❤🙏🏿!
Prof Peckham is a blessing indeed.
The love of God is a well-explored theme in Christian theology. What is John's unique contribution in his books?
We need more teachings sir. Respect.
I have been let down many times,I'm homeless right now. My wife died of cancer in 2020. I have no family. My mother died of same kind of cancer when I was 13. I know Jesus very well. He has helped me many times but also hurt me many times. Christians are so self centered in churches they hurt people with their suspicion and judgemental attitude they just make people feel totally rejected.all they care about is there own nice lives. If you do express your pain they just try to shame you.
Thank you for the video God bless you. Please keep explaining these insights into God's word.
You're a good preacher. My question for you is, believe you also in Trinity? Do you know also that God's name is not Yahweh, but Yehovah/Jehovah?
It’s yhvh or yhwh. The names are just translations. Jehovah is translation from two names. Yahweh and Adonai.
@@jgpsalm23 It is never too late to use HIS right name. The name of God is really important. That was also one of the main reasons that Jesus was sent to earth by Jehovah God. “I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world. . . . I have made your name known to them and will make it known.”-JOHN 17:6, 26. He taught also his followers to pray: “Father, let your name be sanctified.”-Luke 11:2. The original Hebrew name of God re-discovered in 1,000 Bible manuscripts. On January 21, 2018, Bible Scholar Nehemia Gordon and his team of researchers discovered the 1,000th Hebrew Bible manuscript containing the original name of God in Hebrew with vowels. For two hundred years, scholars have believed based on Greek sources and conjecture that the Hebrew name of God was originally pronounced “Yahweh.” In late 2016, Gordon found never-translated traditional Jewish sources that explicitly identified the vowels of God’s name in Hebrew as “Yehovah.” This is similar to the English Jehovah, but with a “Y” and the emphasis on the final syllable.... Interestingly this is how it is in Original King James Bible of 1611 English
@jgpsalm23 nope. Yehovah/Jehovah is HIS name. Your are a smart guy. Don't be stupid !!!
Greetings teacher. I’m Achingale Moran and honored by what you do. I need a word of advice. I’m thinking of starting a Christian based podcast here in my country Cameroon; however, I’m so unaware of how the social media world works. Especially in terms of gaining a wider reach. In other words, I need direction on what it takes so that the videos don’t just pop up on the feeds of my friends but anyone and everyone. I’m not obsessed with the idea of followers or likes or comments, I don’t just want it to be limited to my friends. What are your thoughts on this sir?
Antinatalist and childfree ppl by choice problem solved and god approves of thier message in Ecclesiastes 4:2-3, words of wisdom from and to the wise. Its better to not have been. By not bringing a child here you can be saving someone from a world full of troubles,Trumps, Kamalas, Diddies and fools like me. 😆😆
In my opinion, determinism/Calvinism is a form of insanity. I mean this in the Most Respectful Way, Calvinism came out of the same France that produced the Descartes ridiculous discussion trying to prove that he exists ending up with the brilliant I think therefore I am. I’m sorry, but I’m very glad that Gio keeps underlining the intuitive truth. That determinism is repulsive. Interestingly, and I don’t mean this hyper critically I’ve always had a very uneasy feeling before even thinking about these issues whenever I listen to John piper. I’m glad I finally understand why I never liked any of the things I heard by him. It’s utterly clear that there’s no possible way the drama of human history, and the redemptive work of Jesus and the entire future prophecy makes any sense, unless there is libertarian free will
A prayer for me pastor
Amen
You say that "God will never let you down." What about the tens of billions who you say will be destroyed in hellfire? Didn't God let them down, when he could have easily saved them?
Dr. Peckham, what do you think about the assertion, "You can't trust God's promises if He doesn't always have His way."
Amen! I love these so much. Praise be to God!
Rigggght!
The globe, space, evolution, aliens, dinosaurs, gravity and the entire heliocentric model are all lies.
Oh wow, Jesus being Just and the Justifier had never hit like that before. Powerful.
Your teachings on the character of God are among the best I have found on TH-cam. Not being a trinitarian ,the way I view the cross is that God asked his son Jesus to make the sacrifice to save mankind which is no less loving than dying Himself and he did this in part because God cannot die. Several Bible verses, specifically 1 Timothy 1:17, 6:16; Psalm 90:2; Isaiah 40:28; and Romans 16:26, state that God is immortal. I believe that God and Jesus have distinct and separate wills which makes Jesus death for us even more amazing because Jesus obeyed his Father.
Love your channel and videos. Keep up the work. Just bought your most recent book, Why We Pray!
This series is great. Each episode takes one chapter from the book Theodicy of Love and JP goes in many datails. Much more than the other videos I've seen from JP.
This series is great. Each episode takes one chapter from the book Theodicy of Love and JP goes in many datails. Much more than the other videos I've seen from JP. As for this episode there is a great discussion on free will versus determinism. This is one of the most difficult issue in the Bible and among the Christians and theologians. The approach JP takes to prove that the Bible teaches (libertarian) free will is very interesting: he is posing the question, are the desires (is the will) of God in the Bible always fulfilled? Then he gives few examples proving that they are (it is) not. And because often human desires (will) are (is) different from God's that means that we have free will. I find this argumentation very convincing and persuasive. I have the book and am reading it, but these videos are helping me a lot in addition, because the book is academic.
Peckham seems to be good teacher. I love his insights.
I wish the Power Point presentation was more visible. It is pity that the camera does not show it all/most of the time. As for the talk, it is wonderful, I have all the books and videos of JP, who is one of my favorite authors. God bless you and protect you, John, often I am praying for you. Stoyan
Amen
Good treatment of a difficult subject.
I’m currently reading Why We Pray and learning so much and appreciate our Father even more. Thank you for this channel!
Great teachings and words of encouragement..
Unfortunately, the book is insanely expensive consideeing how short it is; at least per Amazon info
This is deep if you're very self reflective
I just bought Why We Pray and started reading it. I’m excited you started your own presence online. May God bless your ministry as you point to His love and character
AMEN AND AMEN 🙏
I’m binging on this channel and am hopeful that you will be one of far too few voices spreading the Truth! I just watched one of Richard Dawkins debates and wish he knew the truth of the real reason for the cross instead of his religious indoctrination from which he’s dedicated his life to combating Christianity.
Truth exists! Truth is Jesus! Pilot didn’t recognize the truth when he was looking at Him face to face. The Pharisees didn’t recognize the God they professed when they were looking at Him face to face. Satan didn’t recognize his self defeat when he exposed and revealed the truth as he led man to crucify Jesus! We recognize the Truth, love Him and will see Him face to face one day!
I’m reminded of Jesus looking up to heaven and thanking His Father for making it so simple that we could understand while the religious leaders were blinded to the Truth. How about Paul describing it as “foolishness” to the intellectual and a “stumbling stone” to the religious, but to us, Christ crucified is the “wisdom of God”! The Holy Spirit supernaturally drove you to get to the bottom of it all.
Wow! I first discovered you on “Hope at Night” with Anil Kanda. God drove you into His truth and you obeyed! Dr Richard Wormbrands famous book “Tortured for Christ” was followed by “Marx and Satan”. Much of what you’ve uncovered in searching for Gods truth was known by Marx in his search for Satans strategy and tactics in his war against God. Just as Satan inverts Gods words, Marx wrote “Ulanem” (an inversion of the name Emanuel) in which Marx states, “I will plunge mankind into the abyss” and “cast humanity into outer darkness”. Marx sought to do just that using the same tactics we see in Genesis 3. God is the “oppressor” and Satan seeks “justice” promising to open eyes, but delivers destruction and death. Keep up the great work and see how God uses your thirst for knowledge to fight Satanic Marxism gripping our world’s youth.
Nicely Done and thanks so much for this posting....a blessing, Pastor Gio and Dr. Peckham!
The intro is getting cut off.
Thank you for your work, Dr. Peckham!
In the future I’d love for Peckham to discuss the topic of the peccability of Christ, or any resources on that topic.
When I hear you talk about the Hermineutical circle with regards to Sloar Sriptura--I see the importance of the Holy Spirit and Prayer and Fasting along with the enlightenment of the Spirit of Prophecy. This is exactly what happened in 1844 during the Great Disappointment with William Miller. This is what the remnant out of the Millerite Movement through Divine Inspiration from Ellen White, hence the birth of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
I first heard you at GYC 2023 in Portland Oregon last year, I heard you on Hope@Night and I was just thinking how we need a platform where you can help us understand the mind and character of God. I just stumbled on this. I have great appreciation for your apoplectics and the clarity with which you disseminate the word of God to help up understand God better. I love Hope@Night and 2nd to it, I have subscribed to your channel and believe it to be providential. God bless you and your family and this channel.❤🙏🏿☝🏿☝🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿✝️☮️🕊⚘️⚘️⚘️
God isn't evil because a god doesn't exist. But when I speak about the evil of forced birth christians I am speaking about what the majority believes not what all christians believe. Just the very fact that not all christians are even close to being on the same page shows the obvious lie of christ. Which leads to the following truths of this post in which no christian can refute! If hell is real then abortion is the most humane thing that could ever happen to any potential human being ever! The risk of eternal torment if true will always outweigh bringing any finite life into this world. So how insane is a religion that makes human extinction the best option to human suffering? So the question for forced birth extremists is which is it? Do you honestly believe hell is real or is the bible lying? Are you ignorant to what eternal conscious torment is? Are you in denial that exponentially more people will suffer for eternity than claim a life in your heaven belief? Or do you just disregard and hate conscious life and don't care about those who will suffer for eternity? There will never be a hate as great as those that believe in hell yet want to force more births so that more will end up in eternal torment. Most forced birth christians agree that an aborted fetus would go to heaven...which would guarantee that they would be saved from eternal conscious suffering in hell! In fact, the majority of the world should have wished to have been aborted if Mark 9:42-48 is true. And this flawed thinking by the so called pro-life movement and Christians is what makes them so dangerous and showcases their evil hypocrisy. They think they are moral but are far from it! They place the worth of a non-conscious being over the well being of every human on the planet. You see this in their support of Trump's authoritarianism, supporting those that do nothing about climate change or gun violence, supporting those that do nothing about America's unsustainable health care costs, supporting those that give tax breaks to billionaires at the expense of the poor and middle class and forcing raped 10 year old little girls to give birth. The pure hatred for all conscious life is the foundation of christians as shown by their real world actions, words and beliefs.
Thank you God for letting this podcast cross my eyes! This professor is wise and extremely knowledgeable. Wow!
This is so profound and helpful. Thank you so much, Professor..
Amen!
Insightful. Quite a good treatment of the “rules of engagement” framework.
Amen
Jesus is a prophet ( Luke 24:19). So he is not God. If you deny this that means your bible is confirmed corrupted
Jesus is the Word of God… thus he is what we need…. Light of the world, the good shepherd that laid his life for us (God incarnate- only God can redeem his own creation from sin), man can’t be enough because we have inequity we are sinful by nature due to the fall of Adam as man is from his seed… Our bible states that everything written in it is from God thus no word is written out of context.. Jesus is the way, truth and life… He is Yeshua Hamashiac and he is Lord .. He is coming soon the Lion of the tribe of Judah will be revealed to all inhabitants of this universe… whether you believe or not the bible says Everyone will bow down to him because he is the Way the Truth and the Life after this one…. Open your heart for we speak and pray about what we have seen and know… we pray to the one who walks with us each day and guides us through righteous paths of life.. seek him and he will reveal himself to you and this will cause you to repent and acknowledge that He is who HE says he His….
Well, your failure to read the Bible like the Bible is the reason you can arrive at that conclusion...what happened to John 1...I mean the whole chapter...
Little knowledge is dangerous
I needed to hear this
The challenge is how to recognize and define "rules of engagement." Can you talk more about it?
