To make a long story short; The last decade I have not been living in faith. I was lost. Still believed in god but was angry with him after losing loved ones and I was not honoring him at all. In a moment of great pain I put him to the test once again and opened my Bible randomly. 1 Timothy 4 is the first thing I saw. Gods mercy and patience with us is astonishing. Thank you for your insight. from Arizona to Ontario, God bless y’all and thank you for assisting my Bible study this morning.
Trust me nothing takes more courage then going from a hate and disdain to loving God again. It shows a level of wisdom and maturity but also understanding that we shouldn't attach too much to this world as long as we have faith. People that never go through this stage in their life usually lack a depth to their character. God bless you
Hey Pastor Paul I was the one who emailed you asking about why would satan want to kill Jesus. Thank you again for answering me right away. 😊 I have learned so much and couldn’t have gotten through the Bible without your help.
@@timothymutinda5277sure, this was his response. “Hello Diane, Satan is a liar and a murderer. He can do nothing else. He doesn't just choose to lie and murder. Those things are literally part of his being. - his essential makeup. Satan can no more REFUSE to murder than you can refuse to breathe. Pastor Paul”
Thank God for the Holy Spirit and for His blessings. When He works through men like us He shows just how awesome He is. Pastor, the Holy Spirit is working through you and it is filling for my Spirit and Soul. Thank you for your submission and boldness to speak.
love that Isaiah quote @36:00 great find and thanks for sharing it in this context. I like it how you keep pulling the old testament when talking about the new testament, please keep it up if possible (I know it's a lot of work)!
These things 20:30 are good when done with balance. I get great value in my faith from fasting and not worrying about my flesh so much. Trust in the Lord, have faith, read your Bible, study your Bible, fast if you are able, and Pray! Prayer is so powerful and you are working in God’s army when you do so.
Coming from a pre-millennial view of eschatology, in verse 4 where it says “to abstain from foods which God created to be received with Thanksgiving...” I wonder if that could be in reference to the movement from the global government to destroy the meat industry and promote plant based and bug based foods.
One of my all time questions: the difference between the conscious that God put in all of us and the Holy Spirit-which is also given. Seeing my conscious checks the BAD (and good) but the Holy Spirit seems to only deal with good? Still seeking understanding 💕
I feel you when it comes to the whole Liver and Onions Paul my mom is the same way the smell is so terrible! I loved your Q&A series a few days ago that hour went by in 10 minutes it seemed can't wait for the next one.
It was to the church at Antioch that the prohibition to refrain from eating 'meat offered to idols' was first given (Acts 15:20, 29, 30). allowed that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols. (2:20).
Verse-by-verse study and learning apologetics are required, then the evil one will have trouble deceiving you. Daily be in the Word in a serious manner. Thank you, Pastor. Enviromentalism is a legalistic Gaia worship religion (4:3) adherents don't want you married, having a family, or eating meat doing it all through verses 1-2.
I was thinking the same thing… We earn crowns in heaven for our good deeds, but Pastor Paul knows this- he just was trying to make the point that we don’t earn our way to heaven through good deeds, so I didn’t comment about it.
1 Timothy 4:1-5 New International Version 4 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. That’s sad 😞, “ no sense of right or wrong” meaning they can’t be saved??
good question / many preach its possible / others preach most likely not . all i now is i dont want t be one of em nor walk in agreement with them , we are IN the world BUT NOT OF IT !
You are not dammed until you die. In this life there will always be hope in Christ. The blood of Jesus is enough to save and capable of being accepted by all living men.
Yes they can be saved, but they don’t want to. They don’t want to come into the light, they want to live in darkness because they don’t want their sins to be exposed, and they want to continue to live the way they’re living- in sin. That being said, many will repent during the tribulation, they’re called the tribulation saints, but unlike us, born again Christians, they will die martyrs.
