@ - Yeah, and…? Jesus came to introduce something brand new. He said, “the Law and the Prophets were proclaimed UNTIL John the Baptist, but SINCE THAT TIME, the Gospel is being preached”…! The Bible is NOT the foundation of Christianity. The Christian Bible that we have nowadays didn’t even exist until the 4th century. So for the first 300 or so years of Christianity, there was no Bible. But Christianity still spread and thrived anyway. The resurrection is the foundation of Christianity. The apostle Paul made that fact crystal clear. Christianity would STILL be true even if there wasn’t a Christian Bible.
@@antlers163 actually the early church had the Old Testament. So they still had a Bible. Not only that but the writings of the apostles were spread throughout the churches to deal with issues within the church and to help them understand their faith. The point being that God realized we needed it and gave it to us. God knew better than you do. Sorry.
@- they clearly didn’t have THE Bible that we have today. The New Testament didn’t even exist yet. The ONLY reason that the old testament meant anything to the Gentiles is because they were enamored with Jesus, and when the Gentiles realized that the Hebrew Scriptures told of Jesus, they adopted them as their own.
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.

And you know what evolution is and how its processes work it has been explained to you multiple times by multiple different people on multiple different UA-cam videos and for you to deny that is straight up a disingenuous lie.
Evolution was dead in the water when it became popular. No trans fossils, organisms that lived in the fossil record are still with us today. The Precambrian explosion shows all life created at the same time.
As a Christian currently battling a porn addiction, it breaks my heart to hear that there are so many who are "comfortable" with watching it. It's a disgusting thing and it has done nothing in my life but put a wall between me and the Father. Not to mention it's been the made reason for my self loathing. I'm beyond glad that I'm kicking it out of my life and I never ever want to go back. I sincerely hope these Christians understand that and really work to kick it out of their lives.
Jesus will forgive and He will help you with your addiction. He set my Mom free from alcohol. She almost died. She does go to AA as God wants her to do her part in recovery. There are groups for porn addicts.
Thank you very much for this show, still very interesting. Two weeks ago I was at the Ark and was at the Rob's conference. Thank you Rob, it was very interesting 👍
Pornography is the worst thing I've ever encountered, worse than years of mental health issues and suicidal thoughts. I'm 59, and I can vividly remember the first "dirty" magazine I saw back in SIXTH grade! If I could undo any one thing in my life, I would desire to have not seen that magazine. It's been a big problem at times in my life, and it really does have a negative effect on relationships. I praise God that I'm beyond "habitual" viewing of the stuff, but like most men I know it rears its ugly head from time to time. I'm learning my triggers better, and the "just say 'no'" method doesn't always work. I have periods of time that I'm in extreme pain, and that's my number one trigger. All that said, the best defense is to grab the Word instead of pornography. It always works. Thanks for another great show. God bless!
Abraham believed everything YAH Said and it was counted to him as righteousness we are to believe everything YAH says and everything YAHSHUA did ! You guys are right on target keep up the good work
Andy Stanley has been in rapid decline since he began "unhitching" from the bible. He's working hard to make his own religion without Scripture. An Andy Cult.
I’m really glad you’re addressing this, he has been doing interviews with some well known UA-camrs recently and promoting his false theology. Even Satan believes that God created everything and that Jesus rose from the dead- that doesn’t save anyone on its own. We live in sad times😔
So many children of strong believers are opting out of total devotion to Christ. My oldest and youngest have remained steadfast but my middle child has turned away after experiencing a messy church split, finding another church and being happy there and then the pastor passed off the baton to someone totally ill equipped to handle the church and just moved on. Something happened after this. With 6 kids to spiritually influence they now go nowhere, celebrate Halloween and watch horror movies. Praying for them daily and asking for any true Christian believers to join me in prayer for my precious daughter, husband and family. Husband was also raised in a very committed Christian home. Appreciate all prayers from dedicated believers.
@@earthisasphere And you are worried about one word in an entire paragraph plea that l made for true believers to pray for her. Don’t bother. Your prayers would not be effective. She needs prayers of those who abide by the word that says - beloved let us love one another, for love is of God and everyone that loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love doesn’t know God, because God is love. Your comment reflects condemnation and judgement, not love. My concern is for her soul. What she is doing are just reflections of her need to repent and turn back to the God who loves her, not an indictment. Your comment does not reflect love, and therefore wouldn’t be helpful anyway.
As a believer in Christ Jesus I don't understand how any true Christian can be okay with pornography. When God saved me I no longer had a desire for pornography at all. That was many, many years ago.
Everyone has their sin they struggle with. Just because you are a new creature doesn’t mean that you’re perfect yet. Perfection happens after our resurrection.
Jesus is the stumbling block. If you remove it, there is no gospel. Abraham didn't believe 2 things God said; he believed everything God said. Man lives by EVERY word of God.
The Gospel was originally one book, written by Lazarus in consultation with the apostles and published soon after Jesus left them on their own (John 21.24). The Catholic church broke it up and scrambled the text among 4 falsely attributed authorship.
@@EdwardSchwarz-n9jlmao read the early church fathers who lived right after Jesus died. That’s also where we get our info from. What they believed. They wrote a lot.
@justinloughlin1130 I am reading an early church father document. It's called John. That document says Lazarus wrote the Gospel soon after Jesus left them on their own. And another church document Acts 10 confirms Cornelius already had a copy.
There's a big difference between FOLLOW and FAN❕ If someone does TRULY believed Christ's resurrection, they will believe what Christ says... "ALL of scripture is true" 💜✝️💜
Not true, not taught in scripture. “TRULY” believe is an arbitrary statement, means something different to everyone. These people know almost nothing about doctrine. All you MUST believe IN to go to heaven is the gospel. These people don’t even believe the most basic Bible… thats why they have a woman preaching. They condemn themselves by their judgments.
I spend every day feeling the Holy Spirit guide me and then I see comments to a video talking about something they have never felt or even read about...I have to just laugh but I want to cry...
And He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt: Luke 18:9 There is a kind who is pure in his own eyes, Yet is not washed from his filthiness.

Hi, they are wrong. Andy is a good Pastor. They shouldn’t be saying these things. Andy is not a false teacher, he believes in the old & New. He just elevates Jesus from the rest of the Bible, but surely that’s a good thing. Faith in Jesus is obviously more important than a written book.
So, the whole Bible is true, what are your thoughts on Exodus 22:18? Have u killed anyone then?, that’s what the verse suggests. Quite a few others like it. Don’t you think it’s sensible to elevate Jesus from a written book.
Right off the bat, saying that Christians are only required to "believe" two of the miracles in The Bible is a HUGE sign that he has no clue what he's talking about and he certainly isn't being led by The Holy Spirit! If someone thinks it's Ok or even possible to not believe anything in The Bible and also be a Christian they clearly don't know what it is to be a true Christian! The Bible is The Word of God and we know that Jesus is The Word of God and The Son of God. So saying you don't have to believe anything from The Bible is like saying you don't have to believe everything that Jesus said and God said! I pray that The Lord would protect the people who are being deceived, manipulated and misled by the enemy. It seems obvious that the enemy (satan and the fallen angels) is working furiously to get "the world" to not believe in any part of The Bible possible. Because if they can get people to think any part of God's Word is not absolutely true then the next step is that none of it is true and right! DON'T fall for it! Please don't fall for this trick! Also, please spread the word about this to as many as possible to keep the tricks from working. Also please pray for them. Even those who have set themselves as our enemy. If we can inform people about it before they are exposed to it hopefully they will recognize the tricks and won't fall for it when it is presented to them. And for some hopefully we can do our part in rescuing them from what they have already fallen for! Also, because if we pray for them perhaps The Lord will set them free from the influence and delusion that has driven them to be against The Lord and us. Remember, we are called and commanded to Love God with all our heart, mind and soul and also to love our neighbor! I feel like everyone on earth is our neighbor unless they are also a believer and then they are our brothers and sisters in The Lord! If we love them we will want to warn them of the tricks of the enemy and warn them of the debt, burden and consequences of their sin! Because if we love them we won't want anything bad to happen to them now or in the judgement! Hope this helps. I love you all my brothers and sisters in The Lord and my neighbors on the earth!
Not only that, but getting true believers to not read and study their bibles keeps them from learning prophetic events and this makes a Christian very weak. No one at my church taught Bible prophecy and once I read it, the Lord revealed some of it, I started following my friend Lee Brainerd and now I can’t get enough of my Bible.
I'm a man who struggles with pornography. For most people it's a vice and an addictive sin like gossip, shoplifting, lying, pride, fits of rage, and such are for other people. What makes it much easier to give into is that there isn't an obvious victim. With stealing, the store or owner loses items or money, and with gossip someone's reputation is harmed, but with pornography the creator has already victimized themselves, which make it more passive, and easier to give into. There's also fictional pornography, which is becoming a bigger problem with AI. At the end of the day like pastor said to me: the law only brings death, and grace brings life, so you just try to stay in God's grace one day at a time, purge after each fall, and most importantly condemn pornography and warn others, the same with any sin.
Sins of a sexual nature are sin in the body, all others are outside. 1st thessalonians 4:7 tells us its the WILL of God that we abstain from sexual immorality... One way to look at it as.. You ARE married to Christ Jesus, and YOU are committing adultry everytime you partake of this specific sin. Also this sin HURTS millions how? It makes trafficking a big business, new girls needed to fill the high, sexual abuse rises with consumption of pron, plus the children gaining access to this.. All of this hurts millions of people, not to forget the amount of abortions are being committed on account of these abuses.. Then you look into the addiction and what its doing to your neural pathways.. Its destructive on so many levels more than any other sins.

We cannot deny that the Bible contains symbolism, hyperbole, metaphor, similies and parables. However, we need to discern what is literal fact and what is not. People with nefarious goals will tell you this is difficult to do, but it isn't true. We talk this way, freely mixing literal truth and symbolism, hyperbole, etc. and we rarely have trouble separating one from the other. The standard is usually just that what is presented as fact is accepted as such unless and until clearly indicated as not being meant to be taken seriously. So, we need to be very honest with ourselves when reading the Bible. If it says that God commanded the Israélites to kill everyone from a certain tribe, we are not called on to justify or explain away what is said, but to understand as best we can why he said so. That's one example of things people try to twist. If God makes no excuses, neither should you.
As a man who was gloriously and completely delivered from pornography early last year after a 20 year habit, I have a strong desire to help other men quit porn. I’m helping my best friend and a couple of other men at the moment with some good results, but some ongoing struggles for them also. I want to start a ministry helping men to quit porn, but I don’t know where to start. Does anybody have any ideas how I could start such a ministry?
Excellent show, guys. I'd like to say that we should be careful to not make porn a men only problem. Ladies, if you are struggling, you are not the only one.

It is hard to find a gospel preacher these days. I have found that most preachers just preach about anything other than the gospel of the grace of God found in I Corinthians 15:1-4. Most just preach about sin even though God is not imputing the sins of the world (II Corinthians 5:19) and has given forgiveness of all sins to all believers of the gospel of the grace of God (Colossians 2:13). I believe that it is wonderful that believers of the gospel are forever saved (Ephesians 1:13-14) and that we are sealed by the Holy Spirit until the day of our redemption. So why are preachers not preaching this wonderful message every day of the week and twice on Sunday?
Matthew 24:9-13 American Standard Version 9 Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many stumble, and shall [a]deliver up one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray. 12 And because iniquity shall be multiplied, the love of the many shall wax cold. 13 But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.
We as a people do not understand trust so then we do not understand fear so then we do not understand trust so then we do not understand fear. The fear of God is just the beginning of understanding.
Dr. Charles Stanley would roll over in his grave, if there was such a think, over the doctrine Andy is preaching. It is very sad how far Andy has traveled from the TRUTH he grew up hearing from a very Godly dad.
I think these is a difference between don't look vs your heart attitude towards God. Rules won't save you. You can happen to look but it's what you do next could be sin. Legalism undermines Christ within you and is the difference between a rule based life vs relationship based life.

Too bad that what you think is god's word isn't infallible. The prophecies in Ezekiel 29 and Jeremiah 46 and 49 are left unfulfilled, and good ole Nebuchadnezzar who was supposed to fulfill them is long dead. A bat is not a bird, the value of Pi is not 3, and you cannot change the color of an offspring by having the parents mate in front of a bucket of water that contains a stick stripped of its bark, and yet the Bible presents all these things as true. Hell, the gospels even contradict what the Mary M did after the "resurrection."
The prophecies that "weren't fulfilled" is because repentence happened, so the judgment was taken away. As for the other things, you are presenting them in a dishonest way. The bible does not teach false things.
You have to believe in Jesus virgin birth his sinless life his death burial and resurrection his ascension to heaven and his soon return. These are the essentials of the creeds.
That if thou shall confess with your mouth….. that verse is the minimum. The rest is between the person and God. We can build whatever box but God keeps it black and white. And we should inspire development and growth. Catch the fish.

I was listening to Frank Turek and if I heard him correctly, he believes God used evolution, but he also believes that God created Adam from the dust of the ground and Eve from Adam’s rib at some point in time. So there was animal death before Adam & Eve were created. And when they disobeyed God and ate of the forbidden fruit that was when sin entered the world. There are all kinds of problems here, but he would take the side that evolution is true, and the Fall/sin is true.

“All of it’s true or none of it is at all.” Self condemnation, you don’t believe it is all true, you reinterpret anything you don’t like just like everyone else. If you can’t reinterpret it, you’ll just find a false Bible that says it in a way you like. The Bible says a woman is NOT to teach, nor preach, nor usurp authority over a man. Yet one of your three teachers/preachers is a woman. You bring up laws while you break laws. Absurdity.
Yeah, you couldn't twist that passage any more if it were a pretzel. Since the context of the chapter is in regards to the church, and the teaching of the Word, it has no application to this situation as they are a non church body evangelizing organization. Please take your scripture twisting elsewhere.
I agree with you about that teaching, if it's good enough for God's church it's good enough for sciety. However, this woman is not teaching or usurping over men, but in accordance to the two men right next to her.
We must be careful that our interpretation is not erronious. The authors had intentional meanings to their messages, we would do well to learn their principles.

Creation is fact, Evolution is myth
And you know what evolution is and how its processes work it has been explained to you multiple times by multiple different people on multiple different UA-cam videos and for you to deny that is straight up a disingenuous lie.
@@VisshanVis just because a lie is repeated or popular it does not make it true. Evolution is a theory. It has not been proven.
Evolution was dead in the water when it became popular. No trans fossils, organisms that lived in the fossil record are still with us today. The Precambrian explosion shows all life created at the same time.

As a Christian currently battling a porn addiction, it breaks my heart to hear that there are so many who are "comfortable" with watching it. It's a disgusting thing and it has done nothing in my life but put a wall between me and the Father. Not to mention it's been the made reason for my self loathing. I'm beyond glad that I'm kicking it out of my life and I never ever want to go back.
I sincerely hope these Christians understand that and really work to kick it out of their lives.
Jesus will forgive and He will help you with your addiction. He set my Mom free from alcohol. She almost died. She does go to AA as God wants her to do her part in recovery. There are groups for porn addicts.
Thank you very much for this show, still very interesting. Two weeks ago I was at the Ark and was at the Rob's conference. Thank you Rob, it was very interesting 👍
I don't follow Andy Stanley, but I appreciate your covering this issue. It is very helpful.

The Bible is God's inspired word and Dr Charles Stanley was a great Bible teacher
Pornography is the worst thing I've ever encountered, worse than years of mental health issues and suicidal thoughts. I'm 59, and I can vividly remember the first "dirty" magazine I saw back in SIXTH grade! If I could undo any one thing in my life, I would desire to have not seen that magazine. It's been a big problem at times in my life, and it really does have a negative effect on relationships. I praise God that I'm beyond "habitual" viewing of the stuff, but like most men I know it rears its ugly head from time to time. I'm learning my triggers better, and the "just say 'no'" method doesn't always work. I have periods of time that I'm in extreme pain, and that's my number one trigger. All that said, the best defense is to grab the Word instead of pornography. It always works. Thanks for another great show. God bless!
Abraham believed everything YAH Said and it was counted to him as righteousness we are to believe everything YAH says and everything YAHSHUA did ! You guys are right on target keep up the good work
Andy Stanley has been in rapid decline since he began "unhitching" from the bible.
He's working hard to make his own religion without Scripture.
An Andy Cult.
I’m really glad you’re addressing this, he has been doing interviews with some well known UA-camrs recently and promoting his false theology. Even Satan believes that God created everything and that Jesus rose from the dead- that doesn’t save anyone on its own. We live in sad times😔
Amen!
So many children of strong believers are opting out of total devotion to Christ. My oldest and youngest have remained steadfast but my middle child has turned away after experiencing a messy church split, finding another church and being happy there and then the pastor passed off the baton to someone totally ill equipped to handle the church and just moved on. Something happened after this. With 6 kids to spiritually influence they now go nowhere, celebrate Halloween and watch horror movies. Praying for them daily and asking for any true Christian believers to join me in prayer for my precious daughter, husband and family. Husband was also raised in a very committed Christian home. Appreciate all prayers from dedicated believers.
All hail the candy! - Christmas is based off a pagan holiday, and you are worried about one night of dressing up and getting some candy?
@@earthisasphere And you are worried about one word in an entire paragraph plea that l made for true believers to pray for her. Don’t bother. Your prayers would not be effective. She needs prayers of those who abide by the word that says - beloved let us love one another, for love is of God and everyone that loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love doesn’t know God, because God is love.
Your comment reflects condemnation and judgement, not love. My concern is for her soul. What she is doing are just reflections of her need to repent and turn back to the God who loves her, not an indictment. Your comment does not reflect love, and therefore wouldn’t be helpful anyway.
Andy Stanley and Christianity are oxymoron.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤
You won't catch me in Andy Stanley's church, that's for sure! 😱
I feel for his father, even though he is with the Lord.
At this point I think he's becoming a cult leader
As a believer in Christ Jesus I don't understand how any true Christian can be okay with pornography. When God saved me I no longer had a desire for pornography at all. That was many, many years ago.
Everyone has their sin they struggle with. Just because you are a new creature doesn’t mean that you’re perfect yet. Perfection happens after our resurrection.
Also magic, horoscope, rock, dance, martial arts, etc. The devil has many snares to seduce and cause us to stumble and fall.
Jesus is the stumbling block. If you remove it, there is no gospel. Abraham didn't believe 2 things God said; he believed everything God said. Man lives by EVERY word of God.
The Gospel was originally one book, written by Lazarus in consultation with the apostles and published soon after Jesus left them on their own (John 21.24). The Catholic church broke it up and scrambled the text among 4 falsely attributed authorship.
@@EdwardSchwarz-n9jlmao read the early church fathers who lived right after Jesus died. That’s also where we get our info from. What they believed. They wrote a lot.
@justinloughlin1130 I am reading an early church father document. It's called John. That document says Lazarus wrote the Gospel soon after Jesus left them on their own. And another church document Acts 10 confirms Cornelius already had a copy.
From the clips I've seen he should step down rather than condemn himself.
There's a big difference between FOLLOW and FAN❕ If someone does TRULY believed Christ's resurrection, they will believe what Christ says... "ALL of scripture is true" 💜✝️💜
Not true, not taught in scripture. “TRULY” believe is an arbitrary statement, means something different to everyone. These people know almost nothing about doctrine. All you MUST believe IN to go to heaven is the gospel. These people don’t even believe the most basic Bible… thats why they have a woman preaching. They condemn themselves by their judgments.
@@Phearless7485- It is you, who doesn’t understand.
Nothing like his dad.. i miss that man.
The Bible says that a divorced pastor should not serve but Charles Stanley continued to served even after the divorce.
And because of that, I'm a saved man.

Thank you.

And He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt: Luke 18:9
There is a kind who is pure in his own eyes, Yet is not washed from his filthiness. Proverbs 30:12
Do nothing from selfishness and empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves. Philippians 2:3
Hi, they are wrong. Andy is a good Pastor. They shouldn’t be saying these things. Andy is not a false teacher, he believes in the old & New. He just elevates Jesus from the rest of the Bible, but surely that’s a good thing. Faith in Jesus is obviously more important than a written book.
So, the whole Bible is true, what are your thoughts on Exodus 22:18? Have u killed anyone then?, that’s what the verse suggests. Quite a few others like it.
Don’t you think it’s sensible to elevate Jesus from a written book.
Thank you SO much for promoting Truth... The Creators Truth..😊
Right off the bat, saying that Christians are only required to "believe" two of the miracles in The Bible is a HUGE sign that he has no clue what he's talking about and he certainly isn't being led by The Holy Spirit!
If someone thinks it's Ok or even possible to not believe anything in The Bible and also be a Christian they clearly don't know what it is to be a true Christian!
The Bible is The Word of God and we know that Jesus is The Word of God and The Son of God. So saying you don't have to believe anything from The Bible is like saying you don't have to believe everything that Jesus said and God said!
I pray that The Lord would protect the people who are being deceived, manipulated and misled by the enemy.
It seems obvious that the enemy (satan and the fallen angels) is working furiously to get "the world" to not believe in any part of The Bible possible. Because if they can get people to think any part of God's Word is not absolutely true then the next step is that none of it is true and right!
DON'T fall for it! Please don't fall for this trick!
Also, please spread the word about this to as many as possible to keep the tricks from working. Also please pray for them. Even those who have set themselves as our enemy.
If we can inform people about it before they are exposed to it hopefully they will recognize the tricks and won't fall for it when it is presented to them. And for some hopefully we can do our part in rescuing them from what they have already fallen for!
Also, because if we pray for them perhaps The Lord will set them free from the influence and delusion that has driven them to be against The Lord and us.
Remember, we are called and commanded to Love God with all our heart, mind and soul and also to love our neighbor!
I feel like everyone on earth is our neighbor unless they are also a believer and then they are our brothers and sisters in The Lord!
If we love them we will want to warn them of the tricks of the enemy and warn them of the debt, burden and consequences of their sin! Because if we love them we won't want anything bad to happen to them now or in the judgement!
Hope this helps.
I love you all my brothers and sisters in The Lord and my neighbors on the earth!
Not only that, but getting true believers to not read and study their bibles keeps them from learning prophetic events and this makes a Christian very weak. No one at my church taught Bible prophecy and once I read it, the Lord revealed some of it, I started following my friend Lee Brainerd and now I can’t get enough of my Bible.
I'm a man who struggles with pornography. For most people it's a vice and an addictive sin like gossip, shoplifting, lying, pride, fits of rage, and such are for other people. What makes it much easier to give into is that there isn't an obvious victim. With stealing, the store or owner loses items or money, and with gossip someone's reputation is harmed, but with pornography the creator has already victimized themselves, which make it more passive, and easier to give into. There's also fictional pornography, which is becoming a bigger problem with AI.
At the end of the day like pastor said to me: the law only brings death, and grace brings life, so you just try to stay in God's grace one day at a time, purge after each fall, and most importantly condemn pornography and warn others, the same with any sin.
prayed for you!
Amen. Please find my comment. God bless!
Sins of a sexual nature are sin in the body, all others are outside.
1st thessalonians 4:7 tells us its the WILL of God that we abstain from sexual immorality...
One way to look at it as..
You ARE married to Christ Jesus, and YOU are committing adultry everytime you partake of this specific sin.
Also this sin HURTS millions how?
It makes trafficking a big business, new girls needed to fill the high, sexual abuse rises with consumption of pron, plus the children gaining access to this..
All of this hurts millions of people, not to forget the amount of abortions are being committed on account of these abuses..
Then you look into the addiction and what its doing to your neural pathways..
Its destructive on so many levels more than any other sins.
If you believe God created the world, then why could you not believe the word of God?

We cannot deny that the Bible contains symbolism, hyperbole, metaphor, similies and parables. However, we need to discern what is literal fact and what is not. People with nefarious goals will tell you this is difficult to do, but it isn't true. We talk this way, freely mixing literal truth and symbolism, hyperbole, etc. and we rarely have trouble separating one from the other. The standard is usually just that what is presented as fact is accepted as such unless and until clearly indicated as not being meant to be taken seriously. So, we need to be very honest with ourselves when reading the Bible. If it says that God commanded the Israélites to kill everyone from a certain tribe, we are not called on to justify or explain away what is said, but to understand as best we can why he said so. That's one example of things people try to twist. If God makes no excuses, neither should you.
As a man who was gloriously and completely delivered from pornography early last year after a 20 year habit, I have a strong desire to help other men quit porn. I’m helping my best friend and a couple of other men at the moment with some good results, but some ongoing struggles for them also. I want to start a ministry helping men to quit porn, but I don’t know where to start. Does anybody have any ideas how I could start such a ministry?
Excellent show, guys. I'd like to say that we should be careful to not make porn a men only problem. Ladies, if you are struggling, you are not the only one.

For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. Matthew 24:24

It is hard to find a gospel preacher these days. I have found that most preachers just preach about anything other than the gospel of the grace of God found in I Corinthians 15:1-4. Most just preach about sin even though God is not imputing the sins of the world (II Corinthians 5:19) and has given forgiveness of all sins to all believers of the gospel of the grace of God (Colossians 2:13). I believe that it is wonderful that believers of the gospel are forever saved (Ephesians 1:13-14) and that we are sealed by the Holy Spirit until the day of our redemption.
So why are preachers not preaching this wonderful message every day of the week and twice on Sunday?
Matthew 24:9-13
American Standard Version
9 Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many stumble, and shall [a]deliver up one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray. 12 And because iniquity shall be multiplied, the love of the many shall wax cold. 13 But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.

I think these is a difference between don't look vs your heart attitude towards God. Rules won't save you. You can happen to look but it's what you do next could be sin. Legalism undermines Christ within you and is the difference between a rule based life vs relationship based life.

Too bad that what you think is god's word isn't infallible. The prophecies in Ezekiel 29 and Jeremiah 46 and 49 are left unfulfilled, and good ole Nebuchadnezzar who was supposed to fulfill them is long dead. A bat is not a bird, the value of Pi is not 3, and you cannot change the color of an offspring by having the parents mate in front of a bucket of water that contains a stick stripped of its bark, and yet the Bible presents all these things as true. Hell, the gospels even contradict what the Mary M did after the "resurrection."
The prophecies that "weren't fulfilled" is because repentence happened, so the judgment was taken away. As for the other things, you are presenting them in a dishonest way. The bible does not teach false things.
judge them by Isaiah 8: 20 too...

The only miracle that a person needs to believe to be a Christian is that the Bible is the inspired word of god.

Isn’t Andy Stanley just reiterating what the Apostle Paul said what is required to become a Christian and be saved (Romans 10:9)?
I was listening to Frank Turek and if I heard him correctly, he believes God used evolution, but he also believes that God created Adam from the dust of the ground and Eve from Adam’s rib at some point in time. So there was animal death before Adam & Eve were created. And when they disobeyed God and ate of the forbidden fruit that was when sin entered the world.
There are all kinds of problems here, but he would take the side that evolution is true, and the Fall/sin is true.
they claim the starting point is g*d's word. in that case, one must use the original language, yes? if the original language is inspired by g*d there's a large element of hubris to assume we can rewrite g*d and understand

“All of it’s true or none of it is at all.” Self condemnation, you don’t believe it is all true, you reinterpret anything you don’t like just like everyone else. If you can’t reinterpret it, you’ll just find a false Bible that says it in a way you like. The Bible says a woman is NOT to teach, nor preach, nor usurp authority over a man. Yet one of your three teachers/preachers is a woman. You bring up laws while you break laws. Absurdity.
Yeah, you couldn't twist that passage any more if it were a pretzel. Since the context of the chapter is in regards to the church, and the teaching of the Word, it has no application to this situation as they are a non church body evangelizing organization.

*The Enuma Elish would later be the inspiration for the Hebrew scribes who created the text now known as the biblical Book of Genesis.* Prior to the 19th century CE, the Bible was considered the oldest book in the world and its narratives were thought to be completely original. In the mid-19th century CE, however, European museums, as well as academic and religious institutions, sponsored excavations in Mesopotamia to find physical evidence for historical corroboration of the stories in the Bible. ***These excavations found quite the opposite, however, in that, once cuneiform was translated, it was understood that a number of biblical narratives were Mesopotamian in origin.***
*Famous stories such as the Fall of Man and the Great Flood were originally conceived and written down in Sumer,* translated and modified later in Babylon, and reworked by the Assyrians ***before they were used by the Hebrew scribes for the versions which appear in the Bible.***
***In revising the Mesopotamian creation story for their own ends, the Hebrew scribes tightened the narrative and the focus but retained the concept of the all-powerful deity who brings order from chaos.*** Marduk, in the Enuma Elish, establishes the recognizable order of the world - *just as God does in the Genesis tale* - and human beings are expected to recognize this great gift and honor the deity through service.

From a Biblical scholar:
"Many stories in the ancient world have their origins in other stories and were borrowed and modified from other or earlier peoples. *For instance, many of the stories now preserved in the Bible are* ***modified*** *versions of stories that existed in the cultures and traditions of Israel’s* ***older*** *contemporaries.* Stories about the creation of the universe, a cataclysmic universal flood, digging wells as land markers, the naming of important cultic sites, gods giving laws to their people, and even stories about gods decreeing the possession of land to their people were all part of the cultural and literary matrix of the ancient Near East. *Biblical scribes freely* ***adopted and modified*** *these stories as a means to express their own identity, origins, and customs."*

Mmm mmm these deceits arent even well done.
Stanley is a wolf and obvious one.
Now , even if he was not a dumbed down pulpit leads to dumbed down Christians and the Bible speaks against ignorant Christians.
So… either way he is wrong.
Stanley is not a true pastor but a wolf in sheep’s clothing leading many astray.
