message and sincerity!.

[@ipaporod]

@A sheepinwolvzcloz :As a non-Calvinist: I am a new born Christian (Pentecostal) and as such I deeply detest and hate Calvinism/TULIP heresy but I love Calvinists and pray for their conversion and for them to come to Christ for deliverence from Calvinism!. Obeying and been faithful to God are NOT works!. The Angels of God respect, obey God and are faithful because they love Jehovah God and not because they want to earn salvation , they don't need to because they ARE NOT lost sinners like us. Are the Angels of God doing WORKS by obeying and doing what God commands them to do to earn something back from God?.No, the Angels obey and do what God commands them to do because they LOVE God and because they aknowledge that God is their LORD and worthy of Praise, All Glory and Worship!. Sorry but obedience to God as a way to show respect/love because He is LORD and worthy of ALL GLORY ,PRAISE and WORSHIP and to do works to obtain God's approval (rightiousness) and salvation are two completely different things!. I obey what God (The Holy Spirit) has commanded in the Bible for the body of Christ to do (Paul, Peter, James and John epistles) not because I want God's approval, to be saved, or as gratitute for what He has done at the cross for me. I obey Jehovah God (same as God's Angels) out of respect, love and as to aknowledge that God is LORD and worthy of ALL GLORY, PRAISE and WORSHIP.We must love God with all our heart, mind and soul but TO LOVE GOD IS TO OBEY HIM
