Ex-Muslim converted to Christianity years ago, and when I became Christian I realized how to pray and talk to God as a dear friend and with all my flows and sins God is my father and he still loves me and my sins are forgiven by the grace of Jesus Christ who died for my sins so I can live. ❤
You feel so insecure about your Christian belief that feel the need to go to those who are firm in their belief (Muslims) and portray yourself as an “ex-Muslim” to cast doubt in them. You do this because you’re envious of Muslims and you hate that they feel content with their religion. You’re a pathetic waste of Iife.
@@hamodalbatal464 if I you asked you to recite Sura Al Fatiha, I guarantee you wouldn’t be able to. Which means if you actually were Muslim and not an insecure christian, it might have been for a day or two tops.
That is more of a position of power in the face of struggle than giving up, which leads to nowhere and gives no benefit. But, a question arises, why so much hardship and strife in human life? Aren't we ourselves at fault for it?

Totally cool little brother! You summed what it took me 65 years to understand. Wrong teaching, perfectionism, self effort... What a mess... My whole life is different now-living from the love of God and what He has done FOR me through Jesus. Thanks for sharing!
When I tried to do it myself I was always anxious sad scared and thought I needed to be the best. When I let go of my pride and asked for a relationship and my father teach me that changed everything the more I spend time with the father the more I want to spend with him and the more he repairs and changes me. I Love The Father The Son and the Holy beloved Companion and is a most precious gift.
Believe in Yeshua (the Messiahs real name) John 5:43 acts 4:12 He came in His Fathers name Yehovah and Yeshua means salvation. Then we gotta keep Gods commandments 1st John 5:2-4 1st John 2:2-6 John 14:15-21 which includes the Saturday sabbath dawn to dawn the 4th commandment and all the rest. Then we don’t eat unclean animals Leviticus 11 Isaiah 66 and 65. Not breaking Gods commandments includes not doing pagan holidays like Christmas Easter Halloween etc. and again it’s all because if we truly believe in Yeshua and His words we will do what He says, and if we don’t we are liars
@ Isaiah 66:15-17 hasn’t happened yet. Neither has the new covenant per Jeremiah 31:31-35 Hebrews 8:6-13 and Ezekiel 37.. Israel and Judah have not become one again, and we still have to teach the word of God which won’t happen in the new covenant
@@slowwrx1049Do not listen to that false worker you replied to!!! We are in the new covenant and are not bound to old testament laws. We rest in Jesus as our Sabbath. Do not listen to false workers.
I had this realization earlier this year. Ended up being led to read Eph 2:8-9 one day when I asked God, “why do you even like me if it’s not about what I do” and after I came to the revelation that he loves me simply bc I exist was like…overwhelming. And even the “good works” that I do from here on out, are works that He has already prepared for me to walk in…they’re not even mine. And it’s all for His glory, not for me to look good. Realizing this this year literally saved me from walking away from God bc I was so close to giving up completely - He’s always near and willing to draw you to Himself if you too are willing. Thanks for the video

@@blackananaas I'll pray for you. I became a Christian 7 years ago and I struggle with faith sometimes too. But if I didn't know God, I don't know where I would be right now. Thanks to Him, I can love myself and know that I am forgiven. I hope you will experience His love too.
Yeshua doesn’t expect us to be perfect or to do good works, but promises we will be inspired to do so- He DOES; however, command us to repent and confess our sins to one another - of which the Protestant churches goers (at least in my experience) rarely do.
WOW! So much to say about this. I needed it in a way I can't explain here. For someone lived a horrendous life, who didn't get saved until I was 54, I have always struggled with EARNING His love. For 10 years, I have failed, fumbled, stumbled and grumbled...because I CAN'T! I can't meet Your standard of perfection, Lord! To which He says 'That's right! You can't! But I can, and I did! So follow Me.' Thank you for giving this old guy a new perspective on a truth I already knew...but didn't take to heart.
You have salvation through God’s GRACE, there’s no earning or working for it, it’s freely given, through Christ’s substitutionary death on the cross for all of our personal sins. All you do is let God know you believe that. It’s just that simple.
@zuzuspetals9281 Thank you for your response. I am in total agreement 🤝 with all you said. In fact, I could have done a better job explaining this was the whole point, all my striving was fruitless because He paid it all! As He said on the cross "It is finished."
I died in 2021 two times. The first time I went to hell. I was not Christian but after my confusion of where I was at and what was happening to me I cried out from my heart for Jesus to save me. He pulled me out of there instantly. I then died again on the operating table and I didn't go back to that horrible place. I went someplace else and he spoke to me and I felt his love that is undescribable in words. There is so much more to my story but not enough room to write it out here. I can tell you I am Christian now and I understand what you have gone through. I have to remind myself of my experience to this point, I was not a Christian or even saved but when I cried out for him he came and saved me. I accepted his free gift and have put my faith in him knowing that I won't go back to that horrible place when it truly is my time to go. Don't be fooled if he came to save me as a non believe he will do the same for those that already have faith in him. It truly is beautiful. I try everyday to walk the righteous path and fall short everyday in my thoughts or by my mouth. I don't sin outwardly but I still sin and I don't live in it. I ask for forgiveness many times daily knowing that he will save me because of his grace as he did when I died. I to am a perfectionist and find myself falling into those thoughts but then remind myself of the fallen world we live in and only Jesus was perfect and we will never come near to that. So I fall off the horse daily and get right back up on it in repentance. Sorry for the book but he saved me for a reason and I believe it is to tell my story. There is allot more but again not enough space here. Thank you and God Bless you all
You are not alone brother, Jesus did something similar to me 6 months ago. I'm only young and human (18y male) so I don't understand it all but with the gift that he gave me (being reborn specifically, but much more) it would be so so so wrong of me to not choose Him since He chose us. At the end of the day we have free will and the fact that we are all here means 99% of people here are already on the right path. By the glory of God, through Him, we are saved. Faith is just another gift we receive when we choose Him with our chaotically yet beautiful structured free will.
@@RikkoshayeI have not completely written it out as I told a very short version when I was baptized last year and have only told it in it's entirety verbally. I do need to write it down for sure.
@@the4ngelcruz it was a gift for sure because before my death I was not living for Jesus and only for myself. Since then he has changed my life dramatically for the better and I live for him now. I look back on my life and can't believe I lived the way I did. My life would have been so much better if I had accepted Jesus early in my life. It truly was a gift and a second chance!
I needed this SO MUCH. It appeared on my feed , I watched and cried and cried. I'm 66, you are so very young but you get it more than I ever have. Thank you xx
I struggle with this. A LOT. Because I am HYPER aware of my failures, my sins, my iniquities... And, I doubt my salvation because of it. And, that doubt eats me up... often... on the daily. The doubt that I could only get less than perfection and the thought of being told to go away on judgement day robs me of joy. And, I don't know how to fix it. Even when I am met with renewed mercies everyday. I pray God puts me in the path of other Christians who understand this message, who also show love and grace with great understanding of scriptures.
I have sinned so tearable , even after I received a miracle . I had my ideal home & always thought I didn't deserve it . I believe I got a spanking , lost the home . But I'll take it , because god loved me enough to straighten my path . Be grateful & be aware of temptations. It's the evil one giving you guilt , you've already been forgiven . As soon as you have the though of guilt , think NO Satan leave me in Jesus name . Repeat if necessary .
God made Jesus to be sin (who knew no sin), so that we (who knew no righteousness) could be made the righteousness of God (that 100 perfect score) IN CHRIST (2 Cor 5:21). In Christ (by trusting in Christ's death burial and resurrection to justify us), we are perfect before God with Christ's perfection. This is the grace (can not earn it or deserve it) of God, and it is a free gift for anyone who believes. Romans 5:17-18. So just trust it. I personally know that Christ is my only Hope for salvation. He is enough. I am the righteousness that God requires, because I am IN CHRIST by faith.
Hey I just finished reading this book called cross centered life by cj Mahaney, that book I think would be such a wonderful thing for you to delve into. It it a pretty easy and short read as well. And as you come to scriptural references in it, look those up and take them to heart.
Remember these: Romans 4:5: But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Jonah 3:10: And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not. In essence, when you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, your faith is thereafter justified, and you require no other works to attain salvation. As you can see from the verses in Jonah, turning from evil ways is referred to as a work, so indeed, no amount of repenting of sins will earn you salvation, for it cannot be earned to begin with. (This does not mean you should not turn from sin, but whatever sins you do commit, it does not mean you are not saved; as it is written in Romans 8:1, There is therefore now no condemnation to those that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.) If you understand that Jesus Christ was resurrected by God from the dead, and you receive the free gift of his grace (which is not of your own works, lest you should boast), you shall be saved, and you can be assured that you are sealed unto the day of redemption, and no man, not even yourself, can take you out of the Father's hand. Matthew 18:11: For the Son of Man is come to save that which was lost. May God's peace and grace be with you in Jesus' name.
This understanding is what has been helping me get through a really tough time. My wife passed away in her sleep 18 days ago, and her and I coming together and getting married was an answered prayer and a true miracle. I too, spent a lot of time yelling at God -- why didn't He talk to me? Well, He still never has audibly talked to me, but after my prayer being answered I told Him I would never deny what He'd done for me. When I found my wife had passed, all I could do was thank God over and over again. I'm so grateful for that, and for what Jesus did for all of us on that cross.
Bless you, young man! I hope this message touches many people. Older people are relating because we were taught to earn God's love through works. How sad! The church is being sifted...thank you Jesus!!
I recently saw a video where a man was having fun being playful while him and his wife worked on some thing in the garage and he stepped out for a minute to get some thing and came back and she had passed away just like that. He has four kids And I can’t imagine what they are going through. But he has faith and you could tell that he knew he would see her again and that God’s timing is perfect. I’ll keep you in my prayers, trust God and his timing. My wife left me 2 years ago and I had no hope but to trust in God and he has made me stronger than I’ve ever been.
Some people go out to see the man in fine clothing that lives in a castle. Not the stone the builders rejected. God finds value in what isn't good enough for the perfect builders
That's what sets christianity apart from other religions. Jesus loved us and died for us BEFORE we even decided to follow Him. We can't do anything to make God love us more neither to make Him love us less. Took me so much time to fully understand it. God still loves us the same. We don't do things for God to earn His love and blessings but BECAUSE of His love for us, out of grateful heart. When you sin don't hide from God but run to Him. Another thing that I wish I understood sooner, could save me from so much pain.
Goodness is required TO A DEGREE, "Follow MY commandments, --IF you LOVE me..." suggests the Lord might say we do NOT love the Lord to not do so just as, "I knew you not" he replied to the man whom said, "but Lord, I proclaimed you.. ", THO' Christ's "yoke is EASY" as ALL LAW can be fulfilled observing the TOP TWO (love-based) commandments that "ALL laws hang upon", THO' the 2nd is not easily learned per Exodus 20 "bowing to graven images" the Lord indirectly ties to "loving thy neighbors" because should a many bow inappropriately, it likely empowers a "Beast" that enslaves us all, which is not very nice for our neighbors.
OMGOSH I’m crying. I needed this Jaden. What you said was spot on. I recommitted my life to him just now thanks to you and your words. Pray for me and for those that the TRUST IN ME part is a second by second struggle as I find myself trying to fix myself all by myself, and you can imagine who that goes. Thank you Jaden. I thank God I found this message and am sending it to all my friends.
Please keep posting more !!!!! Ur videos r helping soooo many , it’s not about the numbers , it’s about the one soul each day ur voice is helping to get down off the ledge and back on solid ground with Christ !
Jaden, mate, this video was awesome. It spoke at a level that im not sure how to describe. You spoke about some difficult concepts in such a clear, concise and understandable way, this is a masterpiece frankly. As a fairly recent person who has come to Christ, thank you. God bless. 🙏 ✝️
I've been going through more than words can describe since 2020. My life has flipped upside down and my faith and mental health have all been tested and pushed past their limits... Everyday is a battle and yet there's never any noise or pain, it's really a silent battle I've numbed to the point of I don't remember. Thank you for this testimony and giving to people something they needed/might need. God Bless you ✝️❤️
Thank you, my brother in Christ, for making this video. I have been having some doubts and questioning that was a mix of spiritual warfare and personal lack of faith. The Lord used you to help me get back on the path He wants me to be on. God Bless 🙏🏼
Second time listener. I listened to this message twice. That’s how good it was. You have the gift of sharing the gospel in a plain and simple way. Our backgrounds are very different. Our future is the same. I never went to church until I was in my late 20s. At the age of 27 at my very lowest point I called out with a very simple prayer. God/Jesus if you’re real I need you and I need you now. I found out that very day he’s real. I could sense that something was different. I couldn’t put it in the words at the time. I can now. I became a new creation in Christ. Fortunately, I came into this with no baggage. I have never doubted my salvation for even a minute. I am paid for. I belong to Christ. He owns me. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is our assurance of salvation.
This came at a time when I thought I didn't need it. I put up the video just to have something in the background until I heard you really speak and now, though not comforted, am relieved. I genuinely NEEDED this. I have been working a project, funny enough it's also on the topic of film. It has nothing to do with my career in aviation, but it has everything to do with myself. It's personal to me. I want to send the message of "It Takes a Village to Help a Village." But this giant-undertaking has been sending me to a spiral lately and I just don't feel like I'll ever be good enough to get the message across on the film. But this video, and others like it is like pulling a cookie out of a jar, it helps. So much. So-so much. Your story with showing your short-film and the fact that your self-worth doesn't come from your works is a calling for me. It might take me a while, but I hope to really dig into my mind and heart and soul that my works won't get me to Heaven, it's Jesus. And He is more than enough. So, thank you and God bless.

Hello Jaden, I listened before sharing and gladly sharing your work!!!! Here is what I wrote to the person who shared it with me: I just got done listening to the little video. Passed it on with notes to my youngest daughter who does still resist.. but i believe (or pray) she will be a firm believer in the end. She is surrounded by friends who would benefit from this young speaker with very good wisdom. There are themes in there that are familiar to many of our new generation preparing for the work force.... whatever job they are preparing for, to be strong and courageous, sure of their steps. This videotographer will surely help make a difference count and I can't wait to see some of his work in film. He puts the point across well and in simple language easy for ANYONE to understand and he is not afraid though admittingly uncomfortable or awkward, he does not allow those words to stop him and his true course of action 💓💞 Jaden, Keep up the good work you do❤ we all need the inspiration of your hearts' desires and to in turn inspire you as well with love❤❤❤
I can totally feel that Iam not the only one of our heavenly family going from lukewarm to hot in the last months. Seals. My hope for your wellbeing rests with the holy father, I love you brother! FOR JESUS!
Be cold and refreshing, or hot. The point is to not be just the same as those around you drinking the same lukewarm water (context for that specific city), wearing and having faith in same gold/money, or boasting of things we have (eye salve).
Thank you for posting this video. You clearly stated what it took me many more decades to learn. I applaud you for sharing and I wish I could have known this when I was your age. Organized religion has misguided me for too long. I was never taught to pray in the name of Jesus, for help and forgiveness. My life and my place in it has totally changed for the better. I have a peace, love and contentment that I never knew could be possible here on Earth and it’s all because of Jesus, not church, priests, ministers. If I may add one other perspective...in my younger days, when I struggled, I too thought it was because God wasn’t pleased with me. My perspective has totally changed now. My fears and my doubts weren’t because of God, but because of the evil one planting seeds of fear, doubt, shame and guilt etc. This is why I am spiritually connected to Jesus everyday to keep the evil one at bay. Hallelujah!
Imagine living in a world where Jaden Patterson has a significantly better understanding of the gospel than Jordan Peterson. But in all seriousness fantastic video my friend you hit the nail right on the head! We must never forget the importance of Grace in our journey in the faith. In the words of Johnathan Edward’s “we contribute nothing to our salvation but the sin that made it necessary” Goodness comes from our salvation not to secure it.
I needed to be reminded of this again today. Thank you for this reminder - as a fellow perfectionist, I feel your pain of only seeing your flaws. Thank God that it's not about me and my flaws but about Jesus and His scars!
Peace and blessings brother I’m glad you got to know our Father that close we never deserved what He did on the cross but who He is is what I trust and His roots are in Love and Perfect Grace all we need is Faith keep it coming the world needs powerful testimony
Well Jaden, you have made a perfect short film ! I struggled with the same thing as I am a perfectionist myself. What you have done here will bring someone to Christ. I know this because if I was not a Born Again Believer and follower of Christ this message would have taken me in to Him. I love you Brother. I will see you in Heaven real soon !
Well Done! So thankful you took time to put your thoughts together for us on video. Praise Jesus! So so thankful for this♥️ So many views🎉🎊 So many likes🎊🎉
I will be 65 next month, and I've went through this since I was a child and it got worse after I got saved because God is perfect and I never thought I could measure up or be good enough. You are a very wise young man, and I thank you for sharing your story. God bless you 🙏
Thank you so much for so clearly presenting the message of the GOOD NEWS...TGE GOSPEL! I just shared this in a few different ways with prayer tgat God will open hearts to BELIEVE AND RECEIVE... AND FOLLOW JESUS ❤
That was powerful. Your delivery and understanding were exactly what I needed to hear. I am grateful you shared this analogy of what Jesus is supposed to represent and do.

Thank you for this video. Really, life is not easy when you are a perfectionist and trying to follow God at the same time. I focus on my flaws too much, and other people's flaws... I fall short of God's glory every single day but still I try, I know God is still working in my life. It sucks sometimes, knowing that I am not good enough and never will be, but being perfect is not what matters. I have to keep reminding myself that nobody is good enough in His eyes and humble myself. It's not always easy, but with God, anything is possible. Thank you again for the reminder. Stay safe, God bless you and your family
I’m 2:15 into this video. I’m a 46 year old woman. I’m a Christian, and unfortunately, also a lifelong perfectionist. I have never related to anyone so completely in such a short amount of time, I am dumbfounded… you just summed up the last 25 years of my life with your description of your feelings toward God here. I’ve come to accept a lot more of God’s love as I’ve aged, but I’m just blown away right now that you articulated this so perfectly… bravo!! Ok, now going to finish the video 😅
This is the best explanation I have heard. Thank you this is a beautiful way to explain how so many of us was raised by ( how bad we are) and told that everyday blessings to you.
Jayden this is brilliant. I love that opening line. It is perfect for a T-shirt: ‘ Christianity is not about being a good person’ … I find T-shorts are very effective especially in the gym … now on to hearing the rest of your video
Let your light AND good deeds shine before men. We are saved by grace through faith in his merciful atonement... and then we follow and reveal his presence that has changed us into people who carry his presence and do good.. we do all things to bring him glory. He wants to shape us into his character. An ongoing sanctification until he changes us completely through death. Thankfully, we are new creations through accepting his Holy Spirit. We have been made perfect through baptism in his death and resurrection. Be perfect and be holy... through the cross.
This video moved me more than anything I have heard about Jesus or watched about Christian testimonies, and I have watched many. All I can say is thank you for posting this and God bless you abundantly. You made it all make sense. I am so grateful. 🙏✝️
Brother you don’t know how spot on this is man, especially being a growing artist/filmmaker and learning more about the craft. It brings a lot of overthinking and thoughts of perfection. You summarized it all in a great way to see the Gospel from a different perspective. Thank you my brother. Continue to let God work thru you with these simple/yet fruitful videos.
Well done sir! I believe we are on the brink of another great awakening because of people like you and countless others bringing the gospel to millions online! God open up the internet to countries like Iran, China and North Korea so they can hear this message!
I was on a downward spiral of artistic perfection for a while. Super focused on being the best in the class, making the best art I could possibly make, constantly working on some sort of creative project. Then God took away from me the most important relationship of my life and it sucks to be honest. But if I had never met that person, spent 3 years with them, and saw the love of a Christian I never would have come back to faith. I was stuck in this limbo for so long about my faith and if I had continued down that path I would have ended up miserable. Honestly I am quite blessed that the relationship I was in ended with love and compassion, that I have finally stopped focusing on being the best in whatever craft I'm interested, and having come back to Jesus. I'm not where I want to be (not even close), but I think I'm where I need to be. I find a lot of comfort in that.
@@dontneverquit Thank you for the video, it has really helped me. We're both stupid young (I'm 22) but at least for me it feels like I've been around for forever. The guilt and shame from failure eats at me, but it's part of the human experience. Can't be perfect no matter how hard we try. As Kendrick said "If God got us then we gon be alright"
What a beautiful mess this was thank you so much. The amount of love Jesus has for you must be such a grand thing, I only saw an almost imperceptible amount in comparison, and it was vastly heartwarming my friend. For forty years I've struggled and the simple way you spelled it out just feels like instant love no struggle at all. So grateful for your walk with Jesus and Merry Christmas!
I'm 56 and it took me all this time to finally understand this message. I never thought I was worthy and no matter how much money I made I still thought I was unworthy of real love and loyalty. The worst part is that people knowingly or unknowingly capitalize on this to the max. Jesus saves. Beautifully said! Thank you brother.
Very happy you posted this, God wanted you to.. God did give us a handbook thankfully... Bible - Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth 🌎 Pray for all those that do not know ✝️
Such an awesome testimony, Bro. This video showed up randomly in my feed, so first video of yours I've seen. I pray that God uses you and your channel to reach the lost. As Christians, we sometimes need to be reminded just how Holy God is and that without Christ, we are nothing. Our true worth can only be found in Him. Thank you for standing strong in your faith, young man.
Beautiful. I had similar struggles in my view of God and myself/my worth. By His grace and through His spirit my view was transformed and my weakness became something to boast in that His power would be shown in me. Still a wrestle at times for me as my humanity and redeemed self clash and my fleshly perfectionism tries to win me over, but God is faithful and He is my perfection as He sanctifies me. Thank you for sharing
It's the story of the prodigal son, the evil brother and the good brother were both living from performance, but the Father lived from blood / family - You are perfect right now Hebrews 10:14
Perfect. I am going to show this to my children because I think you may be able to help them understand where I am missing the mark. Thank you for being brave and posting this. Keep being brave in your faith little brother. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😆 Dude! You are such a great vessel of the LORD! Oh my, what a wholesome message packed with TRUTH! I was so caught off guard there after nine minutes or so 😆 Sincere goodness 😁
Bro. Thank you so much por posting this video. I really needed to hear this. I recently started praying and going to church because I started to see that maybe Christianity is meant to be about unconditional Love and acceptance. I had a couple of experiences where I felt my heart loosen and become warm, aswell as having a deep sense of peace and warmth come over me after pouring my heart out in prayer. However, I don't know what happened these last couple of days that I started to doubt and wonder if all that I had felt or believe was just in my head. I always feel it´s the same thing which gets me. It's either seeing other Christians speak of sin and how we must overcome our imperfections, and feel that I'm not good enough to follow Jesus. Or, as you said in the video, that if I decide to follow him, then I have to stop all sin in my life, knowing full well there are sins which I´ll never overcome or want to overcome. It's such a dreadful feeling of anxiety and unrest. But I feel like your video helped me come back to that core belief Christ.
I just want to point out in this part of your comment "Or, as you said in the video, that if I decide to follow him, then I have to stop all sin in my life, knowing full well there are sins which I´ll never overcome or want to overcome." that we are not called to be perfect. Jesus did that for us. Jesus knows we will struggle with sin the rest of our lives. We are not saved by becoming perfect by our own actions, but are saved by faith in Christ alone. FROM that faith, we learn to walk and live more like Jesus. I hope that can help the burden you feel of trying to stop all sin.
It is not a burden to not sin... @dontneverquit The bible said that Jesus came to take away all of our sin and that if you sin then you don't know Jesus. Also in Hebres 7:19 it again says that Jesus makes us perfect. Not to mention all the other scriptures saying that we do not sin. Jesus told that woman to go and sin no more, you think Jesus would tell us to do something that he has not made available for us to do?
1 John 1:8, 10 KJV [8] If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. The reason we have no sin is because Jesus has become sin FOR us and we have become the righteousness of God in HIM. (2 Corinthians 5:21) We have no sin because Jesus Christ took our sin in himself. Jesus Christ was judged as a sinner in our place, but the grave could not hold him because his blood is INNOCENT. We are perfected FOREVER by the offering of His blood. Hebrews 10:14 KJV [14] For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
I’m glad you posted this bro, you’ve got yourself a new subscriber! It’s so funny to me seeing the way the enemy taunts us with “you’ll never be good enough,” only for Jesus to flip that on its head and say “you can’t be good enough, but I am.”
Thank you for this beautiful gospel presentation. Praise God for blessing you with courage and words. Well done young man. Saving this to share with my boys. I pray God uses this to draw his people to himself. What a precious gift Jesus is.
First time viewing/hearing you. You are awesome. God has blessed you tremendously! I was born again in 1984 while in collage; what a ride!!!! God is soooooo good!!!!
Love this man. Thank you for taking the time to be real and share your story. You’re absolutely right, you’re not the only one who has struggled with this. I still do…and God is still working on me to help me fully understand as I try and follow Christ.

Jaden. Thank you young man . Im. 73 . . All my years . Have been. Hellish . Trying to live up to pleasing. God . & even now. I beat up my srlf mentally. Day and night . No. Inner. Rest . Its seems a constant. Battle . Bless you. And your honest out reach ❤
I've met a lot of people like you Jaden. I do not struggle with this issue, but struggle with other issues of my own. Each person carries their own version of Cross and that is what God taught us when He became flesh and bones. I also struggle with negative thoughts but my soul tells me that God loves me so much that I cannot even fathom it. At least that is what Saint John Chrysostom says. Don't lose hope man, we are made stronger through tribulations. I believe that we become good through our effort to be close to Him, but mostly through our God's grace through Jesus Christ.
John 3:16,18 ESV "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [18] Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. Ephesians 2:8-10 ESV For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. ❤✝️
Praise God🙌🏻 every day I want to recognize my great need for Him and His saving grace. There is so much that He still wants to do in us and through us after we are saved !
God said you are my greatest creation, Jesus said I don't want Heaven without you. Even if you don't feel perfect in his eyes you definitely are in his heart. The greatest gift you can give him is the one thing he truly desires a relationship with him. I love you all God bless.
The problem is that none believers don't understand why sin is sin ... They think it's fear based and rebuke the "natural" nature of humans... And it makes it so sad.
I blame preachers who were wrongly taught the gospel, and preach falsehoods to give the faith a bad name. Fire and brimstone preachers did such a disservice, and turned many people away.
I watched this, so you don't have to. You did a great job. I loved when you walked to the camera, stuck out your hand, and said, "Come with me." Meeting us where we're at. Beautiful message. You didn't tell about coming back to the church (not necessarily the same one, but a church) but I trust that's part of your story, too.
Ex-Muslim converted to Christianity years ago, and when I became Christian I realized how to pray and talk to God as a dear friend and with all my flows and sins God is my father and he still loves me and my sins are forgiven by the grace of Jesus Christ who died for my sins so I can live. ❤
You feel so insecure about your Christian belief that feel the need to go to those who are firm in their belief (Muslims) and portray yourself as an “ex-Muslim” to cast doubt in them. You do this because you’re envious of Muslims and you hate that they feel content with their religion. You’re a pathetic waste of Iife.
Respect bro👍
Amen and praise Jesus!
@@hamodalbatal464 if I you asked you to recite Sura Al Fatiha, I guarantee you wouldn’t be able to. Which means if you actually were Muslim and not an insecure christian, it might have been for a day or two tops.
I’m still learning how to talk to god vs just praying…these videos and comments help on my journey.

When I tell u these past few days my stomach has been hurting from laughter I mean it lol. God’ll make things happen. 🙏🏾
That is more of a position of power in the face of struggle than giving up, which leads to nowhere and gives no benefit. But, a question arises, why so much hardship and strife in human life? Aren't we ourselves at fault for it?

Totally cool little brother! You summed what it took me 65 years to understand. Wrong teaching, perfectionism, self effort... What a mess... My whole life is different now-living from the love of God and what He has done FOR me through Jesus. Thanks for sharing!
Amen! God Bless you!!! ✝️☦🙏
61 and right there with you. This has been an amazing awakening!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😛
Amen bro the wrong doctrine will ruin your life
When I tried to do it myself I was always anxious sad scared and thought I needed to be the best. When I let go of my pride and asked for a relationship and my father teach me that changed everything the more I spend time with the father the more I want to spend with him and the more he repairs and changes me. I Love The Father The Son and the Holy beloved Companion and is a most precious gift.
I need this today. I'm a 60 year old Pastor still struggling with the awful doctrine I was raised in....
I was born into false Doctrine. But I was Saved from it. Jesus is the answer. Praying for you. 🙏🙏
Believe in Yeshua (the Messiahs real name) John 5:43 acts 4:12 He came in His Fathers name Yehovah and Yeshua means salvation. Then we gotta keep Gods commandments 1st John 5:2-4 1st John 2:2-6 John 14:15-21 which includes the Saturday sabbath dawn to dawn the 4th commandment and all the rest. Then we don’t eat unclean animals Leviticus 11 Isaiah 66 and 65. Not breaking Gods commandments includes not doing pagan holidays like Christmas Easter Halloween etc. and again it’s all because if we truly believe in Yeshua and His words we will do what He says, and if we don’t we are liars
@@Dub4Yahbut levitical laws are the old covenant right?
@ Isaiah 66:15-17 hasn’t happened yet. Neither has the new covenant per Jeremiah 31:31-35 Hebrews 8:6-13 and Ezekiel 37.. Israel and Judah have not become one again, and we still have to teach the word of God which won’t happen in the new covenant
@@slowwrx1049Do not listen to that false worker you replied to!!! We are in the new covenant and are not bound to old testament laws. We rest in Jesus as our Sabbath. Do not listen to false workers.
I had this realization earlier this year. Ended up being led to read Eph 2:8-9 one day when I asked God, “why do you even like me if it’s not about what I do” and after I came to the revelation that he loves me simply bc I exist was like…overwhelming. And even the “good works” that I do from here on out, are works that He has already prepared for me to walk in…they’re not even mine. And it’s all for His glory, not for me to look good.
Realizing this this year literally saved me from walking away from God bc I was so close to giving up completely - He’s always near and willing to draw you to Himself if you too are willing. Thanks for the video
Interesting ! Glad that you came to this realization, I’m not there yet…

This is beautiful.
@@blackananaas I'll pray for you. I became a Christian 7 years ago and I struggle with faith sometimes too. But if I didn't know God, I don't know where I would be right now. Thanks to Him, I can love myself and know that I am forgiven. I hope you will experience His love too.
Yeshua doesn’t expect us to be perfect or to do good works, but promises we will be inspired to do so- He DOES; however, command us to repent and confess our sins to one another - of which the Protestant churches goers (at least in my experience) rarely do.
WOW! So much to say about this. I needed it in a way I can't explain here. For someone lived a horrendous life, who didn't get saved until I was 54, I have always struggled with EARNING His love. For 10 years, I have failed, fumbled, stumbled and grumbled...because I CAN'T! I can't meet Your standard of perfection, Lord! To which He says 'That's right! You can't! But I can, and I did! So follow Me.' Thank you for giving this old guy a new perspective on a truth I already knew...but didn't take to heart.
You have salvation through God’s GRACE, there’s no earning or working for it, it’s freely given, through Christ’s substitutionary death on the cross for all of our personal sins. All you do is let God know you believe that. It’s just that simple.
@zuzuspetals9281 Thank you for your response. I am in total agreement 🤝 with all you said. In fact, I could have done a better job explaining this was the whole point, all my striving was fruitless because He paid it all! As He said on the cross "It is finished."
I died in 2021 two times. The first time I went to hell. I was not Christian but after my confusion of where I was at and what was happening to me I cried out from my heart for Jesus to save me. He pulled me out of there instantly. I then died again on the operating table and I didn't go back to that horrible place. I went someplace else and he spoke to me and I felt his love that is undescribable in words. There is so much more to my story but not enough room to write it out here. I can tell you I am Christian now and I understand what you have gone through. I have to remind myself of my experience to this point, I was not a Christian or even saved but when I cried out for him he came and saved me. I accepted his free gift and have put my faith in him knowing that I won't go back to that horrible place when it truly is my time to go. Don't be fooled if he came to save me as a non believe he will do the same for those that already have faith in him. It truly is beautiful. I try everyday to walk the righteous path and fall short everyday in my thoughts or by my mouth. I don't sin outwardly but I still sin and I don't live in it. I ask for forgiveness many times daily knowing that he will save me because of his grace as he did when I died. I to am a perfectionist and find myself falling into those thoughts but then remind myself of the fallen world we live in and only Jesus was perfect and we will never come near to that. So I fall off the horse daily and get right back up on it in repentance. Sorry for the book but he saved me for a reason and I believe it is to tell my story. There is allot more but again not enough space here. Thank you and God Bless you all
Anywhere we can read the full story?
You are not alone brother, Jesus did something similar to me 6 months ago. I'm only young and human (18y male) so I don't understand it all but with the gift that he gave me (being reborn specifically, but much more) it would be so so so wrong of me to not choose Him since He chose us. At the end of the day we have free will and the fact that we are all here means 99% of people here are already on the right path. By the glory of God, through Him, we are saved. Faith is just another gift we receive when we choose Him with our chaotically yet beautiful structured free will.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😛
@@RikkoshayeI have not completely written it out as I told a very short version when I was baptized last year and have only told it in it's entirety verbally. I do need to write it down for sure.
@@the4ngelcruz it was a gift for sure because before my death I was not living for Jesus and only for myself. Since then he has changed my life dramatically for the better and I live for him now. I look back on my life and can't believe I lived the way I did. My life would have been so much better if I had accepted Jesus early in my life. It truly was a gift and a second chance!
Thank you Jaden I'm 70 years old and needed to hear this.
I needed this SO MUCH. It appeared on my feed , I watched and cried and cried. I'm 66, you are so very young but you get it more than I ever have. Thank you xx
I struggle with this. A LOT.
Because I am HYPER aware of my failures, my sins, my iniquities...
And, I doubt my salvation because of it.
And, that doubt eats me up... often... on the daily.
The doubt that I could only get less than perfection and the thought of being told to go away on judgement day robs me of joy.
And, I don't know how to fix it. Even when I am met with renewed mercies everyday.
I pray God puts me in the path of other Christians who understand this message, who also show love and grace with great understanding of scriptures.
I have sinned so tearable , even after I received a miracle . I had my ideal home & always thought I didn't deserve it . I believe I got a spanking , lost the home . But I'll take it , because god loved me enough to straighten my path . Be grateful & be aware of temptations. It's the evil one giving you guilt , you've already been forgiven . As soon as you have the though of guilt , think NO Satan leave me in Jesus name . Repeat if necessary .
God made Jesus to be sin (who knew no sin), so that we (who knew no righteousness) could be made the righteousness of God (that 100 perfect score) IN CHRIST (2 Cor 5:21). In Christ (by trusting in Christ's death burial and resurrection to justify us), we are perfect before God with Christ's perfection. This is the grace (can not earn it or deserve it) of God, and it is a free gift for anyone who believes. Romans 5:17-18. So just trust it. I personally know that Christ is my only Hope for salvation. He is enough. I am the righteousness that God requires, because I am IN CHRIST by faith.
Hey I just finished reading this book called cross centered life by cj Mahaney, that book I think would be such a wonderful thing for you to delve into. It it a pretty easy and short read as well. And as you come to scriptural references in it, look those up and take them to heart.
Remember these:
Romans 4:5: But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Jonah 3:10: And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
In essence, when you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, your faith is thereafter justified, and you require no other works to attain salvation. As you can see from the verses in Jonah, turning from evil ways is referred to as a work, so indeed, no amount of repenting of sins will earn you salvation, for it cannot be earned to begin with. (This does not mean you should not turn from sin, but whatever sins you do commit, it does not mean you are not saved; as it is written in Romans 8:1, There is therefore now no condemnation to those that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.)
If you understand that Jesus Christ was resurrected by God from the dead, and you receive the free gift of his grace (which is not of your own works, lest you should boast), you shall be saved, and you can be assured that you are sealed unto the day of redemption, and no man, not even yourself, can take you out of the Father's hand.
Matthew 18:11: For the Son of Man is come to save that which was lost.
May God's peace and grace be with you in Jesus' name.
Because of Jesus, we have the Holy Spirit. And he will sanctify us over time. ❤
That's the Gospel! Very clear message... and I pray that this video reaches many
You're awesome. A lot of people need to hear this message ❤❤
This understanding is what has been helping me get through a really tough time. My wife passed away in her sleep 18 days ago, and her and I coming together and getting married was an answered prayer and a true miracle. I too, spent a lot of time yelling at God -- why didn't He talk to me? Well, He still never has audibly talked to me, but after my prayer being answered I told Him I would never deny what He'd done for me. When I found my wife had passed, all I could do was thank God over and over again. I'm so grateful for that, and for what Jesus did for all of us on that cross.
Bless you, young man! I hope this message touches many people. Older people are relating because we were taught to earn God's love through works. How sad! The church is being sifted...thank you Jesus!!
I recently saw a video where a man was having fun being playful while him and his wife worked on some thing in the garage and he stepped out for a minute to get some thing and came back and she had passed away just like that. He has four kids And I can’t imagine what they are going through. But he has faith and you could tell that he knew he would see her again and that God’s timing is perfect. I’ll keep you in my prayers, trust God and his timing. My wife left me 2 years ago and I had no hope but to trust in God and he has made me stronger than I’ve ever been.
So sorry for your loss! You're in my thoughts and prayers ❤
Thank you brother. I needed this! God bless you brother
Good message. As a perfectionist myself, I needed to hear this message again. Thank you. God bless and Merry Christmas
Some people go out to see the man in fine clothing that lives in a castle. Not the stone the builders rejected. God finds value in what isn't good enough for the perfect builders
That's what sets christianity apart from other religions. Jesus loved us and died for us BEFORE we even decided to follow Him. We can't do anything to make God love us more neither to make Him love us less. Took me so much time to fully understand it. God still loves us the same. We don't do things for God to earn His love and blessings but BECAUSE of His love for us, out of grateful heart. When you sin don't hide from God but run to Him. Another thing that I wish I understood sooner, could save me from so much pain.
Goodness is required TO A DEGREE, "Follow MY commandments, --IF you LOVE me..." suggests the Lord might say we do NOT love the Lord to not do so just as, "I knew you not" he replied to the man whom said, "but Lord, I proclaimed you.. ", THO' Christ's "yoke is EASY" as ALL LAW can be fulfilled observing the TOP TWO (love-based) commandments that "ALL laws hang upon", THO' the 2nd is not easily learned per Exodus 20 "bowing to graven images" the Lord indirectly ties to "loving thy neighbors" because should a many bow inappropriately, it likely empowers a "Beast" that enslaves us all, which is not very nice for our neighbors.
Nicely said! God loved us while we were sinners!❤😊 praise God from whom all blessings flow!🎉
This was beautiful brother, thank you. Christ loves all reading this message. ❤
OMGOSH I’m crying. I needed this Jaden. What you said was spot on. I recommitted my life to him just now thanks to you and your words.

Brother, you said it beautifully. God loves us. He will never leave us.
I tried to like this twice. God bless you brother.
God bless u Jaden Patterson. Great message one everyone needs to listen too ❤️
Jaden, mate, this video was awesome. It spoke at a level that im not sure how to describe. You spoke about some difficult concepts in such a clear, concise and understandable way, this is a masterpiece frankly. As a fairly recent person who has come to Christ, thank you. God bless. 🙏 ✝️
Thank you for posting this, Jayden!!! I will be thinking of you and praying for you ❤️ All praise to our Savior and King, Yeshua.
I've been going through more than words can describe since 2020. My life has flipped upside down and my faith and mental health have all been tested and pushed past their limits... Everyday is a battle and yet there's never any noise or pain, it's really a silent battle I've numbed to the point of I don't remember. Thank you for this testimony and giving to people something they needed/might need. God Bless you ✝️❤️
Thank you, my brother in Christ, for making this video. I have been having some doubts and questioning that was a mix of spiritual warfare and personal lack of faith. The Lord used you to help me get back on the path He wants me to be on. God Bless 🙏🏼
Second time listener. I listened to this message twice. That’s how good it was. You have the gift of sharing the gospel in a plain and simple way. Our backgrounds are very different. Our future is the same. I never went to church until I was in my late 20s. At the age of 27 at my very lowest point I called out with a very simple prayer. God/Jesus if you’re real I need you and I need you now. I found out that very day he’s real. I could sense that something was different. I couldn’t put it in the words at the time. I can now. I became a new creation in Christ. Fortunately, I came into this with no baggage. I have never doubted my salvation for even a minute. I am paid for. I belong to Christ. He owns me. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is our assurance of salvation.
This came at a time when I thought I didn't need it. I put up the video just to have something in the background until I heard you really speak and now, though not comforted, am relieved. I genuinely NEEDED this.
I have been working a project, funny enough it's also on the topic of film. It has nothing to do with my career in aviation, but it has everything to do with myself. It's personal to me. I want to send the message of "It Takes a Village to Help a Village." But this giant-undertaking has been sending me to a spiral lately and I just don't feel like I'll ever be good enough to get the message across on the film. But this video, and others like it is like pulling a cookie out of a jar, it helps. So much. So-so much. Your story with showing your short-film and the fact that your self-worth doesn't come from your works is a calling for me. It might take me a while, but I hope to really dig into my mind and heart and soul that my works won't get me to Heaven, it's Jesus. And He is more than enough.
So, thank you and God bless.
Thank you so much for sharing. I truly appreciate your kind words and I’m grateful it could be of some help.

Hello Jaden,
I listened before sharing and gladly sharing your work!!!!
Here is what I wrote to the person who shared it with me:
I just got done listening to the little video. Passed it on with notes to my youngest daughter who does still resist.. but i believe (or pray) she will be a firm believer in the end. She is surrounded by friends who would benefit from this young speaker with very good wisdom. There are themes in there that are familiar to many of our new generation preparing for the work force.... whatever job they are preparing for, to be strong and courageous, sure of their steps. This videotographer will surely help make a difference count and I can't wait to see some of his work in film. He puts the point across well and in simple language easy for ANYONE to understand and he is not afraid though admittingly uncomfortable or awkward, he does not allow those words to stop him and his true course of action 💓💞
Jaden,
Keep up the good work you do❤ we all need the inspiration of your hearts' desires and to in turn inspire you as well with love❤❤❤
I can totally feel that Iam not the only one of our heavenly family going from lukewarm to hot in the last months.
Seals.
My hope for your wellbeing rests with the holy father, I love you brother!
FOR JESUS!
Be cold and refreshing, or hot.
The point is to not be just the same as those around you drinking the same lukewarm water (context for that specific city), wearing and having faith in same gold/money, or boasting of things we have (eye salve).
Thank you for posting this video. You clearly stated what it took me many more decades to learn. I applaud you for sharing and I wish I could have known this when I was your age. Organized religion has misguided me for too long. I was never taught to pray in the name of Jesus, for help and forgiveness. My life and my place in it has totally changed for the better. I have a peace, love and contentment that I never knew could be possible here on Earth and it’s all because of Jesus, not church, priests, ministers.
If I may add one other perspective...in my younger days, when I struggled, I too thought it was because God wasn’t pleased with me. My perspective has totally changed now. My fears and my doubts weren’t because of God, but because of the evil one planting seeds of fear, doubt, shame and guilt etc. This is why I am spiritually connected to Jesus everyday to keep the evil one at bay. Hallelujah!
Imagine living in a world where Jaden Patterson has a significantly better understanding of the gospel than Jordan Peterson.
But in all seriousness fantastic video my friend you hit the nail right on the head! We must never forget the importance of Grace in our journey in the faith. In the words of Johnathan Edward’s “we contribute nothing to our salvation but the sin that made it necessary” Goodness comes from our salvation not to secure it.
I needed to be reminded of this again today. Thank you for this reminder - as a fellow perfectionist, I feel your pain of only seeing your flaws. Thank God that it's not about me and my flaws but about Jesus and His scars!
Peace and blessings brother I’m glad you got to know our Father that close we never deserved what He did on the cross but who He is is what I trust and His roots are in Love and Perfect Grace all we need is Faith keep it coming the world needs powerful testimony
Well Jaden, you have made a perfect short film ! I struggled with the same thing as I am a perfectionist myself. What you have done here will bring someone to Christ. I know this because if I was not a Born Again Believer and follower of Christ this message would have taken me in to Him. I love you Brother. I will see you in Heaven real soon !
thank you thank you thank you for creating and posting this🌷
Thank you I needed that this morning. I am going to save the video to remind me when I get caught up in all the frustration of life.
I tried for so long to DO instead of just BE because HE did it all already. It is FINISHED! Great encouragement brother. I needed to hear this. ☝️💞
Yes. Be. And don't worry.
Well Done! So thankful you took time to put your thoughts together for us on video. Praise Jesus! So so thankful for this♥️
So many views🎉🎊
So many likes🎊🎉
I will be 65 next month, and I've went through this since I was a child and it got worse after I got saved because God is perfect and I never thought I could measure up or be good enough. You are a very wise young man, and I thank you for sharing your story. God bless you 🙏
Thank you so much for so clearly presenting the message of the GOOD NEWS...TGE GOSPEL! I just shared this in a few different ways with prayer tgat God will open hearts to BELIEVE AND RECEIVE... AND FOLLOW JESUS ❤
That was powerful. Your delivery and understanding were exactly what I needed to hear. I am grateful you shared this analogy of what Jesus is supposed to represent and do.

Thank you for this video. Really, life is not easy when you are a perfectionist and trying to follow God at the same time. I focus on my flaws too much, and other people's flaws... I fall short of God's glory every single day but still I try, I know God is still working in my life. It sucks sometimes, knowing that I am not good enough and never will be, but being perfect is not what matters. I have to keep reminding myself that nobody is good enough in His eyes and humble myself. It's not always easy, but with God, anything is possible. Thank you again for the reminder. Stay safe, God bless you and your family
I’m 2:15 into this video. I’m a 46 year old woman. I’m a Christian, and unfortunately, also a lifelong perfectionist. I have never related to anyone so completely in such a short amount of time, I am dumbfounded… you just summed up the last 25 years of my life with your description of your feelings toward God here. I’ve come to accept a lot more of God’s love as I’ve aged, but I’m just blown away right now that you articulated this so perfectly… bravo!! Ok, now going to finish the video 😅
I feel like my sons could relate to this 100%
This is the best explanation I have heard. Thank you this is a beautiful way to explain how so many of us was raised by ( how bad we are) and told that everyday blessings to you.
Jayden this is brilliant. I love that opening line. It is perfect for a T-shirt: ‘ Christianity is not about being a good person’ … I find T-shorts are very effective especially in the gym … now on to hearing the rest of your video
Let your light AND good deeds shine before men.
We are saved by grace through faith in his merciful atonement... and then we follow and reveal his presence that has changed us into people who carry his presence and do good.. we do all things to bring him glory.
He wants to shape us into his character. An ongoing sanctification until he changes us completely through death.
Thankfully, we are new creations through accepting his Holy Spirit.
We have been made perfect through baptism in his death and resurrection.
Be perfect and be holy... through the cross.
Wow thank you for this. This means more to me than you know.💯✝️
Thanks for the video Jaden. I think Psalm 139 is quite profound in this regard. That's why it's is my favorite.
Needed to hear this today, Jaden. Thank you!
I appreciate the simplicity with which you so genuinely delivered the gospel. Well done brother.
This video moved me more than anything I have heard about Jesus or watched about Christian testimonies, and I have watched many. All I can say is thank you for posting this and God bless you abundantly. You made it all make sense. I am so grateful. 🙏✝️
Brother you don’t know how spot on this is man, especially being a growing artist/filmmaker and learning more about the craft. It brings a lot of overthinking and thoughts of perfection. You summarized it all in a great way to see the Gospel from a different perspective. Thank you my brother. Continue to let God work thru you with these simple/yet fruitful videos.
Well done sir! I believe we are on the brink of another great awakening because of people like you and countless others bringing the gospel to millions online! God open up the internet to countries like Iran, China and North Korea so they can hear this message!
I was on a downward spiral of artistic perfection for a while. Super focused on being the best in the class, making the best art I could possibly make, constantly working on some sort of creative project. Then God took away from me the most important relationship of my life and it sucks to be honest. But if I had never met that person, spent 3 years with them, and saw the love of a Christian I never would have come back to faith. I was stuck in this limbo for so long about my faith and if I had continued down that path I would have ended up miserable. Honestly I am quite blessed that the relationship I was in ended with love and compassion, that I have finally stopped focusing on being the best in whatever craft I'm interested, and having come back to Jesus. I'm not where I want to be (not even close), but I think I'm where I need to be. I find a lot of comfort in that.
Wow. I truly appreciate you sharing. I can almost completely relate to this and I'm thankful for God working in both of our lives.
@@dontneverquit Thank you for the video, it has really helped me. We're both stupid young (I'm 22) but at least for me it feels like I've been around for forever. The guilt and shame from failure eats at me, but it's part of the human experience. Can't be perfect no matter how hard we try. As Kendrick said "If God got us then we gon be alright"
Your testimony and explanation of the Gospel really blessed me man, thank you so much for making this brother.
I just wanna say, thank you for deciding to post this.
What a beautiful mess this was thank you so much. The amount of love Jesus has for you must be such a grand thing, I only saw an almost imperceptible amount in comparison, and it was vastly heartwarming my friend. For forty years I've struggled and the simple way you spelled it out just feels like instant love no struggle at all. So grateful for your walk with Jesus and Merry Christmas!
I'm 56 and it took me all this time to finally understand this message. I never thought I was worthy and no matter how much money I made I still thought I was unworthy of real love and loyalty. The worst part is that people knowingly or unknowingly capitalize on this to the max. Jesus saves.
Beautifully said! Thank you brother.
Yeah, God doesn't need money.
He owns everything.
That's why we share money to help others.
Very happy you posted this, God wanted you to.. God did give us a handbook thankfully... Bible - Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth 🌎
Pray for all those that do not know ✝️
Such an awesome testimony, Bro. This video showed up randomly in my feed, so first video of yours I've seen. I pray that God uses you and your channel to reach the lost. As Christians, we sometimes need to be reminded just how Holy God is and that without Christ, we are nothing. Our true worth can only be found in Him. Thank you for standing strong in your faith, young man.
Beautiful. I had similar struggles in my view of God and myself/my worth. By His grace and through His spirit my view was transformed and my weakness became something to boast in that His power would be shown in me. Still a wrestle at times for me as my humanity and redeemed self clash and my fleshly perfectionism tries to win me over, but God is faithful and He is my perfection as He sanctifies me. Thank you for sharing
Such a good word young man! This is the truth and can set people free!
I am God. I will send you to the underworld until the time I destroy both heaven and hell.
Thank you for reminding us of this Truth and Good News by sharing your own testimony.
It's the story of the prodigal son, the evil brother and the good brother were both living from performance, but the Father lived from blood / family - You are perfect right now Hebrews 10:14
Perfect. I am going to show this to my children because I think you may be able to help them understand where I am missing the mark. Thank you for being brave and posting this. Keep being brave in your faith little brother. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good for you young fellow.. Kindness your way..Lochness Scottish Highlands..
Apparently my ancestors were lowlanders. I want to visit before I go.
😆 Dude! You are such a great vessel of the LORD! Oh my, what a wholesome message packed with TRUTH! I was so caught off guard there after nine minutes or so 😆 Sincere goodness 😁
Bro. Thank you so much por posting this video. I really needed to hear this.
I recently started praying and going to church because I started to see that maybe Christianity is meant to be about unconditional Love and acceptance. I had a couple of experiences where I felt my heart loosen and become warm, aswell as having a deep sense of peace and warmth come over me after pouring my heart out in prayer. However, I don't know what happened these last couple of days that I started to doubt and wonder if all that I had felt or believe was just in my head. I always feel it´s the same thing which gets me. It's either seeing other Christians speak of sin and how we must overcome our imperfections, and feel that I'm not good enough to follow Jesus. Or, as you said in the video, that if I decide to follow him, then I have to stop all sin in my life, knowing full well there are sins which I´ll never overcome or want to overcome. It's such a dreadful feeling of anxiety and unrest. But I feel like your video helped me come back to that core belief Christ.
I would say, to start with, just focus on the parts that really resonate within your heart.....
@@VivBeyer1111 Thank you!
I just want to point out in this part of your comment "Or, as you said in the video, that if I decide to follow him, then I have to stop all sin in my life, knowing full well there are sins which I´ll never overcome or want to overcome." that we are not called to be perfect. Jesus did that for us. Jesus knows we will struggle with sin the rest of our lives. We are not saved by becoming perfect by our own actions, but are saved by faith in Christ alone. FROM that faith, we learn to walk and live more like Jesus. I hope that can help the burden you feel of trying to stop all sin.
It is not a burden to not sin... @dontneverquit The bible said that Jesus came to take away all of our sin and that if you sin then you don't know Jesus. Also in Hebres 7:19 it again says that Jesus makes us perfect. Not to mention all the other scriptures saying that we do not sin. Jesus told that woman to go and sin no more, you think Jesus would tell us to do something that he has not made available for us to do?
1 John 1:8, 10 KJV
[8] If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
[10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
The reason we have no sin is because Jesus has become sin FOR us and we have become the righteousness of God in HIM. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
We have no sin because Jesus Christ took our sin in himself. Jesus Christ was judged as a sinner in our place, but the grave could not hold him because his blood is INNOCENT.
We are perfected FOREVER by the offering of His blood.
Hebrews 10:14 KJV
[14] For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
I’m glad you posted this bro, you’ve got yourself a new subscriber! It’s so funny to me seeing the way the enemy taunts us with “you’ll never be good enough,” only for Jesus to flip that on its head and say “you can’t be good enough, but I am.”
i love this! so relatable, God is with you keep going brother
Thank you for this beautiful gospel presentation. Praise God for blessing you with courage and words. Well done young man. Saving this to share with my boys. I pray God uses this to draw his people to himself. What a precious gift Jesus is.
that "wrapped in the weeds" dance actually hit tho 🤣
Love this! Sharing this with both my 16yr old son and my lovely hubby 🫶🏼
Blessed be his name, Lord Jesus Christ
First time viewing/hearing you. You are awesome. God has blessed you tremendously! I was born again in 1984 while in collage; what a ride!!!! God is soooooo good!!!!
May God bless you.
You were a light to someone's life!
This man is pure darkness reeking filth from the gates of hell
I have blessed you with life and my presence.
Ty I really needed this today , GOD BLESS , please keep preaching ! This was very helpful
Great message brother very simple and relatable
Love this man. Thank you for taking the time to be real and share your story. You’re absolutely right, you’re not the only one who has struggled with this. I still do…and God is still working on me to help me fully understand as I try and follow Christ.
Praise God! This is so good! More of the same brother 🙌
I am God.
Incredible video! You are spot on. Very intelligent and you stand on sound doctrine. You also have a great sense of humor too 😊🙏🏻
Great video. Thanks sooooooo much for posting this. Didn’t realize I needed this. Thanks again ✌️
You are a bad friend.
Great message and love your delivery. God bless you, Jaden! 😊
i had the same thing. god freed me.
god loves because he simply wants to. he chooses to love by himself.
GOD IS LOVE.
God is worthy of the time to give him a capital G' for God. The idols of the nations are 'gods'.

I've met a lot of people like you Jaden. I do not struggle with this issue, but struggle with other issues of my own. Each person carries their own version of Cross and that is what God taught us when He became flesh and bones. I also struggle with negative thoughts but my soul tells me that God loves me so much that I cannot even fathom it. At least that is what Saint John Chrysostom says. Don't lose hope man, we are made stronger through tribulations.
I believe that we become good through our effort to be close to Him, but mostly through our God's grace through Jesus Christ.
John 3:16,18 ESV
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [18] Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
Ephesians 2:8-10 ESV
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Praise God🙌🏻 every day I want to recognize my great need for Him and His saving grace. There is so much that He still wants to do in us and through us after we are saved !
Amen brother
Incredible testimony/gospel message, brother. Loved every min.
God said you are my greatest creation, Jesus said I don't want Heaven without you. Even if you don't feel perfect in his eyes you definitely are in his heart. The greatest gift you can give him is the one thing he truly desires a relationship with him. I love you all God bless.
Perfection is the bare minimum in Christ
Your video made perfect sense brother. Thanks for posting.
The problem is that none believers don't understand why sin is sin ... They think it's fear based and rebuke the "natural" nature of humans... And it makes it so sad.
I blame preachers who were wrongly taught the gospel, and preach falsehoods to give the faith a bad name. Fire and brimstone preachers did such a disservice, and turned many people away.
Thank you Jaden. I needed to hear this today. Bless you.
Keep making christian videos we love it over here😫💕😊
But you don’t love God.
@JesusChrist-rn6hl why do u say so❤️?
@ngwanaJeso I know what dwells within the heart of all humankind.
@JesusChrist-rn6hl but you're just as human as I am , how come u know😌❤️
@ngwanaJeso I’m not human at all. 🤟🏻👽
I watched this, so you don't have to. You did a great job. I loved when you walked to the camera, stuck out your hand, and said, "Come with me." Meeting us where we're at. Beautiful message.
You didn't tell about coming back to the church (not necessarily the same one, but a church) but I trust that's part of your story, too.
