      @Days of Noah like you said the Catholics use the Rosary and repeat the hail mary prayer over and over again. Now that's vain repetition because they are just repeating the same prayer over and over again without it really coming from their own hearts. It's just words with no meaning behind them. That's why Jesus said do not pray with vain repetition... it's not the repetition that's the problem it's the lost of emotion when you repeat something that is the problem....44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. (Matthew 26:44)

      @Days of Noah you said it's not biblical but if you want to get physically strong and stay in shape you know what you need to do. That's not biblical either but it's common sense knowledge. Do you not know that just like you can get spiritually strong and physically strong, you can also get mentally strong?

      Yeshua means Salvation. Our Savior's name is truely Yeshua. The original Holy Word was written in Hebrew before being translated to Greek. The Greek translators changed His beautiful name, Yeshua, to Jesus.
      Still to this day when the original Hebraic Old Testament/Tanak is read the word for Salvation is Yeshua.

      Yeshua is correct.
      Yahweh isn't found in the original writtings.
      Yeshua is still to this day written as the word meaning salvation in the Hebrew Tanak.

      People who wish to dispute the Biblical use of the Name for our Saviour, ought to consult the Holy Spirit regarding the matter, for it is with Him that they have a controversy.
      After all it was the Holy Spirit that inspired the New Testament writers to write it in the Greek language.
      It was inspired by the living Word of God, "Jesus Christ," through inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
      Inspiration which caused the New Testament to be written in Greek, so that it would be profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness.
      Not only this, but being inspired by the Holy Spirit, it also caused the names of Jesus, and of God, as well as the various titles to be written in the GREEK language-not Hebrew.
      "And FURTHER, much of the New Testament contains quotations or citations from the Old Testament, and wherever those Old Testament passages contained the names or titles of God, the Holy Spirit inspired them to be written into the New Testament in the GREEK language.
      One cannot surely suggest that the Holy Spirit got it wrong on so many accounts, for that is the suggestion when one advocates changing the Sure Word of God, to suit the teachings and doctrines of men.
      It is by faith that we are saved [Romans 4:16; I John 5:4] and it is by the Word of God that we find it [Romans 10:17]. Therefore we know that it is of utmost importance, for without it, it is impossible to please God.
      For the reason, that "whatsoever is not of faith is sin" (Rom. 14:23), and of course, sin cannot please God.
      Those of you who choose to do so may feel free to use the Hebrew name yourself, if however, you suggest that I cannot use the Greek names as presented in the Scriptures without jeopardising my destiny, then you must present proof positive that the New Testament was originally inspired, and written in the Hebrew language.

      @God's truth destroys big-tech Jesus wins You are really confused and full of fake and unrightous judgment.
      Messiah Yeshua/Jesus walked as a jew for He is The Lion of Tribe of Judah. His chosen people are Israel. He came to die for 2 sheepfolds.
      The first sheepfold is the jewish hebrew
      sheepfold.
      The second sheepfold is the gentile sheepfold.
      The 2 sheepfolds become one in Him.
      All who call upon His Name are saved by grace through faith - not of works - it is a gift of our Father, not of ourselves, lest any man should boast.
      It is not your place to attach judgment to anyone's soul.
      Only our Righteous King is judge as He shed His blood for our redemption.
      I forgive you for your false and totally unfounded judgement against me for I speak the truth to you in love.

      but it is true. it's the 'american 'gospel'' of God exists to provide you with health, wealth, and happiness. Ray is using the title in irony because as most of America claims to be Christian and hates the actual Gospel, yet has no issue with Joel Osteen as he does not proclaim the Gospel, so Joel Osteen is their 'pastor' and the head of their 'church' is not Christ.

    My Father sent my Big Brother Yeshua to bring me home.
    'Fear not he who can destroy the flesh and do no more, fear He who can destroy the flesh and cast the soul into hell..... Fear Him, oh yes fear Him!'
    Whom shall i fear?!
    (Edit 2)
    If Yeshua is the Father then why did he pray to himself, and why did the Father say he was pleased with Yeshua after he was baptized?
    If the Son is the Father and the Father is the Son then why use Father and Son at all?
    They are two separate beings.

    I personally believe Joel Osteen serves Satan‘s kingdom and I’m not alone in this. Though I would never shout blasphemies at him as that is not very pleasing to the Lord. Joel says things that tickle peoples ears and that’s about it. I remember watching a sermon from him years ago where he said that the Lord looks down on the impoverished and that was it for me!
    I also have a client who was on a flight in first class with he and his wife Victoria and she was dropping the F bomb right and left. Thats right Joel Osteen‘s wife! Apparently the stewardess told her she had to keep her little doggies up and she told her where she could go. There are many false prophets And there is none good but God.

    If I was him I wouldn't have called him a cuss word. I would have told Joel that "what shall profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul". Joel is very rich and uses his church to live a very luxurious lifestyle. I think he shouldn't do that and I think he teaches his followers not the importance of the Bible but only what people want to hear. I don't believe he teaches the Bible the right way. He doesn't talk about us being sinners and are heading to hell. All he talks about is how much good God can do for you if you donate you 10% or do good things in life.

God will forgive you if you forgive others, as he said he would, but God also commands you to ask for forgiveness and repent. Now, God is faithful. He will do as he said. But, we are to be faithful to him also, that we might reflect Christ, who was always faithful to God. If we love him, we rely on him to help us do as he says. Hence, we rely on the Holy Spirit to humble us that we might be able to see the plank in our own eye Matt. 7:1-5. I've never seen Ray place himself above others. From my understanding, he always acknowledges his own sin, then points out the sin of others. Completely equalized. Think about it this way: how are we ever going to become humble if we cannot acknowledge our sin? How can we ever stand before God justified if we think we can be sinless on our own? One who can't confess their own faults will always be very proud, unless they are actually perfect. And only God fits that bill.

    The story of the Centurion supplies a living example of faith, one that we should all take notice of.
    The centurion said: “I am not worthy for you to come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. . . . When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel." Matt. 8:8-10.
    This is what Jesus declares to be faith.
    There can be no doubt about this kind of faith, for Christ is "the Author . . . of faith" it, and he says that that which the centurion manifested was "faith;" yes, even "great faith."
    The centurion wanted a certain thing done. He wanted the Lord to do it. But when the Lord said, "I will come" and do it, the centurion checked him, saying, "Speak the word only," and it shall be done.
    Now, what exactly did the centurion think would do the work?-"The word ONLY."
    Upon what did he depend upon for the healing of his servant?-Upon "the word ONLY."

    We are saved by Grace alone through Faith alone. დ
    *_Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law_** ; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin. But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. **_This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe_** There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood-to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate His righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished-he did it to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus. Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith* (Romans 3: 20-28)
    *For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast* (Ephesians 2:8-9)

    I used to follow Joel but once I realized he doesnt speak the truth about Jesus I stopped following him.
    He is very charismatic. But if you ask him if Jesus is the only way to heaven and God, I have seen him dodge that question.
    He teaches prosperity no matter what.

    Southern California is fortunate to have Ray going out everyday to speak the truth of God's Grace. Satan being the great deceiver, is doing everything possible to make People hate God as much as he does to steal your soul. I love how Ray shows us his way of reaching people with the Gospel & God's great Mercy! Romans says "All have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God". The ONLY way to spend eternity with God is to confess your sin, turn from it, and accept the gift of Salvation thru Christ. We can NEVER be good enough, do enough, but by confessing or sin, believing in Christ's Death and Resurrection we are saved. FYI, for those in comments who say Ray is after money, understand this: He began his work broke but with a passion to bring God's words of Salvation to everyone he met. He's worked at this his entire life. He's NOT a rich man, rather a man who follows God's plan for his life. Ignore God's path to Salvation at your peril. It's your eternal life at stake. Not his.

      @@robertdouglas8895 Well, my version of my Bible(NIV) says "Go now and leave your life of sin", which explains it a little better. But Jesus knows that we will still sin, He knows that we still have a sinful nature even as Christians, and we will still sin at times. The difference is that we will not be stuck in sin as Christians, and whenever we still do mess up, we can come to God and repent and turn from our sin.
      But Jesus was not asking the woman to never sin again, He knew that is impossible for any human to achieve on Earth, but what He was asking her to do was to turn from her life as a sinner and start following Him. The point of the story, though, is that Jesus, a Jew, broke all social boundaries by meeting with this woman, a Samaritan, whom Jews would never associate with whatsoever. But Jesus loves everyone and He knew this woman needed to be shown the love of Jesus because she was rejected by everyone else.
