Thank you brother Tim for explicitly calling out sin for what it really is. Dear saints, the trumpets are blowing. He who has ears, let him hear. Thanks again.
Realizing that Jesus has the words of eternal life - This is grace. We're already called then we receive the words of God by his grace when we hear the words of eternal life. Qe cannot follow Jesus unless by the grace of God.
Dearest LORD Jesus please give us a love for you like meat loves SALT. A love that purifies us as you sanctifies us and in YOU alone preserves us for yourself. We saints are so very weak and needy but you Lord are very strong and gives us your wise counsel daily abounding in mercy that is new each morning. Please help us to listen, hear than understand and then follow you with the right heart motives. Please be our prizefighter by helping us to love you more than our own sin and it's temporary pleasures or what the crowd says. Reach down into our hearts and take the weeds out, please made our hearts a fragrant tranquil garden of delights for you. Your much more than a get out of jail/hell card in some cosmic game. You are life and in you it's eternal. Life with you Amen
Another convicting message by you Brother Timothy....I must be ready for radical change in my walk with Christ....finally the teacher has appeared to expose those areas of my life that have gotten too comfortable, too satisfied and too self sufficient. I have dealt mostly with needing to seek humility in my walk with Christ and it always requires me to be broken first always at the point I think I have surrendered all he exposes something I took so much for granted so long I did not recognize it to be a problem in my life. Blessing to all through this week. I cannot wait for the work GOD plans to do in me..
Beautiful sermon God bless you all brother from I'll be honest. You all have been a great help thank you i say this w all heart God bless u and Glory to God !!!!
Great message! Way to put it in perspective! I would definitely appreciate prayers as I struggle with lust and have been tempted to go back to sin lately. I also thank God for what He’s already done in me to draw me to Himself and away from sin.
"The bible got one of the easiest moral questions that humanity has ever faced, wrong... slavery. What are the odds that the bible got something as complicated as human sexuality wrong? 100%." -Dan Savage
I was thinking about 2 passages today. One from Solomon: "There are three things that are too amazing for me, four that I do not understand: the way of an eagle in the sky, the way of a snake on a rock, the way of a ship on the high seas, and the way of a man with a young woman. (These were the amazing things to him) And the following one from Job: I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman. 2 For what is our lot from God above, our heritage from the Almighty on high? 3 Is it not ruin for the wicked, disaster for those who do wrong? 4 Does he not see my ways and count my every step? 5 “If I have walked with falsehood or my foot has hurried after deceit 6 let God weigh me in honest scales and he will know that I am blameless 7 if my steps have turned from the path, if my heart has been led by my eyes, or if my hands have been defiled, 8 then may others eat what I have sown, and may my crops be uprooted. 9 “If my heart has been enticed by a woman, or if I have lurked at my neighbor’s door, 10 then may my wife grind another man’s grain, ----------- And we know which one of these men ultimately died a fool. Solomon's thoughts were not on God, they were in the clouds with young women. The commitment a person has for Jesus can be seen in their marital commitments..Their faithfulness is towards God and that is reflected in their commitment to the oath and seriousness of that oath they made to God on that wedding day. A binding oath. Maybe for a woman it's easier. I don't know. What I do know is that for me to look at another man is to say that man is better than Jesus. A man can give you a bouquet but Jesus has given us a world of of flowers. A man can give you time but Jesus has given us eternity. A man can give you his life but Jesus has given us His life, His death and His spirit. What mere mortal can compare? Being with my husband for 25 years I can tell you the past 6 with Christ in the center have been THE MOST incredible of our lives. This was a refreshing sermon. Many pastors are too wrapped up in their own conviction (or lack there of) towards lust that you rarely hear this topic deeply delved into.
This sermon is very excellent, I will be using it as a model for my own preaching. One point of correction, regarding the statements at 11:34 The word "word" there is "logos" and does not mean "word" in the sense of vocabulary. It means "something said", but more exactly the word "logos" means "something laid forth" specifically referring to something said. In English, we have an extremely similar word: "promise". The "pro" means "forth" and the "mise" means "set/put" so a promise is something set forth specifically referring to something said. We can equally say "I have given you my promise" or "I have given you my word" but in centuries past the connotation was more like "I have stated it" because our yes is to be yes and our no to be no and any more than that is sin. Over time, the word promise has been branded with a more specific connotation of being an oath, which is ironic given how it got to be that way. In modern English, the correct translation of "logos" is "statement". Tracing the etymology back, we see that "state" means "setting" and is rooted in the idea of setting something in a place, and the "ment" simply means "the result thereof". So "statement", in English, means the result of setting something in place, specifically referring to something said. The word "statement" has the meaning, etymology, and connotation which make it the exact English translation of "logos". While, in English, we don't apply "statement" in the philosophical sense as Greeks would apply "logos", it is the same word and the difference is simply that, in Greek culture, they had a philosophical concept called "the Statement" which John declares became flesh being Jesus the Christ and dwelled among us. All of that is easy to research and test, except for what I said about "mise" (in "promise") because that one took some digging, but I did find it.
Remember, the bigger issue is this: Is your hope in Christ? Yes, the believer will have evidences in their life...but be so careful to not make your performance an idol in anyway.

You are incorrect on the matter that Jesus raised Himself from the dead. It is GOD FATHER and HIM THE SON that done it. Same way u can raise yourself, but not without GOD THE FATHER. 1- Jesus says destroy this temple and I will raise it up in there days. = 1- HE IS SPEAKING FOR THE FATHER. 2- HE is speaking for on your behalf. ++then u have the Apostle -GOD THE FATHER WHO RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD IS SURE TO QUICKEN UR MORTAL SOULS TOO.= 1 GOD THE FATHER IS THE ONLY THAT DECIDES WHO IS ALIVE AND DEAD. only THE FATHER can decide to show u HIS FACE. Thus U r dead gone. Out of creation then. 2- u born a liar can become true to be reborn, your choice to choose the lie or truth, hence adultery is a god damned idol god playing kids stealing lie invocation of the evil one. To hate GOD, hate the gift of GOD UR BRIDE the mother of ur kids. now if u humble not take the fall in pride but to suffer humility to be honored. Then u have come to the truth ur LORD ur husbandman to cover u, and u fill up with living waters. Hence u will never thirst. Why three days, u dehydrate, dust back too, thus then after three days u live u filled up with the living Waters. This is ISAIAH 55 That u filled up with, to live forever thus u will raise urself from the destruction for u filled up with THE FATHERS TRUTH, AND THIS IS THE WORD OF LIFE THE ONLY TO GOD! And thus THE FATHER RAISES U BY WHAT THE FATHER GAVE U. if u can not understand these things, the reflection of the image of GOD by the TRUTH and not satanic lies how u chooses this, the same moral choice from kindergarten class ur whole life then u have chosen to serve demons idols and tell the kids a shit load of perverted lies. Build prisons be slaves slaughter the righteous. NOTHING is ever done without THE FATHER Christ Himself told u this. Stop being greater than ur Messiah ur lord the truth. For it is the first and second command which is the whole of all the law.
You know what would help a lot with a lot of people.......... if wives and husbands would have intimacy more often. And actually give in to each other. As the Bible commands. I am a firm advocator of something called Catharsis. A release of emotions to help get rid of any future problems of something called lust. A husband or wife could be a "stumbling block" by refusing to give into their partner. As it damages a person psychologically and dampers their self esteem. It also doesn't help that society is facing something called Post Modernism. An idea that words and truth simply don't mean anything. How does this do with lust? For starters, if people don't know how to talk to each other, well, its a problem when people are trying to find suitable wives and husbands for each other. The courting process is lost amidst chaos. If I try to compliment a attractive person at church, I as a man, could get reprimanded for someone simply giving a compliment like I like your hair, while trying to engage in a social construct. A lot of people nowadays, tend to think you have ulterior motives, thinking that something bad will happen in the future, if I try to take them out on a proper date. And it doesn't help that technology and Feminism, has run rampant in churches, sheep being led astray in this thinking, has caused the good dating pool to all but vanish. For myself personally, If I would find a suitable wife, most of struggles when it comes to thinking about something like sex would dissipate. As it would satisfy what GOD had actually intended from the beginning. That man and woman would become one flesh and would obey the actual law. Its better to get married, then commit devastating crimes against GOD via fornication. But hey, I am just a man on the internet writing this, in hopes churches would actually push back against the Femini LBGTQIA NAZIS TIDE. And would actually do its bloody job and rebuke people, the way Jesus did.
What a load of nonsense, if your wife is refusing you sex then it's her problem, you have lots of options, pornography and masturbation is always a good substitute or you can hire a lady of the night occasionally, last option for you is to get a girlfriend, remember if there's no sex then there's no relationship.
@@Lili-Benovent You get a divorce first. Chances are, if a wife and husband aren't doing it frequently enough, then there are also other problems in the relationship. The divorce is last resort. Then you get remarried to someone else. Porn, Masturbation and adultery and fornication are all condemned by God. And for good reason.
@@noexitnoproblem6037 He can divorce his wife if he wants to, that's one solution for him but in the meantime there are multiple ways of fulfilling his sexual appetite, if he visits a bar any night of the week he'll find there are lots of opportunities to have a little fun and God doesn't care because God doesn't exist.
@@noexitnoproblem6037 I think Jesus must be very lonely, after all he has never had a proper relationship with a woman, all his time on Earth was spent hanging around with twelve young single men, perhaps it`s time Jesus lost his virginity and I am just the person to introduce him to the pleasures of the flesh, Just imagine God is sitting on his throne, about to judge me and I ask him to allow Jesus to escort me outside because I`m feeling a little woozy, Jesus takes me out to the sick room and we spend 30 minutes sinning, when we return Jesus has a big smile on his face as he addresses his Dad, "Daddy, Lili and I are now engaged to be married so please don`t judge her harshly" God is delighted and wants to pay for our honeymoon, This is where Jesus and I have our first tiff, he wants to have our love vacation touring Heaven and I want it to be in the bowels of Hell, gambling at one of Satan’s Casinos, drinking booze and listening to heavy metal rock n roll music, Oh Dear, not even married yet and we have to attend counselling, this reads like an episode of THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL - - -- to be continued - - -

Brilliant preaching
He always preaches without compromise. GOD bless you Pastor.
Thank you brother Tim for explicitly calling out sin for what it really is. Dear saints, the trumpets are blowing. He who has ears, let him hear. Thanks again.
Jesus's words are life, abiding by his will provides all that you ask through him.
Lord help us!!
Thank you so much
Humble PRAYER is key to spiritual growth. He will give us His Spirit freely if we ask Him.
So true.
Great sermon! We need to hear more Bible preaching like this!
"We gotta live on our knees", looking towards CHRIST!
Tim is very capable in his area, Jesus bless

(These were the amazing things to him)
And the following one from Job:
I made a covenant with my eyes
not to look lustfully at a young woman.
2 For what is our lot from God above,
our heritage from the Almighty on high?
3 Is it not ruin for the wicked,
disaster for those who do wrong?
4 Does he not see my ways
and count my every step?
5 “If I have walked with falsehood
or my foot has hurried after deceit
6 let God weigh me in honest scales
and he will know that I am blameless
7 if my steps have turned from the path,
if my heart has been led by my eyes,
or if my hands have been defiled,
8 then may others eat what I have sown,
and may my crops be uprooted.
9 “If my heart has been enticed by a woman,
or if I have lurked at my neighbor’s door,
10 then may my wife grind another man’s grain,

Can you preach on the attributes of God?
Brother Tim, spot on. Mega church's hmmmm!
What can I do if I don't want to be saved on his terms or thinking that this is not what I signed up for?
You have to turn from that self-centered mindset and acknowledge it before the Lord and agree with His terms.
Pastor Conway; if I try hard daily to obstain from pornography but sometimes fall short and fail, will I go to Hell?
