October 13, 2019 "An Anatomy of Forgiveness", Rev. Dr. Howard-John Wesley 

Jesus give me strength these people will pay dearly for their evil and wickedness. May God have mercy on me I am not there yet, the verdict and sentance was rubbish, police, jury, judge and every one of them involved will have to stand before God they have not got away with it. God has a plan for dem. May God help me, but I find hard.

My biological family, 'but God!' my ex husband, 'but God!' friends, 'but God'! I just love this word!!!! I am free!!!!

This message is one for the history books. It’s JUST THAT GOOD!!! My god what a word.

Lord crate in me clean heart, because Jesus will take care of us. Give me a clean heart Jesus

The TRUTH and Nothing But The TRUTH! Like many of Pastor Wesley's teachings, this message was for me. Lord, create in me a clean heart, bless me to be a blessing to this world and not a curse, bless the evil-doers so much so that they will repent and turn from their evil and wicked ways; in the Name of Jesus! Too many People of Color are struggling with our Blackness vs. our Christianity. POWERFUL MESSAGE, Blessings to all.

While sitting in service watching this the only thing I could say was we don't know how the spirit fell on him. He spoke how he felt. Pastor Wesley did a Phenomenal job with this even to picking the best example from Bible to give us clear understanding. I applaud him for actually saying how most of us felt. I totally understand the intension of both Christianity and blackness. He spoke that truth. He gave us instructions on how to forgive like he stated you gotta want it. It's a journey But God! Joseph was a perfect example of how we ought to forgive although it hurt him deeply God prevailed in his life. Let's continue to hold on to God's unchanging hands it will make us a better Christian. (Pastor Wesley) Lord we truly thank You for this Anointed and Gifted Man of God that You have blessed us with who daily gives us what thus saith the Lord. An Anatomy of Forgiveness. I believe that was the title. Truly A Word for the people of God. Continued blessings Sir.

Thank God for Pastor Howard Westley ❤

This was such a blessing and stirring to my spirit. Father, grant me the courage, wisdom, words, and opportunity to address my offender. Amen

This is one of the most powerful sermons I've heard from Pastor Wesley! This sermon is so instrumental for my life 🙏🏽

Found this Pastor a week now...I've learnt so much..God bless you pastor 🙏

This sermon has really blessed by soul. Minister HJ Wesley truly dissected the act or conscious of forgiveness and allowed me to take a look at a past situation in my personal life that I found difficult to let go. And not to mention Botham Jeans younger brother, Brandt Jean demonstration of forgiveness, wow..... I cried while listening to him say, "I love you"...."I want nothing but the best for you (Amber Guyger)"...."I want to hug her". In my opinion, his action was the epitome of true forgiveness. This sermon right here ☝️ has truly taught me how to forgive, let go, and how to move forward.

For moments like this, this is why Jesus continuously spoke about forgiveness. Amen

My God this pastor and ALL of his sermons are such a blessing to my soul! I just discovered him.

Pastor Wesley, I really enjoy your Sermons. God Bless you Pastor.

Forgiveness when you can’t forget

My God.....what an Amazing Grace the Lord has over this pastor!!!!!!

Lord thank YOU for directing me to this sermon, this was just what I needed to hear to remove the hate and bitterness I had in my heart. Daily I kept asking myself why does this keep happening to "US"? Why do "THEY" hate us so much? This sermon has directed me to how YOU say we should handle situations like this. Lord i must be honest, its not gonna be an easy forgiveness for me, but i promise i will give it my all through YOU to forgive and let YOU handle the situations I cannot change. Thank YOU Jesus!

This sermon is one for the history books! Awesome teaching and preaching!

This taught me alot about how to forgive.

I love this sermon! Pastor Wesley is so annointed! I love listening to this young man! He tells it like it is, he's so easy to understand! When people do me wrong, i forgive them then i put them out of my life! Very powerful sermon! ⚘

One of the absolute powerful sermon yet. We as Christians do not want to acknowledge that we struggle with forgiveness but it's real. Praise God HE can look past our flesh and continue to teach....your people need it!!!!!

And you know what I felt that and I honestly believe that letting God take care of situations you will come out 💯 % better than holding hate and Animosity Let go Let God sit back and watch

This just helped me mature spiritually.

When I look into that young man's eyes all I see is Jesus. I could never fault him for doing what Jesus put in his heart to say and do.

I needed this , this spoke directly to me. My husband walked out of our marriage with no warnings . He had made promos during put me thru so much hardship. I’ve been praying for forgiveness IT IS SO HARD

Thank God for this Man of God. His Sermons are Powerful, Uplifting and clearly Understood. With all the distractions we are faced with. He helps me focus on the Lord. Amen

When I first read about Botham Jean's brother hugging Amber Guyger, I did not know how to react. I felt torn between the need for forgiveness, but also the need to recognize the incredible wrong Ms. Guyger had committed. To be frank, I felt anger growing within me because I knew that this compassion would not be shown toward a black person. Thank you, Pastor Wesley, for the message from Scripture that shows me how I as a Christian should respond.

This message has really blessed my soul...

Pastor Howard, thank you very much for this refreshing and biblical based sermon, my heart started feeling free. To God be the glory, may He feels you with more wisdom and truth from heaven! Shalom!

Here's something EVERY Christian needs to eventually accept: you will never get to the next level in Christ until you forgive someone who didn't ask for it, doesn't care if you've forgiven them or not, and will just as soon curse you out (or worse) if they ever see you.

And THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE!!! I've watched Dr. Wesley preach almost weekly for as long as he's been on RU-vid. THIS message is probably one of the most honest messages I have EVER heard. I didn't even watch the news footage because I didn't want to see the verdict or sentencing because I was so upset. I pray that GOD would give us all the love of GOD, the courage and strength that this young man has shown to this woman. Like some of the families of the Charlotte 9, GOD is using these families to teach us a very valuable message. john 13:34-A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; AS I HAVE LOVED YOU, that you also love one another. 35- By THIS all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” Matthew 5:43-You have heard the law that says, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. 44- But I say, LOVE your enemies! PRAY for those who persecute you! 45- In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For He gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and He sends rain on the just and the unjust alike. 46- If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. 47 -If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that. 48 But YOU are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect."

I came across alfred street in youtube recommendations. Never have i encountered God through a ministry in the way i have with this church and this truly annointed minister. This message was powerful. I totally agree with the points on releasing the anger but also eventually not talking about it. Once the offence is committed to God and you pray to get over the disappointment, it all fades with the passage of time. You know you truly learn when you never repeat the mistake again.

POWERFUL.

This is such a powerful Word of instruction. I have just recently became aware of this young man and his ministry via RU-vid,and I have watched MANY!. I could go on and on, but for the the sake of brevity I say Thank God for his gift and for him walking in it and sharing it with us. And use his Selah to speak with him, reveal to him, draw him closer to You, knowing that he will in turn give it to your people. Amen!

Everyday, as a humble servant of God I'm personally faced with my own "Christianity intention with my blackness as a woman, mother, Minister and spouse! Thank you so much, Rev Dr for this prolific revelatory teaching for every African American human being on the face of this earth!

Very powerful and moving Word from God. Thank you, Pastor Wesley, for delivering what I needed to hear.

I have been following this church online for a couple months now. There have been many lessons learned, but this one blessed me in a way that so touched soul. Thank you so very much for your apparent love for our God, and your submission to His will.

whew... I did not allow myself to watch the trial or Brandt Jean's statement. It was just too painful. I watched the clip and I'm physically sick... not necessarly by his words but by his embrace of Amber Gygure. Only God could crack open Brandt's heart to allow Jesus Christ and His all consuming grace to have center stage for a time like this. Although I have many questions and am in disbelief by it all, I refuse to put God on trial. No matter how hard it gets, I still believe He's got it all in control and His will be done. I hope the Jean family will stand with Atatiana Jeffersons family. To forgive on this magnitude is like cutting the cancer out and pray that it does not return. I pray for the fortitude to continue to fight for justice every single day. We are tired and hurting. We will rest but will never quit! Thank you Pastor Wesley. Continue to illuminate the path so that we all may continue to fight-on!

We Ned to forgive for healing

Powerful and Awesome message!!!!

God bless you Pastor Wesley, I really appreciate you for helping me to understand the entire situation through your sermon!🙏😀

See how God works? This week, my prayer theme was asking God for the ability to truly and genuinely forgive people (mostly two family members) that have done some hurtful things and to not hold grudges and want revenge. Not just saying "I forgive them" but to truly have forgiveness in my heart... AND THEN??? I see this pop up on my recommended videos. Thank you Father God.

This was good. Forgiveness...we got to forgive for us to be forgiven. Thank you for this sermon.

WOW!!!! God Bless her so good she will never hold another grudge again.

Speak truth pastor. I felt all of that and was ready to FIGHT!!! I also visited the Lynching Museum and Legacy Museum Saturday, October 12th which sent me to another place. Lord help me be like Jesus among these injustices because sometimes I want to go postal.

This is speaking to me today and helping with my healing. ASE'

So glad I was in the house to hear this first hand.

Excellent sermon by pastor Wesley. As it pertains to that judge, that is a different story.

BUT GOD... Thank you Pastor Wesley

He preach that word of God and broke it down 💯✔️ good teaching bless my soul.

I hope you’ll agree pastor, that the most productive thing a white person can do to fight racism is to give their life to Jesus.

Pastor Wesley I really needed to hear this morning. I really thought that if I put the hurt behind me I have forgiven that person. I am really struggling with forgivenesses from my heart and not my mouth. This word is a confirmation that a letter may be in order. I have not discussed my hurt with the offender. Thank you

Powerful message on Forgiveness 👏🏾👏🏾

woooow I praise God for this message

Amber was jealous of him! There was a pic of her, this innocent man and another white woman in the pic as well. This photo went viral after the pre-meditated murder against this man! This country will always be judged by black and white! I truly understand forgiveness, but that manipulating role-play they performed in front of that amazing family, was aweful! It took a lot for that brother to demonstrate his heartfelt Godly forgiveness! God is going to bless that family abubdantly! That took a page out of the bible for him to to do that! Prayerfully, somebody somewhere, saw the power of God take presense! I'm still in tears! God, and His Son Jesus's power of Love is a Lesson of Life! That crime touched THE WHOLE WORLD! Thank you pastor for this teaching! Because I was so hurt and lost by the court's decision and the brother's decision! But what I learned from this case, was, evil helped turned the cops intentions for bad, but; God step in and turned this tragedy around for the good of the family! But God! Thank You Lord! This was a good lesson Dr. Wesley!🙏🏼☝🏿🙌🏼🙄🤔😔😊

This pastor is phenomenal.

Preach !!!! ❤️

PLEASE bless us WITH this sermon when you come to Houston THIS month!!

His brother's love is incredible. This must be like Abel's blood calling from the ground that forgiveness is based on love and not on making things look right.

"HES BETTER THAN ME" AMEN TO THAT! XXX

This was an amazing word/sermon. Loved it and it touch what it needed to touch.

Give your life to Christ under the Jail.

AMEN Pastor Howard

Glory you have to learn and that struggle is REAL!!!

My my. My my! Needed this word, Doc. May God continue to BLESS and ELEVATE your ministry, sir. Peace, -Bryan

MY GOD!,,,

J✨E✨S✨U✨S✨! This is incredible! Thank you!

Teach Pastor Wesley

In His Life, May He Redeem ,

Rev. Wesley I am so sorry; but I don't know if I could do that. Something is just not right with this situation. I can forgive but I would just put her in God's hand and leave it there. I would save my hugs for my parents.

San Francisco is where you need to be Man of God!! Home of Kaepernick, The West Coast Offense, The Goat, and 5-0. Ticket waiting.

Amen

😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Amen I feel this message in my soul

great sermon

Thank you

BUT GOD!!! Hallelujah!!!🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏

I praise God amen

, But God! Thank you Cuz, great sermon! This is one of my all time favorite bible stories. Joseph R. Williams (Weedie) Atlanta, GA

Forgiveness isn't the issue. It's the PUBLIC displays of forgiveness that I have a problem with. Oppressors don't always need to know that they've been forgiven. Sometimes, forgiveness should be between you and God. There are times when you have to let them live with what they've done and not tell them that they've been forgiven.

AWESOME!!!

Great Sermon

Thank you! Pastor I am one of those people...Your better than me. Law enforcement want let me go after that man in Georgia that raped the love of my life. So, we 🙏 because I was forced to live with the pain and hurt of losing her after she graduated from Tulane University Graduate School of Social Work.

Pray for your enemy's promotion and if it hapoens you will then watch them use their influence to turn others against you to fire you. The devil is real. I love this message. But I'm not there yet. Plus you can forgive if the offender acknowledges it or not.

Ouch!! Outstanding sermon!

👍🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Wow, Wesley...

BUT GOD!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful message dear Dr. Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it - Parable. Thank you ASBC stevietstevens.wordpress

SAY THAT PASTOR!!!

So true Amen bro

Did she ask for forgiveness? " but I love you just like anyone else." I don't. We need to go to God in prayer and ask why do we have to be left stuck with loving someone who has ruined us, destroyed us. His brother Brandt Jean, is brainwashed. People have hatred. That's just my personal opinion. It may not be the way YHWH established, however it would have taken a while to get over the hurt and pain.

Isn’t this pastor divorced? Where was the forgiveness needed to heal his marriage?

I think this is unrealistic. People think they can violate believers because of our relationship with God. Forgiveness is for people who truly truly are remorseful for their offenses. I won't carry around anger but this is by no means a free pass for you to treat me any kind of way because I'm a believer.

According to the judge, the bailiff wasn't combing her hair - she was frisking her hair when she came back from a break. It was on the Tamron Hall Show.

I wonder if the reason we are so quick to forgive is because we lack the power to establish justice in those/that scenario(s) and therefore we settle for forgiveness.

Not donald duck pastor!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

RIP to the witness Josh for testifying. He didn't deserve to die 10 days later either. She had a master copy of the key to enter into his apartment is what I suspect. How terrible and sad.

Isnt this full on everybody! I find it hard just to forgive a bitchy mean comment! Xx 🐒🐵🦧

This racist stuff hurts me and makes me real MAD! Wesley says it well!

Post traumatic slave-disorder indeed
