Uplifting, inspired to live right with Jesus Christ my Saviour and Lord. Words spoken here is comforting, built up the body of Christ. All of get ready for His return and prepare now. Repentance of sins. Hell is real. Share the gospel to every soul. Amen
The "Light" is understood as the wisdom and understanding given by the Holy Spirit - which is manifest as the Logos/Jesus Christ our Lord, and who is also referred to as the "Light of this world". The Holy prophets of the old testament tried to teach the tribe of kind David (the chosen flock of God - meant to lead and show the way to the rest of the world) - but their depth in sin and betrayal into idolatry prevented them from "communion" as such - and therefore failed to evangelise the world despite their witness of such great miracles! Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I've tried listening to this point a few times to get the meaning. I apologise if this explanation hasn't helped.
You might want to consider that the great apostasy began with the invention of Catholicism in the 9th century. I say this as someone who went down the path of the priesthood in Catholicism and then later joined a monastic religious community and Catholicism. I studied enough history and it led me out of Catholicism and into Orthodoxy.
@@TranslatedAssumption No, the apostasy begins after the Gospel is spread thoughout the whole world, which the Catholic Church played the biggest role. You studied yourself into a schismatic position in pride.
All Christians including myself will be enduring dark times known as the tribulation. Regardless of what denomination we belong to. Roman Catholic, Eastern Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Protestant and so on. The bottom line is that we’re going to endure this tribulation. And why? Because we have sinned against God and done bad moral things to ourselves and to others. And regarding to the current pandemic, COVID-19. I believe that this pandemic is a sign of God’s wrath. No matter how virtuous we try to be, we’re still going to be tested by Satan. But he will not achieve victory at all. Because God and his son Jesus will prevail. So here’s what we shouldn’t be doing. We shouldn’t give into despair and give up. Instead we should be remaining loyal towards God. And trust him. Be faithful, it’s going to be hard time. But again, God and Jesus will intervene and prevail.
Amen. It's a clear message and warnings. Repentance of sins; unsaved people need to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, hell for the unsaved people who rejected the salvation, end times message, and inspiring us to be close to Jesus
The Tribulation is not God's wrath. God's wrath will be upon the one's with the mark and worship Antichrist as god. God doesn't punish The Church; this protestantism theology. The Church has always gone through hardship/Tribulation because it builds character. Also, let me also correct you by saying, Orthodox christianity is not a denomination like Protestanism and Roman Catholicism.
Things that Jesus said in the first century do not necessarily equate terms of their definition of how we have understood such things within our lifetime.
@@TranslatedAssumption So you're saying when Jesus said it would happen to their generation in their time, along with some of the fathers and 3rd century eastern scholars reaffirming this, that doesn't necessarily mean what they said it meant?
@1214gooner the word is age, kjv mistranslated aion by using the word world. Other translations (including the nkjv) fix this problem. It says the end of the age, meaning the end of the age of sin and death.
