Hello. Full blooded Athiest turned from being raised Roman Catholic. I am in Christian Worldview course right now and found this video by random search looking for "what was Jesus's point in the teaching (Mathew 5:21-24). The opening statement was the most amazing explanation of this I have ever heard. Your explanation of this is real, relatable and broken down in MODERN COMMON LANGUAGE instead of just "Preaching". This is video is incredible and am subscribing. This is amazing
He’s a great teacher. I’ve been watching and following along in my Bible for years (I have kids so I don’t get much time some days). I’m so happy you found this.
I understand so well what you mean about the difficulty of surrendering. It takes a supernatural use of the will to bend under the glorious wisdom of the Almighty. But if we want to please the Lord with all our heart, to choose the good way, the best way, then we will be able to take the risk of refusing to hold anything against anyone. The other party may be grudging and mistrustful, but pursue and persevere! The rewards are immeasurable!
This is an eye opening message. I have carried around so much anger in my life that it is a lifting of that burden to forgive and turn this over to the Lord.
I am praising God for this moment for you. Our anger becomes our best friend, our everything. It seems so hard to lay it down, but when we do, it is a magnificent gift of freedom.
Oh, my friend, please continue to do the same. We people in the congregation need pastors who are faithful, true, and spiritually mature. Beware, especially, of sexual sin. It is so very insidious and sneaks up on you. Guard your inner thought life very carefully.
Wow, Pastor Paul! This was one of the best messages I have heard from you and i have been through half the Bible on your teachings. I am sharing this with everyone!
Lord, have mercy on me and release me from the anger of who are supposed to be a brother or sister! Those people who are angry at me are not suspeciable for reasonable arguments! Amen to matthew 5:21-26 and this message, binding every spirit of anger under my feet in the name and by the blood of Jesus Christ, hallelujah!
Pastor Paul, I am sitting here in tears. I can’t tell you enough about how much this message spoke to me. I’ve been listening/watching all your messages in the OT and Revelation, but I must say, this is the best and most life changing one yet. Thank you.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Today (July 14), Matthew 5:21-32 was the basis for our Sunday School Lesson of the Day. It was entitled "Jesus Teaches Us to Love One Another." The hymn, "Build Us Up, Lord," written and composed by Mark Glaeser and Donna Hanna, is a good hymn to compliment this Scripture, regardless of denomination.
He teaches us to love one another but not a requirement for salvation, just faith alone in Christ alone. We are saved by grace through faith. We may hate our soul but the spirit does not. We may not love but the spirit does. We access grace by faith. This grace is there even if we do not feel it.
The biggest problem in my life, is Anger. Only with my husband, literally, just him... I have never met someone that can push my buttons the way he does. He can just be completely rude, condescending, neglectful and just downright hypocrite and dare I say, evil at times. I have lashed out, I've gotten angry, I have seriously wanted to get revenge, there have even been times where I get angry with how he's treated me and then he will say things like "I will tell Jesus on you." or "Wow, look at what a good Christian you are." He was an unbeliever, slowly turned semi believer if you count him using Jesus against me, and I know I must lead with grace and patience but it is HARD. Almost instantly after getting angry, or upset...I realize it's just not worth it.. I ask God for forgiveness and I promise to think about my actions and let go of all bitterness and resentment. I ask the Lord to heal me and renew my way of thinking, that I may be more like him... but it is difficult. I have had moments of just downright failure where I tell myself "I need to divorce." or "I need to let this marriage go, It just isn't healthy anymore." or "I love him but if I had the finances in order, I would leave." and you know what? that was a huge foothold the enemy had on my life. Would Jesus leave me? would he divorce me in a heartbeat? no. he wouldn't he is merciful in forgiveness... so I hold on to hope and I continue to pray that my husband has a softened heart. That he may not be so egotistical and the Lord give him understanding and I pray he comes out of the darkness and fully into the light and walk like the Man of God I know he can be. One can pray... Thank you Pastor Paul for reminding me of how wonderful the Lord is.
My King James Bible does not mention the word 'murder,' it say 'kill. Those two words are not interchangeable. So what is all this talk about murder? I suspect people are altering Jesus' words to accommodate killings they want to excuse. However, how does 'turning the other cheek' allow for killing under any circumstance?
This spoke to my heart. Thank you. God wanted me to hear this and I needed to.
Powerful prayer at the end. I surrender.🙏🙌🙏
This one had me in tears. Thank you, Pastor for helping me to continuously surrender to Jesus.
Lord forgive me

Pastor Paul, I truly admire your obedience to the Lord. I am a pastor, and your service to God inspires me to continue doing the same.

I hurt my brother when I was an addict. I tried apologizing twice and asking for forgiveness. Twice he told me to take a hike 😞 idk what else to do
I was doing so well until I got convicted. I shouldn't have listened to the entire thing LOL!
This is so hard
