To most believers we live as if we can choose to suffer for Christ or choose not to suffer. Jesus said, "You will suffer..." Sure, suffering does come in all different shapes and sizes, but the question is how are you suffering for JESUS CHRIST?

If you read this comment nowadays i encourage you, this word that you have heard it's true. The road is difficult, the door is narrow, but it is possible. We need to focus on eternity, we need to take our cross and be like Jesus, even if the world is against us, God will be with us until the end of times. Forever.

Thank you for encouraging us, Pablo. What's interesting in that verse is that the original version of the New Testament, which is in the ancient Greek language, says: and the road is full of sorrows. Sadly, all English translations do not add that word.

So great Pastor, I have been a child of God for nearly 40 years and needed to hear this again. I know that I'm in need of the sufferings of Christ as it draws us closer to Him.

Finding his ministry has been an incredible blessing! It has been so hard to want to attend churches in this area, so getting to hear him has helped me so much!

The scriptures say every bit of what Pastor Chan is preaching..let those who have eyes see those who have ears hear...all the Glory to God.

allright pastor Francis... that's great I think when the preacher doesn't care what anyone thinks....when the gloves come off... when he doesn't care if he get invited back to a place... the real people of God love that.....

Romans 10:9-10 "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved."

Scripture says that our Messiah learned obedience in the things that he suffered. If HE needed it, then surely we must also.

@oswaldcobblepot502 Жыл бұрын

He did not "learn" obedience as he was God. Also being God, he never had to struggle with the unknown. His suffering on the cross was all voluntary. Yet he turns around and makes his own people suffer by force. How loving and genuine!

Not by force...its an honor because the Holy Spirit puts in us wanting as to doing. @@oswaldcobblepot502

Wow! I'm going to borrow a line from one of my favorite movies, A Few Good Men, Tom Cruise yells this to Jack Nicholson "You can't handle the truth!!" IMHO that's the way it is with many American Christians. The path is broad that leads to destruction and many take it. Thank you Francis for preaching the Truth! Btw, if anyone from your organization happen to read this, how can we start a Home Church? I've sent emails to the organization and haven't heard anything. Blessings to you all!
