She fell for the original sin. Jesus already paid for the fall. This time it's a sin unto death. They're not going to crucify Jesus again. I would give her a wide berth.
Thanks so much for this great interview. I am a mother who is standing my ground against my own daughter who has decided that she is transgender. I refused to call her by any other pronoun other then what she was born as. I’m so sick of what is happening to my daughter. I’m praying that she comes to her senses soon. To God be the Glory.
Amen!! Same situation here. Heartbroken. Daughter so angry that I will not call her my son. Love her so much. Will pray for both of these young women. God is bigger than the lies so many young people are believing. ❤
Good for you, don’t give up- it’s real Love to tell your child the Truth in a world full of lies.🙏💗 I used to be confused and my family never wavered in Truth or Love for me, they refused my nonsense & it made me More open minded and got me thinking differently from the Liberal rhetoric I had been taught at college.
I have been one of these soft Christians! I used to be quite bold in my faith and would speak out on issues often, not concerned with how people viewed me. Then I lost some very close friends due to my beliefs during the 2016 elections and it hurt me deeply. I’m still hurt by it. I’ve become a shell of my former self in terms of defending my faith, and haven’t spoken out on anything in years because I don’t want to lose anymore friends. I love and respect Rosaria so much, I want to be as fervent as she.
Godly repentance is a beautiful thing. Thank you for your humility. May God strengthen you to stand boldly for what is right in these dark days, counting it a blessing to be reviled for his name's sake. May you grow in caring for what he thinks more than what others think, and may you find your fulfillment in pleasing him. Be strong and courageous, for he is with you!
Such humility is a blessing from God dear friend. Now it's not always easy to defend our faith, but it is worth it. Please know that you're not alone in this.
I just went from agnostic to an unsactified believer. I simply mentioned my journey to my family and close friends. They all treated me with immediate disrespect and judgement. It was eye opening witnessing that rejection. Makes me more of a believer. I can only repent and hope he forgives me and offers his grace.
Bless you Chris 🙏 . . . Yes, rejection is common when you start seeking and actually living out the Truth. Jesus even says in scripture family members will be against family members because of Him. So just know that it’s okay even though it feels raw and unnecessary. While dying on the cross Jesus said to the Father “forgive them, they know not what they do”. He was speaking about those who were killing and insulting Him. Rejection is the first instinct of man when their sinful nature is confronted with Truth. Mankind is fallen and does not understand the things of the Spirit. The Gospel is counterintuitive to our fallen sinful nature. But praise be to God we are saved by Grace, and not by our intellect or good deeds. I strongly urge you to read as much scripture as you can everyday. The Word of God is living. The Holy Spirit and The Word will guide you and strengthen your walk with Christ. Pray to the Father through Jesus and ask for His help and you will lack nothing. He loves you so much. Blessings ✝️🙏✝️ Matthew 4:4
My experience was the same. It was like my family was possessed all of a sudden. A real invasion of the body snatchers deal. It took but a short while and I realized they never changed. It was I that changed. They still had the same old antichrist spirit I grew up with. I have a new Spirit and it is their enemy they believe. Welcome aboard new sibling!!
Aaron, I'm so sorry you went through that. Please don't let the bad behavior of some people turn you away from God. Read Romans, chapter 1. It points out that the fact of the Universe makes disbelief in God inexcusable. Paul gets into who Jesus is in that chapter, but for a more comprehensive portrait of who Jesus is, what He has done, and why you must trust in Him, please read The Gospel of John.
Since day one you repented, God (Jesus) forgot it. Now you need to do the same and "sin no more " says the Lord. God bless your life and walk focused towards the Kingdom.
"The only place to stand right now is at the foot of the cross, so come join us!" What a beautiful talk. Wonderful women thank you both hostess and guest.
This woman has some really dope interviews with Beckett Cook as well IIRC. But I've followed her across multiple podcasts, she's got lots of insights. I can't tell you how stoked I am to be able to have found all these properly orthodox Christians online who set me on a path of really starting to understand this religion. I grew up going to the United Church of Canada, and man oh man was I misled by all their false teachings...
What is the United Church of Canada in a general sense? Just the name suggests a gutted government run form of religion that denies the deity and power of the Holy Spirit through Christ.
Most people professing Christ have never even obeyed the Gospel. The faith once delivered to the saints(devout Jews) in Jerusalem, 1st Century AD looks nothing like institutional churchianity that most associate with the term Christian. John 3:3-5 = Acts 2:38-39🎁 👦 👧
@@ONEFAITHofJESUS Unless you personally know the majority of Christians in the world, you are making a baseless accusation. Do not bear false witness. Saint does not mean devout Jew. Jew and Gentile are alike in Christ. Most of the opposition to the early church was by devout Jews.
I was married for 22 years and then my husband decided to leave us because he is gay. The last 6 years have been difficult, because we are Christians and how to explain to my 2 teenagers that homosexuality is a sin and we can not affirm it, but that we love him as a person. God has brought us through many challenges and still do daily, but it will always be difficult messy thing in our life's that we have to deal with. He has moved in with a partner and want us all to just get along, but I will never approve this relationship. He is a lovely generous person, but I trust God and His Word above all men and emotions. and like she said, it is about saving his soul for eternity. I will share this video with my now young adult children, to empower them as well, Thank you very much.
"I trust God and His Word above all men and emotions" So God has spoken to you? Personally, one on one? Or...have you been reading one of the many versions and translation of his supposed word written down by men, which you then interpreted influenced by the culture you live in, after which you had a talk with yourself inside your head and then you felt better so you figured you must've just interacted with an omnipotent entity? But no, the people who request that you address them by their preferred pronouns or who fall in love with someone of the same sex are the delusional ones, clearly.
I apologize for the other commenter's words, know that I'll be praying for you. And don't let someone who is mocking you deter you or shake your faith. God still delivers people from this possession in 2023. If you want I can show you a testimony of how within a single moment he turned such a man like yours although not married from going down to going up again.
@@B.A.B.G. Who are you to be apologizing for my words? These are my believes. You're confusing refusal to engage in 'religion hospitality' with mocking.
I'm very sorry, Estelle, that you and your family have to go through this painful time of separation. Just know that most of us who see you sharing this painful burden fully empathize and we'll be praying.

I am only a little ways in and I am already inspired. I am not homosexual, but I am a therapist and reformed liberal minded “spiritual” person who struggles with how to properly guide people when I have the opportunity and also how to date as a single 54 year old divorced woman who wants to save sex for marriage. Rosario’s situation was FAR more challenging … and i always love seeing intelligent, passionate women embracing Jesus ❤
Go get your god given female sexual groove on. Enjoy your life and never doubt yourself in the face of someone who would shame you down in following your loving self.
At minute 35 we need a short of just that!! You are never too far gone for Christ’s blood to completely cover you and make you clean. Inspiring and encouraging episode, once again! Thank you both.
Dear Sister please read holy Quran in your language which is from Almighty God is the complete solution for mankind. No one will go to heaven without accepting Islam which is only the way of life. Otherwise hellfire will be the permanent destination for the disbelivers hereafter. JESUS (peace be upon him) is the messenger of Almighty God but not God. Please research in RU-vid and find the truth of Islam in your life
So happy to see Rosaria on Relatable Allie. I am a Christian with unwanted same-sex attractions and her testimony has impacted me so much. She is such a powerful voice for the Lord in the area of sexuality. Thanks for having her on your show! I am so encouraged and I pray that many will be encouraged. As you shared, she is definitely an amazing vessel of what the gospel does and the redemption that the Lord offers for the broken.
And there it is! You admit that wanted or not, if you are LGBTQI it is there, it is inherent, you can't choose not to feel the way you do. You can say you hate that about yourself but you can't "make it go away" No one can. I completely disagree that there is any such thing as a "former" lesbian, gay man etc. If there is, then there must also be "former" straight people. Sexuality is a spectrum, we are all on it.
@@sharonhoward884 the key is that no matter our sexual orientation, we submit our all to God through Christ. We all arrive into a broken world since before birth. There are lesbians and homosexual who have experienced a transformation. I know some of them. The only opposite sex person they ever desired was the one who became their spouses. And, some celibate, not by choice, heterosexuals have been delivered from promiscuous lifestyles into adventurous fulfilling lives as singles. Unless you cross the line yourself into that dynamic love relationship with God through Christ and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, you will never understand. EVERYTHING on earth pales in relationship to the magnificence of walking with the living God. It goes so far beyond just a set of religious beliefs.
@@sharonhoward884 if you are thinking from a human stand point then your thoughts create your reality. And if from a Christian point of view which is the mind of Christ, then it is not so. The Bible which is believed to be true by Christians thinks this about sin. We are born with sim because Adam and Eve sinned. So yes, inherently we are born with sin and so we have no power over who we are. But that is not how God created us to be when He created humans. Sin entered the world and now humans are slaves to it. Slaves don't have a choice, you naturally find yourself gay and unless you are set free from that sin you will die gay, we are selfish and liers and etc etc the list of short coming is too long thus the saying "i am only human." Now since God did not create us to be sinful nor desires us to remain so, He came to set us free from this jail that we can't get out of on our own. If you ever study the Bible, you will see that God desires something else for us and it is not slavery to sin. Why does He call it sin, 1. It is against His original design. Since God - Yahweh created the world, He had an ideal for it and going against that ideal does not work in the long run and does not bring the best for us either. We live for today, God lives for eternities and His views are not constrained by time. Now you may not believe in the existence of this God nor any other gods. And so you may not subscribe to the thinking of sin nor slavery to sin. I am not going to say it is ok. I think one should really search for how life came to be and examine deeply all argument available in order to avoid being wrong, which is eternally very dangerous. Now stating that we are born in sin and are slaves to it, this is were Jesus comes in to set us free. By believing in Him we are set free from our natural inclination to sin or lesbianism or sex outside marriage or alcoholism or lying or selfishness etc.etc. When we believe in Him, our spirits which are born dead are made alive by His Spirit known as the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit now lives in us giving us power to overcome this nature of sin. Galatians 5 says when we live by the SPIRIT we won't gratify the desires of the flesh. The human is a 3 part being, a spirit, a soul and a body. The soul being the will, mind and emotions. Now the spirit in a man is born dead and then can be born again and come alive once a person believes in Christ. Yet that does not mean the emotions and thoughts and desires of the soul and flesh have changed. Here is were the word of God that transform our thinking into thinking like how God thinks and the power of the Holy Spirit to overcome our sinful flesh comes in. I am not sure if i have managed to explain the whole born with a nature to go against God and His power to overcome that and live for Him and like Him. You can choose to keep on living in a sinful nature because it makes you happy. But i hope that one day The Holy Spirit ministers to you on how wonderful it is to live in godliness and holiness and the benefits it has in this life and that which is to come. Wishing you all the love and happiness and joy dear one. Blessings.
@@emmayanaauguli2228 great explanation. I would clarify that worldly thoughts create our own of reality. In truth, it is not reality at all. The trans movement only magnifies what is true for all of us left to our own confusion. God's truth is almost too amazing to grasp. When we realise how fallen we are, we walk humbly embarking on a journey to follow God's ways which is so much higher than our own, that we could never considered ourselves better than others who don't yet see the pitfalls of their own, self-made distortion of reality. In 1977, God led me to a little church with many Christ followers. They lived their lives in ways that exhibited the empowerment and the fruit of Holy Spirit. I never saw such joy and childlike lack of inhibition to be who God created them to be. It's not a contrived cookie cutter religiosity as some might think. I thought they gave God too much credit for a whole lot of things. But they winsomeness drew me to study scripture and seek the Living God for myself. He met me where I was at with the most amazing invitation into a wholy and holy accepting relationship. Yet called me and empowered me to a better life. When taking a deep dive into homosexuality and other sexual sins, we often discover sexual abuses in ones youth which is an injury to the person impacting them for the rest of their lives. Regardless, sin simply means missing the mark. And we are, as though described, born into a sinful, broken world. All sin is a bondage that weighs us down making us less than what we could ever hope to be. Christ is the antidote for sin. He lifts us higher than we could ever hope to be. We see that innate sin in all of us. Children do not need to be taught to lie or take things from others that does not belong to them. It is in their nature. We must learn how to walk in truth and all the freedoms God affords us. The illusion is that sin is freedom . The truth is God's ways are freedom and joy and peace that passes all understanding. It's not that Christianity doesn't work, it's that so few people do not apply it, especially here in the USA where we have so many distractions. Even so, personal faith in a living God is one of the first things attacked when communism invades a country. People of faith are not easily controlled. Freedom in Christ is real.
Sister Butterfield - Thank you for your testimony and witness of Christ. Your perspective on sin is refreshing and absolutely true. God bless your mission.
I just came across this channel. WOW! What an enlightening, encouraging, and convicting interview. It's better than some sermons I heard. I will listen to it again to wrap my head around some of the contents. Rosaria's testimony is a perfect example of the power and triumph of the gospel. Kudos to this channel for shinning light into this dark world. May God bless you both greatly 🙏
Indeed there is no other God except Almighty Allah who is one and everliving and only the creator of every single thing. JESUS ( peace be upon him) is the messenger of Almighty God but not God.
What an important conversation in this season - it is so timely. So true that we cannot and must not support sin and pay lip service to mortifying sin. So true about the "soft presence" deception. We have that here in Australia too : the foundations have indeed shifted. Obergerfell, 2015 has made a huge difference - the centre isn't there now. Thank you for sobering and necessary Bible based insights. We have to go into battle wearing the whole armour! Thank you so much ,Allie Beth, for interviewing Rosaria Butterfield!
We just have to find the balance w/ this. I'm grateful I don't live in a circle where pronouns are coming up all the time. It comes up occasionally when dealing w/ the government and having to do a questionnaire. If I am asked directly what gender I identify as and what pronouns I use, I try and very gently say I'm female, and if they ask which pronouns, I just repeat, I'm female. It feels like a gentle pushback, w/ no harsh lecture.
Thank you Rosaria and Allie. My daughter is calling herself non binary and convincing my son that he is to transition to being a woman (he is 16), You have given me hope and courage. I called her by her "new name" for a while and when she wanted me to do the pronouns, I refused feeling like I was being controlled and lying. Now I only call her darling when I see her briefly. She won't speak to me and now my son is speaking about becoming a woman when he is 18. I fight in prayer. I trust Jesus implicitly. I am in pain for their rejection, not of me, but of my Lord.
Good for your kids! Hope once your trans daughter is 18 she’s able to pursue her transition, and it’s nice that their older sibling is such a great supporter of her
I’m sorry your family is going through this. God is in control and is patient, wanting all to come to repentance. Keep praying for your children to turn to God rather than the lies of the world. I hope they will see the truth before they damage themselves too much. God used my sin and its consequences to humble me. Some of us need to hit rock bottom to accept His saving grace. I was almost 30 when I finally surrendered to God. It’s never too late! God bless you and your children 🙏🏻
What a painful struggle, to see your kids going through this. They are rejected their very selves for who they are. This terrible relativist movement has shaken their foundations to where there is no truth and standard now. Keep praying, and keep seeking encouraging testimonies. There are so many detransition testimonies now. Some of them are Christian too. Lots of trans regret. I hope your son and daughter see some of these stories before it's too late and before hormones and surgery has done permanent damage. I really don't want to scare you further, because it must be such a struggle to stay strong. God is our strength.
I pray that your kjds snap out of this delusion. The trans trend is promoted aggressively to kids now through mainstream media, social media and online.
Bless you Rosaria for your courage and clarity on these difficult issues. For those standing on the Word of God without compromise with our adult children, loving them while being immoveable about these details your testimony is rich medicine. God bless you Allie for this insightful, bold interview.
Wow so grateful for Rosaria and her work! I relate to her testimony so much. I was a feminist, pro LGBTQ activist, and Marxist for a decade. I identified as bisexual and had sexual feelings towards men and women since I was molested at a very young age. I was a believer in high school but left the church in rebellion over its stance on homosexuality and gender roles and I got introduced to feminist academics in college. The Lord radically encountered me in the darkest time of my life with his love. He has taken me on an inner healing journey and deliverance. He opened my eyes to the truth of the spirit world and the darkness in this "woke" political landscape. Now I can proudly say I am a child of God covered in the righteousness of Jesus and I am not ashamed of the Gospel that saved my life! That is my identity!
Man, Rosaria Butterfield gets it. There's a myth going around this country that Christianity excludes certain types of people who identify as this or that. Actually, it only excludes the proud (Luke 18:9-14). God welcomes all who deeply recognize their own insufficiency, and humbly reach out to Him in faith (Luke 7:36-50; John 6:68). He will then change them so they can become conformed to Him: "Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us." (Romans 5:1-5)
Exactly. Believers must preach the Gospel and reveal God’s love to all because Jesus is all inclusive. He invites ALL people to His Kingdom, ESPECIALLY the lost and confused sinners. And if they need transformation He will transform them as they draw closer to Him.
She helped me decades ago when I cut out sexual immorality off my new life in Christ. She continues to help me. I’m appreciative. I was healed by Christ from homosexuality and all other forms of sexual immorality Praise be to God.
@karinadoshi3950 Thank you! The description of homosexuality as a lifestyle is a blatant oversimplification of human sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular. Such indoctrination of the collective societal psyche is paramount to both the formation and maintenence of the self validating delusion of heterosexuality possessing moral validity. The reason that we never hear the term " heterosexual lifestyle " is because there is no need to categorize heterosexuality with such descriptively inherent connotative oversimplification in order to subconsciously justify contempt and hatred through subjective ( and, therefore, contextually unfair and invalid) comparison. While such complex reality is certain to come with a threat to the subjectively comparative sense of moral superiority of many, such is the cost of growth demanded by truth.
Rosaria Butterfield has always been an inspiration to me. However, I have never agreed with her views on "conversion therapy" (a term we NEVER took for ourselves) and on her use of preferred pronouns. I am so blessed to see her change her position on both. Her humility in admitting she was wrong is so encouraging. Aren't we ALL in the process of sanctification? In my own experience, I was very distant from my violent alcoholic father. When I was four years old, I began to be sexually molested from someone whom I admired and whom should have been a protector. This abuse lasted over ten years. During this time, I developed feminine characteristics. I was made fun of at school. And I LONGED to be more masculine. I also craved approval from men, particularly my dad. I didn't get it. I yearned for affection from a man. The only affection I received was from my abuser. Eventually this longing to be more masculine and to have masculine physical affection became my idol. I wanted masculinity more than anything. And then I started having sexual encounters as a high school student with various men. Does that sound familiar? It's the pattern found in Romans 1... The Lord miraculously convicted me after I was in college. After an anonymous encounter in a public bathroom, I FINALLY realized I was a sinner. Call me a slow learner. I repented. He forgave me. And He made me a new creature. Now it wasn't like a magic wand that suddenly made me straight. But I had repented of homosexual sin. I saw temptation as Satan's way of trying to get me whereever the strong hold was in my previous life. Fast forward, God led me to a beautiful wife. We have been married 36 years next month. We were blessed with 11 children (from thinking I was gay to being dad to 11 children?? Don't tell ME God doesn't have a sense of humor!). We also just had our 24th grandchild. Not everyone who repents of homosexual sin will be led to marriage. And being married is NOT a litmus test over whether or not we have been delivered from this sin. But I never would have been able to be married and had a family if I had not surrendered to His will. So what about masculinity? How the Lord has taken me through progressive sanctification on that one! Initially I only wanted to hang out with girls. I was comfortable with them. But I longed to be more manly. The church I joined encouraged reserve between the sexes and so I was somewhat socially forced to hang out with the brothers. That was the best thing that ever happened. I began to be comfortable with them. But I wanted to hang out with the ones whom I thought were most "masculine". Then I met Sy Rogers at Exodus International. At first, I couldn't stomach him (I can't BELIEVE I felt that way, I'm so ashamed now). As Sy himself said, many men with same sex attractions give out little signals that let people know they have SSA. Sy-- he wore a banner sign. But as he also said on the Phil Donahue show, "Brother, I am LIGHT years away from panty hose!" I began to really listen to Sy. This man whom I originally thought was feminine began to teach me what biblical masculinity really is. He was a leader. He was bold in standing for what was right. He courageously followed God at high cost and high reward. He entered a relationship with a woman, whom he later married, even though he was fearful. He protected her and their beautiful daughter. And he PREACHED. Oh my he preached. He passed away in 2020,but look him up and tell me if he isn't one of the most godly men you have ever listened to! Today, all of my close friends are men. My two closest friends in the world are two men who know all about my broken past, have never struggled with homoesexual sin themselves, and yet love me anyway. From makiing an idol out of men, to being called out of that darkness into His wonderful light. That's the kind of God we have.
So agree with you Rosario!!! I'm a public school teacher in an indigenous remote community. We actually still have the Lord's Prayer in school every morning!!!! I was chaperoning a school trip with one other teacher and two students. On boy and one girl who thinks she trans.(was sexually abused) I knew this girl from Bible camp too and she made a profession of faith and was baptized. But that very fall she had started to socially transition. So on this trip as we roomed together I was praying for an opportunity to say something but also was being cautious as if I upset her she had nowhere to go as we were in the city. I don't know if i did the right thing. I did make sure she visibly saw me do my devotions in the morning hoping she may ask. 😢 please pray for her and me to do tye right thing!
Rosaria, thank you! Praise be to God for your incredible testimony and work. You have encouraged and helped and inspired me in an unparalleled gospel-centric fashion. Your life honors God and we are so privileged to share in it with you. May God richly bless your new book and I cannot wait to read it.
God bless these ladies. I loved the conversation & I heard something I needed to hear personally that I’ve been struggling with. I have been praying for some miracle transformation of my heart, and Rosaria said I needed to pray to crucify daily my sins. I have an active responsibility to be accountable and make the choice to choose to do what I know God says is correct. It’s a two way street, when I’ve been thinking it’s a one way. Please pray for me to choose Christ and follow the narrow path that leads to the wide gate, brothers and sisters 🙏
I hear what you're saying and I have been doing the same. We have to be active in are fight to overcome sin, and that we are accountable to apply what God says in His Word if we want to see good fruit grow in our life. I heard yesterday that it isn't addiction that causes us to sin, but what we choose to believe. If I we believe the Power of God has Sovereignity over our life, sanctification, and Holiness then we won't give in to the sin that is worth so much less then our peace of mind, good standing before the Lord, and our eternity with Jesus. The example given by John Piper was with a man thinking (believing) he's addicted to porn, and can't help but give in. He said that if we believe the stakes are high then our self control will kick in. He said if someone broke into his house and took captive his wife and told him "If you look at that porn on your computer I will slit your wife's throat." The husband would easily be able to resist for something as important as this. How much more important is our eternity with God.... It's a battle every day, but God has given us all the tools and wisdom to fight the good fight of faith. I pray we work with God and become transformed by the renewing of our minds, so that someday we get to hear "Well done my faithful servant, I welcome you home to the Kinydom." God bless you sis!
This is wonderful and so encouraging. I was never gay, but I was a liberal atheist that supported the LGBT community, for over 40 years. But in the last year, I had a proper turnaround. I'm now a proud conservative Christian who is strongly against the LGBT community. I'm still trying to move past my horrible decisions and stances of the past.
I too was liberal to a point that I was more complacent about the LGBTQ but with all this promotion no matter where you turn even to kids, I've become more militant against it. I'm still a Democrat but I am a Christian so I do accept a lot of liberal ideologies. When I was a little more open to humanism, that's when I fell for the deceptions.
Rosaria, Allie Beth... what a GREAT discussion. What struck me most, Rosaria, is the evidence of the transformative power of Christ in the life of one who was engrossed in the lifestyle sin. Specifically that His transformative power in demonstrated in and by you of His truth. Thank you for sharing your testimony with us.
34:57 to 36:24 perked my eyebrows up! I was in my living room cheering on Miss Butterfield! From the making the distinction between Christians who want to go to heaven and those who live their lives in a way that says they do not though they believe they are going just because they call themselves Christian and not follow ALL of God's word. Matt 7:21-23 & 1 Cor 5:11 where Paul expresses that there are those who are "so-called" Christians. The most powerful part was of course, where she expresses how Jesus Christ can bring us out of any sin where we feel life is over and renew our lives, Amen!
Thank you Rosaria, what a great testimony of God's wonderful work of redemption and unconditional love toward us sinners 🙌 I give thanks to God for your neighbor's love for you and his patience in planting seeds of truth in your heart ❤ and not condemning you for who you were. Psalm 40:2-3: He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in him. I pray your testimony will help others to find their identity in Jesus and may God use you as an instrument for the advancement of His Kingdom 🙏
Detransioned convert here to say God is so GOOD! I felt there was no way out of my life in sin, and yet through his son God showed me a way to be whole in his light. I love you all, and so does God. Praying for those who are ‘gender confused’🙏
After the Pulse shooting in Orlando Florida, my pastor re-evaluated his position on homosexuality. He invited a forum of homosexuals to share their points of view. The key thing missing was homosexuals who had been delivered from the lifestyle. Heartbreaking. He provided no real spiritual guidance for fear that he might miscommunicate a hatred for people who are homosexual. Withholding the truth that we can be delivered from our sins is one of the greatest sins of all. How grateful I am for the people in the deliverance from sin. As long as we live on this Earth we will never be one-hundred-percent send free. But we will sin less and less. And once delivered from sexual sin (regardless of the brand), that sweet freedom is one of my greatest joys. Never looking back. Never withholding the possibilities of freedom in Christ. That is not love no matter how well intended.
❤❤❤❤ wow what a testimony, so much truth & wisdom shared in this video! Thank You Lord for these opportunities to hear & learn about what You're doing!
Amazing episode Allie I have heard of Rosaria’s testimony in Becket and Alisa’s channel and I really love hearing about this topic. I know it is a hard one but VErY important for churches to talk about especially now. I definitely agree to call out some soft Christians and pray that Gods opens their eyes & really show to not fall into the ways of the world, & by being okay with sin & accepting it. We must read God’s word & also be firm our walk with him, and to really know the truth from a lie 😊especially now it’s super important to have that distinction.
Thank God for what He's done for Prof. Butterfield. She's saying great stuff here, and I can hear the traces of her Catholic education in the way she talks about some things. Very sad to hear about her parents; that kind of smug, complacent dissent seems to be dying out among our people, both lay and consecrated, but it can't die fast enough. In the meantime, in spite of her bad experience with individual Catholics, I hope she looks back to the Church that those nuns spoke for, the one strong Church that can always be relied upon.
My beautiful daughter that I poured Jesus into her whole life, but, half her life was lived with her unsaved atheist dad, went to a liberal college 5 hours away from home.... she majored in vocal performance as an opera singer... the first semester she felt very ill at ease, as to her political views... just had an election... I went to all her performances in the schools operas etc, and we prayed and I still continued to pour into her... She graduated in 2020, and announced to me that she was bi sexual, and has now been living in a lesbian lifestyle with a partner since then... I love my girl obviously, and I lover kiana as well... I see the deception they live, oh and they have an open relationship, so they can date other girls... I did on the last time she came home, without her friend, start to use the pronouns, and this podcast just affirms to me that, that isn't not only NOT the loving thing to do, but it is disobedience for me as a Christian... I do know that she will come back to Jesus as in the old days, but until then, I can only speak truth to her in love and pray for her! Would covet all of y'alls prayers of you think about her... her name is Chavilah... the c is silent like in chanukah... A whole story behind her birth and life... was not a pleasant upbringing at her dads starting at 18 months old.... Anyway, thanks for the timely podcast!❤
This was enlightening, powerful and thought provoking. Thanks for sharing and making it clear that as Christians we should how to Jesus and not culture.
Praise God. We all have fallen short of the glory of God and need God's help in every facet of our lives. God loves everybody as he made them not as they perceive themselves to be.
What an incredible testimony and stance for truth...the redemption that JESUS can bring is so powerful! Praise God; thank you for speaking the Bible so boldly!
Everything this woman said was beyond brilliant 👏👏👏🙌🔥🕊But what stood out for me the most was 1)the LOVE she experienced from Christians was a catalyst and 2) "Jesus is your lawyer, He'll get you out of it" AMEN🎯👏🔥🙌
I agree 100%! One can’t have their cake and eat it too. I’m a former homosexual, however, I, personally, feel that, in my situation, I was more “gay-curious” than I was “gay”. In some instances, actually being with a woman repulsed me, but, because of the many years of curiosity. I had believed that I was gay. One morning, I’d woken up and it had dawned on me that I had come to a self-realization that I wasn’t gay at all! From 1991 to 2017 I was under the impression that I was gay and I’d believed that lie, wholeheartedly! These days, I have no desire to be in a relationship of any sort, but, this was by choice. I’m 64 years old and I, simply, have no interest. I’m, slowly, but, surely, coming around to becoming “one” with Christ for the second segment of my life. I was a devoted LDS Christian, or, Mormon, which, incidentally, is a Christ centered religion. A lot of Christians believe that Mormon doctrine is demonic and, why, I can’t register it.
Wow. Someone who is willing to call out the soft presence mentality. Willing to call out names like Tim Keller (I commend Allie for calling out T. Keller as well) who yearn to appeal to man more than the Lord - the King! Great post. Brave.
"He and his wife just shared the gospel with me, not once, not twice but over 500 meals"! TALK ABOUT BEING LIKE CHRIST and living from faith! The wicked heart is not put off by our love for God, but by God's love for us in the giving of His Son. His love is greater than all of our sins and the penalty due to us for them. HE IS RISEN! John 15:13, Col. 2:11-12. Thank you Ms. Rosaria for sharing your testimony! CHRIST'S ARE THE FRUIT OF CHRIST'S LABOR John 12:24 to do the same. He is building a Kingdom that cannot be shaken!
The words she spoke about Christians sending children into government schools were very strong. My church continues to surprise me in the way they condone our children in public schools. Some claim the elementary schools are "so good" and I just don't know how to be silent and accept that. Private schools are for wealthier homes, but I'm not sure why my Dallas, TX based church doesn't speak more for homeschooling....
When i was listening to this like you said people do change and i thought the didnt, but ireax your book also and i higlighted the part about a hild that wanted to be a girl and his parents were going through a divorce and fighting for custody, but a child with a supporting parent isnt wrong, but it isnt right either, because God made you the way YOU are.
Wanted to share this wonderful testimony with my family (cultural Catholics) but there are too many commercials- they don’t know how to skip through them.
