I’m a paranoid schizophrenic. I been this way for the last 6 years. I also am a manic with severe depression. I’ve been to countless psychiatrists and therapists. But nothing helps, and I mean nothing helps like the word of God. I sleep better and am far more clear headed when I have God in my heart mind and soul. Meds can only do so much and then there is God. He is the best therapist, best teacher, best friend and most of all the best father. There are times when I might of left him but he never left me. He has an understanding and love like no other and it is truly unconditional. Much love to you Gentlemen and the content. Bless you and yours.
Sending prayers for you on your journey. May Father God & Our Lord Jesus always protect & guide you, in Jesus name we pray amen 🙏🥰
God bless you and in agreement that the saving grace of God through the Lord Jesus Christ overcomes all. We are all in need of His grace and mercy and can do nothing on our own. God can make beauty from ashes and you are an example. We all have issues we deal with and we still sin after we’re saved, but now we have the power through Christ to be forgiven and overcome. Take care and God bless!
God is truly the Great Physician.
He is a wonderful father and teacher!
Sounds like mee
Phil is so knowledgeable. He's so humble. He has such a wonderful way to share a Biblical lesson with us here.
Man Phil you hit this on the spot I’m a ex meth user I’ve been down both roads medicine was not my answer satan was hiding in the medicine it’s Jesus that free’s me from addiction and there is no other way in my book to do it. Praise god.
I'm grateful for your sobriety and for you showing the example of God in your life.
Your right about medicine not being the answer! God was the only one that could fix me! It took a lot of work on my part as well but man am I glad I refused man made remedies!
i wish i had an evening to sit down and talk to this family. Some of the most wholesome people around.
Right, I only live 5-6 hrs from them & would love to go see them some day. It warms my heart deeply to know this world has decent ppl living in it.
I haven’t thought about sin not being a part of our vocabulary in today’s world. This is genuinely interesting.
I’m a junior in college and I’m pretty sure the word sin wasn’t been mentioned once (including elementary middle and high school)
It's not because people are easily offendable.
That and people don't want to admit they are in the wrong and they genuinely need Jesus.

@@museaustin God was taken out of all the public schools MANY years ago unless you go to a Private school! I don't attend one until High School.
Yep. You should try using that word in front of certain non-Christians these days. Yikes. The response is no fun to be on the receiving end of, I can tell you that. This culture has co-opted language & weaponized it.
Dag gum it Jase! You're my brother and I love you. In fact I probably defend you more often than not but I ain't letting this one go... The patriarch was about to start preaching
A discussion that we all should be having. Without God in our lives we are lost.
My family is from southwest Louisiana not too for from Lake Charles. My Grandpa ran a state park after he received a bad injury on the railroad. He and my family are God fearing. Everything that my grandparents ate was either, out of the woods, out of the water, or out of the ground. He fished hoop nets, trot lines, and cane pole fished year around. He also had about 5-6 acres of land that he raised all sorts of vegetables on. During hunting season he would stay in the woods hunting deer, ducks, squirrel and other animals. The Robertsons way of life reminds me of my grandparents so much. We need more people like this in America. God Bless from the boot heal.
I have bipolar 1 and asperger syndrome which both of those have a tendency to cause anxiety. Right now I have taken myself off of my Xanax prescription because it's a terrible drug, so I'm withdrawing pretty hard. I thoroughly enjoy listening to you guys talk, because you guys are just spitting out wisdom that you learned from the Lord over the years oh, and it's such a blessing. Please keep this up guys.
May the Lord wrap His Loving , Healing arms around you , and up hold you as you come off your medication. I understand that struggle because I took myself off my meds too . Life with the Lord on the other side was much better .
Hope all is well with you Godbless
Wish you all the best, I will pray for you.
Good Morning Everybody.😊
Sending Blessings⭐️&.

My mother was manic depressive as well. Most of her episodes or hospitalizations were in the fall. It took me many years to realize sleep deprivation was what caused most of her problems. She lived on a farm and worked herself half to death all summer, planting a garden, gathering it in, canning and freezing what it took to feed a big family. And taking care of the animals. (My dad was a coal miner.)That caused her to lose sleep and wear herself out physically as well. She was hospitalized in the 60’s and they used electric shock therapy and it affected her memory. She did get her memory back over time though. My own battles with depression started in my 20’s. Medication does help but sleep is critical to keep the chemicals balanced in the brain for some people. I hope Phil or someone in the family reads this, it may help them to understand Phil’s Mom’s condition. God bless all the Robertson’s and all of the Unashamed Nation. 😀
Wow. Something as simple as sleep deprivation brings this on? Something to explore, thank you!
They zapped my Grandpa's Head with electricity, back in the day too!!! For Depression. He Never did get his memory back up to his dying day and had to be taken care of in a special home. They did this to Naomi Judd, for her depression problems, too, just made her Worse! Don't let anybody do this to you folks! They are overloading the brain, with Harmful Radiation, from manmade Electric and it overrides the Bio Electric, God runs us off of.
You're 100% right. Sleep and even the seasons changing. Due to lack of sunlight can trigger manic episodes or depression like symptoms in humans. Even with or without a disorder.
My mother received court order electric shock, she suffered because welfare took her 6kids one being 3 weeks old being breastfeed. My dad was the crazy one, drank, beat her. Lost all his money at a bar. My mother made do.
@@nonyabeezwax8693 God love your Mom, she had an extremely hard life. I cannot imagine what she went through even though my first marriage was abusive. I know a little about what she went through but got out of mine 7 years in. I hope you and your siblings are doing well. I'm sure your childhood was fraught with fear, and worry. I'm so happy you found Jesus and watch this podcast. It is so awesome. Society needs a lot more strong men of faith like the Robertsons. They are setting an example of good God loving men for the world. Be blessed!!!
God bless y'all 💗 Addictions is a life long battle but with God on your side it gets easier!!! Im 38 yrs old and started using at an early age of 10 and wow how thankful i am today bc god saved me from drug's!!! Amen
Been Working since i was about 33yrs on getting sober with God's saving Grace
Congrats! ❤
I was reading Romans today. And there's so much in the first 6 chapters about this very thing. Sin. And God turning people over to their depravity. 😭 We get further and further away from the truth.
Amen!!!!
"We" included you. You are not of the world, sister, you are sanctified and separated. Hallelujah
God Bless Phil Robertson and The Robertson Family as they ALL TRY to HELP SO MANY!
Amen...best thing I've heard all week
Amen 🙏
The counselor IS the HOLY SPIRIT. Thank you Men.
Bless y’all. It’s so good to see Christianity. Even here in WV, a Bible Belt, I’m surrounded by atheists and ungodliness. Hearing the word of god spoken by some of my favorite people is a win win. I get hunting knowledge and knowledge of God, Mankind and how to live life correctly.
Amen brother
As a mental health professional I pray all find their connection with God.
I have Complex PTSD (been through just about every traumatic, horrible event one can go through) AND I am a Christian. It is truly by God's Grace, His wonderful Son, that I am even alive. Here has been my experience (in a nutshell) in terms of dealing with the effects (the illness) due to enduring all these compounded traumatic events: The church, at the time, didn't want to recognize or "deal with" mental illness, that enduring molestation as a child, then rape as an adult from another authority figure, being in horrific car accidents with my parents, enduring other genuinely unjust situations as an adult, and a host of other things (later brought on by myself BECAUSE of those other events due to no fault or sin of my own) and how these events could affect a person's sense of self-worth, sense of trust in people (let alone God!), sense of self---who am I? In other words, a person's "mental health." Instead, they just wanted to kind of give the standard question and answer, "Why is there suffering in the world? Sin..." And while ultimately that IS the truth, they offered no real *genuine* desire to understand, no validation, no real guidance to healing. Many times people, Christians, suffering from mental illness are treated like the lepers were in the Bible, BY fellow Christians, and that's SO wrong and unbiblical. And then, at the exact same time, I had the mental health community, outright dismissing my faith in Jesus, flat out saying "there is no God; there's no such thing as 'good and evil'" (oh!!!), which is NOT untypical of them (and an answer to your question about why mental illness sufferers aren't improving). It is VERY common for mental health practitioners to view Christianity/faith in God/religion, as "irrelevant" at best, and as "an illness to be cured" at worst. So there I was between a rock and a very hard place. Oh, it was so crushing, and still sometimes is, and just added to my confusion and distrust of people, even God, at the time. The damage they did has been incalculable, worse than any of the original traumatic events I endured, which I've forgiven. So, here are my thoughts about this, because I DO think that after one has been subjected to horrible, horrible things, demonic spirits of depression and anxiety and nightmares, etc. can then enter the person; the sin of others' actions opened the door to these spirits: We do need counseling, but we need loving Christian counseling and spiritual help. But my question to Christian leaders has always been: Why don't/won't they lay hands on people and do a type of "exorcism" if they agree and believe these spirits of depression, etc. are demonic and fall on people? The usual answer: "Well, we don't believe in that kind of healing anymore. It's no longer applicable today, plus people will evade taking responsibility for their actions and recognizing their own sin... You should probably seek a mental health professional..." So, in all honesty, the Church in many ways, has failed to help (and I'm still a Christian... turns out, of course!, Jesus HIMSELF, has been my best, wisest and most loving therapist, praise God! He came to me because He knew I believed and was doing everything in my power to recognize my own sins and follow Him and change these things and myself, but that I was getting no help from the Church AND the world, so I'm very blessed in that sense) the "least of his" and the "broken" WHOM are the very people the church was/is supposed to be helping. The Church can't have it both ways, you know? You can't reject helping the needy, reject using the ways the Bible has instructed His leaders and followers to, send them to worldly counsel, and then sit back, surprised, and say, "Wow? Why are so many people depressed in the world? And getting worse instead of better? Why is there so much vitriol? So much addiction? So much pain in people's lives?" I pray there comes a day, if Jesus doesn't come back soon which I'm thinking/hoping He will, when churches will have elders who are trained to understand mental illness, who have the gift of discernment and wisdom, who **truly** know and understand God's Word and teachings and WON'T mangle His Word and water it down (which a lot of "Christian" counselors unfortunately do, simply calling themselves Christians but then following a strictly secular therapeutic model of counseling, which again is of no true help to the hurting, nor does it honor God), and genuinely reach and help these hurting souls. My thoughts for whatever they are worth. Thank you for addressing this topic, and peace of Christ to you all.
May I ask are you on meds? I wonder how God feels about meds. They age women quite fast so I am wary
@@SuperLeavemebe not as fast as men do
Sounds Alot like my story. You can't trust anyone except God alone
I feel you on so much of this. It’s hard with what we have going on. I went through childhood things similar to yours then no joke… 4 wrecks but one had taken me to the point of madness before Christ
Dv survivor that advocates for gun rights on that front and that’s been giving me hope but god has given me more hope
When I was twelve years old, I was asked by a counselor if I heard God speak to me. I said yes. That started a long, long, long journey of being medicated, sedated and berated with the worlds Practice of medicine. It was all a spiritual battle. Sin had entered my life and demonic influence through that sin. After I TRULY gave my heart to Jesus and changed the Sin in my life, 20 years later, all the mental health issues started to go away. It took some healing by The WORD but, I Know that I Know, that I Know that EVERY word in His Word is true. HOLY SPIRIT in, Sin and Mental Health issues Gone.
You are loved by The God. In all of his Majesty and WONDER, he chose us.
I have severe mental and physical illness. I am also a believer in Christ. While Jesus set me free, gave me hope, filled my body with light; I can tell you Phil, that only medications can 'truly' put me in a position, where I can worship God fully. Otherwise, I am a raving lunatic, and cannot help it. It hurts so much to be how I am. I have prayed and prayed and prayed. I have written the Bible out by hand, and fasted numerous weeks at a time. I try very hard, yet, I am burdened by unbelievable physical and mental anguish, which has lasted 10 years. Medications are the only thing which provided unbelievable relief, to the point where I can worship God. If I did not take medication, I would isolate in my home, and never go to church. I am too much of a burden to everyone else by my yelling and screaming. I want to do right so badly. Please Phil, understand that their are Christian brothers and sisters out there, who 'have Christ,' yet their symptoms, are better controlled with medication, than the Bible.
I agree Phil's points about Sin as Sin.
I come from a family that has been affected deeply by mental illness. I struggle with major depression, while my brother has paranoid schizophrenia. In addition, both of my parents had anxiety issues.
My relationship does not exist because it is not healthy for him to be in my life since he is an alcoholic.
Phil's comments lead me to an understanding about sin and mental illness that begins with how I respond to my anxiety. Do I use God's word, or do I unleash my sinful nature? Mental illness is not an excuse to sin, but it can be a great propeller towards his grace. God can use our lives experiences to draw him to him without wasting anything.
Let's pray for everyone who has a mental illness.
Phill I love how you said “conscience” that is the Holy Spirit inside of us
We have been propagandaed to for so long that we comermize truth to fit are own selfess ways. Your right Phil. It's called sin in the Bible and that is what it is. Thank you my Brother for keeping it real and simple.🔑💯💓🙏 Blessings to you and the family!!!💓🙏
I wish I knew someone from this amazing family read my comments.
I hope somehow they know I needed this at this moment.
Not only for me but others who have had this very discussion with me, and me with them. The mind is a wonderful thing and I love how this is explained.
Your not alone! I NEEDED it too!! 🙏🥰
I’m watching through these videos daily. This one hits home! I was abused as a child. Badly. I’m 45 now. Could never afford a councilor to work through my issues. I had to train myself and my mind daily on how to be gentle, kind and non reactive in a violent way. For those who aren’t sinning but are trying to get out of brainwashing and violent training, councilors are so needed!!
Quit pooping in the middle of your house...classic and so relevant to different dynamics. Well said
Before Christ, I pooped in my house all the time. Metaphorically speaking, of course. Lol
There will be no real Joy and peace and Happiness without God being in the center of your life.
phil ur word of jesus has struck my heart i pray more i beg for humblness im trying find a bible i can see but ur story and words hit so hard in my life and im lost and in between heaven and hell in my life ima old hillbilly from raccoon ky please pray i find jesus more n more cause i pray so hard for salvation and peace of mind in jesus ty sir for ur words and many prayers to show a sinner like me how jesus wants me to learn
Phil, I love you brother! You are one of very few, it seems, that actually speaks with Godly wisdom and truth. Please don't ever stop. Jesus is the only Way! Hallelujah! All praise to our King!
Once again free thinker is confused..... We have morals because we have a soul. If you don't believe, why are you always watching these podcast and trying to convince believers that they're wrong?
It's not about feelings. It's about FAITH. I realize I can't prove the existence of a soul in a way that would satisfy you but I believe the words of Jesus. If I'm wrong, what have I lost? If you're wrong, you have lost everything that matters in this life and the next. I do hope you find God before its too late. I will be praying for you.
It's pretty clear that you can't understand faith. Why does it bother you so much that people have faith? Jealousy perhaps? You seem to spend allot of time trying to convince people that God is not real. Why is that? Who are you really trying to convince?
@Free Thinker you got the definition right... Or at least the Bible got it right... but there's no way someone who doesn't have faith or has never experienced it can begin to understand it. Look, I don't have all the clever answers and comebacks that you're probably looking for. I don't know the Bible from cover to cover like allot of people do but I have seen and felt God in my life and I really don't care what anybody else says. There's nothing you can say to me that will make me question my faith or the existence of God. I hope this doesn't sound mean or dismissive but There is nobody on this planet who could ever convince me that God is not real. I don't want to keep going back and forth with you because somebody is gonna get upset and that's not gonna do either of us any good. I do hope you find what you're looking for because it seems to me that you want to believe but you haven't found "proof" yet. Try talking to him. He's always listening. Have a good evening
Which is the very definition you cited... I DO see and feel God I'm my life on a daily basis. I'm sorry you haven't yet but I'm hopeful you will. Since you're the person launching the argument, can you prove God doesn't exist? I'll go ahead and answer that for you, because you can't. I don't need to prove the existence of God to you or anybody else. You're the one trying to convince yourself and all of us that he doesn't exist so the burden of proof is on you. Why does it bother you so bad that people believe in God? You seem to have made it your mission to convince us hes not real. You spend allot of time watching these podcast and arguing against them. Why? What has happened in your life that made you feel the need to convince believers that God isn't real?
Thank you Phil. I watch you everyday. You remind me what faith is all about.❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Phil..your voice is so comforting, relaxing & stress relieving 👍
I just wanted to say thanks for these pod casts as they were EXACTLY what I have been looking for.
Amen, so many false teachers in the world so he is one of the few I listen to these days. Voddie Baucham is great too.!
Good preaching Brother Phil! I don’t have to be bound no more. Zach - Less talking inside your head, more listening inside your heart when Brother Phil is trying to tell us we don’t have to be bound anymore.
This is my first time listening to this! I will be checking in often! I was diagnosed at 13 with bipolar 2 with manic depression and some other things. I was an ex meth addict and alcoholic on top of it all....I have been baptized as a child and again later with my oldest child. I work in nursing. I have been clean for years off the meth but only clean 5 months from alcohol and recently shut down all social media.... I AM under major attack now!!! I'm holding strong and need these messages! I'm diving into the Lord but my goodness I have never been attacked so hard in my dreams and I have cried non stop...I've tried all meds but they make everything worse! The only thing that comes close to peace is God! Keep doing what your doing!!!
Zach, you did a great job. I appreciated your ability to kindly remind the viewers that the words we choose to express our thoughts are very important. Naturally, many use the phrase “I saved”...when we know saving comes through Jesus by means of the Holy Spirit. We, are only the vehicle used BY the Holy Spirit...so HE GETs ALL the Glory for every new believer. We know Phil knows that; however does not say it. Great session, I appreciate each one of you.
Phil thank you so much for bringing the Bible and your wisdom to us on here so we can watch and listen to. You are very intelligent. I appreciate you and you family.
Hi Mr Phil I enjoy your show so much your beliefs are how my grand daddy raised us you explain things to where I can understand it and that means a lot thanks for yalls time
We all sin. Every day. Not always physically out even outwardly. Some times we sin in our hearts or minds. It be something as simple as passing judgment on someone because of the way they chose to act in a particular instance. We will never be sinless, not any of us. If it were possible to be sinless then we wouldn't need our saviour Jesus Christ.
Right, 'not I doing it, but sin in me' Paul, Romans ch. 7
AMEN!!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings and experience. You are an inspiration.
Amen 🙏
My precious Mom (1928-2002) dealt with mental illness all my life. In later years doctors settled on the diagnosis bipolar illness (formerly known as manic depression). She had frequent periods of delusions and hallucinations and in fact got so bad our grandparents had to step in and were guardians of my sister and me for much of our growing-up years. Mom was classic Jekyll and Hyde - she said and did things during the exacerbations that she would have been horrified about under normal circumstances. Mom taught me about and led me to Jesus when I was 4 or 5 and was the sweetest, most gracious and loving person I’d ever known, when she was “at herself.” She was also an alcoholic but got sober in 1987. Because she was a nightmare in the deepest throes of her illness, we weren’t around her much growing up. But I’m confident she’s finally healed and with Jesus Christ, and I can’t wait to be with her and make up for lost time. I’ll not want to ever let her go!
Thank u for sharing this.
God bless the Robertsons, God bless us, and God bless America!
Between Phil Robertson and Jordan Peterson I’ll be okay 👌🏼 ✅
I love these types. I enjoy the interludes of story time, but the discussion on scripture is my favorite.
Zach had a challenging job keeping the discussion focused.
Y’all remind me of how things were when I was a kid. Wish I could find a church in Nashville with folks like y’all
Amen Phil God is Love in always with us .Bless you and your family. Love you all.
I sure love this podcast it gets better every week love you guys. God bless
love phil he has such wisdom and God is truly working through him
God bless all of you !wonderful men of God!
Thank you Phil♥️
You’re stand means MUCH!
Prayers for 🔥🔥🔥🔥upon ya’lls life
Sir thank you for doing this program my sons and I are thankful to have substance and the word applied to life situations . And bringing God back into the conversation.
Phils family is the best thing in tv history and the podcast is for these last daysGOD BLESS ALL US
Phill nailed it on this one. I'm 71. Thanks to you all.
I am so thankful for y'all! I listen to Unashamed and can't get enough. I tell people I run into about your podcast. People today are conditioned to go to the doctor and pop a pill. There are cases where medicine is helpful don't get me wrong. I listen to Phil's testimony and Miss Kay and it thrills me! God has the answers to all our problems. But...we have to ask for forgiveness of our sins and for him to come into our hearts to set us free! The truth, people don't want to hear but it's the truth that sets us free! Thank you so much for your podcast and being transparent Phil. God bless you Sir. From a Nana in Texas! 🤠🇨🇱
I get so much out of your shows. Thank you for all you guys do. GOD BLESS YOU ALL
Thank you Mr. Phil for standing up and saying what no one else has the internal fortitude to state. God is the answer to all our problems. Man thinks he knows more than God but man is a fool. God bless you and your family. ♡
Fantastic episode! I was writing in my journal about this very thing before I even turned on the Podcast! The Holy Spirit definitely was guiding me! Praise the Lord❤🙏
What a great bible study! Thank you for the spiritual food!
I love that Phil says what he believes, and he’s not trying to play the correctness game but goes hard with GODs word. The truth is that GOD gives people over to their own sin sometime, and sin is irrationality
Absolutely right what you’re teaching there. Thank you 🙏
I have never thought of it this way before you are an incredible man thank you
God, family, country..... the three most important things. Pray for your family and country. Keep working hard for family and country. Vote for your country, family and God. God BLESS America.
Thank-you brothers
See we live in the shadows, but God loves me and I find my identity and him, I had an identity crisis when I was around so much trauma that took place to me but God is a healer of everything
great job guys. i truly enjoyed this topic because it's something i've been thinking about for years. it's really helpful.
I've certainly noticed that much of current society no longer uses the word "sin" and have distanced themselves from this word "sin" while bullying the opposers of sin to "build tolerance" for sin. I use the word "sin" and most sinners seemingly condemn me for using the word "sin".
Yeah nobody wants to hear it or people don't want to hear it and I could talk more but I'll just say you stand strong for Jesus christ unashamed.
Jase, you are so blessed and articulate. Phil wants us to never sin, I worry for him about his boasting… love you guys 💕
Phil adds to the thoughts. I have noticed. He seems to lay it down with more clarity, simpler
Thank you, Brothers, your word's are True and help people.
I have a request can y’all please add captions to the videos. Because there are times I can have the volume high and captions would assist in watching the videos.
I love what y’all are doing. And God bless!
I feel like youtube decreases the volume on content that they do not agree with.
Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY
Bless you all
A few years ago I was taking antidepressants . After I was baptized I told myself I'm not taking these pills anymore, I put my trust in Jesus to help me with depression. Well guess what? I feel better now than I have ever felt in my life. Praise God !! !!
One of my favorite words from God came when dealing with a man who was diagnosed with the onset of dementia.
He told me, "It's not a disease, it's a demon. Cast it out."
After doing so, the man was immediately set free, believed in Jesus and was filled with the Holy Spirit.
That's the power of our awesome God! His truth sets captives free!
Sometimes you just gotta deal with the truth and let it be what it is, no matter what anyone thinks about it.
Lives are at stake.
Man, these guys are talking about me. I suffered from mental illness but I also knew a lot of the things that I did was wrong. I think the worst sin I’ve ever committed was turning my back on God. I stopped listening to my conscience and did whatever pleasured me no matter the consequences. Thank you guys for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.
Thank you guys for posting this I needed this!
I have to stop reading the comments. People are so rude and judgmental. I love every second, every word and every person on these podcasts.
I only see good comments
Potty training a dog is not accomplished by hitting or rubbing his nose in his poop. He only learns that you are not a good person and will avoid you. Crate train the dog until he learns to poop outside. After he gets up in the morning, after he eats, before he goes to bed take him outside to go to the bathroom. Until he gets it he stays in his crate. If he is outside the crate in the house do not allow him to be alone on the loose. I trained many dogs with this system and never failed. The best training is to catch them in the act. Tell him a stern no then carry him or take him out to his "spot" outside. Tell him peepee or poopoo. He'll eventually "get" it.
Dad is spot-on.....great discussion Men
Truely blessed perception 🙏
Phil is 100% right ✅
Phil is so right on. Praise God. We gotta get people to realize who they are in Christ Jesus. People gotta believe in it for it to change their life. Jesus is THE WAY, not a way. Others imitate the way. He is THE WAY.
Thank you Jesus, and y’all for the word of God.
More ppl need to live like you & Kay. God created this world & provides everything. I've become a naturalist & I'm excited & ready for the rapture. I wish I could live by a river & live off the land. God bless y'all for being real. This world is definitely in need of more like you.!
The moment I came back to Jesus, my heart became still, the worries of the world no longer weigh on my heart, I have peace, I can tell you... Nothing will ever bring you peace but Jesus in your heart... Period
Amen! Amen!
“Pray for-for wisdom for all who will vote in this upcoming election, that hearts awaken to the Truth as to the path labeled change, progressive and new, for the defeat of radicals, for the grandeur of peace In all hearts and amongst all nations.” Holylove
Hello from Delaware blessings to you all
More studies and less stories
Love it makes studying much better keep up the good work
I love this
There are Christian counselors. For a christian this is a true benfit. A godly anointing.
Love this rant from Phil. Oldie but a goodie. Park it right there, preacher.
I had struggles for years with sin and drugs, I tried it both ways to get better and change. It was not until true believers of the gospel got a hold of me and cast the demons out of me and began discipleship that I finally my life changed. Now people don't even recognize that I was part of that lifestyle (Praise God) they simply see me as "that Christian woman".
Jesus is King
Actually when the holy spirit is present that is all the peace and the best feeling in the world
I am 28 and came back to God! It is interesting that seems to be the general age. My life is so much more peaceful and full of love. God Bless!
Excellent discussion and bible study.
Im new to watching this family, reading their books and following them. Im sure millions are lol. Still, I truly cherish their beliefs. I'm a pentecostal gal thats always asking for forgiveness 😌
Im glad to be back on my walk with God at the late age of 38 !
Better now than not, sis!😃 please don't condemn yourself..if your sin is confessed, you are loved and forgiven by God...receive his grace, in Jesus' name!
Just know apostolic period was short. Pauline epistles direct toward doctrine and scripture.
Does sin make a person depressed or mentally ill? Without great details, my life at one time got out of control. I am a Christian and have been for most of my life, but I found myself being taken to the mat. All of a sudden my life was in trouble as my marriage to a Christian woman was falling apart in every way and for every reason you are probably imagining. I reached out for help from family, friends and even professionals. My life got dark, so very dark. I tried to pray, but could not reason. I was in a black hole and my entire life was being presented to me in flashbacks to every single sin in my life. I wanted someone to listen to me and to help with the pain. I turned to scripture and everything I read was making me think my sins were so great, God could not really love me. I was now believing that I was the one person in the world that God would never love or forgive. This went on for a few months. And my marriage ended and my personal worth was gone..... Yet, I continued to search for answers. I wanted to hear from God!
I was on the mat for the next several years, but still searching. But my life was improving as I had remarried. I was given a chance to start that part over, but was still under the pressure of the past. My new wife would send small devotionals from the company she worked for and I kept searching. One day I was searching for forgiveness from God and turned to the internet to answer if God really listed people as never being able to be forgiven. And in that I saw an article from a national ministry organization and read a Bible study dealing with my past. It dealt with my life. I learned that it was guilt and shame from my sins that kept me from God. That satan was using my past and keeping me buried in my sins and shielding me from the Gospel truth. It was my sins that took me to the lowest part of the depths of an earthly hell that you could find. My depression was a result of my choices and my guilt. My guilt was made possible because I had always thought I was better than what I had become. I lived a lie in me. Why? I had been saved as a young person..... As I started to re-study scripture and started to share with a fellow believer at work. I discovered I had not put on the armor of God. I had not grown wise in Christ. I started to learn Christ in a brand new way. I came to understand more how Jesus was more of a man than what I thought and spent time for 30 years learning His father and His wisdom to prepare for His ministry.
Sins are a powerful issue that can keep you from the presence of God. Even for a believer, we can turn from God just like the prodigal son in Luke. But God does not turn from us! Sins lead to missing the fruits. It can destroy and it can waste. I am here to testify that the debt and guilt and shame of sin will lead you mind to serious illness of the body and the soul. I am thankful for the message from Phil and Jase. It fills my heart with joy and keeps me wanting more. The gospel of Christ is so much better than what I thought I thought!
At 18:16 "you are a body with a spirit." You've got that BACKWARDS. We are a spirit that currently has an earthly body.
