An Appeal to the Dead to Repent and Believe “If someone is not born again, he is not able to see the Kingdom of God.” (Jn 3:3) My friend, I beg you read earnestly my words that I am writing for you, I pray through Jesus Christ to the Father that He would move His Spirit through you and give you understanding of my words, I urge you to pray likewise. Now to the good news of the Gospel, which at first may be hard to bear, but please stick with me and see the glorious truth of what Jesus Christ has done for His sheep. You must be born again because you were born sinful and this sinfulness comes from your corrupt nature which you inherited from your forefather Adam, who was cursed in the garden of Eden when he broke the one rule He was given by God. Do you doubt my claim? Well then let me prove it to you friend. “You have no excuse, O man, all who judge, because in what you judge another for, you condemn yourself, because you do the same things you judge against (Ro 2:1).” Do you not judge people who lie, especially to you? Then why do you lie to others? Do you not judge those who steal, especially from you? Then why do you steal from others? Do you not judge those who gossip, especially against you? Then why do you gossip about others? Do you not judge those who are disrespectful to their parents or their spouses or children? Then why do you disrespect yours as well? Do you not judge those who are lazy? Why then do you slack off when you know you should not? Must I continue? Why do you do the very things you deem to be wrong? and why do you do them so easily? why do they come so naturally to you? Do you think that you can stand the judgement of God, the perfect Judge, when you cannot even stand against your own judgement? Do you not have thoughts daily that you would never dare to share with anyone? Would you not cringe at the very thought of your thoughts being put on display for a whole room of people to see? Do you not know that God knows your every thought? This is why Jesus says, “evil thoughts come out of the heart of men from within (Mk 7:21).” Doesn’t the very fact that you don’t even control these thoughts, and that they come out of you naturally show you that your heart is sick? This is why you must be born again friend, you have a sick sinful heart. You break the law of God daily, and God cannot look on injustice, “The Lord... will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children and the children’s children, to the third and the fourth generation.” With this sin sick heart, you cannot be in the presence of God in heaven. Luckily God has told us, “I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you will be clean: from all your filthiness... I will cleanse you. A new heart also I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you (Ez 36:25-26).” This is the new birth, there is a somewhat unsettling thing about this new birth though friend, you cannot do it to yourself. Rebirth is totally from God, Jesus compares the new birth to the wind when He says, “The wind blows where it desires, and its voice you hear, but you don’t know from where it comes and where it goes. In the same way is everyone who is born of the Spirit (Jn 3:8).” You cannot coax God into making you born again by doing vein religious, or righteous deeds. Can a criminal who is guilty of murder convince the judge to get him off by doing good deeds? No. Neither can you convince God to make you born again by doing “good deeds.” Our good deeds are marred by our sinful nature, we do them for selfish reasons, whether that be glory from men or something else, we do not do them to please God, and good deeds to try to convince God to forgive you are just as selfish, you still aren’t doing them to please God but only to save your own skin. It must be through God alone, so it would be by grace and not of your works, so God would get the glory from saving you, and not yourself (Ep 2:8-9). If the new birth is totally from God how do you know if you are born again? I will happily tell you friend. Jesus gives us a very simple road map when He tells us, “The time has been fulfilled and the Kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe in the Gospel! (Mk 7:15)” This is how you know you have been born again friend, if you repent of your sinful nature, you turn away from it and desire instead to seek God and to do what is pleasing to Him, this proves that God has removed your heart of stone and given you a heart of flesh, this shows that you are no longer a slave to sin but have become a partaker of the divine nature. Not only repentance though, the Apostle John tells us, “Everyone believing that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God (1 Jn 5:1).” Jesus Christ is the Word of God, this Word was in the beginning with God, and He is God. God came down and dwelt among us in the flesh, He was born in the likeness of our sinful flesh, but He was born of the Spirit of God from a virgin, not having this sinful nature we do, but being the very imprint of the nature of God in human flesh. He was born under the burden of the law of God, and he fulfilled every law perfectly, He never sinned once, thus becoming justified before God in the flesh. He was absolutely innocent and guiltless, yet He gave Himself up to be mocked, beaten, tortured and crucified on the cross, He became sin on the cross and took the punishment we deserved. He did this to fulfill the wrath of God against sin, this is how God who is perfectly just, can be merciful to us sinners and let us in His presence in heaven. Jesus takes on our sin, and bears it on the cross, so He can bestow on us His righteousness, which makes us perfect and blameless before God. He died on that cross and rose again living three days later, conquering death itself under His foot. He was the firstborn from the dead with a perfect body after resurrection, being an example of what we will be in the glorious day when we will be resurrected. He now mediates between us and the Father, constantly praying for us and asking forgiveness from the Father for our sins, and He offers His perfect sacrifice in the place of our sins. He is perfectly able to save us through His sacrifice and His mediation. The Holy Spirit unites us to Jesus Christ’s sacrifice, and gives us the benefits of them by convicting us of our sin, showing us our foolish ways, and granting us repentance, and gifting to us faith in Christ and the Gospel. I pray He will do this for you today my friend. What should you do now? Now my friend, if you have truly been born again, you must live it. You must, “walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called (Ep 4:1).” Christ told us that this walk would not be an easy one, so you must be sure it is one you are ready to take, Christ told us, “whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple (Lk 14:27).” We must deny ourselves and our sinful nature, and we must live for Christ. What might this walk look like? “Without faith it is impossible to please (God) (He 11:6).” First and foremost it means walking by faith in God, trusting that He will lead you, protect you, and sustain you. This also means walking with, humility, gentleness, patience, bearing with everyone in love, eager to maintain unity in Spirit with believers in the bond of peace, it means removing sin from your flesh, and living a Godly life, it means doing good things for people, not for yourself, but for God, in thanks of the grace He has given to you. It means gathering with believers at church, listening to a sermon, and fellowshipping and singing with fellow believers. It means reading the bible and learning about the things of God, letting it nourish you and help you grow. I wish I could cover everything with you now friend but I can’t. This is a long walk you will have to take throughout the rest of your life, but you will not be alone. God will always be there with you to protect and keep you. He is not willing that any of His sheep perish. Finally, I leave you with a last piece of advice. Go find a bible believing church quickly, it will help you immensely in your walk and your growth with God. Founders Ministries has a church search tool on their website that should be a good start for you. Go find a church and be baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Live a live worthy of the gospel call which you have been called to. I will pray for you friend. God bless you, and may He ever be with you.

What's a series ?

Hi coach. Great content as always. Is the decision to set the pin down screen a read or a call?

Amazing!

Great video! Thanks for this.

Call did good but they had the double screen too

Good stuff

Great breakdown coach

Thanks for sharing

good stuff

We have become a national powerhouse. One of the best teams in the country. In 2021 Nate Oats won his first ( but definitely not his last ) SEC CHAMPIONSHIP and also the SEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP! in 2023 Alabama was ranked #1 for most of the season. we won a record 31 games ( 31-6 )and also won the SEC REGULAR SEASON CHAMPIONSHIP AND THE SEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP. We should have made it to the championship game but the murder of that girl put so much pressure on our team plus Brandon Miller got injured in the SEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. so he played like crap and we lost to a team that we should have beaten with ease. and finally in 2024 we beat North Carolina and Clemson and made it to the schools first everFINAL 4. Only one thing left to accomplish and that is the National championship!!! Coach Oats WILL win Alabama a national championship. Next season ( the 2024-2025 season ) we have on paper the best roster in the history of Alabama basketball I expect a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP this next season, and that is ( as of today ) without knowing if Mark Sears is returning or not. Mark avg over 21 points last season and was a all-American. One of the best players in the country. If he returns and we get cliff from Baylor, we will be unstoppable!!!!!!! Roooooolllll Tide Roll!!!!!!!!

That play you are running is correct but the positions are wrong and where they are the ball is thrown to the wing then to the top to throw to the post to go into weak and get a drift screen. Frank himself taught it to me

How would you implement this at the junior college level?

Wow just found my new favorite channel I love it your a very smart coach u just earned a new subscriber sir

ALWAYS HONOR GOD AND DO WHAT HE WANTS! JESUS IS COMING BACK SOON!❤

Thats a thing of beauty right there

2 should’ve stayed with 43

Jesus Christ bro I wasn’t even looking at the slip that’s a really good move

just switch it everything and u good

Beautiful

Villanova is the goat

Communication is key, no need for 3 players to contest the shooter especially from deep.

Based off body language it looked like there wasn’t communication for screen help at all. Or switches… #11 should’ve stay with rebounder since he didn’t fully commit to contest the jumper( jump the gun early) and if he did that? #1 should’ve stayed with that big man that screened him. To slow his momentum.

Just play zone

Never noticed this much strategization in a basketball game. Wow, hats off to the UConn coaches.

#11 should've stayed back in the post to box out. As soon as he moved out to defend the other team took advantage

Do you think this would work with Kuzma? Warriors in talks for him right now

Box and 1 spread

Defender hedget way too much almost double teamed the pg, I'd switch or less help

Great video very informative keep it up 👍 💯

'PromoSM' 🌈

Love these kinds of breakdowns. Thank you for putting these videos together. 🙏

Nice❤

Simple and effective!

warriors uses to run that play alot 2013 under mark jackson,really good to get guys open,worked for steph and klay,classic elevator play

Yo I know nothing about basketball but there's no comments🎉 I'm first🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊

Yeah that’s not a travel lmao.

A good team is crushing this team keep it up top or by the sides and rapid fire the ball any good shooter is gonna eat that contest after the pass

Seal on the second switch go one-on-one with the guy in the paint with your kick out to the three in the corner

Already use it nice set.

I love football and watching play breakdowns. I don’t feel the same about basketball but I ended up watching this multiple times until it made sense and enjoyed the process.

Nice

Good looks coach 💪🏾✊🏾!! Definitely going to let the team know about this and break it down for them. All these plays with many different options are deadly if executed correctly.

who is the head coach in this video and what school? is there a full practice film of this ? Thank you in advance.
