Suppose Jesus did die for our sins ➡️ Why then do the Christians still preach > we need to repent for our sins ? CHRISTIANS MAKE Y0UR MIND UP, BECAUSE IT CAN'T BE B0TH
@@MATTHEWProvesJesusDidNotDieFor This is Matt: 27: 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Did you pick the right verse? I don't follow you.
Ah! This is helpful I have been wrestling with this question of fear for a few years. In Romans 8 we are told that we did not receive a spirit of slavery to return to fear - but we received a spirit of adoption as sons. So there must be a range in this business of fear I am at the place where I believe Godly fear is given as a gift as we, by the Spirit, put to death the deeds of the body. Just like Joy and the Fruits of the Spirit, this fear is reverence for the Holy God John Bunyan is a reliable source in this matter I think
I am in the same boat. I drive a forklift for 8 or 12 hour shifts, depending on the day and most of that is spent listening to sermons. I am waiting for the day that the clock at Apologia "accidentally" breaks and Jeff goes for 3 hours like we know he wants to
Thank you for speaking Gods word and reminding men of the due reverence as fear owed to the Lord. I often forget and, as a result, more readily succumb to my sinful inclinations. May he watch over you, your family, and your congregation in the chaotic time to come Jeff.
Are you in my head? I appreciate your ability to express the word of God, there are no words to explain how much needed the truth is in this day. Truth…. IT WILL SET YOU FREE
I am SO thrilled that you are doing Proverbs. Since I was a small child I was told to read the Proverb each date that matched the date. I still do this 50 years later. There is always a new verse that hasn't stopped you in your tracks before. If we could only live by all of the teachings in Proverbs, our lives would have a lot less trouble. I love this church and wished it was closer than 24 hours away! I wait each week for the sermon to be posted. It would be crazy to move half way across the country just to be part of a church, wouldn't it?? I've thought about it!
How can anyone read even just the New Testament and have no fear of God? He is terrifying in His holiness! I am so thankful that Jesus is my righteousness. I know I have ZERO of my own. I cannot fathom standing before such power & holiness on my own strength & merits. How can anyone not be afraid of that? It's mind boggling to me.
To staff: in the Proverbs playlist, this Sermon should likely be placed after the previous Sermon, Wisdom from Above: The Beginning of Wisdom. With love and prayers, a watcher online.
I enjoy hearing Pastor Jeff and went on the church website to avoid commercials and it did not work...Would be nice to go to a church website and hear gospel sermons without the worldly added annoyances....If anyone has suggestions, let me know. Thanks
"Fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom." This statement occurs several times in the Book. Just as the new birth is the beginning of the Spiritual life of the Christian, fear of God can be seen as a seed of faith--"Knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men..." But, we should point out the verses which say, "He who fears is not made perfect..." for "perfect love casts out fear." So as in "all things pertaining to life and godliness," there is a PROGRESSION toward freedom in our Christian walk, toward what the scripture calls "perfection." This idea IS NOT well understood by Calvinistic types, of which Apologia ministry is a good contemporary example.
@@ruthhopfe7912 Thank you for that reply, sister Ruth. The negative emotions, fear, sorrow, grief and suffering in general aren't popular in American Evangelicalism. I have so far been unable to avoid them, both in life and in my reading of scripture!
The messiah's name was always going to be Jesus according to Zechariah Chapter 6... which is the same name as the post exile high priest ,Yeshua! if the concept of Messiah and God are separate then it doesn't automatically follow that sins can be forgiven.. only God can forgive sins. furthermore if the expectation of Messiah is to reverse the events of Genesis 3 Genesis 6 and Genesis 11 then by Definition messiah has to be more than just a man. Jesus being born of Mary but not of Joseph is not a problem according to Jewish history because I believe during the reign of Queen Alexandra Jewish law made Heritage pass on, by matrilineal Bases. A basis for the Trinity can be established in the Old Testament by passages like Amos 4:11Isaiah 48:16.. and Judges chapter 2:1 and Daniel 7:9-14 Support for the idea of God becoming man in Scripture are Deuteronomy 18 verses 15 to 18 Focus of the verse speaks of the coming Messiah coming from lineage of Israel like unto moses. We also have Exodus chapter 23 verse 20 and 21 the context of which is speaking about the future Endeavor of going over Jordan then we come to Joshua chapter 5 verses 13 to 15 and the context of this passage is having just gone over the Jordan into Israel. Another proof of this idea perhaps most glaringly Jeremiah chapter 1 verses 4-10... the first thing you want to pay attention to is titles in verse 4 and verse 9... Hashem and the word of the Lord these titles are used interchangeably there's some definite implication there but the point of emphasis here is verse 9 because it goes a little further than just anthropomorphic language. Now the next concern is did Jesus ever claim to be God? And for this the scriptures I would provide are Matthew 26:64 Jesus directly quotes Daniel 7:13 John 10:34 Jesus claims to be the judge in Psalm 82 referencing verse 6 In John 10 versus Both 11 and 14 Jesus Yeshua says that he is the Good Shepherd and you can cross-reference this with the very first line of Psalm 23. In Mark chapter 6 starting from verse 45 Jesus walks on the water this is something designated in the Old Testament for something only God (job 9:8) can do this separates Jesus from the other people who did miracles. Where another claim would be is in the fact that Jesus forgives sins, off the top of my head is Mark chapter 2 now certainly there have always been Messianic claimants but none of them have ever claimed to forgive sins. Now the question becomes why would Jesus so secretive why didn't he just come out and say that he was the Lord God of Israel?... well one scripture off the top of my head of that I would provide here that might be interesting is this Matthew 16:20 "then he commanded his disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ"... my suggestion to you here, would be that the crucifixion how to take place at a certain place at a certain time and under a specific set of circumstances. Please Look into all the scriptures I made mention here I hope this helps even one person Hashem bless everyone of you... in the name of Jesus both son and God of David king of Israel, amen!
@@ruthhopfe7912 everyone needs something different in order to get through to them, people care about different things and being respectful I think you're kind of selling people short.. I grant that different environments have different kinds of people but generally people are smarter than you're giving them credit for.. the way that I framed things here would be what a Jew or a Muslim, as well as the unbelieving academic would focus on.... despite this people that are generally curious are gonna be curious, mostly to disprove you or me... .. and aren't we forgetting that the Apostle Paul was the most famous lawyer in all of Israel... I believe Peter even remarks on how Paul's letters are hard to read. If I was on the street I would adjust accordingly of course... but since I'm on the internet the beauty of the internet is that the words don't go away, you can refer back to them unlike a conversation. Some people use this as somewhat of a study, to which I very much encourage. I post this message everywhere.

This is the message that should've been preached in every Christian church in America yesterday.
One of my favorite contemporary pastors/theologians.
I love Pastor Jeff Durbin's preaching.

Godly fear of the Lord is a grace given to us by God Himself through the work of the Spirit within us. - John Bunyan
Ah! This is helpful

So there must be a range in this business of fear

Thanks pastor Jeff, my Mondays at work go so smoothly listening to your sermons.

Same. I use all my data with a headset on listening to sermons and debates.
True gospel teaching. Amen
Amen. Renew us bless us.
God bless you Pastor Jeff for this powerful inspiring sermon preached by you for all to hear listen and obey Gods word.
Been in Darkness. Many Apologies for much. God is the only one who can free us from our difficulties.
As always, God’s truth presented in a straight forward manor. Thank you!!!

Great sermon! Thank you!
this is really really good! thank you apologia church!
Love Jeff's passion.
1 John 4:16-21 There is no fear in love.....God is love..

I wonder how many people have done that. I sometimes wonder too, at least visit. I'm in Toronto so it would be far!!
If I was single, I’d have moved out there by now. I’m thinking about flying out there as a Christmas gift this year.
It would not be ? Pray about it

You should fear God the same way you would fear your parents when you got in trouble because you knew you would get grounded for a week

Two kinds of 'fear' -- one is Godly and one is death!
