Thank you Pastor Begg. Ive been praying for GOD to keep you and your family strong throughout these past few days - your ministry is solid and biblical. TFL is a tremendous blessing to me and so many.
Pastor Begg you are a treasure to me. You have made such a difference in my life. You always point me to Jesus. I heard your heart was like Jesus when you answered the Grandmother. I so wish i could give you a huge hug of love and appreciation. Im so glad you took the straight and narrow path and never swerved. Im no one special just another woman at the well. So glad you took the time to speak to me. I have followed you for many years and will continue to do so until Jesus calls us home. Thank you!!!!!
@marthafrazier8724 Beautiful written. Brought tears. God bless you.. "I'm no one special just another woman at the well." and a beautiful redeemed child of the King. much love

Fourth, repent, and learn what the truth, the gospel, and the Christianity of the Bible actually is.
You are back!! I can see by your face you are back. I pray for you every day. Thank you Pastor Begg. You are loved and appreciated not as a man, but as a man of God.
Thank you Alister… your pastoring has been a comfort to me not just personally but shared with members of my family who struggled tremendously, so much so many wouldn’t recognize them as Christians at all but yet, even in their troubled lives we would always share,(text and or talk in person when we’d have the rare occasions we’d see one another), your message shared from the pulpit. May God open another window for you to be heard as far as radio… in the meantime PLEASE KNOW Alister Beggs has a great podcast.
Alistair Begg , you never cease to amaze me when you teach , you hit the nail on the head every time. Thank you for pointing us to Jesus and magnifying Him.
Praise be to God and Lord Jesus Christ for His servant Alistair Begg and his sound Biblical exposition through whom a sinner like me came to repentance and despising the drug fueled, sexually immoral lifestyle I once lived.
Surprised to see the fire still blazing. Boomer that I am a song came to mind ….Silence is golden!!!! No fuel… no fire. I no longer view nor comment on those sights. Truth For Life has been a blessing and I continue to recommend to others. I thank God for Parkside and their Pastor Alister Begg. God bless the many ministries and outreaches that you are involved in.
Thank you pastor Begg, I’ve been listening to you since I was first saved 21 years ago. Many of your messages have given me courage and directions in my younger years, especially your Uncle Ali talks to young people about relationships.
Thank you Alistar.you are NOT the "controversy" .you as always are on solid biblical ground.your brilliant response is meek and confident. I am inspired by your grace to your adversaries.
Praise God for this ministry . I pray for you pastor Alistair , And thank God. for you commitment to him and your loyalty and boldness to the Word of God .🙏 Praying for you and your church.
TY Pastor Begg, cheers all & God bless ! And the Lord commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day. Deuteronomy 6:24 - KJV ❤ Praise & Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ !
How wonderful to see the Lord continuing to bless and annoint your ministry despite the recent unworthy attack on you recently, by men who ought to know better. Much prayer for you here in UK. John Doonan.
My dear friends who are listening along with me and have made some comments on what has happened over the last few days .It would be more gracious of those who are jumping up and down if they would read once again the words of our Lord himself he who is without sin let him throw the first stone ,should we not be more willing to love our children and to show them the way the true way that leads us to know Jesus and his Father ,and rather than condemn them outright let us love them and pray for them that they may come to realise that they are sinful and need the saving grace of God himself to save them and restore them to Himself and also to us ,May God bless you all who take the time to read and pray about these things…
Oh! Dear Alistair, may the Lord uphold you in the midst of the storm. Though the devil is tempting to shift you like wheat, may the strong and bare arm of the Almighty go before you and your dear family. This pitiful world needs you dear soul. Your ministry on behalf of the Lord of the Word and the Word of the Lord has been a steadfast beacon! May your anchor hold, may your “rope” be fastened to the eternal weight of glory in this albeit rough sea, which is no more than a temporary light affliction. Press on Alistair! Onward and upward we go in Christ. The Lord has an army of children that are “holding your arms up” in prayer as strength and courage are needed. You are loved my friend. Deeply and dearly appreciated. May you fight the good fight by His might, even as from the beginning until now… again I say, PRESS ON! And thank you for letting the Lord use you to grow my heart toward His blessed kingdom.❤️🫠
This phony christian has nothing to do with the God, nor the Christianity of the Bible. You are completely steeped in deception. It is you and all those deceived by this ungodly man who are pitiful. Repent, and learn what the truth and Christianity of the Bible actually is.
All that the so called"Pharisees" were saying is that IF a Christian goes to a gay wedding you are affirming, blessing their union and we all know it against God's plan for marriage. That's it.
Im sorry to bring this up but I havent had a chance to so far. Grace to the undeserving is still hated by the modern day Pharisees. The rage and condemnation against this man are mind blowing. Even if he got it wrong (i dont believe he did) the zeal to stone him is horrifying. For what its worth, i stand by his stand- that the Lord continually showed grace to those the religious zealots did not. May the Spirit create that heart in all his children.
AMEN... I love you and your preaching .. after following Jesus over 55 yrs ..I have never felt so close to Jesus and filled with the Holy spirit(I'm far from where I want to be). All because of the Lord speaking through you.. no pastor I've heard ..continues to emphasize the importance of Jesus in every sermon... thank you .. I listen to you daily and often for hours a day!.. God Bless you and please never stop sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with us.. 🤎🤍🤎🤍💙.. love all the song references!.. I'm from that time too!..😊
I take from this message that when looking for truth, we start by looking to see if God is at the centre. This brings us to one Godly marriage, one identity, one hope, one reality. It is us and our sin driven perspectives that has lead us our the current pick and mixed anxiety driven confused state. There is a beautiful logic , unity, inclusiveness, identity, and moral framework that holds everything in perfect balance, and it's found in the designer God. I think we need to give people a vision and alternative that they are actually desperately seeking , but we have to be good communicators, and we have to find them where they are not where we want them to be.
Why is it that when I discuss this issue the ones who think Begg is wrong always use extreme examples to support their position.? Begg is not telling her to support her in this "Gayness". He is telling her to love her granddaughter. I saw a TV broadcast once where Jeffrey Dahmer's mother was asked on some TV talk show, "It has been reported that you, dear woman, have been visiting Jeffrey in prison every day since he was imprisoned. And the American people cannot understand why. This is THE most hated man in our history. Can you explain why you do it.?" She said, "It is simple. I Love My Son." That is the kind of love Jesus loves us with. It is Unconditional. That is how we are supposed to love others. Even those who are hanging us on a cross. Some so-called Christians love to use the scripture to justify hating others. The same kind of self-righteous people used their Law, which God intended for mercy, to Hang God in the flesh. WHAT HYPOCRACY.!!! Please, brother, stop... 💛❤💙 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were Yet Sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
It's funny how people keep commenting on the wrong video, when the post or video posted is not about that topic, yet people keep bringing it out. Say it once is enough, saying it so many times is like a noisy wife, like raindrop keep raining down (see Proverbs 19:13). Saying it so many times makes it noisy, rather than helpful. I think he defended himself is because of the noises from the Internet. It has been really noisy for the last 12 days, and man, if you put yourself in Pastor Begg shoes, I think you will defend yourself as well. Just stop the noises, please. Nagging is not a Christian way.
@@belovedbytheKingyet are we to badger them for saying something we disagree with? Are we to have them repent for not saying what we wish them to say or are we to have them repent for the sin of their lives?
@@belovedbytheKing Call it once is enough, but what I'm currently seeing here, is a lot of the same guys either on Facebook or other social media, they keep commenting the same thing on every new post by Truth for Life. That's nagging, that's not calling people to repentance. As you said, call when necessary. But what I am seeing is just noises rather than that.
He is an amazing preacher! It’s just the devil and modern day Pharisees trying to destroy his career as a pastor! I pray The Lord cover and protect him.
I would say to all who have forgotten what the LORD says about (taking the PLANK out of your own eyes). Be YE CAREFUL. MAY THE LORD Continue to BLESS YOUR LIFE🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌈
”And the Pharisees and their scribes grumbled at his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” And Jesus answered them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”“ Luke 5:30-32
Just 3 days ago an acquaintance stopped by as I was working and learned he is not a believer and a flat earther. I was totally surprised. Most sadly was that he said nothing I could say would change his beliefs so I ended our conversation with ill pray the Lord Jesus will open your heart and mind to a new Way 🙏🙏🙏🔥✝️❤️
There is no Christian that is not a flat earther. It is impossible for anyone to be a Christian and not be a flat earther. If you were not completely Biblically illiterate like the false preacher in this video, you would know this. Repent!
@@johnjaso385 ,...I have the truth and out of love have shared the truth for all of your edifications. The problem is, if anyone is in the church, they are not of the truth, want no truth, and understand no truth.
There is another song....'ISN'T IT A PITY'? Isn't it a shame? How we break each other's hearts and cause each other pain, How we take each other's love without thinking anymore, Forgetting to give back Isn't it a pity?
How did Jesus tell us to judge? Are we to be quick to judge and past judgment? Has anyone in their faith grown to such a level that Jesus’ everlasting mercy and grace aren't needed anymore, and you have remained sinless? That any of you coming in your judgment, know for sure all who are the Sheep of the Lord in our day and age? Tell me, how are we to spread the Good News to all nations if we are cutting “all those sinners” out of our lives for our own “purity”? That we should only associate with the anointed around us and leave those heathens to their lot. God would understand why we left those people to their sin because, after all, wouldn't He have done the same? It's not like the religious leaders of His time criticized Him for, oh, I don't know hanging out with the sick or the sinners they refused to even be around.
Is the programs you choose to listen to on UA-cam forced upon you? If not, then why go out of your way to spend your stewardship of time listening to someone you disagree with. Why spend time letting corrupt communications come from your comments? Edifying and building up is what we are to do. God has always been in control continues to be in control and is more than capable of bringing any if us to repentance. I am thankful that many of you who profess Christ will not be (My) judge when I stand before the Lord. While I do not always agree with Alistar I am thankful that he demonstrates a love for the Father.
So please answer me this... all of you who are giving your positive support to Pastor Alistair Begg, do you all agree that it's ok to attend a transgender/homosexual/same sex marriage and bring a gift? Do you all believe that would be something that would be pleasing in the eyes of God and Christ?
*Now concerning this recent controversy... Begg was Absolutely Right.! You don't win people by rejecting them. You win them over by reaching them where they are.! Jesus went to Matthew's house to eat, (a tax collector.!!!) and everyone one was appalled, yet Jesus was right. (This Matthew wrote one of the 4 gospels) Jesus healed the servant of the Centurian. Which everyone judged to be a heathen. Yet Jesus said, of him, "I have not seen such faith in all of Israel.!" (Jesus was actually astounded) I used to be Greatly Homophobic in my passed. I thought these people were doomed to hell. I was wrong. God forced me into several relationships with "gay people". And to my surprise I found many of them to be just as faithful as I was. We love to take scripture to use as a weapon of judgment. That is exactly what the Pharisees did with the Law. Sin is Sin. We all fall short. But Paul said, "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: (condemeth) for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things." (Romans 2:1)
Jesus didn't join the prostitutes in the brothels though, nor did he sit in the tax collecting booths. He met them where they was at, but not literally/ physically. He ate with sinners, associated with them but didn't join them in their sin. If Jesus was alive today in the flesh He would be sure to eat, drink and commune with those that live party lifestyles and those that are into drinking and doing drugs, but im pretty sure He would not be found in nightclubs or at raves.
@@tomforemanx1079 The truth is you don't know what Jesus would do if He were walking around in this world today. Anymore than His disciples knew what He would do next, in their day. Remember when Jesus said, "If you don't eat my flesh and drink my blood, you have no part with me." And all of His followers left Him. Then He turned to the 12 and asked, "Will you leave me also.?" The 12 were stunned. They did not know how to answer Him. Only Peter said, "Where can we go.? You have the Truth." And when Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman. And she was stunned because He wasn't supposed to do that.? Jesus ate with His disciples with unwashed hands, and, He befriended Romans, and He worked on the Sabath... Jesus trusted Judus with the money purse, knowing He was a betrayer. That doesn't seem right.!!! Jesus gave His Life for Sinners.!! While we were yet sinning.! Begg is right to tell her to do what Jesus would do if He were walking with her today. Because He is.!! Love Your Grandson.!!! And you, Tom, need to leave it between Begg and God. 💛❤💙
Love u Pastor Begg Sorry for all the backlash you’re getting from others, you are a great expository God-fearing preacher who I will not stop listening to NO matter what Justin Peters recommends that people should stop listening to you 🤦🏻♀️ I love Justin Peters but he is a little too prideful/arrogant sometimes
Pastor Begg....your comment you are now trying to explain And justify, I believe you should stand up for, for it speaks from the heart, and that is where Jesus is said to be, right? You never said, that you believe being gay or trans, and those marrying is ok. You simply said, that if those you love, are gay or trans and want to marry, you can still love them, but not love the sin, without condoning their sin. I agree. Jesus did not turn away the sinners, nor judge them , during His time on earth.....so why would we? Because we love someone who is still "living in the darkness", it doesnt mean we stop loving them. And even though we still love them, doesnt mean we love that sin. We still pray for them, to "see with their eyes, and hear with their ears" , because not everybody does. Jesus did not judge, so what gives the Christian the right to? Because the Christian changed themselves, does not give them the right to put themselves on a great pedestal above all others as greater than them. I started listening to you, back in 2010, on the radio with Truth For Life. You were the first Pastor, I could "hear" what you were saying. And I listened to your program. I was really glad, when I found you on Facebook, with the live Sunday Parkside Church sermons. You speak, like Inwould think, Jesus taught so long ago in His time on earth here. Never let other people second guess yourself, justbto please them. You do not judge, just as Jesus did not judge, bought taught instead. May God always remain with you.
Please seek the Lord and repent of all the things you have recently said. Our church is saddened by your misguided advice and attitude to those who are correcting you rightly. God bless you.
and our prayers are that YOU will see the truth. This man was 1000000% correct that that american evangicals have become so fundamentalist and have become like the pharisees that shows little to no compassion and bucket loads of condemnation why is it when you see the evangical movement today you see less and less of Christ. and more politics and serpant logic Paul talks multiple times to movements and commment like yours. Go and read them to see how you must behave....
He repents DAILY. If you actually bother to listen to his sermons instead of regurgitating lies but for the wedding thing he will not repent. man does not repent to man
Sadly, while I would typically listen to Truth for Life, I do not feel able at this time. Begg needs to spend significant time in reading the Word, meeting with God, and consulting with those he was once on a par with theologically.
how often do you read the Word ??? weird to see Christians praise with one breath, then curse in the same breath people and in this case a pastor. This is a specific verse in the Bible. and if are put off by one piece of advice to a person hou have never even met, maybe you need to read what the Word says about offence. IT IS TAKEN. not given
It is not mean to tell your daughter, as I have a bisexual daughter you cannot condone their lifestyle, nor be a part of it in any form that’s not mean that’s love I’m telling her her soul is at risk, and we have a great relationship. and why would you give advice to a Christian to be involved in such things, Jesus said the world will hate you because of me ! if my daughter hated me because my belief in the teachings of Jesus, that’s not my problem that would be her problem but I don’t have issues because my daughter understands how I feel and I understand how she feels we as Christians are not to be a part of blasphemy or what God himself called An abomination that was terrible advice and I will pray for your soul because if you do not repent, you do not read and understand that the world will hate you because of your belief in Jesus that also includes your family ! and we are not to be warm and fuzzy COLD in our faith people we are to tell them only the truth as stated so By Jesus ! Take MY word to the world He didn’t say bring your view to the world ! I pay for Alister Begg 🙏🏻
You have misunderstood and have not listened to his sermon from Sunday night. He did address the whole ado, and if you will listen with a just and loving heart, you will come to a better understanding.
Even the very elect could be deceived. Be careful of judgments friend. Whether you agree or disagree, are you sure you've removed the beam in your own eye before helping your brother with the speck in his? I too trouble over this subject but I do know several months ago Alistair was asked never to come back and speak at a university he spoke at for 12 years for saying a marriage is between a man and a woman. We have to be careful. Satan is looking to divide us at every turn and time is shorter now than it has ever been. God bless.
Have you actually listened to what Alistair said before you went on this rant? Tell me when Jesus said “they will hate you because of me” what context did He say that in? Jesus said He is sending us out as sheep among wolves, and in the Great Commission the Lord told us to make disciples of all nations. Not of the places we want to make them but the whole world. Jesus went to those who were sick and gave them the good news and commanded us to do the same! God came down into this world to intercede on our behalf. Should He have just stayed in heaven since all were dead in their sin and at odds with the Law? Knowing that we would kill Him, knowing there would be rejection, and they would hate Him but that still did not stop Him from going to the world. Who are you or anyone else to think that you know better than God who is or isn't His sheep? How are we to love our enemies if we are too busy cutting them out of our lives? How are they to continue to see the love of God in our lives if we have stricken them from our sight? Have any of us arrived in our faith that we don't need the compassion, mercy, and grace of our Lord over our sins?
@@hayesjulie why do you all assume we’ve not heard the message? It’s because we listened to it, can we stand our ground! Alastair is a pastor, who is responsible for giving solid biblical advice.
While I disagree with the statement and it's now being dealt with in his church, I do seriously doubt he sees that as the gospel. We don't need to slander the guy that isn't good either.
@@Gondor149 I'm literally quoting his own words. How is that slander? And he's had a week or so to modify or walk them back, and has publicly said nope. What a weird hill to die on. Trans weddings.
HE is not dying the AMerican fundies are slaughtering him. Big difference. Its quite heart breaking to see "the church" - not my church - eviscerating a man who has had a faithful long pastorate. @@TheChris403
@@TheChris403Has nothing to do with the gospel, or primary areas of theology. This was stated as his advice and an opinion. He is allowed to have his opinion, fine, I personally do not agree with his advice, but that doesn't make him a heretic, not even close. Even though I disagree with attending a trans wedding personally - based on scripture, it's not a real wedding at all. God gets to define what a wedding is, and its between a man and a women, and that's it. I still don't understand attending or giving a gift in this context, I guess that's not for me. He makes great points about compassion and loving publicans and sinners like Jesus does. God bless you brother.
How much kindness would it bring when a homosexual couple adopt a child and they raise that child in a blasphemous godless Home ? Is that what the Bible tells you ?
Is that what Alistair said in this message, or the small audio exert that many have blown out of proportion? Tell me, is it up to you or anyone else to say who is and isn't the Lord’s, or is it up to God who and when He calls His sheep to Him? Are you sure that you have removed the beam in your own eye so you can help your brother with the speck in his?
@@kevinwalsh7287 there is nothing unbiblical about not telling your granddaughter you are living in what God said is an abomination and I cannot be involved in this. I love you with all my heart, but I cannot be a part of this that is what is biblical ! thou shall live not by bread alone, but every word of my father, you cannot preach about Jesus, and not love and follow the commands of his father, I agree Alastair has a great great ministry He messed up on this one and it’s not a small mess up. It is a big mess up !
Seems like a nice enough person, but his defense of the gay wedding is full of error. He was not at all humble and the fact he called concerned believers a bunch of Pharisees is sad. I truly pray he doesn’t turn into a heretical pastor who says all love is love.
GEES. HE DID NIT DEFEND A GUY WEDDING. Shows you people and how freak about so much about "gay". And not so much about compassion. They are pharisees because you can see it in their fruit. These false christians are talked about in the Bible. You are so wrong and in your comment I can definitely deduce that you did not even listen to his sermon. so you got swept up in lies and condemation. nice traits for a christian, hey !!!!! or rather a "pharisee"
Mr. Begg needs to reevaluate his recent statements, consider what other sound teachers and Christian leaders are saying, and consider changing his mind on the matter
Try not to fall for those UA-camrs using Pr. Begg name as a bait to get clicks or likes as well or else you will sure be a victim for what is not really matter.
You have misunderstood and have not listened to his sermon from Sunday night. He did address the whole ado, and if you will listen with a just and loving heart, you will come to a better understanding
Because of a controversial issue someone is not a servant of the Lord? You should find out about any Bible teacher deep enough, and I guarantee you, no one is a servant of the Lord. Not even you. For example, I know people tho think metal music in itself is sinful. Good luck finding basis for that in the Bible.
@JohnJohn-nh2rl your comment isn’t helpful, it isn’t for anyone’s benefit. That is not love. If you disagree with Alistair, lift him up to God in prayer. He is our brother in Christ
Thank you Pastor Begg. Ive been praying for GOD to keep you and your family strong throughout these past few days - your ministry is solid and biblical. TFL is a tremendous blessing to me and so many.

Your ministry on behalf of the Lord of the Word and the Word of the Lord has been a steadfast beacon! May your anchor hold, may your “rope” be fastened to the eternal weight of glory in this albeit rough sea, which is no more than a temporary light affliction. Press on Alistair! Onward and upward we go in Christ. The Lord has an army of children that are “holding your arms up” in prayer as strength and courage are needed. You are loved my friend. Deeply and dearly appreciated. May you fight the good fight by His might, even as from the beginning until now… again I say, PRESS ON! And thank you for letting the Lord use you to grow my heart toward His blessed kingdom.❤️🫠
This phony christian has nothing to do with the God, nor the Christianity of the Bible. You are completely steeped in deception. It is you and all those deceived by this ungodly man who are pitiful.
Repent, and learn what the truth and Christianity of the Bible actually is.
This was solid. Glad to see him ignoring the Pharisees and being about God's business.
All that the so called"Pharisees" were saying is that IF a Christian goes to a gay wedding you are affirming, blessing their union and we all know it against God's plan for marriage. That's it.
@@rubie5501
It's really terrible to call Christians Pharisees because they won't compromise like this.
What a Powerful Message.! From a Courageous Man.
Im sorry to bring this up but I havent had a chance to so far. Grace to the undeserving is still hated by the modern day Pharisees. The rage and condemnation against this man are mind blowing. Even if he got it wrong (i dont believe he did) the zeal to stone him is horrifying. For what its worth, i stand by his stand- that the Lord continually showed grace to those the religious zealots did not. May the Spirit create that heart in all his children.
Yes the zeal is horrifying. Weeping over it.
AMEN... I love you and your preaching .. after following Jesus over 55 yrs ..I have never felt so close to Jesus and filled with the Holy spirit(I'm far from where I want to be). All because of the Lord speaking through you.. no pastor I've heard ..continues to emphasize the importance of Jesus in every sermon... thank you .. I listen to you daily and often for hours a day!.. God Bless you and please never stop sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with us.. 🤎🤍🤎🤍💙.. love all the song references!.. I'm from that time too!..😊
I take from this message that when looking for truth, we start by looking to see if God is at the centre. This brings us to one Godly marriage, one identity, one hope, one reality. It is us and our sin driven perspectives that has lead us our the current pick and mixed anxiety driven confused state. There is a beautiful logic , unity, inclusiveness, identity, and moral framework that holds everything in perfect balance, and it's found in the designer God. I think we need to give people a vision and alternative that they are actually desperately seeking , but we have to be good communicators, and we have to find them where they are not where we want them to be.
Love this guy!
Why is it that when I discuss this issue the ones who think Begg is wrong always use extreme examples to support their position.?
Begg is not telling her to support her in this "Gayness". He is telling her to love her granddaughter.
I saw a TV broadcast once where Jeffrey Dahmer's mother was asked on some TV talk show, "It has been reported that you, dear woman, have been visiting Jeffrey in prison every day since he was imprisoned.
And the American people cannot understand why. This is THE most hated man in our history. Can you explain why you do it.?"
She said, "It is simple. I Love My Son."
That is the kind of love Jesus loves us with.
It is Unconditional.
That is how we are supposed to love others. Even those who are hanging us on a cross.
Some so-called Christians love to use the scripture to justify hating others.
The same kind of self-righteous people used their Law, which God intended for mercy, to Hang God in the flesh.
WHAT HYPOCRACY.!!!
Please, brother, stop... 💛❤💙
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were Yet Sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
I thank GOD for you
Thank you for an awesome sermon.
It's funny how people keep commenting on the wrong video, when the post or video posted is not about that topic, yet people keep bringing it out. Say it once is enough, saying it so many times is like a noisy wife, like raindrop keep raining down (see Proverbs 19:13). Saying it so many times makes it noisy, rather than helpful. I think he defended himself is because of the noises from the Internet. It has been really noisy for the last 12 days, and man, if you put yourself in Pastor Begg shoes, I think you will defend yourself as well. Just stop the noises, please. Nagging is not a Christian way.
You cannot call someone to repentance too many times.
@@belovedbytheKingyet are we to badger them for saying something we disagree with? Are we to have them repent for not saying what we wish them to say or are we to have them repent for the sin of their lives?
@@enatyras we are to call them to repentance when necessary
@@belovedbytheKing Call it once is enough, but what I'm currently seeing here, is a lot of the same guys either on Facebook or other social media, they keep commenting the same thing on every new post by Truth for Life. That's nagging, that's not calling people to repentance. As you said, call when necessary. But what I am seeing is just noises rather than that.
He is an amazing preacher! It’s just the devil and modern day Pharisees trying to destroy his career as a pastor! I pray The Lord cover and protect him.
He's 72? He looks great. 😮 he could pass for 50.
I would say to all who have forgotten what the LORD says about (taking the PLANK out of your own eyes). Be YE CAREFUL. MAY THE LORD Continue to BLESS YOUR LIFE🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌈
”And the Pharisees and their scribes grumbled at his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” And Jesus answered them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”“
Luke 5:30-32
Just 3 days ago an acquaintance stopped by as I was working and learned he is not a believer and a flat earther. I was totally surprised. Most sadly was that he said nothing I could say would change his beliefs so I ended our conversation with ill pray the Lord Jesus will open your heart and mind to a new Way 🙏🙏🙏🔥✝️❤️
There is no Christian that is not a flat earther. It is impossible for anyone to be a Christian and not be a flat earther.
If you were not completely Biblically illiterate like the false preacher in this video, you would know this. Repent!
Much love to you and your family.

There is another song....'ISN'T IT A PITY'? Isn't it a shame? How we break each other's hearts and cause each other pain, How we take each other's love without thinking anymore, Forgetting to give back Isn't it a pity?
Amen and AMEN......
amen,amen amen.
If you love God, you will obey Him - in truth.
How did Jesus tell us to judge? Are we to be quick to judge and past judgment? Has anyone in their faith grown to such a level that Jesus’ everlasting mercy and grace aren't needed anymore, and you have remained sinless? That any of you coming in your judgment, know for sure all who are the Sheep of the Lord in our day and age?
Tell me, how are we to spread the Good News to all nations if we are cutting “all those sinners” out of our lives for our own “purity”? That we should only associate with the anointed around us and leave those heathens to their lot. God would understand why we left those people to their sin because, after all, wouldn't He have done the same?
It's not like the religious leaders of His time criticized Him for, oh, I don't know hanging out with the sick or the sinners they refused to even be around.
Amen!❣
amen
Amen.
Is the programs you choose to listen to on UA-cam forced upon you?
If not, then why go out of your way to spend your stewardship of time listening to someone you disagree with.
Why spend time letting corrupt communications come from your comments? Edifying and building up is what we are to do. God has always been in control continues to be in control and is more than capable of bringing any if us to repentance. I am thankful that many of you who profess Christ will not be (My) judge when I stand before the Lord. While I do not always agree with Alistar I am thankful that he demonstrates a love for the Father.
So many heartfelt and thankful AMENS to your wise words.
🙏 Amen 🙏
So please answer me this... all of you who are giving your positive support to Pastor Alistair Begg, do you all agree that it's ok to attend a transgender/homosexual/same sex marriage and bring a gift? Do you all believe that would be something that would be pleasing in the eyes of God and Christ?
*Now concerning this recent controversy...
Begg was Absolutely Right.! You don't win people by rejecting them.
You win them over by reaching them where they are.!
Jesus went to Matthew's house to eat, (a tax collector.!!!) and everyone one was appalled, yet Jesus was right.
(This Matthew wrote one of the 4 gospels)
Jesus healed the servant of the Centurian. Which everyone judged to be a heathen.
Yet Jesus said, of him, "I have not seen such faith in all of Israel.!"
(Jesus was actually astounded)
I used to be Greatly Homophobic in my passed. I thought these people were doomed to hell.
I was wrong. God forced me into several relationships with "gay people".
And to my surprise I found many of them to be just as faithful as I was.
We love to take scripture to use as a weapon of judgment.
That is exactly what the Pharisees did with the Law.
Sin is Sin. We all fall short.
But Paul said, "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: (condemeth) for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things." (Romans 2:1)
Jesus didn't join the prostitutes in the brothels though, nor did he sit in the tax collecting booths. He met them where they was at, but not literally/ physically. He ate with sinners, associated with them but didn't join them in their sin. If Jesus was alive today in the flesh He would be sure to eat, drink and commune with those that live party lifestyles and those that are into drinking and doing drugs, but im pretty sure He would not be found in nightclubs or at raves.
@@tomforemanx1079 The truth is you don't know what Jesus would do if He were walking around in this world today.
Anymore than His disciples knew what He would do next, in their day.
Remember when Jesus said, "If you don't eat my flesh and drink my blood, you have no part with me." And all of His followers left Him. Then He turned to the 12 and asked, "Will you leave me also.?" The 12 were stunned. They did not know how to answer Him. Only Peter said, "Where can we go.? You have the Truth."
And when Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman. And she was stunned because He wasn't supposed to do that.?
Jesus ate with His disciples with unwashed hands, and, He befriended Romans, and He worked on the Sabath...
Jesus trusted Judus with the money purse, knowing He was a betrayer. That doesn't seem right.!!!
Jesus gave His Life for Sinners.!! While we were yet sinning.!
Begg is right to tell her to do what Jesus would do if He were walking with her today. Because He is.!!
Love Your Grandson.!!!
And you, Tom, need to leave it between Begg and God. 💛❤💙
When was this recorded?
14 July 2023, though the date isn't important
Love u Pastor Begg
Sorry for all the backlash you’re getting from others, you are a great expository God-fearing preacher who I will not stop listening to NO matter what Justin Peters recommends that people should stop listening to you 🤦🏻♀️
I love Justin Peters but he is a little too prideful/arrogant sometimes
What's your testimony?
Pastor Begg....your comment you are now trying to explain And justify, I believe you should stand up for, for it speaks from the heart, and that is where Jesus is said to be, right? You never said, that you believe being gay or trans, and those marrying is ok. You simply said, that if those you love, are gay or trans and want to marry, you can still love them, but not love the sin, without condoning their sin. I agree. Jesus did not turn away the sinners, nor judge them , during His time on earth.....so why would we? Because we love someone who is still "living in the darkness", it doesnt mean we stop loving them. And even though we still love them, doesnt mean we love that sin. We still pray for them, to "see with their eyes, and hear with their ears" , because not everybody does. Jesus did not judge, so what gives the Christian the right to? Because the Christian changed themselves, does not give them the right to put themselves on a great pedestal above all others as greater than them. I started listening to you, back in 2010, on the radio with Truth For Life. You were the first Pastor, I could "hear" what you were saying. And I listened to your program. I was really glad, when I found you on Facebook, with the live Sunday Parkside Church sermons. You speak, like Inwould think, Jesus taught so long ago in His time on earth here. Never let other people second guess yourself, justbto please them. You do not judge, just as Jesus did not judge, bought taught instead. May God always remain with you.
We need Christ, not Muslim money.
Please seek the Lord and repent of all the things you have recently said. Our church is saddened by your misguided advice and attitude to those who are correcting you rightly. God bless you.
This guy is not a Christian, and will never seek the Lord or the Lords Christianity.
and our prayers are that YOU will see the truth. This man was 1000000% correct that that american evangicals have become so fundamentalist and have become like the pharisees that shows little to no compassion and bucket loads of condemnation
why is it when you see the evangical movement today you see less and less of Christ. and more politics and serpant logic
Paul talks multiple times to movements and commment like yours. Go and read them to see how you must behave....
Why has the man not repented yet?
Because he doesn't need to
He repents DAILY. If you actually bother to listen to his sermons instead of regurgitating lies
but for the wedding thing he will not repent. man does not repent to man
@@pieterduplessis6906 Has he ever said he was wrong to say what he did?
He needs to repent.
He needs to keep doing what he's been doing for decades.
Sadly, while I would typically listen to Truth for Life, I do not feel able at this time. Begg needs to spend significant time in reading the Word, meeting with God, and consulting with those he was once on a par with theologically.
He's not going to change his position. I bet he reads the Word more than you.
how often do you read the Word ???
weird to see Christians praise with one breath, then curse in the same breath people and in this case a pastor. This is a specific verse in the Bible.
and if are put off by one piece of advice to a person hou have never even met, maybe you need to read what the Word says about offence. IT IS TAKEN. not given
It is not mean to tell your daughter, as I have a bisexual daughter you cannot condone their lifestyle, nor be a part of it in any form that’s not mean that’s love
I’m telling her her soul is at risk, and we have a great relationship. and why would you give advice to a Christian to be involved in such things, Jesus said the world will hate you because of me !
if my daughter hated me because my belief in the teachings of Jesus, that’s not my problem that would be her problem but I don’t have issues because my daughter understands how I feel and I understand how she feels we as Christians are not to be a part of blasphemy or what God himself called An abomination that was terrible advice and I will pray for your soul because if you do not repent, you do not read and understand that the world will hate you because of your belief in Jesus that also includes your family ! and we are not to be warm and fuzzy COLD in our faith people we are to tell them only the truth as stated so By Jesus ! Take MY word to the world He didn’t say bring your view to the world ! I pay for Alister Begg 🙏🏻
You have misunderstood and have not listened to his sermon from Sunday night. He did address the whole ado, and if you will listen with a just and loving heart, you will come to a better understanding.

Even the very elect could be deceived. Be careful of judgments friend. Whether you agree or disagree, are you sure you've removed the beam in your own eye before helping your brother with the speck in his? I too trouble over this subject but I do know several months ago Alistair was asked never to come back and speak at a university he spoke at for 12 years for saying a marriage is between a man and a woman. We have to be careful. Satan is looking to divide us at every turn and time is shorter now than it has ever been. God bless.
Have you actually listened to what Alistair said before you went on this rant? Tell me when Jesus said “they will hate you because of me” what context did He say that in? Jesus said He is sending us out as sheep among wolves, and in the Great Commission the Lord told us to make disciples of all nations. Not of the places we want to make them but the whole world. Jesus went to those who were sick and gave them the good news and commanded us to do the same! God came down into this world to intercede on our behalf. Should He have just stayed in heaven since all were dead in their sin and at odds with the Law? Knowing that we would kill Him, knowing there would be rejection, and they would hate Him but that still did not stop Him from going to the world. Who are you or anyone else to think that you know better than God who is or isn't His sheep? How are we to love our enemies if we are too busy cutting them out of our lives? How are they to continue to see the love of God in our lives if we have stricken them from our sight? Have any of us arrived in our faith that we don't need the compassion, mercy, and grace of our Lord over our sins?
@@hayesjulie why do you all assume we’ve not heard the message? It’s because we listened to it, can we stand our ground! Alastair is a pastor, who is responsible for giving solid biblical advice.
Four words: Go to trans weddings.
Four more words: And bring a gift.
Thus is the Gospel according to Alistair Begg.
While I disagree with the statement and it's now being dealt with in his church, I do seriously doubt he sees that as the gospel. We don't need to slander the guy that isn't good either.
@@Gondor149 I'm literally quoting his own words. How is that slander? And he's had a week or so to modify or walk them back, and has publicly said nope.
What a weird hill to die on. Trans weddings.
HE is not dying the AMerican fundies are slaughtering him. Big difference. Its quite heart breaking to see "the church" - not my church - eviscerating a man who has had a faithful long pastorate. @@TheChris403
@@TheChris403Has nothing to do with the gospel, or primary areas of theology. This was stated as his advice and an opinion. He is allowed to have his opinion, fine, I personally do not agree with his advice, but that doesn't make him a heretic, not even close. Even though I disagree with attending a trans wedding personally - based on scripture, it's not a real wedding at all. God gets to define what a wedding is, and its between a man and a women, and that's it. I still don't understand attending or giving a gift in this context, I guess that's not for me. He makes great points about compassion and loving publicans and sinners like Jesus does. God bless you brother.
It's not the Gospal according to Begg. Your attempted slander says more about your problems rather than his.
I cannot listen any more. SORRY.
Your loss
How much kindness would it bring when a homosexual couple adopt a child and they raise that child in a blasphemous godless Home ? Is that what the Bible tells you ?

Are you sure that you have removed the beam in your own eye so you can help your brother with the speck in his?
@@Shadowslayer347exactly. Well said friend. God bless
Alistair has had a fruitful ministry for 50 years. Judge the fruit. His position on homosexuality is biblical and has remained unchanged.
@@kevinwalsh7287 there is nothing unbiblical about not telling your granddaughter you are living in what God said is an abomination and I cannot be involved in this.

It is a big mess up !
Seems like a nice enough person, but his defense of the gay wedding is full of error. He was not at all humble and the fact he called concerned believers a bunch of Pharisees is sad. I truly pray he doesn’t turn into a heretical pastor who says all love is love.
He didn't defend any gay wedding.
GEES. HE DID NIT DEFEND A GUY WEDDING. Shows you people and how freak about so much about "gay". And not so much about compassion. They are pharisees because you can see it in their fruit. These false christians are talked about in the Bible. You are so wrong and in your comment I can definitely deduce that you did not even listen to his sermon. so you got swept up in lies and condemation. nice traits for a christian, hey !!!!! or rather a "pharisee"
Mr. Begg needs to reevaluate his recent statements, consider what other sound teachers and Christian leaders are saying, and consider changing his mind on the matter
Agree💜Alastair needs to repent🙏🌹
