My mom gets up every day at 3 am to talk to Jesus. I know that's it her prayers that have kept me going. My grandma taught my mom to talk to Jesus. A few weeks ago my grandma was diagnosed with cancer, last night my grandma was talking to Jesus and He told her He had healed her. All the pain is gone. We woke up at 3 am to talk to Jesus and thank Him. Please join me in thanking Him and making my grandma's miracle whole.
❤❤❤❤
Beautiful testimony. Praise the Lord Jesus!
Praise the Lord🥰
Praise God
Praise Him !!
Good morning, brothers and sisters in the Lord. Hope each and everyone has a great day today in the Lord and through this sermon we can reflect on what it will be like when we get to heaven. Continue to stay close to God and get more closer to him, keep your sins covered by the blood and work hard to win souls for the glory of God. I love each and everyone of you and pray that your prayers will soon be answered as we stay true to him. ❤

Praise The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit, For Saving Us, as We Are Filty Rags 🙏
And the WORD became flesh and dwelt among us, In JESUS dwells ALL the fullness of the GOD HEAD.
In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was GOD, and the WORD BECAME FLESH and dwelt among us, JESUS is GOD, If you have seen ME You have seen My FATHER. WHO DO MEN SAY THAT I'AM?
Study, study study and PRAY for REVELATION
I love Tony Evans but @4:07 - 4:50 he says inherit and enter in are different but it's the same according to the Bible. So all those who pursue evil will not inherit the kingdom of God. Plain and simple. That's why we must pursue God
Yeah I feel like this will trip allot of people and I have questioned its accuracy I hope he expounds upon this or the church holds him accountable for his words because I'm sure there is no gnashing of teeth in heaven
I was shocked and disappointed to hear Dr. Evans preach that you can live without regard to God’s laws, but receive “credit “ from a “mercy account” to override judgment. There is so much more to say, but this sermon has caused me to lose credibility in his ministry. I
Am saddened by this. Please expound on this, Dr. Evans. I hope I have misunderstood what you are preaching!
Keep your faith strong and just know we must live in righteousness and holyness the Son will let us know in Heaven how things will be.
If our entrance into heaven is based on our life conduct, then the gift of eternal life is no longer a gift but a reward.
@@BRISKIIFRESH James is very clear. Faith without works is dead. If you say you have faith but have no works as evidence of the faith you claim, you're lying. You don't have faith and aren't entering heaven. It has nothing to do with gift or reward.
And please let me be fruitful and graceful for all things that you do for me I love you LORD
Thank you, Pastor Evans.
✨️"Heaven is free, Rewards COST."
Thank you Pastor Evans!
I now understand fully the reason that God may say, "Well done!"
I will remain a full time servant; not a part-time Saint!✨️
Dr. Tony Evans is truly one of my favorite ministers of the gospel, but I like a few others in this comment section could not accept this as truth 4:46.
My scriptural support:
Hebrews 10:26-27 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.
Please Guide me in your will . In JESUS name I pray Amen and Amen
AMEN 🙏
Stay IN The Word 📖 Of GOD - Jesus Christ ❣️ Son Of GOD Saviour 💘 7:42
Thank you for continuing to stand with me for my breakthrough. God surely is at work behind the scenes and I am longing to see it in the flesh
This convicted me.
Brother Tony, you are a true man of God. Hallelujah
There is God to glorify, a reward to receive and a grand entrance to make... amen!
Show mercy. Amen🙏🏾
I am asking The Lord for his will be done in my life and praise his holy name
Weeping and nashing of teeth is done in heaven now....
Yeah I'm confused by what he mentioned that and I'm not sure it's accurate...
Exactly and its not biblical the way he's using it. I don't know what he's talking about. Matthew 8:12 references this phrase but its talking about something completely different. I would suggest that you read the whole chapter to get full understanding.
@@bbblahoo7 No its not accurate at all. Revelations 21:4 says, "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." What he said completely goes against what the word says.
Suffer loss, but retain salvation
1 Corinthians 3:10-15
[10] According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. [11] For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. [12] Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw-[13] each one’s work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. [14] If the work that anyone has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. [15] If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.
@@amyparker4538 [15] If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.
This is saying that if the work is burned up then he will suffer the loss of reward. The previous verse explains that.
Good information , meant to be heard , this day. !5/6/2024

Thank you Jesus for Pastor Evans and thank you for posting this today for us.
Glory to Almighty God. !
In Dr. Tony Evans' sermon, particularly at the 13:45 mark, he presents an interpretation of "outer darkness" related to the parable of the talents that significantly diverges from traditional biblical understandings. I disagree with his view that this refers to lesser rewards within the Kingdom of God. Instead, I believe "outer darkness" is associated with judgment and exclusion from the Kingdom, symbolizing profound regret and eternal suffering, not a diminished heavenly reward.
Dr. Evans also discusses 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 around the 3:45 mark, suggesting that persistent sinful behavior affects the quality of a believer’s experience in heaven rather than their salvation. This interpretation could lead some to underestimate the gravity of unrepentant sin. Traditionally, the phrase "will not inherit the kingdom of God" indicates that those living in unrepentant sin demonstrate their lack of true regeneration and salvation, not just a risk of lesser rewards. This traditional view is supported by the broader context of Scripture, which emphasizes the transformative effect of genuine faith, evidenced by a changed life (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Moreover, the "servant" in the parable aligns more closely with those described in Hebrews 6:4-8-individuals who have been exposed to the truths of the gospel yet fall away, indicating they were never truly regenerated. Their hearts are like the thorny ground mentioned in the Parable of the Sower; they initially receive the gospel but are ultimately overwhelmed by worldly cares, leading to spiritual death (Matthew 13:22). This is further supported by 1 John 2:19, which states that their eventual departure from the faith reveals they were never genuinely part of it.
These interpretations underscore the severity of God’s judgment on unbelief and nominal faith, stressing the eternal consequences for those who fail to develop a genuine, transformative relationship with Christ. This understanding of the gospel serves as both a promise of hope for the truly faithful and a sober warning for the unrepentant.
Another awesome word that has opened my eyes and my heart. I have more work to do for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ here on earth and it will certainly benefit me in the kingdom of heaven. Thank you, Dr Evans, for your obedience & sacrifice now in this time, so we are better prepared to meet God. May He bless you abundantly, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Because we hurt the heart of our Lord and Savior
Praise God for everything he has done
I've enjoyed listening to Dr Tony Evans, even though I disagree on some issues. This lesson has me spiritually disturbed, and not because it touched my heart and soul. I am a student of the Bible, not a scholar like Dr Evans, but one does not need to be to understand the Bible. This lesson, to any reader of the Bible is just false. To think God would allow some to enter Heaven to applause and others bood? How hurtful! Or be excluded from a heavenly party, or have to work as a janitor? Based on what? Not all have the same talents and abilities, unless you know precisely what you were supposed to do, above not committing sin, how could God and why would He make you feel like a failure. That's not my understanding of Heaven. More like some Christian colleges where you don't fit in. This could hurt someone's faith, not feeling they'll be good enough , good enough to enter but not accepted.
Preach Dr. Evans
Give honor to God and to pastor Tony Evans Amen 🎉
Hallelujah Jesus!!!
Against all odds God will change my situation. Lord please I need a miracle today please come and rescue me. As a single mother, raising not one but two children on the spectrum I am overwhelmed and I’m constantly struggling to pay bills. Struggling to buy groceries, struggling to do it all. But I won’t give up. I have the faith to believe and receive a blessing from you today Lord. Amen. 🙏🏾
When the Lord talks about those who won't inherit the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:8) , that means you WON'T be let in period. So for him to say at 4:38-4:46 "Don't misunderstand, he didn't say you won't enter it he said you won't inherit it." What in the world is he talking about. That is completely wrong. I want y'all to understand that if you (a Christian) are living a life that God rejects you will not be permitted into Heaven. Just because you are saved does not mean you are bound for Heaven. God looks at your heart and your life. Suffice to say, if you live a life that is pleasing to God and your heart is right with him through relationship, you will see Heaven. There will be a lot of Christians who go to Hell and be surprised that they are there. Matthew 7:22, "Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." So I don't know if he meant to say that or got his words mixed up but the way he said it was wrong. If he meant what he said then what is being spoken is wrong. I have been watching this preacher for a while, and for the most part I truly enjoy his true teachings of the word of God. But sometimes he says things like this for example that gives me pause. It's the wording for me.
Blessings sister in Christ...I was searching the comments to see if anyone heard what I heard...you are spot on...I listen to Tony Evans from time to time..not inherit the Kingdom means will not be let in period...so I Iike you will like to think he just mix up his words..or he is dead wrong..
@@kevinwilkes1653 Exactly my brother and thank you. A lot of folks just be hearing a clapping but not really listening, and paying attention to what is being said from some preachers. This is why false teaching is so easy for most to listen to because either they're not true followers of Jesus, don't really understand the word, or don't know the word for themselves relying on someone else to tell them. He's a great preacher but he has to be truly careful of how he is wording things.
Yes I agree EVEN THOUGH we will never be 100% perfect until we are in His presence and may stumble our lifestyle is different than what we were before being saved.. when Tony said that those practicing those things will still enter heaven really tripped me up. If I didn't read myself I would b led to believe that I can live how I want and still go to heaven smh.. I pray anyone who heard this find the truth
There will be a lot of Christians who go to Hell and be surprised that they are there. Matthew 7:22, "Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."
This is talking about the pharisees of the time, but in today's world, the religious people who believe that good works and following the law of Moses saves you. It's not talking about Christians that God casts out. These are people that do not believe in Jesus' finished work on the cross, that it imputed righteousness to them, they are believing in their own works to attain righteousness and favor with God. Works are a fruit of our salvation, not a way to salvation.
So how will all be judged if not allowed in heaven? If you believe EVERYONE is going to be judged..then they have to enter heaven in order to be.
Look at it this way...lots of people go to court. Some go home and some go to jail. But they all start off at the same place.
That the difference between "enter" and "inherit".
Does that make sense?
PTL,had to watch this again
A much needed message…..thank you!!
Father God thank u
Wow. This was one of his most powerful messages. I’ve learned so much. ❤
What a powerful and sound message. Thank you, Dr. Evans. 🙏🏽
Our entrance in Heaven is based on our life in Christ Jesus! We get to choose which way we will go, Heaven or Hell.
We know where we stand before The Lord God, and how we walk with Him.
We have to give an account to Him now on earth and then, when we leave here!☝🏾
1 Corinthians 6:8 📖
Thank You Lord God for giving us freedom to choose. You, oh God are Merciful to us!❤
1 John 2:28 - Useful and fruitful 📖👏🏾

I fear God! Of course, not in a scary way. I just don't want to disappoint him in any way! I know we are Humans and will make mistakes, but it still bothers me that I could disappoint him. I really do love my Lord and Savior!!!!
How I Would Answer Or Add To What you Commented Is To Constantly GROW In The Lord. I seek to Graduate my Maturity as well as in Knowledge Understanding & Wisdom.
I've known people who said wise things, had good understanding & very knowledgeable but would act & say foolish things. So I've realized that they were immature believers as I have been in the past. I lack understanding how my jokes hurt people & I laughed all by myself pushing Good people away from me.
Graduate my Maturity is What's Up...
Stay In PRAYER 🙏 27:49
Bless You and all of Yours so much abundantly more for the blessing of God's truth to ALL of us. Amen and HALLELuYAH ✨️✌️🎶
❤ Thank you so much Tony, and we should always be grateful and mindful of our Lord Jesus Christ and Him giving His life for us
Glory be to God! 🙏🏽 I'm so grateful for this message ‼️🫶🏽🎯
I'm thankful for this sermon.
The Bride is at the party. The wedding party. The Bride is born again believers that wore the engagement ring of salvation and didn't lose the wedding proposal. (Didn't lose their salvation)
Thank you for this message ❤
Straight up respect and honor for God Almighty
I so appreciate the people that God has anointed that have the courage to put that anointing into action.
I think that, this is one of the best way to express love to others. Helping them understand the love of God

extension of that love.

Psalm 103:11-22 God knows we are dust that would fade away like a flower as soon heat arise so praise Him for His undescribable love
God want us to live with feeling but He doesn't want us to let our control us AMEN
I'm really question what u said about those enot inheriting the kingdom of God but still being able to enter heaven for eternity. I'm not sure that is biblically correct I mean everyone else teaches that not inheriting the kingdom of God for living those lifestyles would mean that they were truly saved. Yes we will never b perfect and fall seven times get up seven times etc but our lifestyles are leaving those thing behind and less frequent. So I'm confused because the way you word it makes it seem like someone could live like that, claim Jesus as savior, never change and still b saved from Hell.. I'm not being a hater I been listening to you for YEARS and been saved for more than 20 years but I'm stumbling over this sermon. Please help and pray that my faith b strengthened brothers and sisters in Jesus name amen.
The same thoughts crossed my mind when he said it
So I could be wrong and I am only paraphrasing what I've been tol, but I think its a way of God holding us accountable for the way we lived, because God's mercy and Grace and the ultimate sacrifice we are saved, but it also says in the Bible we will have our judgment Day in front of God and have to answer it for what we've done, and one of my favorite verses in the Bible "He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him" and we are God's children, and there's different types of angels so maybe our lifestyle effects what type of Angel we become, like maybe we'll be a guardian angel, messenger angel, or maybe we'll be one of the angels on dish duty. Honestly there's times I don't feel like I'm doing enough to get into heaven, so I'm praying this is true and of course I'm going to try to live everyday as God intended but if I do fall short I would gladly live in the bottom tier of heaven, I will do the most menial task if I get to be in God's Glory! 🙏
I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt weird at the same point. First thing came to mind is read that chapter and prayer for clarity.
I’m still very strong believing that those who are listed didn’t surrender their lives. They’re not fully living for Christ. I believe the Bible is black and white, and humans just complicate it at times. In this case, in these verses, I believe that you can’t actively and passionately live those lives and also say you’re Christian because that’ll be hypocrisy. Yes there are different levels of rewards in heaven, but I see it as the thief on the cross giving his life to Jesus hanging right next to him. His reward isn’t going to be great like Jesus’ is or his disciples who didn’t turn their backs on him or like John or Paul, yet he still made it to heaven. Yes his sinful life lead him to his death but death wasn’t final for him.
@@realhiphopfan91 just know there is nothing you can do to get into heaven EXCEPT take the gift of salvation from Christ Jesus himself. U may fall seven times but get back up seven times. The lifestyle referred to here is a willing turning away I believe. We receive certain gifts in heaven for the things we do and we might for a second regret times we didn't use God's talents for the kingdom
I am so glad that Dr. Evans preached this message, even though there are some controversial thoughts about it. It is time for us as Christians to begin to look at our status. To make sure that we know what God's requirements are for us now and what we can expect to come. Even though I believe my salvation is locked in based on Romans 10:9, what remains is my rewards that are based on my works or representation of God while here on earth. God has a beautiful plan in place, and I am so honored to be a part of it regardless of the different interpretations. HAPPY TO BE A CHILD OF THE KING and want it to be seen in my actions and not just my words. I love you guys! Let continue to pray and do our individual best to represent the body of our Savior. (Psalms 139, my life chapter).aesmith.
AMEN 🙏
We better hear what Holy Spirit is saying, because THIS IS IT! FINAL CALL!!!! Lord, grant your children grace, mercy & a boldness for You like never before! In Jesus’ name.
Amen, 🙏.
On the day of judgement-God will review your character,conduct and contribution.He will examine your declarations,deeds and desires (motivations)
