  • Matthew 11 : 20-24. Responsibility is the ability to give a response. christians have the supernatural ability to respond to God. We must take Him seriously. the more we know about God, the more we are empowered by the knowledge to give the correct response, which is obedience. our obedience is our responsibility. in the words of uncle ben, with great power comes great responsibility. Christians are held at a higher standard than unbelievers because Christians have been given much knowledge, and with that knowledge much is required. in this episode, alex will be preaching about christian responsibility and how to respond to God.

    Man, the part about not numbing out and allowing yourself to feel really hit home. A little over a week ago, I threw away all my weed and stuff that goes with it. I was tired of numbing out. Rather numb out, I’m turning to Jesus.
    A lot of that has been influenced by this podcast. Amen 🙏🏻

    Thank you Guys for the Episode and the work you do! My first take away is the admitting of not being fine. Whenever I was not feeling fine I did not really talk to others about it because I did not want to bother them with my problems. But when God finally brought me to a place of not hiding it anymore, I talked to someone about it and I was free and could also talk to God more freely. People who do not know God act as if you’re weak when you admit that you need Jesus but I’m glad to say that I need Jesus and that without him I’m not fine

    when I started attending my church youth group to make more friends my age, I soon started to feel alone because no one in my group or in the service my age really talked to me because everyone already had their clicks. But when Alex was talking about the church is where you're gonna get hurt the most I felt like God was speaking to me that; Is your feelings worth not getting to know me in fellowship? Is your feelings worth not getting to know my other children, your brothers and sisters? God really went straight to the point with this one. I haven't been there all summer because of my feelings when I should be more focused on my faith and how I can get to know God with His children. To be quite honest I have just been selfish this summer and only thinking about myself and this month of August I've been trying to get out of it and this message encouraged me more to do that. So thank you, Alex and Lokalani for being a vessel for God to speak through. God bless you and your family.

    This is SOOOOO relatable, I thank God for you, the work you do for God and how you helped me better comprehend and apply God's teachings to be more like Jesus.
    Repentance takes one to the floor in tears, the whole body cries inside out....takes us to our knees before the cross of Jesus who gave His life so we may live, and represent Him wherever God takes us so we lead others to the cross. God's grace is wonderful and the time to repent is now!
    I was reflecting on why and what are the reasons we are so used to say "i'm fine"... i noticed with people, many are not fine and they know it but don't know how to say how they are, don't know who to tell and it is stressful when you also wonder if you'd be understood and be shown the gentleness that Jesus showed. ... Others, have gotten so used to numbing themselves to say im fine, that they end believing it and living a life full of suffering, in denial...
    Here is, Jesus... He knows all our nakedness, nothing can be hidden from Him... yet He loved us to the point of giving His life on our behalf, Him who did no sin, was made sin in God's eyes because He carried our sins... We cannot save ourselves on our own strength, that is why we need Jesus, in Him alone we find forgiveness and become a new creation!
    I loved what you said about the calm waters on the surface... yet underneath that water was moving.... How wonderful our God is, even in nature He designed and created to teach us and show us how much we matter to Him, how valuable we are to Him... aaaaahhh it always makes me so emotional.... God bless you, I love you and we together love God. Let's go out and be the Church!! 🤗

      Hey there! Thanks for the love and support, it means a lot to me. I'm glad my video resonated with you and helped you dive deeper into God's teachings. It's incredible how God's love and grace can transform our lives. Keep watching and sharing the love, my friend!

    You guys love the Lord so much and always puts the truth over everything. I have come to realise recently that trusting my flesh is just going to lead to problems in my life. Trusting in the Lord and only him will lead to a better life spiritual, physically and mentally. The big problem Christians have is how we spend to our time. Are we living 50% for the Lord and 50% for the devil. No!!! How can we live partime for God and the devil. We need to live full time for God. Thank you Amen Podcast. God will continue to use for mighty things❤️🙏🏾

BUT God is Good! He definitely did a 360 on that for me …. His love truely showed me how true love is suppose to be not the love of man ….

    The Lord is taking me through a season of very deep and uncomfortable healing. I’ve accumulated very religious, legalistic, and black and white perfectionism tendencies that blind me from my true need of the blood. I know I need Christ, He is my life and “To live is Christ”. I’m 20 years old and growing up I’ve lived a life where I work for approval or work to be enough, whether it was in competitive baseball or family. I gave my life to Christ December of last year but I’ve brought something’s into my relationship with Him that shouldn’t be there. At the end of the day, my “I’m fine” is a lie and it’s PRIDE, and it’s something I have to continually keep repentance with because it’s so heavy in my life. I’ve been watching the podcast for a year now almost and its taught me so much, I literally thought about moving to Kauai just so I could be apart of the house church and have both Alex and Lokelani pour into me😂. But this episode, taught me many things and spoke right into my current season of healing, that I need to live in such a way that the only plan in life is to trust the cross, and that the blood of Christ is all my life depends on. To repent of this “I’m fine” prideful way and turn to God and fall into His unfailing love and grace. Thank you Alex and Lokelani for just saying “Yes” to the Lord. That “Yes” has blessed me, those around me, and those in this world more than you can imagine.

    This is so good. I had to re examine my faith and found I was telling myself "I'm fine" for almost a year now through covering myself in my possessions and holding on to a "situationship". I was being a fake as people in Caperanaum. As of recently I had to let go of that situationship and right now it's so painful yet spiritual I feel free. Though my flesh is like miserable because I had to let her go, my spirit feels more free because now I repented through the act of responding to God! Thank you guys for this message God bless!

    God is being so great with me showing his love by trying to correct me for every wrong doing and decisions i've been making in the past few weeks. I can't even say more because i feel so ashamed for not corresponding in the same way... I always do stuff i shouldn't that it makes me feel fearful of what can happen with me if i stay in this wrong lane. I've been overthinking my whole life and God said that this is a shameful sin that the devil put people through because it goes hand and hand with witchcraft (us trying to predict the future) and I need to let go off this. Pray for me and for everyone that suffer from overthinking so we can feel free in Gods Hand and do what He want us to do and if it means waiting, that we have the ability to wait for it with a patiently obedience. Thanks guys!

    I love this. I grew up very religious ( a very strict Christian sect) and I was broken down from a child until an adult - but even though I got so close to God and fell in love with God there- I left there and left God for about 16 years( I left for good at 20) I’m just redeveloping my relationship with God and because it’s still incredibly painful to even think about going back to fellowship I’ve been worshiping and growing closer to God again privately (😂well minus commenting on yt videos) . I never even considered that happened because everyone at the church (for the religion I was in they actually don’t call it church it’s a meeting/hall) is also broken and trying to grow with God daily too… everyone I knew growing up and most of my family I cast out because of the pain and trauma and degradation and maybe that isn’t where I should go back to but def can move forward with forgiving them and me a lot easier when I consider they’re imperfect too ❤❤❤Amen

    This was so heavy yet uplifting. I’m usually one of the first to exclaim, “I’m not fine” when conversing with others. I’m not ashamed of the gospel, I’m not ashamed that I am a sinner saved by His grace. Although I’m not fine, I know Emmanuel. I feel the pain of others so deeply it is unexplainable. And I know that it is for the purpose of Christ Jesus.

    Saving repentance is realizing that you are a sinner deserving of God's just punishment in Hell and turn (repent) from whatever you trusted in before, if indeed you trusted in anything; to trusting in the person and finished work of Christ alone for salvation.

    • @nene1951
      @nene1951 9 місяців тому

      He is talking about accepting Christ as our Saviour and therefore having the responsibility to live a righteous life in obedience to Him... having the responsibility to repent when we fall and to not just be "proud" as Christians but to also bear this responsibilty that we have to do what He tells us
