I grew up hearing this message over and over again....I now take anti anxiety meds...I definitely have religious trauma and I know I am not the only one. Instead of being excited about my faith, I lived in constant dread of it...
I’m glad that I go to Calvary Chapel they teach book by book chapter by chapter verse by verse. I ever liked how the upci preach taking verses and twisting them.
This is an excellent video; thank you so much! I do, however, have a slight push back. I completely agee UPCI churches as a whole, constantly and unnecessarily use fear mongering tactics. My 5 year old son used to wake up often from end times nightmares and consoling him was difficult to say the least. And although I believe the love of Christ; what He's accomplished on the cross, His resurrection, the drawing of the Holy Spirit and the truths of the Bible promises to draw people unto repentance; I also believe, some ( few,) come to saving faith out of a place of fear. This, of course, would be visiting unbelievers within a church setting. Maybe you stated that and I misunderstood you. If I did; I apologize. 🙈 Bottom line though; yes.... Breeding fear within already saved believers isn't found in the Bible. They really need to take into account their audience and cease terrifying little children or adults who may suffer from anxiety issues. Thank you for shining light into a dark place! Every blessing to you both! 🙏🏻
I know what you’re saying and believe the end times should never be taught as a fear tactic and a pastor should teach against fear but but but as a person that believes in the prophetic words , that is prophesy , we do see the nations lining up exactly like the word says with turkey , Russia , Iran, the attacks against iserael at an alarming pace and more antisemitism around the world, disasters on every part, weather calamities, what I’m saying is if this causing fear to the true Christian , then do they really understand who they are in Christ and that this isn’t our home, we are living towards eternity not this word Love you guys much but a little different or maybe added perspective, but to finish by saying, someone who went to world Harvest church in Columbus , I recognize the feaf that these pastors use when taken scripture out of context and not using them to share simple truth Thanks Your brother in Christ Mike
Pray for those being made to fear they are never good enough and you should fear your salvation, Jesus loves you !

Jesus coming back should be an exciting message!
This is such a great discussion I am going to watch it again and again. I would give you ten thumbs up if I could.
Another good video

It’s been my experience that most pentecostal pastors are so ignorant of sound doctrine.
For most of them it’s about building their own kingdoms
Azusa Street was the end times church too.

What about the 10 Virgins?
Yes. That would be an excellent topic of discussion. ☺️
