Am I really a Christian? A challenge for all Christians.

- Опубліковано 18 тра 2024
- For those of us so called Christians, this is a challenge. I recently came across a very short paragraph at the bottom of a page that challenged my faith to it's core and made me ask, am I really a good Christian, or just some kind of fake?

“we’re all sick in some way.”
huh, that’s oddly comforting.
And in the name of Jesus Christ those sickness go away
Yeah
we're all sinners. that's a fundamental idea in what we believe in. but don't let that make you turn away from repentance.

thankfully God pulled me together with a woman that changed my heart, and she doesn't know it people isn't just worldly there truly holly in the inside if they wanted to
For me this wasn’t just a punch in the gut, it was two punches in the gut, a shovel hook to the face, a round house kick to the face, three jabs to the face and four leg kicks. God bless you brother thanks for this ❤✝️
I don’t think you are the only one. Many of us feel like this 🙏

I'm going to the same struggles with you. It is really a hard blow of reality, but it would be worth it if you take the challenge now and practice it (forreveerr). I'm practicing how to be patience and not to be angry. It is actually my first time knowing that making fun of people (EX: calling your friends "bogus" for doing something stupid) is sorta a crime.
I am exhausted battling my sinful nature. I struggle but I will persevere. Thank you Jesus!
I feel you Jennifer. It's a battle for me too and I'm tired. But keep on persevering, praying and trusting in God!
Amen sister 🙏🏽
Everyone, please pray for me. I have an important exam in two months. Praise the Lord.
Sin is a fallacy and Christianity is a doctrine of self hate. I hope you embrace your true nature soon my fellow homosapien.
I'm late but hold onto Philippians 4:13 my friend! You've got this!
I am a christian; a bad one. I am an awful human being who's only respite is the comfort and peace of God's grace. I am wholly unworthy of you or your mercy, Lord.
The fact you understand this makes you better than most. Pray and god will be there for you.
@@ThatGuy420-nd2tm I would say "The fact you understand it gives you opportunity to change to the better."
@@DanielSilva-gc4xz fair point, im still learning myself.
@@ThatGuy420-nd2tm me too. My life started changing like 4 days ago. Before that I lived like the world wants us to.
@DanielSilva-gc4xz thats good, have faith and stay strong brother.
It’s not easy being a Christian in the world today-especially with our thoughts and emotions.
Yes, the true battle really is spiritual and not of flesh.
This world is bred to extinguish Christians.
but why🤔
what's the essence of everything?
why? why? why?
Wdym by essence?
This world is doomed and have always been the fact that we are God's childs in a doomed world means that we will be tempted and we'll face many problems and struggles that's part of the game unfortunately but it shows to God our true potential and God tests us through the world
this is really a punch in the gut… God bless you brother.
Remember tho we are saved only through faith. Genuine faith will produce good works.
@@sage5409 Amen Brother, Praise God for All he does✝️❤🙌
Me too
same. I used to think I was an okay Christian, but I then I received a 0%
«You just brutally murdered me, god bless you»
As a new Christian, this helped me a lot to set my bearings on what is most important. Especially the part on who I should serve. It really did click for me that I should love Jesus over my family. Because, how could I love my family without loving Christ? What basis do I have for loving them if I didn't love Christ? That made sense for me.
ua-cam.com/video/9M3-eybl1gQ/v-deo.htmlsi=1gJEmIUmA2wtOQdO
yooo congrats on joining the christian club and i completely agree with you on your statement of how you must place god over your family, because he made the family anyway and he (although it may be sad/happy depending on the way you look at it) loves you waay more
@@peanutant11 To go to heaven, you must trust in Jesus alone for your salvation.

@@JIGAK1 you get born again when you first believe in Jesus Christ.
As a practicing Catholic, this hit me as well. Specifically the insults and serving false idols. I don't have crazy road rage, but I admit that I give in to calling people jerks on the road who may not be intending harm or may be ignorant to their surroundings. It's definitly an area of my life that I need to grow from.
And I also struggle with addiction. been struggling for many years in fact. But with God's help I realized I have a problem and have been in therapy and a support group for a few of those years and counting. I can only say, if it weren't for God I'd be in a much worse point. But thanks to him I've slowly grown in confidence and work everyday to rectify my pain with Gods love. He is "the Way, the Truth, and the Life." (John 14:6)
Congratulations brother 🎉. May you be an example for those who don't yet know
Amen. Well said 🙏
Praying for you brother
saints dont fit in the definition of false idols
I’m not a biblical scholar and I’m not even an old Christian, this is just my interpretation of the words I have seen. I tell you for two reasons. If I am correct it will bring you peace, if I am wrong that knowledge will further my own journey.
The Bible doesn’t use the words sin and evil interchangeably. The terms are very closely related, but they are not the same. The reason is because sin is fault, failure, straying from the path placed before us. We are human, by our nature we are imperfect and therefore that is why sin is in our nature. Because failure is within our nature. However just because it is a part of our nature, does not mean we are tied to it. It does not mean we are bested, it does not mean we are beholden to it and it does not mean we love it.
God doesn’t expect us to never sin, he expects us to never surrender to our lesser impulses. He expects us to stand within his spearwall and to fight against the darkness that exists within us all. In this sense it doesn’t matter if you are a master warrior, trained for decades or a new initiate barely able to properly direct his blade. The fact that you have chosen to stand amongst the battle line in defiance of the dark and the fact that you’re as committed as possible to become the best spearman you can be in his name is enough.
God didn’t expell Adam and Eve from the garden out of spite or out of anger. He expelled them so in time humanity could learn of the wages of darkness, the reality of evil and to understand in totality the righteousness of the lord on high. So it was with them, so it was with you.
We’re in a fight whose outcome is determined. God as well as all those who believe in him and his law will win this long war. After which we shall live in creation as it was always meant to be. So stand up and rejoin the line son, the lord is not done with you yet.
For those that are hurting and feeling bad when watching this, remember that the pain you feel means that there's hope.
Just get back up, and walk forward with God.
Only lose when you admit defeat and stay down ❤
The fact that you are watching it means there's hope
How, or why, do you equate feeling pain with there being hope?
@@user-ug2hk3go6ibecause pain is not a substance. Pain is something that we feel after being hurt (mentally or physically). Hope is a substance. How do we know? Because there is a thing called a lack of hope. Hope is God. Hope this answers your question ❤
@@dimitrije018 Hope too, is a mental state, no?
One time a preacher said that "we are not going to hell just for sinning", you may feel relieved but then he said "however if your first thought after hearing that was to sin and do all sort of bad things then you need to check yourself if you really are a christian" and that was very powerful because it let's you think about how you feel in the inside and how's your conscience, if it's good or bad.
Everyone has sinful desire and nature, so I don’t really think this means too much, but when we sin, we’ll likely be punished, and we need to ask for forgiveness.
@@JesusIovesyou100Even though we are all sinners, when I read it I didn’t immediately want to sin. We all naturally crave food but some foods we don’t like or want. Same for sin.
As I read this the thing that came to my head immediately were, right, we are going to hell because we don't have faith in his works what does that mean?
@@JesusIovesyou100forgiveness even if there is no punishment
I only felt relieved
wow dude, this is genuenly one of the best summarizations of what it means to follow the church of Jesus, to not be lukewarm. Im usuing this and sending it to anyone who has even the slightest intirest, you made it seem to gentle and soft while still deleving the hard points that needed to be said. Truly a great video man thanks for taking the time to make it.
also that line about lets help carry each others crosses, incredibly hard
Amen. Thank you. 🙏
It’s vital for us Christians to remember that in addition to showing grace and mercy toward others we cannot dismiss ourselves in the process. When we know we sin against God and have walked away, searching for Him and allowing ourselves to receive that same grace is equally important to our soul. To wallow in self-pity or disgrace will only allow the Enemy another foothold in our lives. Grace must be exercised daily toward everyone, including ourselves.
Perfectly Said! May Our Lord bless you!
It is just as Jesus had taught us to ensure we remove the log in our own eye. How can we truly hope to direct others to Our Lord if we do not do the same to ourselves tenfold.
You have to realize that we aren’t under the law. We are set apart from the 613 commandments. The only “sin” is unbelief. Which is unbelief of Jesus. Realize that true change comes from trusting the word of God over yourselves.
@@JamalTyrone453 fair points but remember Jesus' teachings that he did Not come to abolish the Law but to Fulfill it. Take that as you will
@@johnfairweather7012 very true. Reminds me of the 1 Corinthians verse that says, “I have the right to do anything,’ you say-but not everything is beneficial. I have the right to do anything’-but I will not be mastered by anything.”
It is beyond me how this video comes along in a period where I feel and know that I'm behaving like a fake Christian; a bad Christian at the very least.
Thank you for this video, this channel will forever be a gem
@@rushikeshjadhav7748hello, can you give evidence for Hinduism being true?
.
@@rushikeshjadhav7748Hinduism definitely has some interesting perspective and is a worthwhile endeavor to study, if even simply to expose oneself to this religion. However, Jesus is the only True way to Life. Life Eternal. Jesus provides all our answers through the Living and Holy Spirit, once we have taken the step of Baptism. I pray, He, the One and Only Lord and Savior of Humanity, Jesus Christ will be permitted to enter into your Heart. 🙏🕊️❤️
@@rushikeshjadhav7748 Hinduism is not in a correlation to christianity. The simplest reason is that hinduism is a polytheistic religion, and christianity declares there is only one God. One has nothing to do with the other. Don't try to deceive people like that.
@@-emenems-The deceived know not what they do. And we all know how Jesus handled that...yet we also know the Truth of the demise of those that have been presented the Truth, and deny it.
This one stung, because I realized how much I fall short . There’s truly a battle going on the inside of me. The part that’s prideful, then the part of me that recognizes I’m being prideful and hates the pride. I say God I cast it on to you but it’s like it comes back. The anger , the shame , the hurt. I don’t know how to truly cast it on the Lord and let it go. I want to forgive so badly but it’s like I’ll say “I forgive ___” and then it all just comes back. God help me to forgive and be gracious like you. Sisters and Brothers please pray for my heart.
Keep going and stay consistent! In this world we will have trouble, but take heart, He has overcome the world!!
i feel ya. i am undergoing the same type of struggle. mine`s not Pride but Anger&Hatered towards the whole of humanity. i pray continually for His return when all this will be burned away and His Kingdom is established upon this Earth. the way America treats our children fills me with RAGE. the overwhelming Greed and stupidity of the American populace has me shaking my head in sheer disbelief at their actions. i may burn in the fires of Hell but as long as the children are SAVED i can live with it. Lev Tahor Bera li (from psalm 51) is a prayer i recite often yet the Hatred remains.
May the LOVE of Our LORD&Savior fill your Heart and open your eyes with a new Understanding.
@@henryavery1167 Lord I come to you right now to intercede on my brothers behalf. His heart hurts witnessing all of the hatred and hate going on in the world. Father you know his heart and that he’s just simply offended as to how anyone can treat you and your people this way. But Father I ask you to soften his heart , you understand his frustration father. Don’t let the Enemy rob him of his joy , peace and love. Let him value and enjoy the days he has left on this earth. The enemy is conniving and a liar! And wouldn’t that be like him to use our zeal and passion for the lord and turn it into hate and anger! We ask you today that you replace the anger and pain with Peace love and joy. Fill him up with the fruits of your spirit. We know in your word in 1 peter 4:8 you say LOVE covers a multitude of sin. In other words Love defeats sin and we know this because Jesus Defeats sin. Let my brother here have a heart of Love like Jesus ! Give him faith that his love will defeat sin. Let him pray without ceasing for the schools and for the children father for you hear the prayers of the righteous!!!! We all come together and declare freedom on his behalf!!! In Jesus mighty name we pray, Amen!!!❤️
@@dejadamone thank you. this means more to me than you may realize. God Bless you for your wisdom and insight. stay strong in your Faith. 💖
I think that’s just OCD. Like legitimately.
This is a confession.
Last month (September) I got off with the wrong foot, I was trying to get into a serious routine of workouts, studies and religious thoughts. But unfurtunately I sinned, I`d lost to the pornography, but I just kept going to the gym and praying every night and then I started doing great every day. I was dealing better than never with my flesh needs. However, on August 3rd I`ve lost again, but now I am feeling worst, I am drowning again and I am getting sick of all really fast, It is like I`ve never changed at all. I am shamed, I am sad, It is sufocating me. I am feeling like I am giving up and going all the way down, down to where I was before September. I was so happy and protected by God. But now I feel like I am not. Even with me doing the same things I did before, but now my body hurts, my spirit is screaming and crying and I am feeling empty. Again.
Maybe, nobody will care about it, but I am asking for help, I need help, please christian brothers, may someone help me?
The fact that you feel guilty about your failures is proof of progress, brother. Keep pushing, you just need to find the rythmn again
I'll be rooting for you
You can make it through this! Keep making progress!
Hello there..
Something like this needs a practical method to be free..
It's not just avout prayer alone, it's about what you do after praying..
What are the contents of the things you see? Movies..? Browsing sites? Pictures..?
If this things are filthy or contains a touch of filth like immoral scenes, surely you'll be bound by the things you're trying to escape from..
Clear your phones from things like this, stay away from certain kind of movies that can stir up these things, watch what your eyes feeds on, instead spend more time reading your Bible and getting clean..
What of the places you go? Do you go to places where the people around you talk dirty things or do dirty things?
Do you have dirty kind of conversations with people?
Stop hanging out with those kind of people, stop being in places where you'll be tempted to listen to those kinds of conversation..
Rather, work time more around godly people that their words have been seasoned with salt.
Above all..
Have a good relationship with God which comes from having to hear God daily from your Bible and people that preached the true gospel..
Be intentional about getting free..
Remember
1 Thessalonians 5:22
Abstain from every form of evil.
All the same..
Remember that going back to God is the right thing to do when you feel like this, he won't push you away, he'll accept you and clean you up..
You just have to repent for this sins and take conscious actions not to fall into it again..
Read the steps I helped you with in the previous comment
This is the quote from St. Augustine.
"He or she is a Christian who is merciful to all.
He or she is a Christian who does not get angry for an injury.
He or she is a Christian who gives aid to the poor.
He or she is a Christian who suffers with the afflicted.
He or she is a Christian who participates in the sorrows of others as if they were his own.
He or she is a Christian who does not shut his door on the unhappy.
He or she is a Christian who does not insult anyone.
He or she is a Christian who serves God day and night.
He or she is a Christian who continually meditates on his ways.
He or she is a Christian who is poor in the eyes of the world, but is rich in the eyes of God.
He or she is a Christian whose conscience is faithful and pure.
He or she is a Christian whose spirit rests in God, and places all its hopes in Christ. "
My cousin and I were on the phone this morning talking about this exact topic-professing to be a Christian, but neglecting our Christian duties to love and serve God and others before ourselves. Thank you so much for creating this video and reminding us to bring forth Christ's light into every area of our lives.
Christian’s are not people who are perfect though, they are people who are bad, and are standing perfectly before God
“Who is my conscience faithful to? And am I faithful to my conscience?”
That line really hit me.

Amen to that. I feel guilty I forget sometimes, just because of how grateful I am for him, and the life he's blessed me with. I feel undeserving of his overwhelming love, and when I remember the things he's done for me, it just makes me want to hug him and cry in his arms so badly.

As someone new to Christianity, this is exactly the sort of thing I’ve been looking for. It’s difficult to sort out the good from the bad. Especially since I was already indoctrinated into a cult at an early age and still feel the repercussions from that.
Yes, I mean a real cult and not the way many people freely use that word to refer to religion.
hey man im in a similar boat as you, would love to connect and hear your story !!
I am sorry that you had this experience and hope that you find a good church family that follows Jesus. Thinking of and praying for you
May Our Lord bless you.
It is very confusing in this day to understand what is truly Just. I am Presbyterian Christian, and that works for me (focus on personal relationship with Our Lord, more interpretive than literalist) my biggest recommendation would be to just get a copy of the Gospel, and really learn about what Jesus says. Nothing can really trump that in my books
Now take the things said in this video and apply it to the relationship with yourself…
How do you treat yourself?
If you judge yourself, you will judge others…
If you condemn yourself, you will condemn others…
If you are gentle and kind to yourself, you will be gentle and kind to others…
If you love yourself, you will love others…
The quote: „Love thy neighbor just as THYSELF“ really means this…
I've been thinking of my life choices... dang.

as much as we all need this, it’s comforting to realize how each and every one of us as christian’s are going through a battle and we don’t have to be alone on it either!
I have called myself Christian throughout this year and have been trying to read and understand the word of God. But I have not declared myself as perfect or completely holy as that would be delusional. However, I have expressed to others that learning and talking to God makes each and every step both stronger and easier for us in our daily lives. Thank you so much for your wonderful content man, love ya!
Also remember that we are indeed perfect and holy in Christ, not because of our good deeds, but by His blood and grace ❤️

My mom always reminds me that a relationship requires communication with him, especially the reason why us as Christians must maintain a communion with him. He is our Heavenly Father whom we talk through in every step of the way, and it all even connects to prayer!
if you are not holy, then you are not saved. The Bible says that if you sin then you're not saved. Jesus said Be PERFECT as your father in heaven is perfect.

I want to follow the guidance God has given me and repent for all I have done. But truly I am doubting and I feel I cannot banish my thoughts. Hearing these frank words of truth always help.

The fact that your videos aren’t just touching Christian but everyone means God is doing work on you, God bless you for making videos that make it able for others to understand the struggles of a Christian, what it’s like to struggle, regardless of background
Dude you did it again. This one hit hard and was extremely convicting, but in the best way possible. I don't know how you are able to simultaneously challenge me on the deepest of levels, but in a way that feels so honest, relatable, and out of love. I find it humbling, encouraging, and inspiring. Never judgemental or condescending. Keep doing what you are doing, man. You got an amazing gift and you are definitely doing work for the Kingdom.
Watching this just gave me a lump in my throat. I'm sorry for not trusting in you enough and turning to other things to temporarily distract myself. I'm sorry. Jesus is my shepherd.
You have no idea how much i've overthinked about the past after watching this video, us humans think we're good at heart until life shows us our mistakes, and like showed me all of my mistakes through this video. Thank you, i'll try to be better.
Dude you are just amazing. God has clearly blessed you so mightily with this gift of making impactful videos. The visuals, the sounds, the simplicity. It all fits together so perfectly.
Proficiency is a skill acquired by training or experience, your statement is only irrelevant so gtfo with that bs

i'm not a christian, however this videos are really teaching me how to live, you saved me from dark places two times, i do not have enough love for you
Living this way won't save you. They won't save anyone and benefit you nothing. You must believe in Christ to be saved and not to come to judgement.
@@geniepaf9364what about say my mom,who is very nice to everyone she comes across,but since she was born in communist China,she has a atheist upbringing and is a atheist,as a Christian,I doubt she is going to hell,and if she does ,I’d rather be with her.
@@JamesZheyuXu
The only and unique mean of salvation is the Blood of Jesus, that is sufficient to wash all our sins. If anything else can be added to the salvation action of the Blood, that would mean, the blood is not sufficient and that the sacrifice of Jesus is not perfect. And that would mean Jesus lied when he said on the cross "It is finished".
But if you want to follow your mom instead of Jesus, it's up to you.
And by the way I doubt that you are really a Christian. Because Jesus said "if anyone loves his father or his mother more than me, is not worthy of me" (Matthew 10.37). But Jesus never forces anyone to follow him. He didn't force Adam or Eve and He won't force you either.
@@geniepaf9364 No,I love Jesus more,who said I want to follow my mom more then the teaching of our Lord?😵💫You are assuming something false,something I find offensive.
But how can I enjoy the presence of god knowing that the person who raised me is burning in hell?
Also,say you was born in a strictly authoritarian country,where they teach you since you can speak ,that there is no god and believing in it is corrupt,contradicting it is against the revolution,how can you believe in something you’ve told false?I went to school in UK so I am a Cristian,this is how ideologies and religions work,you pass it down in schools,most Christians are Christians because they are taught the teachings of Christ at a young age,so they believe in it and they shall believe in it till they die.
Same for my mom ,imagine if you are born in Manchuria,the absolute corner of China ,and every you have been told about religion is that it’s stupid,how can you believe after that?
@@JamesZheyuXu
I'm not offensive at all. Just react to that what you said,and you clearly contradicting yourself. But I won't argue with you.
Just hope and pray your mother be saved.
Wow. This really compels me to look upward and inward. Your videos are beautiful and powerful. THANK YOU and God Bless you 🙏🏼
Please keep making these. You are so helpful for me and my friends who are newer Christians. Don’t stop.
Ive been struggling with sin. I say that but deep down I know I havent struggled at all. I know I choose to indulge knowing it was sinful. In every one of these moments I knew what I was doing and choose to do it anyway. And the more this happens the less remorse I feel. Ive decided to make a change multiple times but to no avail. I realized recently that Im not strong enough on my own and need to restablish my relationship with God. Im gonna read the bible regularly, and pray daily which I havent done before. My biggest fear is to stand on judgement day and for Jesus to say he never knew me. Please pray for me, and I will pray for you aswell.
Atleast you acknowledge this and want to fix it with all your heart…
Like he said it’s what’s in your heart that counts…
I've been in this exact same situation for a few years, but I recently started choosing to read at least a chapter of the Bible a day, which helps me feel a bit more at peace. Instead of focusing our worries on how often we sin, I think it would be better for us to focus on learning more about God's Word even when we feel guilty of sin. Only once we learn more, talk more with God, and repent, we will naturally not sin as much
I've also heard a tip from this same youtuber where he said instead of thinking/committing the sin, try doing something else for 20 minutes (it would be best to pray but you can also try reading, writing, taking a walk, or any other hobby) and it might help you not indulge
I have been struggling with my self worth recently a lot, seeing my studies fall short and my abilities collapse. This video came at a perfect time, as though God came to reassure me personally in a way I could understand, because even though I've been failing my classes and such, I watched this and saw how I fit so many of these criteria. Although this video was supposed to be a rebuke, it came for me as a reassurance. Thank you so much
Thank you. Reminders such as these of the need to be constantly alert are very needful in my walk with Christ. Fight the good fight and keep the faith.
Thanks for this video brother, Bless you, and glory to god, amen!
Beautiful work. The question of insults resonated in particular; in my own head, I can be vicious to others who've really done nothing to deserve it. I'd never say such insults to their faces, but allowing myself to entertain these thoughts is only permitting spite. As powerful as anger can be when something invokes it, and as justified as any harsh word can feel in the moment, allowing your better judgement to concede to it will only embolden it further. Thank you for helping me to understand this a little better.
Jesus is coming Repent everyone in sin will burn.
I repented last night, this helps very much. Thank you! Keep up the good content, it helps my faith
@@chetsenior7253no that’s a heresy
@@chetsenior7253 nobody is perfect
Amen
@@chetsenior7253 doing good doesn’t get you to heaven
@@chetsenior7253if you call yourself good, then you are a liar because no one is good except God.
This video and all your channel is a treasure. God bless you.
Wow, I really needed this video, and I’m sure many others did too. It is a really nice thing that you spent time making this. God bless you all. ✝️=❤
Thank you so so much.... at times I felt like I was some fake or bad Christian... not putting GOD first before any of my other needs or wants... when I was in destress... what did I choose? The things of this world to calm myself... I didn't choose GOD... to place my faith in him, to give him my problems... after I watched this, it actually opened my eyes! Thank you... GOD/YAHUWAH brought me to this video to tell me that I need to stay on guard and not to let myself slip away from God to these worldly things... Thank you so so much, I appreciate it very much! I did some reflecting, asking myself when I felt this or that, did I choose the WORLD to help me or did I choose GOD/YAHUWAH to help me... and I admitted it to GOD in prayer, I apologized to him dearly, and sincerely, I was in tears and I was sobbing and I begged him to forgive me for all I had done, I admitted the awful things I did to GOD in prayer... please... whoever is reading this comment... may GOD bless you... I shall pray for you to get close and actually RIGHT WITH GOD... Pray for me as well so I can get through this... May God Bless you all brothers/sisters... Love you all... goodnight!
Jesus is coming Repent everyone in sin will burn
I pray that your relationship gets stronger with God and others who read this amen.😊😊
Very thought provoking, emotionally challenging and humbling, intelligent
content. Thank you for your work brother.
Jesus is coming Repent everyone in sin will burn
This was so awesome. Thank you. Very eye opening 🙏🏾
you've made me cry, letting go is something very hard to do in this world, I had no clue on where to start, until now. Thank you, thank you Jesus, and thank you God.
I'm not sure if you'll see this comment but if you do, I pray that you'll read it.
All glory to God, but you yourself have helped me more than you'll ever realize.
It's extremely rare to find someone who's faithful enough to allow God to speak through them this clearly.
I can't express enough how much closer to God you've gotten me.
I'm very very easily distracted but when it's one of your videos I just can't seem to pause them, much less click off, not a single time that I've watched one of your videos for the first time, and they always renew my faith while making it stronger.
Thank you, thank you so much and thank you for allowing God to speak through you from the bottom of my heart.
You're a good man.
Jesus is coming Repent everyone in sin will burn
God bless this mans soul. I was watching this video in bed and I broke out in tears. Praise God
Wow! This was an amazing video. May God bless you. ❤
Every once in a while a video appears that has power, that truly makes you feel like it was made the best it could have been. This is one of those few videos. All of us and me especially probably need to rethink how we balance out the world and Him a lot. Thank you for this powerful masterpiece.
This video was a big wake up call for me. It really made me think about how to be a better follower of Christ. Thank you I’m Beggar for the wonderful content.
Thank you for this video. This is tough. I definitely haven't been acting as graciously, selflessly, kindly, forgiving, and patient as much as I need to be recently. I know I haven't been a good Christian woman the past few weeks especially. Thank you for the challenge and conviction. I need to be transformed by Christ again. It seems so hard sometimes, but I need to let God's love fill my life again so that I can be the person He wants me to be.
Your messages continually touch my heart and mind my thoughts my words.....as I give you my will my hopes and dreams....your will be done. Amen. Thank you for making the decision easy and eternal God!
You never fail to bring me peace and truth in the times I need it. God bless you brother 🙏
This is really edifying, thank you brother!!!
A really eye opening video, thank you brother, God bless all of you 🙏
This was in fact a huge punch in the gut for me. Thank you for this, it's made me once again rethink *how* I approach my faith and how I view it, and I appreciate that a lot.
Never stop making these, they help me a lot. God bless you❤
Thank you for helping my spiritual growth. You are one of the best teachers I have found on youtube, I greatly appreciate your videos and share them when I can. Thank you!
This is one of the most profound insights I've watched about God. Amazing. Thank you 🙏🏽
I just found your videos yesterday, your voice is so soothing and the content uplifting.
These videos are phenomenal. Please don’t stop making them.
I felt an insane sense of relief and peace at the release part of the video; thank you so much for showing me this, and thank the Lord for helping me.
I can't say this was a gut punch as more of a video of hope and strong paths to follow as best as I can. I'm fairly new to taking my faith seriously (I've only started walking my best Christian walk since July of this year, though I'm 35 and grew up in the church), and I fully admit I'm a walking disaster that's chasing after the Lord. I'm so glad that the Lord truly the most patience, gracious, and loving being to ever grace this earth, and I strive daily to be more like Him. I want so badly to follow in his footsteps, and while I still struggle and I still fall, I get right back up. While yes, our failures are deeply harmful to not only ourselves, but anyone who knows that we're a Christian (as we're sometimes the only window to Christ some people have), but we can't also beat ourselves up over it, less we stumble and fall harder. Sincerely repent and keep on trucking, because this darkened world needs Christ's light and love, far more than it needs our self pity and self condemnation!
this brought me to tears, thank u for this video
I was waiting and waiting for another video. Your lessons speak to me, straight to my heart. I watch your videos over and over-almost until memorized. You don’t understand how much they have helped me get closer with The Creator.
I needed this brother in Christ🙏
The Lord has bless you with such great creativity and wisdom. Your videos have a huge impact in my life. Please continue to make them. Bless your Brother.
This is perfect. Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you for this witness - I needed this. God has spoken to me. I'm thankful to God for this channel. May you be blessed.
No way this video gets posted right now… I’ve been struggling with this question for a few months now and while this video doesn’t hold the direct answer to the question, it will surely help guide me to it. Thanks for your hard work IMBeggar. It’s making a difference.
Awesome presentation and so gently presented. Thank you.
I am sharing this with the Faculty and staff of the school where I work at morning prayer tomorrow. I created a handout with the 14 parts of St. Augustine’s writing, and some of the question that followed each one. I also included most of the Scripture passages mentioned! I love all your videos and I have shared several with Confirmation candidates. Thank you, IMbeggar! 🕊🔥
This is so amazing! I am a visual learner and this helps me so much! God Bless you for doing this! ❤
This is usually self-exemination basics for confession. This is a great way of communicating it to people. It's more helpful than a list of questions.
Jesus is coming Repent everyone in sin will burn
This channel is Godsent to me today... Thank you, God bless!
I'm so grateful I found this video, may God bless y'all ❤❤
I learned something and cried watching this video, please never stop uploading content like this.
2 days ago, I mentioned you in my prayers, reflecting on how your content has been so helpful to me. God knows how much your videos have helped my relationship with Him. Today, He put this video at the TOP of my feed and the FIRST among all the videos on my UA-cam page! God answered my prayers through you!
Again, another great video with so much wisdom and guidance, you don't miss! God bless you always!
The Lord is surely working through you Mr Beggar : ) Thank you so much x❤🔥
I am not a Christian, but your video is absolutely great. People should help each other and should learn how to forgive. This video is a gem for society.
The door is always open for you:)
If you love what the video teaches, then I can easily tell you love what our religion stands for. Even if some people may not show it, it’s simply what Jesus teaches. Hope you well:)
If you don't mind me asking, what is steering you away from Christianity?
@@Fueganthefireyguy I don't belive in Christianity. That's all.
@@FueganthefireyguyI am just as curious as you are
What is steering you away from islam?
if u just try to learn islam at least like even if u choose christianity at least you chose your fate with your knowledge NOT by following your parents's path who taught you christianity.................. (ur parents cant be right 100%)
@limonion1554 My parents had absolutely no influence in my decision to become a Christian. And to answer your question, what's steering me away from Islam is that I have seen people quote Mohammad doing horrible things in the Quran in several videos (many of which were former Muslims.)
God bless you for these videos brother, you have been such an amazing help in my struggles against my sin and unbelief, you are indeed helping the poor.
This really hit me. I was afraid for my beliefs. This almost made me cry. Thank you brother. Praise be to God.
Amen.
These vids are spreading so much good seed my brother. The harvest will be great.
This is truly beautiful work you’re doing with this channel. Thank you on behalf of everyone it has helped.
I nearly cried this video was beautiful🙏🏻✝️
I think I might have to watch this every morning 😩
What a punch this is, thank you brother, I will be honest, I needed this.
This was a fantastic video. God Bless you and your family!!!
Beautiful thoughts, words and images as always.
