I listened to Pastor Jeff few times... the Spirit warned me and told me do not listened to him. He's not listening by the Spirit at all. So grateful for my conversion to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ❤❤
I have too. I felt it right away. I’ve talked to other members who justify listening to him and they said this: well it’s good to support someone who does try to be a listener instead of someone spewing hate about the church. Nope, jeff has proven that he tries to bring down the doctrine. Nope. I’m glad you see it!
David. THIS is the stuff. THIS. THIS is the deep down truth people have got to give an ear to. Love every bit of this video. Hoorah for Israel forever and always. The prophet has warned us about giving an ear to people like Jeff on the internet. Saints who pay attention to Jeff. Don’t justify it in any way. It destroys the spirit more than you can recognize. David, thank you for your words. I will say it again. God called to you, you listened with a humble heart. We have gained a very strong Saint. I thank the lord for you strong saints out there.
Brother David, you remind me of myself after I came into the Gospel. I handed out Books of Mormon to all my family, I tried to tell them the Good News and they thought I was crazy. 37 years later they just roll their eyes and tell me they love me. They see how the Gospel changed my whole life for the better, though they don't embrace it themselves. At least they don't call me crazy. God bless you Brother. 🙏 ❤🙏
Thank you so much! I stopped watching Jeff when he read & dissected parts of the Book of Mormon. There was no true curiosity happening. It all felt false. Why are we all so easily delighted when other Christians talk nice to us? I fear we're too easily flattered away. I love you & your videos because you love & speak the Truth! Thank you so much! God Bless you!
He is in the Book of Mormon; Korihor....but he believes his stuff. It's ingrained. It's fancy words and flattering. And he is very, very, nice. Not for me. 50 years in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. When the truth pricks you, you can see the fake and vain babbling.
I totally agree and I even commented on Pastor Jeff’s page when I caught the same thing. I stopped watching him because of it. He’s moving to Utah to try and pull members away. I truly believe this. I liked the idea that at first I thought he was doing something good. I don’t believe that anymore. Too bad
Problem is when we don't stop denouncing deception and continue to oppose the devil the devil responds by causing difficulties with our own repentance process on the Covenant Path with the temple.
That's is why Jesus turned Paul into an Apostle; even though Paul killed Christians, he was very well educated on the scriptures, and God turned David Alexander because of his knowledge of the scriptures.
David, your prior churches didn't baptize you because they did not have authority, and deep down they were stump with the ordinance of baptism. If baptism was not necessary, then why did Jesus Christ travel 40 miles to received baptism by John the Baptist who had the authority to perform baptism? Thank you David Alexander and welcome to our church! I'm happy to hear how you can see clearly now....now that you are part of the restored gospel.
Greetings brother David, it could have been more loving, when you humbly exhort brother Jeff M tha it is not coincidental that he's now in Utah, my testimony is that, Heavenly Father draws him there to feel and see God's Power and Glory. Just like all of us, that it is not coincidence that we are here in your site, I know Heavenly Father led us here to be enlighten of His Power and Glory (Love).
Baptism is necessary even if you have faith for Cornelius knew that he had to go to an Apostle of the Lord who had the authority in order to be baptized even though Cornelius had an angle speak to him face to face. Faith alone isn't enough to enter into the Father's kingdom. He had to go to one who had the authority to give him the ordinance..
The reformers did not have the authority to baptize either . Though they were brave and wonderful and helped made the way for the restored gospel of Jesus Christ to be brought back I’m wondering where the reformers would have their authority ? And did they kill the reformers for baptizing or for not believing in the Trinity ? Or just for not believing what they taught or was it not killing for not believing in the Trinity ?? No one had proper authority until the gospel was restored . Jeff feels there was never a falling away .
Your broadcast was so enlightening. Those reminders of 1000’s who have died been tortured and unjustly incarcerated underscores how evil the adversary is and how determined he is to destroy what comes from our Savior. You became more excited than I’ve ever seen as you talked about something that is now so near and dear to your heart AND RIGHTLY SO!! You have spent your life in search of the TRUTH and you understand how precious these truths are. Pastor Jeff is a wolf in sheep’s clothing and telling people they don’t need baptism is a damnable doctrine of the devil!! Leading people astray and confusing those who are tender in gospel is something he will one day answer for. Thank you David for being the voice of truth crying in this worldly wilderness of lies deceit and confusion!!
Thanks David for your powerful testimony. I was once saved at the age of 12 at a evangelical revival meeting. I was truly moved by the Spirit. Then a strange thing happened about a year later. I was moved again by the Spirit to give my heart to Christ at another revival meeting. How could this be, I asked myself? I believe that the Spirit was preparing me for the truth. Another year passed when the missionaries knocked on our door. Shortly thereafter, my parents, siblings and I were baptised into the Saviour's restored church by the proper priesthood. After 53 years we remain faithful. Christ commanded his Apostles to.. ¶ "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" can it be any simpler to believe and follow. PJ your name is on the Temple prayer roll.
David, You never cease to amaze me! You have an amazing gift to articulate the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is one of the “gifts of the Spirit” mentioned in the Doctrine of Covenants section 46. The Church is True!!!
David, I love your passion and clarity! The thing is, Pastor Jeff cannot believe that baptism is truly essential for salvation, because he doesn’t believe in vicarious baptism for those who haven’t had an opportunity for baptism on earth. The requirement of baptism without Heavenly Father providing a way for all His children to receive this ordinance, would be grossly unfair to 99.999% of His children-and Jeff knows it. Only the Latter-day Saints really understand the incomprehensible grace of the Father and the Son. The grace that is offered to God’s children is so much greater than Pastor Jeff could ever know, unless he (like all of us) repents and humbles himself to this reality.
I have to comment again! David your song touched me deeply. Brought tears to my eyes thinking of the passion you have for the gospel. The passion I have for it too. That it is felt by others. Love you so much brother David. So does my entire family. I’m listening again while I paint😂💕
The second commandment says to love your neighbour as yourself. It includes everyone. ;) Pastor Jeff understands the teachings of Christ differently and we might not agree that in everything he teaches but we still need to love him, the way that God loves him. Loving someone (the Savior’s way) is not always easy but with Christ’ help, it is easier.
It makes sense why pastor Jeff would say baptism isn’t necessary. You know how much work and organization would be required of him and his church if he believed baptism is necessary to enter the Kingdom of God? The baptism of the dead would be a work he wouldn’t and couldn’t organize because frankly they’re not guided by priesthood authority or divine revelation. This is the whole purpose of temples; to help the dead with their salvation by providing a way for them to be baptized, among other ordinances. They don’t even call themselves saints. This title was given to the members of the original Church of Jesus Christ and the proof is in the New Testament in the letters of Paul to the saints. These truths just add to my testimony that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the true church and Kingdom of God on earth today. The organization of said church is perfect even if we as members aren’t. Thank you brother David for opening your mouth and speaking truth while denouncing deception!
I have heard other evangelicals say that baptism is a "requirement" and others say that all we need is faith and baptism isn't needed. Not sure which evangelical theology to look into
@@GwPoKo yes, this is precisely what David talks about when he says there are over 40,000 christian denominations because they can’t agree on core principles do to their own interpretations; “having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof.” I don’t mean to come off as critical of them, because I’d rather they believe in Christ in their own way (even if it be wrong) than to not believe in God at all. There is still much good that comes from it, even if it lends to more chaos and confusion. But the truth must “come forth boldly and nobly”.
I saw that video of pastor Jeff minimizing baptism 😢 I was heart broken. I call on every LDS MEMBER that has watched his videos on UA-cam to pray🙏 for him and his family so he can wide open his eyes 👀 and see clearly and change his ❤ . If he has a change of heart to the truth of the gospel he will be a great Saint and powerful missionary preaching the gospel to every corner of the world. And to the kids in India, North Korea, China and the Middle East will know the truth Gospel of Jesus Christ. And that my brothers and sisters will be a Great True Miracle.🙏❤❣
His eyes are wide open to what he is doing. He has been doing this for along time. Most of his followers are ex members of the LDS church. He is very clear and knows EXACTLY what he is doing. He can use prayers for sure but he does clearly knows what he is doing and preaching and teaching false doctrine and creating and teaching confusion, even non members of the Church know how confusing he is when he tries to teach things, it’s incredible.
I went to a Hutterite Colony while on my mission 30 years ago. They invite all to come eat with them. I served my mission in Alberta Canada. There were a number of colonies in Alberta. Thank you again David for teaching and sharing with me! I am So thankful for your videos!
Thank you, David, for your sincere, powerful and unwavering testimony of the truth! Yes, baptism by immersion by those who have the Lord’s authority is essential to salvation. Power-on dear brother! You are not alone and will be blessed. Thank you for your wonderful way, for not being afraid to show others The Way. Jesus Christ is The Way. The true Church of Jesus Christ has been restored! Keep on sharing your testimony with all. May our Heavenly Father’s choicest blessing be yours now and always!
If baptism isn’t required then why did Jesus Christ be baptized? He was perfect and didn’t need a remission of his sins. He did it to show the example that we absolutely need to be baptized. It is one of the most important ordinances of the gospel Christ set the example Why wouldn’t you want to follow that and do what the Savior shows us to do ? It is totally essential!
Did you know that the Catholic Church actually apologized to us for requiring baptism for members leaving to join the Catholic Church? They don’t require it for Protestants leaving their church. Our leaders smiled and said no offense taken… we also require baptism for all who choose to join the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints ❤ But it was a sign of a mending relationship that they apologized. We are blessed to have the restored gospel and a much clearer picture of how to live a life filled with peace. Repentance is key… as we all fail ❤ I do love your passion… it never ceases to inspire me.
Jeff had the wonderful experience of learning a tremendous amount of the false doctrines of men in 4 years of paid ministry "bible college". Thank you for this message, Brother David. You are super inspiring and motivating. I so much love every one of your messages. I hope everyone will LIKE this video.
David, if anyone can help Pastor Jeff, it is YOU! I have prayed and hoped that he would feel the truth, but he seems to be hardened. The Book of Mormon I hoped would lead him to the truth, but he doesn't seem to feel the Spirit of this great work. I love you, David. This episode really touched my heart. We have no idea the suffering of those precious martyrs. I only hope if I had to stand for my faith by suffering, that the Lord would give me strength to do so. I must be true, as I know this work to be the true restored Church of Jesus Christ. ❤ Ida
Unfortunately Jeff’s was fully aware of the Book Of Mormon and never had any ntentions good towards any of it, his whole thing is an act and he is very clearer. I analyzed his tactics, how he talks, subject matters and how he lured people in and acted like a friend of members of the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints and as if he was investigating the Church and I would see all these members of LDS Church believing all of his stuff and wishing him well and hoping he see the truth but in fact he already knew what he knew and his intent was to rob members of there faith. Most of his followers on You Tube are EX. Members of the Church. I’m glad people aren’t wasting their time there anymore. Blessings and hoping only the best for brother Jeff’s and not wishing any I’ll upon him but he is stuck with intentions of no good towards the Church.
Dear David, your appeal to truth, common sense, or even justice will fall on deaf ears with Pastor Jeff; Jeff is making money, he does not hold you in anything but contempt, but not so with me. I honor and revere your testimony, your courage to declare it.
He is not interested in knowing the truth, the truth that can set him free, free from his lust for money and for fame . We should submit his name to the Prayer Temple Roll.
Thank you David. If so called Pastor Jeff will hear your words, maybe the Holy Ghost will prick his heart and hopefully he and his wife will humble themselves to the truth. We are so thankful for the missionary work that you are doing through the Holy Ghost that abides in you. We love you❣️♥️♥️
@@lukehanson_ Jeff is replacing his curiosity with criticism. He deserves to be called out. His channel would be better if he listened to David's comments and took them into consideration. David has nothing to learn from Pastor Jeff. He's already been there.
@@lukehanson_It doesn't necessarily apply in this instance but so they say "If you want to be an example, you have to lead by example." Jeff is fearful. He'll say that it's to avoid negativity or avoid confrontation, but it's fear. Jeff has felt inside he knows what he needs to do, it's undeniable, but he doesn't want to listen. He's so set in his ways. He's thought about a conversation with David, but what is he to do when David convinces him? Being a Pastor is his job. I'd be terrified too, but if you knowingly go against it, you're accountable. He's afraid. Unless it works to his benefit, he won't do it. Most people would jump at an opportunity to flip a Mormon, younger groups HAVE tried but Jeff knows he can't walk out of this one alive. Still, I think Jeff knows who David is and IS keeping a careful eye on him because he knows David could dismantle his work, David's a threat so, yes, I think he is watching David's stuff as David apposes his efforts and David's viewers see what Hello Saints does. If Jeff were ignorant, he would all avoid it but, David knows Jeff's methods and that disrupts Jeff so, yes, I'm sure Stick of Joseph and CWIC MEDIA have told Jeff what's going on, and Jeff knowing what kind of a dent David could make, attacking Jeff's livlihood and his reputation, there's a competition now for who will listen to who. But, with your statement, many would say "well who is the bigger man?" Does Jeff want to present himself to the masses as such? Or one who hides in a cave? Does he want to seem more mature and open minded and tolerant? By ignoring it, he will appear conceded
@@lukehanson_he didn’t watch the video, he saw the title of the video and because he’s been in the same church as Jeff he knew what he was doing!! Bless your heart!!
@@islandgirl4954 Honestly, does that sound like a good approach? Imagine if an Evangelical responded to something you said without even listening to you because "I've listened to many Mormons before and already know what you're going to say?" It's common Christian courtesy to listen before responding.
This is straight 🔥 fire! The truth of the gospel lives on, in those that believe in the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints! ❤ I pray 🙏🏻 those in darkness will turn to the light 🕯️ of Christ and find the peace and love 💞 they are truly looking for. When you attend church and you don't have the restored gospel, you and your family are missing out on the fullness of God's blessings for you and your children! Eternal families is truly amazing,so many blessings Heavenly Father wants to give to his children! The gospel is a true 🎁🎁🎁🎁 to all the world 🌎!
Jeff’s teaching are extremely confusing and false and anything but clear. As a past member of another Church prior to the LDS faith Jeff’s is completely confusing and teaches false doctrine on any level. He knows what he is doing and his focus shouldn’t be on the Lords Chirch, the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints but on what he believes. He only focuses on the LDS church because he doesn’t believe in its teachings, so he should move on. Heck if I will decide to create a channel that just focuses on Jeff’s and his congragation cause that would be Just wrong and un Christ like. We believe in letting people believe what they want to believe. Shouldn’t wast your time going around bashing other religions and doing it in such a Nice cleaver way. People are having to respond to JEFFS because of the false hoods being spoken that’s only reason. If he wants to preach what he believes create a channel, focus on it and forget about the LDS church, why wast time on a church he Jeff’s doesn’t even believe in in first place. This makes it obvious what he is doing. No I’ll towards Jeff for sure just seems silly wast time on something you don’t believe in. Blessings you all. @@user-tz3zl1kr7r
Is evangelicalism coming into the LDS Church? For example, Hello Saints broadcast. Haven’t members of the LDS Church, opened their arms, and embraced that evangelistic programming? Evangelism believes there is no need for baptism, no need for the restored church. Look at the number of subscribers, mostly Saints? Evangelism is an easy christianity, and Hello Saints puts an appealing face on it. Can we support the Lord’s work, and evangelism at the same time? Matthew 12:25 … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to destruction.
"God's way" is what God says in the Bible. I think what David is trying to say is that the Bible (God's word) clearly says you need to be baptized. David is trying to help correct a false belief. But sadly, I fear, Pator Jeff isn't humble enough to accept correction.
Thanks David. Christ was baptized to fulfill all righteousness, even though He was perfect. I'm so glad you joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
I saw that Jeff had a new video, and I refused to watch it. I was just telling my husband that I would only watch YOUR reaction to it. Well said. What a great video, full of passion and truth. Thank you!! I hope more and more people see YOUR videos. It's common sense, and Jeff's stance on baptism is unbiblical, as you said. Baptism is a saving ordinance, just as you perfectly described in the many scriptures you referenced. It makes so much sense. Jeff is preaching the philosophies of man, mingled with scripture. Again, thank you. Keep it up!! ❤️
Jeff’s videos create so much confusion and on the verge of bazaar and I am glad you do not watch them. I exhaustively kept correcting his teachings against the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints but finally had to put my energy other places but glad to see so many on You Tube now correcting him.

I am so thankful for Joseph Smith and that he outlined our Saviors Doctrine in the 4th article of faith which we can read in 3 Nephi from our Lord Himself.
So grateful that you’re willing to call out Pastor Jeff. He seems to me to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Sincere, I believe so. But he knows what he’s doing, that’s for sure. Love your sweet testimony David😊
🔥 I think my greatest fear here is that there will be “Holier than thou” peeps commenting about how David is being so mean…. Being emphatic about truth isn’t mean, nor is it evil. I quite enjoyed the enthusiasm. I wish more people felt this passionate about the gospel and defending the faith.
AGREED!! Someone needs to stand up to the fact that he is purposely trying to pull ppl away! It’s like Korihor! We MUST stand up for truth and righteousness!
Acts 2:14 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Peter’s testimony, truth spoken with love. Which he wouldn’t deny. Which testimony he sealed with his with his blood.
You have such passion David for sharing truth! Once enlightened by the truth of Jesus Christ and HIS gospel and HIS true church on the earth, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, with its true doctrine, and divine authority, how can we not be passionate about it?!! . We just want others to come to the truth and light of our Savior Jesus Christ as we know it! We want them to have what we have. Ultimately underlying our passion to share truth is love for others. We know we are EACH AND EVERY ONE a child of God. We love them as our brothers and sisters. We want others to see out of the blindness Satan has over them and come to the truth, light, and love of our Savior Jesus Christ!
I love these video, I don’t get tired of them! I have told many people about them. It inspires me to be so much more grateful for these truths that came from throne of God! I love the passion it bring me much joy. Thx David
You are absolutely right about baptism!! Satan of course wants everyone to believe that baptism is optional or really not required, which keeps men from the start of the covenant path and does not allow the Holy Ghost to enter their lives and guide them.
All we can do is speak truth by the power of the Holy Ghost, love, and pray for all those who are lost. God has a glorious plan and we need to follow him and walk in the light of his everlasting gospel.
Brother David, I love your passion for God and Christ! The doctrines of Christ and His Father are clear in the Bible; by the time moveable text was available most were illiterate and only could listen to what their leadership force-feed them. By the 16th century, so much falsehood was well-entrenched with deep political and government ties. Thus, with the establishment of the Constitution's First Amendment, free men could worship as they wished without establishing a national religion. Although, secularism is quickly becoming the religion of the ruling elite. I spent my mission serving people in the South who, like the aggressive reformers, attacked us in every way possible. Thankfully I was able to spend an hour or so every morning studying and I gained such a strong testimony of the NT because as I read in context rather than only seeing a few verses, I could see the true gospel enshrined in only one place: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I was so glad to be able to serve the Lord and teach His true gospel. Keep up the good work.
Thank you David for giving such an articulated and heart felt pleading for the need to follow the words of the Bible and how The Church of Jesus Christ has been restored in our day. When Christ talks about wailing and gnashing of teeth -- it will be the lukewarm members of the gospel who were not valiant in their Testimony of Jesus Christ and many of the Evangelicals who have followed unauthorized preachers that teach so many of the "Inherited Lies" that have been passed down since the Apostasy. It is so obvious that Baptism is required for those who have reached the age of accountability and that it is a mockery to baptize infants and little children. Please keep up the good work of defending the faith. (the song you sang today was one of your best). It was an honor meeting you in Bountiful a few months ago. God Bless --
Brother David, you put it well months ago recognizing a wolf in sheep's clothing in Pastor Jeff. I must admit he reminds me of the very handsome and attractive person of Satan in the Garden enticing others into doubt and transgression. In the Garden, Satan's clever plan turned out to benefit God's plan. In the case of Jeff, perhaps the same will happen...but I'll not leave my flocks or my faith and testimony of The Church and my Savior open to his smiling face and his wiles. God bless you and your courage in calling out Jeff's perceived intention, that is to rescue and "save" Latter-day Saints.
David, you are so humble and have an amazing soul. I hope that your pleads to Jeff are heard. I will put him in prayer for he saints sake. Thank you again for being so open {truth} we all should learn to speak up for truths.❤😊
My respect and love for you increases with every single message you share - your testimony is so powerful in reaching so many because of your vast knowledge from diligently searching in the desert of evangelism for so long. May Father bless you and carry your words far and wide in thus important work of sharing the truth of Christ. Much love and many blessings. I don’t know that your words and the spirit can reach the heart of Pastor Jeffs but I hope for his and his family’s sake they will.
See if that good martyr's temple work has been done, and we can accomplish that for him and his dear wife and children. Very compelling story. Thank you for sharing.
Oh my heart! ❤❤❤❤ You are so amazing! ✨I felt the Spirit so strong✨ ❤️🙌🏻🔥 Thanks so much for calling him out! I hope he responds! God Bless You! ❤️🙏🏼 I love you even more!
I love David. I love Pastor Jeff. Pastor Jeff looks to be about 40 years old. Which of them was more anti-LDS at that age? Don't give up on Pastor Jeff. Our prayers will be answered, in God's time. Jeff will come all the way unto Christ. Give him the grace of Jesus Christ.
Maybe. Maybe not. I wouldn't bet on it. Bro. David was not brainwashed at some "bible college" to get a degree in professional preaching for money. $$$$
David has said he wasn't ever anti LDS. He was told that we weren't Christian so he never looked into the church. I think he said negative things about us, but it was more from a sense of not knowing much about us.
@@crazyaboutcards David said he was among the protesters at Temple Square during General Conference years ago. If that's not anti-LDS, what would you like to call it?
Jeff isn't trying to join our church though. He's made that clear many, many times. The people believing he will eventually "see the light" are deceiving themselves
@@realtomtomeny I would call it being a Christian who was ignorant about our church. He was actively looking for what we have. Obviously he heard things among the Christians about us. He didn't know much and didn't give us much thought at all. We were like an annoying fly, he just brushed us off. He didn't even want to talk to us. Antis are actively seeking to bring down the church and it's members. You're comparing apples and oranges. Pastor Jeff is a great person. He is "all in" where he's at. And that's fine. He had his agency and he's happy. Cool. I think there's always a chance he could change his mind, because I believe that about everyone. But it takes desire to know the truth, and he's not one bit interested in sincerely asking God the questions he needs to ask. He won't even recognize that we believe in Jesus and that we aren't going to hell. It is completely obvious when you watch him. He is crafting his words to lead us to question our doctrine and our faith. Be awake. Spend time reading the scriptures or watching conference instead of Hello Saints. Pray for Pastor Jeff. If enough of us do, maybe his heart will be softened. But if we all watch his channel, we're just making him money and spending our time unwisely. If you feel the spirit watching his videos, then you're experiencing something different that what I am.🤷♀️
David, that was an AWESOMELY AMAZING video. The Spirit was strong as it testified to me of your words! May God bless and keep you ‘til we meet again. Like MANY (supposed) wise preachers of the “Gospel”, these words come to mind - “Ever learning but NEVER coming to a knowledge of the TRUTH”, But I pray every day they will. God’s Will be done!
I have no issue with other people's faith and beliefs, but when Jeff moved to Utah with the agenda of rescuing people from the Latter-Day Saint "cult", well that really stunk and he has crossed the line. Then he came to our general conference and later in his video disagreed with what our prophet and apostles said. Well, Jeff is no better than the evangelistic nay sayers that stand on the corner hurling abuse at the Latter-Day Saints. David, ask him whether or not he believes if the Latter-Day Saints are Christian. 😊❤️🙏🇦🇺
Thank you brother David. After watching pastor jeffs video i was horrified to see how many lds fans of jeff were just lapping up his teaching against baptismal regeneration. What does it mean to be saved? Does it mean to have your sins forgiven? To be regenerated and made spiritually alive after once being spiritually dead in our sins? Mark 1 says we are baptized unto repentence for the remission of sins. This is why 1 peter 3 says baptism now saves us. Pastor jeff read 1 peter 3 and said that, taken in context, this scripture is teaching that it is Christ's ressurection that saves us, not baptism. But as you pointed out so expertly, Romans 6 teaches that baptism is what unites us to christ in both his death and ressurection. If one tries to call out this false teaching in his comment section they simply get shadow banned. Jeff is not teaching Jesus Christ's doctrine. People are being led astray.
@@nonrepublicrat😂😂😂. You can’t be serious. A Bible college degree gives him power to know God’s truth? 🤦🏽♀️That’s the problem right there. You can only know God’s truth by the Holy Spirit, not a Bible college degree!!! Any other way is dangerous. Which of Jesus Apostles went to Bible College? Which of the Prophets went to Bible College. All throughout the Bible Truth is taught only by way of the Holy Ghost. To claim Bible college as the litmus test is to fall prey to the deceptions of Satan. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees who believed they had higher authority of the truth because they were scholars. Jeff was taught the philosophies and doctrines of men who misinterpreted God’s words. Jeff preaches a new gospel as from this dispensation Baptism was a key component and essential in Christianity. I was shocked to learn that pastors are preaching against Baptism. That is Blasphemous. Though Jesus was without sin, he got Baptized to be the example to us. When you don’t have the true spirit of God, you cannot know his truth. Satan is ready to deceive those who are spiritually blind.
David you are amazing. Thank you so much. I have been pondering the commitment of the church to baptism - we have 73,000 missionaries who have one job: find and baptise those who desire to be bound to Christ. We all know we will keep very few of these people, many of them will leave the church very rapidly but we commit so much of our time, effort and treasure to this purpose. We (obviously) do not expect that many of these people will produce much fruit - or continue in the church, or take any additional ordinances - but it is SO IMPORTANT that we do it anyway. Think about that. Ponder how serious the Lord is, to get this essential ordinance out to ALL PEOPLE. In addition we commit as much time, effort, and treasure to finding and baptising the DEAD. There is NO CHURCH that takes this responsibility as seriously as the true, restored Church of Jesus Christ, of Latter Day Saints.
All LDS baptismal fonts are built below ground level. It’s symbolizes burying your sins and being born again as a disciple of Christ. . There’s a lot no one explained to me when I was 8, but I felt the Spirit. I used to wish for a do-over when I understood better. But it’s okay because we renew those covenants every week at sacrament meeting when we worthily take the sacrament. Heavenly Father and Jesus have taken such good care to make our way sure. Just keep on the path.
Pastor Jeff believes his own version of truth, you can't help these people. My brother is anti-Mormon and he is the same he has his own version of truth.
Pastor Jeff is asleep...He dosen't know the Father. All he cares about is just his version of Jesus. So hes not even teaching the original gospel of Jesus Christ. I am disturbed by his teaching that there is no need for baptism by proper authority.
It seems to be an epidemic. So many seem to think they can create their own truth... They fail to realize that there is such a thing as objective truth. Truth is truth outside of how we choose to believe, and it's our job to be humble enough to find it. It's very sad. 🥺
Why are so many debunking LDS? If it was the truth it should be so easy to tear down. Smith said there was people in the North Pole in a hole shaped like a kettle, you were going to come out and go through the temple in Eden. There is many things said by the leaders that didn’t happen and probably won’t happen.
@@kylethedalek 🤔 That's new to me (a lifetime member of the Latter-Day Church of Jesus Christ) but you're right, these are just men who are not speaking prophetically 100% of the time. Same is true for every prophet throughout history, the only difference is most was so long ago we don't have those "stories" documented. Only legitimate scripture. Furthermore there are many examples of awful behavior by "men of god" Satan (and his own) does his dirty work and he's allowed to; the whole point of this probationary period we call mortality. I believe in the principal of equal opposition in all things. Those given great light often have to grapple with great evil. The Book of Mormon is a beautiful gift of enlightenment from our loving Eternal Father who has not left us alone in these last days. I encourage anyone who sees this to read it and do all the research they can in the spirit of searching for truth. That said let's not lose sight of #1 is; Jesus. 🤍
@@kylethedalek It isn't easy to tear down because the LDS teach that Jesus is risen up in the flesh so the LDS agree with the Bible account of 1 John. What you may not realize about Prophets of God is that if the people are not Faithful or obedient to the Lord's prophet and rebel against him then they won't received the promised blessings promised by the prophets. The Children of Israel did not meet the necessary requirements in order to be worthy to enter into the promised land when led by Moses So most of them did not sanctify themselves to enter into the promised land and went wandering in the wilderness being cursed for 40 years slowly dying by the local poisonous wildlife because they had rebelled and rejected Moses council. Does that make Moses a false prophet because the children of Israel had rejected his counsel and no longer listened to him? no. Its the same also with the Lord's latter-day prophets today. Reject their council, and end up crying like a pack of alley cats howling upon the fence with that awful out of tune din crying Fallen Prophet and making "olympic sized swimming pools of self-pity"" as Elder Maxwell had put it when he talked about disobedience to the prophets in Zion.
That is the very first step to plant THAT seed of Faith in Jesus Christ Our Savior … then to follow Him ever more…. into Baptism etc! …. and so so much more!! ❤😊
Jesus said to John who was so humbled and kind of hesitant to be the one baptizing our Savior. Jesus immediately put him in line to the necesity to obey the comantment and said to him: "Let the justice to be fulfilled". In other words, the divine Law pr justice has to be fulfill. Jesus himself walked miles to meet John to be baptized and gave us an example practicing and also on his own voice : " Let's comply with every justice" as said it to John the Baptist.The Book of Acts mentions how the Apostles and disciples went on baptizing and laying on the hands on them to be able to received the gift of the Holy Ghost.Of course becuase they have the real Authority to perform such. Other than that is opposite like Mr. Jeff and many other denominations who have their own version of the truth.
Baptism is the gate to exaltation in the Celestial Kingdom, the entry to the covenant path. It isn't necessary for "salvation" into one of the other kingdoms. See D&C 76:43-44, 2 Nephi 2:4. All but the sons of perdition are "saved" eventually into a kingdom with some level of glory. This is a marvelous effect of the Atonement that is often overlooked. The great message of the Restoration that was lost in the Apostasy is that THERE IS SO MUCH MORE!: exaltation, perfection, eternal family life, and becoming like God the Father, living in His presence, having His power and glory, inheriting all that he has, etc. etc. His love for us and His power to exalt us are so much greater than other religions can even imagine. So we are usually talking about exaltation when Protestants are only talking about salvation., although we sometimes use the words interchangeably. Perhaps we shouldn't! Anyone can get to the lower kingdoms without baptism. These are the kingdoms many would be perfectly happy in forever. It's all they expect. THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF "SALVATION" IS SO FAR BELOW WHAT THE RESTORED GOSPEL OFFERS THAT IT CAN'T BEGIN TO TOUCH IT. WE MUST MAKE THE DISTINCTION!!!
I think PJ calling us “Saints “is more of a name than a title. Of course I doubt that he would ever address that because he would have to truthfully admit he doesn’t think we’re saints, but he would probably say that it’s because that’s our name. And not a title.
I personally understand curiously studying some one's faith , but I know Pastor Jeff is trying to prove that what we believe is wrong, while acting like he's curious and smiling 😁 a lot. He comes across as being disingenuous, to me. He's trying to save us because he feels we're going to go to hell. Evangelicals and Calvary have always hated our church and I don't think they will ever stop preaching against us! And I sometimes get the feeling he's patronizing us, using us for clicks, filming in our chapels. There is definitely something behind his glaring fake over smile. In a video l heard him say people have left our church for his, so l think he's a 🦊 fox in the hen house 🏠
What I don't understand is that I've spoken to some evangelicals who believe in baptism as essential and other evangelicals who don't think it's needed
You are definitely describing Christ’s church and doctrine. I color code my scriptures. One color for the Godhead and another for Faith, Repentance and Baptism. Faith, Repentance and Baptism and then receiving the Holy Ghost is everywhere in the New Testament. It reminds me constantly of the 4th Article of Faith given us by the Prophet Joseph Smith. “We Believe that the First Principles and Ordinances of (Christ’s) Church are: First, FAITH in the Lord Jesus Christ, Second, REPENTANCE, Third, BAPTISM by Immersion for the remission of sins, Fourth, Laying on of Hands for the Gift of the Holy Ghost.” Keep holding up the banner of Truth David, you are doing a great work. I listened to a few Hello Saints from Jeff at first. He is nice, but I also came to realize that he isn’t truly seeking, he wants to teach members of The Church of Jesus Christ that they are wrong. As for this member, he made me realize exactly how true Christ’s Restored Church is as we have the foundation Christ established with Christ as the cornerstone and Apostles and Prophets and Ordinances that save us, and True Doctrine. God be Thanked for the Matchless Life of His Divine son and His true church on earth!!
I have the feeling that Jeff dosen't like you 😂😂😂😂😂 because your delivery is " i love Jeff and I'm sure he's a nice guy " then your words punched him in the face 😮 😂😂😂
Thank you...the holy spirit testifies of this truth deep in my heart. I also felt like saying, that if Jesus Christ said " come follow me ", then there must be a path to follow. It doesn't mean anybody's interpretation of that path. Jesus showed us the path by being baptized and setting forth the covenants and ordinances to bind us to him as followers. It's beautiful and wonderful!
It is true that we cannot decide how to interpret the scriptures on our own….truth is truth. Our opinions about it may or may not be true, but it’s actually the Holy Spirit who testifies of the truths, the principles of the gospel!! The Holy Spirit will tell us the true meaning of things. And if we listen, we are being honest in our hearts.
LOVE your 70s style directness and song... When you take up your guitar I hear testimony but ALSO remember my young hearing of that episode of Star Trek folk singing "Stepping Into (Heading Out) to Eden... YEAH BROTHER..." ;-)
David, I think the most beautiful teaching on why baptism is essential that we have in scripture, maybe apart from 2 Nephi 31, is found in Moroni 8 where he shares the teachings of his father, Mormon, on the wickedness of baptizing children. Because little children are innocent and incapable of realizing their need for repentance and obedience, he teaches it is an abomination before God to require them to be baptized. Then he explains this profound doctrine, 25 And the first fruits of repentance is baptism; and baptism cometh by faith unto the fulfilling the commandments; and the fulfilling the commandments bringeth remission of sins; 26 And the remission of sins bringeth meekness, and lowliness of heart; and because of meekness and lowliness of heart cometh the visitation of the Holy Ghost, which Comforter filleth with hope and perfect love, which love endureth by diligence unto prayer, until the end shall come, when all the saints shall dwell with God. The symbolism of of the water washing away our sins is obvious, but Paul’s teaching of crucifying the man of sin and descending in death with Christ so we can be raised to a newness of life is profound. As many have taught, true faith in Christ is always manifested by faithfulness. It’s our repentance and willingness to enter a covenant with God through baptism, followed by our sincere efforts to stay in covenant through sincere obedience that brings the cleansing and sanctifying power of the Holy Ghost into our lives. Preach on, brother.
Matthew ch 5 19. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Evangelicals and Calvary Church hate the Mormon faith and they always have and they teach classes against us! The Mormon church never preaches against anyone or any children!
I have a prediction. He will answer the Saints question and ignore this one about Baptism. He will say something like: I just call you Saints because that is what you call yourselves…who am I to say otherwise (in his best woke empathetic persona)
Hello again David, Thank you for defending the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. I am grateful for your deep knowledge of the Old and New Testaments. I learn great and marvelous things from each of your videos. I started ignoring Pastor Jeff for continually using the word "mainstream". Since when was mainstream thinking accurate? The world isn't flat, nor does the sun revolve around the earth. Adding to the Bible at the Council of Nicea, and many Council's afterward, falls into the same category. As do the 5 Sola's. In my opinion, the sinner’s prayer is another way to have what God the Father prevented Adam and Eve from having in the Garden of Eden - living forever in their sins. All they had to do was reach out and partake of the fruit of the Tree of Life (without permission). Claiming that salvation is assured by saying a few words (why not ring a bell or doing a proscribed set of dance steps) seems to me to be very similar thinking........ it attempts to make not only baptism unnecessary but also keeping of any of the rest of the Commandments of God optional. Thanks for all you do. Best wishes always,
Poor Jeff is getting the brunt of all the steam built up from years of frustration caused by false doctrine. 😂 It's a slam dunk Elder Alexander, but maybe turn the heat down a little bit. 😬😅😬 Believe me I understand the righteous anger and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing you express the thoughts of my own heart. But try to remember... Christlike. 🕊️💪🏼🕊️ Again, I completely understand the passion, this is not a trite thing. 🤍
I just don’t understand how people can so love to listen to Pastor Jeff and use their time in this way, when they literally could be listening to all the general conference talks that have ever been given since 1970! Go use your time listening to true prophets and Apostles. It’s astounding to listen to those old talks and hear those brethren prophesy of the near future and then to be living it just as they said it would happen! It’s really cool!
It is perplexing to me that so many (not all) in today’s Christianity cannot grasp the simple message in Hebrews 5: 9 “And being made perfect, he (Jesus) became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY him.” Obedience has nothing to do with “earning” salvation, as some may believe. This accusation that we are trying to “earn” is a distraction tactic to the real reasons that we must obey. Obedience has everything to do with preparing oneself to receive the free gift of salvation that only Christ Jesus can and has paid for! Without obedience, there is no understanding of the things of God! Job taught that to DEPART from evil (repentance) is understanding. David declared that he understood more than the ancients because he KEPT the precepts of God. It is no wonder that Satan would minimize works and obedience, and call them “non-essential”, since that false belief would and does perpetuate the lack of Spiritual understanding. It is Satan’s greatest ploy for his purpose to deceive.
I listened to a couple of Jeff's videos. Two words kept coming to my mind to describe his approach... "sophistry" and "Korihor". I described how the Evangelicals function as businesses to my brother and his comment was "priestcraft".
YES Korihor!! That’s what I have said! Even if he believes what he is doing it still doesn’t make it right! It’s VERY wrong to pull ppl away from Jesus Christs True church!
He uses what we call Anti Mormon tactics, very cleaver and cunning and knows exactly what he is doing in his videos to target inactive sand attract more ex members of the Church. He isn’t as blind to things as many would believe and many LDS members get weird ideas that he is honestly investigating the Church ha ha I dealt and contended many times with men and women such as himself and they offer an appearance of Nice but there intentions are other wise. They hate the Lords Church and dwell in a place they think is full of light, but there is no light in them.
I had asked Jeff what evangelical has the proper authority to omit baptism by immersion by one having proper authority? No answer. I had on my mind while watching, that the apostate view was on display and the justifications and reason why he doesn't see it as necessary brought me to wonder how he has the authority to decide that and when did that occur. But I realize this is embedded in many ignoring proper priesthood authority and covenants and ordinances needed. It is contrary to the Bible. I hope his heart will be softened to learn the truth
It's good to hear "Hello! It's David again" once more. I'm beginning to agree with a lot this new opinion forming around Pastor Jeff. When his channel started out it was interesting because an Evangelical actually seemed to take an interest in Latter-day Saints rather than run them off and it appeared to be that at the start, but as time goes on, it's less about that and more about convert the Mormons. But, you have to give it to him, he's very cunning and subtle about it but the more time goes on, it's becoming more and more about seeking out the weaker Latter-day Saints and really causing them to question their faith. You've got to be a strong Latter-day Saint around him. The first big tip off to me was when he showed the video of the woman that attended a sacrament meeting. He sold it as a woman supporting his slogan, but as you watched the video, he was calm and cool with how she was reacting, her intent was to convert the Mormons and he didn't have looks of puzzlement or questioning but smiling like a pat on the back. He was proud of her. His channel started out much differently but now, yeah, it's apparent he's out to cause Latter-day Saints to question their faith. When he prayed to go to Utah, he didn't pray to understand the Mormons better, he prayed asking if it was God's will to go to Utah to save them. His learning about the Church is deteriorating, his reading the Book of Mormon is gone, and he's wanting to play the kind Evangelical with the intent to win Latter-day Saints over with the kindness effect. Problem is, I think they found statistically that Latter-day Saints leave Christianity more than convert to other faiths because Christian doctrine, unless your ignorant, really doesn't make sense. Christians I know of still don't understand the Trinity and that's a problem for them. Most Latter-day Saints go to spiritualist and a lot go atheist, so Pastor Jeff isn't helping at all, he's running good people out of the faith altogether. That's pretty slick. If you watch the channel MORMON BOOK REVIEWS, the guy interviews another guy who was Evangelical and organized a mission to Utah. He'd known Latter-day Saints growing up in California and was even meeting with the Sister Missionaries, but he went on a mission to Utah and describes the methods he used to convert Mormons and he states he was successful, like a Korihor, but then he started to question why he was doing what he was doing, got caught turning on what he originally went down there for but ended up meeting with the missionaries more and was baptized and is now getting ready to serve a mission with the actual authority to proclaim the gospel so, Jeff is doing the same thing. They told him the field is ripe in Utah and he's working on his Utah buddies with the kindness approach so, while it started out good, his channel seems to be progressively leaving that behind for "Hello Saints, let's see if I can change your mind." He's said that his Evangelical friends in Utah told him to leave Missouri to go to Utah for a unique kind of work so, he's taking their word and is gonna work on Latter-day Saints it seems and one day, like Korihor, you get to stand before God where he asks: Why did you try to turn my children against me? You get to account for that so, yeah, David knows that side, he knows their methods, the guy has 47 years experience and Hello Saints is changing. If there's a comment in his section that is anti-Evangelical, he deletes it. If it causes you to question LDS doctrine, it stays. His faith can't be made to look bad and he checks it regularly. I'm certain he's carefully watching David's videos like this and combing the comments section as well. Saints Unscripted? No. Stick of Joseph? Yes
@@loridavis7086Oh, man.... I'm sorry. What I meant by that was Saints Unscripted isn't one to look into what's going on with other channels and get caught up in Hello Saints..... Political kind of stuff, though David Snell is an excellent missionary with a good approach to working with Jeff McCullough and is probably the most likely to "convert" Jeff, if that's possible but won't. Stick of Joseph's UA-cam channel are good guys but they're one of the few, along with Greg Madsen at CWIC MEDIA, also a good dude, who are looking out for Jeff and probably tipping him off. I used to think Greg Madsen and Jeff McCullough would be a good duo for UA-cam content, but I'd rather see Greg and David talk more, now, or see if Jeff McCullough can stand up to David here, I don't think he can, I think he's afraid David can dismantle him, he likely sees David as a demon possessed man that deceived him and led him to the LDS Church, David clearly feels otherwise. But, yeah, Saints Unscripted aren't going to go out of their way to see what trouble is brewing for Hello Saints, but Stick of Joseph does and have openly admitted to seeing the controversy that has been speer-headed by David whose been on Jeff's side and knows his methods as well as the young man interviewed by MORMON BOOK REVIEWS who was Evangelical and pretty much gave away Jeff's tactic. Jeffs intent to lead Latter-day Saints away by getting on their good side and building trust with curiosity, that's now. That's the Amalachiah tactic: "Come down off the mountain..... No? How about we meet half way and I'll let you bring your guards with you (I'm moving to Utah where I am now outnumbered and the minority)".
Jesus is our Great Exemplar,. He was baptized the... 1. Proper way...immersion not springkling, for there were much water there 2. Proper age..He was not baptized when He was an infant, 3. Proper authority, of all the people in Jordan River, why did He came to John the Baptist? It was written in the Holy scriptures that it is solemn mockery to the atonement of Christ if innocent little children are baptized...
Jeff's authority is not the Bible. His authority is his divinity degree that he paid for. If he turns away from it he has to accept he was lied to and paid for it. He will loose his authority as a pastor. It's too much for him to accept.
I couldn’t agree more. This issue will not be only Pastor Jeff’s! There are a lot of people like him out there that don’t want to accept the truth because they’re afraid that they will loose their authority according to to their title.
How can Jeff believe that Baptism isn't necessary when Christ was Baptized as an example of what we must do , though Christ didn't need Baptism, he showed us the way. Jeff doesn't understand what ordinances are. "Else why are they then Baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all"" The early saints understood ordinances. Jeff and the most of the Christian world doesn't.
I listened to Pastor Jeff few times... the Spirit warned me and told me do not listened to him. He's not listening by the Spirit at all.
So grateful for my conversion to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ❤❤
I have too. I felt it right away. I’ve talked to other members who justify listening to him and they said this: well it’s good to support someone who does try to be a listener instead of someone spewing hate about the church. Nope, jeff has proven that he tries to bring down the doctrine. Nope. I’m glad you see it!
Ditto. Same with me. Steer clear of this guy.
I hope people will be careful, and discern what they allow themselves to watch, flaxen cords to chains.
Yes....jeff in a fake imitation...i discerned that on his 1st vid.....kicked his theology to the trash can....from NZ
Same
David. THIS is the stuff. THIS. THIS is the deep down truth people have got to give an ear to. Love every bit of this video. Hoorah for Israel forever and always. The prophet has warned us about giving an ear to people like Jeff on the internet. Saints who pay attention to Jeff. Don’t justify it in any way. It destroys the spirit more than you can recognize. David, thank you for your words. I will say it again. God called to you, you listened with a humble heart. We have gained a very strong Saint. I thank the lord for you strong saints out there.
Brother David, you remind me of myself after I came into the Gospel. I handed out Books of Mormon to all my family, I tried to tell them the Good News and they thought I was crazy. 37 years later they just roll their eyes and tell me they love me. They see how the Gospel changed my whole life for the better, though they don't embrace it themselves. At least they don't call me crazy. God bless you Brother. 🙏 ❤🙏
My wife and family attacked me. lol
Thank you so much! I stopped watching Jeff when he read & dissected parts of the Book of Mormon. There was no true curiosity happening. It all felt false.
Why are we all so easily delighted when other Christians talk nice to us? I fear we're too easily flattered away.
I love you & your videos because you love & speak the Truth!
Thank you so much! God Bless you!
He is in the Book of Mormon; Korihor....but he believes his stuff. It's ingrained. It's fancy words and flattering. And he is very, very, nice. Not for me. 50 years in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. When the truth pricks you, you can see the fake and vain babbling.
I hope we can strengthen the vulnerable .
I totally agree and I even commented on Pastor Jeff’s page when I caught the same thing. I stopped watching him because of it. He’s moving to Utah to try and pull members away. I truly believe this. I liked the idea that at first I thought he was doing something good. I don’t believe that anymore. Too bad
Jeff’s an evangelical? He believes no need for baptism = no need for a restored church, right?
I felt the same. He skipped over the wonderful things.
Never stop denouncing deception David! I loved your boldness and courage in this video declaring the truth of the gospel.
Problem is when we don't stop denouncing deception and continue to oppose the devil the devil responds by causing difficulties with our own repentance process on the Covenant Path with the temple.
I love how you know the scriptures so well. Your 47 years of devoted study is paying off! God bless you every day ❤
That's is why Jesus turned Paul into an Apostle; even though Paul killed Christians, he was very well educated on the scriptures, and God turned David Alexander because of his knowledge of the scriptures.
David, your prior churches didn't baptize you because they did not have authority, and deep down they were stump with the ordinance of baptism. If baptism was not necessary, then why did Jesus Christ travel 40 miles to received baptism by John the Baptist who had the authority to perform baptism? Thank you David Alexander and welcome to our church! I'm happy to hear how you can see clearly now....now that you are part of the restored gospel.
Christ just like the walking and sightseeing because it’s a beautiful 40 miles.
😂..lol
Greetings brother David, it could have been more loving, when you humbly exhort brother Jeff M tha it is not coincidental that he's now in Utah, my testimony is that, Heavenly Father draws him there to feel and see God's Power and Glory.
Just like all of us, that it is not coincidence that we are here in your site, I know Heavenly Father led us here to be enlighten of His Power and Glory (Love).
Baptism is necessary even if you have faith for Cornelius knew that he had to go to an Apostle of the Lord who had the authority
in order to be baptized even though Cornelius had an angle speak to him face to face. Faith alone isn't enough to enter into the
Father's kingdom. He had to go to one who had the authority to give him the ordinance..
The reformers did not have the authority to baptize either . Though they were brave and wonderful and helped made the way for the restored gospel of Jesus Christ to be brought back I’m wondering where the reformers would have their authority ? And did they kill the reformers for baptizing or for not believing in the Trinity ? Or just for not believing what they taught or was it not killing for not believing in the Trinity ?? No one had proper authority until the gospel was restored . Jeff feels there was never a falling away .
Your broadcast was so enlightening. Those reminders of 1000’s who have died been tortured and unjustly incarcerated underscores how evil the adversary is and how determined he is to destroy what comes from our Savior. You became more excited than I’ve ever seen as you talked about something that is now so near and dear to your heart AND RIGHTLY SO!! You have spent your life in search of the TRUTH and you understand how precious these truths are.
Pastor Jeff is a wolf in sheep’s clothing and telling people they don’t need baptism is a damnable doctrine of the devil!! Leading people astray and confusing those who are tender in gospel is something he will one day answer for.
Thank you David for being the voice of truth crying in this worldly wilderness of lies deceit and confusion!!
Wow
I wish Jeff, could imagine his conversation at the judgement bar. As we all should.
Thanks David for your powerful testimony. I was once saved at the age of 12 at a evangelical revival meeting. I was truly moved by the Spirit. Then a strange thing happened about a year later. I was moved again by the Spirit to give my heart to Christ at another revival meeting. How could this be, I asked myself? I believe that the Spirit was preparing me for the truth. Another year passed when the missionaries knocked on our door. Shortly thereafter, my parents, siblings and I were baptised into the Saviour's restored church by the proper priesthood. After 53 years we remain faithful. Christ commanded his Apostles to.. ¶ "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" can it be any simpler to believe and follow. PJ your name is on the Temple prayer roll.
What a wonderful way to look at it. If we are willing, and sincerely, desiring truth, God will prepare us for more truth.
David,
You never cease to amaze me! You have an amazing gift to articulate the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is one of the “gifts of the Spirit” mentioned in the Doctrine of Covenants section 46.
The Church is True!!!
David, I love your passion and clarity! The thing is, Pastor Jeff cannot believe that baptism is truly essential for salvation, because he doesn’t believe in vicarious baptism for those who haven’t had an opportunity for baptism on earth. The requirement of baptism without Heavenly Father providing a way for all His children to receive this ordinance, would be grossly unfair to 99.999% of His children-and Jeff knows it.
Only the Latter-day Saints really understand the incomprehensible grace of the Father and the Son. The grace that is offered to God’s children is so much greater than Pastor Jeff could ever know, unless he (like all of us) repents and humbles himself to this reality.
I have to comment again! David your song touched me deeply. Brought tears to my eyes thinking of the passion you have for the gospel. The passion I have for it too. That it is felt by others. Love you so much brother David. So does my entire family. I’m listening again while I paint😂💕
I’m trying to love pastor Jeff but it is hard. Thank you 🙏 brother Alexander for trying to protect the lords church.
Don't try to love Jeff....you are not required to love those who are in the great and spacious building.
The second commandment says to love your neighbour as yourself. It includes everyone. ;)
Pastor Jeff understands the teachings of Christ differently and we might not agree that in everything he teaches but we still need to love him, the way that God loves him. Loving someone (the Savior’s way) is not always easy but with Christ’ help, it is easier.
David, this Church of Jesus Christ needs your testimony & your faith as much as those not of our faith. You were born for such a time as this. 1:09:12
It makes sense why pastor Jeff would say baptism isn’t necessary. You know how much work and organization would be required of him and his church if he believed baptism is necessary to enter the Kingdom of God? The baptism of the dead would be a work he wouldn’t and couldn’t organize because frankly they’re not guided by priesthood authority or divine revelation. This is the whole purpose of temples; to help the dead with their salvation by providing a way for them to be baptized, among other ordinances. They don’t even call themselves saints. This title was given to the members of the original Church of Jesus Christ and the proof is in the New Testament in the letters of Paul to the saints. These truths just add to my testimony that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the true church and Kingdom of God on earth today. The organization of said church is perfect even if we as members aren’t. Thank you brother David for opening your mouth and speaking truth while denouncing deception!
I have heard other evangelicals say that baptism is a "requirement" and others say that all we need is faith and baptism isn't needed. Not sure which evangelical theology to look into
@@GwPoKo yes, this is precisely what David talks about when he says there are over 40,000 christian denominations because they can’t agree on core principles do to their own interpretations; “having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof.” I don’t mean to come off as critical of them, because I’d rather they believe in Christ in their own way (even if it be wrong) than to not believe in God at all.
There is still much good that comes from it, even if it lends to more chaos and confusion.
But the truth must “come forth boldly and nobly”.
I saw that video of pastor Jeff minimizing baptism 😢 I was heart broken.
I call on every LDS MEMBER that has watched his videos on UA-cam to pray🙏 for him and his family so he can wide open his eyes 👀 and see clearly and change his ❤ .
If he has a change of heart to the truth of the gospel he will be a great Saint and powerful missionary preaching the gospel to every corner of the world. And to the kids in India, North Korea, China and the Middle East will know the truth Gospel of Jesus Christ.
And that my brothers and sisters will be a Great True Miracle.🙏❤❣
His eyes are wide open to what he is doing. He has been doing this for along time. Most of his followers are ex members of the LDS church. He is very clear and knows EXACTLY what he is doing. He can use prayers for sure but he does clearly knows what he is doing and preaching and teaching false doctrine and creating and teaching confusion, even non members of the Church know how confusing he is when he tries to teach things, it’s incredible.
I went to a Hutterite Colony while on my mission 30 years ago. They invite all to come eat with them. I served my mission in Alberta Canada. There were a number of colonies in Alberta. Thank you again David for teaching and sharing with me! I am So thankful for your videos!
I am from Southern Alberta - the Hutterite people are awesome!!
My grandfather was great friends with one of the colonies. They were always so good to him.
Thank you, David, for your sincere, powerful and unwavering testimony of the truth! Yes, baptism by immersion by those who have the Lord’s authority is essential to salvation. Power-on dear brother! You are not alone and will be blessed. Thank you for your wonderful way, for not being afraid to show others The Way. Jesus Christ is The Way. The true Church of Jesus Christ has been restored! Keep on sharing your testimony with all. May our Heavenly Father’s choicest blessing be yours now and always!
Somebody Please send this to Jeff to watch. Absolutely incredible video. Thank you David
If baptism isn’t required then why did Jesus Christ be baptized? He was perfect and didn’t need a remission of his sins. He did it to show the example that we absolutely need to be baptized. It is one of the most important ordinances of the gospel Christ set the example Why wouldn’t you want to follow that and do what the Savior shows us to do ? It is totally essential!
Did you know that the Catholic Church actually apologized to us for requiring baptism for members leaving to join the Catholic Church? They don’t require it for Protestants leaving their church. Our leaders smiled and said no offense taken… we also require baptism for all who choose to join the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints ❤
But it was a sign of a mending relationship that they apologized.
We are blessed to have the restored gospel and a much clearer picture of how to live a life filled with peace. Repentance is key… as we all fail ❤
I do love your passion… it never ceases to inspire me.
Jeff had the wonderful experience of learning a tremendous amount of the false doctrines of men in 4 years of paid ministry "bible college".
Thank you for this message, Brother David. You are super inspiring and motivating. I so much love every one of your messages. I hope everyone will LIKE this video.
That collage “Always learning, never coming to a knowledge of the truth”.
David, if anyone can help Pastor Jeff, it is YOU! I have prayed and hoped that he would feel the truth, but he seems to be hardened. The Book of Mormon I hoped would lead him to the truth, but he doesn't seem to feel the Spirit of this great work. I love you, David. This episode really touched my heart. We have no idea the suffering of those precious martyrs. I only hope if I had to stand for my faith by suffering, that the Lord would give me strength to do so. I must be true, as I know this work to be the true restored Church of Jesus Christ. ❤ Ida
Let us all united together in prayers for Jeff and the loving massage by David Alexander 🙏 and ♥️ 🙏
Unfortunately Jeff’s was fully aware of the Book Of Mormon and never had any ntentions good towards any of it, his whole thing is an act and he is very clearer. I analyzed his tactics, how he talks, subject matters and how he lured people in and acted like a friend of members of the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints and as if he was investigating the Church and I would see all these members of LDS Church believing all of his stuff and wishing him well and hoping he see the truth but in fact he already knew what he knew and his intent was to rob members of there faith. Most of his followers on You Tube are EX. Members of the Church. I’m glad people aren’t wasting their time there anymore. Blessings and hoping only the best for brother Jeff’s and not wishing any I’ll upon him but he is stuck with intentions of no good towards the Church.
Dear David, your appeal to truth, common sense, or even justice will fall on deaf ears with Pastor Jeff; Jeff is making money, he does not hold you in anything but contempt, but not so with me. I honor and revere your testimony, your courage to declare it.
He is not interested in knowing the truth, the truth that can set him free, free from his lust for money and for fame . We should submit his name to the Prayer Temple Roll.
In the book of Mormon, preaching for money is called priest craft! That is an evil thing, in the eyes of the Lord!
I have
I want to hold out for hope, I know LDS, we will keep praying.
Thank you David. If so called Pastor Jeff will hear your words, maybe the Holy Ghost will prick his heart and hopefully he and his wife will humble themselves to the truth.
We are so thankful for the missionary work that you are doing through the Holy Ghost that abides in you. We love you❣️♥️♥️
David had repeatedly said he won't watch pastor Jeff's videos. Why should Jeff listen to his?
@@lukehanson_ Jeff is replacing his curiosity with criticism. He deserves to be called out. His channel would be better if he listened to David's comments and took them into consideration. David has nothing to learn from Pastor Jeff. He's already been there.
@@lukehanson_It doesn't necessarily apply in this instance but so they say "If you want to be an example, you have to lead by example." Jeff is fearful. He'll say that it's to avoid negativity or avoid confrontation, but it's fear. Jeff has felt inside he knows what he needs to do, it's undeniable, but he doesn't want to listen. He's so set in his ways. He's thought about a conversation with David, but what is he to do when David convinces him? Being a Pastor is his job. I'd be terrified too, but if you knowingly go against it, you're accountable. He's afraid. Unless it works to his benefit, he won't do it. Most people would jump at an opportunity to flip a Mormon, younger groups HAVE tried but Jeff knows he can't walk out of this one alive. Still, I think Jeff knows who David is and IS keeping a careful eye on him because he knows David could dismantle his work, David's a threat so, yes, I think he is watching David's stuff as David apposes his efforts and David's viewers see what Hello Saints does. If Jeff were ignorant, he would all avoid it but, David knows Jeff's methods and that disrupts Jeff so, yes, I'm sure Stick of Joseph and CWIC MEDIA have told Jeff what's going on, and Jeff knowing what kind of a dent David could make, attacking Jeff's livlihood and his reputation, there's a competition now for who will listen to who.
But, with your statement, many would say "well who is the bigger man?" Does Jeff want to present himself to the masses as such? Or one who hides in a cave? Does he want to seem more mature and open minded and tolerant? By ignoring it, he will appear conceded
@@lukehanson_he didn’t watch the video, he saw the title of the video and because he’s been in the same church as Jeff he knew what he was doing!! Bless your heart!!
@@islandgirl4954 Honestly, does that sound like a good approach? Imagine if an Evangelical responded to something you said without even listening to you because "I've listened to many Mormons before and already know what you're going to say?" It's common Christian courtesy to listen before responding.
This is straight 🔥 fire! The truth of the gospel lives on, in those that believe in the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints! ❤
I pray 🙏🏻 those in darkness will turn to the light 🕯️ of Christ and find the peace and love 💞 they are truly looking for.
When you attend church and you don't have the restored gospel, you and your family are missing out on the fullness of God's blessings for you and your children! Eternal families is truly amazing,so many blessings Heavenly Father wants to give to his children! The gospel is a true 🎁🎁🎁🎁 to all the world 🌎!
Inspiring
I hope going forward people will understand Jeff’s teaching more clearly.
As saints we love and care for each other ( striving) . Stay on the path, God prepares great things for those who love him
Jeff’s teaching are extremely confusing and false and anything but clear. As a past member of another Church prior to the LDS faith Jeff’s is completely confusing and teaches false doctrine on any level. He knows what he is doing and his focus shouldn’t be on the Lords Chirch, the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints but on what he believes. He only focuses on the LDS church because he doesn’t believe in its teachings, so he should move on. Heck if I will decide to create a channel that just focuses on Jeff’s and his congragation cause that would be Just wrong and un Christ like. We believe in letting people believe what they want to believe. Shouldn’t wast your time going around bashing other religions and doing it in such a Nice cleaver way. People are having to respond to JEFFS because of the false hoods being spoken that’s only reason. If he wants to preach what he believes create a channel, focus on it and forget about the LDS church, why wast time on a church he Jeff’s doesn’t even believe in in first place. This makes it obvious what he is doing. No I’ll towards Jeff for sure just seems silly wast time on something you don’t believe in. Blessings you all. @@user-tz3zl1kr7r
Is evangelicalism coming into the LDS Church? For example, Hello Saints broadcast. Haven’t members of the LDS Church, opened their arms, and embraced that evangelistic programming? Evangelism believes there is no need for baptism, no need for the restored church. Look at the number of subscribers, mostly Saints? Evangelism is an easy christianity, and Hello Saints puts an appealing face on it. Can we support the Lord’s work, and evangelism at the same time? Matthew 12:25 … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to destruction.
Pastor Jeff, no hard feelings. You go ahead and worship God in your way and we'll worship God in His way.😊
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
"God's way" is what God says in the Bible. I think what David is trying to say is that the Bible (God's word) clearly says you need to be baptized. David is trying to help correct a false belief. But sadly, I fear, Pator Jeff isn't humble enough to accept correction.
I want to worship God, in his way.
"One Lord one faith one baptism". Oh, that sounds like a quote from the New Testament.
Thanks David. Christ was baptized to fulfill all righteousness, even though He was perfect. I'm so glad you joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Heb. 5:8-9 Tells us that Christ was made perfect by the things he suffered.
@@delbertchadwick1051 But that baptism was to "fulfill" all righteousness
Brother David, truth spoken with love for all, and to help protect the vulnerable . Thanks for standing up for the right.
I saw that Jeff had a new video, and I refused to watch it. I was just telling my husband that I would only watch YOUR reaction to it. Well said. What a great video, full of passion and truth. Thank you!! I hope more and more people see YOUR videos. It's common sense, and Jeff's stance on baptism is unbiblical, as you said. Baptism is a saving ordinance, just as you perfectly described in the many scriptures you referenced. It makes so much sense. Jeff is preaching the philosophies of man, mingled with scripture. Again, thank you. Keep it up!! ❤️
Thanks for your example of being discerning about what you watch.
Jeff’s videos create so much confusion and on the verge of bazaar and I am glad you do not watch them. I exhaustively kept correcting his teachings against the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints but finally had to put my energy other places but glad to see so many on You Tube now correcting him.
Is evangelism coming into the LDS church? Example, Hello Saints broadcast. Haven’t members of the LDS Church, opened their arms, and embraced that evangelistic programming? Evangelism believes there is no need for baptism, no need for a restored church. Look at the number of subscribers, mostly Saints?

David. I love your boldness. You inspire me.
Speaking the truth in love, and trying to protect the vulnerable.
I am so thankful for Joseph Smith and that he outlined our Saviors Doctrine in the 4th article of faith which we can read in 3 Nephi from our Lord Himself.
I pray the temple work has been done for those beautiful souls that died for the truth before the earth was ready for the restoration
So grateful that you’re willing to call out Pastor Jeff.
He seems to me to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Sincere, I believe so. But he knows what he’s doing, that’s for sure.
Love your sweet testimony David😊
🔥
I think my greatest fear here is that there will be “Holier than thou” peeps commenting about how David is being so mean….
Being emphatic about truth isn’t mean, nor is it evil.
I quite enjoyed the enthusiasm.
I wish more people felt this passionate about the gospel and defending the faith.
AGREED!! Someone needs to stand up to the fact that he is purposely trying to pull ppl away! It’s like Korihor! We MUST stand up for truth and righteousness!
Acts 2:14 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Peter’s testimony, truth spoken with love. Which he wouldn’t deny. Which testimony he sealed with his with his blood.
You have such passion David for sharing truth! Once enlightened by the truth of Jesus Christ and HIS gospel and HIS true church on the earth, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, with its true doctrine, and divine authority, how can we not be passionate about it?!! . We just want others to come to the truth and light of our Savior Jesus Christ as we know it! We want them to have what we have. Ultimately underlying our passion to share truth is love for others. We know we are EACH AND EVERY ONE a child of God. We love them as our brothers and sisters. We want others to see out of the blindness Satan has over them and come to the truth, light, and love of our Savior Jesus Christ!
I love these video, I don’t get tired of them! I have told many people about them. It inspires me to be so much more grateful for these truths that came from throne of God! I love the passion it bring me much joy. Thx David
You are absolutely right about baptism!! Satan of course wants everyone to believe that baptism is optional or really not required, which keeps men from the start of the covenant path and does not allow the Holy Ghost to enter their lives and guide them.
AND…. Christ was
baptized!! WHY?! He did it for an example for US ALL to follow!!!
Thank you Bro Alexander for standing up to a modern day Korihor!
All we can do is speak truth by the power of the Holy Ghost, love, and pray for all those who are lost. God has a glorious plan and we need to follow him and walk in the light of his everlasting gospel.
Wow
Brother David, I love your passion for God and Christ! The doctrines of Christ and His Father are clear in the Bible; by the time moveable text was available most were illiterate and only could listen to what their leadership force-feed them. By the 16th century, so much falsehood was well-entrenched with deep political and government ties. Thus, with the establishment of the Constitution's First Amendment, free men could worship as they wished without establishing a national religion. Although, secularism is quickly becoming the religion of the ruling elite.
I spent my mission serving people in the South who, like the aggressive reformers, attacked us in every way possible. Thankfully I was able to spend an hour or so every morning studying and I gained such a strong testimony of the NT because as I read in context rather than only seeing a few verses, I could see the true gospel enshrined in only one place: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I was so glad to be able to serve the Lord and teach His true gospel.
Keep up the good work.
It’s interesting for me how those Envangelical Pastors pays thousands to study theology and the Bible for years! And they still so confused.
I graduated from institute. That makes me just as much of a pastor as pastor Jeff lol
Ever learning, and never coming to a knowledge of the truth.
The little children by age twelve know more then most of them and it’s amazing to me.@@GwPoKo
Thank you David for giving such an articulated and heart felt pleading for the need to follow the words of the Bible and how The Church of Jesus Christ has been restored in our day. When Christ talks about wailing and gnashing of teeth -- it will be the lukewarm members of the gospel who were not valiant in their Testimony of Jesus Christ and many of the Evangelicals who have followed unauthorized preachers that teach so many of the "Inherited Lies" that have been passed down since the Apostasy. It is so obvious that Baptism is required for those who have reached the age of accountability and that it is a mockery to baptize infants and little children. Please keep up the good work of defending the faith. (the song you sang today was one of your best). It was an honor meeting you in Bountiful a few months ago. God Bless --
Brother David, you put it well months ago recognizing a wolf in sheep's clothing in Pastor Jeff. I must admit he reminds me of the very handsome and attractive person of Satan in the Garden enticing others into doubt and transgression. In the Garden, Satan's clever plan turned out to benefit God's plan. In the case of Jeff, perhaps the same will happen...but I'll not leave my flocks or my faith and testimony of The Church and my Savior open to his smiling face and his wiles. God bless you and your courage in calling out Jeff's perceived intention, that is to rescue and "save" Latter-day Saints.
David, you are so humble and have an amazing soul. I hope that your pleads to Jeff are heard. I will put him in prayer for he saints sake. Thank you again for being so open {truth} we all should learn to speak up for truths.❤😊
My respect and love for you increases with every single message you share - your testimony is so powerful in reaching so many because of your vast knowledge from diligently searching in the desert of evangelism for so long. May Father bless you and carry your words far and wide in thus important work of sharing the truth of Christ. Much love and many blessings.
I don’t know that your words and the spirit can reach the heart of Pastor Jeffs but I hope for his and his family’s sake they will.
See if that good martyr's temple work has been done, and we can accomplish that for him and his dear wife and children. Very compelling story. Thank you for sharing.
I love your words! They are so inspiring to me. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and testimony. I feel the Spirit when you speak.
Oh my heart! ❤❤❤❤
You are so amazing!
✨I felt the Spirit so strong✨
❤️🙌🏻🔥
Thanks so much for calling him out!
I hope he responds! God Bless You!
❤️🙏🏼
I love you even more!
Another GREAT session with you, Brother David!!! Thank you for defending the TRUTH!!
I'd be very surprised if Jeff says yes to a debate. If he watches this he knows he'd be spanked intellectually and spiritually as he should be.
I love David. I love Pastor Jeff. Pastor Jeff looks to be about 40 years old. Which of them was more anti-LDS at that age? Don't give up on Pastor Jeff. Our prayers will be answered, in God's time. Jeff will come all the way unto Christ. Give him the grace of Jesus Christ.
Maybe. Maybe not. I wouldn't bet on it. Bro. David was not brainwashed at some "bible college" to get a degree in professional preaching for money. $$$$
David has said he wasn't ever anti LDS. He was told that we weren't Christian so he never looked into the church. I think he said negative things about us, but it was more from a sense of not knowing much about us.
@@crazyaboutcards David said he was among the protesters at Temple Square during General Conference years ago. If that's not anti-LDS, what would you like to call it?
Jeff isn't trying to join our church though. He's made that clear many, many times. The people believing he will eventually "see the light" are deceiving themselves
@@realtomtomeny I would call it being a Christian who was ignorant about our church. He was actively looking for what we have. Obviously he heard things among the Christians about us. He didn't know much and didn't give us much thought at all. We were like an annoying fly, he just brushed us off. He didn't even want to talk to us. Antis are actively seeking to bring down the church and it's members. You're comparing apples and oranges. Pastor Jeff is a great person. He is "all in" where he's at. And that's fine. He had his agency and he's happy. Cool. I think there's always a chance he could change his mind, because I believe that about everyone. But it takes desire to know the truth, and he's not one bit interested in sincerely asking God the questions he needs to ask. He won't even recognize that we believe in Jesus and that we aren't going to hell. It is completely obvious when you watch him. He is crafting his words to lead us to question our doctrine and our faith. Be awake. Spend time reading the scriptures or watching conference instead of Hello Saints. Pray for Pastor Jeff. If enough of us do, maybe his heart will be softened. But if we all watch his channel, we're just making him money and spending our time unwisely. If you feel the spirit watching his videos, then you're experiencing something different that what I am.🤷♀️
David, that was an AWESOMELY AMAZING video. The Spirit was strong as it testified to me of your words! May God bless and keep you ‘til we meet again.
Like MANY (supposed) wise preachers of the “Gospel”, these words come to mind - “Ever learning but NEVER coming to a knowledge of the TRUTH”, But I pray every day they will. God’s Will be done!
I have no issue with other people's faith and beliefs, but when Jeff moved to Utah with the agenda of rescuing people from the Latter-Day Saint "cult", well that really stunk and he has crossed the line. Then he came to our general conference and later in his video disagreed with what our prophet and apostles said. Well, Jeff is no better than the evangelistic nay sayers that stand on the corner hurling abuse at the Latter-Day Saints. David, ask him whether or not he believes if the Latter-Day Saints are Christian. 😊❤️🙏🇦🇺
He crossed the line a long time ago.
@@nonrepublicrat yes, he did.
I am soooo grateful the spirit told me at the first. How is that? I keep asking myself how some saints see it and some don’t. Good saints…why??
Thank you brother David. After watching pastor jeffs video i was horrified to see how many lds fans of jeff were just lapping up his teaching against baptismal regeneration.
What does it mean to be saved? Does it mean to have your sins forgiven? To be regenerated and made spiritually alive after once being spiritually dead in our sins? Mark 1 says we are baptized unto repentence for the remission of sins. This is why 1 peter 3 says baptism now saves us.
Pastor jeff read 1 peter 3 and said that, taken in context, this scripture is teaching that it is Christ's ressurection that saves us, not baptism. But as you pointed out so expertly, Romans 6 teaches that baptism is what unites us to christ in both his death and ressurection.
If one tries to call out this false teaching in his comment section they simply get shadow banned. Jeff is not teaching Jesus Christ's doctrine. People are being led astray.
But Jeff MUST know what he is talking about. He has a bible college degree that says he does
@@nonrepublicrat😂😂😂. You can’t be serious. A Bible college degree gives him power to know God’s truth? 🤦🏽♀️That’s the problem right there. You can only know God’s truth by the Holy Spirit, not a Bible college degree!!! Any other way is dangerous. Which of Jesus Apostles went to Bible College? Which of the Prophets went to Bible College. All throughout the Bible Truth is taught only by way of the Holy Ghost. To claim Bible college as the litmus test is to fall prey to the deceptions of Satan. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees who believed they had higher authority of the truth because they were scholars. Jeff was taught the philosophies and doctrines of men who misinterpreted God’s words.
Jeff preaches a new gospel as from this dispensation Baptism was a key component and essential in Christianity.
I was shocked to learn that pastors are preaching against Baptism. That is Blasphemous.
Though Jesus was without sin, he got Baptized to be the example to us.
When you don’t have the true spirit of God, you cannot know his truth. Satan is ready to deceive those who are spiritually blind.
.
@@nonrepublicrat Lol!!!!😂😂
@@nonrepublicrathahahahaha 😅😅right! Lol
Show me one example of this "lapping up". Maybe you were reading a different comments section than me
You are awesome, thank you for your clarity and preciseness of information for the salvation of the children of God..
David you are amazing. Thank you so much. I have been pondering the commitment of the church to baptism - we have 73,000 missionaries who have one job: find and baptise those who desire to be bound to Christ. We all know we will keep very few of these people, many of them will leave the church very rapidly but we commit so much of our time, effort and treasure to this purpose. We (obviously) do not expect that many of these people will produce much fruit - or continue in the church, or take any additional ordinances - but it is SO IMPORTANT that we do it anyway. Think about that. Ponder how serious the Lord is, to get this essential ordinance out to ALL PEOPLE. In addition we commit as much time, effort, and treasure to finding and baptising the DEAD. There is NO CHURCH that takes this responsibility as seriously as the true, restored Church of Jesus Christ, of Latter Day Saints.
BEST READING of
AOF 1-4 I've heard...
Thank you Brother
✨I loved your song too! You are full of the light! This is Light and Truth! ✨
Ephesians 4:5 one Lord,one faith, one baptism. A good verse for Jeff to teach on.
Hallelujah brother!!!
All LDS baptismal fonts are built below ground level. It’s symbolizes burying your sins and being born again as a disciple of Christ. . There’s a lot no one explained to me when I was 8, but I felt the Spirit. I used to wish for a do-over when I understood better. But it’s okay because we renew those covenants every week at sacrament meeting when we worthily take the sacrament. Heavenly Father and Jesus have taken such good care to make our way sure. Just keep on the path.
Pastor Jeff believes his own version of truth, you can't help these people. My brother is anti-Mormon and he is the same he has his own version of truth.
Pastor Jeff is asleep...He dosen't know the Father. All he cares about is just his version of Jesus. So hes not even teaching the original gospel of Jesus Christ. I am disturbed by his teaching that there is no need for baptism by proper authority.
It seems to be an epidemic. So many seem to think they can create their own truth...
They fail to realize that there is such a thing as objective truth. Truth is truth outside of how we choose to believe, and it's our job to be humble enough to find it. It's very sad. 🥺
Why are so many debunking LDS?
If it was the truth it should be so easy to tear down.
Smith said there was people in the North Pole in a hole shaped like a kettle, you were going to come out and go through the temple in Eden.
There is many things said by the leaders that didn’t happen and probably won’t happen.
@@kylethedalek 🤔
That's new to me (a lifetime member of the Latter-Day Church of Jesus Christ) but you're right, these are just men who are not speaking prophetically 100% of the time. Same is true for every prophet throughout history, the only difference is most was so long ago we don't have those "stories" documented. Only legitimate scripture. Furthermore there are many examples of awful behavior by "men of god" Satan (and his own) does his dirty work and he's allowed to; the whole point of this probationary period we call mortality. I believe in the principal of equal opposition in all things. Those given great light often have to grapple with great evil. The Book of Mormon is a beautiful gift of enlightenment from our loving Eternal Father who has not left us alone in these last days. I encourage anyone who sees this to read it and do all the research they can in the spirit of searching for truth. That said let's not lose sight of #1 is; Jesus. 🤍
@@kylethedalek It isn't easy to tear down because the LDS teach that Jesus is risen up in the flesh so the LDS agree with the Bible account of 1 John. What you may not realize about Prophets of God is that if the people are not Faithful or obedient to the Lord's prophet and rebel against him then they won't received the promised blessings promised by the prophets. The Children of Israel did not meet the necessary requirements in order to be worthy to enter into the promised land when led by Moses So most of them did not sanctify themselves to enter into the promised land and went wandering in the wilderness being cursed for 40 years slowly dying by the local poisonous wildlife because they had rebelled and rejected Moses council. Does that make Moses a false prophet because the children of Israel had rejected his counsel and no longer listened to him? no.
Its the same also with the Lord's latter-day prophets today. Reject their council, and end up crying like a pack of alley cats howling upon the fence with that awful out of tune din crying Fallen Prophet and making "olympic sized swimming pools of self-pity"" as Elder Maxwell had put it when he talked about disobedience to the prophets in Zion.
That is the very first step to plant THAT seed of Faith in Jesus Christ Our Savior … then to follow Him ever more…. into Baptism etc! …. and so so much more!! ❤😊
God has great things, for those who love him, and keep his commandments.
Jesus said to John who was so humbled and kind of hesitant to be the one baptizing our Savior. Jesus immediately put him in line to the necesity to obey the comantment and said to him: "Let the justice to be fulfilled". In other words, the divine Law pr justice has to be fulfill. Jesus himself walked miles to meet John to be baptized and gave us an example practicing and also on his own voice : " Let's comply with every justice" as said it to John the Baptist.The Book of Acts mentions how the Apostles and disciples went on baptizing and laying on the hands on them to be able to received the gift of the Holy Ghost.Of course becuase they have the real Authority to perform such. Other than that is opposite like Mr. Jeff and many other denominations who have their own version of the truth.
Following Jesus, is not a spectator sport.
Can’t enter the kingdom without passing through the gate
Mists of darkness, would have us lead to destruction.
Baptism is the gate to exaltation in the Celestial Kingdom, the entry to the covenant path. It isn't necessary for "salvation" into one of the other kingdoms. See D&C 76:43-44, 2 Nephi 2:4. All but the sons of perdition are "saved" eventually into a kingdom with some level of glory. This is a marvelous effect of the Atonement that is often overlooked. The great message of the Restoration that was lost in the Apostasy is that THERE IS SO MUCH MORE!: exaltation, perfection, eternal family life, and becoming like God the Father, living in His presence, having His power and glory, inheriting all that he has, etc. etc. His love for us and His power to exalt us are so much greater than other religions can even imagine. So we are usually talking about exaltation when Protestants are only talking about salvation., although we sometimes use the words interchangeably. Perhaps we shouldn't! Anyone can get to the lower kingdoms without baptism. These are the kingdoms many would be perfectly happy in forever. It's all they expect. THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF "SALVATION" IS SO FAR BELOW WHAT THE RESTORED GOSPEL OFFERS THAT IT CAN'T BEGIN TO TOUCH IT. WE MUST MAKE THE DISTINCTION!!!
I think PJ calling us “Saints “is more of a name than a title. Of course I doubt that he would ever address that because he would have to truthfully admit he doesn’t think we’re saints, but he would probably say that it’s because that’s our name. And not a title.
Thoughtful, thanks.
I personally understand curiously studying some one's faith , but I know Pastor Jeff is trying to prove that what we believe is wrong, while acting like he's curious and smiling 😁 a lot. He comes across as being disingenuous, to me. He's trying to save us because he feels we're going to go to hell. Evangelicals and Calvary have always hated our church and I don't think they will ever stop preaching against us! And I sometimes get the feeling he's patronizing us, using us for clicks, filming in our chapels. There is definitely something behind his glaring fake over smile.
In a video l heard him say people have left our church for his, so l think he's a 🦊 fox in the hen house 🏠
Maybe Hello children of God.
Sweet is the Word of God …. we cannot be arrogant that is for sure
We have to watch for those who wait to deceive .
Pride does come before a fall, lack of sprit, loss of foundation, the adversary has many ways to destroy us. We can speak truth with love.
Denouncing baptism as a requirement for salvation for the living, makes it easier to denounce proxy baptism for the dead.
If Baptism isn’t necessary then why did Christ who is perfect get Baptized
Simple right?!
What I don't understand is that I've spoken to some evangelicals who believe in baptism as essential and other evangelicals who don't think it's needed
You are definitely describing Christ’s church and doctrine. I color code my scriptures. One color for the Godhead and another for Faith, Repentance and Baptism. Faith, Repentance and Baptism and then receiving the Holy Ghost is everywhere in the New Testament. It reminds me constantly of the 4th Article of Faith given us by the Prophet Joseph Smith. “We Believe that the First Principles and Ordinances of (Christ’s) Church are: First, FAITH in the Lord Jesus Christ, Second, REPENTANCE, Third, BAPTISM by Immersion for the remission of sins, Fourth, Laying on of Hands for the Gift of the Holy Ghost.”
Keep holding up the banner of Truth David, you are doing a great work. I listened to a few Hello Saints from Jeff at first. He is nice, but I also came to realize that he isn’t truly seeking, he wants to teach members of The Church of Jesus Christ that they are wrong. As for this member, he made me realize exactly how true Christ’s Restored Church is as we have the foundation Christ established with Christ as the cornerstone and Apostles and Prophets and Ordinances that save us, and True Doctrine. God be Thanked for the Matchless Life of His Divine son and His true church on earth!!
Second Nephi, chapter 31 verse five, even Jesus was baptized, love you, David
I have the feeling that Jeff dosen't like you 😂😂😂😂😂 because your delivery is " i love Jeff and I'm sure he's a nice guy " then your words punched him in the face 😮 😂😂😂
Call him OUT Thanks David you are doing your best. Be Loud, Be Loud, We need TRUTH and we need it LOUD!!!
Thank you...the holy spirit testifies of this truth deep in my heart. I also felt like saying, that if Jesus Christ said " come follow me ", then there must be a path to follow. It doesn't mean anybody's interpretation of that path. Jesus showed us the path by being baptized and setting forth the covenants and ordinances to bind us to him as followers. It's beautiful and wonderful!
Brilliant
God loves us so much.
It is true that we cannot decide how to interpret the scriptures on our own….truth is truth. Our opinions about it may or may not be true, but it’s actually the Holy Spirit who testifies of the truths, the principles of the gospel!! The Holy Spirit will tell us the true meaning of things. And if we listen, we are being honest in our hearts.
LOVE your 70s style
directness and song...
When you take up your
guitar I hear testimony
but ALSO remember my
young hearing of that

folk singing "Stepping
Into (Heading Out) to
Eden... YEAH BROTHER..." ;-)
Beautifully done❤️.
Thanks for bringing up the teachings of Paul, he’s a great hero.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Olivia was so loved and had a such a wonderful life with you. She will be forever missed. RIP Olivia.
David, I think the most beautiful teaching on why baptism is essential that we have in scripture, maybe apart from 2 Nephi 31, is found in Moroni 8 where he shares the teachings of his father, Mormon, on the wickedness of baptizing children. Because little children are innocent and incapable of realizing their need for repentance and obedience, he teaches it is an abomination before God to require them to be baptized. Then he explains this profound doctrine, 25 And the first fruits of repentance is baptism; and baptism cometh by faith unto the fulfilling the commandments; and the fulfilling the commandments bringeth remission of sins;
26 And the remission of sins bringeth meekness, and lowliness of heart; and because of meekness and lowliness of heart cometh the visitation of the Holy Ghost, which Comforter filleth with hope and perfect love, which love endureth by diligence unto prayer, until the end shall come, when all the saints shall dwell with God.
The symbolism of of the water washing away our sins is obvious, but Paul’s teaching of crucifying the man of sin and descending in death with Christ so we can be raised to a newness of life is profound. As many have taught, true faith in Christ is always manifested by faithfulness. It’s our repentance and willingness to enter a covenant with God through baptism, followed by our sincere efforts to stay in covenant through sincere obedience that brings the cleansing and sanctifying power of the Holy Ghost into our lives. Preach on, brother.
Matthew ch 5
19. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
That’s wow.
Yeah, for some reason I don't think Jeff will be accepting your invitation.... 😂
Evangelicals and Calvary Church hate the Mormon faith and they always have and they teach classes against us! The Mormon church never preaches against anyone or any children!
I have a prediction. He will answer the Saints question and ignore this one about Baptism.
He will say something like: I just call you Saints because that is what you call yourselves…who am I to say otherwise (in his best woke empathetic persona)
PJ knows that you can catch flies with honey. But he also knows that you catch more honeys (saints) being fly.
Hello again David,
Thank you for defending the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. I am grateful for your deep knowledge of the Old and New Testaments. I learn great and marvelous things from each of your videos.
I started ignoring Pastor Jeff for continually using the word "mainstream". Since when was mainstream thinking accurate? The world isn't flat, nor does the sun revolve around the earth. Adding to the Bible at the Council of Nicea, and many Council's afterward, falls into the same category. As do the 5 Sola's.
In my opinion, the sinner’s prayer is another way to have what God the Father prevented Adam and Eve from having in the Garden of Eden - living forever in their sins. All they had to do was reach out and partake of the fruit of the Tree of Life (without permission). Claiming that salvation is assured by saying a few words (why not ring a bell or doing a proscribed set of dance steps) seems to me to be very similar thinking........ it attempts to make not only baptism unnecessary but also keeping of any of the rest of the Commandments of God optional.
Thanks for all you do. Best wishes always,
Poor Jeff is getting the brunt of all the steam built up from years of frustration caused by false doctrine. 😂 It's a slam dunk Elder Alexander, but maybe turn the heat down a little bit. 😬😅😬
Believe me I understand the righteous anger and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing you express the thoughts of my own heart.
But try to remember...
Christlike. 🕊️💪🏼🕊️
Again, I completely understand the passion, this is not a trite thing. 🤍
I don’t feel anger, people have to be built on a rock, I hope deception doesn’t get out of hand.
I just don’t understand how people can so love to listen to Pastor Jeff and use their time in this way, when they literally could be listening to all the general conference talks that have ever been given since 1970! Go use your time listening to true prophets and Apostles. It’s astounding to listen to those old talks and hear those brethren prophesy of the near future and then to be living it just as they said it would happen! It’s really cool!
It is perplexing to me that so many (not all) in today’s Christianity cannot grasp the simple message in Hebrews 5: 9 “And being made perfect, he (Jesus) became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY him.” Obedience has nothing to do with “earning” salvation, as some may believe. This accusation that we are trying to “earn” is a distraction tactic to the real reasons that we must obey. Obedience has everything to do with preparing oneself to receive the free gift of salvation that only Christ Jesus can and has paid for! Without obedience, there is no understanding of the things of God! Job taught that to DEPART from evil (repentance) is understanding. David declared that he understood more than the ancients because he KEPT the precepts of God. It is no wonder that Satan would minimize works and obedience, and call them “non-essential”, since that false belief would and does perpetuate the lack of Spiritual understanding. It is Satan’s greatest ploy for his purpose to deceive.
I listened to a couple of Jeff's videos. Two words kept coming to my mind to describe his approach... "sophistry" and "Korihor".
I described how the Evangelicals function as businesses to my brother and his comment was "priestcraft".
YES Korihor!! That’s what I have said! Even if he believes what he is doing it still doesn’t make it right! It’s VERY wrong to pull ppl away from Jesus Christs True church!
Isn’t that is why we read the BoM to c see korihor activities to prepare us seeing korihor today?
He uses what we call Anti Mormon tactics, very cleaver and cunning and knows exactly what he is doing in his videos to target inactive sand attract more ex members of the Church. He isn’t as blind to things as many would believe and many LDS members get weird ideas that he is honestly investigating the Church ha ha I dealt and contended many times with men and women such as himself and they offer an appearance of Nice but there intentions are other wise. They hate the Lords Church and dwell in a place they think is full of light, but there is no light in them.
I had asked Jeff what evangelical has the proper authority to omit baptism by immersion by one having proper authority? No answer. I had on my mind while watching, that the apostate view was on display and the justifications and reason why he doesn't see it as necessary brought me to wonder how he has the authority to decide that and when did that occur. But I realize this is embedded in many ignoring proper priesthood authority and covenants and ordinances needed. It is contrary to the Bible. I hope his heart will be softened to learn the truth
Straight is the path and narrow is the gate that leads to ternal salvation... The straight and narrow path
Also the Gift. Of the Holy Ghost,when given with the right authority, guides the children back to the mansion, Jesus has prepared for them.
It's good to hear "Hello! It's David again" once more.
I'm beginning to agree with a lot this new opinion forming around Pastor Jeff. When his channel started out it was interesting because an Evangelical actually seemed to take an interest in Latter-day Saints rather than run them off and it appeared to be that at the start, but as time goes on, it's less about that and more about convert the Mormons. But, you have to give it to him, he's very cunning and subtle about it but the more time goes on, it's becoming more and more about seeking out the weaker Latter-day Saints and really causing them to question their faith. You've got to be a strong Latter-day Saint around him. The first big tip off to me was when he showed the video of the woman that attended a sacrament meeting. He sold it as a woman supporting his slogan, but as you watched the video, he was calm and cool with how she was reacting, her intent was to convert the Mormons and he didn't have looks of puzzlement or questioning but smiling like a pat on the back. He was proud of her.
His channel started out much differently but now, yeah, it's apparent he's out to cause Latter-day Saints to question their faith. When he prayed to go to Utah, he didn't pray to understand the Mormons better, he prayed asking if it was God's will to go to Utah to save them. His learning about the Church is deteriorating, his reading the Book of Mormon is gone, and he's wanting to play the kind Evangelical with the intent to win Latter-day Saints over with the kindness effect. Problem is, I think they found statistically that Latter-day Saints leave Christianity more than convert to other faiths because Christian doctrine, unless your ignorant, really doesn't make sense. Christians I know of still don't understand the Trinity and that's a problem for them. Most Latter-day Saints go to spiritualist and a lot go atheist, so Pastor Jeff isn't helping at all, he's running good people out of the faith altogether. That's pretty slick.
If you watch the channel MORMON BOOK REVIEWS, the guy interviews another guy who was Evangelical and organized a mission to Utah. He'd known Latter-day Saints growing up in California and was even meeting with the Sister Missionaries, but he went on a mission to Utah and describes the methods he used to convert Mormons and he states he was successful, like a Korihor, but then he started to question why he was doing what he was doing, got caught turning on what he originally went down there for but ended up meeting with the missionaries more and was baptized and is now getting ready to serve a mission with the actual authority to proclaim the gospel so, Jeff is doing the same thing. They told him the field is ripe in Utah and he's working on his Utah buddies with the kindness approach so, while it started out good, his channel seems to be progressively leaving that behind for "Hello Saints, let's see if I can change your mind." He's said that his Evangelical friends in Utah told him to leave Missouri to go to Utah for a unique kind of work so, he's taking their word and is gonna work on Latter-day Saints it seems and one day, like Korihor, you get to stand before God where he asks: Why did you try to turn my children against me? You get to account for that so, yeah, David knows that side, he knows their methods, the guy has 47 years experience and Hello Saints is changing. If there's a comment in his section that is anti-Evangelical, he deletes it. If it causes you to question LDS doctrine, it stays. His faith can't be made to look bad and he checks it regularly. I'm certain he's carefully watching David's videos like this and combing the comments section as well. Saints Unscripted? No. Stick of Joseph? Yes
I don’t understand what you mean “saints unscripted, no. Stick of Joseph, yes.” Please explain🙂
@@loridavis7086Oh, man.... I'm sorry. What I meant by that was Saints Unscripted isn't one to look into what's going on with other channels and get caught up in Hello Saints..... Political kind of stuff, though David Snell is an excellent missionary with a good approach to working with Jeff McCullough and is probably the most likely to "convert" Jeff, if that's possible but won't. Stick of Joseph's UA-cam channel are good guys but they're one of the few, along with Greg Madsen at CWIC MEDIA, also a good dude, who are looking out for Jeff and probably tipping him off. I used to think Greg Madsen and Jeff McCullough would be a good duo for UA-cam content, but I'd rather see Greg and David talk more, now, or see if Jeff McCullough can stand up to David here, I don't think he can, I think he's afraid David can dismantle him, he likely sees David as a demon possessed man that deceived him and led him to the LDS Church, David clearly feels otherwise. But, yeah, Saints Unscripted aren't going to go out of their way to see what trouble is brewing for Hello Saints, but Stick of Joseph does and have openly admitted to seeing the controversy that has been speer-headed by David whose been on Jeff's side and knows his methods as well as the young man interviewed by MORMON BOOK REVIEWS who was Evangelical and pretty much gave away Jeff's tactic. Jeffs intent to lead Latter-day Saints away by getting on their good side and building trust with curiosity, that's now. That's the Amalachiah tactic: "Come down off the mountain..... No? How about we meet half way and I'll let you bring your guards with you (I'm moving to Utah where I am now outnumbered and the minority)".
Jesus is our Great Exemplar,. He was baptized the...
1. Proper way...immersion not springkling, for there were much water there
2. Proper age..He was not baptized when He was an infant,
3. Proper authority, of all the people in Jordan River,
why did He came to John the Baptist?
It was written in the Holy scriptures that it is solemn mockery to the atonement of Christ if innocent little children are baptized...
Thanks for the unvarnished truth.
Jeff's authority is not the Bible. His authority is his divinity degree that he paid for. If he turns away from it he has to accept he was lied to and paid for it. He will loose his authority as a pastor. It's too much for him to accept.
I couldn’t agree more. This issue will not be only Pastor Jeff’s! There are a lot of people like him out there that don’t want to accept the truth because they’re afraid that they will loose their authority according to to their title.
Day would also have to go find a real job.
They
We know he would be blessed, the Gospel is a treasure.
Waste of time for a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints to listen to pastors UA-cam channels
Baptism is the narrow gate by which we must enter. We know what Christ said about coming in some other way..
How can Jeff believe that Baptism isn't necessary when Christ was Baptized as an example of what we must do , though Christ didn't need Baptism, he showed us the way. Jeff doesn't understand what ordinances are. "Else why are they then Baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all"" The early saints understood ordinances. Jeff and the most of the Christian world doesn't.
Perhaps Pastor Jeff knows that he has no authority to baptize. Therefore he and the rest of them have to make baptism unnecessary.
Good point, maybe that way they don't have to deal with the disonance
That is exactly the point, they have not authority.
Interesting comment, fascinating actually, i've never thought of that Thank you
