The problem with these people, like the reformed and Calvinsts is that they see Grace as a doctrine, and that is a huge error. Grace is the entire core of the gospel, Grace is Jesus Christ Himself, the very essence of God Even the biblical cannon in Revelation ends with John praying for Jesus's grace to be with us

I tell people, if you are discussing your eternal salvation and your works enter into the conversation at any point, you've gone too far. Works are for discipleship and rewards, don't discuss them around the fact of your salvation. How am I saved? I believe in Jesus. How do I know that I'm saved? I still believe Jesus. If I look to my works as proof, I am doing a "trust but verify" on the Son of God, which is NOT believing in His promise.

I always think of this whenever i have trouble thinking works are required in my walk, why did Christ die? and if we can get ourselves to heaven, why did he die? And everytime without fail my mind is put back to peace, because its clear that it is not of ourselves, it the finished work of Christ that I believed on for eternal life to never perish.

I have to admit that when I got saved, Shamefully on my part that instead of opening the bible and finding out for myself what God says. I turned to KZfaq because I was naive to think that everyone representing and teaching Gods word was of God... But I found out the Hard way that not everyone was representing Gods truth.... But those who were, were they that believed the Gospel of 1 Corinthians 15:1-6 and I only needed to read 1 Corinthians 1:17-31 / Romans 3:20-26 / Eph 1:13-14/ 2 Thess 2:13-14 / 1 Peter 1:2 to see that when we believe God takes Satans hands away so the Scripture becomes clearer 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 / 2 Timothy 2:25-26/ and as I rightly divide Gods truth 2 Timothy 2:15. I begin to learn and see what's for me today and how to live in my dual nature (Feeding and walking in the Spirit Gal 5) until the rapture when I no more will have to deal with this sinful flesh.

Young Don! The gospel is the power of God unto salvation. Rom 1:16

As if Don’s butchering of the gospel wasn’t bad enough, I can’t stand his seemingly deliberate and arrogant vocal tone. It’s grating. Thank you for setting the gospel message straight.

He has j...u...s...t enough to appeal to Calvinists, and j...u...s...t enough for Arminians. I'm thankful that I'm neither. Thanks for this.

The fact he is using the ESV is very telling given it’s Calvinistic lean of how some scriptures were revised. Great explanation of our security in Christ for our salvation and how we can choose to live in our old ( shouldn’t) or new man ( should) and yet still be eternally secure. It brings such peace to rest in and on Christ and not my wayward self. I’ve heard Calvinists explain that practicing sin is habitually committing the same sins over and over vs merely “occasionally”committing sin. If a person occasionally ie “ not consistently” lies , occasionally has an impure thought , occasionally cusses yet another person DAILY ie “ habitually” cusses , lies, looks at adult content etc then there’s this presumed difference, yet sin no matter how often it’s committed is still sin , it misses the mark and all of it was paid for at the cross. Our flesh is what sins and it doesn’t matter if it’s habitual or occasional as in both instances the flesh is overriding the Spirit by our choices. Of course we should work on changing our sinful ways no matter how much of them there are as it does grieve God and likely sears our conscience so that we are less attuned to the conviction of the Holy Spirit. But we are sealed by His one time Work and faithfulness , not our PRESUMED increased good deeds and lack of sinning.

Hi brother Jesse. Maybe Don would be open to coming on your channel for debate/discussion? Just a thought

I've never met Jesse in person ( hopefully someday, Lord willing ) but he is my favorite all time pastor !!!

I wonder how people like Young Don deal with 1 Corinthians 15:42-58 if they refuse to believe there is no more "old man".

He changed his voice too to sound saved 🤦🏽‍♂️

“No one born of God makes a practice of sinning..” But they can have demons in them, right Don?

Fantastic, pastor. Such passion in your stance, your faith, your belief in the truth of the Gospel. It shows in your voice.

Jesus Christ, the Creator of the universe, every galaxy, every star, every planet, every living creature, is just not strong enough. He needs your works. 😂

I have to go back and start at the beginning of this series. Thank you for being so detailed in your videos. This is what I needed when I was under Calvinism-Lordship. God bless you Pastor Jesse.

Tnx 4 the good teaching Pastor.

Very interesting preaching Pastor.

Fantastic teaching, thank you

This series is so good. Well done Pastor

Great video Pastor Jesse & BibleLine

Thank you for your videos and ministry brother! God bless you!

this is great teaching! thank you Pastor

Amen brother

Amen, beautifully said! 🤍

One of my new favourite channels whooooooooooouuuuuuu

I would be curious to hear your critique of John MacArthur. I believe he’s a major proponent of Lordship salvation.

A tale as old as time, well the beginning of church age anyway. People accused Paul of the same thing they accuse us ”Free Gracers” of. 8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.

Romans 10:12 “For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.” ❤ 1 John 5:13 KJV These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.❤

He’s basically rejecting the cross

What a great voice though

Don is lost. He doesn’t understand scripture. Let’s pray for this man so that he can get saved have any father. Please put the truth in so that he can understand simplicity in Jesus name I pray amen.

Pastor Jesse: Thanks for clearing things up! I’m amazed that that the bible versions I’ve been using translate 1 Jn 3.9 as “does not continue sinning” while the KJV says “does not sin”. So as you recommend I’m purchasing a KJV. Does the NKJV have any problems? Is it as reliable as the KJV? May God continue to bless you brother! Mike

Question: Where does it say believera will receive rewards in heaven, and how do they do on earth (serving) can affect reigning with Christ in the millennium kingdom? What if someone became a beliver then die unexpectedly? I see a reward (singularl) by away love the channel and new subscriber(:

Jessie think about this. The corinthians WERE acting in those sins at the time that letter was written as the whole reason it was written was that they were carnal. This points even more to the duality of man. Because obviously they were currently actibg in that sin yet they were said to be sanctified and cleansed BY the holy spirit. Paul is saying it matter of factly that they have been cleansed so why would you continue to act in the old man. Crazy

John 3:16. Believe in Jesus Christ. John 6:28-29. Works of God. John 6:40. Will of God.

If you doubt your salvation almost everyday does that mean you have not actually believed?

What then if we at some time in the past believed in the Person and finished work of Jesus Christ to save us eternally BUT our view of eternally was not what the Bible's or God's view of eternity? What if our faith in Christ alone at the point of our belief was like the morning dew? What if because of adversity or sickness as our bodies aged we began to experience the "tortures of the damned" in them? What then happens when our pain and suffering in this life begins to speak to us FAR LOUDER than the faith and assurance and trust in God we once had? is this sort of like the foolish virgins that did not take enough oil with them to get them through the dark nights of the soul? I have gone through many days of dark nights of the soul then at one time came out with all kinds of assurance which lasted for decades then after having sinned a particular sin lost the joy and the peace of assurance which at one time was absolutely fantastic that resulted in first simply lifted off my life painlessly feeling the blahs then over time slowly sinking again into another dark night of the soul.

1 JOHN 3:8-9 *KJV* He that *committeth sin* is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9Whosoever is born of God *doth not commit sin;* for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 john 3:8-9 esv Whoever makes a *practice of sinning* is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a *practice of sinning,* for God's[b] seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. Young Don is quoting a CORRUPT "bible." "Practice sin" or COMMIT SIN? Either you have sin or you do not! 1 Cor. 15:2 *KJV* By which also *ye are saved,* if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 1 cor. 15:2 esv 15 Now I would remind you, brothers,[a] of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which *you are being saved,* if you hold fast to the word I preached to you-unless you believed in vain. "Saved" in verse 2 of 1 Corinthians 15 is referring to JUSTIFICATION. You are JUSTIFIED by trusting the gospel. You are reckoned righteousness. Justification is NOT A PROCESS. The esv states that you are BEING JUSTIFIED by the gospel, which is heresy.

20:00 Righteousness is Christ Himself, not actions. Like Gold is Gold and a piece of brown stuff is a piece of brown stuff, they don’t change from behavior. That is what he is missing.

Hey Pastor, this man Young Don used to believe and teach free grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.He used to defend the truth, but since he followed Chris Lasala, Young Don has went off the deep end. He is mentored by Chris Lasala, who I think is a false prophet. Young Don and his family moved to Christ Lasala's ranch, which seems to be cultism. Can you look up what Chris Lasala believes and teaches on solteriology?

The ESV and many other modern translations get verses like First John 3:7-9 WRONG. "Practice of sinning" and "cannot keep on sinning" are not good translations. They contradict the clear meaning of scripture to make this passage mean something it does not mean. God's word CANNOT contradict itself, but this translation contradicts the rest of the Bible.

Did god the father create the world or did Jesus also play a part in that as well? And do you have to believe that for salvation?

‭Romans 10:1-4 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. Paul wrote this about Israel, talking about how they did have zeal of God, but it was in ignorance, not with right knowledge. They were going around trying to make up their own righteousness by works of the law and it would never work. Christ satisfies the demand of the law for everyone who believes on him. But the pride and dead works of the Jews kept them from coming to Christ. But I fear this refers to most people in American churches today. Many, many Americans are very well-meaning people. They live good enough to stay out of trouble. The more I look into things, the more clear it is how subtle Satan has become within the religious circles, to give people false security. What does the bible say someone must do to be saved? Terms differ depending on the passage, but the invariable condition is belief/faith/trust in Jesus Christ, who died for all sinners, paying our sin debt with his blood. The flipside of that condition is repentance, which is turning FROM any other false religion or system or assumption, TO Christ. John 3:14-18. John 3:36. John 5:24. John 6:27-47. John 11:25. Acts 10:43. Acts 13:39. Acts 16:31. Romans 3:21-28. Romans 4:4-25. Romans 10:9-13. Galatians 2:16. Ephesians 2:8-9. And many, many more! But then what do we have? We have church after church and religious figure after religious figure using other terms which are nowhere in scripture. When you listen to reels of "Christian content on youtube, Facebook, or instagram, all of them use corrupt new Bible versions, and very misleading religious terms for salvation that the Bible never uses. How about these... Ask Jesus into your heart. Give your heart to Jesus. Give your life to Jesus. Commit your life to Christ. Repent of your sins. Make Jesus the Lord of your life. Follow Jesus. Literally anything but believe on the Lord Jesus. You know, the condition the Bible actually says! Some of these are mentioned as things for Christians to do after they're saved, but NEVER does the Bible mention any of these things as conditions to GET saved. Judas followed Jesus for 3 years.... but never believed on him (John 6:64). And yet, they're used so often! Most people you talk to, who claim to be Christians, when you ask further questions... they'll bring up things like a good moral life, church membership, etc etc as reasons for being a Christian. It's so sad. I think this is one of Satan's greatest deception. It's not Joel Osteen's church to lead all the people with itching ears away, though that is a big deception for many. It's not the insane religions like Mormonism or buddhism. I think his biggest deception is right in Christian circles - people who claim the name of Christ, but they add to his work, and leaven the lump with religious terms the bible never uses. John MacArthur preached where he made a super complicated difficult gospel with multiple conditions, saying salvation is super costly. Whoa, thought it was a free gift? Then, knowing many would say that's works salvation, he quickly said "well no, it's still grace, but working in you".... etc etc. The catholic church even said MacArthur is right! Hey, that ought to wake him up, the moment a catholic agrees with him! Many youtube influences make salvation a gospel of faith AND works, insisting both are necessary, frontloading the works. But hmm... what sayeth the scripture? ‭Romans 11:6 KJV‬ And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. Others may refute frontloading the works but then backload them instead, by saying it's "faith THAT works". Many have said "well faith alone saves, but if you truly have faith, it will not be alone." Then how is it faith alone to begin with, idiot?! It's pure doubletalk, speaking out both sides of their mouth. It amazes me how so few actually see through this. Satan has so many deceived by subtly sneaking a little leaven into the lump. Billy Graham did just that. I think this is the main point of Matthew 7:21-23... those tragic moments when people come to Jesus saying "Lord Lord" and he says depart from me. I fear many many church members coming before him with their works. "Lord Lord, did I not keep the law well? Did I not turn from my sins? Did I not give you my life? Did I not ask you into my heart?" All those things he never said to do. Only religion said to. But those who come, having simply believed on Him as their savior, he knows them and will never turn them away... and the more I hear people's stances, the more I wonder just how many good people in good churches are still outside of christ because they made it too complicated, adding too many conditions, and leaving out the one condition in the bible, that is, faith. We need to keep this trick of Satan in our sights to be ready anytime. ‭Philippians 3:9 KJV‬ And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

What about 2 Timothy 2:12? If we deny Him, He will deny us. Are you saying a person who accepts Christ, or believes momentarily will receive eternal life even if they quit believing and deny Him for a majority of the remainder of their life? And if they do, then wouldn't God be showing Himself as unfaithful, since if that person goes on to deny Him, He will not actually deny that person?

I took basic and advanced Greek years ago. I believe as you do that "practice of sinning" or "habitual sinning" are bad translations. I have come to believe these are bad translations into English because of the Greek present tense which Greek "scholars" tend to translate this way. I went to a very conservative Baptist college and even the professor there taught us this way of translating the Greek present tense by adding such words as "continue" or "habitual" or "practice" as reasonable additions to the SINGLE WORD SIN. The only reason I know that cannot mean this is because it contradicts the plain meaning of numerous passages of scripture that teach clearly a real believer can sin habitually and they CAN not only PRACTICE sin they can become experts at sin. Seriously though, Christians can be overtaken by their sin nature and CONTINUALLY sin so much so that they NEED others to help them overcome certain sins. Is not this the teaching of Galatians 6:1 " Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault(literally a trespass), ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted."? How about James 5:16 "Confess your faults (same word as in Gal. 6:1) one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed." What about James 5:19, 20 which is clearly talking about BRETHREN. "BRETHREN, if any of YOU do err (wander, stray) from the truth, and one convert him; 20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins." The converting here is not of a lost sinner, but of a saved believer who has erred and gone into sin. Do you mean real believers can be overtaken by sin and need help? That is EXACTLY what this passage is saying as well as Galatians 6:1 and other places. The death in this passage is a believer's untimely death as a result of living in sin as is talked about in other New Testament passages.

If God wants to throw a saved person into Hell, he can do it The Bible won’t save you
