Ray has aged a couple of years but the message has stayed the same. Thank you Ray for being a faithful servant of Christ.
Actually, it has changed. If you listen to his sermons, "Hell's Best Kept Secret" and "True And False Conversion" (I don't remember exactly which one) you will hear his account of how he used to preach a lop-sided gospel. One that emphasized "accepting Jesus", "really meaning it", "asking Him into your heart", with no mention of the Holy Law of God, nor repentance. Those sermons are definitely worth the watch!

I'd say it has become more complete rather than changed.
Just as God stays the same so did his laws ❤️
No way! I just checked and Ray is 69 that means in this video he was 27!! The age I am now! I hope if I'm still on planet earth in 42 years I'm still open air preaching like Ray so many men started as street preachers but have left it behind to preach indoors, I respect Ray for his perseverance!!
Keep on
42 years, wow. I am exhausted after only 17 years of street preaching. That is amazing. God bless you.
Angela Cummings if you’ve done it for 17 and he 42 I just look at both of you and think how amazing! I’m 25 and am eager to street preach I am but I can see I’ve got a looong and narrow way! Blessings to you.
@@edwardperez4266 the Lord will give you strength to Preach his word and proclaim his truth my Brother.
I don't think street preaching is a good idea. Because people tend to ignore you. So the best way is to approach one person at a time.
Street Preaching is not about good ideas. It is the biblical method. It gets the most persecution too. I never went to a police station for hugging someone for Jesus, giving waters for Jesus or talking one one one for Jesus. It was open air preaching that got me in jail and cop cars. Obedience is what matters. If God calls you to street preach, then you better do it. God asked me to when I was raising a boy alone and running a business. I did not volunteer for that lifestyle. It was a calling and it is all through the bible. Street preachers that are boring and you cant hear them get ignored. It is up to the preacher to become interesting and learn the art of drawing crowds. If you get ignored, you may not be called. It is that simple. God would not call a preacher knowing he or she would be ignored. That doesnt make sense. God wants preachers heard.
Angela Cummings well not entirely true, you may seem ignored at the surface but the seeds have been planted. 1 Corinthians 3:6 I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow.
GLAD THAT EARLY FILM OF RAY WAS PRESERVED ALL THESE YEARS.
It was this man and ministry who has had the greatest impact on my evangelism and open-air preaching. Love you brother Ray!
antenglish1 Mine too! His videos, books, and bible tracts that have helped me immensely!
@@paigecervantes9857 praise God family!
I'm so grateful to God for Ray Comfort.
Ray is storing up those treasures
Thank you Ray! I got radically born again at age 45 when no one had shared the gospel with me. But then I knew I needed to tell others, and through the Transformed conferences and Ray's training and Living Waters' tracts, I do it all the time. Doing this brings me the most joy because JOY is JESUS, others, yourself. True conversions result in testimonies and a desire to talk about Jesus all the time. I do videos too explaining my gospel conversations to help my viewers so see how easy it is. I am a woman, so I don't do open air, but God will give you opportunities to do one-on-one if you ask. God had the slogan first- JUST DO IT. Think about heaven, and if only 1% of those Ray has preached to or any of us are there with us for eternity, isn't that a beautiful thing? We don't want even our worst enemy to go to hell. Thanks Living Waters for all the encouragement. Blessings.
Praise Jesus for blessing our world with such a God fearing, Bible loving, and diligent Evangelist!!! We love you Ray Comfort, and pray that God brings more people to Himself through your ministry!
You are truly doing the Lord's work, Ray. You are such an inspiration to myself and many others.
I genuinely love ray. That man has a heart for god and never moves on the rock that is his faith
This is so beautiful. Praise God for this faithful man. We love you Ray
God bless you Ray! You have been at this a long time my friend. May the Lord bless you!
He may have aged gracefully but his passion for Jesus Christ is still young as ever! God bless you!!
He’s been doing it for 42 years! 😮 praise God
❤May God Almighty cause the seed of the Gospel that you are planting and watering, to Grow and produce eternal fruit in the hearts of the hearers. In Jesus name, AMEN.
"But I hold not my life of any account as dear unto myself, so that I may accomplish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God." (Act 20:24)
GOD BLESS YOU SIR MORE GRACE IN JESUS MATCHLESS NAME AMEN
Still got the same voice😄
Ray Comfort is a major catalyst for why I was saved. I almost want to go as far as to say he was the reason...that's how big of an influence he has been.
Thanks for all you do Ray. A few friends and myself started a street evangelism ministry. We were faithful in it. However until we discovered your videos and website we were just ineffective. We would engage people using Christianese such as "you must be saved". Although that is true a lot would respond by saying "Saved from what"?
We now know we had the cart before the horse. Now by using the Law to demonstrate the need of the Savior we have been able to get to the gospel with most people, even hardened atheists, because we bypass the mind and appeal to the God-given conscience. Our ministry is now flourishing. We have gotten permission from a couple of malls to have an area to witness and give out tracts. We also hit the streets of Philadelphia, PA. You have been an inspiration to us and have helped to equip us. Praise Jesus!
Robert Zanol Robert. That’s wonderful! Thanks for sharing. I will pass your comment on to my team.
Way to stick with it Ray ....Never give up! Never ever give up !!✌🏼
AMEN, GOD Bless you brother Ray.
Acts 20: 24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
How Ray grow and fully mature in faith. Amazing. I thank God the lord Jesus left us true servant and they were not corrupt. Wholeheartedly he fears and love Jesus.. we esteem what Jesus did in the cross. A life is taken in order for us to live.. the messiah Jesus.
Please oh sovereign lord keep Ray with us. The race he is meant to finish is almost done.. we trust in Jesus. Cause many servants now are desiring to do the works of the lord..
Jesus bless you Brethren Ray
✞🔥Jesus Christ, Delivers Us From The Wrath To Come.🔥✞(1 Thessalonians 1:10)
amazing ray how you kempt your faith for all these years and never gave up on teaching Gods word
Much prayer will keep a Christian steadfast. If you spend at least an hour a day (and that's just average,) you will remain firm in Christ. You can split it to half an hour during day and half an hour in the evening/night.
It is the ONLY way a person can grow in Christ AND remain steadfast.
If you discipline (disciple) yourself to do this, soon you become addicted to prayer and you look forward to it.
Even if I don't feel like it, I make myself do it and lo! very soon I am "in the swim" with Jesus and praying with gladness.
I sometimes spend 2 or 3 hours a day in prayer.
Soon you will be led by His Spirit and know what to pray for.
I am saying all this to help you.
I never had the internet in my early years as a Christian and I never had a TV, so I spent a lot of time reading the Bible and praying. Some years later I was called into the Ministry.
But I can see how the internet has replaced "Personal Time" with Jesus.
Just being in a room alone with God - no other distractions.
Also of course, reading and studying the Bible a lot.
When I was a younger person (been a Christian about 43 years now) every one I knew, knew the Scriptures and spent at least an hour a day in prayer, except the sluggards who soon fell away from the Lord.
It is EASY to live for God HARD, and HARD to live for God EASY.
"My soul follows hard after thee." the Psalmist David said to the Lord.
I sincerely hope this helps my friend. Please take it on board. Your life will change.
If you cannot see Our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ, in this Holy Spirit InDwelled Man of God, HE is not in you and you in HIM! God Bless you, Ray Comfort. Many Crowns await you to lay at the feet of Our Holy Savior! Love you, Brother!
Powerful servant of JESUS CHRIST!
Im form india and love rays videos god bless you Ray
You gonna be ruling with lord in your afterlife 😇
God Bless you Ray Comfort! Jesus is King! I am humbled by Grace!
I love it. When I was a little girl in the 70s there was a street preacher who had a little amp and a microphone preaching in front of the courthouse. My daddy who was a pastor and I would stop and listen. My daddy would usually give him a little love offering great flashback. God bless you
Gob bless your service to God you are truly an inspiration to me and I'm sure to many others.
Big hugs to you and your family Ray 🤗
Love you brother Ray
God Bless, Ray.
Thank you, Ray, for your faithfulness to submit to God and be His workmanship (Ephesians 2:10). Your ministry has blessed me tremendously. May the Lord continue to use you and everyone at Living Waters.
R.I.P Ray. God bless you.
God bless you Ray, your family & all those at Living Waters, I really appreciate & thank God for all your videos & your heart for the lost. Your ministry has helped me to witness to a half dozen or so people over this last year & helps give me the confidence needed to look to continue to do more so in 2019.
And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!” - Romans 10:15
God bless him so much
When I read the tracts, I hear Ray’s voice...
God bless you!!
Praise God!
1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Praise the Lord! Thank you for sharing this! God keep on blessing you! And God keep on blessing your Ministry as well as those who are working together with you, helping out with spreading the Gospel and widening out His Kingdom!
Incredible
Grace to you!
Amen very good video.

Grace to you😊

💖
❤️👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Same man... same message. Sounds like Christ is in you! Praise God! God bless you richly, Ray! ps. is that the same Bible??
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
There is NO Way that is Ray. LOOKS SO DIFFERENT! Plus I didn't even know they had camera back in the day 😂
Imvprettyvsure Godcwill say well done thou goodca faithfulvservant.
❤❤❤
Hey Ray. Don't know why am asking that, i guess i am just wondering. Do the people listen less today? Im 20 years old. Just wondering if the time of age really is getting worse than it was before? Is the end time more obvious than it was back then? Blessings
Syndoms There’s a way to get them to listen: I would be honored if you could take the time to listen to “Hell’s Best Kept Secret” (it’s not about Hell) at the bottom of the Home Page on LivingWaters.com. It’s free. I’d love to hear your thoughts. Best wishes. Ray Comfort
Digging the outfit ray!
Rays mansion in heaven will Trump over most others.
@Yahawah is God : do they have mansions?
@Yahawah is God : I think No. 007 still has a point, if aborted babies go to heaven, they not only avoid a lifetime's worth of pain, misery or other bad things, but most importantly, they do not get to make mistakes that could otherwise earn them hell.
Not appreciating heaven as much as someone who did experience pain may make it less enjoyable, but it's still infinitely more enjoyable than an eternity of suffering in hell, wouldn't you think so?
@@AnoAssassin : that would do _me_ a disservice by sending me to hell, but not to the victim, so the point still stands. Avoiding someone even the chance to go to hell would seem like a good thing.
Don't worry, I'm not even remotely considering shooting anyone to avoid him to go to hell, I'm just trying to follow the christian heaven/hell logic.

Sigh, I swear this is the reason that God decided not to talk much about infant death in the Bible, because people would start killing kids for their benefit. Sure, a baby dead is a baby in Heaven. That's not what God planned though. It isn't God's will that babies are killed by human action. And like Jesus said before being captured for execution, "Let not my will be done, but Yours." We must not do what we want, but what God wants.
Biblically you'd doing something detestable and against God's will in abortion, so don't try to loophole it into some morally acceptable act
@@AnoAssassin : there still is talk of infant death in the bible, I mean there probably were a lot of children and pregnant women on Earth at the time the flood happened.
But as you said, it is not god's plan to have babies killed by humans (unless his chosen people wage war against infidels I suppose), but he can do it himself, in this case it cannot be evil.
True..Problem is getting a "wife" to agree to allow you to love her. if you dont have status/Money & Good looks doesnt Hurt either , youll never keep her.
The first shall be rewind time
0:51 "you stored up his wrath" "...you're an enemy of God" this sound like a dictatorship.
his routine back then sounded more loving and christian...
nowadays its all about "i am not judging you, but i think you are a bad person (and my god says i am right)"
Seminex222 That’s a pretty harsh judgment you’re making there.
i would call it an observation!
Of course you would. Human nature.
Mustache like a champ!!
