- People are uncomfortable talking or even thinking about death-yet it will happen to each of us at some point. Teaching from Psalm 90, Alistair Begg contrasts our brief lives with God’s eternity and reminds us that we die because we rebel against His righteous ways. How can we prepare to meet a holy God? Only by trusting in the provision He has made in Christ. As believers rest in His mercy and grace, we gain wisdom to number our days aright.
Scripture: Psalm 90
Preached: May 22, 2016

❤ Alistair Begg ✝️ Not too many preach Christian wisdom and love like this man. I will happily learn from this man until my days end. Thank you Parkside, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Alistair Begg is but a man. Follow Jesus, not Alistair. He is fallible.
Praise be to God and Lord Jesus Christ for continuing to work through people like Alistair Begg. Life is too short to be wasted on bashing others and pointing out things that don't align with our way of thinking while dismissing the fact that we all need God's grace and forgiveness. Spread the Gospel and let God be the Savior or the Judge as you continue focusing on yourself being conformed to the image of Christ, growing in love and forgiveness.

Amen. Christianity is not about doctrine, theological complexity or using the Bible to criticize others with (especially your own brethren), but rather conformity to the image of Jesus Christ. The demands of the Christian life really is about selfless love. Anyone who manifests this genuine Christian love, does so because of the transforming work of God within their lives and consequently whoever does not love in this way does not know God. This is loud and clear in (1st John 4:7-8; Beloved let us love one another for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God for God is love.)... Have a blessed day.

@@verasmith3975 It's amazing how God uses negative and complicated situations to demonstrate His wisdom and glory (Gen.50:20; you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good). One day we'll all be able to personally bow our knee to Him and worship Him like never before. God bless you and have a blessed day.
Perfectly stated !!
I thank God for Alistair's faithful preaching and ministry.
The Lord bless and keep you Aistair
I like the way this man of Scripture, character, obedience, moves daily onward, leading many to the Throne!

Amen, God bless this message and the messenger.Amen.
We drove by a cemetery and my 5 y/o granddaughter said "That's where the dead people live!".
Amen
This reminds me of a little girl in my neighborhood (maybe about 4 years old) who saw my Bible and said, "That's the book where Jesus lives."

I have loved and benefitted from pastor Alistair Begg’s teaching for many years. I wish I could visit Parkside. I want Pastor Begg to know I pray for him: for continued wisdom, grace and protection for him and his family. His quiet courage, compassion and humility is an example to us all.
❤
Amen!🧡
the brevity of life , now is the time , thankyou so much Pastor Begg for always reminding us of what life is about , and life is also about death .
God bless you Alistair! Know that you make a difference to so many of us. Your words bring clear understanding to His words. Best wishes from the west coast of Vancouver Island, Sooke, B.C.
Thank you, Pastor Begg, for your knowledge and opinions! Your wisdom of the Bible is extreme and unshaken. I have been following you for a decade at least…and will continue supporting your ministry. MY FAMILY SEES CHRIST IN YOU!
❤
Thank You for preaching the truth. Helps me to understand more clearly.
TY pastor Begg, cheers all & God bless ! ❤
He only is my rock and my salvation:
he is my defense; I shall not be moved.
Psalm 62:6 - KJV ❤
God has blessed you with His great wisdom and discernment that all people need to hear. I look forward to watching/listening to your sermons each week. I say thank you from Payson, AZ.
Your sermons have been a great source of comfort to me. I have learned so much about the Bible and living the Christian life from your messages. Never let the trials of life to discourage you!
The reformed community should be ashamed of how they’re treating Alister, literally proving his point
Well the problem stars exactly there, being "reformed"
reformed versus what?
The "reformed community" should be ashamed of treating Alistair with love?
Proverbs 27
5 Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
9 Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.
17 Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.
I wonder if this ‘controversy’ is going to be the beginning of a split to reform Christians like how people left the Catholic Church.
All I know is if I was gay and about to get married to my gay friend and I saw Alister Begg sitting on the front row of my wedding - I would absolutely throw up.
I would be begging for God to get me out of my sin and I would 100% know God would rescue me in a special ops way. It would have to be special because He would have to be so gentle with me as I would not want to leave an addictive lifestyle at the same time I’d want to get out asap.
I would have zero doubt God would deliver me even though I would have no idea how He would rescue me.
That is who Alister Begg is to me.
Not every pastor, Christian friend or famous Christian author would give me this reaction.
Point of Alister’s advice is very specific to the grandmother. I agree with Alister that not everyone should go to a trans wedding. Having your own relationship with God and following Him is the point of Alister’s advice.
@@amyfornear a split away from the true bible believing church to the endtimes false religion, a globalist politically correct, social justice, woke church. Stay far away from that.
Thanks Pastor Begg, makes me think of those who have gone before us in the most saving faith in our good Lord Jesus Christ who lives and reigns with us forever. Love you , Jesus saves
Ecc. 7:4... 1 of my Veres.. LIKE THEM 😅..
TX YOU PASTOR BEGG..
REMAIN STEADFAST.

How wonderful to listen to a pastor who holds forth the words of Scripture and then goes on to explain the text in terms of Biblical truths. Not what do I think or what does the establishment expect me to say the Bible says! Little wonder that he has faced such backlash. As Paul once said "I would have been freed, but God ordained that I go to Rome". Thank you Pastor Begg - I continue to pray for you.
I respect the wisdom of Alistair Begg. He speaks truth with great wisdom. ❤
Thankyou my brother! I love to listen to you and the truth! ❤❤
The Bible Is So Wonderfully Clear.
We will all have new bodies when we are with Jesus in heaven.
Amen. I am not my own ,I have been bought with a great price, the death an d resurrection of Christ Jesus. In Christ Jesus I move and have my being. Thank the Lord for all of his goodness.
Amen! Great word from God’s servant
I thought I was the only one who visited cemeteries... they are a great reminder that our time in this world is short
What a wonderful way to offer God's Eternal love life and home forever ❤thank you Alastair ❤
Praise God for drawing me to The Savior at a young age. Soon after I saw my little cousin die, then my three year old son when I was 29 and my oldest son when I was 59. I've always praised him for my mortality. I so look forward to seeing my Savior! My Comforter! My Sure Foundation! My God!
Your teaching has been a wonderful blessing to me. I am continuing to learn more about the Bible and how to live. Thank you pastor Begg for your help to me. Love to you and your family❤
A blessing from God, Pastor Begg! Thank you!
God Bless you 🙏
Praying for you to be strong during the trials of your life at this time.
So often Christians kick each other when they are down, may God lift you up during this trial and make you stronger 💖2/14/24
I've always enjoyed your wisdom and teachings, I will continue to listen and pray for you 🙏❤️
Wonderful to see you trusting in the living God,to sustain and protect you,from all the unloving false teachers,who use doctrine out of context,without the Holy Spirits permission, to judge and condemn you falsely,when you were obeying Gods love in your heart,Im sad for them they have left their first love,if they ever had it,and replaced it with ,fame,prestige, and love of money,,if you spend the money on yourself and not on soul winning,thats proof you love money,,Gods says you cant love him,if you love money,so these false teachers get angry because all they have is self righteousness,and no love,so they attack anyone who has Christs love in their heart,,because they dont,,Jesus said i will spew them out of my mouth,he is talking about teachers in lukewarm endtime church,,,he is not talking about unbelievers,or sodomites,but fake tickling the ears teachers and the ones who listen to them,,,,,,they that are Led by Gods Spirit are the sons and daughters of God,,,,,this is the only christian life you can find in the new testament,,do you think Christ Spirit lives in our heart ,so we can ignore him,,ive got a translation of your book God,,i dont need you anymore?.unless im in trouble or inneed,,then ill give you a long distant call inheaven,while ignoring ,,the indwelling living God ,who has joined his spirit with our spirit,and sealed us with himself ,now that is love,,,false teachers please get out of your internet throne and go and rescue some real sodomites,with Gods love,mercy,truth,for this is well pleasing to God,the whole of heaven rejoice over one,sodomite and sinner who is saved,,heaven dosent rejoice over one of your messages or sermons you preach,no matter how good you think you are?..repent soon false teachers,,,,then apologise to Christ for hating his message of love and mercy,then to mr begg,for hating a faithful loving preacher of truth in context,,which you are not and havent done,,, ,Christ message to you when you see him will be much more severe and powerfull rebuke than mine,,ill pray for you all,,,,,old jail missionary saint,70 years old still rescueing sodomies,and any sinner who will listen,,,
someone forgot they are a sinner saved by grace and Judge not that you be not judged, for with what measure you judge you shall be judged. Do you really think the Lord is pleased with your words?(which were too many) 70 years old and never learned to forgive? sad
Amen. Some people forget that Christianity is not merely about doctrine and using God's word for pointing out every word that doesn't align with their way of thinking but is summed up in one law: Love. He who knows how to love knows all the laws of God. Pharisees will spend their limited days on earth calling out other people's flaws not realizing how desperately they need to repent themselves.
Amen ❤
My only regret is that I have only just a few years ago began to listen to your teaching, God bless you
16:55 yes! That’s the truth!
We will all be together by and by Palms 90 in Christ Jesus ❤
A.B. is at the umpteenth time teaching us about his very loved Hitchens, the one who has all his life had almost a madness to get a microphone so he could spew his animosity re all good that is and comes from God. All of his congregation seems to be there. My last, final word.
This was very appropriate for me. Thank you.

Got a question. How can someone be accused of supporting something that does not exist in the eyes of God. (ie: a gay wedding).?
By going to, and celebrating a "gay wedding".
@stevemeyers4898 - that was my question as well! It's NOT a wedding so nothing to celebrate and nothing to condone

Is it aright for a Christian to be cremated? I find it difficult to accept, but Traditional funerals are just too expensive these days!
From all my 📚 s ..We should NOT be cremated..
Have a Joyous day in THE STRENGTH OF THE LORD
This body is passing away, and we will have a new body. What happens to this body will not make a difference in the end.
My pastor father was cremated and God can certainly raise up a new body. How about all His saints who were cremated by fire for their faith! Hus, Latimer and Ridley, Savonarola, Wycliffe,Tyndale. God bless you and see you in heaven someday :-)
If you can believe that a spirit was put into the womb of a virgin to become the perfect Lamb of God, who willingly gave His fleshly life so that all who believe can have everlasting life . . . If you can believe that all of creation was brought into being by the utterance of a Word . . .
"ashes to ashes, dust to dust" - cremation is just getting your flesh to dust faster (read in Ezekiel about the bones)
There is nothing that God cannot do, trust in His Son, don't put limitations on God.
@@sydney.g.sloangammagee8181 Thank you so much for that encouragement!
