00:03 Sam explains his journey from being a Calvinist to changing his position on predestination and free will. 02:02 God desires the salvation of all but has decreed salvation only for the elect. 05:59 Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit, uttering words directed by the Holy Spirit. 08:03 Understanding the concept of visitation and salvation about free will. 12:34 Judas had the potential for salvation despite betrayal 14:40 Judas had the same authority and promise as the other disciples. 19:02 Persistent rebellion leads to being blotted out from The Living Book. 20:45 Importance of understanding the true context of Biblical passages 24:21 Interpretations of water concerning the spirit and birth explained 26:18 Jesus and his disciples baptized people in water before his death and resurrection. 29:55 Baptism is essential for being a good Christian. 31:45 Importance of obedience to God's law in determining true Christianity 35:20 Criteria for a true Christian - obeying the law of Christ 37:03 Listen more than you speak, especially to fellow Believers. 40:34 Seeking guidance from the Holy Spirit and being open to being corrected 42:26 Explanation of the unity of all things in Heaven and Earth through Christ. 46:19 Explaining the purpose of repentance and hell for those who reject Christ 48:08 Avoid rushing to judgment and settle for the first opinion. 52:13 Predestination and free will in Christianity 54:06 You have the freedom to act within the limitations of your nature. 57:58 God's knowledge of all possible universes and choices. 1:00:01 Explaining God's foreknowledge concerning free will and predestination.
@@olanrewajuadagba955 look into Sam. He has changed his religion and relationship with Christ way too many times. He shouldn’t be leading anyone. He is now a Roman Catholic. Strange man. I think he has become too full of himself and thus blinded.
@@JC_SGD the first sign of a believer is child like rest/faith. I find it hard to believe the Spirit would lead any man into anything other than mercy and truth and grace(Jesus). It’s all harlotry. Robes and priests and Mary and anything besides Christ in us and the way Paul/Jesus said to run things Is the whore. She doesn’t keep mercy and truth and has no grace(power of God to do his will/love). But wipes her mouth and says I have done no wrong. Proverbs warns about the whore churches a lot. “The whore church cannot say gold and silver I have none for she is rich beyond rich. But neither can they say get up and walk” money with no power.
@@Rileyed I have looked into Sam for many hours and I find his knowledge and insightfulness into religious texts full of wisdom and understanding. He may be a Roman Catholic and changed his following a lot but that is his journey. You can take inspiration from someone else's Journey, but why would your judgement of their Journey apply to your belief and your own Journey so heavily? You place too much of a task and weight on this one man and forget he is fallible like the rest of us; doesn't mean he doesn't have some knowledge or understanding of the truth that no one else has and you can learn! Everyone is blind to a certain extent and I would argue he is not leading people he is speaking to them and sharing his insight and understanding relative to the text. Instead, place it in Jesus for that is what his purpose was. Think for yourself and speak for yourself and your own interpretation of belief instead of someone's else's; just to attempt to prove or say they are false...
Original Zec 6:13 BES - "¹³And he shall receive power, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest on his right hand, and a peaceable counsel shall be between them both." ↪️Added↩️ Zec 6:13 KJV - "¹³Even he ↪️shall build the temple of the LORD;↩️ and ↪️he shall bear the glory,↩️ and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both."
Original Isaiah 49:6 BES - And he said to me, It is a great thing for thee to be called my servant, to establish the tribes of Jacob, and to recover the dispersion of Israel: behold, I have given thee for the covenant of a race, for a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation to the end of the earth. ↪️Added↩️ Isa 49:6 KJV - "⁶And he said, It is a ↪️light↩️ thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth."
Yeah, his recall is short of miraculous. He attributes it to the Holy Spirit giving him the gift. He knows different languages, multiple Bibles and their translations, and other religion's scriptures (Muslim doctrine.. Even the different beliefs within the Muslim community, Jehovah's witnesses, Judaism and probably more but those are what I'm aware of). It's absolutely incredible.
I have debated on this topic for more than 15 yrs. I went to a Christian college and predestination was THE theological view. I wrote several thesis on this matter. One of my simple arguments has been, is, and will be the fact that in the Bible, the word IF is over 1600 times (Obviously not all are used by God) yet, if we are pre destined and I do not have a say, the word IF should not be used by Gods PERIOD. If we are predestined, God cannot say "If you obey", "If you love me", "if you follow by decrees and commands". If is a CHOICE. I have the choice of doing or not doing something.
Yeah it’s basically if we always come to Christ for life and abide in Him(mercy and love) we will be made to be like Him; faith to faith; grace to grace.
@@chrisneeds6125 soil? What you are not understanding is that when something is IRRESISTIBLE, when something is PREDETERMINED there is no CHOICE. It does not matter if it seems as "an act of benevolence" (turning what is bad to good) which REGARDLESS, that change from a bad heart to a good heart has NOTHING to do with you. That bad heart cannot resist turning into a good heart therefore the use of terms that imply an option, a possibility, should not exist. Under predestination the only terms that fit are "this is what is going to happen", "this is what will happen" "you will obey" or "you will not". Basically there is no struggle. There is no battle. I am exactly what in his sovereignty he wants me to be. I believe as much as he wants me to. I pray for as long as he wants me to. I minister as he programmed me to. I sin as he directs me to, I harm and destroy because he commanded me to. There is NOTHING that I can do that is not by his design. He hates and loves without cause and effect. I cannot serve a God under those terms, that is EVIL.
@@chrisneeds6125 as Paul claims in Romans 8. For those he FOREKNEW, he PREDESTINED to be CONFORMED to the image of JESUS. the key is not that WE are predestined, the key to that verse is that the PATH, the PLAN, the way (through and by Jesus, to become like Jesus) to be transformed has been set. Meaning, the plan of salvation. Even more than that, it begins with FOREKNOWLEDGE. As in the case of Esau. He was rejected/hated by God before his birth (as God proclaimed) because he KNEW that Esau was going to reject God and would never truly care about his birth rights (which were a command instituted by God and were very important). Foreknowledge and predestination are 2 different things. I can already know what u will do but I am.not direction it, I'm not the one making u. Actually, go to Genesis 4. God reasons with Cain (under predestination and our inability to choose) and tells him, "hey, if you did this the right way, wouldn't I accept it"? And then tells him that sin is near him, tempting him but that he can resist it. Under the notion of everything being pre ordained, how does that make sense??? See, he is not telling Cain, u have a bad heart and u will do what u were meant to do. He tells him U KNOW what is right and if you did it I would accept you. Evil is around you but you CAN resist it. Those are all OPTIONS, CHOICE. Calvinism is just a philosophical interpretation and it doesn't fit scripture. It only fits if forced arbitrarily.
Sam has been instrumental in my walk with Christ. After being born again, most questions i have he has answered. I love when he gets into Apologetics and the fire he lights in my spirit... may God bless him more than he has already. 🙏
Sam is living proof. Theology degrees can be a sheer waste of money!!😂 The guy is living knowledge! I never met any professor in seminary or university with his overall command of the Bible. He respires and perspires it tirelessly!!
I am an orthodox Christian I would say the knowledge you have is spectacular. God bless you and protect you I always watch your videos with foul attention. Sorry for my English but I am Greek. Να είσαι πάντα ευλογημένος από τον Κύριο μας αμήν
God bless you Sam, I’m born again of water and spirit over 40 years now a senior in Christ. Enjoying the truth scriptures teaching. May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ continue to bless you and draw many to grow and learn the truth in him.
Thank you lord Jesus, for pouring out your knowledge and wisdom in this last days, God bless you and guide you always, Hossana, Hossana, Hossana to the Highest!!!
Sam, thank you for your passion for the Lord. Thank you Father, Son, Holy Spirit for bringing Sam into our social media to cleanse us from sins and convict us for our wrong doings. Thank you God for not giving up on us even though we are sinners. Praise and glory to you our Lord Jesus for dying for us, sinners, your slaves. 🙏🏻😔
Jesus cleansed you from your sins the moment you believed in Him as your Savior. Conviction of your lost and depraved state comes from the Holy Spirit at work in your life in response to God’s calling. You made it sound as if Sam was doing this through social media! I doubt you intended to say that, but it needed clarification in case an unbeliever read what you said.
A man with a human brain can't remember all Sam Shamoun remembers (all scripture without reading and very very fast(. This is not possible ........ JUST enlighted by God somebody can do what he does. Otherwise not. Be blessed Sam Shamoun and God to give you more and more ¬power - to help the people around you
I listen to his stuff and I am certainly blown away by his recall of the verse and location, but I do believe many normal people can and do recall what the Bible says. Especially if they are interested in understanding it. When he speaks I love to listen because I remember what the Bible says as a whole, I just don’t know the exact verse.
Definitley speaking with divine authority. There is a spirit of patience, gentleness, tolerance, humility before God - and no arrogance of the Pharisees that I could discern - whatsoever. And extremly gifted servant of God. We should carefully consider what he says.
Thanks brother sam, The Lord Holy Spirit is truly in you-so amazing and enlightened me a lot on many subjects…warmest regards from brother in faith in Indonesia. See you in Jesus’s kingdom later. God bless you always
Anytime I come across a biblical topic,interpretation,contentious doctine etc I always go to see how Sam views it,I'm not saying if he agrees with the doctrine then I will too because I don't always agree with him,but I go to him as he has phenomenal biblical knowledge and he backs up his point with scripture,I pray the Holy Spirit grants me the ability to learn even a fraction of his scripture awareness 😊❤
Sam, my respect for you in this study and setting has increased immensely. I respected you already for your debate skills with non-Christians, but this is the first I've seen you in the teaching/study setting with fellow Believers in Christ. God's grace and mercy be with you to continue on according to our Lord's will and guidance.
So many questions can be answered correctly if one knows the character of God as well as the word. Often times the character of God can reveal what the word doesn't say explicitly.
My theory is that God is the Shepherd and a Shepherd knows where his flock is going but sometimes we act on our own, and He comes and leads us back to His will. I can make it make sense in my head.
@@brettgray8339 You can be blotted out of the book of life, the Word says whom he did foreknow...I don't know if he knew me before or not, I don't see how any of us could know for sure.
Sam and I aren’t close friends, but this is my favorite video because I think he has arrived. I’m proud of you Sam and thankful for the work of the spirit in you.
Sam is justttt Amazing i am thankful to God for such group of people who have the clarify intelligence revelations, this is simply being led by Holy spirit, he has magnificent knowledge and the debates the way he does theres amazing clarity in his explanation
This guy is a wolf in sheep's clothes, he is very devious in bringing brothers and sisters saved by grace through faith back to the law. He may no longer be a Calvinist, but surely he didn't forget to back load works as a condition for salvation or it's proof, calling willy nilly Christians who rely on the work of Christ solely "false Christians". He is more dangerous than the Muslims he so vehemently opposes in his debates.
We are saved by grace but the law was never kept why we needed Jesus. The law is still a Guide. If we believe ,we love, we surrender. In surrender is obedience....obedience to what....? The devil is a believer so am I. I love my Father, faith without works is dead. I have faith, love is a verb. So with that. Are you a Christian who walks in love? Do you obey the law of Christ? Read the word for yourself and ask for guidance. Salvation does require something. Belief, is that not a work.?
I've heard christian men say he struggles knowing if he is saved or not and this is the source of his pain/fear. Calvinism can drive you mad. I'm glad he ditched it. But it seems he is going from one frying pan to another(Catholicism).
great video here bro you inplode my faith exponantialy being new and just started reading bibal few months a go was a bit hard to read not understanding thanks for this one
40:00 - this description of Calvinism’s system is perfect. I was led out of Calvinism in a very similar way. Eph 5:1. If I was to imitate God, and God died for all, loved all, and wanted all to be saved, I behave entirely different than if I am a 5 Point Calvinist. The command to imitate God through the example of Christ broke the system for me, and helped me see the genuine heart of God. I began to believe scripture instead of some system smart people erected.
JOHN 3:16-For God so Loved the Whole World 🌎 that HE Gave HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM, SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT ALL WOULD HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE LOVE ❤️ YOU-Y'ALL
Free will and predestination will always be a deep topic because we all can not decide in the place of God. It is rather difficult to think about how an omniscient God acts and makes decisions. If we go extreme on any sides there are always scriptures that seem to negate the others.
@@adecrown96 yes ever since Augustine brought his gnostic teachings to the church, people have been falling for that satanic teaching called Calvinism .
Sam you dropped the ball on the thief on the cross. Firstly the great commission is given after the thief died. Secondly the new covenant comes into effect After the death of the testator ( heb 9:15-17) the thief died under the old law. Not the new. So we are all now required to obey Jesus and His Apostles teaching which commands water baptism.mark 16:15-166,matt28:19-20 Acts 2:38,8:36-40, baptism is law of Christ....1cor9:21,gal 6:2
That translation watered down passages so much "to make it easier for people to understand" that meanings were changed in passages. You have to do your own comparison to find out. But even the removal of certain words takes away from the message that was meant to be in the passage.
@@luvpamelanewtonreally the NKJV? The NKJV says that Jesus fell from heaven and not Lucifer. Shining morning star,[a] how you have fallen from the heavens! You destroyer of nations, you have been cut down to the ground. Kjv How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations
@@noles9998 the morning star is a name for Lucifer, the same as Pharaohs believed themselves to be a god and referred to themselves as the morning and evening star. A false God
God hardened the heart of pharaoh because God wanted to show His Glory and Power. If God wanted Pharaoh to worship Him why did he continually harden his heart. God softens the heart for those who he wants to turn to him. God touched my heart with his Love that caused me to turn to Him because I was Predestined to become a follower of Christ. All the Glory goes to Christ! Not I but Christ in me the Hope of Glory! Amen! I prayed for you Brother Sam that you would receive the Full Love Knowledge and Wisdom in Christ! Amen! Hallelujah! Amen! Regardless if some are Predestined or some are not we should still continue to pray for others because we do not know who are are who are not Predestined. Amen! How Pleasent it is for us to Dwell as One. One Body One Spirit One Christ. Amen! Love your enemies in Christ! Amen!
Not so GOD did not just hardened pharaohs heart to begin with, at first it was ignorance, he failed to learn from history he forgot how GOD used joseph to save the Egyptians from famine exodus 1:8. then he hardened his heart on several occasions ,before later on GOD hardened his heart......the LORD intentions was for everyone to be saved he's a merciful GOD ...just obey his laws
Exodus Chapter 7 verses 1 - 5. Specifically verses 3 and 4. 3. And I will harden Pharaoh's heart and multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt. 4. But Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgements. Exodus Chapter 1 verse 8. Now there arose a new king under Egypt who knew not Joseph. Who knew not Joseph also implies not knowing his works. The main point is from Chapter 7 verse 3 focusing on the signs and wonders primarily. Amen
1st of all. The Pharaoh didn’t die, he wasn’t killed and so wasn’t damn to hell. 2nd, the Bible mentions that the Pharaoh’s heart hardened itself without God’s intervention 7 times, before God hardened his heart
Sam God Bless you. I do hope this reaches you, thank you for the wisdom that you are passing on. This inspires me to want to know the word better, so I can 1 be a better servant onto God but also to help my brothers and sisters in this wall, and to talk with others about the word and give deep teachings such as you are doing if it be Gods will for me life. God Bless you and thank you for taking out the time to do this. I pray the Lord blesses you abundantly for what you do.

How does your claim square with these verses down below? 👇👇👇 Revelation 13:8 NLT _And all the people who belong to this world worshiped the beast. They are the ones whose names were not written in the Book of Life that belongs to the Lamb who was slaughtered before the world was made._ Revelation 20:13-15 NLT _The sea gave up its dead, and death and the grave gave up their dead. And all were judged according to their deeds. [14] Then death and the grave were thrown into the lake of fire. This lake of fire is the second death.

1.debunked with zeus and Jesus is not the same in greek language. 2. Stop care about this bad joke and make you lose sleep because you are thinking they got us with this stupid joke. Cleary Jesus is not Zeus. In greek Jesus name is Ἰησοῦς Iēsoûs. Zeus is Ζεύς. The ancient Greek version of Zeus's name is Zef, while the more modern version of his name is Dias. 3. Jesus borned out from a virgin woman. Zeus parent chronos and rea and borned out from them sexually. Very different. The atheists can imagining things like muslim profit that was bewitched all they want. Stop losing your mind / "your sleep" because of this ridiculous joke.
So Sam is now teaching baptismal regeneration. To simply brush aside the thief on the cross is actually reading your theology into the text which you claim you are not doing. I believe your leaning towards the Catholic Church
He is. Recently he was teaching Mary was made sinless while she walked on the earth. He is going whole hog into Catholic teaching,(which is his right). What is bothersome to me is the way he attacks fellow christians who disagree with him.
@@dexterseamusgaming3338 My guess is he is going to become Orthodox. He rightfully says look at the context. But he refuses to use context in regards to the Catholic/Orthodoxy practices/beliefs. Hmmm.
@@lightning9279You are a liar! What crime did Our Lords Mother commit? If you accuse the vessel that Our Lord resided in before he was born of sin then you are accusing God of sin! Mary gave Jesus her blood her flesh in order for him to be born and become a man no other woman was has highly favored by God The Father to bare his Son! If God can blow life into her womb for his Son to reside in how hard can it be for God to absolve Mary of the Sin of Adam and Eve? That would be easy! God is not attracted to Sin! Sin is repelled by God!
@@Unique377 No Unique, not a liar. Just someone with different theology than you. You did a real nice job of summing up your position. Thank you. I have watched vids that said what you said but it took them an hour or more. 👍
Listening to San i realise i have very little knowledge of our holy book the Bible . During my time in catholic school in caticisum lessons I dont recall learning as much as i do listening to Sam.
I would say that because of “whosoever call upon the name of the lord shall be saved” I don’t think Baptism is required for SALVATION but it is a command for Christians to do so I think you nailed it on the head, Sam
Sam just amazes me with his knowledge but the word of God he truly has the holy spirit in him and has been given the gift of explaining a lot of what's in the Bible from a God view and like you said that we do not know and will never know until we are in heaven with him
Dear Brother Sam, - I want to Thank you for your Ministry. It's very beautiful how you are used by the Lord. Don't ever stop allowing the Lord to you you as a vessel of Honor before the Lord God almighty. I love how through God's word you show The Trinity, 3 persons one true God and how you prove that Jesus is God. I wanted to share with you where Satan was Tempting Jesus and tgen Jesus spoke back to Satan and said you cannot tempt the Lord your God, so Jesus spoke and said you cannot tempt me. I am the Lord who is the Lord? - Jesus is the Lord. Then he continued to say the Lord your God. Jesus said to Satan I am Jesus the Lord and I am your God, so Jesus spoke saying he is God. Also in the book of Psalm 94 verse 22 - It says But the Lord is my defense and my God. The word is marvelous revealing Jesus as God throughout the total Bible. Amen. We will be praying for you and your Ministry, so that you will continue being used by the Lord, so thousands may come to Salvation through Jesus Christ. - May the Lord bless you and keep you under his grace. God bless you Brother Sam. - Your brother in the Lord. - Frank
I was nervous clicking this video, but when you started with 1 Timothy 2:4 I praised God outloud! I'm so glad I've found your channel, I've tried to explain this to many people. In love he predestined us, because in his foreknowledge he sees all of our choices beforehand. Some will choose to love him others will reject him, he is sovereign and knows not just what will happen but what will happen under any and all circumstances. 1 Timothy 2:3-4 ESV [3] This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, [4] who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Peter 3:9 ESV [9] The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
I made peace with this question a long time ago. It's about time. Humans can only perceive time linearly. For us, there's a start and a finish, alpha and omega, yesterday and tomorrow. We can't pick and choose where we want to be in time. An old TV show (Farscape) addressed it like this. "Time Is". Just as the Lord said I am that I am. I'm not equating time with God, but I'm saying that to God, "Time IS". Yes, people have free will, and obviously, angels do as well, since some chose to fall. It's like comparing a CD to a tape. If you want to access something on a CD, you pick your spot and the player goes exactly to that spot. On a tape, you start wherever you are and then Play, Rewind, or Fast Forward to get where you want to be, going through or past everything in between. We're more like the tape, except we only have Play. God has Random Access to time. He doesn't make our choices, but He's always known what they would be.
This is why i follow sham even though he threw insults here and there because he admitted it that he in fact has an issue with his temper.You can see it in this session.I like how how i am becoming attentive to everythinhg he say.His temper is his cross.Let us pray for Sham.
Hot take: for all have sinned and fallen short all are predestined for Hell. It is the choice to repent, and seek His gift of salvation that changes our destiny.
There are many things I do not understand, but when this happens I know that He is G-d and it is normal that I do not understand absolutely everything. Enjoyed this video
Chosen 2 Thessalonians 2:13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: --- From the beginning has chosen you to salvation (through) sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth. God chose from the beginning to save all through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, through his death, burial, and resurrection. God chose to save everyone through Jesus Christ. Not all will accept God's provision, but it was provided for all.
You LOOK AT EVERYTHING and LEAVE NOTHING OUT! You do not take away from scripture. ALL is there by God! Every single word is important. YOU and I cannot safely LEAVE ANYTHING OUT or call it A NORM or AN EXCEPTION. It all FITS TOGETHER. If we need to read it again then we must read it again and leave nothing out! No picking and choosing what we want to use to fit OUR OWN thoughts. We must TAKE IT ALL IN and recognize things like metaphors, songs, poetry, etc. Understand the Bible by the Bible by prayer and through God's grace, asking God to give us understanding, knowing God is feeding us His word. I am reading the King James Version of the Bible., praying, and learning.
Isho gives free will to all humankind. It is our responsiblety to choos right. He paid the price for the sin that enter into the world. We can't thank Him enough for that. If we sin He forgive us in a moment we confes it but if we sin intentionally we would not forgive for that. Our Lord Yahawaha is always kind so He always make a way for those who are about to be out of light .
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah: We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah.
Perfect verse to reinforce brother Sam's answer concerning the thief on the cross not being baptized. “Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them, the one who also had leaned back against him during the supper and had said, “Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?” When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?” Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me!” So the saying spread abroad among the brothers that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?”” John 21:20-23 ESV
But the anointing which ye have received from Him abideth in you, and ye have no need that any man teach you. But as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in Him.
Our actions have limited free will, since we need God to breathe (think Jonah also) Our mind has limited free will, but some Our hearts have the most free will cause God isn’t creepy We can choose to love who we want to
This guy is great! John MacArthur said that if you speak in tongues then you are deceived and aren't saved. Calvinists are telling the Holy Spirit you don't do those things anymore. That is the unpardonable sin. Are saved yes but they won't be happy on this point.
