Angela Mergist How are doing, with everything (cancer gone yet)?. I wish you complete recovery if it’s the Lord‘s will, claim it and accept it, now in Jesus’ name. Amen

XD. LOL. But praise God for that.

Is part of the heart shift admitting we love sin? Confession of even the worst things?

Please let us know if we could help your ministry in any way. Im sure many of us would be willing as long as we keep hearing the truth we cant hear from barely anywhere else

i know I am quite randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to stream newly released tv shows online ?

@Edward Rodney i dunno I watch on Flixportal. You can find it if you google:) -emilio

@Emilio Zahir thank you, I signed up and it seems to work =) I really appreciate it !!

@Edward Rodney Glad I could help :)

I can really relate with you. Praying

The Gospel is not about feeling.

@@joshuatheo1419 wow! True

@@joshuatheo1419 It says that they were pricked at the heart from Peter's sermon. Pricked in the greek meaning deeper than a surface wound like a sword in Christs side or by the nails in Christs hands. The word that is Jesus Christ is sharper than a two edged sword because it pierces deeper than the surface into the very spirit and soul of a man. They surely felt something brother whether that be mental anguish or pangs in there spiritual heart as the spirit was working already to change them.

Psalms 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Romans 3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. I will pray for you, but you should seek God through his scriptures and prayer as well. God bless you! Psalms 35:13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into mine own bosom. James 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

@@chrisleromans5845 thank you brother, grace be to you. Yesterday was the day. I watched the the Satans Attacks against Christian assurance video by pastor Tim. Everything he said I have experienced since I came to Christ a few months ago. And I felt my spirit fully comprehended that Jesus is the only way to life. Our obedience doesn’t save us (though it’s necessary). Repentance (as Paul washer says) is simply realizing your sin, and giving up trying to save myself. I fully realized yesterday, if Jesus can’t save me. Nothing can. And I had assurance yesterday for the first time in my life. I felt a peace for the first time in my life that I didn’t know was possible. Jesus saved me. The journey is long. Endurance is necessary. The one who endures to the end will be saved. Today I was reading 1 John. I got to 2:20 “But you have been anointed by the Holy One, and you all have knowledge.” And as I read that verse, I looked outside of my window, and saw a bright red cardinal looking at me. Cardinals have always been a sign to my family about God being present in our lives. I’ve had a cardinal show up a few other times during my walk with Jesus during important situations. Jesus is Lord and I’m so thankful for His atoning work on the cross. I know the journey is hard and long. But it’s worth it to be with Jesus in the end. God bless you, and praise our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

@@CowpokeCannoneer i'd urge you to not look for signs or go on feelings. but use the Bible. what does the Bible say as far as assurance? is it seeing cardinals, or is it something else? Also, you realize that Jesus is the Savior, but do you believe in Him? what is the Gospel?

I appeal to you to have your husband research his Augustine heritage with an open mind. I would not want to be in his awkward position of defending a theology founded single handedly by a man with prolonged indoctrination in three intensely pagan deterministic systems, who departed from centuries of orthodox teachings on free choice by appealing to "salvific" infant water baptism viewed from Stoic micromanaging determinism(that eternally damns newborns),who admitted he had departed from Christianity's centuries old free choice defense against pagans, rested his case on numerous Latin mistranslations (without knowing the Greek language), then followed Plotinus's defense appealing to the inscrutable counsel of the One (don.pers. 1/27,7;grat.et.lib.arb 41, 45, an.et or4.16 to explain the incomprehensible unreasonableness of his novel pagan-Christian syncrestic theology- Stoic/Neoplatonic/Manichean/Christian. In addition current Calvinistic interpretations of "deterministic" scripture passages are pagan interpretations brought into Christianity through Augustine. I invite him to you to consider the pre-Augustinian and Augustine's earlier, more firmly founded and universal perspective of a salvific free choice response, graciously offered by Christianity's sovereign God of grace. By the way this preacher here is a neo Calvinist he is not dividing the word of God properly. Two sites for the both of you Truthfellowshive.com start in the first sermon in Galatians and www.fathalone.com. I was a follower of Rome for 42 years so never cease praying for your husband.

Hi, what may help is pointing out Galatians or Romans, It’s not totally the same but you can switch the Jews for Catholic, as Catholics seem to feel they can ‘earn’ their way. The ‘Name above all Names’ from Philippians 2:9-11 will be proof that Jesus is above Mary, who gets way too much importance in Catholicism.

So is love

It's a command

Consider this... it sounds as if you are looking to "come to my senses" as some qualification you must meet in order to be qualified to be saved. Many people will think, "I need more grief!" And they try to get more grief as if more grief will make them savable... that is nothing other than a subtle works-based salvation. You come to your senses by coming to your senses and realizing you don't need to come to your senses more... you need to come to CHRIST... who will give you true sense and understanding. Jesus does not call you to prepare yourself more... but to come just as you are and to trust in Him... not to trust in yourself.

Short answer: you can't! You might as well ask a blind man to give himself sight. Jesus is exalted to give repentance as well as remission--you need to seek Him immediately and not wait to make yourself worthy enough to do so (understand then that God gives salvation purely sovereignly, and the best, deepest most sorrowful repentance in the holiest man is in itself incapable of making God one iota more inclined to give it! If you expect to bring repentance to God in exchange for His grace, then as the Canticles, say, it would be utterly despised).

@@illbehonest WOW, when I first read this, it didn't really register. Upon rereading it a month later, it makes more sense. Thank you 😊!

@@illbehonest while i'm seeking Him and I come to Christ as I am, what do I have to do when I sin?

@@miabern8346 confess your sin to Him and He is faithful and just to forgive you. Realise that when you are saved, God gives you the Holy Spirit to help you in your walk. By His power you are to put to death the sin in your life because of the grace He has given you. God will sanctify you.

I don't think they are completely synonymous. Repentance is coming to the realization that the garbage you've been dumping on your property is poisoning the ground water you drink from your well. Your entire attitude toward the handling of that garbage changes. To reconsider means to reexamine, that is what is done BEFORE repenting. You reconsider your position to see if it's correct, then make a CHANGE in thinking.

Exactlyyyyy

Believe and trust God

Brother/Sister, Believe on the Lord Jesus for your salvation instead of your own dead works trying to earn your favor with God. It's so simple but our minds as humans can confuse it and make it more complicated than it is intended.

Amen!!

What would be an example of the work you are speaking of? For example: if I find there is purity in my life that was not there before--what is the cause of that? Is it something I've achieved in my own power and effort? Or have my eyes been on Christ and a biproduct of that is that I am finding power in Christ?

@Reach Honduras yes he does, that's called railing and a straw man.

@Reach Honduras I've listened to pastor Anderson hundreds of times and have heard him preach repentance many many times. What he preaches against is the idea that you can be saved by works. That's all it comes down to, and Tim Conman is a great example of a false prophet who will stand before God guilty of all because he is mixing grace and works.

So you need to match it up to the word of God, then rethink what he said. The Bible is are final authority

@@saved6655 ok sorry let me restate that. In light of looking to the Scriptures again, I rethought what he said and still don’t agree with him

@@brianbrindisdesalas7338 ok now scripturally where was he wrong?

@@brianbrindisdesalas7338 you can’t say I don’t agree then not have scripture to back it up

Brian, that check in your spirit is correct. "Repentance" without actually "turning from sin" is not Biblical repentance that God accepts. I've been delving into the Scripture for many years now, and aside from the Greek (which I have some understanding of), the Scripture itself defines Repentance as beginning with a change of mind and must cause a change of behavior, else we have not repented. Scriptural Repentance in its greatest sense means a Change of Behavior. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qphyYNaj3M3aZqc.html

Exactly! If only he answered exactly what the sheep and coin did when it comes to repentance in Luke 15.

Trying so hard to "turn from sin" and it's impossible, can't stop sinning. Feel really hopeless when God is calling me to do something I can't as a dead man. There's nothing I can do, I am powerless and a wretched man in need of The Savior.

@@miabern8346 "come to Me, all ye who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest"

I think some of you need to listen to the message again with your ears wide open. He never said repentance was the action of turning from sin. He said repentance was a change of mind to the point where you ask what have I done in my life. And then the Turning from sin is a result of repentance.

Don Simonds it’s neither “turning from sin” nor “changing your mind”. Both of those are works, repentance is a gift from God.

What does "Go towards God mean"?
