Why You Should Boast (In Your Brokenness and Freedom) (feat. Dr. Andrew Swafford)

- Some people hesitate to voice their victories and achievements in their faith journey. Thinking you might appear prideful or that your success can shame others still struggling, it can seem ungrateful or inappropriate to share your story of freedom.
Today, Bobby Angel and Dr. Andrew Swafford remind us that if we boast, we boast in Christ. Sometimes the most helpful aid is encouragement and hope when struggling with various addictions and sins. This hope comes from sharing Christ’s victory in us. Angel and Swafford remind us that the call to greatness pushes the broken forward, and celebrating the achievements of our brothers and sisters helps us along this journey to sainthood.

10:06 “He is King, He has conquered...He wants to divinize you, He wants to transfigure you.” It is so nice to have a guy group that supports one another in holiness. I enjoyed your 'What We Believe' and 'Romans' programs. Victory: I am about to begin a diaconate program. God bless! 😄

3:24 Hello, Jackie! :D
You make it sound so easy. What if you have no "Brothers" to talk to?
If you have no brothers to talk to… you can always talk to Mary, your heavenly mother. Find someplace real quiet and just talk to her. Her heart is always open and listening. Do this every day and you will discover something you never knew before.
@@Rich.- Thank you. I will do this.
I know the alone feeling, along with the advice to talk to the Blessed Virgin, pray for God to put "brothers" in your life to talk to. You can do it!
Freedom in being comfortable with the severity of our disappointments and to share our deliverance with others
Sweet Holy Spirit guide us❤️🩹
I've had plenty of people who appreciate a story of hope or faithful advice. Yet there are always those who've despised it and only wanted me to commiserate with them or even be agreeable to their thoughts. They wanted to only talk about feeling defeated, wanted to vent, didn't want advice. They say they only needed quiet sympathy. Those people are very difficult to befriend, and a few have disconnected friendships because I wanted to offer hope and another perspective. Any advice about being with people who drain you with this kind of negativity? Is it Christian to be silent in matters where Jesus offered a better way, or speak up at risk of friendship? (obviously a whole other can of worms if it's your adult child doing this)
As a side comment, these people in my life that left our friendship are committing frequent gossip and slander, adultery or fornication, and are very prideful.
THE GOSPEL
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also
ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
- 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 KJV
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. - John 15:13 KJV
SAVALATION
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
- John 3:16 KJV
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:17
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
- John 14:6 KJV
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12
For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. Romans 5:10
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. - Isaiah 53:5
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
- Mark 1:15 KJV
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
- John 3:36 KJV
Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began. 2 Timothy 1:9
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Luke 19:10
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mark 16:16
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 1 Corinthians 15:22
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:7-8
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. John 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
- Romans 10:9-11 KJV
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
- Romans 10:13 KJV
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16
