Pastor Doug this was an incredible amazing well needed sermon thank you may God keep you and your family this day the Sabbath day happy Sabbath and for the new coming week God bless you
Thank you for this sermon. Judas always seemed to be viewed as one of two images: 1) Unapologetic: a supernatural evil entity; one of the evilest symbols in the medieval version of hell Or 2) Apologetic: a reluctant man consented by God; fully knowing of his actions and the events leading to the Resurrection - - Pastor Doug’s sermon showed, through text, that Judas is yet another lesson for all of us. Judas is not this bestial monstrous entity; nor was he in full knowledge of his actions. He was another human being with free will, who witnessed and believed in the power of Jesus, was given all the authority and love by Jesus, but still a part of him had his eyes on an earthly prize. So many of us declare our love for God but, deep down, are we really giving enough of ourselves? We say we follow Jesus’ teachings or is it all-talk and no action? We should always keep ourselves in check and remember to have faith in a heavenly prize rather than an earthly one. Thanks Pastor Doug for such a thought provoking sermon on a difficult topic!
Yes. As a life long Adventist, I'm being called to major self-examination. Selfishness, covetousness and pride can be so imbeded in our characters but we don't realize its poison because we pride ourselves in being in the "remnant" church regardless. God is revealing to me that church membership is nothing if my life doesn't reflect the love of Christ as seen in 1st Cor 13. Do I have the fruits of God's spirit abiding in me? Those closest to me can answer that better than I. I know I'm not alone. God is calling us, especially in these times, to look deep into our lives and motives. Let Him reveal and heal. Don't doubt the mercies of Christ.
Amen🙏 Thank You, Pastor for a important message for all of us: "Jesus first above all else" May we All remain Faithful to Our Heavenly Father until his 2nd return❤
When we are doing the right thing, and get reviled, especially when it's by someone we dont know, it's the evil spirit in that person. The bad spirit in that person knows the spirit of Jesus in us. I understand about family being against us. I come from a very abusive family. It took me a loooong time to grasp the concept that a person's own parent or sibling can bring evil intentionally. One of the things we as humans need to fully grasp, is the fact that evil is all around us. Too many times, we attribute evil deeds people do, to mental illness. It's not mental illness. It's evil.
Thanks for the RU-vid shout-out. Thanks for bringing such a valuable message about Judas. Blessings to all who have ears to hear and open hearts for God's word!
When God finds you in the cave. Have you seen the lost sheep and coin in the streets and their tents there are many attached by the devil vicious angels even forbid them to go to Church not to worship God in the spirit and truth. But they never separate us from the living God. We worship our God in our car sleeping and eating there in our car. Praise the LORD Jesus who was not found to laid for His head. We shared His suffering glory be to our unique the living God who delivered us from the devil and His vescious angels and reserved us for His heavenly kingdom forever. Amen! Pray without ceasing for us who are abused and victim and buried alive by cruel and wicked ones. Amen!🙏🙏🙏our God heard our prayers and has seen our tears and and heald us. Amen! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Pastor Doug I'm going through that right now with somebody who my love very very much and it hurts but God told me and his words that this will happen in the last days so I'm praying and I'm asking you to pray for my family
Great teaching and the subject of Judas is very important in these days. Both Judas and the Antichrist are named Son of Perdition in the Bible. If one is looking for the Antichrist one needs to notice the Judas.
Awesome word. God thank you for this message. It was only this week Judas was being discussed concerning his demise. Thank you for allowing Pastor Doug to minister this word.
God is never limited to what people do or don't do. No one had to betray Jesus in order for Him to die for our sins. God never desires any to be lost...but He knows what people will choose and the end results.
🙏❤😇🙏HAPPY BLESSED SABBATH 🙌 PASTOR DOUG BATCHELOR AND FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF THE SABBATH DAY 🙏AMEN 🙏 AMEN 🙏 GLORY BE TO GOD ALMIGHTY FOREVER AND EVER 🙏AMEN 🙏 AMEN 🙏🙌🙏🙌🙏🙌
This speaks to me: many are the times I’ve aligned myself with God for earthly gain and prosperity and when I didn’t get it, I was angry and didn’t think his promises are true. I wanted the best marks at school thinking it would be to His glory, deep down I was wrong. Today I’m praying : Lord Jesus please come into my heart, that I may love you and be a true follower of you.
I think, like now, people underestimate God's capacity to change His mind. (Write it not!) It doesn't have to be predictable but rarely have we surprised God & still it only delays things as they slide back with desires & short memories! I believe there's still a choice but humanity not used to dropping everything & doing total opposite, help each other, clean up, talk, care about each other instead of ourselves
I've met one. One Mexican man named Judas. I asked if he knew who that was and he said yes. I asked if his Mother knew when she named him. And he said yes. Then why, I asked, did she name you that? He said in Central & South America it's just another name. Tho' he's STILL the only one I ever met.
Isaiah 54:16 Behold, I have created the smith and the blowers the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. Proverbs 16:4 The Lord hath made all for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. Isaiah 46:10...........My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasures:
Woooooow I didnt know this about Judas. Indeed theres alot in his character that we all battle with. May the Grace of God help us all. Watching you from Cameroon
Hi, who is the singer? It was beautiful, am hoping on to get listen to more hymns with such a powerful voice. And where in the Bible does it say that Judas was in the crowd trying to convince them to make Jesus king? I find that interesting thank you.
I’m Beth Tim’s wife who needs a true friend who can pray for my family and help my husband and I ! Some real bad things has happened to me and my........ please
You and your family are in our prayers, Beth! The Lord understands your struggles and has promised to be by your side always. May He bless and guide you. - The Amazing Facts team

@Desire Of All Nations ok as a sda how come you guys are not keeping the Passover which is one of many commandments. Numbers 28:16. Since you guys believe you have the truth and claimed to be the remnant church. Oh fyi both statements are lies.
The passover pointed forward to Jesus 'The lamb of God'. That was fulfilled and completed at the cross where He shed His own blood for us instead of a lamb's
In order for the plan of salvation to be fulfilled it was necessary for Jesus to be the perfect sacrifice. Judah was the path to this fulfillment of the perfect sacrifice. We see how this unfolds in the Bible as Pastor Doug eloquently tells the story. If Judah had not betrayed Jesus then it would have been one of the other disciples, yes? I'm not saying Judah gets a bad rap. His deception was necessary in Jesus fulfilling his earthly mission. I find that very interesting. That and the 12 disciples each represent one of the 12 tribes who will enter into one of the 12 gates of the kingdom. Is Judah not going to be in heaven? I don't know.
You mean Judas? not Judah surely? That is the tribe Jesus was born from to enter this earth. Judas will not be in heaven, he was replaced after he killed himself. That makes the 12 disciples. God's blessings be on you
@@aadyarose It is not your choice to make about the fate of Judas. If you judge him out of Heaven maybe you will be judged the same? Jesus chose Judas knowing he would to what he must.
Hello friend! Great question. Pastor Doug doesn't respond directly on this account, it is run by his account managers. Infamy basically means "an evil or wicked act." Hope this helps! - The Amazing Facts Team
Hypocritical considering Mr. Batchelor was married before and tries to hide the fact that his first daughter Cheri was conceived out of wedlock. His first wife Karyn is the mother of his 3 children Rachael, Micah and Daniel and he and his current wife act as if they are the parents of all of the children.
I get that it’s disappointing that you hear the mistakes of others especially to those you look up to. However; they are just human and God knows the heart of every man here on earth. A Christian isn’t a follower of others, but Jesus. Besides, even the Bible heroes made terrible and big mistakes in their lives too. Yet despite the mistakes, God forgave them and used them for His better glory.
I think i had heard a sermon Bachelor did where he mentioned he had a daughter he had from a previous relationship.But that's of no relevance to mine or your salvation. ..just saying lol
