Hey brother I was wondering your thoughts on how to reconcile the salvation of dahmer and the damnation of his victims because of homosexuality. That's if dahmer was saved.
I love this pastor. He seems to know his Bible well and shows some great wisdom in how he applies the scripture. like how he doesn't treat dahmer as a notch on his evangelistic belt but as a work of God above all.
@@BriannaLifeCoach to show that even the worst kinds of people can still be saved. when lost should i just give up and live a life of doing drugs/alcohol abuse and causing my family difficulty? or should i Repent and believe the Gospel and be saved and love and help those around me. so u know im Saved now and no longer walk In darkness. Praise the LORD
About a week ago my wife asked, how could Dahmer be saved? It just seems not possible for someone like him. I said, if Jesus can't save Dahmer there's no hope for any of us.
Saving repentance is realizing that you are a sinner deserving of God's just punishment in Hell and turn (repent) from whatever you trusted in before, if indeed you trusted in anything; to trusting in the person and finished work of Christ alone for salvation.
We are supposed to only if you do it without God its not really on his behalf and we have a tendency to judge unrighteously being unrighteous. This is why Christ taught us how to judge. Matthew 7.5, Leviticus 19.16 John 7.24, 1 corinthians 6.3. We shouldn't "play" when it comes to God
“Gods thoughts are higher than our thoughts” and “Lean not on your own understanding.” This means being open to the fact, our opinions of another could be wrong. Have you ever had your trust betrayed? We can believe a person, wholeheartedly, only to find out later they were lying to us. They betrayed our trust. We got it wrong. Never think highly of our opinions, or the opinions of others. “Lean not on your own understanding.” Meaning- Remain skeptical of your own opinions.
When I first heard Jeffrey Dahmer had accepted Christ and been baptized, I cried and praised God that he is so full of grace and power to redeem even the most wicked of men. I look forward to meeting my brother in eternity.
Did you listen to this interview or think critically about any of the details surrounding this? To cry…then look forward to meeting him? Just from hearing this “news” about a person with severe mental illness?
You don't have even the faintest idea of the meaning of any of the words you just said in that comment and that is why you are content to trivialise and desecrate scripture like that.
@@Ephesians-yn8ux First off, let me pause while I think about which deflection tactic will work best in this specific narrative at this time and place. Second, let me preface my main point by reminding you that I’m a super good guy who hates bad things. I am many things, but a monster good sir…is not one of them!!! I will defend the flag of truth till my dead hands no longer posses the strength needed to fight this battle against the wiles of the devil. If just one person is kept from ensnaring themselves in the thicket of evil and unrighteousness, than this life will not have been sacrificed for nought. 3rd…What if the victims or their loved ones kinda deserved this for something they did that we don’t know about? Or like, what if God used this terrible person to do these terrible things, and that kept even more terrible things from happening. YES!!!! This is the best one!!! “For god meant it unto good”.
Dude I love you. I worked in prison for eight years and know the grace of God and how he forgives the worst of sinners myself included. It's good to see an encouraging word.
God is amazing! Can I ask if resources like "Prison Fellowship" was available to you and if so did it help you? It's an organization I give to and I hope it's doing good things for those in need in our prison system. God bless man!
@@thegospelmeetslife.2021 this gives me a lot of hope, man. The Lord has called me to join the Sheriff's Office and I'll be in the detention center for at least two years. I feel like I'm going on the mission field. Your short story here is very encouraging.
Since gods forgiven you, you can let go of your attachment to sin. You say you’re among the worst sinners? There’s no way your sin is close to what jefferey did. Is there?
I agree that this topic is very important for people to know that you don't earn your way somebody in prison for horrific crimes can still be saved and he didn't earn it
This!! This is exactly what the world needs more of right now. God bless this man who baptized Jeff and for you/your team for proclaiming the message of grace, mercy and forgiveness.
I have no problem with Jeffrey Dahmer being a Christian saved by Grace. This should bring joy to every Christian, if Dahmer can be saved, that shows the Grace & Mercy Our Father gives to us all. Praise the Lord!!!
Why would it bring me joy? i dont have to answer to GOD for Jeffrey's sins, or even YOUR sins! I have to answer for MY sins. I find it sad! what better advertisement for the world than: sin as much as you want for as long as you want! as long as you repent at the end, then all is kosher! Some of you are so HOLY you are NO earthly good! I am still a justice and righteousness kind of guy! Striving to live right for GOD should actually have some meaning!
I wanna hug this guy. Beautiful interview. I’ve recently made some mistakes that seem unforgivable. God continues to show me the depths he’ll go to pull me out of a grave. There’s none like our savior❤️
I first read about dahmer when I was in 7th grade (I’m 28 now) and it of course disturbed me very very deeply and I remember tuning the whole school computer off because I was so scared of the Wikipedia page I had just read. Ever since then I have avoided reading or watching anything to do with dahmer but I decided to listen to this and I’m so glad I did. This pastor has great biblical knowledge and hearing him speak God’s Word into this situation has given my mind finally peace on this. Im so thankful I feel a weight lifted off of me I can’t explain it. This interview was not clickbait or sensationalized at all - it is just honest questions honest answers and seeing God’s amazing grace in the darkest of places and hearing inspiring testimony of men who do His work.
Yup. I was never disturbed by Dahmer. I only learned of him recently. By random people's mentioning serial killers. Ted Bundy I learned his name as child. But not Jeffery Dahmer. Either way I'm glad he's in heaven..amen I'm a horrible sinner too. I just want the same genuine repentance Jeffrey has.
I remember the day they caught him. I was working in Columbus Ohio and my gf’s father asked me, “did you hear what they found in Jeffery’s freezer?” No. “A Dahmernose pizza.”😝 He never scared me cuz we were gankstas in them days. We hung deep with some rough dudes and we all had each others backs.
THAT ENDING WAS SO CUTE??? 😭😭😭 man, this interview really blessed me. he is so right about all of us having done things out of our mind. I immediately thought back to when I was a teen/young adult and did things impulsively because I wanted the rush and the validation and such. now that I'm more adult I am sickened by my foolishness and sin. I definitely cried while watching the videos about Jeffery. God's power to make us new is astounding and humbling. conversion truly is a miracle and I thank Jesus for giving us this amazing covenant in His blood.
That’s what I’m talking about good to see people forgive and also forgive their own self too truly a blessing to see people forgive Jeff and people like him there is always hope and a way to change for the better very well said
I was patiently waiting for this interview. It really hit home for me. My brother was murdered a little over 25 years ago. It never ripped my family apart but I thank God for Jesus because when this happen I was saved and disciple of Jesus. God helped me walk through and gave to grace to forgive. This Pastor did a great job explaining his interaction with Jeffrey Dahmer. I am so thankful Jeffrey was introduced to Jesus and received forgives from the father!!! Powerful testimony.
@@skwills1629 A preacher (one who proclaims) preaches the Word of God; it's not a title or position. A Pastor is an overseer who teaches the Word of God. Anyone can preach or proclaim the message of the Gospel, but Pastors are in positions of authority He has a congregation, therefore, he is a Pastor.
@@stjohnssoup - He is Clearly not a Pastor. The Churches Of Christ do not have Pastors. And Again, Calling Him Pastor assumes he is seen By his Congregation as the Central leader. he is not. That is not how the Churches of Christ Work. All Baptised men have Equal Say.
If only everyone in the world had a friend like this man to patiently answer their questions and explain salvation through grace, there would be millions more who would someday retire in paradise. May we all strive to do the same and share the good news to others.❤
@@formsab257 that's not him. Never even claimed to be him. Look at the username. Just click the three dots, and report it. This happens all over TH-cam
Amen! Romans 10:9-10 King James Version 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.
This made me cry and ask some very deep questions. I bought the pastor's book and it's very emotional thinking about how lost in the beyond someone can be yet still this pastor was put in Dahmer's life as a testament to mercy and the challenging concept of forgiveness. This whole interview is beautiful and sensitively done for everyone affected by this tragic situation.
but the guy seems incoherent. he either doesn't answer the questions, gives answers that don't make sense or responds with delusions by saying things that he and christians would want to hear. he didn't even answer whether or not jeffrey could be in heaven. just saying
This is one of the best interviews I have ever seen. God Bless you Jon and your ministry, the pastor, and everyone involved. I believe that many will find this video helpful in their journeys. God Bless us all 🙏🏾
@@TimothyC.84 - For One Thing, in The Churches Of Christ the Preacher can be Any Baptised Man. They are also not ordained in Any Way. For another, He does not lead the Congregation. A pastor is Generally understood as a Central Spiritual Authority. The Man Who Acts as Lord of The Manner or Governor or Mayor. He is in Charge in Some way. That simply does not Exist in The Churches Of Christ. The Elders generally Govern, and an Elder is All of The Baptised Men. The preacher doesn't even Always Administrate the meetings. I have Attended Churches where The preacher has less Influence than some other members. This "Pastor" would not Actually Govern The Church. He'd simply Work for the Church by Fulfilling a Specific Role and Carrying Out the Needed Functions.
I'm no theologist or psychiatrist by any means but,I've always felt that serial killers and what society deems the worst of the worst were,if not possessed definitely driven by demonic forces and therefore in desperate need of deliverance. Just my opinion
Agreed. I’ve had deliverance from many demons. I’ve also witnessed many demons manifest in people. Tracy Edward’s testimony totally solidifies demon possession. In fact, Jeffrey’s 😢story is textbook demon possession. Including his inability to even find the why behind the tragedies he committed. Thank God we serve a God full of mercy and forgiveness. 🙌🏾💚
You are absolutely right. He needed a strong prayer to have that demon cast out... Just the way Jesus cast out demons in the past... I can't believe this pastor does not have spiritual discernment enough to see it... His heinous acts alone will tell you that he had legions of demons living in him.
Wow!! So incredible you were able to interview him. I cancelled Netflix a few years ago but got it again only to watch Dahmer. Some believers might find it strange...but I'm a huge true crime fanatic. I also have a psychology degree, so my interest in these things also tie into my faith when it comes to the Lord being fully just. I got assigned Jeffery Dahmer's case in one of my psychology classes years ago. It was all about the "why". My essay ended up being nearly 30 pages (from what I remember.) Although the show was disturbing & in so many scenes..I had to fast forward through them. The last episode hadn't left my mind. I was talking to everyone I knew about if his conversion was true. The fact is...we will not know until we make it to heaven. But the thought baffled me. It caused me to truly humble myself. "If you hate your brother, you've committed murder in your heart"...kept coming to mind. I battled all these questions since I watched that episode. There was something different about knowing what happened so well & seeing it play out on the screen that really slapped me in the face & made it more real for me. His crimes almost seem unbelievable. Thank you so much for this interview. I came out of it with a stronger sense of how God is in control & how I'm so unbelievably undeserving of His grace. It made me even more grateful for it. God bless yall!
I too am interested in true crime, from a psychological point of view, not just from the perpetrator/s of the crime, but the emotional and psychological and spiritual side from the victims ( if they have lived through whatever the crime maybe ) and their families and friends and also the perpetrators family and friends. It has fascinated me since I was a young child. however I don't watch crime programs with lots of gratuitous and gory re enactments. I follow cases, and when the story of Jeffry's case broke years ago, I was sickened by it. Soon after it was released I discovered the book, called "A Fathers Story" written by Jeffery's father. That book kept me following his story. How many parents of perpetrators take such a deep look inside themselves, to see where they have let their children down, to try face all the factors that may have, and that they personally, may have contributed to the outcome. I won't watch the Netflix account, I read a few peoples reviews and they found too much that was far too graphic, because of that, I believe Netflix is irresponsible and and is gratuitously sensationalising acts that don't need to be sensationalised in such a way. We can know about something that happened without having to be taken into the re-enacted moments in graphic detail of that kind of depravity. Not to be holier than thou, I just don't think it is really helpful in any circumstance and for any reason, other than to get viewers.
God has His people in all professions of life. Although a small percentage compared to that of the secular world, He has His people there despite that fact. Even in psychology 😊 praise the Lord 🙏🏾
He is not a Pastor. He is a Church Of Christ Preacher. They are not the same Thing. The Churches of Christ do not have ordained Clergy and The preacher is not the leader of a Congregation. And the Down To Earth Nature of His Manner is Characteristic of The Churches Of Christ in General. The Church tends to be Very Fact Focused and Intellectual. Namely owing to its Theology.
@@sunshinevibez6057 - I did not say That The Churches of Christ Deny the Existence of Demons. I said The Churches Of Christ do not Beleive Demons can Possess People in The Modern World. That is not the same Thing.
I read his book about Jeff and felt deep regret that he only had the strength to follow Jesus after such a dark journey. I reflected on the beauty of God's mercy, even though it doesn't free us from the consequences of our mistakes.✝️
@@sigururolafsson2257 and that was a mistake. the same way you sin against God. we all deserve the same. Hell. also if you have hated someone you are also a murderer. Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.1 JOHN 3:15 so are you a murderer or did you make a mistake?
@@sigururolafsson2257 yes. what did Jesus say when THEY WERE KILLING HIM. forgive them father they not know what they do. are you saying what adam and eve did wasnt a mistake? like they didnt get tricked into it? Ephesians 6:12 New King James Version 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of [a]the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places
@@TheHolsomback I'm not saying that when Adam and Eve disobeyed god that that was a mistake. I agree with you. Comparing a mistake to willfully sin I'm not so sure is right. It belittles the word "sin" that's all I'm saying.
Well maybe he did its hard to tell because psychopaths can actually understand what remorse is and even empathy problem is they just don't care about it. Else they would be poor at manipulating others.
@@Herr.P Dahmer wasnt a psychopath though. He had many mental illnesses, but psychopathy wasnt one of them. Unlike someone like Gacy or Bundy, he didnt take pleasure in the killing part. He even drugged his victims so they wouldnt feel pain. Thats a major difference from sadistic psychopaths. As twisted and horrible the things he did were, his motives and "morals" (if we can call em that) were very different from most serial killers.
@@edwardm9975 he recognized that he was dangerous. He knew and said he shouldnt be free. He had mental illnesses, it doesnt go away simply by praying to God.
People like dahmer are the people that need more love , and more God. Only God can judge. If he truly repented then I’m happy to welcome him as a brother in Christ.
It's people like you that gave him the confidence to just get on with doing séances to summon devil when he was fifteen, then later he probably thought, well, if so called Christians weigh evil that lightly I might as well get on with this now....Just because you name a feeling or an experience "love" that doesn't mean that's what it is....And just because you name something Jesus that doesn't make it Him.
But feeling sorry is not how we earn forgiveness, we cannot earn it. Psychopaths cannot even feel remorse. Jesus saves us, we can't do penance by feeling sorry.
This could very well end up being your highest viewed video. Good stuff! (I know that's not the point, I'm just saying. I hope this trends to get the good news out!)
God is the last thing on the minds of people who are doing evil, but when they actually do repent of their sins and have actual remorse that leads to repentance, Jesus IS there to receive them. That’s the good news: He’s there to recieve all of us. But we don’t go to Christ to continue sinning but to leave the life of sin behind us and learning and growing in JESUS.
@@run2cat4run that's absolutely evil and disgusting! Why would you even think like that, let alone say it? Seriously, what in hell are you thinking saying evil garbage like that. May the Lord rebuke you and bless you with discernment to see the error in your "thinking". Now go in peace and sin no more.
I am a Christian and before i was born again , I harshly judged Jeffery Dahmer. I was obsessed with telling everyone how messed up I thought he was and how it couldn't be possible that he could change. But being born again I have different eyes now. If he changed and came to christ he absolutely is in heaven. And I have no problem with that. Grace IS enough even for someone like him.
This was extremely powerful. A short time ago I did a video called "Did Jeffrey Dahmer Go to Heaven" which was in response to some critical comments I had received recently because of ex felons I feature on my podcast. Some people were admonishing "Jail house conversions" and I did the video to show that no one is irredeemable, no one is worthy - no not one... and YES if Jeffrey sincerely repented and accepted Jesus, he would go to heaven. The media and culture wants to focus on his crimes and the shocking nature of everything and sensationalize everything instead of the comparatively "boring" story of him being SAVED! The greatest story of all. Thank you for this interview, it was VERY well done!!!
@@petitluna2571 The line between heaven and hell is simply believing in Jesus Christ. If his victims did not believe that Jesus grants eternal life to those who believe in him, then they are in hell. Like Roy said, its uncomfortable to think about, but if Jesus cannot save Dahmer, then we are all doomed.
@@777wrath even if you youtself put your religious belief in these terms and cannot see what is wrong with it.. who could possibly help you? I'm glad this is all fantasy. If sth like that were the truth of life, imagine how monstruous, cruel, egocentric and sadistic a god we would have
It is the most imaginary, fictitious and full of wishful thinking story. It is a fairytale. And one of bad taste at that. Regarding dahmer's forgiveness, this can only be given by his victims. As for how much he was trying to be normal and to do the best he could to fix things, i have no doubt and religion served as a gesture for his psychological needs and as a symbol to the outside world of gis internal struggle and sincere quest. But, ultimately, he was incapable of true change as if he were released or never caught, he would not have stopped and he did noy go to heaven cause there is no heaven. But you kids seem to need these fairytales badly yo be able to face the desert of the realitiee of life and death
@@DeniseCoelhoEnglishForLife 👉God is the author of peace, charity, and all that is good. You irreligious, just like all the religious elite seek to establish your own righteousness by yourself; you would rather worship the creature more than the creator. The Apostles were boiled alive, nailed onto crosses, skinned alive, professing Christ until their last breaths. Now suddenly history becomes a fantasy? Get a grip. "Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen." - Romans 1:25 “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.” - 2 Peter 1:16 👉 Jesus Christ offers his own righteousness, that is given to those who believe on him. The only begotten Son of God promises eternal life for whoever believes on him. Once you believe, you are saved forever by God's mercy: "Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification." - Romans 4:23-25 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” - John 5:24
Thank you for this interview. Reminded me of Jonah and the Ninevites. Jonah didn't want to preach to the Ninevites because he knew that God's forgiveness is so great.. and he didn't want the Ninevites to be forgiven. All of us need forgiveness and I'm glad that Jeffrey's conversion seems genuine!
I cried watching this. This is one of the most important interviews I have seen and I wish everyone would see it and understand how valuable they are and that there’s a hope in this world we don’t have in anything else but God.
But what God, that's the problem, you probably think your God is greater than my god or a god from a different religion, to be honest God has caused the extinction of ancient races because people would fight over religion, so I don't think god as real thing will save people, maybe the concept of god , could help people
I cried when I saw the crime scene photos of him murdering, Raping , dismembering and eating all his victims. I cried when he drilled a hole in 14 year old boys head while he was alive and raped him repeatedly before eating him. I cried when god was nowhere to be found while this was happening. I cried when I read god doesn’t make mistakes and created him I cried when I read your stupid nieve message
As a Christian myself who knows we are saved by grace through faith and not by works, I was pondering that exact question John brought up about Jeffrey Dahmer being in heaven while some of his victims could possibly be in hell. The pastor’s answer was perfect, and made me wonder why I didn’t even see it that way to begin with. Belief on our Savior is the requirement, and it’s all a work of God, not our own. We should be praising God even more to know how much grace He gives us when we don’t deserve it, and He longs for a relationship with us. Hallelujah! ✝️💕🙌🏻
And yet, u seem unable to see the ugliness of that belief. How sadistic, cruel, unfair and egocentric a god would have to be. How it is even worse if that were the truth of life than if there were no Godm I am glad i dont share these crazy and immoral beliefs
@@DeniseCoelhoEnglishForLife We can rely on the Savior that has paid our sin debt in full or you can pay for your own sins for an eternity in torment. The choice is yours.
Fantastic work brother! I instantly saved this to favorites to share with others. I just so happened to watch My Friend Dahmer and the Tubi Original documentary on Jeff last night. I am sad to report that neither gave a glimpse into a spiritual conversion at all except to say that his grandmother was involved in him going to church prior to his primary killing spree. I could tell despite the former film being mainly about his tumultuous childhood, each missed the mark in many respects. Glad to see this add a much needed layer of depth to the man's life. This whole story was formative for me living as a legalistic young convert to the faith, that God could save such a one like this was a radical concept. We all make the mistake of comparing ourselves to others to feel good about our mess. The truth is, without God's grace to the believer and even the unbeliever we would all be infinitely more fallen than even Jeff. We all stand condemned before a Holy God who for whatever reason has saved us.
You are a skilled interviewer and good listener. Bless you for using your gifts for Jesus. This was so interesting and deep. I once heard someone say-When you get to heaven, you’ll be surprised by who’s there and surprised by who’s not there.
I'm NOT a religious person. But I feel extremely sorry for Jeffrey Dhamer. He was so lonely and his childhood was so sad. He must have felt so alone as a child and been so different, couldn't have been easy. 1what1 happened to his victims was terrible, but my heart goes out to Jeffrey. Watching g him on videos, you can feel the loneliness and emptiness.
I wonder if you’d felt so sorry for Jeffrey if one of the young men was your child. There’s plenty of lonely people out there that wouldn’t think it was a good idea to dismember someone’s body. He was mental. Don’t make excuses.
@@heavenreignsupreme How crazy is religion when he thinks he’s being forgiven and go the the magical place so he can be with the young men he dismembered.
@@diddsdaddiddsdad6865 true followers of Yeshua do not follow religion' we are people of the Holy one Jesus said for he preaches Holiness not Christianity Jesus was not nor preaches Christianity or Catholicism' we true followers of Yeshua do not attach ourselves to any man made religions' for it is the Yahweh who Judges all mankind.
@@diddsdaddiddsdad6865 wtf? his main motivation was to have complete control. i don’t see on any point why would he try to be forgiven just to see the men again? nonsense.
This is incredible material. Do not worry about the issues with the footage, this was really a blessing and helped me further my understanding of God’s unlimited grace, just after finishing the series. Thank you very much!
Amazing interview. I actually liked the raw element to it rather than it being fancier. Refreshing tbh. Thanks so much for this- I feel like my understanding of grace is on such a deeper level now. I think this is so important to see.
Just because Jeffrey didn’t believe in demons doesn’t mean that he wasn’t possessed. He was extremely evil L. Hope he was sincere in his repentance. Only God can judge him
This, hands down, provides absolute hope to those suffering from the guilt of their sins from the past and for those who are diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (one of the same disorders that Jeffrey was diagnosed with). Jesus loves the serial killer and the one with mental illness. No soul, no matter how depraved, is beyond God's reach. Praise God.
It amazes me to imagine when Jeff passed, Jesus may have said to him “welcome to paradise” what an amazing feeling Jeff may have had at that moment forever with his savior. I sincerely hope Jeff was saved. Thank you for this interview. It makes me believe more so that he lives today with God.
Don't worry about the video quality. We're just grateful for the content you provide. Great job! I can't believe you got him to say, "Whaddo you meme?" 🤣
I know you were unhappy about the footage and camera angles Jon but the important part is that you got the audio intact from this interview. This could have been a podcast recording and I still would have listen to it. Thank you for interviewing Pastor Roy, the lesson that we are never too far to receive God’s grace is definitely one we need to hear over and over again.
he is not "Pastor Roy". I Know Evangelicals have a Tendency to refer to their Pastors by their First name, but its Jarring. Especially since he is not even a Pastor. The Churches of Christ do not have Pastors.
This is one of the best interviews about God's Grace and salvation that I have had the privilege to watch. It raises issues that we would like left unsaid and to some degree reveals how we view sin. We Christians , myself included, fail to understand how far from God we really were before we gained salvation. For me it also highlights how much God has forgiven me and yet how unwilling I can be to forgive others.
Truly an amazing video. Truly an amazing interview. This pastor is definitely one of the greats. I think when it comes to Christianity when most people realize that Dahmer believed and was saved I think it will either shatter your morality about Christianity or it will just make you believe in Christianity that much more. Because believing in somebody like Jeffrey Dahmer. Being saved. And him being in heaven it really puts into perspective that God truly cares about everyone no matter how much they have sin
@@run2cat4run all people are bad. God doesn't save good people, because there aren't any. That's why we need to be saved. Romans 3:21-27 21 But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, [9] through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished-- 26 he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus. 27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On that of observing the law? No, but on that of faith.
@@run2cat4run And you'd best believe that if He can save Jeffrey Dahmer, He can save you too. God delights in saving sinners more than sinners delight in being saved.
Wow! What a incredible interview Jon! You did a great job in asking very pertinent questions and allowing us to hear a side of Jeff that is not seen in most media conversations. I can certainly understand how difficult it is for us as humans to comprehend grace and forgiveness of a serial killer when we try to compare ourselves to him. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I am so happy for Mr Dahmer for his repentance! (If it was really genuine i must say, but who are we to judge that) No matter he died in a horrible painful way too, i think he died peacefully ❤. God is Great!
WOW. Truly the most fascinating interview I have seen in a very long time. I grew up around Milwaukee and remember this vividly. I was not saved at the time, just looked at it from a place of "wow, that is really evil." My concept has changed as a born again Christian as I want to believe as I read the Bible that anyone can be saved by grace through faith, a gift from God. Well done!
@@lizzybeth428 I don’t know if anyone can answer that question. It is such a severe tragedy that hypotheticals fall short and when anyone is tested truth is revealed. I hope I would. Whether I would or would not, truth is still true and the truth is this: God loves and forgives if we would only repent and believe Jesus is Lord. So God absolutely wants anyone to forgive as He forgives us.
I thought I was just going to watch more about dahmer. But it ended up solidifying the fact the lord has grace and love for us. Great interview, and appreciate the honesty from the preacher
The Roman’s 13 & II Corinthians 5- bit was amazing, wow. I would’ve had those same exact thoughts. Even with the sins I’ve committed in my life that probably don’t compare, i still had condemning thoughts. God is good and His Word is true! Glory be to Jesus🙏🏾
Wow. It's an honor to see this interview. Thank you for sharing this. So many people need to see this. It's also healing to my own heart when I think of my own horrible sins.
Saul is a bad comparison because you judge the outward actions ie persecution of believers but God judges the heart. You see Yahusha said forgive them because they know NOT what they do. You think Saul knew he was persecuting his God's own children? In his HEART(mind) . When he considered he could be wrong as he saw his hands work and being exposed to messiahs teachings in part he turned to the Lord and desired him. Who are you Lord? This is humility required to hear from God. He did all of this willingly and sincerely a sign of true faith so when you look at it just a little deeper than surface level many things appear differently. After that a contrite heart and much fruit of the spirit and a willing forfeit of life. This was what God accepted with Saul evidently.
@@morbidmanmusic if there is no God, why do you get the idea that those people dying is wrong? In a godless world, there is no standard of morality because there is no ultimate authority to dictate it. So are you saying that you , me, or other humans have randomly decided the rules of life ? What if you and I have things we don’t agree with? Do we both just live life to our own standards (since you say God doesn’t have anything to do with it), and hope our individual versions of right and wrong don’t cause conflict? Not trying to “trick” you into giving a certain answer , or attack you either. Genuinely want to hear your perspective, as I am a former atheist of 30 years
@@craig5222 We don't need some fairy tale to tell us causing people pain is bad.... we are taught those morals from a young age due to the society we live in. I would also argue you get indoctrinated into religion at a young age or during difficult times in your life when the church can lure you in for donations
Jeff heard about Jesus but people in his life didn’t care to hear Jeff, his family was broken, he needed people in his life. Sometimes we know how to point people to Jesus, but don’t know how to allow Jesus to flow through us.
@@ThreePinkBananas It's interesting to think that there are many out there that don't lead particularly noteworthy lives but spend their entire lives simply holding back the evil within them. This is a mountain of a task for many people. It may be the most underrated accomplishments in many, many, many lives.
Thank you so much for this interview! I've been following this case for years (before the Netflix series) and when I read about his conversion I was so eager to know the whole story. This is very much appreciated! God is mighty to save even the worst of sinners.
I have always loved this story. My high school bible teacher told me about this (thx mr Aardsma). And this makes people angry. That our God could possibly accept someone as evil as Jeff. But we all, who really know our sin, are the worst of sinners. None of us deserves the love of God. Not one of us.
There's no salvation for unnatural sinners. When a person commits Biblically unnatural sins, it is a consequence of rejecting God for eternity. Then "believing" later is nothing but a facade. Dahmer is in 7th hell
@@zfg07 what you're saying is biblically unnatural, the irony of your comment and your name being kjv is beyond irony. All sin is unnatural? What is a biblical unnatural sin? Homosexuality? Murder?
@Keshav KiV, with all due respect, I don’t think you understand God’s grace & the sufficiency of belief in who Jesus is, His death for our sins & His resurrection for our salvation.
@@zfg07 We all fall short in our sins. But God extends His love, mercy and grace upon those who ask. When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we become God's child. We then receive salvation by repentance. The only time salvation is revoked or not possible is with the unforgivable sin. Jesus tells us in Mark 3:28-29- "Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:" "But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation." If Jeff accepted Jesus and repented then he was saved.
@@reoij Who knows? God isn’t merciful or friendly towards his creation. Life is rough, so you shouldn’t be surprised about it’s bizarreness. Although I don’t really think that he made it to heaven tbf
Thank you so much for this. It truly shows the greatness of His grace and makes you really understand forgiveness on another level. And, to get the whadda you meme part at the very end - perfect! ❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for this interview like many other born-again Christians here I believe that there is no sin that is too massive or too horrible for Jesus to forgive because he died on the cross for them and to pay the price for their sins
That was a phenomenal interview Jon. You asked all the right questions and didn't shy away from the difficult ones. Man, just when I was thought I had an understanding of God's grace. The Lord, through this interview showed me how ignorant I truly am. Thank you Lord Jesus for humbling me and enlightening me. Thank you Jon and Pastor Roy for blessing so many with this conversation. May the Lord continue to use you both and bless your ministry.

Wow what an awesome interview!!! I’m so glad you interviewed this guy. When I watched one of Jeff’s last interviews where he talked about his new beliefs and conversion, God really used it to show me the power of the cross. I like many others know that anyone can be saved but when you look at someone who has done the crimes that Jeff has done, it’s hard to grasp that he could possibly be forgiven and spend eternity in Heaven but it’s such a beautiful story that people need to hear. Thank you for this! 🙏🏼
The reason there is lack of connection in this world is because people want to be entertained rather than listen and form connection with people, many want to be vulnerable with others but their vulnerability is seen as weakness or foolish, therefore they close themselves off and distrust forms in their life.
Thank you so , so much for doing this interview. I’ve always known about Jeff’s story and had heard about his conversion thru the years but it wasn’t until I watched the series that I understood it & appreciated it completely. It led me to researching everything I could about Jeff & Roy’s relationship and the depth of his testimony. I was very pleased to see a clip of your interview on a Christian page so I had to come here to watch in full. Your questions were bold and unbiased and I am very grateful to learn everything I did while watching. I believe that millions of people were evangelized to thru the series. I can’t say that about any other Ryan Murphy show. Therefore I believe God spoke thru this one and I’m glad this story of grace is reaching countless souls. Your video will undoubtedly have the same effect. The Lord will often use people and situations you’d least expect in order to help prodigals find their way home. That was the case for me; I was really struggling in my life during the time I decided to watch the show and I can honestly say that I am walking much closer with Jesus now because of what I’ve learned about His work in Jeff’s life. God bless you & Roy. I’ll share this video far and wide.
He might not be being possesed all the time, but temporarily when he killed those victims. Like his mind at that time had been enough of an vessel for the devil to takeover. The devil is actually way more complex and intelligent than we think or try to understand about
He was definitely demonized. Many are and don’t believe in demons, the person does not have to believe in the devil or in demons to have them. The pastor is a man of God but he probably is a cessationist.
Dahmer did horrific things no doubt but I’ve always observed him to be a defeated man, a very sad man. I believe there is more to his upbringing than we know about. I believe there was childhood trauma in his family. I believe his parents didn’t tell the whole truth about JD’s childhood. Just my take being a childhood trauma survivor.
We're all childhood trauma survivors. Lmao I don't get it why do women always feel the need to say that. I'm sexually abused by males throughout my teenage years. I never died. So I'm not a survivor. It's kind of stupid. Sorry it bothers me because you're not a survivor. It's silly. You were abused. But there was no threat in your life.
WHAT A BROTHER. This has caused so much controversy lately and I'm so glad he is speaking out about it. I'm thankful for the conversation. This story reeally touched me.
Amen! I've come across many people who said "I'm not going to worship a God who lets in murderous and rapists into heaven, just because they convert- while sending decent people to hell just because they didn't believe." When I was younger, I wrestled with that and didn't really know how to respond. As I got older and started looking into apologetics and of course the word itself, I became better at answering these questions. It's so important to be able to, in order to better evangelize to others! Some of my favs are Frank Turek, Dr. Hugh Ross, William Lane Craig, J Warner Wallace, Lee Strobel :) are you familiar with them?
A lot of people are upset the Parkland shooter isn't getting the death penalty, even the governor of his state. A couple years ago I would've agreed. But I do believe the healing power of Jesus Christ is capable of redeeming someone like that, and I'm glad that he gets a chance to reflect and hopefully one day accept Jesus. We often forget that sin is sin and no man is less guilty in Gods eyes. Earthly consequences are one thing, but no sin is too bad for Jesus to wash you white as snow. We need to pray for ALL people who haven't accepted Jesus.
Fantastic interview! Great questions and this pastor seems very sincere in his responses and appears to understand grace and mercy on a level many fail to see. We’re all a bit skeptical about Dahmers conversion but this interview really helps with putting the decision on Gods goodness and not our presumption on how a good God should judge. Appreciate it, brother!
What makes this interview so beautiful is that Dahmers pastor didn't look at Jeffrey as a monster like the world did, he looked at Him as a fallen man who desperately needed Jesus's love and forgiveness. At the end of the day people can scoff and get angry and call Dahmers repentance and faith in Jesus as unjust and a disenguine but people that say this miss the the heart of the Gospel. Christianity has never been about what we can do to get to God its what God did to get to us by sending His son to die in our place. Yes Dahmers crimes were absolutely horrific and he rightly deserved his sentance but I have to remember that even in my best behavior, at the end of the day I am really just like Dahmer was before a holy and righteous God and without Jesus I am just as deserving of wrath and hell but God who is rich in mercy has offered us and all that in our eyes the worst of the worst a way out if we would repent and believe in His son for salvation.
Forget the Camera Angles! This was an Incredible Interview! Just Magnificent! It's core message that Jesus Christ paid for All Sins...even Jeffery Dhamer's. God Bless you all as well.
I cannot believe this minister didn’t believe that a demonic spirit was tormented Jeffrey. Jesus spoke about people being demonically possessed, and it was super obvious that Jeffrey had demonic spirits tormenting him. I wish he enlightened Jeffrey about this, I hope he did. Because that would have given Jeffrey a better understanding of what he had done. Aside that, this minister seems genuine in his service to God and I am glad he helped Jeffrey get baptized and gave him Christian counseling. On judgement day we will all be surprised who makes it into heaven.
Don’t know how this doesn’t have more views. Honestly, it’s fascinating you even got to speak with someone who had direct contact with him. It’s controversial I guess because what Jeffrey did was so, so evil and dark and wrong.
This is a really powerful interview that reveals the radical grace of God in Jesus Christ. I hope given the popularity of the Netflix programme that many unbelievers will discover this video and come to saving faith in Jesus. For what it's worth I actually really enjoyed the more 'raw footage' style which gave the film a more authentic feeling.

Hey brother I was wondering your thoughts on how to reconcile the salvation of dahmer and the damnation of his victims because of homosexuality. That's if dahmer was saved.
I love this pastor. He seems to know his Bible well and shows some great wisdom in how he applies the scripture. like how he doesn't treat dahmer as a notch on his evangelistic belt but as a work of God above all.
I get the video but why focus so much on a serial killer?
Great video. I wish the gospel was explained better. But this is one of Meme Team’s best works

Praise the LORD
About a week ago my wife asked, how could Dahmer be saved? It just seems not possible for someone like him. I said, if Jesus can't save Dahmer there's no hope for any of us.
Exactly.
Perfectly put Chambers!!
That shows the true power of God, that he can save anyone.
Well said.
Saving repentance is realizing that you are a sinner deserving of God's just punishment in Hell and turn (repent) from whatever you trusted in before, if indeed you trusted in anything; to trusting in the person and finished work of Christ alone for salvation.
“We like to play god so much that we want to judge on God’s behalf.”
That’s a wonderful quote.
amen! 🥳🙌
Fire statement.🙏
We are supposed to only if you do it without God its not really on his behalf and we have a tendency to judge unrighteously being unrighteous. This is why Christ taught us how to judge. Matthew 7.5, Leviticus 19.16 John 7.24, 1 corinthians 6.3. We shouldn't "play" when it comes to God
preach!!
“Gods thoughts are higher than our thoughts” and “Lean not on your own understanding.” This means being open to the fact, our opinions of another could be wrong. Have you ever had your trust betrayed? We can believe a person, wholeheartedly, only to find out later they were lying to us. They betrayed our trust. We got it wrong. Never think highly of our opinions, or the opinions of others. “Lean not on your own understanding.” Meaning- Remain skeptical of your own opinions.
When I first heard Jeffrey Dahmer had accepted Christ and been baptized, I cried and praised God that he is so full of grace and power to redeem even the most wicked of men. I look forward to meeting my brother in eternity.
Did you listen to this interview or think critically about any of the details surrounding this? To cry…then look forward to meeting him? Just from hearing this “news” about a person with severe mental illness?
You don't have even the faintest idea of the meaning of any of the words you just said in that comment and that is why you are content to trivialise and desecrate scripture like that.

I will defend the flag of truth till my dead hands no longer posses the strength needed to fight this battle against the wiles of the devil. If just one person is kept from ensnaring themselves in the thicket of evil and unrighteousness, than this life will not have been sacrificed for nought.

I first read about dahmer when I was in 7th grade (I’m 28 now) and it of course disturbed me very very deeply and I remember tuning the whole school computer off because I was so scared of the Wikipedia page I had just read. Ever since then I have avoided reading or watching anything to do with dahmer but I decided to listen to this and I’m so glad I did. This pastor has great biblical knowledge and hearing him speak God’s Word into this situation has given my mind finally peace on this. Im so thankful I feel a weight lifted off of me I can’t explain it. This interview was not clickbait or sensationalized at all - it is just honest questions honest answers and seeing God’s amazing grace in the darkest of places and hearing inspiring testimony of men who do His work.
Yup. I was never disturbed by Dahmer. I only learned of him recently. By random people's mentioning serial killers. Ted Bundy I learned his name as child. But not Jeffery Dahmer. Either way I'm glad he's in heaven..amen I'm a horrible sinner too. I just want the same genuine repentance Jeffrey has.
I remember the day they caught him. I was working in Columbus Ohio and my gf’s father asked me, “did you hear what they found in Jeffery’s freezer?” No. “A Dahmernose pizza.”😝
He never scared me cuz we were gankstas in them days. We hung deep with some rough dudes and we all had each others backs.
THAT ENDING WAS SO CUTE??? 😭😭😭 man, this interview really blessed me. he is so right about all of us having done things out of our mind. I immediately thought back to when I was a teen/young adult and did things impulsively because I wanted the rush and the validation and such. now that I'm more adult I am sickened by my foolishness and sin. I definitely cried while watching the videos about Jeffery. God's power to make us new is astounding and humbling. conversion truly is a miracle and I thank Jesus for giving us this amazing covenant in His blood.
For real 😭😭😭🙏
So well said, I don't even need to make a separate post trying to do so myself.
I share your sentiment
Amen.🙏
That’s what I’m talking about good to see people forgive and also forgive their own self too truly a blessing to see people forgive Jeff and people like him there is always hope and a way to change for the better very well said
I was patiently waiting for this interview. It really hit home for me. My brother was murdered a little over 25 years ago. It never ripped my family apart but I thank God for Jesus because when this happen I was saved and disciple of Jesus. God helped me walk through and gave to grace to forgive. This Pastor did a great job explaining his interaction with Jeffrey Dahmer. I am so thankful Jeffrey was introduced to Jesus and received forgives from the father!!! Powerful testimony.

He is not a Pastor. He is a preacher in The Churches Of Christ. The Churches Of Christ do not have Pastors.
@@skwills1629 Whats the difference?
@@TimothyC.84 - For One Thing, in The Churches Of Christ the Preacher can be Any Baptised Man. They are also not ordained in Any Way. For another, He does not lead the Congregation. A pastor is Generally understood as a Central Spiritual Authority. The Man Who Acts as Lord of The Manner or Governor or Mayor. He is in Charge in Some way. That simply does not Exist in The Churches Of Christ. The Elders generally Govern, and an Elder is All of The Baptised Men. The preacher doesn't even Always Administrate the meetings. I have Attended Churches where The preacher has less Influence than some other members.
This "Pastor" would not Actually Govern The Church. He'd simply Work for the Church by Fulfilling a Specific Role and Carrying Out the Needed Functions.
@@skwills1629 It’s not that deep.
I'm no theologist or psychiatrist by any means but,I've always felt that serial killers and what society deems the worst of the worst were,if not possessed definitely driven by demonic forces and therefore in desperate need of deliverance. Just my opinion
The guy who escaped from Jeff makes it sound like he really was.
Agreed. I’ve had deliverance from many demons. I’ve also witnessed many demons manifest in people. Tracy Edward’s testimony totally solidifies demon possession. In fact, Jeffrey’s 😢story is textbook demon possession. Including his inability to even find the why behind the tragedies he committed. Thank God we serve a God full of mercy and forgiveness. 🙌🏾💚
@@sunshineandsoul whoa?! You’ve had deliverance from multiple demons!!! What happened?
Or they were the template for the definition of a demon.
You are absolutely right. He needed a strong prayer to have that demon cast out... Just the way Jesus cast out demons in the past... I can't believe this pastor does not have spiritual discernment enough to see it... His heinous acts alone will tell you that he had legions of demons living in him.
Wow!! So incredible you were able to interview him. I cancelled Netflix a few years ago but got it again only to watch Dahmer. Some believers might find it strange...but I'm a huge true crime fanatic. I also have a psychology degree, so my interest in these things also tie into my faith when it comes to the Lord being fully just. I got assigned Jeffery Dahmer's case in one of my psychology classes years ago. It was all about the "why". My essay ended up being nearly 30 pages (from what I remember.) Although the show was disturbing & in so many scenes..I had to fast forward through them. The last episode hadn't left my mind. I was talking to everyone I knew about if his conversion was true. The fact is...we will not know until we make it to heaven. But the thought baffled me. It caused me to truly humble myself. "If you hate your brother, you've committed murder in your heart"...kept coming to mind. I battled all these questions since I watched that episode. There was something different about knowing what happened so well & seeing it play out on the screen that really slapped me in the face & made it more real for me. His crimes almost seem unbelievable. Thank you so much for this interview. I came out of it with a stronger sense of how God is in control & how I'm so unbelievably undeserving of His grace. It made me even more grateful for it. God bless yall!
that's a beautiful testimony
@@4knewt505 thank you!!! It still rattles my mind. But that's when I lean on the fact that I must lean on His understanding & not my own.
I too am interested in true crime, from a psychological point of view, not just from the perpetrator/s of the crime, but the emotional and psychological and spiritual side from the victims ( if they have lived through whatever the crime maybe ) and their families and friends and also the perpetrators family and friends. It has fascinated me since I was a young child. however I don't watch crime programs with lots of gratuitous and gory re enactments. I follow cases, and when the story of Jeffry's case broke years ago, I was sickened by it. Soon after it was released I discovered the book, called "A Fathers Story" written by Jeffery's father. That book kept me following his story. How many parents of perpetrators take such a deep look inside themselves, to see where they have let their children down, to try face all the factors that may have, and that they personally, may have contributed to the outcome. I won't watch the Netflix account, I read a few peoples reviews and they found too much that was far too graphic, because of that, I believe Netflix is irresponsible and and is gratuitously sensationalising acts that don't need to be sensationalised in such a way. We can know about something that happened without having to be taken into the re-enacted moments in graphic detail of that kind of depravity. Not to be holier than thou, I just don't think it is really helpful in any circumstance and for any reason, other than to get viewers.
God has His people in all professions of life. Although a small percentage compared to that of the secular world, He has His people there despite that fact. Even in psychology 😊 praise the Lord 🙏🏾
A Christian obsessed with the worst kinda crimes. Apocalypse can't come soon enough.
Love the Pastor’s honesty. You can tell he is very down to earth and wasn’t exaggerating things. Just laying down facts. Great interview.
He is not a Pastor. He is a Church Of Christ Preacher. They are not the same Thing. The Churches of Christ do not have ordained Clergy and The preacher is not the leader of a Congregation. And the Down To Earth Nature of His Manner is Characteristic of The Churches Of Christ in General. The Church tends to be Very Fact Focused and Intellectual. Namely owing to its Theology.

I read his book about Jeff and felt deep regret that he only had the strength to follow Jesus after such a dark journey. I reflected on the beauty of God's mercy, even though it doesn't free us from the consequences of our mistakes.✝️
Dhahmer didn't make a mistake, he was a murderer.
@@sigururolafsson2257 and that was a mistake. the same way you sin against God. we all deserve the same. Hell. also if you have hated someone you are also a murderer. Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.1 JOHN 3:15 so are you a murderer or did you make a mistake?
@@TheHolsomback Are you saying that when Adam and Eve disobeyed God that they made á mistake?
@@sigururolafsson2257 yes. what did Jesus say when THEY WERE KILLING HIM. forgive them father they not know what they do. are you saying what adam and eve did wasnt a mistake? like they didnt get tricked into it? Ephesians 6:12
New King James Version
12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of [a]the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places
@@TheHolsomback I'm not saying that when Adam and Eve disobeyed god that that was a mistake. I agree with you. Comparing a mistake to willfully sin I'm not so sure is right. It belittles the word "sin" that's all I'm saying.
I cried.
I didn't realise that he actually felt remorse about what he did. Thank God. No one is ever truly far away for Him.
Jeffrey said that he hated the killing part of what he did. He said he never enjoyed that part.
Well maybe he did its hard to tell because psychopaths can actually understand what remorse is and even empathy problem is they just don't care about it. Else they would be poor at manipulating others.
take it with a grain of salt.
@@Herr.P Dahmer wasnt a psychopath though. He had many mental illnesses, but psychopathy wasnt one of them. Unlike someone like Gacy or Bundy, he didnt take pleasure in the killing part. He even drugged his victims so they wouldnt feel pain. Thats a major difference from sadistic psychopaths. As twisted and horrible the things he did were, his motives and "morals" (if we can call em that) were very different from most serial killers.
@@edwardm9975 he recognized that he was dangerous. He knew and said he shouldnt be free. He had mental illnesses, it doesnt go away simply by praying to God.
"In my line of work I have to believe people can change."
Amen to that.
Amen!!!!! Thats what i belive also people can changed once they are showed a loving and guiding hand
People like dahmer are the people that need more love , and more God. Only God can judge. If he truly repented then I’m happy to welcome him as a brother in Christ.
Sure you do.
Comma I bet you wouldn't be so welcomeung if he was sitting on the church pugh next to you
It's people like you that gave him the confidence to just get on with doing séances to summon devil when he was fifteen, then later he probably thought, well, if so called Christians weigh evil that lightly I might as well get on with this now....Just because you name a feeling or an experience "love" that doesn't mean that's what it is....And just because you name something Jesus that doesn't make it Him.
Do you have a relationship with God? @@rlawrence9838
But feeling sorry is not how we earn forgiveness, we cannot earn it. Psychopaths cannot even feel remorse. Jesus saves us, we can't do penance by feeling sorry.
This could very well end up being your highest viewed video. Good stuff! (I know that's not the point, I'm just saying. I hope this trends to get the good news out!)
I guess the lesson is do much evil shit as you can but as long you accept god you will end up in heaven
God is the last thing on the minds of people who are doing evil, but when they actually do repent of their sins and have actual remorse that leads to repentance, Jesus IS there to receive them. That’s the good news: He’s there to recieve all of us. But we don’t go to Christ to continue sinning but to leave the life of sin behind us and learning and growing in JESUS.
@@run2cat4run Not at all.
@@run2cat4run I guess you missed the entire point
@@run2cat4run that's absolutely evil and disgusting! Why would you even think like that, let alone say it?
Seriously, what in hell are you thinking saying evil garbage like that.
May the Lord rebuke you and bless you with discernment to see the error in your "thinking".
Now go in peace and sin no more.
Cinematography is no where near as important as the content itself. This is A+++ material!!!
I am a Christian and before i was born again , I harshly judged Jeffery Dahmer. I was obsessed with telling everyone how messed up I thought he was and how it couldn't be possible that he could change. But being born again I have different eyes now. If he changed and came to christ he absolutely is in heaven. And I have no problem with that. Grace IS enough even for someone like him.
This was extremely powerful. A short time ago I did a video called "Did Jeffrey Dahmer Go to Heaven" which was in response to some critical comments I had received recently because of ex felons I feature on my podcast. Some people were admonishing "Jail house conversions" and I did the video to show that no one is irredeemable, no one is worthy - no not one... and YES if Jeffrey sincerely repented and accepted Jesus, he would go to heaven. The media and culture wants to focus on his crimes and the shocking nature of everything and sensationalize everything instead of the comparatively "boring" story of him being SAVED! The greatest story of all. Thank you for this interview, it was VERY well done!!!
how about the victims?
@@petitluna2571 The line between heaven and hell is simply believing in Jesus Christ. If his victims did not believe that Jesus grants eternal life to those who believe in him, then they are in hell. Like Roy said, its uncomfortable to think about, but if Jesus cannot save Dahmer, then we are all doomed.
@@777wrath even if you youtself put your religious belief in these terms and cannot see what is wrong with it.. who could possibly help you? I'm glad this is all fantasy. If sth like that were the truth of life, imagine how monstruous, cruel, egocentric and sadistic a god we would have
It is the most imaginary, fictitious and full of wishful thinking story. It is a fairytale. And one of bad taste at that. Regarding dahmer's forgiveness, this can only be given by his victims. As for how much he was trying to be normal and to do the best he could to fix things, i have no doubt and religion served as a gesture for his psychological needs and as a symbol to the outside world of gis internal struggle and sincere quest. But, ultimately, he was incapable of true change as if he were released or never caught, he would not have stopped and he did noy go to heaven cause there is no heaven. But you kids seem to need these fairytales badly yo be able to face the desert of the realitiee of life and death
@@DeniseCoelhoEnglishForLife 👉God is the author of peace, charity, and all that is good. You irreligious, just like all the religious elite seek to establish your own righteousness by yourself; you would rather worship the creature more than the creator. The Apostles were boiled alive, nailed onto crosses, skinned alive, professing Christ until their last breaths. Now suddenly history becomes a fantasy? Get a grip.
"Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen." - Romans 1:25
“For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.” - 2 Peter 1:16
👉 Jesus Christ offers his own righteousness, that is given to those who believe on him. The only begotten Son of God promises eternal life for whoever believes on him. Once you believe, you are saved forever by God's mercy:
"Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification." - Romans 4:23-25
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” - John 5:24
My oldest son talked about your channel this week so thank you for leading with intention. Thank you for your obedience and testimony.
Thank you for this interview. Reminded me of Jonah and the Ninevites. Jonah didn't want to preach to the Ninevites because he knew that God's forgiveness is so great.. and he didn't want the Ninevites to be forgiven. All of us need forgiveness and I'm glad that Jeffrey's conversion seems genuine!
I said the same thing! Lol
I cried watching this. This is one of the most important interviews I have seen and I wish everyone would see it and understand how valuable they are and that there’s a hope in this world we don’t have in anything else but God.
Amen!! Completely agree!
Jeffs victims cried even more when he was chewing on their penis.
But what God, that's the problem, you probably think your God is greater than my god or a god from a different religion, to be honest God has caused the extinction of ancient races because people would fight over religion, so I don't think god as real thing will save people, maybe the concept of god , could help people
Amen ❤ 🙏
I cried when I saw the crime scene photos of him murdering, Raping , dismembering and eating all his victims.
I cried when he drilled a hole in 14 year old boys head while he was alive and raped him repeatedly before eating him.
I cried when god was nowhere to be found while this was happening.
I cried when I read god doesn’t make mistakes and created him
I cried when I read your stupid nieve message
It is nice that the minister cared enough for Jeff that he grieved his loss.
True This.
As a Christian myself who knows we are saved by grace through faith and not by works, I was pondering that exact question John brought up about Jeffrey Dahmer being in heaven while some of his victims could possibly be in hell. The pastor’s answer was perfect, and made me wonder why I didn’t even see it that way to begin with. Belief on our Savior is the requirement, and it’s all a work of God, not our own. We should be praising God even more to know how much grace He gives us when we don’t deserve it, and He longs for a relationship with us. Hallelujah! ✝️💕🙌🏻
Amen
And yet, u seem unable to see the ugliness of that belief. How sadistic, cruel, unfair and egocentric a god would have to be. How it is even worse if that were the truth of life than if there were no Godm I am glad i dont share these crazy and immoral beliefs
@@DeniseCoelhoEnglishForLife We can rely on the Savior that has paid our sin debt in full or you can pay for your own sins for an eternity in torment. The choice is yours.
Fantastic work brother! I instantly saved this to favorites to share with others. I just so happened to watch My Friend Dahmer and the Tubi Original documentary on Jeff last night. I am sad to report that neither gave a glimpse into a spiritual conversion at all except to say that his grandmother was involved in him going to church prior to his primary killing spree. I could tell despite the former film being mainly about his tumultuous childhood, each missed the mark in many respects. Glad to see this add a much needed layer of depth to the man's life. This whole story was formative for me living as a legalistic young convert to the faith, that God could save such a one like this was a radical concept. We all make the mistake of comparing ourselves to others to feel good about our mess. The truth is, without God's grace to the believer and even the unbeliever we would all be infinitely more fallen than even Jeff. We all stand condemned before a Holy God who for whatever reason has saved us.
God's reason for saving us is His immeasurable love.
You are a skilled interviewer and good listener. Bless you for using your gifts for Jesus.
This was so interesting and deep.
I once heard someone say-When you get to heaven, you’ll be surprised by who’s there and surprised by who’s not there.
I'm NOT a religious person. But I feel extremely sorry for Jeffrey Dhamer. He was so lonely and his childhood was so sad. He must have felt so alone as a child and been so different, couldn't have been easy. 1what1 happened to his victims was terrible, but my heart goes out to Jeffrey. Watching g him on videos, you can feel the loneliness and emptiness.
I wonder if you’d felt so sorry for Jeffrey if one of the young men was your child. There’s plenty of lonely people out there that wouldn’t think it was a good idea to dismember someone’s body. He was mental. Don’t make excuses.
Jeffrey Dhamer had some very serious Demons attached to him' most likely a curse passed down from bloodline.
@@heavenreignsupreme How crazy is religion when he thinks he’s being forgiven and go the the magical place so he can be with the young men he dismembered.

This is incredible material. Do not worry about the issues with the footage, this was really a blessing and helped me further my understanding of God’s unlimited grace, just after finishing the series. Thank you very much!
Where sin abounds, grace is increased all the more
This interview challenged my own idea of grace and how much I truly understand how deep the gospel goes ... It's convicting and so amazing.
TH-cam Fulton Sheen Life is worth living
Amazing interview. I actually liked the raw element to it rather than it being fancier. Refreshing tbh. Thanks so much for this- I feel like my understanding of grace is on such a deeper level now. I think this is so important to see.
What a humbling video. Thank you for all your time in putting this video together and sharing it, my brother in Christ!
Just because Jeffrey didn’t believe in demons doesn’t mean that he wasn’t possessed. He was extremely evil L. Hope he was sincere in his repentance. Only God can judge him
I remember Jeffrey saying at his trial that he hoped God would forgive him because he thought people never would.
Yeah I wonder why people wouldn't forgive a serial killer that took many lives away from their loved ones...
@@heavenlypath1065 💀
This, hands down, provides absolute hope to those suffering from the guilt of their sins from the past and for those who are diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (one of the same disorders that Jeffrey was diagnosed with). Jesus loves the serial killer and the one with mental illness. No soul, no matter how depraved, is beyond God's reach. Praise God.
Wow, I wasn't sure what I was going to think about this interview, but I absolutely loved it. This made my day so much better. ❤️
This was super powerful. Thanks for doing this as part of your ministry.
The line between good and evil runs down the heart of every man.
Yes we all have that for sure. That us our battle but some are so weak
Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote that in The Gulag Archipelago.
Yeah and some of us choose to not act on that Bull!! It’s not that hard!! He’s definitely 🔥 bound!
Not every man has a heart of a serial killer though
It amazes me to imagine when Jeff passed, Jesus may have said to him “welcome to paradise” what an amazing feeling Jeff may have had at that moment forever with his savior. I sincerely hope Jeff was saved. Thank you for this interview. It makes me believe more so that he lives today with God.
Great job Meme Team! I admire the peaceful and thorough Q&A and I liked the raw authentic feel of the video 🙌

I know you were unhappy about the footage and camera angles Jon but the important part is that you got the audio intact from this interview. This could have been a podcast recording and I still would have listen to it. Thank you for interviewing Pastor Roy, the lesson that we are never too far to receive God’s grace is definitely one we need to hear over and over again.
he is not "Pastor Roy". I Know Evangelicals have a Tendency to refer to their Pastors by their First name, but its Jarring. Especially since he is not even a Pastor. The Churches of Christ do not have Pastors.
The MAIN question I had was the one you asked, the spiritual state of his victims when they died, as opposed to his own.👍👍👍Great interview!
Amen, that's a loaded question there. Praise God for this interview and the grace of God.
So excited to see this. This interview will be remembered forever in history.

Not even hardly! Read a history book! Much worse people in history than him!
Honestly, I think the camera shots work well yanno, like they go with the mood and show that it's not staged or hyped..😌👌🏽🤓 good job on this!🔥😎
This is one of the best interviews about God's Grace and salvation that I have had the privilege to watch. It raises issues that we would like left unsaid and to some degree reveals how we view sin. We Christians , myself included, fail to understand how far from God we really were before we gained salvation.
For me it also highlights how much God has forgiven me and yet how unwilling I can be to forgive others.
Truly an amazing video. Truly an amazing interview. This pastor is definitely one of the greats. I think when it comes to Christianity when most people realize that Dahmer believed and was saved I think it will either shatter your morality about Christianity or it will just make you believe in Christianity that much more. Because believing in somebody like Jeffrey Dahmer. Being saved. And him being in heaven it really puts into perspective that God truly cares about everyone no matter how much they have sin
So believe in a lord who save bad people as long they accept him.
@@run2cat4run all people are bad. God doesn't save good people, because there aren't any. That's why we need to be saved.
Romans 3:21-27
21
But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.
22
This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference,
23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
24
and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
25
God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, [9] through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished--
26
he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
27
Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On that of observing the law? No, but on that of faith.

Wow! What a incredible interview Jon! You did a great job in asking very pertinent questions and allowing us to hear a side of Jeff that is not seen in most media conversations. I can certainly understand how difficult it is for us as humans to comprehend grace and forgiveness of a serial killer when we try to compare ourselves to him. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I am so happy for Mr Dahmer for his repentance! (If it was really genuine i must say, but who are we to judge that) No matter he died in a horrible painful way too, i think he died peacefully ❤. God is Great!
Bro God is so gracious. Jesus is amazing! This is very touching.
WOW. Truly the most fascinating interview I have seen in a very long time. I grew up around Milwaukee and remember this vividly. I was not saved at the time, just looked at it from a place of "wow, that is really evil." My concept has changed as a born again Christian as I want to believe as I read the Bible that anyone can be saved by grace through faith, a gift from God. Well done!
Just asking... Would you feel the same if one of your close family members was a victim of Jeff Dahmer?
@@lizzybeth428 I don’t know if anyone can answer that question. It is such a severe tragedy that hypotheticals fall short and when anyone is tested truth is revealed. I hope I would. Whether I would or would not, truth is still true and the truth is this: God loves and forgives if we would only repent and believe Jesus is Lord. So God absolutely wants anyone to forgive as He forgives us.
@@lizzybeth428 would you?
I thought I was just going to watch more about dahmer. But it ended up solidifying the fact the lord has grace and love for us. Great interview, and appreciate the honesty from the preacher
Wow, thank you so much for this interview, it clears a lot of things!
The Roman’s 13 & II Corinthians 5- bit was amazing, wow. I would’ve had those same exact thoughts. Even with the sins I’ve committed in my life that probably don’t compare, i still had condemning thoughts. God is good and His Word is true! Glory be to Jesus🙏🏾
Wow. It's an honor to see this interview. Thank you for sharing this. So many people need to see this. It's also healing to my own heart when I think of my own horrible sins.
I honestly felt the heart of God watching this .. if God could change Saul who are we to choose who gets saved or not?
Saul is a bad comparison because you judge the outward actions ie persecution of believers but God judges the heart. You see Yahusha said forgive them because they know NOT what they do. You think Saul knew he was persecuting his God's own children? In his HEART(mind) . When he considered he could be wrong as he saw his hands work and being exposed to messiahs teachings in part he turned to the Lord and desired him. Who are you Lord? This is humility required to hear from God. He did all of this willingly and sincerely a sign of true faith so when you look at it just a little deeper than surface level many things appear differently. After that a contrite heart and much fruit of the spirit and a willing forfeit of life. This was what God accepted with Saul evidently.
There sre no gods, or the victims would be alive.

His grandmother was a Christian so he definitely heard about Jesus at some point in his life.

Bro... this interview gave me so much hope, I'm holding back tears.
Thank you so much for this interview! I've been following this case for years (before the Netflix series) and when I read about his conversion I was so eager to know the whole story. This is very much appreciated! God is mighty to save even the worst of sinners.
I have always loved this story. My high school bible teacher told me about this (thx mr Aardsma). And this makes people angry. That our God could possibly accept someone as evil as Jeff. But we all, who really know our sin, are the worst of sinners. None of us deserves the love of God. Not one of us.
There's no salvation for unnatural sinners. When a person commits Biblically unnatural sins, it is a consequence of rejecting God for eternity. Then "believing" later is nothing but a facade.

@@zfg07 We all fall short in our sins. But God extends His love, mercy and grace upon those who ask. When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we become God's child. We then receive salvation by repentance. The only time salvation is revoked or not possible is with the unforgivable sin.
Jesus tells us in Mark 3:28-29-
"Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:"

Wow what an awesome interview!!! I’m so glad you interviewed this guy. When I watched one of Jeff’s last interviews where he talked about his new beliefs and conversion, God really used it to show me the power of the cross. I like many others know that anyone can be saved but when you look at someone who has done the crimes that Jeff has done, it’s hard to grasp that he could possibly be forgiven and spend eternity in Heaven but it’s such a beautiful story that people need to hear. Thank you for this! 🙏🏼
The reason there is lack of connection in this world is because people want to be entertained rather than listen and form connection with people, many want to be vulnerable with others but their vulnerability is seen as weakness or foolish, therefore they close themselves off and distrust forms in their life.
Thank you so , so much for doing this interview. I’ve always known about Jeff’s story and had heard about his conversion thru the years but it wasn’t until I watched the series that I understood it & appreciated it completely. It led me to researching everything I could about Jeff & Roy’s relationship and the depth of his testimony. I was very pleased to see a clip of your interview on a Christian page so I had to come here to watch in full. Your questions were bold and unbiased and I am very grateful to learn everything I did while watching. I believe that millions of people were evangelized to thru the series. I can’t say that about any other Ryan Murphy show. Therefore I believe God spoke thru this one and I’m glad this story of grace is reaching countless souls. Your video will undoubtedly have the same effect.
The Lord will often use people and situations you’d least expect in order to help prodigals find their way home. That was the case for me; I was really struggling in my life during the time I decided to watch the show and I can honestly say that I am walking much closer with Jesus now because of what I’ve learned about His work in Jeff’s life.
God bless you & Roy. I’ll share this video far and wide.

@@srmontero13 i as well
@@srmontero13 but at the same time maybe that adds to the validity of his conversion
He might not be being possesed all the time, but temporarily when he killed those victims. Like his mind at that time had been enough of an vessel for the devil to takeover. The devil is actually way more complex and intelligent than we think or try to understand about
He was definitely demonized. Many are and don’t believe in demons, the person does not have to believe in the devil or in demons to have them. The pastor is a man of God but he probably is a cessationist.
Dahmer did horrific things no doubt but I’ve always observed him to be a defeated man, a very sad man. I believe there is more to his upbringing than we know about. I believe there was childhood trauma in his family. I believe his parents didn’t tell the whole truth about JD’s childhood. Just my take being a childhood trauma survivor.
Oh something most definitely happened that we don’t know About you best to believe it
@@youngb6137 aparently his father and uncle abused him sexually
We're all childhood trauma survivors. Lmao I don't get it why do women always feel the need to say that. I'm sexually abused by males throughout my teenage years. I never died. So I'm not a survivor. It's kind of stupid. Sorry it bothers me because you're not a survivor. It's silly. You were abused. But there was no threat in your life.
Thank god not all ,kids with a hard life grow up to do these evil things......
WHAT A BROTHER.
This has caused so much controversy lately and I'm so glad he is speaking out about it.
I'm thankful for the conversation.
This story reeally touched me.
Amen! I've come across many people who said "I'm not going to worship a God who lets in murderous and rapists into heaven, just because they convert- while sending decent people to hell just because they didn't believe." When I was younger, I wrestled with that and didn't really know how to respond. As I got older and started looking into apologetics and of course the word itself, I became better at answering these questions. It's so important to be able to, in order to better evangelize to others! Some of my favs are Frank Turek, Dr. Hugh Ross, William Lane Craig, J Warner Wallace, Lee Strobel :) are you familiar with them?
What a precious genuine man. Thank you so much for this interview, this was so great!!! ❤️
A lot of people are upset the Parkland shooter isn't getting the death penalty, even the governor of his state. A couple years ago I would've agreed. But I do believe the healing power of Jesus Christ is capable of redeeming someone like that, and I'm glad that he gets a chance to reflect and hopefully one day accept Jesus. We often forget that sin is sin and no man is less guilty in Gods eyes. Earthly consequences are one thing, but no sin is too bad for Jesus to wash you white as snow. We need to pray for ALL people who haven't accepted Jesus.
Wow... what an amazing testimony. Thank you for bringing this to us. I think the concept of grace is one we all have struggled with, even Christians.
Fantastic interview! Great questions and this pastor seems very sincere in his responses and appears to understand grace and mercy on a level many fail to see. We’re all a bit skeptical about Dahmers conversion but this interview really helps with putting the decision on Gods goodness and not our presumption on how a good God should judge. Appreciate it, brother!
He is not a Pastor. He is a Church of Christ Preacher. And there is a Difference. it is actually offensive to refer to Him as pastor.
Thank you for taking the time to speak to this pastor & doing this interview! Truly beautiful & amazing how good God is 🙏🏼❤
I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”
- Luke 5:32
“We like to accuse God of not judging as harshly as we would like. That’s how ridiculous we are.”
What makes this interview so beautiful is that Dahmers pastor didn't look at Jeffrey as a monster like the world did, he looked at Him as a fallen man who desperately needed Jesus's love and forgiveness. At the end of the day people can scoff and get angry and call Dahmers repentance and faith in Jesus as unjust and a disenguine but people that say this miss the the heart of the Gospel. Christianity has never been about what we can do to get to God its what God did to get to us by sending His son to die in our place.
Yes Dahmers crimes were absolutely horrific and he rightly deserved his sentance but I have to remember that even in my best behavior, at the end of the day I am really just like Dahmer was before a holy and righteous God and without Jesus I am just as deserving of wrath and hell but God who is rich in mercy has offered us and all that in our eyes the worst of the worst a way out if we would repent and believe in His son for salvation.
Well said and so very true!!!
Forget the Camera Angles! This was an Incredible Interview! Just Magnificent! It's core message that Jesus Christ paid for All Sins...even Jeffery Dhamer's. God Bless you all as well.
I cannot believe this minister didn’t believe that a demonic spirit was tormented Jeffrey. Jesus spoke about people being demonically possessed, and it was super obvious that Jeffrey had demonic spirits tormenting him. I wish he enlightened Jeffrey about this, I hope he did. Because that would have given Jeffrey a better understanding of what he had done. Aside that, this minister seems genuine in his service to God and I am glad he helped Jeffrey get baptized and gave him Christian counseling. On judgement day we will all be surprised who makes it into heaven.
Don’t know how this doesn’t have more views. Honestly, it’s fascinating you even got to speak with someone who had direct contact with him. It’s controversial I guess because what Jeffrey did was so, so evil and dark and wrong.
It’s also sad that Roy was pretty much the only true friend that Jeff every had
This is a really powerful interview that reveals the radical grace of God in Jesus Christ. I hope given the popularity of the Netflix programme that many unbelievers will discover this video and come to saving faith in Jesus. For what it's worth I actually really enjoyed the more 'raw footage' style which gave the film a more authentic feeling.
