![The Disturbing But Surprising Wisdom of Ecclesiastes [Animated Explainer]](/img/n.gif)
My husband has been having an on and off again affair for years. I recently found out they have a 2 year old child together. He and I have no children of our own - we struggled to conceive for years. You can imagine the pain and heartache I'm going through. I struggle with forgiving him and the mistress who knew we were married. I'm angry, disapppointed, hurt, feel incompetent and many other things. He broke his oath to me and God. I feel hatres towards him, the side chick and the child. Doing what this video describes feels impossible for me right now. Impossible. I know intellectually that this is what God calls us to do, but my hurt is overwhelming. I'm praying and I'm not sure that God is listening.
God is always listening. He walks with you, asking to carry your desperately heavy burden - it's the letting it go that is so SO hard. So odd that we would find our greatest anguish and pain so very difficult to relinquish to Jesus - I know it was a massive struggle for me. I had no idea how liberating forgiveness would feel, but it honestly is like a huge weight lifting from us. I didn't say it was easy and giving it to Jesus doesn't make what has been done to you 'ok' - it isn't - but the Lord will take care of that. Please let Him take care of you and heal your shattered heart 🙏🏼❤️
We are honored and humbled that you would trust us with this information. However, because we are an animation studio without a pastoral staff, we are not equipped to provide counsel to individuals.
But we want you to know you are not alone. We receive many requests from those who are struggling to make sense of the world and God, and though we wish we could serve you in this way, it’s not something we have the resources or expertise to do well. We encourage you to reach out to the pastoral staff of your local church or talk to a licensed counselor, doctor, or trusted friend.
We also encourage you to spend time in the book of Psalms. This beautiful book recounts the poetic prayers and laments of God’s people, and we find that it can provide comfort and guidance in many different circumstances.
I'm praying for you today and if there's ever anything else we can pray for, feel free to share it with our prayer team directly at airtable.com/appsack7w8mJfJsKn/shrCF8j6509foubsH
I hope you feel strengthened and encouraged today-God loves you so much.
Dear Sister - guess what? You shared your sadness on this platform - God heard you. "Be still and know that our Father in heaven is at work. God bless you!
I can only speak for myself. A great wrong was done to me by someone I love and trusted, and that wrong still continues. I feel anger, hurt, and abused. My Christian responce is very different to the one I would have two years ago. My aim has been to feel the pain and walk in righteousness as best I can ,that means not accepting the abusive behaviour, not seeking revenge, trusting in God that he is on this journey with and will provide for me all I need. He provided Christian counselling. He also allowed me to understand that my value is in him, so self care boundaries and looking to God to protect my mental health and show me the way forward is important.
Over time in my heart I love the person who has been abusive. I now pray for deliverance for them as I now see them as bound by the chains of a demonic spirit. It has taken time but I can turn the other cheek because nothing they say or do can hurt me now. God has given me physical and spiritral distance. Counselling and pastoral care, prayer and the word have been an heavenly gift at a time of need. No child of God is inadequate when we trust him. We have trials and pain but In him we are blessed and a new creature. Please reach out for support .
I believe that when you find this video is the proof that God hear your cry and want to heal you, trust Him with all your heart
LOVING OUR ENEMIES IS NOT PLEASING OUR ENEMIES. JESUS LOVED THE PHARISEES BUT NEVER PLEASED THEM.
You missed the point. Jesus is more than about pleasing. He’s about redemption. His redemption was enough for you, me, and all pharisees who believe in the good news. A redeemed person does not count the sins or transgressions of others. A redeemed person points the way to the redeemer.
@@dannyg5400He does indeed. But what if the wrong is rejection and mockery of the gospel? Then we do not back down on the gospel, or “please” them for sake of comfort.
@@stonwall9065We dust off our feet and not cast our pearls to swine.
Just don’t lose the word of God in idolatry. Make sure you’re doing everything through unfailing love and praying. Even if you’re in danger GIVE ALL YOUR ANXIETIES TO GOD. And God will give you authority over the snakes and scorpions in your garden. Always be slow to anger and when you do use anger practice self control and discipline. I hope this message affirms you with clairvoyant and a unyielding sense of purpose. The battle is not yours it’s the lord. Your neighbors are not your children they’re Gods. Not your justice it’s gods goodness. Your sword should be Gods wrath. Always pray your enemies have your strength courage discipline and mercy when dealing with Gods wrath.
telling the truth is an act of love. You make yourself lots of enemies by telling the truth, yes it really doesn't please them, yet you do it out of love for the truth, not out of upholding some social status
I discovered that forgiveness is a choice at first, i still felt the anger and hurt but chose to forgive in Jesus name. The amazing thing is the forgiveness was also a letting go of the hurt. It was like taking an arrow out of a wound. Jesus moved into the space my choice opened, with love and healing. I had to forgive my Dad for abuse. Once I made the choice, with Jesus, he was able to show me the lies I’d learned about myself. Jesus was able to show me the truth of how he had created me. I was able to disconnect from the disfunctional family behaviours. Jesus became my Daddy and healed me. He showed me how nice and lovable I was, he (Jesus) likes me! I think choosing to forgive opened that door. But it can only be done with Jesus.
He forgives us our sins but also gives us his amazing ability to forgive others.
I still had a relationship with my father but he was no longer the one I took my worth from, Jesus is.
Let us all remember that forgiveness is a gift from God. We CANNOT forgive in our own strength. Only through the GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ through the POWER of Holy Spirit can we forgive those who have hurt us. We CAN go boldly to the throne of grace and ask God to give us virtue to do this❤
Agreed ❤
The trouble with what you say is that although it might be true in theory, it is not actually literally true. It is in fact possible to forgive, as Jesus told us to do. I know people who forgive truly and deeply without any evidence of divine grace at all. They are obeying Jesus without even believing in him.
Also remember that's cs lewis said 'if you have excuses you don't need forgiveness, true forgiveness comes when there is no excuses and you know EXACTLY what you did and did it on purpose.. . And are still forgiven... beautiful
@@Queezbo I believe that it is still God behind forgiveness, even though some might not acknowledge or be aware of it at all. It is known as God's common grace -as in Matthew 5:45 where it rains on the righteous and the unrighteous.
This is totally correct. That's why Peter begged: "Lord, give us more faith" immediately after Jesus encouraged them to forgive "up to 70 times".
I sinned so bad yesterday against someone I used to be friends with who turned on me. I picked a fight with her and bc nobody else likes her; i baited her. I threw rocks and hid my hands. Everyone consoled me and treated me as the victim. I was not. I asked GOD for forgiveness but I feel like 🗑️. This video hits home. yesterday I took a L. I really want to do better. Please pray for me , I’ll pray for you… Thanks.. (update) Thanks ALL my brothers and sisters in Christ who prayed for me and gave me wise counsel and encouraging words ; I apologized to her today, she actually acknowledged my apology… I appreciate ALL of you and I did pray for ALL of you like I said I would, no cap. GOD bless all of you ❤️ 🙏….
Why don't you go and apologize?
@@fulconandroadcone9488I agree, apologizing and telling that girl the truth would be better.
Sevenkings, try your best to make peace with her and leave the past behind the both of you.
God is good
You are blessed for acknowledging your wrongs as some ppl don’t. Ask God for forgiveness and for guidance. Don’t be so hard on yourself for God has a time for everything. We can only learn and grow thank God your heart to turn to what is right for God is a righteous God ❤
That hurts, but follow the Lord's leading on how to make it right. And sitting being quiet to preserve yourself while feeling guilty ain't the road to start traveling down. And don't believe the lie it's too late and let it slide. Be quick to reconcile. God will be with you.
You stoned her?
My manager at work became pregnant & after she had her child she arrived back..BUT with her boyfriend. His spirit made me angry how bossy, rude, arrogant & unmannerly he was. I stopped saying "GM" and ignored my coworkers. I even became rude and called off twice on the day OF- POINT IS, I had hate for them and disliked them with such a passion I shut down at work. I prayed about it, & the LORD put this video on my feed for a reason. God works in mysterious ways...I will humble myself after watching this. I will be in good cheer and try to love my brothers and sisters. I pray for everyone reading this.Jesus Is Real, God bless.
And I pray for His strength and grace upon you as you walk in obedience in Jesus ' name. Amen
Watch the bait of Satan by John bevere. It helped me overcome my hatred for my family & people that I will encounter in the future
I AGREE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS
Amen 🙏
🙏🏻 “Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.”
Colossians 3:23 NLT
When at work, work as though you were working for God. You will honour God, and He will honour you. Maybe not at this work, but one day He will honour you because you did what He told you to do so. God bless you! 🙏🏻
Every time I read the gospels, I just repeat to myself, "man we have failed."
But Jesus didn't.
@@ryanthescary more the reason to follow/obey the teachings/way of Jesus.
It makes us say to ourselves: Man we really need to stop listening to how the world says to live and succeed, and we have to know how Jesus wants us to succeed.
@@bummmbleqvb4025 losing the world instead of trying to win the world is an unpopular virtue
Oh I need this!!! I work with a man in his late 60s who is a sex addict. He tells other employees about the strippers and prostitutes he visits. He is constantly bringing single mothers home and takes advantage of them. He literally makes my skin crawl. I've been praying hard for him and to not be disgusted by him. I avoid him at all costs. Its a small office. I often turn around and see him staring at me. My blood pressure goes up. Its terrible but I have very hateful thoughts about him. Please pray for me!!❤ and him!!
As we pray for him please ask God to see him through Gods lens’s and not our own. It’s a game changer for God is love. Thank you for praying for him it’s what we can do as Gods children
Blessings ❤
God loves him… and hates his sin! God’s love can overcome even the most ingrained sinfulness! I pray that the presence of God in you will be STRONG in goodness, all power and might, in wisdom and generosity, in graciousness and kindness… that the work He began in you will continue so that the good work He ordained you to do will be done with joy!
It also might not be your responsibility to be a friend to this guy; maybe God will send someone else who can act as a mentor or brother figure and get him to re-think how he lives his life. Earnestly praying for his wellbeing is a very good example of loving him.
It might help to understand addiction. It usually results from trauma so something happened to him when he was a child and this is how he copes with the pain inside.
I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this. His behaviour is disgusting and unacceptable and should not be tolerated in the workplace. We are commanded to forgive however the Bible does not tell us to continue in relationships with people who have damaged us or are still damaging us, family or not. In fact, the Scriptures are full of teachings instructing us to leave relationships with wicked or evil people, to be separate from them, to shun, outcast, and purge them from our midst. Praying the HR at your workplace deals with this situation and does it quickly.
There's so many people skating on thin ice with me right now, please heavenly father help me😢
I pray and prophesy into your life by the Spirit of God. God will help you and He will turn your life around into its best and greatest version, in Jesus name, amen
What helps me is sometimes saying to myself when I have a negative encounter; "we are called to love people, not like them!"
It reminds me that, we can't like everyone's personalities/actions and vice versa, but I'd still help that person if they needed it and I'd still share the Gospel with them. It brings the focus back to whats important and helps me forgive and move on from the encounter
I'll recommended watching "the bait of Satan" by John bevere.
This is the prophecy about the second coming of Jesus
Zechariah 13:7
“Awake, sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me!” declares the LORD Almighty. “Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones.
The Shepherd here is Jesus.
John 10:11
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
This is the fulfillment of the prophecy.
Matthew 26:31
Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: “’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
This happened near 30 to 33 AD.
Hosea 6:1-2
Come, let us return to the LORD. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.
After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.
In prophecies 1day is equal to 1000 years. Which means after two thousand years Jesus will return again.
And on the third day which is the 3rd millennium, we will live in his sight. We all know we cannot see God's face and live on Earth. So it's the second coming of Jesus.
Luke 21:11 ►
There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
Matthew 24:6
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
We are the witnesses of all these things. From the death of Jesus to 2030 - 2033 there are 2000 years. Jesus is coming soon. Let's all repent and turn from our old ways and turn to the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
Peace and Love to you all
A verse to show about the Holy Trinity
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

The whole world will turn against Israel and not just Palestinians. Then know the end is near. This is a major sign to look for in the end times.

This is also something Bishop MarMari quoted in one of his sermons, “When someone slaps your right cheek turn to them your other cheek- doesn’t just necessarily mean to force them into treating you as an equal, but also you must choose to use the cheek that is cool, calm and hasn’t been hurt, that way you won’t retaliate using your struck cheek which is red, pampered, hot and heavy by pain. Always choose your other cheek rather than obeying to the one that is expecting you to harm one of God’s misbehaving children.
It’s an advantage in the spirit all the time. Always see stuff as spiritual warfare. And that’s what you use your love and prayers for.
Wooooaaaahhhh.
I'm putting this in my notes!
I'm glad the context of these commands is getting explained. I think it's important to note that these are civil cases, in which no laws were broken and no one was significantly harmed. God sends rain on the evil and the good, but He also punishes evil.
Always consequences, even for doing good!

@onthewayover we're all evil and deserved to be punished, but the good news is that God has given us an opportunity through the teachings of Jesus to turn from our evil ways and follow what Jesus commanded his followers to do to be good.
I always end up crying every time I watch a Bible Project vid 😭
I cringe
Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: May God CONTINUE TO BLESS YOUR MINDS, TEAMWORK, AND EFFORTS TO SPREADING THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST! AMEN!
The way the merchant was trying so hard to rebuild the temple broke my heart 😭😭
I’m only noticing now that there are more and more people listening to Jesus’ sermon as the series progresses! Brilliant detail!
I don't know if I can wait nearly two weeks for this. This one dude at work is livin' on borrowed time.
I feel ya on that one!
Read your bible then.
Pray brother/sister 😁
God’s word is powerful the Bible project dudes would want you to read the scriptures and pray to be free from our propensity to react to people from the sinful nature. 😊 and we can have that freedom right now. Ask Holy Spirit to fill you with his love and truth from the Bible. He is always present with us! He wants to guide you through all your emotions and circumstances 🙏🤗
Definitely go back and watch episode 4 again that will help forsure
Forgiveness doesn't come easily. I know that I'm not the only one struggling with this. Often it helps to imagine when Jesus was on the cross. Some people shook their heads mocking him. They knew nothing of him. What prayer he did on that cross keeps helping me persevere. Sometimes it's so harsh and hurts a lot. To be misunderstood, to be blamed for. To be despised. But that cannot be the reason that I can hate them or get angry toward them. I know Jesus did the opposite. I HOPE I CAN JUST THINK OF HIM through all this.❤ and looking forward to watch this!!
i have difficulty understanding why the tree of knowledge/good and evil was created. i have difficulty appreciating why a 'loving god' would put a thing such as that in the garden. why create temptation a thing that god would know would be the downfall of man upon creating it ...[?]
trauma has devastated my life as has not having good examples [of how to live] shown to me. my life atm is heavy after a lifetime of trauma and hardship.
i will persist in learning from gods word and will continue to take guidance from this and other channels but i wonder if i will ever be able to heal and wonder if i will ever feel at peace.
@@kk-qy4sc So, I think the tree of knowledge of good and evil was not inherently bad on it's own. It is that man disobey that led to sin. Both the temptation and the sin of man is as a result of God's will. God want those that serve him not robot. But I think this "theology" is not what you need with the story you shared.
I can't imagine what you're going through. I just want to say that you are heard. And God's hears you. He says that He will keep you in perfect peace if your mind is stay on Him (Ish 26:3). Keep trusting God as you said. I would also recommend that you take stock on the good things in your life. Write it down if possible. Appreciate God for that. Rejoice in it.
See the "bad" from a good standpoint and things might change. Don't compare yourself with others but compare your today with yesterday.
God bless you and give you guidance.
A brother in Christ.
@@kk-qy4scwhy did God create the sun moon and stars? Why did He create plant and animals? Why did He create the heavens and the earth? God knows everything and when God does a thing, it is good. Not because God does good things only but because ‘Everything’ that God does, is good. You do not know things like God knows things. Why did i decide to reply you? Who am i? Where am i from? Where was i born? When was i born? You do not know. But God knows all that and more. So instead of trying to bring God down to your level of knowledge so that He can answer your questions. Submit and accept His Ways and His Words. See, recognise , know that you do not know everything and that God knows everything. And that God is good because God is God. But i can tell you that, when you submit to His Ways and His Words. He will send you His Spirit and by His Spirit, everything will make sense and you will see and understand why all things happen as they do. I hope that answers your question?
@@kk-qy4sc but i also hear your suffering and so I pray and prophesy into your life by the Spirit of God. God will help you and He will turn your life around into its best and greatest version, in Jesus name, amen
@@David_Shittu to follow up to your thought. Is the thought that the tree was created isn't the point. To surcom to the fact that eve wanted to be equal to God or be God like. It's also about a lesson of having a free will.
One thing I like about the videos you guys make, is that you explain what biblical phrases meant in the context of ancient times. I always knew of the saying "Turn the other cheek." But only in this video did I learn of what that meant in the days when Christ walked the earth. So much care, planning and effort is put into these animations, and all of that is commendable.
Same here!
This episode premier at my 18th birthday, thank you Bible Project for your wonderful videos it realy helped me and my friends a lot to understand the Bible and God a little bit better with each of your videos. Best of luck to your team and God bless you.
Happy early birthday! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! It's great to hear our resources are impacting you in such a meaningful way.
Happy birthday🥳🥳have a great year ahead! May GOD Almighty bless you
Happy birthday to you
Yay! Happy birthday love!! 💖
happy birthday, I know this is late but i just wanted to acknowledge your birthday.
JESUS is the WAY, The TRUTH and the LIFE!
Because when your enemy does something hurtful to you, they want to make you feel & look like your less than human, but when you retaliate with Generosity, it makes them rethink their action and makes them realize that you are human, and that you are more than what they are trying to make you.
Glory to God, I met who saved my finances.
The first step to attaining wealth is figuring out your goaIs and risk toIerance - either on your own or with the heIp of a financiaI pIanner, and foIIowing through with an inteIIigent pIan, you wiII gain financiaI growth over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.
I am fortunate I made productive decisions that changed my finances (gathered over 1M in 2years) through my financiaI planner. Got my 2nd house in Feb, and hoping to retire soon.

Good to be here. Thanks and God bless
Maturing is Forgiving is easy what's hard is forgetting
We don't have to forget
If we ask God to help us be like Him..Micah 7:19... Its possible, but may take time
It's impossible for us to forget especially when something is really hurtful situations instead we choose to forgive of what we cannot forget, do not let the past take over you or overpower you. Have grace into yourself and dont let the past overpower
Forgiving can only be done by forgetting the offence. God had literally stated that when we ask for forgiveness and he gives it to us, he also forgets the very thing that we did. God has chosen to let go of every bad decision you have made the second you begged him to forgive you. Therefore when he also states “you must forgive others as I have forgiven you” we need to forget what may have happened or otherwise we aren’t actually forgiving that person, just choosing to be nice to them is different. Not forgetting what they’ve done actually keeps you and that other person disabled and unable to move forward in any improvement- When they either ask you to forgive them or you choose to forgive them first whoever forgives can now officially move forward with no knowledge of the past. You need to trust in them as an entirely new human being who can now actually change their ways and do better- you need to put that trust in their hands every time so that they can feel the permission to now be better- But also not because they deserve it but because God expects you to. 🙏❤️ I love you all very much, and I mean this wholeheartedly.
This reminds me of when Joseph wept so loudly when seeing his brothers in the flesh. The story of Joseph is so powerful about the struggle of overcoming trauma and how much forgiveness costs. I found the book Total Forgiveness by RT Kendall so helpful with this, it goes through the story of Joseph and links to other people's stories in the modern day. God bless you in your ongoing journey.

It is very hard to love people by ourselves and the most difficult thing in the world is loving our enemies ...but if we are able to pour from the grace of God, yes we can.
Now that makes sense! It kind of forces people to wonder if they are in the wrong. Quite an interesting way to go about it.
Y'all guys are doing good, guys. HalleluYAH Shalom.
This is the most convicting message series I’ve heard in a long time. It is a reminder of how good Jesus is and how much more growth I have in my Christian walk. It is easy to believe we have arrived in a mature Faith state and then we learn again that still Jesus calls us to go deeper.
Each video convicts me more of my need for growth in my faith walk but also grace that Jesus is also not done with me yet.
I’ve been studying the Bible for over 20 years and this series has brought some of these lessons to life in ways I’ve never had opened up to me before. Thank you for making these godly ideals so understandable and applicable. It really helps you see the wisdom in the ways of love when we really, truly live them.
Jesus I seek you everyday. Even when I feel like giving up I will keep faith. As a single mother. I’m struggling to make ends meet. My husband passed years ago. I have no one to turn to but you Lord JESUS. Both of my sons are special needs and require so much from me. Lord I’m afraid. Every month I struggle trying to provide for my children struggling to pay rent and to buy groceries. Lord help me and hear my prayers. Amen.
Make sure you get all the benefits you are entitled to.
Search for charities that offer grants and help.
I don't know what country you are speaking from but food banks offer help.
I have found if you find people going through the same stuff this will really help you.
Reaching out is humbling and hard.
Bless you, I feel your pain.
You are not alone.

Forgiveness is one of the main things I really struggle with as a Christian. This video is helping me to chip away at this resistance, thank you for making it!
Wow! God you heard my tears this morning. You had to because I was so hurt about by roommate ways but this message was for me to hear. Thank You Bible Project😢
If your roommate is abusive it is important to note that the Bible does not tell us to continue in relationships with people who have damaged us and are not repentant or are still damaging us, family or not. In fact, the Scriptures are full of teachings instructing us to leave relationships with wicked or evil people, to be separate from them, to shun, outcast, and purge them from our midst.
This is a cross we all have to carry, but we can't carry it ourselves. Forgiving someone who continues to hurt us is very hard but we must continue to ask God to help us carry this cross with us.
This is not a coincidence for i decided to isolate my self to everyone who did bad things to me. This is a reminder to me. Thank you
Keep your sanity in any situation. Mental health is not cheap.
Let God Fight ur battles. Accept u are in a storm an endure.Your faith will be rewarded
9:47 the use of the red line, and the fact that healing requires you to cross the line is so beautiful.
12:20 the line being washed away and the footsteps are immaculate
Oh Lord increase our strength
I have returned to Jesus after many years of seperation and ofteb get wary about this type of content. I get wary because the reason I was seperated from Him was due to others who claimed to love Jesus but only spread hatred, division.
But this video is so beautiful. The comments are so beautiful. I saw your reply to the woman in despair because of an affair and it was so HONEST!!! You admitted your limitations. That! That's the Love of Jesus Christ.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us! We are happy you are here and following along with us. It's great to hear our resources are impacting you in such a meaningful way.
For me, it’s “how do I interact with people who can’t stand me”
I pray for answers God, and please show me the way Jesus✝️
Amen 🙏🏼
That ending with their steps breaking the line of separation instead of the separation breaking their relation is so beautiful!!!
🙏🏽
Amen!!! So much power to that scene!
This is the prophecy about the second coming of Jesus
Zechariah 13:7
“Awake, sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me!” declares the LORD Almighty. “Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones.
The Shepherd here is Jesus.
John 10:11
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
This is the fulfillment of the prophecy.
Matthew 26:31
Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: “’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
This happened near 30 to 33 AD.
Hosea 6:1-2
Come, let us return to the LORD. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.
After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.
In prophecies 1day is equal to 1000 years. Which means after two thousand years Jesus will return again.
And on the third day which is the 3rd millennium, we will live in his sight. We all know we cannot see God's face and live on Earth. So it's the second coming of Jesus.
Luke 21:11 ►
There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
Matthew 24:6
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
We are the witnesses of all these things. From the death of Jesus to 2030 - 2033 there are 2000 years. Jesus is coming soon. Let's all repent and turn from our old ways and turn to the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
Peace and Love to you all
A verse to show about the Holy Trinity
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Everlasting Father?. There's your answer
The whole world will turn against Israel and not just Palestinians. Then know the end is near. This is a major sign to look for in the end times.
God bless you all
Please spread this message to the ends of the world.
I have a TH-cam channel which is focused on different Bible topics, so consider subscribing
Finally, after wrestling with why we should act this way in these examples, you have revealed a truth ive been seeking from these peaceful ideas from Jesus. I knew Christ was not calling us to to simply be submissive In an unjust world, but I never could articulate in my heart and mind the balance of how and why. You have finally told me in a way that is intuitive and I think will help a lot of Christians rebuild peace in a violent and broken world.
God bless your work and this channel. Let us rebuild peace by addressing injustice peacefully by turning the other cheek.
Having watched the Chosen season 4 ep 5 I think this one really strikes harder than ever
No words will completely express how moving this video was to me!
Keep up the good work!
Without chastisement, love is nothing. God chastens us because He loves us. And we should do the same with others out of a pure heart and care for their own will and their own future.
Jesus was badass
I know what it is like to shave a hard time forgiving. It is only by the Grace if God. You certainly have more reasons than many to cause difficulty in forgiving. Sometimes forgiving is a journey. You have to do it repeatedly every day. Little by little, bit by bit, and sometimes suddenly, God gives you a breakthrough. Persevere. God will get you there, even though it seems impossible.
Thank you so much for giving context to Jesus’s teaching. So many years listen to pastors speaking on this teaching with no context left me with feeling like something was missing to truly understand what Jesus was trying to teach. With the cultural context, the teaching is so much clearer to me now. God bless bible project!!
Bc it releases our soul from having a bitter root. John 8:36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
You will never look into the eyes of someone God does not Love.
❤️🔥
Amen
I love how the Bible Project shows the physical realm but also shows a glimpse of its effect in the spiritual realm with the contrast shifts within the two dimensions.
I just witness some new revelation about my children and family and I'm so grateful to God 🙏🌿 for it has revealed my need to share the gospel truth of Jesus Christ and he's mercy and grace for them
Agreed ❤
KEEP PREACHING THE WORD BROTHERS / SISTERS TRUTH AMEN 🙏❤️🙏 MUCH LOVE X
❤
I love you Jesus ❤
This is one of the hardest part of following and serving the living God, our nature can't easily understand and agree with this when the emotions are so powerful. Obedience is the only resource, submitting to others by submitting to him and trusting He will take care of the situation in the best possible way, better than us, in this life or in the next.
It's really hard.
I hope they find happiness and peacefulness so that the bitterness from inside should not reflect from their tongue.
Forgiveness is hard. But, I am finding it easier to with each forgiving of someone' actions against me. Christ did it, so must I. I've forgiven my father whom I hated ... it was free'ing. Christ sets us free. Pains me when people complain of another, I tell them to forgive, and they 'oh hell no' ... yeh, hell is the one place they will see if they cannot. If we do not forgive, God does not forgive us. So simply spelled out in the Our Father' prayer, to do His will, not our own.
Anyone who causes us pain , has to do with them and not us. So yes
Pray for unhealed people as they damage themselves more and create more suffering in their lives.
I love and worship the one true God and Jesus is my savior. More power to bible project.
Love this! So, so hard but it’s the truth. “but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” If you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on earth;”
1 Peter 1:15-17
These videos are such a blessing! Who knew that an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, meant to restore equal value not equal retribution. What would our world and faiths have become if we walked all these truths?
Just when I needed it. Thank you God! :>
By virtual I can attest to this principle being one of the truly most difficult to follow as a Christian in fact, this is one of those things that test you to see if truly you are what you claim you are
Your enemy is already self destructive . That's why Jesus said pray from them for they don't know what they are doing. He also said something about pearls and pigs , I think he also gave us a generous dose do and don't when it comes to people in the book of Proverbs.
Your videos are literally a Godsend. Thank you for all your organization does for the faith.
I’m excited. Jesus bless u all!❤❤️🔥💕🤍❤️💗🔥🩸of Jesus bless u all!
This is so smart. Instead of just gettin mad u make the other person mad by showing them they cant trouble you. this is absolute genius lol
Edit: you'll also make them miserable from the guilt of troubling someone so good to them. God is so dam smart
Those two close ups of the rain and footprints was incredible!
I finally understand this Bible's passage completely
Lord, have Mercy!!!❤
This is Kingdom living and this type of behavior is what furthers the Kingdom. Know it is seen by God and is using it to bring about reconciliation and redemption to His entire creation.
Grateful for the wisdom revealed in the scripture brought to life by the Bible Project!
Consider that God reconciled us to Himself through the blood of Christ. He forgave us of our sins, but He also restored us to relationship with Himself. That reconciliation required our repentance. Repentance is the key to any hopes for reconciliation in our estranged relationships today. So it's important to understand that you can forgive someone without resuming contact or picking a relationship back up. You can forgive someone even if you know you can never have the same relationship.
Depending on the circumstances, you may even need to avoid contact.
True …and, with the presence of the Holy Spirit empowering you, you can take up your own identity again as a child of God even after someone has broken you down to subhuman. You can walk in joy, peace and love. You can be empowered to command respect without manipulating other people... because you are secure in your identity as a son/daughter of the Living God!
Yes!
Amen
I needed this a lot. I have a friend who always annoys me in every way and for no reason, to them it's not "annoying" it's "fun". I struggle a lot from holding myself back from getting angry and aruptedly saying anything rude that will hurt or offend them because I have anger issues and I get angry easily . Today I almost lost it, it almost got out of hand but I was holding it all in, untill school ended and then this popped up on my feed! Thank you for sharing, I will try letting loose, forgive and forgetting...!
I like what you guys did with the musical theme of the sermon on the mount. Making it sound like things aren't quite right.
I just found this series by you guys but I just wanted to say, thank you guys for the hard work you put into clarifying the word of God. This video was fantastic and was a fantastic reminder from the sermon on the mount as well as a fantastic reminder on how we as Christians should live. I find that it can sometimes be really be easy to forget the teachings of Jesus as well the biblical writers so I really appreciate what you guys do and you do it in such a way that makes it really easy to understand so thank you guys and your entire team. May God bless you all and give you strength even in the midst of hard times to continue to do the incredible work that you guys do ❤
@@ChristianJune32002 indeed it is, why do you ask?
@@ryancadek Because I want people to believe in the biblical God. What is the Trinity?
@@ChristianJune32002 that God is 1, however there are 3 persons in that Godhead. Each has a different role that they play and all 3 are unique persons, however they are all one God. In both the New and Old testement we are told of how God is mutiple persons. In Genesis 1:26 we find God using describing words like "us" and "our" to describe God. The New Testement tells us that Jesus is God, including verses in which Jesus himself makes claims of being God, as well as verses that tell us that there is one God indicating that even at the time of the New Testement, the trinity was an idea acknowleged by the early Christians like St. Paul. The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of God within the bible and yet also is identified as more than just a thing, but a person that is seperate from the Father or the Son; He is identified as a Helper by Jesus, as one that can be Grieved in Ephesians. The bible does teach of a trinitarian God.
the animation in this is a masterpiece!
Masterfully done. Praise God. Brought me to tears multiple times. Especially when she turns the other cheek and the assailant pauses to consider whether or not she will do this terrible thing, then she does it, and the look of horror on her face at what she’d done. Wow. Such a powerful illustration. Thank you Bible Project! And of course an even bigger thanks to our Rabbi Jesus
You should make a video about those you know who have ill attention for you and how you deal with that as a Christian and how forgiveness comes to play. I always hear people saying you must forgive cuz that is what God would like. However, you can't lie or hide anything from God. God knows the pain you have in your heart and to forgive you must be genuine not simply saying it.
Definitely pray that God will help you to forgive truly in your heart and keep forgiving and praying until you truly mean what you say
They did in the podacsst
HAVE A NICE DAY !
Allen broke that down really nicely. The rain really was impactful too❤ great video
Creative love is the only path to real peace🙏
Wow! One of the best explanations of these topics from the Sermon on the Mount I've ever heard. Praise God for the work you do and God bless! ❤️🙏
I loved this! Truly, an explanation of wisdom that I didn’t even know. The behind the scenes was also super interesting. Thanks, guys!
Hello 👋 I need this TODAY! Seriously 😒
So incredible! Thank you for explaining these facets of God's heart in clear ways - adding the context of ancient-day really helped a lot too! The animation is beautiful and the symbol of the cracks/divides caused by hamrful/sin actions was powerful. Thank you all so much for what you do and your creative output in the name of reconciliation, healing, and Jesus' heart for all people. So beautiful. Keep it up!
Thank you so much for sharing this with us! We appreciate you and your encouragement today! It's great to hear our resources are impacting you in such a meaningful way.
I truly appreciate the way you guys also give historical context to teachings!!!
I needed this video. I was going through a hard time and even if Jesus really didn't mean what you guys said, it gave me a new meaning to how I treat my bosses who are making me feel oppressed. I value my integrity and honesty and, I was about to give it up until I saw this video... Just in time!!!
Praising God!!! He is SO good!
I can't wait for this to be released...such a powerful message and lesson to endure.
With a smile ❤❤❤❤❤
I love how these guys make the Bible and especially Jesus' teachings make sense. So often we have to know the culture of the time for Jesus' parables and teachings to understand His message. thank you BibleProject. God Bless you
beautifully made. As a fellow animator, I just LOVE what bible project does. I just started being a donator also :)
When the shadows of life seem insurmountable, seek God. He is by your side, ready to illuminate. 🌟
Beautiful animated story that teaches the Word of God. Keep on going brothers and sisters
Drop it early! Gotta see this
I bet we have to love them
i'll take that action: i bet you have to destroy your enemies at all costs and consume them to absorb their power.
My family and I love you, guys. Thanks for everything you do.
Thank you for your encouragement! We are so happy that we can be a resource for you and your family.
God is really using this vido to speak. I've heard all these stories and verses, but I never understood their full meaning. Now I need to think and pray on what "turning the other cheek" looks like for my situation.
The animation man!! Why is no one talking about it???
Several are. It's not being focused on, though, because while it is impressive, it isn't the point of the video.
Not religious at all, but the animation and character designs are incredible!
So true ❤
I’m really looking forward to this! Just started Bible Project videos and can’t wait! 🥹💕
