Amen.

Yesss!!!!

Most dangerous temptation??? What?? How about murder, adultery, Stealing??maybe you need refresh up on the 10 commandments!!

I would definitely push back and say that either idolatry, the 7 abominations from proverbs, or especially unbelief are the most dangerous temptations for any Christian. Unbelief being THE most dangerous one in my opinion, with idolatry being a close second.

@@treeisa61attention seeking is about pride and pride can lead to all other sins in one way or another.

consideron the same at this rate

I would say thank for you and Amen.

Me too. Man, it’s the most stress free that i have been

Are u boasting that you got off of Facebook? Lol😂 It's hard not to bc we do it subconsciously

Same. I deleted ALL social media accounts. I have my professional LinkedIn, and this Google/KZfaq account - that’s it.

I want to say this to you with as much love as I can, especially after this video, lol. Unfortunately, I think you got sucked in again. Laugh with me, I'm laughing at us both. Allen is talking about comments like yours, and mine. You said, "I got off social media", obviously you didn't, you're here leaving a comment, right? You said you got off because of the boasting. Yet, you're here boasting about getting off social media because of all the boasting these days. Which you said all stems from pride, lol. This is just my opinion, but, I think we all need to read what we have written before we press the "reply" button. I do, lol. See the pride in that "I do", lol? Allen, is spot on, lol. I agree with you! It's like the old folks in my day always said, "If you can't say something nice about something, or, someone, don't say anything at all". God's not done working on any of us. With all my love, Sandy - a woman of faith in Jesus Christ. I pray His mercy on us all, amen!!!! God loves His children!!! He's a good, good, teacher, amen!!! Lol, I'm asking myself, "Should I press reply? or not, lol? Obviously, I did! Be Blessed!!!

If your comment was meant to be sarcastic, forget what I said in my other comment, lol. Just be blessed, amen!!!

You are so correct that it is a very sad state. That is why we as Christians need to focus on GOD, and GOD alone. Believe in HIS, SON JESUS. Who gave HIS life for us. The perfect FATHER, who gave the perfect SON, the ones who have fallen. Now, is that not true love? GOD bless you all. Amen.

I quit most social media too (except Facebook and KZfaq) and it’s the best decision I have ever made.

Same here. Too easy to covet and not be grateful for what God has blessed me with. Was better for me to get rid of it all together.

Amen Amen 😤 🙏 that is a blessing you cover that in Sunday school 🏫 to the youth and older members

Even worse when you live in the rural where everybody knows your name more than Cheers. I lived 30.5 in a big city urban area and 17 years in rural. Not many know me around here, but I here about gossip spreading quicker than wildfire in rural. I even had a debate ( not an intense one ) where someone made mention of could never want to live in housing due to gossip. This person lives this area since birth except for a brief time in a different area, but always lived in the rural. My response was that it is a rural thing ( because even outside housing is gossip).

I'm so sorry that happened to you. 😔 That's super scary

God bless you! It's tough having stalkers pre-social media and now even more so.

I've been stalked also. I'm very careful on social media.

Me as well! Removed myself -I now am very very cautious:

Story of my life...

Please stop #7!

Reminds me of those chain letters people used to send. But at least they didn't drag Jesus into it.

Yes! I can't stand those!

AMEN

It’s not social media to those who are only commenting & not uploading content or gaining followers. In other words, simply posting an opinion isn’t “socializing”, therefore, I have ZERO social media.

I agree with you that yes, it is a social media platform. I do like some of the videos, and I do my church service on it every Sunday. For me is gospel music and worship sermons. Thate is the way I roll. May GOD bless you, sister.

@@bumblebee4024 I see your point. I am not arguing. Trying to evaluate what I see as social media. If you are participating socially on the platform, are you posting comments, and is this using/participating in, social media? Just some kind thoughts...

I believe, when @thebeatagp, talked about controlling ourselves as Christians, Allan also includes KZfaq and other platform comments.

@@ronaldross6950 thank you, God bless.

Absolutely brother.. Amen

Great verse

That sums it ALL up! 👏

When that verse permiates our brains, heart and spirit our everyday lives become so much smoother and God brings us to a place that we have daily events with others that bring glory to God !

Amen. Politics is, in my opinion, "toxifying" certain sects of Christianity. Christians have diverse views on earthly politics and while we do need to be aligned on the Word and what God absolutely expects from us, I just don't think earthly politics is so cut and dry that we should outright demonize and judge others (not to mention that we shouldn't judge anyway as there is only one true Judge). But I won't say more on that as I think the succinct nature should be enough and I pray other Christian leaders and creators follow this guidance in the future to avoid diving into such quagmires.

The politics is a very real concern. I'm British and the way I see my fellow American Christians react to politics is appalling and heartbreaking to watch. I see alot of fear that manifests into anger and aggression. On surface the idol is the republican party but if you look at the root of it, the real idol is White Dominance/Supremacy. I beg my brothers and sisters in Christ to take a real hard look their heart to see if racism is playing a role in your life and the way you vote.

​​​​@@monzorella1Bullshit. "White supremacy". You sound like a woke progressive "christian" .I don't think I have to ask what you're view on abortion and homosexuality is. Pretty sure it doesn't align with the Bible.

It’s horrid, toxic and uncalled for. I have many Christian “friends” who have attacked me because I don’t see eye to eye with them, or I change the subject when politics come to the table. Two people have even come to me at church and “set me straight” whispering because they don’t want anybody hearing the horrible things they’re saying. We Christians elect a man to become a president not a god. I wave God’s flag not a man’s, I wear my Christian swag, not a politician. Our command is to spread the gospel of Jesus, not the message of a politician.

The prophets were beaten, imprisoned, and killed for standing up to kings. You should say something and you should do good works but you do neither. Why? Because you are infested with idols.

That’s super kind of you Daniel!

Just out of curiosity: when you were a "lukewarm" Christian, were you following _Free Grace_ theology by chance?

@johndavolta3124 Oh no. TLDR, I knew exactly that my actions were sinful before God and every time I sinned I would cry out deep within my heart "I'm sorry, Lord." I would avoid prayers cuz I knew they were an abomination, given my sinful nature. Everytime I went to church, it was out of sheer reluctance. I would avoid any of Brother Allen's videos that talked about hell fire or videos where he called Christians to order. Meanwhile my wife was the only spiritual pillar of our household while me, her husband was out committing adultery and consuming vile and pornographic content. This all changed a few days after New Year day of 2024 when I had a dream encounter in which I woke up that morning completely saved, and filled with this uncommon zeal to study the Bible and go to church and do only the things that please God. I now find sin so hideous that I ask myself how come I was able to put up with it for so many years? I am glad to announce that I am completely transformed and the old me is gone (Paul wasn't playing when he said old things have passed away!) I have gladly picked up my mantle as the priest over my household and I rely on God COMPLETELY in everything I do. Hallelujah 🙌🙌🙌

@@lorddaniel20061 thanks for your answer brother! Praise the Lord!

Like my comment if you love Jesus.

Not just that but also the ones that ask you to show how much you care about something by copying and pasting their post with the tone that if you don't, maybe you don't really care? Some of it is really manipulative and does remind me quite a bit of those chain letters that use to go around back in the day.

@@tarafocht5470 Right!! I hate those and never forward them. They are ridiculous, and that is not how prayers get answered!!

Exactly! The posture of your heart as you post is a pretty good indicator of whether you should post or not.

Amen Amen that is the truth 🙏, you are correct

Please consider accepting Christ as your Lord and Savior. It totally transformed my life 3.5 years ago. God bless 🙏

🤦🏾

😂😂😂It's your honesty for me

You can say that again!

Your English is better than most!

In the Bible, fasting is with food and/or water. No social media is a sacrifice

@@HeartEllis Thanks.

The only good thing I find with social media these days is if we see edifying content that leads us closer to God. Sure there's stuff like hobbies and such, but it's how we are leading people to Christ

Also, all of the videos on KZfaq that have titles like "Pass on This Video if you Hate Jesus" or "God Says This is Your Final Warning!!!" Total clickbait!

Honestly, why are people bothered, I see these kind of post and simply don’t care. I keep moving. Didn’t realize so many Christians could be guilted or pressured to respond to a post.

Oh it's bad with both men and women. And when modesty is brought up, people get defensive, angry, and easily offended. You have to be very careful with certain believers because some grasp this with full understanding, yet others are still growing or lack the maturity to understand this. Grace is there thankfully, but some choose not to see how important modesty is

Wow, you comment is very interesting. Anger, I have to say that I have been there. But for me not anymore. For me there are three things that I do. One, know that GOD is always in control. Believe that with your heart. Two, listen to what HE has to say, that means being patience. Please forgive, I don't want you to think that I act like I know everything. I do not. I just know the HOLY SPIRIT sometimes guide. May GOD bless you.

I believe it

Me too everywhere I look on social media, it's always sex. And these people don't care.

@@JesusMyLordandSavior333 exactly! I did a TikTok video on homosexuality and it got taken down twice and I got a strike, but they’ll leave up the videos of twerking and all other sexual manners. It’s just so inappropriate.

@@Ronday30 fr it makes no sense. They hate Christianity so much but not what they doing to these kids

@@JesusMyLordandSavior333 it’s like, I know it’s expected, but danggggg lol.

Amen Amen 😤 🙏 🙌

Amen Amen 😤 🙏

Yeah that always rubs me the wrong way too.

If you have to tell people when and how to praise God, the Holy Spirit must not be present and active in your church because that's His job.

I can fall into that same trap at times. I typically am respectful with comments and replies, but I can be a little quick to snap back when I feel attacked by another commenter. It's something I need to work on.

Isaiah 45:3 speaks of a transference of riches from the heathen to the righteous... I will give you the treasures of darkness and the riches hidden in secret... I receive this for my household in Jesus' name. Amen!🙏🙏🙏

He said we shouldn't bother about what to wear or eat. He is more than enough, as he supplies my needs according to his riches in glory . I can't love him less

What a testimony!!!

I'm genuinely curious to know how you earn that much monthly

This has got to do with the digital market. How do you get that happen for you?

Says the person using You Tube lol. What do you think You Tube is?

Jesus was not afraid to "argue with the politicians (scribes/pharisees;saducees) in fact he went to the fathers house to confront head on. I say get on their case

Pharisees, Sadducees, and scribes were not politicians. Jesus’ discussion with them never involved politics. He mainly held the Pharisees responsible for adhering to the Law and their obligation to be unhypocritical in their teachings. The only time I can remember Jesus remotely having a political-like discussion is when he instructed people to pay their taxes. That was significant since Jews believed they were being unfairly targeted by Rome by way of an “oppressive” head tax law. Jesus didn't tell them to rebel or fight the government because they viewed the laws as unfair. He simply told them to pay the tax. Even, if some of those taxes were used to maintian or erect buildings dedicated to the worship of false gods in Rome. Pay the tax is Jesus told them. It's not up to you to determine what they do with the money. I’m holding you responsible for obeying the laws of the land is essentially what Jesus taught and so did Paul. *ROMANS 13:1-4* Don't RESIST. Obey the laws.

@@toreyhorton1789 woe to you sound familiar. No they werent al gore scribes were the equivalent back then. We're talking about the jews not rome

@@haroldsmyth6685 I've done the research so you will need to prove the statement that “scribes” were the “equivalent” of whatever you're suggesting. What's your source?

@@haroldsmyth6685 You will also need to indicate the verses where Jesus discussed human political affairs and appeared to support one view over the other.

You seem more interested in dividing people up into racial categories and engaging in one sided politics. As Christians are skin color isn't relevant, we are all children of God. It's also inaccurate to claim the Republican party is the problem, they are only a part of it. The Democrat party is just as much of a problem.

Just to clarify the Republican party is not founded on racism and white dominance. It was founded as anti slavery and it stands for and supports the rights we have under the constitution, it is also the party that protects the unborn and helpless. Please be careful in your post against false assumptions

@@laurieburnett9715 the republican party is unbelievably racist and have been for 100s of years. Plain and simple

@@laurieburnett9715 they "care" about the unborn, I believe that they actually use anti abortion rhetoric as a voting tool and nothing else. However once you are born they couldn't care less , the republican party consistently vote against helping children The Republican voted to keep child labour Republican voted to keep child marriage for children as young as 12 to be married to an adult. Republican voted to keep children hungry, then turn around and tell parent that they shouldn't have children they can't afford but are anti abortion and pass regulation to allow pharmaceutical companies to charge very high prices for contraception medicine. Republican vote against initiatives that have been proven to reduce abortions like Free prenatal care Free medical bills for child birth Free post natal care Free baby care packages These are things other countries do and have been doing for decades. So it is very contradictory to say that you care about the unborn yet works against them when they are born. Very strange 🤔

As a Christian, I can not in good conscience vote for either party.

I always wonder how the church in America influences the elections. A prospective president can be condemned and spread a thousand lies and yet millions of Christians cheer him on. For us Germans this is unimaginable.
