I tell people about Dr. Baucham and how his teachings hold nothing back. They often become offended but I told them God never cared about your feelings, Paul never cared about your feelings. When God tells us to do something or live a certain way it's not based on how u feel!! It jus has to be done!!
That doesnt mean that God doesn't care about our feelings. That means that we can't use our feelings as an excuse or reason to not do what God commands us to do. We can say, "it doesn't matter what our feelings are" and that not mean that God doesn't care about our feelings. Because He very much does care about every single thing about us.
@@laurenbatson5918 I stand corrected. He does care about our feelings just not to to point that he will allow how I feel to interfere with his instructions/ commands!
Thank you, thank you! To whoever has taken the time to upload these sermons! My wife and I are going to see him in Ft Lauderdale in a few weeks. I’m so excited to meet Voddie!
@@texsis2112 It was great, yes, he is very personable. Totally worth the trip! Thanks for asking. When I first got there, he was sitting by himself in the back and he was on his phone. I went up to him and said, "I don't mean to interrupt you, but can you sign my Bible for me?" He said, "you don't mean to interrupt but you just did." We both started laughing, very down to earth guy.
ANOTHER GREAT TEACHING we need more teachings like this to search out hearts, and bring conviction that we can .separate the Truth from the lie..the Word of God is Alive and sharper than any two-edged Sword. God bless you VOODIE
The best sermon I have ever heard in my 50 years in Christ Jesus. Honestly I have forwarded to all I have on my phone! God bless Voddie and his whole family
This is probably one of the most difficult concepts to communicate. Let those who have the ears to hear, hear. Praise God for placing dr Baucham in my path and making clear the word of God and how to properly exegete. Reading through the optics of the providence and sovereignty of God is the only way to maintain intellectual integrity. Amen, somebody
Wow! Thank you God and Lord Jesus Christ for speaking through such men of God as pastor Voddie, Alistair Begg, Paul Washer, John MaCarthur++ for I used to not understand that its all God and I was just being rebellious and not willing to submit to God.
Am really trying to understand the truth of the word of God and tye teaching of being set free fron sin.I been caught uo into drugs , Immorality and homosexuality. But am no longer participating or practicing any of the above but still learning how to break free from Pornography and masturbation
Philippians2:13”…for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to HIS good purpose.” And after awhile….1 Peter 1:22 “Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the TRUTH so that you have sincere love for your brothers/sisters, love one another deeply from the heart. For you have been born-again, not of perishable seed, but imperishable, through the living and enduring WORD of God.”
Read also James 1:13-15. “When one is tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone.; but each one is tempted, when, by his own evil desire, he is DRAGGED AWAY and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.” Romans 6:23 “The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is Eternal Life.”
And like Paul, when you feel like you are a “goner” again, remember: 2 Corinthians 1:8-11, 4:7-18. Jesus said to her, “I AM the resurrection and the life. He who believes (presently) in me will live, even though he dies; whoever lives and believes in me will never die. DO YOU BELIEVE THIS??” (From John 11:25-26)
I'm in South Africa, I love his preaching. I'm white and after the apartheid years black people need to hear black preachers. So many are done in by preachers taking their money like Bushiri from Malawi.some guy in Nigeria, many of our country lost their lives when his building fell down.
I disagree with notion that we are not responsible in our reception, rejection and consideration of the gospel. We must believe, repent, deny ourselves and follow CHRIST. To believe is not a work. I can't work, be good enough or righteous enough to earn something that has been already done and accomplished on my behalf! I believe in the message that is preached. GODS goodness draws me, drags me and I have the divine right of choice to accept, reject or hear more. Love demands a choice. Salvation isn't force on anyone of us. The faith comes by hearing and hearing of the word of GOD! I can remember when GOD began to draw me back to HIMSELF and I made a decision to place my trust in the gospel for HIS salvation!
@@ctucker7002 Totally agree with you! Belief is not meritorial work. That's where Calvinist missed it at. They believe to believe in CHRIST is a work that merits salvation and it's not. Faith comes by hearing and hearing of the word of GOD! To believe is to place confidence and trust in what is heard or to whom it was spoken by! The HOLY SPIRIT is convicting us of sin so we can truly see our need for GOD! In order to make decision to obey the gospel. GOD is sovereign even in our power to choose because HE sets the parameters. There are 3 reactions to the gospel. Acceptation, rejection and consideration and all 3 are found in the book of Acts.
@@ctucker7002 peace and blessings! That's the only reason I comment on certain things. To dialogue and so we all can have clarification about our positions in light of what the bible actually teaches! GOD is sovereign and man is responsible for his response to the gospel!
So, if we believe we saved ourselves through a decision for Christ, then we will believe we sanctify ourselves through a decision to live for Christ. If our justification was a work, then our sanctification will also be a work. For the rest of our lives we'll "white-knuckle" Christianity, and live defeated, exhausted, and empty. And, one day, maybe 20 or 30 years later, we'll dump the hard grind which is this "Christianity", and say "it doesn't work". The product of the "free will gospel" are atheists waiting to happen.
How do I say the following so I am clearly understood? Pastor Voddie, your teachings are wonderful. Your insight into and understanding of scripture is beautiful. Your teachings have answered Many questions, and validated ALOT that has come into my own mind. (And I deduce that from what words I am able to make out.) I HAVE to pause it (or the vast majority of them) at least every 5 minutes or so because I am LITERALLY exhausted from Listening. My head is buzzing. I feel like I ran a 167 mile marathon in 5 minutes JUST listening! You talk so fast I can't keep up with the words. I am out of breath just LISTENING. I feel like I need some kind of tranquilizer or something. My heart is pounding and I'm literally weak! What IS that??? I don't know if it's your anxiety to get the information to us or what but it cannot be from the Holy Spirit - the too fast talking coupled with yelling. Mostly it's too fast talking. And then for all of the yelling and too fast talking, you become so quiet, to a whisper that I can barely make out what you're saying during those sentences. What IS that? It cannot be from the Holy Spirit. Do you ever listen to the audios? I mean, Truly. If you don't, you really should as a person hearing you for the first time. Or the umpteenth time. Is it me? Am I missing something? I really want to know. I am Trying to listen and excuse the above and suffer through listening. Then I become frustrated and almost angry because I Want to listen but I can't. SOMEthing jus' ain't right.
Please to anyone who is led by the spirit of God, i have this burning desire to study God's word. Please can anyone help connect me with Dr Voddie hopefully if i tell him my situation he can enroll me into his University. GOD BLESS YOU.
Just for my clarification, if we have Victory over sin in Christ, what was the thorn in the flesh that Paul continued to have ? Thanks in advance for any answer
This and all Voddie's sermons should eventually be translated in all languages for of the world. Also athletes and those who get media coverage should utter only words or show a card into the camera directing the audience to this link. Amen.
Sorry the word practice IS NOT IN the books of John anywhere You are reading from a Bible printed after the eighty, early 90,s . If you don't believe we are not to sin ,read John 5 :14,
I like what your saying but you misrepresent every other view other then Calvinism it’s not that we justify ourselves it’s that threw Gods grace we wake up to our wickedness God calls us and draws us in to himself and we accept the free gift of God not of our selves but of God he saved us not we saved us it’s 100% God but since we have free will a characteristic that God himself gave us God allows us to choose weather or not we invite him in or accept God is sovereign he chooses to give us free will and we need to seek after him we need to accept him call on our hearts

Glad to do it and glad they are helpful
So, how was it? Is he as awesome in person?

Thanks for listening Keturah
Faith in Christ and what He did at the Cross period.
Amen. And raised to walk in a newness of life
Absolutely appreciate this teacher. God is so good to us. Don’t thank Voddie for this words, thank God for Voddie!
Praise God for His word

Thank you for this message.
Bless you! 🙏🏽
The victory over sin is guaranteed by the work of Christ and applied to Believers! 😀🙌
The (1) NEW RIGHTEOUS DESIRE, AND (2) THE NEW POWER, IN CHRIST!!! You are a “new creation ‘in Christ Jesus.’” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
Amazing sermon!! Christians really need to grasp all the doctrinal truths in Romans. I thank God for teachers/pastors like Voddie!!✝️🥰
Thank you

Hi, I am from Zambia and wondering if Pastor Voddie is maybe still in Zambia?
Yes, he is in Zambia
