Blessings in Christ, John. Your videos look quite polished now, and very professional. I like how you are doing them! :thumbsupx1

I also love this particular subject matter, and the lead off passages you are using. Lord willing, if I have time I'd like to go through this one and see if there's some things I could comment on, and we could bat around together.

Blessings again. Just thought I'd encourage you on your work. Very well presented these days.

My advice to all is we stick to the original gospel and have naught to do with this other socially engineered
social justice inclusive one . And always remember THERE is none who is GOOD but GOD
and thus all need to BELEIVE ON JESUS THE CHRIST to be saved , and HE will change us and give us
the desire to do the things pleasing to GOD . cause without FAITH it is impossible to please him .
And if ones faith is not IN JESUS THE CHRIST , WELL THEIR FAITH is not IN HE WHO SENT HIM .

@Episkopos. Sorry to be doing this on your thread, but maybe I can request that these things be removed afterwards.

@amigo de christo @Marvelloustime
If I may, what is the reason for appearing to criticize someone who is going through the trouble to produce high quality teaching videos on the Christian Faith, when all you guys are doing is highjacking it by posting quaint memes or repeating a mantra that's been belabored to death and doesn't even address it?

That doesn't seem Christian to me. It seems quite the opposite.

The trouble is , it seems you all have forgotten what he has taught and has implied .
You ask him about muslims and other religoins and etc . ask him yourself . Now if he does lie
i will be happy to try and find and show and remind you what he has taught .
HE has non stop come against me for reminding all THEY MUST BELIEVE FIRST ON JESUS THE CHRIST .
Just cause he has learned how to tone it down and not attack , dont mean he still dont sing the same ol song .
HE is adapting friend . HE has come non stop against me for reminding all OF THE DIRE NEED TO FIRST BELIEVE ON JESUS the CHRIST .
He rather teaches the idea of picking up with the cross WITHOUT having any belief and faith IN HE WHO was CRUCIFIED on it .
But you go and you see what he has told me and others .
Talk to lisbeth , talk to some others . YOU SEE .

No offense, but I'm seeing the exact opposite. You're not addressing anything he said in the video. You're just maligning him like you're resentful of things in the past, and contaminating his thread with it.

When all of this leads to the most leavend place , dont just scratch your head and wonder why
it got there .
WHEN in time even the true gospel is shut down due to ITS offends
do not scratch your head and wonder how did this happen .
IT HAPPENED cause folks were to darn busy trying to get along and not correcting error .
SO i leave us with those simple words . The rest i leave to you to pray about .
But do remember i did warn my friend . i sure did .

Amigo, if you will notice, I'm not scratching my head at his post, I'm scratching my head at your behavior, which is very unbecoming in Christ. I have 10,000 posts at this forum, so I didn't just showed up yesterday, and your presumptions just because someone rubbed you the wrong way doctrinally a few times is a tad irresponsible. Be a better example in Christ instead of just contaminating threads with junk that has no substance to it whatsoever.

13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are donein the meekness of wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. 15 This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. 16 For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. 18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

@marks. Hello, Marks. How's life treating you these days.

I've found that generally when God wants something to be said He will open an effectual door if we wait for Him and stay in step with Him.....He'll provide the opening/opportunity and it will not be unseemly or out of place and stepping on toes unnecessarily.

hey bro,

There is a reason people do what they do to a known false teacher, false prophet and cult leader.

you should not encourage anyone to read epi's stuff.. Nor should you attack people who try to appose him

Thank you my friend . most have no idea what is going on my friend .
But as you well wrote , THERE IS A REASON why folks do what they do to a known false teacher
And you are correct we ought never encourage anyone to heed or to listen to such a man .
Most either dont remember or dont know what that man has taught and how often
he has come against me who simply says YE MUST FIRST BELIEVE ON JESUS the CHRIST or its all in vain .
Maybe our near and dear friend hidden in him will understand a bit better this reminder from you . its a GOOD One friend .

Ps 87:1... His foundation is in the holy mountains.
Ps 87:2The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
Ps 87:3Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
Ps 87:4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.
Ps 87:5And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.
Ps 87:6The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.
Ps 87:7As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

Ga 4:26But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
Ps 132:13For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
Ps 132:14This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
Isa 66:8Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children
Joh 6:53Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
Joh 6:54Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
It is all in there in those verses and more. Do any or many see more than as through a glass darkly? Help us dear Lord!

Hidden Mysteries of the Bible​

Colossians 2:3 'In him are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Colossians 1:26 'The mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord's people.'

....and what are those 'mysteries'? Is it not the full revelation of God's character as revealed in Jesus?

So then the violent death of Jesus and His followers was an aberration? Jesus avoided stepping on toes? You may have it exactly backwards...

There is your version...and then there is the truth.

I said "unnecessarily". You didn't read my post very carefully, it seems. It was just a little thought that came to mind. We should avoid stepping on people and causing them to be offended for reasons that have nothing to do with the message. Otherwise that will only do damage to the message so to speak, and make it less effectual. There is a rest in remembering that God is on His throne: "For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid...." (Rom 3:3-4)

It's more effective and in order when we wait for Him to open a door if we've got something in particular to say. Jesus only did what He saw the Father doing. In that way the Lord goes before us making a way, not we before Him.

Above all we should avoid preaching a false gospel .
Have you noticed a huge move within christanity
that has done all to say GOD is love , and will bring partial truths like GOD created all
God loves us and desires none to perish
YET WONT DARE PREACH THE ONLY NAME and THAT ONE MUST BELIEVE ON HIM SO as they can BE SAVED and not perish .
Cause i sure have . I Seem to notice a lot of folks that can use his words
even teach concepts about picking up the cross
YET sure seem to have a problem with those WHO REMIND all about the dire NEED TO FIRST BELIEVE ON HIM
and that IF WE DO NOT , ITS ALL IN VAIN . Have ya noticed THAT . that is known as A FALSE GOSPEL
a means by which man can attain and man can do , YET NO FAITH IN GOD .
You might ask yourself why i said NO FAITH IN GOD .
WELL , if one has not faith IN JESUS THE CHRIST , THEN THEY HAVE NO FAITH IN HE WHO SENT HIM .

This is a war and by grace i shall not retreat , shall not conform , but shall expose all works of darkness
reminding all of JESUS THE CHRIST , THE DIRE NEED TO BELIEVE ON HIM and ALL THINGS HE DID TEACH
and later the apostels taught . OH its a war all right . NO retreat and no surrender , THE LORD IS WITH the lambs
and the cost will be the cost .
