Wow, thank you Richie for sharing the simplicity of the Gospel, I am reminded of 2 Corinth.11:3, the Lord is renewing our minds as the body of Christ. May God continue bless you Bethel family❤
This sermon is just what I needed to hear. I have been frustrated, so hungry for more. The reminder to keep rejoicing always and being thankful and celebrating with others encouraged me so much. Thank you from Australia.

I’m sorry, but what this gentleman is saying about 1 Corinthians 13 is not true. He just read it. It doesn’t say, “without love there is no prophecy. Or without love there is no tongue.” It says love never ends. As for prophecies they will pass away; as for tongues they will cease. Both of the gifts are given by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is saying those will be done away with. But love never will. Love is not a measurement for the effectiveness of any spiritual gift. That is not what this passage is about. Please read the Word.
“If I do not have love, I have nothing.” (verse 2) He doesn’t mean to say the gifts aren’t available or possible without love, and I know for a fact that he believes the gifts are irrevocable for everyone. The point of this message and what he was trying to convey was that without love, the gifts become powerless. If your tongues and prophecy have no love, they might as well just be noisy gongs or nothing at all. We are meant to operate in a small percentage of our gift and mostly out of love. I hope this helps!
@@ItsH2Os he literally read the text and then twisted it to say something it doesn’t. The passage is not about our gifts. Yet he made it about that. If you have to clarify what he meant, then he isn’t a good teacher. A teacher should always be able to correctly handle the Word of God. (2 Timothy 2:15) And this gentleman, as sincere as he may be, is not handling it correctly.
@@chrissteward6815Correct, the passage is about love. That’s the whole point. The gifts are the smallest part of what we are called to do, which is love. I disagree with your statement about good teachers don’t need clarification. I would argue that Jesus had to give clarification constantly about His parables and people were often confused about what He was saying. If you see that he’s sincere, give grace and seek to understand. I can promise you Richard’s last intent is to say something anti-biblical and if it was conveyed that way, I’m sorry!
@@ItsH2Os the people couldn’t understand Jesus’ parables bc it fulfilled OT prophecy about Jesus. (Matthew 13) The disciples then asked for clarification, for they had not been filled with the Holy Spirit yet. (John 20) 2 Timothy clearly states “study to show thyself approved. A workman, who needs not to be ashamed and correctly handles the Word of truth.” He misrepresents what the Word is saying. And no teacher should have to have someone else clarify for them. If so, they shouldn’t be teaching. The idea that we grow in our spiritual giftings is not a biblical concept either. But I’m sure we would disagree on that as well. My encouragement would be to study what this gentleman actually says God is showing him and examine in comparison to Scripture. The Word is what matters. No one’s opinion of the Word. Mine included. Blessings.
@@ItsH2Os sorry just seeing your comment in regards to your example. To say the Holy Spirit gives the gift of prophecy and someone can then use it to provide divination is absurd! You will find that nowhere in Scripture. Isaiah 55 states that the Word of Lord will not return void. His word or giftings cannot be used for demonic activity. A prophecy will always be 100% correct. Someone who has the gift of prophecy will never get it wrong. Why? Bc the Holy Spirit will not allow it to be wrong. 2 Peter 1 says that no prophecy comes from mans own interpretation. It comes from God. God is not a liar and His Word comes to pass. Conflating Spiritual gifts with demonic ones, is horrific and completely twisted teaching. If that is what you have been taught, please quit listening to it. Please.
This was absolutely what I needed!! Thank you Richard Gordon for stewarding favor so well and helping others do the same!! Wow, wow, wow!

This was great, but I missed the fire tunnel at the end! I was looking forward to that, as I lived it when they used to take a camera through
We ran the camera through it live but it looks like it’s been taken out of the post:)
