“If the world is against the truth, then I am against the world.” -Saint Athanasius I’ll be praying for my Presbyterian brothers in Christ. May God protect His church from Satan and his forces who seek to corrupt and destroy it
There is no heretic agenda. The belief that gay people are somehow born wicked deserving to be punished for being them selves. Is bigotry. It doesn't matter if you think it's not. It is by definition
Heretic agenda? Why should I belive someone is innately evil just for being gay? Where is the evidence? Is this what your religion teaches? No wonder conservatives are losing.
@@noneofyourbusiness7965If think it is because It explicity contradicts the believes of the Church which are in its confessions. The confessions remains the same, they just don't follow it.
@@hoosas5998 Even if most are unaware of it, I actually think it's quite simple The more people have Catholic values, the more people join the Church or consider joining it. At some point, even a union might be possible and since the Catholic Church has a higher "power", we'd become the defacto Church
Baptist here. I can't believe how far some of the leaders of the PCUSA are going. I'm praying for you brother and to continue keeping your movement alive to stop this heresy.
Though are confessions may be different, Baptists must stand with our Presbyterian brothers against the tide of corruption and Wickedness. Glory be to God and to His Kingdom!
If you're actually a Baptist then you shouldn't be calling this heretic "brother". He believes baptism and communion save, rather than faith alone in Christ.
@@wisdom1611 There are things we can disagree on but won't affect the overall beliefs. Some would argue that you only need belief (aka faith), while others would argue that action is fruit of your belief, no action = no belief. Both are rooted in the Bible. Ultimately, "do you have faith in Christ" should be the only test to consider whether you are a follower of Christ, Christian, or not
@@wisdom1611 In the end, it comes down to whether they believe Jesus Christ saved them from eternal punishment. Based off this guy's videos, he has been fairly consistent in pointing out how Jesus died for our sins. Even though he might believe that baptism saves, it doesn't mean he isn't a Christian. As long as you believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and that he saved us from our sins your saved and are written in the eternal book of life even if your views change over time. I don't agree with a lot of things that Redeemed Zoomer has said in his videos, but it doesn't stop me from supporting a fellow Christian to rid this evil.
@@wisdom1611Looking at your past comments you seem to leave a lot like these. I know you have the right intent as you want to ensure that everyone is on the right path. I understand where your coming from as God calls us to correct other Christians for what they say and do. But I question you, is this really worth the battle? It's not a heaven or hell issue and sure there may be differences in what we believe, but I think that we should let God work through others minds with the Holy Spirit. We shouldn't push down on other Christians to make ourselves appear more righteous. Otherwise we're just like the Phrases who follow legalistic rules, and have no compassion for those who might have the slightest different thought.
The conservatives must remain strong in the face of this evil. This cannot be allowed. In the words of Martin Luther: "Here I stand; I can do no other, so help me God!"
@@golvic1436 Thank you and God bless. Theological differences aside, nothing is more important than making sure Christianity always teaches the true Gospel of Christ’s death and Resurrection
How does the church make something legal? What’s the punishment for illegally disobeying? They don’t control the biblical canon. They can’t retcon entire churches from heaven. I pray you’re able to stand your ground. You’ve helped me a lot in understanding my faith.
I believe in some cases where the PCUSA (or whichever denomination) owns your church building they can basically evict you for not complying with their doctrines, I believe there was some drama of this sort featured in a Ready to Harvest or some similar channel's video.
Question. Why should I believe someone is innately evil just for being born gay? It just seems you're using God as an excuse to be bigoted. Is God a bigot then?
@mantispunch intentionally evil? no, a sinner? yes, just like everyone. Sex before marriage, masturbation, porn are all sins, its not just homosexuality
@@mantispunch It's not that gays in particular are evil, it's that everyone is a sinner, gay or straight. And while the church shouldn't affirm homosexuality, it shouldn't reject gay people from the church because we are all sinners, and gay people are no different.
It is absolutely ridiculous that this has become a serious problem in modern day churches, God help us all, and God bless you RZ for fighting against the tide
I am a baptist but I fully support this movement to restore biblical Christianity in the world, may God bless you all and help you to stand firm on the rock of faith, where no storm of heresy and evil can knock over
From a PCA Presbyterian (sorry, I have kids), I really believe in you guys and think you’re doing an amazing thing for the church. I hope the PCUSA, my former church, isn’t beyond saving. Best of luck gentlemen.
lol...what makes you think PCA is safe? It took nearly 12 years or so to finally say firm "NO" to Greg Johnson's efforts. However, the damage had been done already. He already gained support from several churches.
@@thomasc9036 every PCA church near me is unequivocally against sin and preaches the Bible every Sunday. My own church takes a firm stance against modern culture in the ways it clashes with a Christian, biblical lifestyle. That’s more than enough for me.
@@bravesfan714 lol... PCA and other Presbyterian churches are governed through presbyteries and the general assembly. Your "local churches" matter very little when it comes to policies. You may want to read up on how presbyterian churches are governed.
@@thomasc9036 I’m well aware of how presbyteries work, and it’s part of the reason my local churches are so great like they are. Also, local presbyteries and congregations actually have a lot more individual authority than you might realize, unless you just have a naive and shallow understanding of how the Presbyterian structure actually works. You’re pretty clearly here to try and condescend and stir up an argument, so I’m gonna just let you be. 👍🏻
@@bravesfan714 If that was so, then how did PCUSA end up like this? You think PCA is safe from being liberalized? Read the Epistles. You think Apostle Paul left churches he founded in shambles?
Oh come on, same problem? You comparing Fiducia Supplicans with literally being kicked out of your church for not affirming and attending gay "marriages"? I'm all for sympathy, but it's so different in scale it may come across as mocking to those who know. FS is a perfectly orthodox document with the one and only critique that it's ambiguous at parts. Which allows what? Confusion and scandal at best, which though pretty bad, it's not outright heresy. Our critiques of the Church at large involve it being too soft on heretics, or too silent on topics of the week. There's zero indication the Church is going anywhere except where it stands. Rome has made clear that there won't be any deviations in teaching.
As a former United Methodist who fled that church I can totally sympathize with your situation. Only repentance and revival will save the church and our nation.
I pray for His swift return. I can see the sharp decline into apostasy and the suffering of this generation is so severe, but can we even begin to imagine the next? Or the one following? All of it fell apart in one generation it seems.
@kriegjaeger if you look closely, it wasn't accidental. Hidden behind the guise of righteousness, it was a calculated plot. Ever listened to Yuri Besminov? He was a propaganda specialist for the kgb that defected to Canada. He explained it all. The school was the church of liberalism. The good news is this isn't the first time satan has tried this trick and God has changed things at the last minute it would seem in generations before. Like the Jesus revolution, no body talks about the 1000s of hippies saved in the 1970s, it is practically completely unheard of now, but it happened. It is calculated and evil, but Don't give up hope is what I am saying
Can you please explain to me this. I was told gay people aren't bad but gay acts are bad but some heterosexual acts are bad if they aren't in the context of marriage but then gay people can't get married accoring to your religion Which means you are making it so THE ONE thing that makes it okay, they can't have? How is this fair?
@@bryanbaez4412it is mostly conservative like the pca, not even close to the liberalism and progressivism seen in the pcusa and other mainline denominations in the US
@@bryanbaez4412 the problems around here are that we have some churches that are not that ortodox in reformed tradition, sometimes being influenced by pentecostal and non-denominational churches
I just asked the head pastor at my church, Presbyterian Church of the Master, what PCOM's position would be if this passes. His response was "The session and pastors maintain and affirm the biblical understanding of God’s intention for human sexuality and standards for leadership in the church. "
A standard non-committal answer that even a gay pastor will give. Notice the vague phrase "God's intention". A gay-affirming pastor will say "God's intention is for two people who love and are committed to each other". I guarantee you that if you press the pastor to be clear on what "God's intention" means and he will get upset.
I'm so glad I found this video. I've been a Presbyterian for 70 yrs, and have been fed up with my PCUSA church for over 20 yrs. You guys are so right, and I agree with you on everything. At my age, I'm ready to just quit, stay home and read my Bible every Sunday. I get 100 times more inspiration doing this than watch pastors read their sermons, prayers, and even the benedictions. Calling God she, her and heavenly parent. I'd be glad if they kick me out. John Calvin and Knox would turn over in their graves. But I love your video, and good luck and God bless you. And thanks for seeing this problem! My church, if one would jump off the roof, everyone would follow!
Deuteronomy 20:19-20 “When you besiege a city a long time, to make war against it in order to capture it, you shall not destroy its trees by swinging an axe against them; for you may eat from them, and you shall not cut them down. For is the tree of the field a man, that it should be besieged by you? Only the trees which you know are not fruit trees you shall destroy and cut down, that you may construct siegeworks against the city that is making war with you until it falls."
@@laurentroland6847 It's certainly not the literal meaning (rules of warfare), but the secondary meaning (not intended by the human author, but revealed by the Spirit) Unfortunately, I also don't know what it's meant to be in relation to the video. These verses reminded Israelites that they were there to conquer the dens of evil, and to make these lands prosper. Collateral damage (even when it comes to trees) should be toned down to zero. Those good trees had the potential to give good fruit for the future. The only trees that could be cut down are those that won't ever give anything productive. That's an exception, not the rule, and it's only while the battle is ongoing. You COULD draw parallels to certain situations. Non-negotiable respect for the innocent, reverence to Creation, to be temperate our battles. But I can't think of anything that I could draw upon this particular situation. Redeemed Zoomer isn't going scorched earth on anyone, in fact he's saving the "good trees" through his strategy, and if he ever cuts anything(anyone) out it's the ones that "don't give fruit" Was this God exercising my Biblical analysis skills? Showing me an irrelevant passage and get my obsessive self to analyze it to death? Or did I miss something? God have mercy...
I wouldn't say the passage relates to this and the fact that the church has already conquered these people and that these people are now trying to change their Church
@@alonsoACR Its likely meaning to not be angered or vengeful of those in the church that played no hand in causing this dilemma as Philo, a Jewish scholar of the first century, cited this law, explaining that Yaweh (Yaweh being the name of god) thinks it "unjust that the anger which is excited against men should wreak itself on things which are innocent of all evil," as Yaweh is still waiting for the sheep like ones (Matt 25:32) to be found before the end comes.
i attend a fairly conservative catholic church in a politcally liberal and wealthy suburb of an american midwest city. our church is thriving but we are right next to methodist, presbyterian, and liberal lutheran churches which i doubt will be open in 25 years....very sad...but they have lots of nice flags
@@redeemedzoomer6053 lots of love from your Catholic brethren. We’re also starting to see the beginnings of some of this (Just look at what’s happening in Ireland), and hope we can prevent it before it truly damages His Holy Church. You are an inspiration to us all, keep fighting.
I’m not a Presbyterian but have love for my Christian brothers and sister worldwide. In my country of England the very same progressivism is taking control of our mainline Churchs. I stand with you in faith and prayer for your success in recapturing your church and prey also that we can do the same. Glory be to God.
Even though I’m not Presbyterian, I’ll be praying that God will strengthen you in this fight, and that the heresy of theological liberalism will forever be crushed like so many heresies throughout Church history. God bless you, my brother in Christ. Deus vult.
I thank God fhat our church (shoutout to all Pentecostals) none of the centries trends have affected our church and I prophesize that these churches will make a comeback, will be freed from this agenda and will be joyful and have faith in the lord throuought the process
This action tells me they are scared. Stay strong and you are in my prayers. Us traditional anglicans stand with your efforts. Have the courage of Peter, Paul, Athanasius, and Luther to stand for the truth!
I'm so proud of your fight, God willing the heretics and wolves will be revealed and removed. It's sad to see the state of your church, but it's incredibly inspiring to see you refuse to fold.
On the behalf of the First Presbyterian Church of Lambertville, New Jersey. We support your mission in trying to correct the PCUSA. May God bless and lead you.
I would go there, I like a lot of it's wisdom and standings. If they would behave biblically and would let go of all of the Roman idolatry and witchcraft ("transforming" bread and wine, for example).
Sending prayers from a non-dom brother in Christ. I pray that this wont be discouraging rather it will only shine Gods truth brighter. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Cor.:9-10 ESV. Peace be with you and your ministry. God bless yall because you hold true to what the Holy scripture teaches and don't give way to the worlds distractions. I hope my encouragement goes a long way, all glory to God.
Us, the Presbyterian Church of India-Mizoram Synod used to have a partnership with PCUSA since 1999, but unfortunately that partnership came to an end back in 2012 because of this particular reason. As said by one of the member, "Members of the SEC said the ordaining of gay ministers and consent to same-sex marriages were the principal reasons behind the fall out as it is was “against the Biblical truth”. “…We are in complete disagreement over such decisions that have serious practical ramifications. We hence have decided to end our partnership with them,” said Rev Malsawmtluanga, a member of the Mizoram Synod Executive Commitee. God bless you all
"Marriage is not just any relationship between human beings. It was established by the Creator with its own nature, essential properties and purpose. No ideology can erase from the human spirit the certainty that marriage exists solely between a man and a woman, who by mutual personal gift, proper and exclusive to themselves, tend toward the communion of their persons." Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger as Prefect for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith
@@mattd398 I believe God agree with me because his Bible agrees with me, if you don't agree with the Bible you have rejected Christianity and shouldn't pretend to be a Christian
@@potatoheadpokemario1931 Or you assume that what you believe aligns with 'the Bible.' So if you don't agree with the Bible, then a person isn't a Christian. That sucks since the Bible doesn't want to agree with itself, and should I agree the Bible and be able to beat my slaves/servants or whatever you want to call them? Or I can go buy slaves from the other nations?
I'm from Europe, so sadly i cannot join you guys in this important fight for the churchd directly, but i will support you all by means of prayer!🙏✝️🕊 "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled" Matthew 5:6

@@etruscanetwork the church does not need to be inclusive by cultural standards, it needs to hold to biblical ones. Jesus said not all would be saved, not all will know Him
@@etruscanetworkwhat’s the point of being in the church if you’re not going to follow its teachings? You can go be gay and “inclusive” but don’t force the mainline church to follow your beliefs when they don’t represent Christianity
@@Fede_uyz This seriously misreads the passage regarding the Bereans. The context for the Berean incident is found in Acts 17:1-10. When Paul and Silas initially visited the Macedonian city of Thessalonica, they began preaching and making converts, which led to conflict with some in the Jewish community: “And taking some wicked fellows of the rabble, they gathered a crowd, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people” (Acts 17:5). They then dragged Jason and some of the new Christians before the city authorities, charging them with sedition against Caesar (Acts 17:6-7). The situation was so alarming that the Thessalonian Christians hurriedly sent Paul and Silas away by night (when traveling was not safe) to the nearby city of Berea. The non-Christian Jews in Thessalonica remained so opposed to Paul that they sent men to pursue him to Berea and incite the crowds against him, forcing him to flee at once to Athens (Acts 17:13-15). That is the background against which the statement that the Bereans were more “noble” (other translations: “open-minded”) than the Thessalonians. The contrast is not between credulous Thessalonians, who accepted whatever Paul said without evidence, and skeptical Bereans, who demanded proof from Scripture. It is between actively hostile Thessalonians and Bereans who “received the word with all eagerness” (Acts 17:11). This is no prooftext for sola scriptura. Paul’s message did not include merely things found in the Old Testament Scriptures. It included the many new elements of the Christian faith. What the Bereans did was confirm the basic elements of his message (i.e., the fact that Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecy) and then proceeded to accept all the new, unwritten teachings that were part of it (e.g., baptism, the Eucharist, the inclusion of Gentiles in God’s people without circumcision).
You have an ally here in the Anglican Church, I will 100% be praying for the PCUSA!! God is sovereign, much love my brothers from here in Australia ❤️✝️📖❤️🔥
Hey, Redeemed Zoomer I attend a PCUSA church at home (I am away at college). I believe my church is on your map as well. One of my best friends was recently confirmed as an elder and I talked to him about this. I really hope this doesn't pass. I will continue the fight until I am kicked out.
Praying for all who profess faith and want to serve the Lord and love truth over the world. May your efforts turn away those who strive to glorify sin.
1:26 Ouch this hits hard. Can confirm, older left-wing folk (e.g. JK Rowling) and even myself as someone in gen z, even in a non-religious sense, we've been finding ourselves being called "alt-right" and the names that come with that for the exact same beliefs we were called "SJW" for only 10 years ago. And ironically, despite us not being true right-wing, only right-wing spaces accept us at all. I've tried my hardest to stay on the progressive train, but I simply had too many questions and seen how it affected both myself and others (e.g. with gender ideology, being encouraged to be anything other than normal, if you're just a tomboy it's a sign you're actually trans). But you're simply not allowed to question anything, or disagree with _one_ thing.
The tomboy/trans thing is incredibly real and incredibly sad. As much as progressive rhetoric likes to proclaim itself a champion of diversity, it often slams walls around people who behave in ways it deems discordant to its own set of dogmas (if a girl behaves in ways that aren't traditionally feminine, she must actually be a boy!). Also interestingly, the first thing you brought up happens a lot, and I find it actually has the effect of taking people who hold positions that are realistically moderate, and effectively forcing them into radicalization. A person who holds opinions that were normal 20 years ago would now be considered right-wing, and alienated from non right-wing spaces accordingly. Eventually, as the progressive ideology grows farther and farther from normalcy, the only groups that will even accept once-moderates will be extremists. Already, by holding the position that homosexuality is a sin according to Leviticus, you will find yourself rejected by leftists and moderates alike. And once you're a part of those groups, pretty much everything is on the table, including legitimately extreme positions.
@@FriarJoe66 Problem is though, the meaning of that has went under extreme changes. Now, if you even disagree that someone is a cat, you're accused of being conservative.
@@cheese-bg1xq I wouldn’t say the meanings have gone through extreme changes, they’ve just been forced to consider new developments. What progressive/conservative means is broadly consistent across time, so long as you’re not referring to specific groups that adopt those names.
I will say that it is not a minor theological problem… it strikes at the core of the image of God and what that means. There is a reason it effects other doctrines in a 1:1 correlation.
I pray for God to help my brothers in the faith to persevere against the threat of the enemy veiled as “progressivism”. From a redeemed atheist who found God and is joining the Coptic Orthodox Church. ✝️ God has given us a spirit of courage, bravery, and strength. Let us not fail.
I will pray for you brothers, I count myself blessed to be a part of a denomination that does not struggle with worldy waywardness. Hopefully you are able to stand against the tide of evildoers who are set against you.
As disturbing as this turn of events is, I have to admit it's kind of cool seeing you getting a bit fired up! This channel and movement have played a key part in helping ground my faith. You'll be in my prayers and I hope to be so bold when the day comes I must stand for my faith.
I pray for you brothers, may the Lord give you the strength and ultimately His will be done to fight this corruption; from a Lutheran brother in Christ.
This sort of thing (being successfully implemented and enforced) is the reason I left The Episcopal Church. I think a layman can still be a faithful Christian and an Episcopalian, but you can't be a faithful Christian Bishop, and you're probably going to be compromised even as a priest or a deacon.
The Presbyterian Church (USA) voted to allow same-gender marriages on 19 June 2014 during its 221st General Assembly, making it one of the largest Christian denominations in the world to openly accept same-sex unions.
I stand with Reconquista. The enemy will always try to push his agenda, but we are the ones standing against it. Here we stand, and here we declare war to the darkness. My prayers are with you. God bless!
I think it's the wrong angle to say "it's not effective" or "we're fighting for tradition." It doesn't matter how effective or traditional it is or isn't; we're fighting for the truth. God defines marriage. God defines sin. It isn't ambiguous. The "moderate" position on this was the progressive one all along.
