Hey BEAT family! I hope and pray this video resonates with someone today. AND...if it doesn't resonate with you, I REALLY, REALLY need you to do me a favor and share this video with someone who you know NEEDS to hear this. Their eternal soul is at stake. It's as easy as copying the link and texting it to them. Tomorrow is not promised. Share this, and more importantly, the gospel with them before it's too late. Enjoy.
Amen! Apart from Him, I can do nothing. He pulled me from darkness into His Glorious Light. 🙌🏻❤️👑 John 15:5 Vine/branch. John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. 1 John 4:19 We love Him, because He first loved us. Jesus paid it ALL. ALL to Him I owe. Sin has left a crimson stain, He washed me white as snow. John 10:27-28 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Praise The Lord. MARANATHA.
That's wonderful you believe in God. The devil also believes and trembles james 2:19. You must believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior, and that God raised Jesus from dead on the 3rd day. You must confess this by your mouth and you will be saved.romans 10:9
I do as well and I HATE it. The fact that I hate it, and I pray for it to stop, and that I invite Jesus to change me over and over again shows that my mind and beliefs are in the right place. I mean......what every day man sits and thinks of these things? I bet it is rare. The thing I look forward to the most is my complete change into a new mind and body. I'm so excited to not be able to sin anymore I just get super giddy about it. absolute hands down the most anticipated gift I am looking forward to.
A Christian has not biblical mandate….Bible doesn’t tell you how a Christian suppose to live but Christ said be a Disciple and that has a biblical mandate to live by! Become a disciple now your accountable biblically
I'm finally coming back to Christ after 37 years. I accepted Christ at 17 but didn't take it seriously. Spent many years sinning but always kept Christ in the back of my mind. He never stopped knocking on the door to my heart and I'm so glad it isn't too late for me. I have repented and I'm a work in progress. Thank you Jesus!
I was in the same situation, and we are so fortunate that JESUS doesn't give up on us. I too always had HIM in the back of my mind. HIS mercy extends far past what we deserve.
I'm also in the same boat. How is He so merciful to accept us who knew the truth but purposely rejected Him for so long? Perhaps He is far more loving and patient than we'll ever know, and is why it will take eternity to give Him the worship He deserves.
Preach brother. After becoming a Christian I struggled with alcohol addiction for many years. I justified drunkenness by telling myself I wasn’t drunk just having a drink or 2. Only I wasn’t stopping after a drink or 2 I was becoming drunk every weekend. God has saved me from drunkenness now. Thank you Jesus
I don't know if you'd consider it to be a nervous condition (I do) or an addiction, but I used to bite my fingernails until they bled since childhood and God cured me of it. In fact, God did this two weeks before I officially got saved because when I got saved, I had a healthy set of grown fingernails that needed to be trimmed for the first time in my life at that time in my life.
If after your conversion it took God to deliver you from it (as you stated yourself) why then post conversion were you holding yourself accountable for being a sinner when you drank? If you're operating under the holy spirit, God doesn't hold you accountable anymore. So why are you holding your SELF accountable? The guy in the video is way off track. He's a person who in all likelihood isn't "saved".
@@freshliving4199 Confessing with your mouth and believing in your heart that Jesus is God made flesh, that he took on the sins of the world, died on the cross, and rose again on the third day. Then you are saved and born-again. Also, good to confess and repent of your sins, as God is faithful and just to forgive (1 John 1:9).
@@CLDJ227 CJ, that verse is directed to the saved. The Apostle John wrote all 3 of his letters, First John through Third John, to fellow believers in Jesus. The things John wrote make no sense to the lost. The Apostle Paul wrote the Epistle to the Romans for the lost, especially since the Roman Road is the Gospel within the epistle. It has taken me a long time to learn that when we study the Scriptures, the one major rule to keep in mind is "context". I have been a believer in Jesus for over 40 years, and it's within the past 10 years that I have learned about context. So I was taught wrong. It does make a big difference in understanding, and it just makes more sense! I hope you don't feel attacked. My intention is to help you to get more out of the Word. His Word is a lamp unto our feet, and a light unto our path. Most of all, as you read and study, it really helps to ask the Spirit for understanding. He most certainly will! 😊👍
@@kathierouse5306 Amen Kathie. I have learned and still am learning things about keeping the context within the framework of their time and season, Eccl. 3:1. I saddens me when I hear Christians take OT scripture, scriptures which are to the Jews in some other time and season that ours and apply those scriptures to themselves and us. Studying the bible required one to slowdown the reading and ask mental questions about what you just read. You are absolutely right 1 John is for believers. Could you tell me who will be here on earth when Christ returns and sets foot on Mt Zion?
To be honest, I came to christianity because of the privileges and benefits of christianity (mainly heaven). However, the more time I spent getting to know God, my faith grew more genuine. And my focus slowly shifted from heaven to God. Now I can see the positive impact from the commandments and other rules that God gave us. Praise the Lord for beein so merciful to all of us.
Whenever I see videos that make me like "uh oh... little nervous about watching".. when i do watch them i end up with a little more peace of mind each time! Thank you Lord!
Oh my gosh! Yes! Same! And it isn't because of my background, or because of what church I grew up in, but it's because God cares enough to point out something that's hindering my relationship with Him, and if I can still hear His voice and feel the Holy Spirit's conviction, then I am still in God's favor.
Honestly, I just clicked on this video because I was curious about it. Know and believe in God and Jesus’s sacrifice. And after this you know you are saved so don’t be nervous, just trust in our Lord.
Even if we are faithless, He remains faithful....He will never leave nor forsake us...our salvation is not dependent on what we do, it's based on Him in us and thru us, and us in Him...
@@twolak1972in front of people it doesnt justify you, yes but it justifies us in front of God and his salvation for us. Like James 2 says Also read Romans 4:1-6 for context.
@@ladyshenna967in front of people it doesnt justify you, yes but it justifies us in front of God and his salvation for us. Like James 2 says Also read Romans 4:1-6 for context.
I started getting anxiety when I saw the title and started the video, but after watching I feel a lot better and more confident that I am saved by Jesus. Thanks for this!!
READ THE BIBLE ABOUT FALSE PROFITS Deuteronomy 18:20 22 YOUR AMENS GOD IS NOT GOING TO HEAR YOU YOUR BEING MILKED DRY LIKE A COW WATCH VIDEO th-cam.com/video/-qxvmP-NzN4/w-d-xo.html WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT HEATHENS 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.
You're absolutely correct one of the tricks of the enemy is always make you try to work for your salvation you cannot work for your salvation once you're saved and filled with the Holy Spirit that's it you're sealed there's nothing you can do it is a free gift of God bless any man shall both
@@jpettltd from the way I see it God help us spiritually. A lot of decisions that we make are out of the spirit first the way we spend our money the way we pick our spouses the way we communicate with our loved ones family and friends it's all spiritual I think when you have a good solid connection with the Lord and you're in a healthy relationship with Jesus Christ you will begin to see your life change spiritually and things will become better you'll make better decisions you will make better financial decisions but a relational decisions and I see that's how God helps us
@@jpettltd your welcome. No no problem it's always all love with God we don't have to work for it once you receive Jesus that's it you have the fruit of the Spirit. Jesus plus nothing no additives no preservatives
@@Cleaver1130 What did he say against the Bible specifically? I saw your comment before watching the video and I found nothing that was against the Bible. Did I get your comment wrong and you're just reminding us to be careful?
@Austin Hartford He also said that if we love him, we will keep his commandments. We did not earn our way into heaven, it is by the grace of God. That does not mean we are not subject to his commandments. John 14:15
I'm sinner saved by Grace alone in Jesus Christ I trust his precious Holy Blood alone to cover all my dreadful sins and I trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to help,comfort,teach and keep me in fellowship with our Glorious heavenly father.
Okay hang on The gospel ISNT the whole Bible. The Gospel is the good news about Christ. People will always cherry pick the Bible to a degree. But you can't cherry pick the Gospel. It's about one issue. Christ saving you and either you accept it 100 % or you don't.
@@robbiemckenzie7822 No. The gospel is the WHOLE new testament. Infact, the gospel is the WHOLE Bible. The whole Bible is about God's salvation plan for humanity through Jesus Christ. In the old testament, Christ is prophesied. In the new testament, Christ is revealed. Each and every book in the new testament is the exposition of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and how we Christians should respond to the gospel. Thus the Gospel is the WHOLE new testament and if you truly believe the gospel, you ought to believe everything in the new testament and in the old testament bcoz bcoz the whole Bible is about the Lord Jesus Christ and His righteousness. Therefore, if you believe in the gospel, you must believe everything written in the sacred text. If you reject even one thing that God has stated in the Gospel, then you do not believe the gospel
@@lukholofishidi4139 nope it just sounds good to you is all. The Old testement is The Law by which we were condemned. How in any context can you call that good news (The Gospel). The phrase The Gospel means Good News. Mathew Mark Luke and John are THE GOSPELS. They are the recorded history and instruction on how to be saved. Once again the Good News The Gospel. If you have for any reason incorporated anything from the old testament into The Gospel that Christ left us you are in error. That error can cost you for in mixing the old in covenant with the new is not Salvation.
@@robbiemckenzie7822 Tell me this, if the old testament has nothing to do with the gospel, then why did Christ always appeal to the old testament prophecies to prove to the Jews that He is the Messiah? The Law says "thou shalt not kill", are you trying to tell me that it is now ok to kill just because we are in the new covenant not the old covenant? Considering the fact that the majority of the moral codes in the new testament are derived from the old testament (thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal or commit adultery etc), how come do you find the old testament irreconcilable with the new testament without rejecting some of the teachings of the new testament?
Love this message. The biggest issue we have is that people are afraid to call SIN by it's name. Sin is now normalized by social media and the society. People are deceived without even knowing it. God help us
“If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples -John 8:31 ESV “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. -John 14:15 ESV If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. -John 15:10 ESV
My pastor called this same thing 'buffet Christianity'... I wonder if he watched this video. Amazing video, the Bible is not just a truth but THE truth, and if it's not in the Bible, it should be treated as a lie (unless any part of God says otherwise). Jesus is Lord and king, now and forever. Amen!
I really admire your courage to be able to openly speak on such topics on such a large platform. We need more Pastor Allen's in this generation. Thank you so much 🙏🏾
Thank You Pastor Allen, This is So Well Timed. Let's Pray that this video Will Be a Wake Up Call to those that Need it. God Bless You and Your Family, and Your Ministry.
I have seen Christianity become so watered down, that it breaks my heart-people that think they are fine, aren't. At our church, we call ourselves Christ Followers. We want to let folks know who we stand with and for. There is no compromise with God.
Yes it's in the book of judges which I just finished and all I can say is that many groups of Christianity (progressivism) hurt the Church by picking and choosing scripture and which confuses unbelievers and draws them away from hearing the true Gospel
Its the last verse of the book of Judges. The whole book is about how immoral people were behaving and the author ends by saying: in those days there was no king in Israel, everyone did what was right in their own eyes. What a BANG. Love that verse
@@Rapunzel2866 There is another line in another part of the bible stating "there is nothing new under the sun". Along with many others, such as "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure."
Yes, I struggle with sin. Being single, not married, and especially with the wall to wall sensual influences in the world, it can be tough. But I love Jesus, and I know I can overcome. I'm also grateful that the Lord forgives seventy times seven. THANK GOD! Love you, Lord, for all that you have done for me and everyone. May Thy Name always be praised! ❤❤❤
@Austin Hartford The things highlighted in this video are in no way "works" as you are describing it. They described behaviours and thoughts that does not reflect a heart full of Christ. I do agree with you that Salvation is not earned by works only but the points discussed in this video doesn't fall into the category of "works" you are describing. The door is norrow because following Christ is hard and is a constant battle with our flesh, our thoughts (Galatians 2:20-21, Galatians 5:24-25). Following Christ is more than just accept Christ and do all that you well described. After accepting Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we should follow his Commandments and all behaviours that reflects His character and his teachings. This video is not leading people to hell, instead is exposing behaviours and feelings that may corrupt your heart and leave a way for the more evil things to settle in you. God Bless you.

As someone who has unfortunately fallen into "buffet christianity" myself, I am so glad to see that there is content on the subject. It is only through submission to ALL of God's will that we become truly born again through Christ, and I am so thankful to have found a great mentor and friend that helped me see that!
Juvy 679 TH-cam channel could help you as it helped me ..This Pastor has taught me Many Doctrines the Mainstream churches teach and are not Biblical..Jesus said Religiousness of men and Teachings of men that Nullify His Word.
It's like when you were a kid and you didn't want to eat any vegetables, so your mom said you don't get any dinner at all. You have to take the good and bad. (not actually bad things, just like vegetables)
while I agree that we as christians are to submit to God and His will for us, I also know there are verses like ephesians 2:8-9 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. --- with this in mind, we should try to keep in mind that if you are saved you should have the desire to want more of God in your life, but this doesnt mean we are saved by how many actions or how perfect we are, we are saved solely by God's work on the cross that paid the price of our sins we are not good enough for God, nor will we ever be, but God made a way for us to be cleansed, bought with a price, so God did what He (Jesus, whom also is God) said was impossible for man to do alone luke 18:26-30 Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?” 27But Jesus said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.” 28“Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.” 29“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God 30will fail to receive many times more in this age-and in the age to come, eternal life.”
@@lucanaccarato270 while i see the analogy, verses like ephesians 2:8-9 show this in a light that we cannot earn salvation, that it is a gift by the grace of God, given to us for our faith our Holy triune God loves you my friend
@@markcolby2927 I’m guessing what he said would apply to either party. Both parties fail to reflect godly principles and standards as does the entire US government.
Naming the sins is crucial in our redemption in order to repent and trust in His righteousness! So many people need to hear this message! Thank you!🙏🏻💫

To tell you the truth...when I saw the title of the video, it made me nervous. But, when I watched your video I was relieved because I seem to pass the "test". Thank you for telling the truth and for your teachings. I am always thinking of, and scared of whether I am going to heaven or not, or whether I am saved or not.
You're not alone. Part of me didn't even want to watch this video for fear of being pulled into doubt and despair. But I've found that God is so kind, if you just continually come to him with everything, go to him for help, seek him, trust him...he provides. He makes a way where there is no way. He is our mighty and merciful God. It's hard but reading the word helps so much. A few days ago these verses really spoke to me: "Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel, for you are my servant; I formed you; you are my servant; O Israel, you will not be forgotten by me. I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud and your sins like mist; return to me, for I have redeemed you. Sing, O heavens, for the Lord has done it; shout, O depths of the earth; break forth into singing, O mountains, O forest, and every tree in it! For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, and will be glorified in Israel." Isaiah 44:21-23 ♥🙏 God bless you
I think I posted on here before and my message was deleted by YT or the uploader. I worry about your reply. YOU do NOT pass a test. The point is you FAILED the test. See Romans 3:23. If you are looking at yourself to see if you are saved it’s the wrong place to look. Look to Jesus ALONE and His blood shed for your sin. Put your faith in Him ALONE and you will be saved. If you are putting your stock in this “test” to prove your worthiness that you are believing all the correct things about the social issues of the day, you are not believing Christ alone. Please examine YOURSELF to see if you are in the FAITH. If you are, then you are believing Ephesians 2:8-9 that it is not of your works thst you can boast of passing a test. Once you believe you are sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption (see Ephesians 1). Please trust Him alone today.

@Austin Hartford my friend, you are absolutely deceived. You have completely misinterpreted what Allen is saying. We are saved by grace through faith. But cheap grace does not exist. If you do not repent of your sin, you will perish. We are sanctified by the power of the Spirit within us.
"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father, but through Me"-Jesus. So many "Christians" think there are multiple ways to God, and heaven, but they couldn't be more wrong.
"Thus says The Lord of Hosts, to the generation of wrath: You know not the anger of The Lord, nor of My jealousy which burns in the fierceness of My wrath! For the Way of The Lord is not known, and the atrocities committed against the innocent you have hidden from your eyes; you refuse to see! Therefore calamity shall not cease from before your eyes, and destruction shall increase in every corner! Destruction from on high shall increase before you, and the wrath of God shall chase you from behind! The strength of your heart shall give way, and you shall lie down heavily, until death comes to take you and darkness closes in. And still the Way of The Lord is not known. Not one has heard the weeping of The Holy One, no one thirsts. Who has come out to drink? Who has eaten from this Tree? Who, among this lying generation, has opened their mouth in truth?! Who among you sees? Who among you knows? My messengers know, and My prophets have seen; behold, upon their lips I have placed the Word of Truth. And still the Way of The Lord is not known! For the prophets of The Lord are hated, and those who call of themselves Christian persecute and slander My messengers without cause! Behold, My faithful servants are hated by My own people, and in the world they are cast off with rarely a mention! For the Way of The Lord is not known, and the fear of The Lord is forgotten!... This generation has no love for God in their hearts! Therefore, thus says The Lord God: Behold the generation of My wrath! Look upon this great multitude of wicked and deceived peoples; look deep into this darkness! Take a lantern and search, go from house to house, and see if there is one who remembers The Way! See if there are any who know Me, if there is one who embraces Me as I truly am! And yet the people say, “Where has all this darkness come from, and for what cause has all this violence come upon us? For what reason is all this devastation come upon us?!” Is this not the Day which was spoken of? Says The Lord. Is this not the Day prophesied throughout the generations, even from the beginning, that it should come? Is this not the Day of Clouds and Thick Darkness?! For I tell you the truth, it has come, all have entered in! Behold, the outcry of the prophets has Come forth, the Word of The Lord is here!... It comes to pass before your eyes, It increases and fills the earth!... Therefore, hear the Word of The Lord and give heed! Hear the Word of The Lord from aforetime, and of this day! Hear the Call and the Testimony, and tremble In fear at the Proclamation of The Lord!... For the decree is sent down; Judgment is set and ready to be poured out! Lo, calamity has broken forth already, announcing the coming of The Holy One. His messengers prepare His way before Him, the earth trembles at His nearness. Lo, His hands gather His flock together, and His soft voice calls to His lambs... Behold, the house is broken into, yet who is aware of it? Behold, the bundles are tied and set in their places, and still the people mock! And those called Christian say, “Are we not the chosen? Yes, we are the elect of God”... Woe, I say to you! Woe to you and all your arrogant houses; you have surely deceived yourselves! Bow down therefore and humble yourselves, Heed the call and depart from Your filthy houses, and repent!... Forsake all these man-made doctrines and Perverse traditions, put away all these pagan holidays!... STOP POLLUTING MY NAME AND MY GLORY!... Stand apart from those who persecute My messengers And mock My promises, and I may yet receive you! Am I not The Lord God who sees, The One who knows? Yet My people hide their faces from Me, and cover their shame in an effort to appear righteous before men. Do I not search the hearts and minds, even to the innermost? Therefore who is it you seek to please, and for what cause do you wear all this fine apparel? For what reason do you wear these masks and cover your heads? For what purpose is this masquerade?! For I tell you the truth, the sluggard is at ease among you, the so-called faithful worship themselves, and the supposed devout follow after men! Am I not The Lord? And if I am The Lord your God, then how is it you seek after vain glories and refuse to accept Me as I am?! For vanity is a rope, and pride builds the gallows. Is not Haman your brother and Cain your close friend? And of their reward you have made yourselves fully worthy! Is not wisdom justified by her children and wickedness the delight of fools? For I tell you the truth, death is at the door and the pit is dug deep, Gei-Hinnom waits patiently and Sheol is made ready, and the wicked shall be cast into it! THE EVIL OF HEART SHALL SURELY DESCEND INTO IT! For death and wickedness are married, and the grave is never full. By evil deeds do the wicked consummate their union, by their every word do they confirm their agreement, until the fire consumes them and darkness hides them away. For the place of the deceased is known, yet those consumed by the fire shall never be found. They shall cease to exist, their names blotted out forever." ~ "Thus says The Lord: Behold, the corrupt doctrines of the churches of men have crept into every corner; near and far, the doctrine of hell and eternal torment is embraced by the people. Yet I tell you the truth, this doctrine is a loathsome spot on every garment worn in the name of truth! A detestable wrinkle within the tapestry of My glory! A horrible interwoven thread by which those who call of themselves Christian pollute My name and mar My image before the people, propagating that which came forth from the mouth of the dragon! THIS DOCTRINE IS EVIL! And must be opposed by all who have received the love of the Truth. For I have indeed spoken to this generation, even as I have spoken in all times past. For I AM THE LORD, The Light in whom there is no darkness at all."
@@edwardlongfellow5819 "That which you call the Old Testament was indeed written through My servants and prophets of old, and all who were wise gave heed, obeying the writing thereof. Yet even then that which would come to be written in the New Testament already existed, awaiting the day I would send out My apostles and prophets to proclaim the Good News. Was it the Old Testament? No. It was the New Testament, never before seen, heard or published. And now the time has come for Me to send out My apostles and prophets once again, to announce My coming and to set all these crooked paths straight; behold, it is time to blow the Trumpet and prepare My way before Me. Does that which My messengers proclaim agree with the Bible? Yes. For the words in these Letters are My words; as are the words in your Bible My words, though they have been greatly misinterpreted and mistranslated by men. Therefore put no difference between them. For to reject any part of My Word is to reject the whole. I tell you the truth, the three books are one, one on-going testament to My glory. Thus much of what My servants proclaim, you have already heard. Yet they will also declare that which you have not heard (nor have you understood, because of man’s doctrine in you). Therefore, again I say to you, what My prophets of the end of this age write is indeed new to many, yet remains in perfect agreement with the prophets of old. For I do not change; I shall surely make My plans known." ~ "Yet that which I speak at present must be put first. Thus that which is contained in the Volumes of Truth is foremost, and must be brought to the forefront for all to behold. Not that this Word is at all superior; neither shall it be considered inferior to My Word found in the Scriptures of Truth. For My Word is My Word; all I speak is Scripture and Truth. And that which I speak in the hearing of My prophets is written and put forth for the generation in which it is to be received, foremost, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear. And as it was in all times past, when I spoke by My servants, the prophets, and they in turn both wrote and spoke My words aloud, saying, “Thus says The Lord,” so it is at this time also, even during the end of this age which is upon you. Again, I say to you, that which proceeds from My mouth at present is foremost, and shall not be put second to My Word spoken aforetime. Neither is one a foundation for the other, as though the Word proceeding from My own mouth is in need of anything to uphold it; nor is any other witness required to prove My Word as My own, when I Myself have spoken it... MY WORD STANDS! Therefore, let My present Word be shown to be in full agreement with My former Word. For it is indeed in perfect agreement with My Word as it was, yet runs straight in comparison with that which men have made crooked. Here is wisdom few have considered, nor have they understood: If one who confesses Me lacks discernment, on account of ears which remain dull of hearing and eyes which remain dim in seeing, let them test My Word by My Word only. For any who test outside My Word, according to the words or doctrines of men, shall fail and be found in contempt before The Lord. For I alone sit as judge. Indeed, they have failed to see that My Word in the Volumes of Truth, also being called the Letters, is the rod by which the translations of men are to be tested, a light which shines upon the doctrines of men to expose them, revealing them to be blasphemies and heresies before God, all of which shall burn up in the Day, when the fire comes to test the quality of each man’s work. Therefore, if one professing faith be wise, He shall humble himself before Me, Calling upon the name of The Holy One For knowledge, in where all understanding Flows to the truly contrite and penitent, Flowing in pure testimony, free from corruption... And by this only shall one be wise in the reading, Comparing that which was given with that Which is put forth once again, discerning The Source and The Author to be the same... One Word, One Book, One on-going Testament to My glory; By no means shall it be divided into three!... Says The Lord."
Thank you for these wise words. I do fall into these categories. Lately, I've been closer than ever to God than ever before. I feel better because of my renewed faith in God. Jesus is my savior. I stand by the Bible 100%. I repent of my sins. When I do sin, it is like a nightmare I don't feel good about them anymore. So, repentance makes me see the light. I sin less. I'm letting the fruit grow. I'm walking the path. I know I'm going in the right direction now. Praise the Lord🙏😁
I love how you not only focus on the love of God but that we need to do our part as well. I feel like so many pastors do not stress that we need to be obedient and follow and they only talk about how loving God is.
@Austin Hartford, yes... To answer your question. You can show your faith by works. These are the things you must do. I appreciate you pointing out James 2. I've read it over. God says to love your neighbor. Show them compassion. I embrace this.
Dear God, Forgive us for drifting away from you, for allowing other things to become more important in our lives. Help us to live aware, to choose wisely, to stay close to you, and anchored in your Truth. Apart from you, we have no hope. Thank you for your great love and mercy, thank you that you wait for us, that you call us to yourself, and you strengthen us in our weakness. Thank you that you alone are our Refuge and Safety, and you fill us with hope. We come to you today, choosing to walk in your Presence and Light. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Your prayer was very inspirational and I felt called to pray it while I was reading it. Afterward, I prayed it again but substituted the plural words like 'us, we, our' and prayed 'me, I, my'. Thank you for sharing this prayer and may your life be filled with His love.
As a Christian for over 4 decades, I can genuinely say I can respond AFFIRMATIVELY to the questions you pose! I'm an elderly widow now, and praise God, our 2 children who are now middle aged are saved, too! I believe fervently in ALL of the Bible, and I am GRATEFUL to Jesus Christ to have entered the NARROW GATE and press on to obey my Lord! My late husband was saved also, and I look forward to seeing him in glory! I'm one of the few who entered the NARROW GATE, praise Jesus!
Wish more preachers had your courage and conviction in lovingly conveying the truth about Lordship. Luke 6:46 and Gal 2:20. (Thanks for including repentance as a change of mind)
Lordship Salvation is a wicked heresy that’s no different than Catholicism and Mormonism. Yes we should respond to Christ as Lord. But you have people teaching that you need to have good works to be saved.
"Many professing Christians want the benefits of Christianity without subscribing to its belief and behaviour" ( along with the struggles) Powerful brother Allen. New Age Christianity is the new trend. Especially my fellow youth believers.
Behavior has nothing to do with being saved that’s where he’s wrong..salvation is based on faith and grace alone NOT THAT OF OUR WORKS (behaviors). Someone could follow every law in the Old Testament and still go to hell if they havent believed in Jesus alone
Pastor Parr...I'm forever grateful you've brought ALL THESE POINTs up here ..I've had so MANY DISCUSSIONS on almost every point here ..AND BTW..Love the format here ...It's almost like we are watching your channel grow up! As always THANK YOU FOR YOUR HEARTFELT LOVE FOR ALL..GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS ..
My husband and I just discovered your channel tonight. This was so great. Honestly I thought I hope it’s not something I’m doing. No, but as Christians we are compelled to examine our motives and actions. Thank you for the reminder. Looking forward to watching more videos. Blessings.
John : 14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.” Titus 3 : 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
@Opal Allen 12 - 12 - 21 Today SUNDAY RESURRECTION worship day was GREAT ! "" I AM the RESURRECTION ! "" John 11 : 25 What EXACTLY did Allen Parr say that was nit picking......?
Our God is like “you are all in, or not at all” And this is actually good news! Because the same we shall expect from Him. Once you are His, He is with you all the way. And that’s the kind of relationship we all want and need. No compromises. In/Out. Simple. Thank you for this message. It’s about time the world hear this. P.S. hey Allen, your thoughts on the Sabbath…can you make a video about that? Very interested to hear your take on it.
Couldn't agree more. It's comforting to know that God will never leave us or forsake us and if we have put our faith in Christ that we belong to him and nothing can snatch us out of his hand.
But are you really all in? Would you put your family's life on the line for a test from God? If you say no, then you are being honest with yourself that no one can commit to anyone full time, which many have found out already. Also, is God always with you? A father to a child is supposed to love and nurture, and thats to all of his children, even if they despise their father or curse his name. Being that humanity is his children, is that true?
Thank you. God showed me this video this moment, the moment I am still a newbie Christian. I really want to know more about Christianity and your channel helps me so much!
I’ve been struggling with a lot of things lately. I just finally quit a job that was destroying me, messing with my relationship, and really screwing with my mental health. I am still suffering from what that workplace has done to me. Please pray for me. I really need it right now.
It has been 9 months since you have written this. I just prayed for you before writing this. I hope you are doing better now than you were 9 months ago. Be at peace and God bless.
Romans 10:9-11 KJV 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.
Was nervous before the video. Then I saw the questions, for those who are struggling. I’m praying for you and I encourage you to reject the world’s view on what God has always Condemned. My love and God’s love ❤️
All glory be to our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus! “Don’t do buffet Christianity.” Very convicting and true. We all need to examine ourselves and the gate is narrow, as you point out from the Word of the one true God. Also, ask the Holy Spirit for revelation and conviction before/while reading His Scripture. Thank you! 🙌🏽❣️
@Austin Hartford you don’t know me and you’re disappointed in me? 🤔😂 I could point out many verses from the Word of God to correct you, but I will let you do your own research and let the Holy Spirit do the conviction. That is of course, if He actually lives in you 🤷🏽♀️ Also, I did not read the rest of your reply. I figured if the first couple of sentences make no sense, the rest must be just as wrong. Take care and God bless! 👋🏽
Please do NOT get v or tested or your temperature be measured. The v and tests are the mark of the beast. There is no forgiveness for those that got v or tested. If you are facing the situation at your workplace whether to take the v/tests or not, please quit the job. Losing one's soul, is not worth it. Religious exemption will also not work forever. Ask the Lord for confirmation. Don't give in when someone forces you. Be it family, friends or employer, do not give in. Examine the preachers and TH-cam channels you listen to and unsubscribe to the channels that do not help you in your walk with the Lord. The rapture is after the tribulation. Persecution is coming. Ask if you have any questions. The body of Christ is the third temple. No building. Be careful which church you go to. Pray, Fast and read the bible as never before. No make up, earrings, lipstick, fake lashes, fake fingernails, fake hair, etc. Let the hair stay natural. No tv, no gaming, worldly music. No trousers as a woman. No piercings, tattoos, chains, rings, braids. Dress properly. No shorts. No porn. No oral/anal sex. No sex before marriage. No masturbation. No abortion. No smoking. No anime. No pork or other abominable flesh. Stay away from the roman catholic stuff. Repent of your sins. Ask the Lord what you have to change in your life. Baptism in the name of Jesus. Test the spirits. Warn others. Rather read your bible or pray, than watching TH-cam.
It's not solid biblical teaching. This type of Christianity is called "Jesus plus something else." In this teaching, faith in Jesus is not enough. Our salvation does not depend on what Jesus did, but it also includes our behavior and understanding. Basically he's saying that if someone doesn't behave or understand correctly, they may not be saved. This is not the Gospel (good news), it's actually very bad new. "Then they asked him, 'What must we do to do the works God requires?' Jesus answered, 'The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.'” John 6:28-29. Too many Christians get caught up in New Testament legalism. We live by faith, no longer by the law. Christians have been picking and choosing for 2000 years. Every denomination picks and chooses. It's a very human thing to do. It doesn't mean it's correct, or that we don't sometimes pick and choose incorrectly. Of course we do. That's why Jesus had to die. God knew we couldn't ever, ever, get it right.
@@daniellazo888 so if we believe in the One (the Son) He (the Father) has sent, we don’t do as He has told us in His Word? 🤔 Through faith in Jesus He saves us. But if we’re truly born again Christians, the Holy Spirit gives us conviction and revelation while reading His Word., during prayer, watching a video on TH-cam, talking to a friend, etc. Sending blessings your way 💕
@@yessierootedinchristlovean5356 Justification and sanctification are different. Better title for this video might be "If you're doing this one thing, you might be in the early stage of sanctification." We are justified (saved) by grace through faith. Nothing more. We "do" what he told us increasingly more as we are sanctified by the Spirit, but this is a process that can take years, decades, even a lifetime.
That's called the prosperity gospel, the money will save you thing, and also money Donations will get you more money from God. The Bible only said you need to acknowledge Jesus is the way to life. And of course the evidence that you are changed is striving to live a holy life
@@lovelynsdiaries8510 James isn’t saying faith without works doesn’t exist. James is using “dead” to show ineffectiveness . A faith i. Christ if you don’t provide for your bother and sister in need will not be effective. Faith without works means the believer suffers loss in this life and loss at the bema seat. Jesus will not reward that believer nor will they reign with him. If you believe your works must be there to be saved You have not believed the gospel Be blessed
Lord God, I’m sorry for being ignorant with some parts of the word. I’m sorry Lord God for my unbelief and for my sin. I’m sorry I just struggle with honoring you and your word! I fully admit that and I’m sorry! Please forgive me!!
@@nzifb7409 James 2: 20-24 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video! So, many ppl confess to be Christian, but refuse to acknowledge that Christianity is an exclusive faith!! It’s not a buffet! You spoke it exactly! In today’s inclusive culture ppl need to know Jesus is exclusive!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I talk to God all the time. If it wasn't for the trinity I would be so lost...the holy spirit guides me every day...thank you for your honest and God spoken videos.
I watched this, and answered yes to all the questions. I’m not just in it for the perks, I’m in it to trust my Heavenly Dad! I felt like I was never going to do enough in order to be truly saved, but after watching this, I feel a lot more peace of mind. I very much feel I’m in the right track! Thank you!
I love this video so much cause I’ve been in the position telling this to some Christian friends that they can’t pick what work for them it’s a full package I have to share this 😇😇
Watching this video, made me cry so much. I really want my family to be saved, so many people in my life are doing this, and it really scares me. Please pray for my family. God bless, and have a good day.
Matthew 18:19 (nkjv) Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. Father, my sister Christina and I ask that You would save her family. Lord, open-up their hearts to receive You and give them a hunger that thirst for Your Word. And, Lord, please give my sister Christina peace, and deliver her from the spirit of fear. We ask these things in the mighty name of Jesus, and agree that they shall be done. Thank you Father. Amen. Intercede for your family, as the Holy Spirit leads you, Christina.
Thank you so much brother Allen! You narrowed it down just right. This is what I’ve been trying to explain to my daughter that abiding in Christ is not about abiding when you want to, it’s continual, perseverance of the saints.
Good stuff brother! May the Lord return soon! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. God bless you!
Another encouraging video. As a Christian I was curious to find out what this thing is which cancels our salvation and now I am edified in Christ. Thanks Pastor Allen
Thank you so much for pointing this out. You couldn't have picked a more perfect time! The whole world needs to see this!! Thank you & may God continue to bless your ministry in Jesus name 🙌🏿 We NEED to be Bold in Christ! Our souls depend on it 🙏🏿
What an enlightenment, this is a solid viewpoint of what is happening today with this generation of Christians. Thank you for reminding each and everyone of us!
As always, I appreciate your honesty and willingness to be candid about God's word and what He says about how we are supposed to live. SO GOOD! I'm sharing this with my entire family 👍🏾❤😊
@Austin Hartford You sound like you didn't really listen to this video. I really hope you take time to listen again. Pastor Parr is one of the few pastors I have found who actually preaches the Bible and not his feelings and supplemental materials only! Instead of posting your argument, maybe you should ask for clarification if you don't understand something that was said. I've grown spiritually and have a better understanding of the word since I started listening to Pastor Parr. I've shared and discussed his content with my family and share his teaching often with friends. My relationship with Christ has grown closer and I read my bible more. I think we should uplift one another instead of argue. If you interpret the word of God to be different than what Pastor Parr is literally reading, send him a message to inquire. That's what I would do. Inquire respectfully instead of posting combative posts in the comments. Hopefully you'll gain clarification and understanding. Pray about it as well. I'll be praying for you too. I hope Pastor Parr keeps posting God's truth as long as he feels led to do so. We need more teachers that are willing to say what God says instead of what the world says. While you're praying, don't forget to pray for Pastor Parr too. Uplift first! Let's not tear one another down.
This was a very good video. Hopefully, it'll be a wake-up call to all who need to hear it. To anyone struggling with their Christian walk, it is hard sometimes, but keep going. Never give up. Allow God to work on your soul and one day you will be who He wants you to be.
Brother Allen, I can see the Spirit was speaking through you in this message because it is one that needs to be said. We all need to look at our hearts and ask if we are truly following God's word. As you said, this is something for all believers to decide for themselves though. We can seek out wise counsel of course but ultimately we need to seek God and repent of our sins. I fear too many in the church are aiming to please others and to please the world, instead of pleasing the Audience of One!

@Austin Hartford The Day when man shall remember what he strove for. 36. And Hell- fire shall be made apparent in full view for ( every ) one who sees. 37. Then for him who transgressed all bounds, ( in disbelief, oppression and evil deeds of disobedience to Allâh ) . 38. And preferred the life of this world ( by following his evil desires and lusts ) , 39. Verily, his abode will be Hell- fire; 40. But as for him who feared standing before his Lord, and restrained himself from impure evil desires and lusts. 41. Verily, Paradise will be his abode. 42. They ask you ( O Muhammad ( saas ) ) about the Hour - when will be its appointed time? 43. You have no knowledge to say anything about it. 44. To your Lord belongs ( the knowledge of ) the term thereof? 45. You ( O Muhammad ( saas ) ) are only a warner for those who fear it, 46. The Day they see it, ( it will be ) as if they had not tarried ( in this world ) except an afternoon or a morning.
@Austin Hartford Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “By Allah, the son of Mary will descend as a just ruler. He will abolish the cross, kill the swine, and annul the tribute, but he will leave the she-camel such that no one collects from it. He will cause rancor, hatred, and envy to disappear, and he will call people to give their wealth in charity but no one will need it.”
I think your video was clear, concise and truthful. No sugar coating, you nailed it in my humble opinion. I’m going thru a hard time in my life, but my trust in God has given me that peace the Bible speaks of. Thank you Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit.
Thank you for this message, brother Allen. By God's grace, I answered yes to all the questions asked. God has really made me understand His word more than ever during this pandemic. Please help me pray for a certain friend of mine who practices "Buffet Christianity". She accepted Christ earlier than I did. I did rebuke her but it ended up damaging our friendship. Thank you and God bless you! ❤️
1. First, I want to say that I heartily support the main argument of this video. It is very important and timely. I just have a couple of criticisms for my brother on how it was communicated. 2. I'm not sure that the click-baity "this one thing," "wait till the end of the video while I list some things" tactics which come out of on-line advertising are a good thing to see being utilized concerning Biblical teaching. This is more a cultural/stylistic criticism than anything really substantive. 3. I do think, however, that it's a bad idea to make, as you seemed to state at one point, "what has been held near and dear for almost 2000 years," a standard of proper belief or practice. People have been practicing infant baptism for longer than Protestants have (correctly) rejected it as un-biblical. There are things that crept in during the time of the Apostles that are still being taught or practiced today that are un-biblical. Tradition and ancient practice should not be the guide. 4. It is helpful to ask, "Is homosexual *activity* sin" rather than just, "Is homosexuality sin." Activity is sin. Temptations and tendencies are not sins. Having homosexual impulses (what the world calls "being Homosexual") does not equal committing sin. Actually giving into and/or accepting these impulses is the sin. It may seem like splitting hairs, but it is important for people with such impulses to realize that we are not condemning them for the feelings they are having so we can help them overcome the actual sinful lifestyle and behaviors. I believe some people come to adulthood with certain tendencies toward specific sins. (Gluttony is more of a temptation for me than for some, so I have to be extra careful concerning food, for example) If we condemn them for these temptations rather than condemning sinful behavior itself, we are hurting them instead of helping them. I trust you already know this point and agree with it. It is important to put it into practice in how we speak, however.
I couldn't agree more. Especially with the second point. I always feel troubled seeing "Christian" TH-camrs jumping along the bandwagon of clickbaits. What for? To gain views from their fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Idk about yall, but that's not how the holy spirit moves within us. Just go straight to the point without confusing the viewers or perhaps letting them roam the entire room before the destination. Fix your eyes, brother.
QUESTION : did you read ALL OF MATTHEW 16 Or did you just pull the part that you want OUT OF CONTEXT Jesus didn't just say whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and pick up their cross and follow me READ IT AGAIN.... Keep reading beyond that point i'm sure you'll find a part that says something to the effect of ... IF THEY LOSE THEIR LIFE FOR ME THEY WILL FIND IT it's not about picking up a cross i'ts not about dying on the cross i'ts about givng your life to and for christ all i'm saying is.... People make a habit of cherry picking parts of the bible THAT SUITS THEM without reading it in context and without reading the entire chapter Try this sometime, i'm sure you'll see things in a different light PICK A PASSAGE, ANY PASSAGE then... figure out what you think it means THEN... READ THE ENTIRE BLOODY CHAPTER and i'm sure it'll paint a different picture
@Austin Hartford The first problem christians have is THEY NEED TO COME TO A COMMON UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT REGARDING THE BIBLE, SALVATION, BEING SAVED AND WHAT THE STORY IS Until a unified story is obtained there is really is absolutely not point debating it with each other and quoting the bible on this or that because it easily opens the door to them saying to you, yeah but what about this part of the bible etc etc and even though i side with you on this topic, i still say Christianity has a lot of stuff to work out before it can worry about eternal life Christianity as i see it now is like a bunch of children running around saying Yeeeaaah, naaahh, and never logically agreeing on anything i mean christians can't even agree on a simple fundamental like which one of these statements is true IS GOD ONE ENTITY AND JESUS ANOTHER or IS JESUS, GOD AND GOD IS JESUS AND THEY ARE ONE the entire religion is so messed up it's not funny and no one has ever bothered to stop and say HANG ON , WE NEED TO GET TOGETHER AND WORK THINGS OUT AND FIND A COMMON PATH
@@believer431 Very true and what difference is there if some follows Christ of follows THE BEAT by allen parr who follows christ Basically these people come here they like they subscribe and for whatever reason THEY LISTEN TO THIS CHANNEL, THEY TAKE HIS TEACHINGS "AS GOSPEL" (Pun intended) we should call these people and their religion ALLENPARRIANITY LOL people dont seem to understand this do they ? they will claim they follow christ, but in fact, they are following allen and everything he says they respond with "yeah, that's right , he totally knows what he's talking about" so yeah, You're correct man
@Austin Hartford ok...... What does that have to do with anything i said ? the problem here is you have a thought in your head and you assume i'm a mind reader...I'M NOT ! so... What are you talking about ? Can you give me some context as to what you read and which of my comments you are replying to and them I MAY PERHAPS KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
The gate is narrow and only Few who find it, but with Repent and Merci of God,He's open the door to let us able to Get in, God Bless to you all, Thanks Allen
Thank you, Mr. Parr. This needs to be heard in all our Christian churches like it used to be when I was little. My life is much better since I have been saved not always easy but I wouldn't change anything.
If this doesn't impact someone to change then I don't know what will ! This hit me right between the eyes and was very well and simply said . Thank u for your ministry Mr. Parr
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “By Allah, the son of Mary will descend as a just ruler. He will abolish the cross, kill the swine, and annul the tribute, but he will leave the she-camel such that no one collects from it. He will cause rancor, hatred, and envy to disappear, and he will call people to give their wealth in charity but no one will need it.”
John : 14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.” Titus 3 : 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
@@lchimenz 4:171] O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, “Three”; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs. [4:172] Never would the Messiah disdain to be a servant of Allah , nor would the angels near [to Him]. And whoever disdains His worship and is arrogant - He will gather them to Himself all together.

I can't survive without God. I love him so much. I'm proud to be his child. Life begins with God. Thank you in the name of Jesus. Amen 🙏 🙏 🙏

I am a Christian and I struggle with sin but I know with the power of Jesus I can over come it
I do as well and I HATE it. The fact that I hate it, and I pray for it to stop, and that I invite Jesus to change me over and over again shows that my mind and beliefs are in the right place. I mean......what every day man sits and thinks of these things? I bet it is rare. The thing I look forward to the most is my complete change into a new mind and body. I'm so excited to not be able to sin anymore I just get super giddy about it. absolute hands down the most anticipated gift I am looking forward to.
A Christian has not biblical mandate….Bible doesn’t tell you how a Christian suppose to live but Christ said be a Disciple and that has a biblical mandate to live by! Become a disciple now your accountable biblically
Christ never told anyone to be a Christian….so I will not claim that title since it was not a good title to have biblically..
Walk with the Holy Spirit everyday. Don't discount the power in that relationship. 🙏
Same here I know for a fact that JESUS CHRIST IS WITH ME RIGHT NOW
I'm finally coming back to Christ after 37 years. I accepted Christ at 17 but didn't take it seriously. Spent many years sinning but always kept Christ in the back of my mind. He never stopped knocking on the door to my heart and I'm so glad it isn't too late for me. I have repented and I'm a work in progress. Thank you Jesus!
Amen. 🙏
I was in the same situation, and we are so fortunate that JESUS doesn't give up on us. I too always had HIM in the back of my mind. HIS mercy extends far past what we deserve.
Same situation. 30 yrs old and just now restoring my faith and walking with Christ. Amen. God is good ❤
Thank the lord!!
I'm also in the same boat. How is He so merciful to accept us who knew the truth but purposely rejected Him for so long? Perhaps He is far more loving and patient than we'll ever know, and is why it will take eternity to give Him the worship He deserves.
Preach brother. After becoming a Christian I struggled with alcohol addiction for many years. I justified drunkenness by telling myself I wasn’t drunk just having a drink or 2. Only I wasn’t stopping after a drink or 2 I was becoming drunk every weekend. God has saved me from drunkenness now. Thank you Jesus
I don't know if you'd consider it to be a nervous condition (I do) or an addiction, but I used to bite my fingernails until they bled since childhood and God cured me of it.
In fact, God did this two weeks before I officially got saved because when I got saved, I had a healthy set of grown fingernails that needed to be trimmed for the first time in my life at that time in my life.

If after your conversion it took God to deliver you from it (as you stated yourself) why then post conversion were you holding yourself accountable for being a sinner when you drank?
If you're operating under the holy spirit, God doesn't hold you accountable anymore. So why are you holding your SELF accountable?

CJ, that verse is directed to the saved. The Apostle John wrote all 3 of his letters, First John through Third John, to fellow believers in Jesus. The things John wrote make no sense to the lost.
The Apostle Paul wrote the Epistle to the Romans for the lost, especially since the Roman Road is the Gospel within the epistle.
It has taken me a long time to learn that when we study the Scriptures, the one major rule to keep in mind is "context". I have been a believer in Jesus for over 40 years, and it's within the past 10 years that I have learned about context. So I was taught wrong. It does make a big difference in understanding, and it just makes more sense!
I hope you don't feel attacked. My intention is to help you to get more out of the Word. His Word is a lamp unto our feet, and a light unto our path. Most of all, as you read and study, it really helps to ask the Spirit for understanding. He most certainly will! 😊👍
@@kathierouse5306 Amen Kathie. I have learned and still am learning things about keeping the context within the framework of their time and season, Eccl. 3:1. I saddens me when I hear Christians take OT scripture, scriptures which are to the Jews in some other time and season that ours and apply those scriptures to themselves and us. Studying the bible required one to slowdown the reading and ask mental questions about what you just read.
You are absolutely right 1 John is for believers.
Could you tell me who will be here on earth when Christ returns and sets foot on Mt Zion?
To be honest, I came to christianity because of the privileges and benefits of christianity (mainly heaven).
However, the more time I spent getting to know God, my faith grew more genuine. And my focus slowly shifted from heaven to God.
Now I can see the positive impact from the commandments and other rules that God gave us.

Oh my gosh! Yes! Same! And it isn't because of my background, or because of what church I grew up in, but it's because God cares enough to point out something that's hindering my relationship with Him, and if I can still hear His voice and feel the Holy Spirit's conviction, then I am still in God's favor.
Honestly, I just clicked on this video because I was curious about it. Know and believe in God and Jesus’s sacrifice. And after this you know you are saved so don’t be nervous, just trust in our Lord.
Yes. It can give you more confidence and assurance.
Even if we are faithless, He remains faithful....He will never leave nor forsake us...our salvation is not dependent on what we do, it's based on Him in us and thru us, and us in Him...
Exactly! Glad someone finally said it
Faith without works is dead

Okay hang on The gospel ISNT the whole Bible. The Gospel is the good news about Christ. People will always cherry pick the Bible to a degree. But you can't cherry pick the Gospel. It's about one issue. Christ saving you and either you accept it 100 % or you don't.
@@robbiemckenzie7822 No. The gospel is the WHOLE new testament. Infact, the gospel is the WHOLE Bible. The whole Bible is about God's salvation plan for humanity through Jesus Christ. In the old testament, Christ is prophesied. In the new testament, Christ is revealed. Each and every book in the new testament is the exposition of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and how we Christians should respond to the gospel. Thus the Gospel is the WHOLE new testament and if you truly believe the gospel, you ought to believe everything in the new testament and in the old testament bcoz bcoz the whole Bible is about the Lord Jesus Christ and His righteousness. Therefore, if you believe in the gospel, you must believe everything written in the sacred text. If you reject even one thing that God has stated in the Gospel, then you do not believe the gospel

They are the recorded history and instruction on how to be saved. Once again the Good News The Gospel.
If you have for any reason incorporated anything from the old testament into The Gospel that Christ left us you are in error.
That error can cost you for in mixing the old in covenant with the new is not Salvation.
@@robbiemckenzie7822 Tell me this, if the old testament has nothing to do with the gospel, then why did Christ always appeal to the old testament prophecies to prove to the Jews that He is the Messiah? The Law says "thou shalt not kill", are you trying to tell me that it is now ok to kill just because we are in the new covenant not the old covenant? Considering the fact that the majority of the moral codes in the new testament are derived from the old testament (thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal or commit adultery etc), how come do you find the old testament irreconcilable with the new testament without rejecting some of the teachings of the new testament?

Its the last verse of the book of Judges. The whole book is about how immoral people were behaving and the author ends by saying: in those days there was no king in Israel, everyone did what was right in their own eyes. What a BANG. Love that verse

@Austin Hartford The things highlighted in this video are in no way "works" as you are describing it. They described behaviours and thoughts that does not reflect a heart full of Christ. I do agree with you that Salvation is not earned by works only but the points discussed in this video doesn't fall into the category of "works" you are describing. The door is norrow because following Christ is hard and is a constant battle with our flesh, our thoughts (Galatians 2:20-21, Galatians 5:24-25). Following Christ is more than just accept Christ and do all that you well described. After accepting Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we should follow his Commandments and all behaviours that reflects His character and his teachings. This video is not leading people to hell, instead is exposing behaviours and feelings that may corrupt your heart and leave a way for the more evil things to settle in you. God Bless you.

ephesians 2:8-9
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-
9 not by works, so that no one can boast.
---
with this in mind, we should try to keep in mind that if you are saved you should have the desire to want more of God in your life, but this doesnt mean we are saved by how many actions or how perfect we are, we are saved solely by God's work on the cross that paid the price of our sins
we are not good enough for God, nor will we ever be, but God made a way for us to be cleansed, bought with a price, so God did what He (Jesus, whom also is God) said was impossible for man to do alone
luke 18:26-30
Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27But Jesus said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
28“Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”

To tell you the truth...when I saw the title of the video, it made me nervous. But, when I watched your video I was relieved because I seem to pass the "test". Thank you for telling the truth and for your teachings. I am always thinking of, and scared of whether I am going to heaven or not, or whether I am saved or not.
You're not alone. Part of me didn't even want to watch this video for fear of being pulled into doubt and despair. But I've found that God is so kind, if you just continually come to him with everything, go to him for help, seek him, trust him...he provides. He makes a way where there is no way. He is our mighty and merciful God. It's hard but reading the word helps so much. A few days ago these verses really spoke to me:
"Remember these things, O Jacob,
and Israel, for you are my servant;
I formed you; you are my servant;
O Israel, you will not be forgotten by me.
I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud
and your sins like mist;
return to me, for I have redeemed you.
Sing, O heavens, for the Lord has done it;
shout, O depths of the earth;
break forth into singing, O mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
and will be glorified in Israel."
Isaiah 44:21-23

1 Corinthians 15:1-4
I think I posted on here before and my message was deleted by YT or the uploader. I worry about your reply. YOU do NOT pass a test. The point is you FAILED the test. See Romans 3:23. If you are looking at yourself to see if you are saved it’s the wrong place to look. Look to Jesus ALONE and His blood shed for your sin. Put your faith in Him ALONE and you will be saved. If you are putting your stock in this “test” to prove your worthiness that you are believing all the correct things about the social issues of the day, you are not believing Christ alone. Please examine YOURSELF to see if you are in the FAITH. If you are, then you are believing Ephesians 2:8-9 that it is not of your works thst you can boast of passing a test. Once you believe you are sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption (see Ephesians 1). Please trust Him alone today.

Thank you Allen! Somebody with the backbone to speak the truth. We back you brother, preach the uncompromised word of God!
@Austin Hartford my friend, you are absolutely deceived. You have completely misinterpreted what Allen is saying. We are saved by grace through faith. But cheap grace does not exist. If you do not repent of your sin, you will perish. We are sanctified by the power of the Spirit within us.
"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father, but through Me"-Jesus. So many "Christians" think there are multiple ways to God, and heaven, but they couldn't be more wrong.

"Thus says The Lord of Hosts, to the generation of wrath: You know not the anger of The Lord, nor of My jealousy which burns in the fierceness of My wrath! For the Way of The Lord is not known, and the atrocities committed against the innocent you have hidden from your eyes; you refuse to see!
Therefore calamity shall not cease from before your eyes, and destruction shall increase in every corner! Destruction from on high shall increase before you, and the wrath of God shall chase you from behind! The strength of your heart shall give way, and you shall lie down heavily, until death comes to take you and darkness closes in.
And still the Way of The Lord is not known. Not one has heard the weeping of The Holy One, no one thirsts. Who has come out to drink? Who has eaten from this Tree? Who, among this lying generation, has opened their mouth in truth?! Who among you sees? Who among you knows? My messengers know, and My prophets have seen; behold, upon their lips I have placed the Word of Truth.
And still the Way of The Lord is not known! For the prophets of The Lord are hated, and those who call of themselves Christian persecute and slander My messengers without cause! Behold, My faithful servants are hated by My own people, and in the world they are cast off with rarely a mention! For the Way of The Lord is not known, and the fear of The Lord is forgotten!... This generation has no love for God in their hearts!
Therefore, thus says The Lord God: Behold the generation of My wrath! Look upon this great multitude of wicked and deceived peoples; look deep into this darkness! Take a lantern and search, go from house to house, and see if there is one who remembers The Way! See if there are any who know Me, if there is one who embraces Me as I truly am!
And yet the people say, “Where has all this darkness come from, and for what cause has all this violence come upon us? For what reason is all this devastation come upon us?!” Is this not the Day which was spoken of? Says The Lord. Is this not the Day prophesied throughout the generations, even from the beginning, that it should come? Is this not the Day of Clouds and Thick Darkness?! For I tell you the truth, it has come, all have entered in!
Behold, the outcry of the prophets has
Come forth, the Word of The Lord is here!...
It comes to pass before your eyes,
It increases and fills the earth!...
Therefore, hear the Word of The Lord and give heed!
Hear the Word of The Lord from aforetime, and of this day!
Hear the Call and the Testimony, and tremble
In fear at the Proclamation of The Lord!...
For the decree is sent down;
Judgment is set and ready to be poured out!
Lo, calamity has broken forth already, announcing the coming of The Holy One. His messengers prepare His way before Him, the earth trembles at His nearness. Lo, His hands gather His flock together, and His soft voice calls to His lambs... Behold, the house is broken into, yet who is aware of it?
Behold, the bundles are tied and set in their places, and still the people mock! And those called Christian say, “Are we not the chosen? Yes, we are the elect of God”... Woe, I say to you! Woe to you and all your arrogant houses; you have surely deceived yourselves!
Bow down therefore and humble yourselves,
Heed the call and depart from
Your filthy houses, and repent!...
Forsake all these man-made doctrines and
Perverse traditions, put away all these pagan holidays!...
STOP POLLUTING MY NAME AND MY GLORY!...
Stand apart from those who persecute My messengers
And mock My promises, and I may yet receive you!
Am I not The Lord God who sees, The One who knows? Yet My people hide their faces from Me, and cover their shame in an effort to appear righteous before men. Do I not search the hearts and minds, even to the innermost? Therefore who is it you seek to please, and for what cause do you wear all this fine apparel? For what reason do you wear these masks and cover your heads? For what purpose is this masquerade?!
For I tell you the truth, the sluggard is at ease among you, the so-called faithful worship themselves, and the supposed devout follow after men!
Am I not The Lord? And if I am The Lord your God, then how is it you seek after vain glories and refuse to accept Me as I am?! For vanity is a rope, and pride builds the gallows. Is not Haman your brother and Cain your close friend? And of their reward you have made yourselves fully worthy!
Is not wisdom justified by her children and wickedness the delight of fools? For I tell you the truth, death is at the door and the pit is dug deep, Gei-Hinnom waits patiently and Sheol is made ready, and the wicked shall be cast into it! THE EVIL OF HEART SHALL SURELY DESCEND INTO IT!
For death and wickedness are married, and the grave is never full. By evil deeds do the wicked consummate their union, by their every word do they confirm their agreement, until the fire consumes them and darkness hides them away. For the place of the deceased is known, yet those consumed by the fire shall never be found. They shall cease to exist, their names blotted out forever."
~
"Thus says The Lord: Behold, the corrupt doctrines of the churches of men have crept into every corner; near and far, the doctrine of hell and eternal torment is embraced by the people.
Yet I tell you the truth, this doctrine is a loathsome spot on every garment worn in the name of truth! A detestable wrinkle within the tapestry of My glory! A horrible interwoven thread by which those who call of themselves Christian pollute My name and mar My image before the people, propagating that which came forth from the mouth of the dragon!
THIS DOCTRINE IS EVIL! And must be opposed by all who have received the love of the Truth. For I have indeed spoken to this generation, even as I have spoken in all times past. For I AM THE LORD, The Light in whom there is no darkness at all."
@@mikefanofmovies
I do not recognise your scripture as from the Bible?
@@edwardlongfellow5819 "That which you call the Old Testament was indeed written through My servants and prophets of old, and all who were wise gave heed, obeying the writing thereof. Yet even then that which would come to be written in the New Testament already existed, awaiting the day I would send out My apostles and prophets to proclaim the Good News. Was it the Old Testament? No. It was the New Testament, never before seen, heard or published. And now the time has come for Me to send out My apostles and prophets once again, to announce My coming and to set all these crooked paths straight; behold, it is time to blow the Trumpet and prepare My way before Me.
Does that which My messengers proclaim agree with the Bible? Yes. For the words in these Letters are My words; as are the words in your Bible My words, though they have been greatly misinterpreted and mistranslated by men. Therefore put no difference between them. For to reject any part of My Word is to reject the whole. I tell you the truth, the three books are one, one on-going testament to My glory.
Thus much of what My servants proclaim, you have already heard. Yet they will also declare that which you have not heard (nor have you understood, because of man’s doctrine in you). Therefore, again I say to you, what My prophets of the end of this age write is indeed new to many, yet remains in perfect agreement with the prophets of old. For I do not change; I shall surely make My plans known."
~
"Yet that which I speak at present must be put first. Thus that which is contained in the Volumes of Truth is foremost, and must be brought to the forefront for all to behold. Not that this Word is at all superior; neither shall it be considered inferior to My Word found in the Scriptures of Truth. For My Word is My Word; all I speak is Scripture and Truth. And that which I speak in the hearing of My prophets is written and put forth for the generation in which it is to be received, foremost, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear.
And as it was in all times past, when I spoke by My servants, the prophets, and they in turn both wrote and spoke My words aloud, saying, “Thus says The Lord,” so it is at this time also, even during the end of this age which is upon you.
Again, I say to you, that which proceeds from My mouth at present is foremost, and shall not be put second to My Word spoken aforetime. Neither is one a foundation for the other, as though the Word proceeding from My own mouth is in need of anything to uphold it; nor is any other witness required to prove My Word as My own, when I Myself have spoken it... MY WORD STANDS! Therefore, let My present Word be shown to be in full agreement with My former Word. For it is indeed in perfect agreement with My Word as it was, yet runs straight in comparison with that which men have made crooked.
Here is wisdom few have considered, nor have they understood: If one who confesses Me lacks discernment, on account of ears which remain dull of hearing and eyes which remain dim in seeing, let them test My Word by My Word only. For any who test outside My Word, according to the words or doctrines of men, shall fail and be found in contempt before The Lord. For I alone sit as judge. Indeed, they have failed to see that My Word in the Volumes of Truth, also being called the Letters, is the rod by which the translations of men are to be tested, a light which shines upon the doctrines of men to expose them, revealing them to be blasphemies and heresies before God, all of which shall burn up in the Day, when the fire comes to test the quality of each man’s work.
Therefore, if one professing faith be wise,
He shall humble himself before Me,
Calling upon the name of The Holy One
For knowledge, in where all understanding
Flows to the truly contrite and penitent,
Flowing in pure testimony, free from corruption...
And by this only shall one be wise in the reading,
Comparing that which was given with that
Which is put forth once again, discerning
The Source and The Author to be the same...
One Word, One Book,
One on-going Testament to My glory;
By no means shall it be divided into three!...
Says The Lord."
That's because they listen to the likes of Joel Olsteen.
Thank you for these wise words. I do fall into these categories. Lately, I've been closer than ever to God than ever before. I feel better because of my renewed faith in God. Jesus is my savior. I stand by the Bible 100%. I repent of my sins. When I do sin, it is like a nightmare I don't feel good about them anymore. So, repentance makes me see the light. I sin less. I'm letting the fruit grow. I'm walking the path. I know I'm going in the right direction now. Praise the Lord🙏😁
Beautiful testimony! I stand with you 100%. The most precious desire of the heart.
I love how you not only focus on the love of God but that we need to do our part as well. I feel like so many pastors do not stress that we need to be obedient and follow and they only talk about how loving God is.
Eph 2:8-10 ....Only jesus can save us. We cant be saved by ourself.

@Austin Hartford
I love when you idiots argue and fight and argue over silly doctrine. Keep up the good works. 😝
@Austin Hartford, faith without works, is dead.
@Austin Hartford, James 2:26.
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead.
@Austin Hartford, yes... To answer your question. You can show your faith by works. These are the things you must do. I appreciate you pointing out James 2. I've read it over. God says to love your neighbor. Show them compassion. I embrace this.
@Austin Hartford, read all of James 2. In James 2:26 says, For the body without spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead.
Dear God,
Forgive us for drifting away from you, for allowing other things to become more important in our lives. Help us to live aware, to choose wisely, to stay close to you, and anchored in your Truth. Apart from you, we have no hope. Thank you for your great love and mercy, thank you that you wait for us, that you call us to yourself, and you strengthen us in our weakness. Thank you that you alone are our Refuge and Safety, and you fill us with hope. We come to you today, choosing to walk in your Presence and Light.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
Amen
Your prayer was very inspirational and I felt called to pray it while I was reading it. Afterward, I prayed it again but substituted the plural words like 'us, we, our' and prayed 'me, I, my'. Thank you for sharing this prayer and may your life be filled with His love.
Amen
I Beleive that the Lord has died for US He Has Risen AMEN ❤️❤️❤️
As a Christian for over 4 decades, I can genuinely say I can respond AFFIRMATIVELY to the questions you pose! I'm an elderly widow now, and praise God, our 2 children who are now middle aged are saved, too! I believe fervently in ALL of the Bible, and I am GRATEFUL to Jesus Christ to have entered the NARROW GATE and press on to obey my Lord! My late husband was saved also, and I look forward to seeing him in glory! I'm one of the few who entered the NARROW GATE, praise Jesus!

Wish more preachers had your courage and conviction in lovingly conveying the truth about Lordship. Luke 6:46 and Gal 2:20. (Thanks for including repentance as a change of mind)
Christianity begins w the mind
@@AvaNoe the christian life begins with being born again.
Amen to that
@@webbangel2054 we’re saying the same thing, Romans 12 calls for a transformation thru the renewing of our minds.
Lordship Salvation is a wicked heresy that’s no different than Catholicism and Mormonism. Yes we should respond to Christ as Lord. But you have people teaching that you need to have good works to be saved.
I am saved I believe and not only believe, but I give my mind my body and my soul to our Lord Jesus!
"Many professing Christians want the benefits of Christianity without subscribing to its belief and behaviour" ( along with the struggles)
Powerful brother Allen. New Age Christianity is the new trend. Especially my fellow youth believers.
Behavior has nothing to do with being saved that’s where he’s wrong..salvation is based on faith and grace alone NOT THAT OF OUR WORKS (behaviors). Someone could follow every law in the Old Testament and still go to hell if they havent believed in Jesus alone
Anytime I get quizzed on my Salvation I keep coming back to the fact I am saved. I think God just likes to reassure us.
Pastor Parr...I'm forever grateful you've brought ALL THESE POINTs up here ..I've had so MANY DISCUSSIONS on almost every point here ..AND BTW..Love the format here ...It's almost like we are watching your channel grow up! As always THANK YOU FOR YOUR HEARTFELT LOVE FOR ALL..GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS ..
My husband and I just discovered your channel tonight. This was so great. Honestly I thought I hope it’s not something I’m doing. No, but as Christians we are compelled to examine our motives and actions. Thank you for the reminder. Looking forward to watching more videos. Blessings.
John :
14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”

5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Today SUNDAY RESURRECTION worship day was GREAT !
"" I AM the RESURRECTION ! ""
John 11 : 25
What EXACTLY did
Allen Parr say that was nit picking......?
Our God is like “you are all in, or not at all”
And this is actually good news!
Because the same we shall expect from Him.
Once you are His, He is with you all the way.
And that’s the kind of relationship we all want and need. No compromises. In/Out. Simple.
Thank you for this message. It’s about time the world hear this.
P.S. hey Allen, your thoughts on the Sabbath…can you make a video about that?
Very interested to hear your take on it.
Couldn't agree more. It's comforting to know that God will never leave us or forsake us and if we have put our faith in Christ that we belong to him and nothing can snatch us out of his hand.
But are you really all in? Would you put your family's life on the line for a test from God? If you say no, then you are being honest with yourself that no one can commit to anyone full time, which many have found out already. Also, is God always with you? A father to a child is supposed to love and nurture, and thats to all of his children, even if they despise their father or curse his name. Being that humanity is his children, is that true?
I'm sure he has already posted on the subject of sabbath. If you search in his channel, you should be able to find something
Saturday is the Sabbath day.
I think he has... but christ is the cure podcast has an episode on the sabbath for new covenant believers that calmed my heart!
Thank you. God showed me this video this moment, the moment I am still a newbie Christian. I really want to know more about Christianity and your channel helps me so much!
I’ve been struggling with a lot of things lately. I just finally quit a job that was destroying me, messing with my relationship, and really screwing with my mental health. I am still suffering from what that workplace has done to me. Please pray for me. I really need it right now.
It has been 9 months since you have written this. I just prayed for you before writing this. I hope you are doing better now than you were 9 months ago. Be at peace and God bless.
Being honest with God 100% and with yourself is the beginning of a new life in Christ 👑
Hi brother how are you doing now. I know your comment is a year ago but I have experienced exactly the same thing with my employment.
Romans 10:9-11 KJV 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.
Did u work at Amazon?
Was nervous before the video. Then I saw the questions, for those who are struggling. I’m praying for you and I encourage you to reject the world’s view on what God has always Condemned. My love and God’s love ❤️
I hear you about being nervous but when he asked the questions, I was joyful because I know, without doubt Jesus is my Lord and Savior.
Thank you.
All glory be to our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus! “Don’t do buffet Christianity.” Very convicting and true. We all need to examine ourselves and the gate is narrow, as you point out from the Word of the one true God. Also, ask the Holy Spirit for revelation and conviction before/while reading His Scripture. Thank you! 🙌🏽❣️
P
@Austin Hartford you don’t know me and you’re disappointed in me? 🤔😂 I could point out many verses from the Word of God to correct you, but I will let you do your own research and let the Holy Spirit do the conviction. That is of course, if He actually lives in you 🤷🏽♀️ Also, I did not read the rest of your reply. I figured if the first couple of sentences make no sense, the rest must be just as wrong. Take care and God bless! 👋🏽
Please do NOT get v or tested or your temperature be measured. The v and tests are the mark of the beast. There is no forgiveness for those that got v or tested. If you are facing the situation at your workplace whether to take the v/tests or not, please quit the job. Losing one's soul, is not worth it. Religious exemption will also not work forever. Ask the Lord for confirmation. Don't give in when someone forces you. Be it family, friends or employer, do not give in. Examine the preachers and TH-cam channels you listen to and unsubscribe to the channels that do not help you in your walk with the Lord. The rapture is after the tribulation. Persecution is coming. Ask if you have any questions. The body of Christ is the third temple. No building. Be careful which church you go to. Pray, Fast and read the bible as never before.

I'm not a Christian. I'm a sinner. Lord Jesus have mercy on me
Oh my goodness! I was literally JUST thinking about this very topic while laying in bed last night!
This is solid biblical teaching. A powerful, timely message! We can't pick and choose what we want from the Word of God.
It's not solid biblical teaching. This type of Christianity is called "Jesus plus something else." In this teaching, faith in Jesus is not enough. Our salvation does not depend on what Jesus did, but it also includes our behavior and understanding. Basically he's saying that if someone doesn't behave or understand correctly, they may not be saved. This is not the Gospel (good news), it's actually very bad new.
"Then they asked him, 'What must we do to do the works God requires?' Jesus answered, 'The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.'” John 6:28-29.
Too many Christians get caught up in New Testament legalism. We live by faith, no longer by the law. Christians have been picking and choosing for 2000 years. Every denomination picks and chooses. It's a very human thing to do. It doesn't mean it's correct, or that we don't sometimes pick and choose incorrectly. Of course we do. That's why Jesus had to die. God knew we couldn't ever, ever, get it right.
@@daniellazo888 so if we believe in the One (the Son) He (the Father) has sent, we don’t do as He has told us in His Word? 🤔 Through faith in Jesus He saves us. But if we’re truly born again Christians, the Holy Spirit gives us conviction and revelation while reading His Word., during prayer, watching a video on TH-cam, talking to a friend, etc. Sending blessings your way 💕
@Mike Zielinski Yes, sanctification and justification are different things.
@@yessierootedinchristlovean5356 Justification and sanctification are different. Better title for this video might be "If you're doing this one thing, you might be in the early stage of sanctification."
We are justified (saved) by grace through faith. Nothing more.
We "do" what he told us increasingly more as we are sanctified by the Spirit, but this is a process that can take years, decades, even a lifetime.
@@daniellazo888 Yes, it takes time. I’m so grateful the Lord is patience with us 🙌🏽❣️
The biggest scam is to tell people they're sinful and there's a better place after death, but to be saved a spot they must make donations.
That's called the prosperity gospel, the money will save you thing, and also money
Donations will get you more money from God.
The Bible only said you need to acknowledge Jesus is the way to life. And of course the evidence that you are changed is striving to live a holy life
I choose not to gamble with my soul. Amen 🙏🏾 Thanks Allen
Beautiful name!
How can u gamble? Just trust in the blood of Jesus.
@@beanteam2217 faith without works is dead
@@lovelynsdiaries8510 James isn’t saying faith without works doesn’t exist. James is using “dead” to show ineffectiveness . A faith i. Christ if you don’t provide for your bother and sister in need will not be effective.
Faith without works means the believer suffers loss in this life and loss at the bema seat. Jesus will not reward that believer nor will they reign with him.
If you believe your works must be there to be saved
You have not believed the gospel
Be blessed
@@lovelynsdiaries8510 sounds like u haven’t trusted in the gospel. Literally the only thing required for salvation. Let go of your pride

5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Matthew 5-7 and onward.
@@nzifb7409 James 2: 20-24 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video! So, many ppl confess to be Christian, but refuse to acknowledge that Christianity is an exclusive faith!! It’s not a buffet! You spoke it exactly! In today’s inclusive culture ppl need to know Jesus is exclusive!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Really good video. The world constantly changes, but God never does.
I talk to God all the time. If it wasn't for the trinity I would be so lost...the holy spirit guides me every day...thank you for your honest and God spoken videos.
A video that is clearly needed for our age. Progressive Christianity is sweeping across the world. Thanks, Bro Parr.
I watched this, and answered yes to all the questions. I’m not just in it for the perks, I’m in it to trust my Heavenly Dad! I felt like I was never going to do enough in order to be truly saved, but after watching this, I feel a lot more peace of mind. I very much feel I’m in the right track! Thank you!
Lord, i need help with certain sins , but i love him so much
I love this video so much cause I’ve been in the position telling this to some Christian friends that they can’t pick what work for them it’s a full package I have to share this 😇😇

Watching this video, made me cry so much. I really want my family to be saved, so many people in my life are doing this, and it really scares me. Please pray for my family. God bless, and have a good day.
Matthew 18:19 (nkjv) Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.
Father, my sister Christina and I ask that You would save her family. Lord, open-up their hearts to receive You and give them a hunger that thirst for Your Word. And, Lord, please give my sister Christina peace, and deliver her from the spirit of fear. We ask these things in the mighty name of Jesus, and agree that they shall be done.
Thank you Father. Amen.
Intercede for your family, as the Holy Spirit leads you, Christina.
I’m not a Christian cause God never told me to be one….But he did tell me to be a Disciple because there is a biblical mandate for that!!! ❤
Preach!!!!! Take it or leave it 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 for me and my household we will serve the Lord 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you so much brother Allen! You narrowed it down just right. This is what I’ve been trying to explain to my daughter that abiding in Christ is not about abiding when you want to, it’s continual, perseverance of the saints.
I really appreciate this video. Wisdom, knowledge and Enlightenment.
"You can't just pick and choose what you want on your plate" - very well said!
Amen brother Allen, great video, we cannot pick and choose what to abide by and expect to be a Christian
Good stuff brother! May the Lord return soon! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. God bless you!
Amen 🙌
This was so helpful. I'm always trying to examine my heart and make sure that I'm being a Disciple of Jesus.
Thank you for this information I will try to become a better Christian and a better person from this video ❤🙏
Another encouraging video. As a Christian I was curious to find out what this thing is which cancels our salvation and now I am edified in Christ. Thanks Pastor Allen
Thanks! This needed to be said by someone with a large following. Finally!
I applaud your boldness and intentionality here. You clarified the position perfectly. Well said, Sir.
This is a good message but the alarmist clickbait title is a bit obnoxious
Thank you so much for pointing this out. You couldn't have picked a more perfect time! The whole world needs to see this!! Thank you & may God continue to bless your ministry in Jesus name 🙌🏿 We NEED to be Bold in Christ! Our souls depend on it 🙏🏿
This is a solid test. Thank you, brother Allen!
What an enlightenment, this is a solid viewpoint of what is happening today with this generation of Christians. Thank you for reminding each and everyone of us!
Awesome Video! I am a Saved Human Being! Praise The Lord for his Truths!
As always, I appreciate your honesty and willingness to be candid about God's word and what He says about how we are supposed to live. SO GOOD! I'm sharing this with my entire family 👍🏾❤😊
@Austin Hartford You sound like you didn't really listen to this video. I really hope you take time to listen again. Pastor Parr is one of the few pastors I have found who actually preaches the Bible and not his feelings and supplemental materials only! Instead of posting your argument, maybe you should ask for clarification if you don't understand something that was said. I've grown spiritually and have a better understanding of the word since I started listening to Pastor Parr. I've shared and discussed his content with my family and share his teaching often with friends.
My relationship with Christ has grown closer and I read my bible more.
I think we should uplift one another instead of argue. If you interpret the word of God to be different than what Pastor Parr is literally reading, send him a message to inquire. That's what I would do. Inquire respectfully instead of posting combative posts in the comments. Hopefully you'll gain clarification and understanding. Pray about it as well. I'll be praying for you too.
I hope Pastor Parr keeps posting God's truth as long as he feels led to do so. We need more teachers that are willing to say what God says instead of what the world says. While you're praying, don't forget to pray for Pastor Parr too. Uplift first! Let's not tear one another down.
This was a very good video. Hopefully, it'll be a wake-up call to all who need to hear it. To anyone struggling with their Christian walk, it is hard sometimes, but keep going. Never give up. Allow God to work on your soul and one day you will be who He wants you to be.
Brother Allen, I can see the Spirit was speaking through you in this message because it is one that needs to be said. We all need to look at our hearts and ask if we are truly following God's word. As you said, this is something for all believers to decide for themselves though. We can seek out wise counsel of course but ultimately we need to seek God and repent of our sins. I fear too many in the church are aiming to please others and to please the world, instead of pleasing the Audience of One!

I think your video was clear, concise and truthful. No sugar coating, you nailed it in my humble opinion. I’m going thru a hard time in my life, but my trust in God has given me that peace the Bible speaks of. Thank you Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit.
Thank you for this message, brother Allen. By God's grace, I answered yes to all the questions asked. God has really made me understand His word more than ever during this pandemic.
Please help me pray for a certain friend of mine who practices "Buffet Christianity". She accepted Christ earlier than I did. I did rebuke her but it ended up damaging our friendship. Thank you and God bless you! ❤️
1. First, I want to say that I heartily support the main argument of this video. It is very important and timely. I just have a couple of criticisms for my brother on how it was communicated.
2. I'm not sure that the click-baity "this one thing," "wait till the end of the video while I list some things" tactics which come out of on-line advertising are a good thing to see being utilized concerning Biblical teaching. This is more a cultural/stylistic criticism than anything really substantive.
3. I do think, however, that it's a bad idea to make, as you seemed to state at one point, "what has been held near and dear for almost 2000 years," a standard of proper belief or practice. People have been practicing infant baptism for longer than Protestants have (correctly) rejected it as un-biblical. There are things that crept in during the time of the Apostles that are still being taught or practiced today that are un-biblical. Tradition and ancient practice should not be the guide.
4. It is helpful to ask, "Is homosexual *activity* sin" rather than just, "Is homosexuality sin." Activity is sin. Temptations and tendencies are not sins. Having homosexual impulses (what the world calls "being Homosexual") does not equal committing sin. Actually giving into and/or accepting these impulses is the sin. It may seem like splitting hairs, but it is important for people with such impulses to realize that we are not condemning them for the feelings they are having so we can help them overcome the actual sinful lifestyle and behaviors. I believe some people come to adulthood with certain tendencies toward specific sins. (Gluttony is more of a temptation for me than for some, so I have to be extra careful concerning food, for example) If we condemn them for these temptations rather than condemning sinful behavior itself, we are hurting them instead of helping them.
I trust you already know this point and agree with it. It is important to put it into practice in how we speak, however.
I couldn't agree more. Especially with the second point. I always feel troubled seeing "Christian" TH-camrs jumping along the bandwagon of clickbaits. What for? To gain views from their fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Idk about yall, but that's not how the holy spirit moves within us. Just go straight to the point without confusing the viewers or perhaps letting them roam the entire room before the destination. Fix your eyes, brother.
What you are saying about the act and the temptation make sense
May GOD help us to be wise and get only better
Brilliantly explained.
Great message ! Jesus did say ,” who ever wants to be my disciple must deny himself pick up their cross and follow me .”
QUESTION : did you read ALL OF MATTHEW 16
Or did you just pull the part that you want OUT OF CONTEXT
Jesus didn't just say whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and pick up their cross and follow me
READ IT AGAIN.... Keep reading beyond that point
i'm sure you'll find a part that says something to the effect of ... IF THEY LOSE THEIR LIFE FOR ME THEY WILL FIND IT
it's not about picking up a cross
i'ts not about dying on the cross
i'ts about givng your life to and for christ
all i'm saying is.... People make a habit of cherry picking parts of the bible THAT SUITS THEM without reading it in context and without reading the entire chapter
Try this sometime, i'm sure you'll see things in a different light
PICK A PASSAGE, ANY PASSAGE
then... figure out what you think it means
THEN... READ THE ENTIRE BLOODY CHAPTER
and i'm sure it'll paint a different picture
@Austin Hartford
The first problem christians have is
THEY NEED TO COME TO A COMMON UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT REGARDING THE BIBLE, SALVATION, BEING SAVED AND WHAT THE STORY IS
Until a unified story is obtained there is really is absolutely not point debating it with each other and quoting the bible on this or that because it easily opens the door to them saying to you, yeah but what about this part of the bible etc etc
and even though i side with you on this topic, i still say Christianity has a lot of stuff to work out before it can worry about eternal life
Christianity as i see it now is like a bunch of children running around saying
Yeeeaaah, naaahh, and never logically agreeing on anything
i mean christians can't even agree on a simple fundamental like
which one of these statements is true
IS GOD ONE ENTITY AND JESUS ANOTHER
or
IS JESUS, GOD AND GOD IS JESUS AND THEY ARE ONE
the entire religion is so messed up it's not funny and no one has ever bothered to stop and say HANG ON , WE NEED TO GET TOGETHER AND WORK THINGS OUT AND FIND A COMMON PATH
This is about Discipleship (something IMO isn't even possible in the present world, considering Jesus is no longer on Earth), not Salvation
