Frustrations of a Worldly Christian

Frustrations in life are normal, but for a Christian, they are a sign of split devotion. Every dissatisfaction if life is a sign we are seeking satisfaction from an insufficient source.

I used to be upset that i was born unattractive. Now, i see there are more important things to worry about, like spreading the Word of God and live for Jesus.

In years to come, when blind faith in a fantasy becomes less and less popular as we evolve culturally, people will look back on speeches like this and classify them as indoctrination into a massive cult, of preying on the vulnerable, programming peoples behavior. I truly hope that day comes sooner rather than later, so less people fall victim to religion. This speech is literally exactly the same as every other cults doctrine. Preying on insecurity and vulnerability, promising their god will give them a purpose and to ignore everything else in life and only listen to their gods words (which just so happen to be written and spoken by a self-important person). Thus isolating the victim from friends and family and tightening their control of the victim. It's just a matter of time before our culture evolves beyond cults and religious control. Be smart, think for yourself.

@mysteriesmadeknown2874 3 года назад
James 4:4 You adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the world is enemy with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. :5 Do you think that the scripture says in vain, The spirit that lives in us lusts to envy? :6 But He gives more grace. Wherefore he says, God resists the proud, but gives grace unto the humble. :7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. :8 Draw near to God, and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded. 1 John 2:15 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in that person. :16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, comes not from the Father but from the world. :17 And the world and passes away, and the lust thereof: but whoever does the will of God lives forever.

Frustration IS because we SEE this world....The thing is desire to please God and denying one self. Thanks for a great video....

@@JoelStevensTRBC wait until your daughter comes home and says: 'If you want to be my friend, you must, by comparison, hate everyone else-your father and mother, brothers and sisters-yes, even your own life. Otherwise, you cannot be my friend.’ Such a command differs in nothing from the very first demand of every, narcissistic, sociopath; control freak, pimp, cult leader. So, if your daughter would come home with such a boyfriend I really would like to be a fly to measure your appreciation and approval of her choice. And yet, that’s exactly what Jesus said and he included wife and children in his sickening desire.

HI Walter i agree with you , referring religion to a drug, and there are many religions out there all man made, the blind leading the blind . so i am going to ask you the following question and don't think about religion ok HOW DO YOU VIEW THE BIBLE: Would you say it is 1, a book of human wisdom ? 2. a book of myths and legends ? 3. the word of God? What the Bible says: " All scripture is inspired by God What can that mean for you Satisfying answers to life's big questions - Proverbs 2; 1-5 Reliable guidance for day to day living - Psalm 119 :105 real hope for the future - Romans 15: 4 CAN WE REALLY BELIEVE WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS? YES , for all three reasons 1. Amazing harmony 2. Honest History 3.reliable prophecy if people followed and taught Bible principles , and not their own teachings things would be a way lot better in this world today if u would like to know more or study the bible for free, please feel free to visit www.jworg website take care

It is so difficult sometimes to accept that God loves me and has taken note of all the good things I've done in my life.
@rosemaryjoubert837
@rosemaryjoubert837 6 месяцев назад
HI Bruce i was interested in what you said here ,"It is so difficult sometimes to accept that God loves me" lets look at the Bibles view on that, 2 Timothy 3:16 says " all scripture is inspired by God" so Lets start with a question: Does God really care about us? We live in a world full of cruelty and injustice. Many religions teach that the sufferings we experience are Gods will. WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES: God never causes what is wicked, It is unthinkable for the true God to act wickedly, For the Almighty to do wrong says: Job 34:10 . God has a loving purpose for for humans, That is why Jesus taught us to pray; " Our father in the heavens, let your kingdom come let your will be done as in the heavens also on earth " Matthew 6 : 9,10 God cares so deeply about us that he has gone through great lengths to make the fulfilment of his purpose a certainty - by allowing his son to die for us John 3:16 so never doubt Gods love, by finding it difficult to accept god loves u and taken note of all the good you have done! would u like to learn more free of charge? please feel free to visit www.jworgwebsite

WOW. Ok. At the beginning, I think it's worth to mention, I DO NOT mean to offend believers (in any way). So, where to begin... This video may be over 4 years old, but it's still the same nonsense. Do you REALLY believe that? That seeking attention by improving your skills, broadening your knowledge, making human friends and doing something valuable for the world is somewhat "bad" or "sinful"? It is HUMAN to do so and it's nothing to be ashamed of. Or maybe I just don't understand the course of thought behind it. Please. I really want to discuss this topic.
@JoelStevensTRBC
@JoelStevensTRBC 5 лет назад
Thanks, improving your skills, broadening your knowledge, making human friends and doing something valuable for the world are good things. The intended message of the video is that seeking attention, satisfaction, and fulfillment through those things independently and not from God leads to frustration.

Nothing new or different, brother. The suffering Has been lifelong. Torture is my everyday reality. My pain tolerance has become a matter of daily survival. Adonai Yeshua is haMashiach and we WILL endure to the end and be saved. Glory to His Name!!! Pain is not worthy to compare with His Glory!!!!!!!!! For, I have been crucified with Mashiach, nevertheless I live. Yet not I, but Mashiach lives in me. Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him.
