I have a cousin just like this...he asked his dad to give him his amount of share so he can leave...my uncle was so furious about what he just said...my cousin is never happy in their house but he got everything he needed and wanted...but he is never satisfied..
Unfortunately that's the generation we live in now. I grew up right before computers, internet, cell phones and social media so I got to experience the world before it all AND the transition and I think everyone that was here before it all would agree that the tech was misused to deceive and lie. If you can believe it, there was a time not long ago when lying was considered so shameful that the consequences for being caught labeled and ostracized you. Now it's Glorious to many as they lie in wait for anyone to drop their guard long enough to take from them. Worse yet, they feel justified in doing it because they deserved it for whatever reason. It is really sad. The good news is those of us that have eyes to see know it is blatantly obvious that everything Jesus said to watch for is happening all around us. We're living in the most Awesome time in human history. God bless you friend.
Notice the Eternal Word manifest in Flesh, spoke One parable in three phases to the religious leaders of Israel , who He said, sat in Moses seat, and He told his His hearers to listen to their teaching on the Law, so this parable contains immense truth, like all of the teaching of Him who is eternal Truth, so to select one part of it and base the Christian Faith on it is a sure way to distort the eternal Truth' The context is crucial, the religious leaders criticized the Lord Jesus for having fellowship with people who were considered crooks on the payroll of the occupying power of Rome The Lord Jesus is explaining to them that He considers them the lost sheep of the House of Israel that He sent His Apostle to preach to in Matthew chapter 10, and these three phases describe three aspects of God's activity in His attempts to return the lost to the safety and security of the fold, or the silver necklace or the Father's Home
🙏🙏🙏Thank God for the cross. Thank God for my soon to marriage. I will always honor my marriage and family. I am greatful my chains are gone. Thank God I will honor my marriage and work hard for my family. Thank God I have broken the chains of the world 🗺. Thank God for the kingdom.
In every church sermon for this topic preach us only half, which mean the arrogant of younger brother who was lost and found but sometimes i think the main sermon will be on elder brother who stay home with father and become so jealousy when his brother return home and father's gave him everything, So i want to know what is or what will be parable for the jealous brother😢😢

It's not about A man at all.... God is Consciousness/Infinity AS All Things, and this story is about man in general understanding this truth. Jesus knew this, as did all of those we call masters, like Buddha, etc. They knew everything is Consciousness/God Being Awareness AS ALL THINGS. They knew this truth and lived it. This story is about turning our backs on this truth and living in the world through the Dualistic Human Intellect, ultimately realizing that it's all an illusion and finite! I AM INFINITY BEING AWARENESS AS ME..... YOU ARE INFINITY BEING AWARENESS AS YOU..... BE THIS AWARENESS.... Jesus said GIVE NO THOUGHT FOR YOUR LIFE....telling you right there that matter is an Illusion of Awareness of Consciousness. Be Silent and Know You Are The Finished Kingdom Right Here Right Now!!!
There's no evidence I've ever heard for that, the "parable" about Lazarus and the rich man is the only one speculated to be about real persons - in part because no other parable uses names.

Classic John! First 15 minutes of bashing Israelites from 2000 years ago, while having no point of reference or personal experiences to rely on. I’ve listened to hundreds of wonderful sermons by John…only this time I REALLY just needed to hear about Like 15 and that’s it. Not the typical ongoing bashing of Jews. I’ll pray for you John.
Exactly! Doesn’t John know that saying ANYTHING negative about Jews or Zionism is verboten on every college campus and in Congress? Only one opinion allowed in “free” postmodern Amerika!
Presumably this gentleman ?has read the words of Christ Himself at Matthew 23, where we are told that ALL religious titles are forbidden. If so, then either he is incapable of interpreting God's word correctly, or he doesn't think it applies to him. Then let me set him straight: the ONLY title we are allowed is 'brother' (or sister) and it's not capitalised unless it's at the beginning of a sentence. The use of any other title is divisive, disobedient, and rooted in pride - I didn't say it, Jesus did - so don't listen to anyone who does it.
The world is full of folks like you: a religiosity that revolves around straining at gnats and obsessions, missing the essence of the message entirely.
@@jlandles I agree - there are lots of things in the eternal word of God that don’t really matter - I’m not sure why He bothered to put them in there really. Anyway, Jesus was obviously just engaging in idle chit-chat when He gave that commandment to us - he doesn’t really expect us to take it seriously, so what’s all the fuss about a bit of pride and taking God’s glory? Nobody’s perfect. Dear Lord - no wonder the demons are having a field day with disobedient Christians. And the church, who have the resources to bring in the full number of the Gentiles in any generation, are making absolutely zero impact, and the only people getting saved are the remnant God keeps for Himself anyway, without our help. And just as a PS, we’re also talking about a dispensationalist here. All believers are commanded to heal the sick, cast out demons, and speak in new tongues, so without the Holy Spirit, this is a purely intellectual exercise, and devoid of power to heal, save, deliver, restore, or redeem. So I’ve got news for you - God doesn’t take excuses - come judgement day about 3% of the church will make it, and there won’t be a lot of so-called ‘pastors’ (sic) among them! God bless.
How convenient that it stopped before the counter-Calvinist part, the fact that the son made a personal free-will choice to repent without the father first coming & forcibly changing his will. Curious how MacArthur ends up eisegeting that part in the next sermon…conveniently not posted here….
@@tonyrussell5058 Keeping in mind the the father in this parable represents God, in verse 24 he says, "For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found." And they began to celebrate, which is what happens in Heaven at a lost person's salvation. The younger son was not just backslid, he was "dead" in sin, separated from the father, and then he repented, believed, and was saved, brought to life.
WHAT ABOUT THE PHARACEICAL SON. THAT APPLIES TO YOU JOHN.SPECIALLY CONCERNING CHARISMATICS. EVANGELIST ROGER MANSOUR CHARISMATIC CHRISTIAN MISSIONARY TO HAITI
I am very thankful on this Father’s Day that my own father was nothing like Christian God. The Christian God, this so-called father, demands utter worship from his “children“ or he will torture them for all of eternity. That is not a father. That is a deranged, egotistical maniac. Even if one of my children turned away from me hated my guts, I would still want the best for them, but I would not send them to an eternity of torture in a place that I made. I can’t believe I believed that for so many years.
The whole point of the Cross is the redemption of souls, and the illustration in the parable is that no one can save their own soul - which is why we try to go our own way and embrace autonomy from our Creator, ....for what? A few years of enjoying what we can make of ourselves, out of relationship with the source of life? Eventually we find ourselves in a far place, devoid of resources and in desperate need of grace. If you're not there yet it's hard to see. Worshiping our Creator means we come more into line with reality, but it can be a hard and unwelcome pill to swallow,..... until we're desperate.
@@singwithpowerinfo5815 redemption from not understanding the nature of our existence (for starters). Redemption from not understanding the real nature of God's character, and redemption from the negative power involved in projecting our own conclusions onto it (Him).
..... add to that, redemption (deliverance) from the fear of death. Healing of the soul is included in the broad term 'redemption'. Personally speaking I became well aware of my soul's need of healing, which is why I now know the whole plan of redemption is utter truth. I also understand that there are many who disagree with this viewpoint, but that cannot mean it isn't true, just that they disbelieve it is true for reasons they prefer.
@@sistersusie8569 Yes, what you describe is not truly in line with traditional Christianity. You would probably be accused of being a little “new-agey” by a lot of Christian. They can do them, you can do you! 👍

Had access to the scriptures!
What are you saying? No need for teachers of God's Word?
Depends upon what is being
Preached or written in books
Scripture is inspired by the
Holy Spirit
Pastors and teachers can
Interpret their way as much
Controversy is apparent
In doctrinal issues
Anyway I was saved before
I read or heard any doctrine
The elect are drawn
However to grow as newborn
Babes we need the sincere
Milk of the word
The Holy Spirit will guide
And teach the elect
Directing them to sound
