Amazing video its a good reminder. I try my best to be better, out of love for my God, but I know thats not what decides what gets me in. I struggle feeling like I compromised my salvation when I fall. Yet im always comforted my The Lord in His Word, that im not enough, Jesus is! All walks of life can turn their lives to Christ, and God will renew them. Ive struggled and still do with same sex attraction, but I dont seek those relationships anymore. I dont want them after a few years because there is no relationship with man or woman that can ever compare the my relationship with my Father. Struggling with sin means 1. I know it doesnt glorify God and 2. I'm in the battle and Gods strength will get me through.
To all my brothers and sister in Christ, I hope you are encouraged by not just my words, but God encouraging you farther into your faith with Him.
Edit: Realized I needed to talk about myself and not make it a you guys thing. So I changed some yous I's and Me's.
Amen Fren! Thank you for sharing and being open and honest. We all have our sin struggles, and knowing that helps encourage us to press on. My primary struggles are with trust and contentment...
Our INABILITY to achieve the Righteousness of the Lord is much like the Inability of a 2 year old to “Perfectly” Accomplish what his parents ask of him, Quantified by a thousand.. Parents have pride and are filled with joy, and Reward the child who desires to obey and works hard to do so, as does the Lord with us…
It’s Defiance to the Parents orders, not Inability to do it perfectly, that gets the Punishment…

A longer excerpt of the short sermon is the top video on his page.

That's similar to what Augustine said about it...
Well said fren! Numbers 6:24-26
Tingles, Shivers & HOLY goose bumps. That was GOOD, Thanks!
God is love and he sent his only Son for us. Makes me think a little extra effort on my part to do what's right isn't such a big deal.
Thank you, this was lovely. God bless
By golly. I think he's right. Tears. And hope.
Beautiful 💯❤️!
Awesome!
Simple yet true. It's never been about anything anyone of us could do. It's all His doing.
I love this. Piercingly true.
Jesus died on the cross for my sins, he is my shepherd
Amen to that! Gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes...Thank You JESUS!
lets hear a strong sermon (or point to one) directed at a nominal pagan, someone unfamiliar or has a poor grasp of the gospels or the old testament.
