I'm a 46 year old single mother of two young daughters. I came to the Lord 14 months ago, I'm still growing and this channel has been such a big part of my growth. I just thank you for your service. The content is so clear and I formative, for a new Christian that's still really a baby, I was afraid it would be hard to fallow, but its been a real blessing
"The beginning of wisdom " In all my years collectively I have never felt more awake, aware, and knowledgeable as I do today. "The moral zombie " was so well put , I literally got chills, I related so much to this. Again just praise The Most High for this channel
Keep listening to these truths , I’m your age also… just saw this comment and I have two kids, I know it’s tough, but we shall prevail through any circumstance , we are Overcomers ❤😊 in JESUS name ❤
Brother Joel, I'm 75 this year, met Holy Spirit in January '68 in a house church in Abilene TX. Went to "Cemetery" at Perkins (SMU= Methodist) did a Jonah from there for ~20 years, finally answered the call to pastoral ministry in 1993. Served in 4 different denominations, 6-7 non- denominational churches and I don't believe I spoke even once on Hell or the Fear of the Lord. I definitely repent of that now, and REALLY appreciate the teaching that you and Dalton do!! THANK YOU!! FOR SPEAKING THE TRUTH!!
I really appreciate you saying this, Michael. I grew up under the Boomer Christianity of the 90s so, I remember what the world was like back then and I can tell you as a Kansas City kid that you weren't alone. I'm really enjoying seeing some US Believers rediscovering our 1st and 2nd century roots. Dalton's book "Unto Death" was a game-changer for me - I highly recommend it if you haven't read it yet.
@@jaytaka8573 or if they do teach Revelation it's a 'watered down' version omitting hell fires. The church has been lukewarm for a long time. Has become more of a social club than to spread the true Gospel.
We go to a non-denominational church. The Pastors and people that run the church are amazing people. They do wonderful things for the community and commit much of their time and efforts to help others no matter who they are. The fellowships my wife and I have gained are a gift from God really. The Bible studies have great discussions and have been very educational, Biblical speaking. However, they have yet to give a sermon about the end times, in fact, it's not even talked about at the church. I anonymously asked Lead Pastor thru email if Revelations would ever be a subject for a sermon or a series of sermons. He said that he was putting something together, but that was a year ago, and still nothing.
This is one of the best or maybe the best teaching I have ever heard! If this doesn't propell God's people to the fear of the Lord, sanctification, and deep prayer and concern for the lost, nothing will. I value your ministry and teachings. They are so scripturally sound. I have gone back and forth on the rapture teaching for years. One day I decided to take the second coming scriptures and study them without preconceived ideas from any human being. After much study, I felt very convinced that there was not a pre tribulation rapture. A couple days later, you're teaching on the second coming, The resurrection and the rapture came up on facebook. I went wow thank you Lord. It confirmed everything I felt Holy Spirit had just taught me. I felt so blessed. Thank you. I am going to go through every one of the studies and print off all the information. I am so concerned for my family and others in this day and hour. I pray your wife will be healed in the coming time of revival.
I wanted to say that I like very much what you wrote. I am so pleased that God spoke to you & brought you here. Someone gave me Joel's name in a comment on u tube only about 4 weeks ago so I was sent here too. I did believe in the post trib rapture naturally without much thought but had been to sent to many channels where they believed in various interpretations of pre-wrath rapture & what would happen & when & sent to one which I soon discovered believed in a pre-trib rapture. These were what many would regard as very highly regarded teachers of the Bible but I gradually one by one left listening to them all. This is what sits most comfortably with me inwardly, mentally & Biblically. God Bless you & your family. Maranatha 💟✝️🛐💜
My daughter just told me while I was witnessing to her about Jesus and the abortion ruling, and about repentance. She told me she grew up and learned science. My heart just sank. I began to cry. Oh may the Holy Spirit touch those who are unbelieving and confused. God bless you all.
Do you not know that you will stand before your maker and answer for the CONTENT your daughter was taught? You may delegate the activity of teaching; however, "Teach your children My ways." is forever. You have the VESTED interest in your daughter's ETERNITY.
@@chriskahrs1200 I’m sure she does have things that she wished she’d have done differently, just as we all do. Her heart is breaking at this reality. Let’s lift her up and help her! Not discourage her! Her daughter is the only one fully responsible for her choices.
Joel.... Very few things make me weep brother. But I had tears in my eyes with you. Just as I weep when I watch the passion each Easter to keep the suffering he made for us fresh and to not forget that we were all holding the bat. Regardless if we accept it or not doesn’t change the gravity and truth of it.
Your personal stories touched me deeply, thank you for sharing. Not exactly sure why I wanna share this here, but...here goes anyway.....I fell in love with that baby in the manger and when I learned he was the one on the cross, I believe I was saved. I was very young, 6 or maybe 7. I instantly became an enemy in my family, I was born into a deeply Masonic family. My life was spent seeking answers and living with a hodgepodge spirituality that's truly cringeworthy to me now. I was discouraged from even trying to understand the Bible, though I did try. I sought to understand God in a multiplicity of unbiblical ways. I believe I wasn't ever possessed, but I was so demonically oppressed, I doubt none but God could have seen the difference. Christ delivered me at 55. I ended up going no contact with everyone I ever knew. I made changes I could never have made due to the fear, but with God, I never felt safer. I didn't think it was possible to change so much, so quickly. It's difficult to start all over. I'd been gaslit all my life and no longer believed my lying eyes, ears, thoughts or beliefs. On the other hand, starting from that point has also been an incredible gift. When I realized I didn't know what the truth was, I did know WHERE the truth was...as soon as I realized it was the actual, True Jesus from the Bible that delivered me. It took me MONTHS to figure that out. Soon as I did, the face plant came next, rugburns included, thank you :) lol. Ever since, I've studied the Bible like I would if I were cramming for a final. And I am. God bless and thank you for being one of the voices of truth I can compare to Scripture and add to my understanding. There's so much to learn! It's amazing to think that the Holy Spirit was so incredibly faithful to lead me to good teachers....on YT! I stumbled a bit, but he straightened me out...thank God for Jesus....Maranatha!!!
Thank you for sharing your story. I have been praying for my son over 50 yrs to come to Jesus. He rejected me but worse he rejects following Jesus because his father brainwashed him years ago. I was very sad about him being so lost until I read your story. I will keep praying for him. It is sad when a person rejects their own mother, but more sad when they reject following Jesus. God bless!
@@junea7794 I can totally relate. My heart goes out to you. I know that pain too. I remind myself that God loves them so much more than I am able to, and continue to give them to him. He is faithful, and he is just, and he answers prayer better than I know how to pray. I've gotten to the place where I can pray for them and end with asking for his will to be done, knowing his will may be different from mine. I will pray in agreement with you for him. God bless.
@@junea7794, I'm sorry but my son has rejected me as well. Despite my screen name, I'm the mother of a wonderful son who finally stopped rebelling and found Jesus. I couldn't have been happier except he now rejects me, his mother. I had to be mother & father and never missed a ball game or karate tournament and made birthdays and holidays as special and festive as I could and made sure he got enough presents to feel loved but not so many that he was spoiled. How can he be so clear on the Lord and yet turn his back on me saying I was "selfish & uncaring"?? I'll pray for you and Broken Vessel. I'm hearing so so many mothers crying these same tears and I just don't get it. He admits I gave much more than my parents ever gave me but he's stubbornly resentful, neglectful & cold. I don't even know his phone number & my emails go unanswered for ages. The loneliness of not being able to have ant kind of conversation and always getting a short abrupt answer to all my questions which basically is shorthand for saying, "don't bother me anymore."
Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. I can relate in that I am Jewish, with Jewish parents. Growing up I saw how the Jewish community, including my family, had a true disdain for christians, Jesus and the cross. In my late 30's God began to soften and open my heart to Him and about 15 years ago I became a Christian (I am now 57). I am saddened at the thought of my entire family burning forever in the lake of fire. But trust in God's ultimate wisdom and justice. God bless you and Maranatha!!!
The part where you said, "you killed my son" really hit me. I knew that I am guilty of sin and that the penalty of sin is death. But to connect it in the way that yes, that same sin is ultimately what killed Jesus, deeply humbled me even more. Thank you for sharing your testimony. It was very moving and brought my connection to God even stronger. Thank you.
Thank you Joel. You demonstrated an honesty about your faith all to seldom expressed. I was greatly moved by your personal story. This truly helped me to understand how live in faith.
What possible purpose could God have for bringing billions of people into existence knowing beforehand that they would be rebellious and end up suffering forever?
@@caroleevandyk5544, He offers salvation to all for the taking. None of us deserves everlasting life in heaven even if we could possibly atone for our sins. Yet He sent His Loving Son to die in torment for us so that we may be granted freely what we could never earn on our own. If billions throw that away knowing the consequences, it's not God's fault. Would you ever supernaturally force someone to love you? No, of course not, because that love would have no value whatsoever. It wasn't freely given or given because that person saw how special you are and dedicated themself to you. The suffering is self-inflicted.
@@jamesjoseph9721 So you think everyone who ever lived actually knew the consequences of not trusting Christ? And you still did not answer my question. God says He “tells the end from the beginning”, so He knew before He created people that they would “choose” to rebel, and yet, you say He STILL chose to have these people come into existence, ONLY to end up suffering FOREVER after a few miserable years of life on this difficult, dangerous, broken earth. THAT is the best plan He could come up with? That is the most moronic, monstrous plan conceivable! Essentially He is creating people, ONLY to suffer forever. Is that really the God of scripture? And do you ever stop to consider WHY it is that you find yourself believing in Christ, when statistically, your chances of being a believer, compared with all of humanity, are minuscule and your chances of being a nonbeliever are FAR greater. So what is so special about you that you “chose” Christ? How come you were so smart to make the “right” choice? Did you control where you were born, what kind of upbringing and exposure to the gospel you had, along with thousands of other factors that influenced you toward trusting Christ? NO YOU DID NOT! How much of your saved status can you take credit for? 10%? 20%? Because you are saying that without YOUR contribution to the salvation process, NO MATTER WHAT CHRIST DID, it’s NOT enough to actually save an individual. So God leaves THE MOST CRITICAL, STUPENDOUS decision completely up to a weak, sinning individual to make, with THE MOST HORRIFIC consequences if the wrong choice is made? Seriously? Is that who your god is? You don’t think God causes and influences any of the factors that lead people to love His Son? And if you say you can take no credit for your saved status, that God accomplished 100% of it through Christ, then if He saved you, why wouldn’t He eventually save everyone. God says He is no respecter of persons, so if He is able to save YOU, He can save all. Think about it.
Father God empower US to TRULY be " KNOWN' BY YOU!!! LORD WE RENOUNCE the superficial living ! Father God empower US to live the SUPERNATURAL, SACRIFICIAL LIFE OF LOVE🙏🙏🙏🙏 HAVE MERCY ON US🙏
Powerful, challenging - this message, especially your personal experience testimony broke me. It is time for us to give up all the false doctrines we have allowed the world and our emotions to dictate our acceptance of. Thank you for this message.
I’ve been following and supported FAI for a long time now. Can’t emphasize how important it is for me to stay connected with this ministry and the teachings. Praying that it is pleasing to God for my wife and I to make it to Golan Heights in the near future.
I am Jewish, with Jewish parents. In my late 30's God began to soften and open my heart to Him and about 15 years ago I became a Christian (I am now 57).

I came to the Lord 23 years on a dirt road I heard His voice drove me to my knees. I told knew if I did not accept Him that day I would be in Hell. Praise Jesus for His mercy and Graice.
I wish I could like this a hundred times, this teaching was so powerful. Thank you brother Joel for sharing. I cried and I repented. Thank you so much. God bless you.
Exactly, there is no comma in the original Greek text, so you have to figure out where to put it. Putting it before today, makes it contradict Jesus's own words to Mary, not to touch Him as he had NOT yet been to the Father. Plus it would contradict ALL the Old Testament verses about the state of the dead.
My Southern Baptist upbringing DID teach Hell & Brimstone in the 60's and early 70's......then it sort of disappeared and has never reappeared in most of the institutional churches to this day. Thank God I grew up in that small Southern Baptist Church w/ a pastor who taught right from God's Word. Those early teachings formed my belief system and have stayed with me to this day. You guys are like a fresh spring flowing directly from the rock struck by God.......I'm moving closer to God again and thank you very much.
I look at the suffering both You and Dalton live thru each day and compare my life with it......Oh Lord, please help me to find my true calling and learn what becoming humble as a lifestyle really feels like. Amen.
WOW Joel, Thank you..Thank you for sharing your life ..your heart with us.😢 To be honest I don't know what I would do without you and Dalton..I'm so thankful for you guys and the Bible studies. I'm still praying for Amy. May Elohim continue to bless you guys and keep you safe. ❤️ Maranatha.
We have to work with what we know. There is so much more beyond the veil. Knowing God's mind is impossible,He has given us what we need to know to make it into the kingdom. More will be revealed later.
Thanks Joel. This teaching is more humble, honest, and objective than your other teachings on hell. It aligns with your superior teaching as a whole. Few Biblical teachers have I met that are on par with you and Dalton… ESPECIALLY in respect to the Last Days.
This is one of the most powerful teachings that I’ve heard in these series. THANK YOU not only for the well explained topic but, also for sharing your pastoral heart and your. personal testimony as it helps us to understand about the practical way we must daily pursue the Lord in secret place. Personally, I’ve been inspired and compelled to love others by keep on sharing the gospel with sense of urgency.
Hi Joel we love your Bible teaching and your personal life it helps so much. We live outside NYC and we have literally no one to fellowship with and FAI is so special to us. We know your wife is very sick we pray every day for your family. What’s really special is all your going through you teach us with all your heart and we appreciate it more than you will ever know. FAI is all we trust in these scary times. Thank you again for sharing your life and it helps us to keep going forward even if we stumble at times. God bless you and your family. Maranatha
It is such a blessing to hear sound theology being taught. There is not one teaching I have listened to *or could find- that teaches about the reality of eternal damnation- which is scary but necessary and true.
I've died and experienced hell just like many others. What your speaking is the truth. He'll is ongoing punishment burning with the fire that does not quench.
Thank you for your testimony as it has brought me better comfort knowing this. My young (6 yrs) drowned accidentally. I held his body when his spirit was released. Over these many many years now you have made it so much better to understand. Again, thank you.
Thank you for sharing Joel. Very inspiring. I had visions of hell all through out my child hood and up unto my mid 20s before I accepted JesusChrist as my Savior.. Hell is most definitely real and I needed it to be real to repent and come to faith. Family you dont want to go there. Its exactly how its described.
The story about Ed, I think of my husband and his unbelief and all the things that I can’t imagine him tormented… man, that hit me… wow 😅 thanks man for sharing your heart ❤️
@@michelelarson6487 in that quote there is a very important part missing. The scriptures have "if possible" at the end. Matthew 24:24 basically says that even the elect will be deceived, if that were possible. I know that the enemy deceives me from time to time. No one is perfect and everyone sins but that is why we all should stay in His word so we can stand strong when the enemy temps us.
THANKS FOR BEING SO OPEN ABOUT YOUR TRIALS AND TESTINGS. Some times it feels as though we are the only ones experiencing these trials, but as Peter 4, says "THINK IT NOT STRANGE THE fiery trials which are to try you, also JAMES 1 , 1 to 4 as to the testing of our faith.
ThankU Joel for sharing your sad story and the very significant awareness that God gave you...it is for all of us..may the Lord strengthenU and protectU and u'r family and Dalton and all u'r work..I can't express what a blessing, are Uguys, for me..JesusKnows..thankUJesus.
Thanks a lot for this session, this was really impactful. I fully agree with you that annihilationism exists mostly due to our emotional bias. When I’m wrestling with this issue, I always go back to the moment when I got saved. There, I had the firmest conviction that I deserved hell. And I had always been a fairly “well-behaved” girl in the eyes of the world. For most people near me, I don’t think they ever thought that I deserved Hell. Similar to how we feel about our relatives. But when you have an encounter with a HOLY God, everything changes!! You realise how terrible you truly are. Far worse that what most people think of you... only we (and God) know our thoughts and intentions! I truly believe that when we see Him face to face, we’ll comprehend how just all His judgements are.
I was deeply touched by this teaching, specifically talking about your daily praying sessions ending with the view of yourself tied to the cross…. I wanted to receive a real preaching long ago, sometimes it seems western churches just focus on nothing but silly conferences about being nice to each other.
Proverbs 9:10 was the first verse I ever read in the Bible…I was 10 years old and my little best a friend, a regular church goer with her grandparents, gave me an old used bible for my birthday….My family never ever went to church…but, they berated my neighbors for giving me a “used” bible. I was just so awed that I got a bible!! I opened it right to Proverbs 9:10…Why? Only the Lord knows. But I remembered that verse, and, looking at the illustrations and reading the “red print” in that Bible throughout my young life, When I was 18, the Lord caught up with me and claimed me! Praise His name! I am now 66 years old and love Jesus with my whole heart.
Joel you say it may be possible that after a billion years that those in hell may be purged and brought out of eternal punishment. I would think that to be impossible on the grounds that when we fall into the hands of the living God we are in the eternal state where there’s no more time. No more billion years to tally up. Ecclesiastes 11:3 …if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be. P.S. I want to thank you,Dalton and the FAI family for a good dose of sound teaching in a time when so many are teaching fables. May the Lord continue to bless and guide you guys
Thanks for sharing, bro. The Lord gave me a night vision a couple of weeks after I came to faith and He took me out of the Pit- of me from His point of view. All I can say that is what I saw was a totally disgusting filthy, etc etc thing that deserved nothing more than hell. I wailed in repentance before the Lord- and still to this day do not understand the incredibly merciful nature of a God who gave His Son so that someone as disgusting as me (!!) could be saved. Thanks for the testimony. God bless you and your family!
Amen! I think the biggest failure and sin of the Church in the West is to be full of grace, but lack the full weight of the truth of the Scriptures. Jesus was both full of Grace and Truth. It's so sad that it's so hard to find a local church that submits to and boldly proclaims the full weight of scripture. It's impossible to understand the glory of God's grace without understanding the truth of God's holiness and our total depravity.
What possible purpose could God have for bringing billions of people into existence knowing beforehand that they would be rebellious and end up suffering forever?
@@caroleevandyk5544 it's for the good people that even comes out of the bad. It's like you have an apple tree that has 5,000 apples but you know only 50 of the apples are going to be good and out of the other 4,950 apples if you plant those seeds later on you get 50 more apples from each one of those trees. A lot of bad people come from a few good and a few good come from a lot of bad. The only reason we're here is God loves the good and willing to sacrifice all this pain and suffering for the good children. We all have the same choice we all had the same amount of time each day.
Okay I wasn't going to say nothing cuz I wanted to be quiet because I'm still being discipled, but I can tell you this the eternal conscious torment is very real let's just say that I know it had to have been a fragment of a second when I woke up immediately I said I do not want to be here Lord please have mercy on my soul. I can tell you this I repented of anything knowing or not knowing. And I stick very close to Jesus. Am I Holy ?only in Christ. Am I still in the state of overcoming yes. Is eternal torment real yes. God have mercy on us all only in Christ Jesus. 🙏
Last night during my prayer time, God brought me to these verses in Ezekiel 9:5-10 and I believe He wants me to deliver this message to the Local Churches as a warning especially to Pastors and Elders. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit of God says to the Churches: 5 To the others He said in my hearing, “Go after him through the city and kill; do not let your eye spare, nor have any pity. 6 Utterly slay old and young men, maidens and little children and women; but do not come near anyone on whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the temple. 7 Then He said to them, “Defile the temple, and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” And they went out and killed in the city. 8 So it was, that while they were killing them, I was left alone; and I fell on my face and cried out, and said, “Ah, Lord God! Will You destroy all the remnant of Israel in pouring out Your fury on Jerusalem?” 9 Then He said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of bloodshed, and the city full of perversity; for they say, ‘The Lord has forsaken the land, and the Lord does not see!’ 10 And as for Me also, My eye will neither spare, nor will I have pity, but I will recompense their deeds on their own head.” Hallelujah! To God be all the glory, all praises and honor belong to Him alone! Maranatha! Come Jesus, come! We are eagerly waiting for you, King Jesus!
End time teaching is being avoided in most churches because the teachers are avoiding controversy, the emotion is fear. How will we endure? Great message for the church!
Wow wow wow, thank you for this, I can’t stop Listening to y’all, y’all are real but hold to Truth. Amen brother! Y’all must be truth because every time I listen to anybody on here, the Holy Spirit screams TRUTH Mandy (that’s me lol) ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the encouraging words and teaching. I am 63 yes old and I thank Adonai daily for bringing me teachers to teach me what I need to know. Sending prayers and love from Eden,NC
Not me I want to live forever with God & Jesus on earth & I want all those around me to love God & Jesus- & I can’t wait till the head of the serpent is crushed because only then will there be true peace and justice on earth- so let your Kingdom come oh Lord
These 2 Brothers will be Given a DBL portion of Faith They ate the Two Witnesses in the End. God has Spoke this to me Several times 🙏 . Their teaching is Spot on, whitch Is Supernatual Father God, King Jesus Holy Spirit of Truth Bless them Both, Amen 🙏
Even as a Christian, there are some actions that can be hard for us to forgive; things that we consider to be the highest acts of violence. Sin is sin, but we tend to put different values on different sins, but you are right Joel; if not for the state we all are in, Jesus would not have had to gone through what He had.. all that pain and death. We have to try to have a world view more like Jesus, one of forgiveness and caring, even when it might be emotionally difficult to do so. I've battled this a lot in my life, but thankfully the Lord has helped me cope and deal with those thoughts and feelings. Thank you for sharing this very important and often avoided message; so many need to hear and understand the truth regarding the wages of sin. The Lord is the only path that doesn't lead to flame; we must trust Him to carry us for it's the only way.
Thank you Joel, particularly for sharing your honesty around getting our heads around, eternal torment. So hard to grasp. I really liked your take on what the redeemed are singing about in Heaven to illustrate how we fully embrace God's judgments on the other side. Thanks

We overcome the world by the power of the Blood and the power of our testimony. Great testimony.
Thy word have l hid in my heart that l might not sin against Thee.
Amen 🙏. HalleluYAH!
Your personal stories touched me deeply, thank you for sharing. Not exactly sure why I wanna share this here, but...here goes anyway.....I fell in love with that baby in the manger and when I learned he was the one on the cross, I believe I was saved. I was very young, 6 or maybe 7. I instantly became an enemy in my family, I was born into a deeply Masonic family. My life was spent seeking answers and living with a hodgepodge spirituality that's truly cringeworthy to me now. I was discouraged from even trying to understand the Bible, though I did try. I sought to understand God in a multiplicity of unbiblical ways. I believe I wasn't ever possessed, but I was so demonically oppressed, I doubt none but God could have seen the difference. Christ delivered me at 55. I ended up going no contact with everyone I ever knew. I made changes I could never have made due to the fear, but with God, I never felt safer. I didn't think it was possible to change so much, so quickly. It's difficult to start all over. I'd been gaslit all my life and no longer believed my lying eyes, ears, thoughts or beliefs. On the other hand, starting from that point has also been an incredible gift. When I realized I didn't know what the truth was, I did know WHERE the truth was...as soon as I realized it was the actual, True Jesus from the Bible that delivered me. It took me MONTHS to figure that out. Soon as I did, the face plant came next, rugburns included, thank you :) lol. Ever since, I've studied the Bible like I would if I were cramming for a final. And I am. God bless and thank you for being one of the voices of truth I can compare to Scripture and add to my understanding. There's so much to learn! It's amazing to think that the Holy Spirit was so incredibly faithful to lead me to good teachers....on YT! I stumbled a bit, but he straightened me out...thank God for Jesus....Maranatha!!!
Thank you for sharing your story. I have been praying for my son over 50 yrs to come to Jesus. He rejected me but worse he rejects following Jesus because his father brainwashed him years ago. I was very sad about him being so lost until I read your story. I will keep praying for him. It is sad when a person rejects their own mother, but more sad when they reject following Jesus. God bless!
@@junea7794 I can totally relate. My heart goes out to you. I know that pain too. I remind myself that God loves them so much more than I am able to, and continue to give them to him. He is faithful, and he is just, and he answers prayer better than I know how to pray. I've gotten to the place where I can pray for them and end with asking for his will to be done, knowing his will may be different from mine. I will pray in agreement with you for him. God bless.
@@junea7794, I'm sorry but my son has rejected me as well. Despite my screen name, I'm the mother of a wonderful son who finally stopped rebelling and found Jesus. I couldn't have been happier except he now rejects me, his mother. I had to be mother & father and never missed a ball game or karate tournament and made birthdays and holidays as special and festive as I could and made sure he got enough presents to feel loved but not so many that he was spoiled. How can he be so clear on the Lord and yet turn his back on me saying I was "selfish & uncaring"?? I'll pray for you and Broken Vessel. I'm hearing so so many mothers crying these same tears and I just don't get it. He admits I gave much more than my parents ever gave me but he's stubbornly resentful, neglectful & cold. I don't even know his phone number & my emails go unanswered for ages. The loneliness of not being able to have ant kind of conversation and always getting a short abrupt answer to all my questions which basically is shorthand for saying, "don't bother me anymore."
Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. I can relate in that I am Jewish, with Jewish parents. Growing up I saw how the Jewish community, including my family, had a true disdain for christians, Jesus and the cross. In my late 30's God began to soften and open my heart to Him and about 15 years ago I became a Christian (I am now 57). I am saddened at the thought of my entire family burning forever in the lake of fire. But trust in God's ultimate wisdom and justice. God bless you and Maranatha!!!
Thank You ĹORD God for blessing me to happen upon this God ordained website -
The part where you said, "you killed my son" really hit me. I knew that I am guilty of sin and that the penalty of sin is death. But to connect it in the way that yes, that same sin is ultimately what killed Jesus, deeply humbled me even more. Thank you for sharing your testimony. It was very moving and brought my connection to God even stronger. Thank you.
Thank you Joel. You demonstrated an honesty about your faith all to seldom expressed. I was greatly moved by your personal story. This truly helped me to understand how live in faith.
Thank you Joel prayers for you and your family. God never said our walk would be easy but He would be with us every step of the Way.
Thank you for this powerful teaching. The teaching of hell is essential. I love you Joel, Dalton, and FAI! God bless you all!
What possible purpose could God have for bringing billions of people into existence knowing beforehand that they would be rebellious and end up suffering forever?
@@caroleevandyk5544, He offers salvation to all for the taking. None of us deserves everlasting life in heaven even if we could possibly atone for our sins. Yet He sent His Loving Son to die in torment for us so that we may be granted freely what we could never earn on our own. If billions throw that away knowing the consequences, it's not God's fault. Would you ever supernaturally force someone to love you? No, of course not, because that love would have no value whatsoever. It wasn't freely given or given because that person saw how special you are and dedicated themself to you. The suffering is self-inflicted.
@@jamesjoseph9721 So you think everyone who ever lived actually knew the consequences of not trusting Christ? And you still did not answer my question. God says He “tells the end from the beginning”, so He knew before He created people that they would “choose” to rebel, and yet, you say He STILL chose to have these people come into existence, ONLY to end up suffering FOREVER after a few miserable years of life on this difficult, dangerous, broken earth. THAT is the best plan He could come up with? That is the most moronic, monstrous plan conceivable! Essentially He is creating people, ONLY to suffer forever. Is that really the God of scripture?
And do you ever stop to consider WHY it is that you find yourself believing in Christ, when statistically, your chances of being a believer, compared with all of humanity, are minuscule and your chances of being a nonbeliever are FAR greater. So what is so special about you that you “chose” Christ? How come you were so smart to make the “right” choice? Did you control where you were born, what kind of upbringing and exposure to the gospel you had, along with thousands of other factors that influenced you toward trusting Christ? NO YOU DID NOT! How much of your saved status can you take credit for? 10%? 20%? Because you are saying that without YOUR contribution to the salvation process, NO MATTER WHAT CHRIST DID, it’s NOT enough to actually save an individual. So God leaves THE MOST CRITICAL, STUPENDOUS decision completely up to a weak, sinning individual to make, with THE MOST HORRIFIC consequences if the wrong choice is made?
Seriously? Is that who your god is? You don’t think God causes and influences any of the factors that lead people to love His Son?
And if you say you can take no credit for your saved status, that God accomplished 100% of it through Christ, then if He saved you, why wouldn’t He eventually save everyone. God says He is no respecter of persons, so if He is able to save YOU, He can save all. Think about it.
@@jamesjoseph9721 What Joseph, no answer to my questions? Why not?
Saved people do God's WILL.
Unsaved people do their OWN WILL.
Springflowerblosom norris great quote! I gotta remember that!
@@susanroffman1612
If you are going to quote God's WILL, you should thank him too.
Amen! Understanding the reality of hell and that I was on the way there lead me to repent and believe the gospel. ❤
@Heidi Solie, God bless you on your journey!!!
God bless you and all of us in our journeys, Amen.
Father God empower US to TRULY be " KNOWN' BY YOU!!! LORD WE RENOUNCE the superficial living !
Father God empower US to live the SUPERNATURAL, SACRIFICIAL LIFE OF LOVE🙏🙏🙏🙏 HAVE MERCY ON US🙏
Powerful, challenging - this message, especially your personal experience testimony broke me. It is time for us to give up all the false doctrines we have allowed the world and our emotions to dictate our acceptance of. Thank you for this message.
Thank you Joel, you speak truth even when it is painful. May God keep using you. Maranatha!
This teaching hit me straight in the gut this morning. I needed this specific teaching today. Much love to you Joel!
I’ve been following and supported FAI for a long time now. Can’t emphasize how important it is for me to stay connected with this ministry and the teachings. Praying that it is pleasing to God for my wife and I to make it to Golan Heights in the near future.
I am Jewish, with Jewish parents. In my late 30's God began to soften and open my heart to Him and about 15 years ago I became a Christian (I am now 57). I am saddened at the thought of my entire family burning forever in the lake of fire. But trust in God's ultimate wisdom and justice. God bless you and Maranatha!!!
Thank you for sharing that personal experience that really touched my heart!
I came to the Lord 23 years on a dirt road I heard His voice drove me to my knees. I told knew if I did not accept Him that day I would be in Hell. Praise Jesus for His mercy and Graice.
I wish I could like this a hundred times, this teaching was so powerful. Thank you brother Joel for sharing. I cried and I repented. Thank you so much. God bless you.
Amen
Love the honest stories, straight talking perspective you bring the body.
I tell you today, you will be with me in paradise "at the resurrection
Exactly, there is no comma in the original Greek text, so you have to figure out where to put it. Putting it before today, makes it contradict Jesus's own words to Mary, not to touch Him as he had NOT yet been to the Father.
Plus it would contradict ALL the Old Testament verses about the state of the dead.
THE BEST sermon I think I've ever heard. Full stop.
My Southern Baptist upbringing DID teach Hell & Brimstone in the 60's and early 70's......then it sort of disappeared and has never reappeared in most of the institutional churches to this day. Thank God I grew up in that small Southern Baptist Church w/ a pastor who taught right from God's Word. Those early teachings formed my belief system and have stayed with me to this day. You guys are like a fresh spring flowing directly from the rock struck by God.......I'm moving closer to God again and thank you very much.
I look at the suffering both You and Dalton live thru each day and compare my life with it......Oh Lord, please help me to find my true calling and learn what becoming humble as a lifestyle really feels like. Amen.
Thank you brother Joel for this message... God bless you and your beautiful wife I hope her health is doing better in the name of Jesus!!!
WOW Joel, Thank you..Thank you for sharing your life ..your heart with us.😢 To be honest I don't know what I would do without you and Dalton..I'm so thankful for you guys and the Bible studies. I'm still praying for Amy. May Elohim continue to bless you guys and keep you safe. ❤️ Maranatha.
We have to work with what we know. There is so much more beyond the veil. Knowing God's mind is impossible,He has given us what we need to know to make it into the kingdom. More will be revealed later.
Thanks Joel. This teaching is more humble, honest, and objective than your other teachings on hell. It aligns with your superior teaching as a whole. Few Biblical teachers have I met that are on par with you and Dalton… ESPECIALLY in respect to the Last Days.
Cried with you for your friend for Jesus and your faith , Maranatha
Thank you for your service. I love your presentation, keep it up. GOD BLESS
Thanks brother for your teaching. Tough topic today, but undeniably true. Thanks for sharing your personal story as well.
This is one of the most powerful teachings that I’ve heard in these series. THANK YOU not only for the well explained topic but, also for sharing your pastoral heart and your. personal testimony as it helps us to understand about the practical way we must daily pursue the Lord in secret place. Personally, I’ve been inspired and compelled to love others by keep on sharing the gospel with sense of urgency.
Compelled!
Hi Joel we love your Bible teaching and your personal life it helps so much. We live outside NYC and we have literally no one to fellowship with and FAI is so special to us. We know your wife is very sick we pray every day for your family. What’s really special is all your going through you teach us with all your heart and we appreciate it more than you will ever know. FAI is all we trust in these scary times. Thank you again for sharing your life and it helps us to keep going forward even if we stumble at times. God bless you and your family. Maranatha
It is such a blessing to hear sound theology being taught. There is not one teaching I have listened to *or could find- that teaches about the reality of eternal damnation- which is scary but necessary and true.
That testimony at the end. Just wow. Wonderful. Thank you for sharing brother.
Thank you for sharing your personal story. Your teachings bless me every single time, I learn so much from you and Dalton!
I've died and experienced hell just like many others. What your speaking is the truth. He'll is ongoing punishment burning with the fire that does not quench.
Wow! Awesome testimony. Thank you, Jesus for your Word and Grace. Amen.
The best message you have ever done, Joel. Good job!
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! so very much for sharing your personal experience with The Lord it was so beautiful. 💚💙💜 GO IN CHRIST EVERY DAY.
Thank you for your testimony as it has brought me better comfort knowing this. My young (6 yrs) drowned accidentally. I held his body when his spirit was released. Over these many many years now you have made it so much better to understand. Again, thank you.
Thank you for speaking truth and sharing your story. I need to be quick to repent. Praise the Lord for your emotional rebuke. Maranatha!
Wow. ✝️🙏 amen and thank you.
Traditionalist ✋ ... as the Bible affirms. Salvat'n, Coming to the LORD God & Redempt'n is only thru Jesus - via His blood!
Thank you for sharing Joel. Very inspiring. I had visions of hell all through out my child hood and up unto my mid 20s before I accepted JesusChrist as my Savior.. Hell is most definitely real and I needed it to be real to repent and come to faith. Family you dont want to go there. Its exactly how its described.
The story about Ed, I think of my husband and his unbelief and all the things that I can’t imagine him tormented… man, that hit me… wow 😅 thanks man for sharing your heart ❤️
That was amazing. I am blessed to have found you guys. Thank you💙
FAI Your ministry is awesome God Bless
1:10:32 Joel, of all the sermons I’ve heard you preach - and yes, this is a sermon - this one has affected me the most profoundly.
Joel, good to see you brother. I pray that you and your loved ones are healthy and God will protect us all from being deceived by the enemy.
Hi, what does "even the elect will be deceived" mean? serious question.
No the elect cannot be deceived...the Word of God says IF POSSIBLE.
If you are under the Elijah ministry of Malachi 4 under the Eagle Anointing YOU CANNOT BE DECEIVED.
@@michelelarson6487 in that quote there is a very important part missing. The scriptures have "if possible" at the end. Matthew 24:24 basically says that even the elect will be deceived, if that were possible. I know that the enemy deceives me from time to time. No one is perfect and everyone sins but that is why we all should stay in His word so we can stand strong when the enemy temps us.
THANKS FOR BEING SO OPEN ABOUT YOUR TRIALS AND TESTINGS. Some times it feels as though we are the only ones experiencing these trials, but as Peter 4, says "THINK IT NOT STRANGE THE fiery trials which are to try you, also JAMES 1 , 1 to 4 as to the testing of our faith.
Excellent! Thank you!
ThankU Joel for sharing your sad story and the very significant awareness that God gave you...it is for all of us..may the Lord strengthenU and protectU and u'r family and Dalton and all u'r work..I can't express what a blessing, are Uguys, for me..JesusKnows..thankUJesus.
Thanks a lot for this session, this was really impactful. I fully agree with you that annihilationism exists mostly due to our emotional bias. When I’m wrestling with this issue, I always go back to the moment when I got saved. There, I had the firmest conviction that I deserved hell. And I had always been a fairly “well-behaved” girl in the eyes of the world. For most people near me, I don’t think they ever thought that I deserved Hell. Similar to how we feel about our relatives. But when you have an encounter with a HOLY God, everything changes!! You realise how terrible you truly are. Far worse that what most people think of you... only we (and God) know our thoughts and intentions! I truly believe that when we see Him face to face, we’ll comprehend how just all His judgements are.
Awesome and Amen!
That’s a strong message, God Bless you brother…thanks for that
Thank you, Brother Joel ✝️
Thanks Brother… Excellent show ✝️👍
Thanks for keeping it real, Joel!
I was deeply touched by this teaching, specifically talking about your daily praying sessions ending with the view of yourself tied to the cross…. I wanted to receive a real preaching long ago, sometimes it seems western churches just focus on nothing but silly conferences about being nice to each other.
Proverbs 9:10 was the first verse I ever read in the Bible…I was 10 years old and my little best a friend, a regular church goer with her grandparents, gave me an old used bible for my birthday….My family never ever went to church…but, they berated my neighbors for giving me a “used” bible. I was just so awed that I got a bible!! I opened it right to Proverbs 9:10…Why? Only the Lord knows. But I remembered that verse, and, looking at the illustrations and reading the “red print” in that Bible throughout my young life, When I was 18, the Lord caught up with me and claimed me! Praise His name! I am now 66 years old and love Jesus with my whole heart.
Joel you say it may be possible that after a billion years that those in hell may be purged and brought out of eternal punishment. I would think that to be impossible on the grounds that when we fall into the hands of the living God we are in the eternal state where there’s no more time. No more billion years to tally up. Ecclesiastes 11:3 …if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be. P.S. I want to thank you,Dalton and the FAI family for a good dose of sound teaching in a time when so many are teaching fables. May the Lord continue to bless and guide you guys
you've blessed my heart today brother❤
thank you for sharing, we need the truth. there's so many motivational speakers now that we hardly ever hear the truth..
Few forsake their sin and follow Jesus as it is without the threat of eternal punishment I wonder how many would end up being redeemed
Thanks for sharing, bro. The Lord gave me a night vision a couple of weeks after I came to faith and He took me out of the Pit- of me from His point of view. All I can say that is what I saw was a totally disgusting filthy, etc etc thing that deserved nothing more than hell. I wailed in repentance before the Lord- and still to this day do not understand the incredibly merciful nature of a God who gave His Son so that someone as disgusting as me (!!) could be saved. Thanks for the testimony. God bless you and your family!
Amen!
I think the biggest failure and sin of the Church in the West is to be full of grace, but lack the full weight of the truth of the Scriptures. Jesus was both full of Grace and Truth. It's so sad that it's so hard to find a local church that submits to and boldly proclaims the full weight of scripture. It's impossible to understand the glory of God's grace without understanding the truth of God's holiness and our total depravity.
Thank you, Joel! This was so powerful!
I needed to here that this word was for me thank u
I loved listening to this. Rhe anger, I fully understand. But I was in tears. Openly eyes more. God bless.
Eternal torment is not real because we believe it, it's real because Yeshua said it.
Where does he say that. If sin was eternal punishment in hell then why isn't Yeshua staying in hell to pay for my sin.
What possible purpose could God have for bringing billions of people into existence knowing beforehand that they would be rebellious and end up suffering forever?
@@caroleevandyk5544 it's for the good people that even comes out of the bad. It's like you have an apple tree that has 5,000 apples but you know only 50 of the apples are going to be good and out of the other 4,950 apples if you plant those seeds later on you get 50 more apples from each one of those trees. A lot of bad people come from a few good and a few good come from a lot of bad. The only reason we're here is God loves the good and willing to sacrifice all this pain and suffering for the good children. We all have the same choice we all had the same amount of time each day.
Okay I wasn't going to say nothing cuz I wanted to be quiet because I'm still being discipled, but I can tell you this the eternal conscious torment is very real let's just say that I know it had to have been a fragment of a second when I woke up immediately I said I do not want to be here Lord please have mercy on my soul.
I can tell you this I repented of anything knowing or not knowing.
And I stick very close to Jesus.
Am I Holy ?only in Christ.
Am I still in the state of overcoming yes.
Is eternal torment real yes.
God have mercy on us all only in Christ Jesus. 🙏
Last night during my prayer time, God brought me to these verses in Ezekiel 9:5-10 and I believe He wants me to deliver this message to the Local Churches as a warning especially to Pastors and Elders. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit of God says to the Churches:
5 To the others He said in my hearing, “Go after him through the city and kill; do not let your eye spare, nor have any pity. 6 Utterly slay old and young men, maidens and little children and women; but do not come near anyone on whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were before the temple. 7 Then He said to them, “Defile the temple, and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” And they went out and killed in the city.
8 So it was, that while they were killing them, I was left alone; and I fell on my face and cried out, and said, “Ah, Lord God! Will You destroy all the remnant of Israel in pouring out Your fury on Jerusalem?”
9 Then He said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of bloodshed, and the city full of perversity; for they say, ‘The Lord has forsaken the land, and the Lord does not see!’ 10 And as for Me also, My eye will neither spare, nor will I have pity, but I will recompense their deeds on their own head.”
Hallelujah! To God be all the glory, all praises and honor belong to Him alone! Maranatha! Come Jesus, come! We are eagerly waiting for you, King Jesus!
GLORY TO GOD
All I can say is thank you!
Incredible story about forgiveness. That’s A lot to think about. Thanks.
Wow! Just wow! Praise The Lord, and thank you so much for this teaching and sharing your testimony!
End time teaching is being avoided in most churches because the teachers are avoiding controversy, the emotion is fear. How will we endure?
Great message for the church!
The smoke of the torment will rise for ever !!!!!
Wow wow wow, thank you for this, I can’t stop
Listening to y’all, y’all are real but hold to Truth. Amen brother! Y’all must be truth because every time I listen to anybody on here, the Holy Spirit screams TRUTH Mandy (that’s me lol) ❤❤❤❤❤
This is so good, thank you brother 🙏
Great and very convicting sermon. Thanks for that !
God bless you brother 🙏
Thank you for the encouraging words and teaching. I am 63 yes old and I thank Adonai daily for bringing me teachers to teach me what I need to know. Sending prayers and love from Eden,NC
Powerful message Joel. Blessings to you, continue to be like David!
Not me I want to live forever with God & Jesus on earth & I want all those around me to love God & Jesus- & I can’t wait till the head of the serpent is crushed because only then will there be true peace and justice on earth- so let your Kingdom come oh Lord
Amen
These 2 Brothers will be Given a DBL portion of Faith They ate the Two Witnesses in the End. God has Spoke this to me Several times 🙏 . Their teaching is Spot on, whitch Is Supernatual Father God, King Jesus Holy Spirit of Truth Bless them Both, Amen 🙏
God bless you Joel be strong & endure🙏🏻
Really appreciated this teaching! Thank you so much.
One of your most powerful videos brother... Wow
Even as a Christian, there are some actions that can be hard for us to forgive; things that we consider to be the highest acts of violence. Sin is sin, but we tend to put different values on different sins, but you are right Joel; if not for the state we all are in, Jesus would not have had to gone through what He had.. all that pain and death. We have to try to have a world view more like Jesus, one of forgiveness and caring, even when it might be emotionally difficult to do so. I've battled this a lot in my life, but thankfully the Lord has helped me cope and deal with those thoughts and feelings. Thank you for sharing this very important and often avoided message; so many need to hear and understand the truth regarding the wages of sin. The Lord is the only path that doesn't lead to flame; we must trust Him to carry us for it's the only way.
Excellent word!
This was so helpful to me. Thank you!
Wow. Thank you. Thank you so very much for this teaching Joel. Thank you my brother. ❤️
Thank you, Joel!
It’s interesting to me that people are comforted by the idea of annihilationism. Nothing scares me more than not existing.
Thank you Joel, particularly for sharing your honesty around getting our heads around, eternal torment. So hard to grasp. I really liked your take on what the redeemed are singing about in Heaven to illustrate how we fully embrace God's judgments on the other side. Thanks
