Bishop Barron is my rock, with Tim becoming a real beacon and foundational stone in an ever maturing faith journey. Thank You, Lord for sending these messengers of faith.
Wow, incredible sermon. I've never heard a pastor welcome doubt and "poking and prodding" of the Christian faith before. Your perspective on faith is inspiring and enlightened, Thank you so much Dr. Tim! God Bless You.
What he is describing as poking and prodding is asking the Holy Spirit questions as you read scripture because it is He who brings understanding or insight or "seeing". Faith really begins with scripture then it progresses to seeing because you asked and the connections came. In very simple and uncomplicated terms, faith is seeing an unseen reality. It is the Word and the Spirit working together. That's where faith comes from.
Right on the money. This message needs to be shared in short as you are sharing the gospel and the full response to the gospel in obedience to Jesus. Many non-believers, atheist agnostic skeptics know full well what faith is on these terms as it takes a lot more faith to be an atheist among other statuses then it takes to be a Christian.
Always love Tim’s teaching, but did anybody else have goosebumps listening to Micah read the word?? WOW!!! Never heard anyone read scripture like that! Anointed for it! Micah, consider doing an audio book of the Bible! For Heaven’s sake, literally.
The Lord God used this message to pierce through my heart and surrender all unfaithfulness to him. This elementary lesson about faith was something I completely missed and therefore, struggled in my walk in it. Thank you for this video and God bless you abundantly for acting on your faith to serve Him.
We live with ourselves all our lives and come to know and doubt what we are capable of while falling short in the understanding of just who Jesus is and what He is capable of. "..able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think,"
Leah Chavez I just recently was taught by the Holy Ghost. This is my urgent message for the world. Whosoever can receive it. Bless you Leah. Everybody needs to know this! The whole world is drunk on the doctrines of Babylon! INCLUDING and ESPECIALLY the visible Christian church. PLEASE if you can sense the deadness of the institutional churches and different ministries but can't put your finger on it. I'm pleading with you to understand something very important here.

Mystery Babylon The Great is the Vatican - “And the woman which thou sawest, is that great Citie which reigneth ouer the kings of the earth.” - Rev 17:18 And she has harlot daughters which represent the protestant churches. And “the Abominations Of The Earth” are corrupt scriptures. And the final bible that will unite all faiths is called Wormwood/the Abomination of desolation. cvillebiblebaptist.com/AdultEducation/Vatican%20and%20United%20Nations%20Bible.pdf And Jesus Christ is calling His people out.
Rev 18:4 “And I heard another voice from heauen, saying, Come out of her, my people, that yee be not partakers of her sinnes, and that yee receiue not of her plagues:” The most important thing to understand is that GOD CAN BE TRUSTED to preserve His word for every generation forever as He promises us in Psalms 12:6-7 and you do not need men to teach you. 1 John 2:27 “But the anointing which ye haue receiued of him, abideth in you: and yee need not that any man teach you: But, as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is trueth, and is no lye: and euen as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” It’s vital to know, especially right now, that God has kept His word in tact. There is still an every word testimony with us!

But nothing ever did. I must have walked a thousand isles. It had gotten to a point where a friend at the time said, “just try and sing". He meant well, but it was always disingenuous so I never did. Long story short - my whole Christian life was that way until recently. (powerless) God has since opened my eyes and I trust Him alone. I really hope this reaches somebody.

@@gL1135 Saving faith is the gift of God. It is not something we are born with or can muster up. Saving faith is not a work of the flesh, but of the Holy Spirit. Why do you need me to explain Scripture? These are Jesus' words, not mine.
Dear Tim, thanks for untangling these big topics that seemed unreasonable to me. By the love of Jesus, I’m coming together with the messages and becoming a part of me. I love what you do for Jesus. Thank you!
Dr. Mackie is exactly right that faith is action not just simply belief. Faith as defined by Apostle Paul in Romans is “active obedience” or a response to your belief. Dr. Mackie gives such great examples like the flower blooming after the snow as metaphor of Jesus’ resurrection! He is such a great teacher! Thanks Dr. Mackie!
I love Tims delivery and they way the brings The Word alive for me, as an English person I have never experiance Church in this way, and gave up trying...... I would love to know if anyone knows of a Church like this in the UK...I would love Pastor Tim to create a CD of him singing the Hebrew preyers it is so beautiful and moving.... Many Thanks Susie
Start one yourself if you can't find one. You don't need much more than a couch, a Bible and a few friends. Start with one of Tim's videos weekly... Just a thought.
I feel the full weight of obedience as faith is described to me… following Jesus becomes more difficult the more I learn about it. I feel my faith is so weak and petty. I pray God will save me from being tempted beyond what I can bear.
I thank GOD that I came across The Bible Project and now Tim's sermons. My children have learned so much about the bible thanks to The Bible Project. I've learned SO much from Tim's sermons - and I LOVE watching them, they're never boring and always give me a new way of looking at things I either thought I understood or helped me to understand things I've struggled with. Tim helps wash away the dust of the world every day so I can focus on Jesus. God bless you Tim and your family! Thank you from me and my family!
I was thinking about whether faith is based on reason or on something else when listening. I would rather say it is based on experience. You would only sit down on an "invisible" chair if you trusted the person guiding you there. So faith is based on the experience you made with that person. (Tim was trusting himself and the audience who told him to step a bit to the left.) If you experienced that this person was trustworthy then when you have to trust again, you have reason to think it is safe trusting the person even though you don't know if it is actually safe. Having faith in God is similar. You hear the word/gospel which makes curious. But trust does not develop from reading alone, because you would trust only people whom you know. That is why I think each one of us have to make their own experience with God and see that he is trustworthy. Then only you can reason that God will do something for you, which is yet unseen. So faith is the result of a relationship with God that starts with a word of truth about Him. That is the thought covered by the different translations of Hebrews 11:1 in my opinion. Else faith was only rational. God bless, Thomas
I started a quest a number of years ago that I called the mechanics of faith and this is the best explanation that I could find. With me it was the failure to make the connection between belief and action even though I used an example of turning on electric light as being an example of faith.
Faith begins with a relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ...as we build our relationship with God over time, we learn to trust in his calling in our day to day lives. A relationship with God requires learning and understanding his Word in the Bible and praying to him everyday so that He can bless our life and help us live according to His will.
Tim, thank you for your faith teachings made available to us. The word never grows old and the teaching is always relevant. Always ready to open eyes. Bless you.
Faith: Reason rooted in the evidence of promises past kept, that fuels future assurances. If you desire faith, seek something that keeps it's promises.
It is extraordinary sermon about faith. It indeed require rational understanding which derive from God, which let us meet Him and understand Him more once we search him.
I know your comment is 9 months old, but welcome back to this awesome video. I would just like to say: He has a doctorate lol. He is a subject matter expert and VERY versed in this, which is just...so awesome of a change
Thank you so much for your lessons. This is no ordinary sermon... but extraordinary in-depth study. There is no excuse not to be literally shaken up by the verses in the Bible which can fix us firmly in our Christian faith.
Beautiful reading of Hebrews 11, Thank you Micah. May YAHUAH bless Bro Tim as he continues to seek and teach the Truth, not shrinking back when the ruach connects obedience to the Shabbat, Feasts and dietary commands. By faith we believe the Word and set aside the doctrines of men for this is not our home...we are looking for a better land like Avraham.
Faith is tied to the kingdom, "the here, not not yet fully". A Christian lives by faith knowing Jesus has enacted his Kingdom, and yet the world has not been completely transformed.

That is why I think each one of us have to make their own experience with God and see that he is trustworthy. Then only you can reason that God will do something for you, which is yet unseen. So faith is the result of a relationship with God that starts with a word of truth about Him.
That is the thought covered by the different translations of Hebrews 11:1 in my opinion. Else faith was only rational.
God bless, Thomas
I started a quest a number of years ago that I called the mechanics of faith and this is the best explanation that I could find. With me it was the failure to make the connection between belief and action even though I used an example of turning on electric light as being an example of faith.
Faith begins with a relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ...as we build our relationship with God over time, we learn to trust in his calling in our day to day lives. A relationship with God requires learning and understanding his Word in the Bible and praying to him everyday so that He can bless our life and help us live according to His will.
Micahs voice captivated me. I would like to hear more from him.
This is truly a teaching that is needed, thank you !
Tim, thank you for your faith teachings made available to us. The word never grows old and the teaching is always relevant. Always ready to open eyes. Bless you.
I absolutely love Tim Mackie’s ministry!
Thank you Sir for your hard work and transparency. I’m 57 and so blessed by your long hard efforts in studying.
The example of faith and the flowers is perfect.
Amen that last prayer was emotional and beautiful .Shalom to you all.
Faith: Reason rooted in the evidence of promises past kept, that fuels future assurances.
If you desire faith, seek something that keeps it's promises.
From the big picture to the smallest detail, Tim tells the stories from the Bible in understandable ways and a depth as to be life changing
Thank you Dr Tim for this talk! I understand now why Jesus said our love for one another shows the world we belong to Him.
Absolutely remarkable Tim. Thank you very much for all that you do. God bless you brother 🙏🏽
excellent sermon. thank you
What an excellent teaching, a more perfect way to look at these verses, Thank you Pastor Tim!!
What a gift of such a voice to hear God's word from!
I love the Bible project! So great to hear this
oh my God .. such a blessing!
It is extraordinary sermon about faith. It indeed require rational understanding which derive from God, which let us meet Him and understand Him more once we search him.
This guy is incredibly gifted. Wow, thank you Jesus
He didn’t even need notes for his sermon.
I know your comment is 9 months old, but welcome back to this awesome video.
I would just like to say: He has a doctorate lol. He is a subject matter expert and VERY versed in this, which is just...so awesome of a change
Lol
Great teaching. Thank you Jesus!
Wonderful explanation of Faith and what it actually means to have faith, Thank you very much Tim.
So thankful for these Tim Mackie Archives. 🙌 thank you for your insight!
This sermon and verses are very relevant on recent days.
We need faith to endure on last days
Thank you for this. I have never had Faith explained as well as you did it.
Thank you Sir for the valuable message..!! May God bless you abundantly for his way..!
WOW! I didn't know Tim could sing.
This is an excellent message. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your lessons. This is no ordinary sermon... but extraordinary in-depth study. There is no excuse not to be literally shaken up by the verses in the Bible which can fix us firmly in our Christian faith.
Beautiful reading of Hebrews 11, Thank you Micah.
May YAHUAH bless Bro Tim as he continues to seek and teach the Truth, not shrinking back when the ruach connects obedience to the Shabbat, Feasts and dietary commands. By faith we believe the Word and set aside the doctrines of men for this is not our home...we are looking for a better land like Avraham.
Thank you Pastor Tim! It is a blessing to get to hear your explanation on faith.
Brilliant teaching. Brilliant!
What a challenge!! So well-explained! Thank you.
Let Us Reason Together!
God Bless you Sir, Ty God for blessing me with this video. I just wanna tell you Tim you truly are a Jesus' follower. Thank you so much.
Faith is tied to the kingdom, "the here, not not yet fully". A Christian lives by faith knowing Jesus has enacted his Kingdom, and yet the world has not been completely transformed.
Summer is here! I needed this so much today.
While i was listening I remembered the song Do It Again :D
33:53 key point "faith and obedience are part of the same coin."
That song/prayer made my spirit leap!
What is the song name
His voice is patented 😮I know it soon as I hear it.
Such an amazing and refreshing perspective. I love the way you have been empowered to deliver this insight into God's Word Tim, keep it up! :-)
I enjoyed this. Thank you.
Powerful teaching! May God continues to bless you❤
Aaamen Dejon. Dr. Tim's teaching is a blessing indeed!
Exactly ..love it..bear the fruit of the spirit and know Christ
