The consistent decline in art over the past 20 years has been quite the tragedy to behold. It isn’t just a style shift, it’s a brutal butchering of excellence and ostracizing the masculine trait to strive for the best you can offer.
This video should have millions of views. I've never heard a more compelling rendition of this song. But the message of this song, oh my goodness, the words tell the story. Prophecy is being fulfilled in our time. Amazing song and talent.
1:56 "Repentance is a genuine TURNING FROM YOUR SINS" This is the false doctrine of "conditional salvation". In order to get the gift, an action is required. Thus, a workds based salvation. Nowhere in the bible does it say turning from sin is a requirement for salvation. Except maybe 1 John, but that is "to the believers." You "repent" FOR (because of, or because) your sins are forgiven/the remission of sins. Montenao = Greek for: Repentance ... is a changing of the mind. In fact, the Gospel of John has been called the "Gospel in miniature"... and nowhere in the Gospel of John does any form of the word "repent" occure. As soon as you believe, you have changed your mind. Grace alone Faith alone Christ alone
I'm an old , new christian. I have had chronic pain illness and unrelated back to back surgery for 25 years!! I have gotten diagnosed with 2 new painful illnesses and need another surgery. I'm 58 and exhausted , but although my faith has wavered I've never lost it. So glad I didnt.you really helped me understand more so I can grow in faith. I told God no matter what is done to me , nothing will ever take my faith. Thanks for your very meaningful sermon
Wow, what a testimony to how God can change the heart. What grace and forgiveness is shown by Heath to his mother and father. A great example of what Christ does for us, even when we don't deserve it.
My mom passed away in 2019 after battling pancreatic cancer. She taught first and second grade Sunday school for 47 years. Heaven, was her most desrired destination. She longed for it. Every day that passed that she was told would be her last, she'd say with disappointment "someone cut in front of me again ". My mother always wanted to see Jerusalem. Walk where Jesus walked, etc. Two years before she passed she finally made it there! At her service, we played this song. Lyrically, it said everything it coukd have. The longing, the end of suffering, her saviors face. Today, she walks WITH Jesus in the Jerusalem she wanted to see more so than the earthly one prior. When this song played, everyone sat speechless. She was HOME. And i cry every time i plsy this because i miss the Godly saint she was, but rejoice because she is where she absolutely longed for. At 47 years of showing children CHRIST, as well as the countless she drew to the lord, i can only imagine HER face as the ones who have gone before walked uo to her one by one, thanking her. Im speechless at the thought. My home, my resting place. ❤️
I now know why I don't watch this version. God, Jesus and Holy Spirit don't appear in the beginning. I prefer the previous years. This is just my opinion. Seeing God, Jesus and Holy Spirit interact with Adam makes it more realistic of what happened in the creation.
You people celebrate death. You're blind as to who the REAL JEWISH Jesus ACTUALLY WAS. The "Jesus" in the Bible is PAUL'S Jesus. You people put words in his mouth he NEVER UTTERED EVEN ONCE. 2% of the Bible is ACTUALLY ACCURATE. The rest was made up. The REAL Jesus would walk into a church and would be DEEPLY OFFENDED being worshipped. Admitting he was "The son of God. Doing so is AGAINST his JEWISH FAITH. He never claimed to be so. Christianity has HIJACKED the Jewish Jesus. How dare you people. He would come back today & the SAME THING WOULD HAPPEN. You people would crucify him again. The JEWISH Jesus was crucified for TREASON. He probably wanted to overthrow the Roman rule. Indoctrination has POISONED your minds. Just leave the REAL JESUS the HELL ALONE. Hypocrites.
