Every now and then I come back to remind myself of where I was, and what I can not allow myself to go back to. I went through 22 years of addiction due to a lot of childhood trauma and grief. I reached a point where I thought I couldn't go on and in a strike of lightning I looked in the mirror, didn't recognize myself and knew something else had taken over. I asked God to remove it, and today I am almost 6 years sober, I have a wife, a 2 year old baby girl, a home, and a career helping others that struggle with addiction and trauma. It was at some of my lowest points that I found Flyleaf and Lacey Sturm and I can honestly say that the message I received through her music helped me find God.
One Gospel: Gospel (GOOD ANGEL) of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever. Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods). REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.
PRETERISTS, HISTORISTS are taking away from the worst horror the world will see (Matthew 24:21), when the earth shakes to and fro like a drunkard (Isaiah 24:20), as the pit is opened (Revelation 9:2) and the locusts are released (Joel 2:25). John received the book of Revelation. Yet, he was told that he would be coming back at the end. Revelation 10:11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy AGAIN before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings. That revelation (given within the past 2 decades):
Paul says unbelievers are blinded by the "god" of this world to the truth of the Gospel. They are unable to understand spiritual things. They consider the Gospel foolish. SO Imagin the blind TRYING to read scripture. Its impossible. Hense we have Mormons, JWs, World society and now the Roman Catholic Church who intellectually interprets with personal creativity to fill in the gaps between what can be seen and what they want to see. The Danger of Personal interpretation is not a blanket danger but one of unrestricted Recklessness when tried by the unredeemed. The first 40 years of church history read the Tanakh in the Septuagint. Otherwise known as the LAW and PROPHETS. this text predates the church by 400 years.
This is so what I needed. Thank you pastor John. I just ordered the book. One of my friends told me about the book, so I searched on RU-vid for sermons. 🙏
It's pretty clear: "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God." 1 Cor 11:3 and many other places.
I've been searching everywhere I'm really hoping Baker decides to do a reprint. People are buying the CSB Baker Illustrated Study Bible for $600+ USD. Even the biddings on Ebay go for about $300+
Oof. The occult is strong with this guy. Y’all do know the enneagram was channeled demonically? You do know spiritual formation is mysticism that is antithetical to biblical Christianity? The Bible tells you who you are- a sinner in need of salvation. These clowns will deceive you to hell. Scripture is sufficient.
Live life through the Holy Kingdom.= Holy Spirit that is within the very instant you accept Christ as your savior . Be led by the Kingdom within not rituals. This denomination is demonic
I don't fawn over celebrities or idols at all. But if I had 10 minutes to talk to this amazing lady or share a conversation in passing. I would be truly grateful. The wisdom and beauty in her mind. Is absolutely incredible.
I just recently finished this book and loved every page of it. I am a huge fan of Nathan's and will read/watch anything he does. His thoughtful demeanor pulls me in and I love his vulnerability - oftentimes laughing at himself, which is endearing. A wonderful book that has brought me closer to God and taught me how to practice His presence. Thank you for writing this, Nathan.
That made me almost cry. I watched this to see what went wrong, and, I see, nothing went wrong, everything went right. That must be the difference between Christian bands and other bands. God bless you, you're a wonderful singer, hope the Lord leads you back.
It is. You are right. I was saved at 19 now 38. Everything she did was right because of YHWH. I visited this video because the man whom I married at 19 just was saved at 41. I was trying to show him her salvation story and realizing her fruits are showing. ❤
The one time I saw them live they tried to lead a prayer and almost got booed off stage. Still great music even if it religious. I miss hearing her live.
