But what if the worst thing is last? What if you have a young adult child who rejected God, and then without warning died? Agnostic siblings die without Christ? Will their torment in hell not be the last thing? I’m not questioning God’s judgement. He is just. But I find no comfort.

Greetings. Love this . I can't believe I'm only getting around to listening to this woman now. My husband has been raving for years. I guess I felt it was beyond my capabilities to read from what I perceived was a more intellectual, academic 'learned' person than myself. I was a simple fisherman in comparison but anyway, I'm glad I can stand in union with her now.

Serene Jones is a gaslighting fascist. Nazi.

There were two goats - one is the LORD's goat & the other is the scapegoat. If you compare the scapegoat to Jesus, it doesn't make sense. Here's a brief comparison. SCAPEGOAT: - was never called an offering - Lev 16:10 - was never brought into the temple - Lev 16:7,20,21, Luke 10:18 - never sheds blood. Lev 16:10,20,21 - was kept alive and sent into the wilderness. JESUS: - was an offering - Isa 53:10 - was brought into the tabernacle - Heb 9:11,12 - Shed His blood - Luke 22:20 LORD's GOAT: - offered as a sin offering - Lev 16:9 - blood shed - Lev 16 Jesus bore the full brunt of sin for us and because of His grace and we are no longer under the condemnation of sin. That said, Satan will not be saved from his sins and will continue to carry the guilt of his sins until his final defeat - into the wilderness - into the bottomless pit spoken of in Revelation 9.

Aren't we the branches?

Are we the leaves or the fruit?

I used to go here in the early 2000s. Even though I’m Catholic I found it to be such a beautiful and powerful religious experience. I got to sit with the priest of Ganesh and learn prayers. There is a part of me that believes in reincarnation.

Such a profound and insightful message

Have You known sister, that all Moslem will be comers in the hell ? Please read your Qur'ran Surah Maryam verse 71. I won't to be Moslem because I have decided to follow Yesus as my Savior, so I have been free from the hell fire.

Phyllis Tickle - a woman whose joyful, intelligent and prophetic ministry was never about self but always about recognizing, serving and promoting what others are doing. I resonate with that call and am enduringly inspired by Phyllis’ insightful and progressive example.I am perpetually grateful for Phyllis’ great generosity to one such as me! Her encouragement of and belief in my writing were unfailing. She was a faithful and nurturing correspondent with me over more than a decade and I am forever thankful to Phyllis for her generosity in endorsing three of my books - all with her typical poetry and enthusiasm. RIP Phyllis! We miss you. Vale! XXX

I had Juan as a counselor in 1987 at Lawrence Hall in Chicago and you will not find a nicer more genuine person

Thanks!

Fantastic!!!

What you call hope, i call trust. What you call God, i call Life. Wonderful talk ❤

Amen & Amen❤😊

This message is an amazing affirmation of Dr. Lew's faith and his practical walk with God. I think this is all the more compelling in that it was recorded in November 2002, just weeks before Lew died on December 19.

Religions are framed on a monomyth template. You can't worship a fake religion with billions of idol worshipers, (Christains) and not have it look like the evolving tribes that hide behind it.

Amazing Grace.❤😊🎉 Thank you God.

Greetings Dr. Thomas, by chance or providence I came upon your presentation. I was joyed to once again hear you speak. Years ago I lived in Kansas City and you challenged me to imagine preaching in a different way. I have never forgotten the brief discussion. My preaching changed for what believe to be for the better. Additionally, my own hearing of good preaching thrills my soul. Blessings, Frank Shope

bro this guy is a sex offender

What a gift to humanity! Thank you Rabbi

Wow !

You’re clueless and evil to be spreading his message

Calvin Miller my childhood pastor is the most scum bag profit driven pastor of all time! Special place in hell waiting for him!!!

I grew up with this man and he watched me grow up as well in Omaha Nebraska. I’ve never met a more ego driven man that’s only concern was the church’s finances and how much money they made from suckers. There is a special place in Hell for this man and his wife Barb should be ashamed of his blasphemy!!!

This is really good

Unlike so many of the shallow, I will not abandon my huge admiration for Jean Vanier because he may have had human weaknesses, as we all do. Nor will my admiration be unreasonably diverted or diminished by the anxious cries and bleats of the many who desperately try to demonstrate their own superior moral rectitude and so glibly throw overboard the reputation of a man who was greater than they will ever be.

Cell will teach us.. yes in fact and I agree…

What a wonder sermon he said every Sunday. I never met another preacher as good as he was❤️.

"Nothing shall B able to separate us from d love of God that is ours in Christ Jesus our Lord" If U will make Him your Lord, His love 4 U will not break its continuance. This hope is not wishy washy, but is a sure confidence in Him.

This was such a beautiful representation ❤ thank you Jesus! God bless🙌🏼

Is this woman a Christian or does she just like one line from the Bible?

...."listen to the stirring of your true self as a child of God." Only one sentence among many you shared that will linger all day. Thank you for your profound encouragement on this journey of fear to faith. I still hope there may be a book with your lifetime of sermons that can inspire.

Absolutely Brilliant !

Siracide 15, 16 - 17

So according to the good sister, silence is the answer. So Jesus didn’t have to die on the cross after all? How about doing what Jesus said in the Great Commission. Now there’s a novel idea, sister.

great sermon!

great stuff, God Bless!

Amén. Gracias por tan importantísima palabra de Gracia. Bendiciones

What an amazing blast from the past! I never met these gentlemen, but they have been like great teachers from High School to where I can still channel their voices even now. Thank you for posting!

Diversity? Create 30000 new religions Against the monopoly of the 5 major Religions

Not a good interview, I recommend Ms. Rutledge’s talks on you tube, to really get her wisdom.

"God's grace will make it right"- Agreed ❤

Y'all, the reason for the title is that Stanley- by nature- is provocative. I can assure you that he picked the title. Read "Dispatches from the Front" or Peaceable Kingdom" and you get very provocative titles of his chapters. It's how he communicates. I love this about Haurwas. In a world of boring pablum disguised as theology, he stands out, gets your attention and makes you think. My response to this presentation is that Jesus didn't say "Tolerate others as I have tolerated you." He said love others as I have loved you." Loving others demands much more work from us who claim Jesus as our Lord than tolerance can.

...and if you embrace a religion to escape hell then your faith is grounded in fear not love.
