Should I get rebaptized if I was out of church for over 10 years and now I am back in church and ready to give my life to god again. I was baptized when I was a kid around 10 years of age
Pastor Greg, some Christian's, even pastors, have graven images and portraits of Jesus at home. I think that is against God's will, based on the Ten Commandments and the stories and incidents in the Bible. Can you tell Christians that it's not okay to have them and that they should get rid of them if they have?
@@archersterling4645 you probably should if you feel God calling. I got rebaptized w/ my daughter's first dedication. I did everything wrong after I was 13. . And was first dedicated at 13...
This was awesome sermon! People need to understand anything could be an idol you need to get rid of it. Because there’s only one true God we need worship him in spirit and in truth!❤️🙏
Thank you Greg for your services you have guided me ever closer to GOD our Lord Jesus Christ i used to watch movies and in my head subject pretty women and it became bad thoughts but now i am healed from that i no longer subject females in movies shows anything i have been saved God Bless you and your family and yes ur son is in heaven as my wife who died Nov 11th 2018 mayu they both RIP in the hands of the Lord
It’s extremely brave, and truthful, for a Christian to identify and separate the statue of Jesus, vs the image of Jesus. Hallelujah, the way of the Lord is being made straight.
Greg I love your sermons. You advise parents never to turn away their prodigal sons. What if the prodigal child is a 35 year old drug addict who constantly steals from an elderly parent on a fixed income. Please advise your followers further because there is a mother out their listening to your sermons.
Hello Tim, thank you for watching and reaching out. I am sorry for the situation you find yourself in, please contact us at this link, either by email or telephone. harvest.org/contact-us/
Greg I fear you miss my point. I thank you for your response. I wrote to you as a believer of 40 years, and a Law Enforcement Officer of 28 years. I have seen countless offenders who have taken advantage of elderly parents. My fear is your advice to never turn away a prodigal may not always be sound. Many addicts will still from their families to further their addictions. I have one friend who’s mother became homeless due to the amount his brother stole from his mother.
Pastor Greg Laurie you should make a series about Homosexuality, showing people that it is wrong. Tell others the actual verses in the Bible that talks about it.
Revelation 1:14-16 KJV His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Any thing we trust in, our works, or our good behavior, or our keeping the law, or baptism, or our church attendance, or any thing we do is and idol. And idols can not save a sinner. Only Jesus finished work on the cross plus nothing can save us. We can only receive it as a free gift by faith alone in Christ alone plus nothing. Once we accept Jesus as the only way of salvation by grace, we are sealed by the Holy Spirit unto the day of redemption. Ephesians 1:13-14 and Ephesians 4:30. John 10:28-29 Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the GIFT of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Salvation is a free gift from God because no one can earn their way to heaven. Romans 3:26-28 You can not boast in free. Ephesians 2:8-9. Jesus plus nothing. Jesus plus anything else can not save us.
What about a prodigal family? I left home at 15 to get away from a family with bad characters and I wanted God not them. I have been persecuted by bio fam. So I am the reverse. It is the family that needs Jesus. Hm.
Hello Pastor Greg Laurie! I am a new listener and love your videos! I just have one small request - can you please raise the volume on your microphone as even when I have mine on top volume I still have trouble hearing you:( Thank you and God bless you.
I have question about dragons and why/what/who are they and how do they fit in the Bible. I ask this because satan was thrown down to earth with *a dragon* or something along those lines I asked “so were dragons in heaven? Are dragons bad? If dragons are bad why was that one in heaven? Why is this the first time we’ve heard about dragons in the Bible? Why aren’t dragons talked about more in the Bible? Has anyone seen *real dragons*?” And other such questions.
I used to watch this guy, but after hearing him make fun of the Jehovah's witnesses several times, I don't believe this guy has a TRUE good heart. We are supposed to love our neighbor, not make fun of them.
Greetings ‘public’...new and ‘improved’?..Christ here...or what’s left of him anyway...there’s a verse in the bible..Christ says to his mom...nows not my time to be ‘ministered’ to...ministry time?...a little worst for ‘wear’...parlez?....play catch up...watch my videos..touch my picture...comments ‘expected’...symbiotic time!...TMI?..hello prime directive 😉

If you look at Genesis 1:26-27...we ARE the idols. Psalm 82 says: I said you are elohiym and all of you are children of the Most High, but you shall die like men and fall like one of the princes. We sinned against God and Genesis Chapter 1 was the making of our prison. It's the punishment God allowed. The Lord God HATES idols, yet Elohiym created idols (phantoms, shadows, illusions) in Genesis Chapter 1:26-27. There is NO LIFE in these two verses. Life is before these verses, and after these verses, but not IN these verses. Dead souls were created (that would be us). But the Lord God allowed it because He already had plans to get back his children that had been led away captive by Lucifer and his minions. Enter Adam, whom God formed in his rest, and gave the breath of life, making a living soul. The Lord God put HIS spirit into the system created by Elohiym because his work of redemption was beginning. You think that God Almighty didn't know about the fall? He knew. He created the situation, specifically to save us. Adam was put to sleep so that the Lord God could create Eve, the adultress, but it never says Adam woke up. In Luke 4:18 Jesus cites Isaiah 61:1 but adds: and recovery of sight to the blind. People are leaving the churches because the churches preach in blindness, they have not recovered their sight. The Lord God calls to His Children and points them to His embodiment, Jesus, but when they show up, the church teaches blindly because they don't know the truth. Go back and restudy Genesis word for word and UNDERSTAND who you are now verses what you were before you crossed over and became alienated from the Lord God. Brothers and Sisters...time is short. Insignificant preaching and teaching are just a waste of time WAKE UP, sleepers! You are elohiym and will die like men unless you recover your sight, your knowing, your understanding. Stop acting like you KNOW and go back to being a child, reading the word with excitement and joy that EL will keep his promise to redeem his children that turn back to him, He will Lead us out of Babylon and back to heaven, we will leave these snake-husks-crusts behind as we get caught up. Jacob saw the angels ascending and descending...going to heaven and going to hell. He woke up afraid. Why? Because HE WOKE UP and saw the truth of this world. Elohiym owns THIS world, which is why the LORD GOD says come out of it. Again, reread Genesis Chapters 1-4 and UNDERSTAND! Open your eyes so that you can help others recover their sight.
The deity of Christ is a non negotiable in biblical doctrine. There’s not a reputable seminary in America that denies the deity of Christ. It’s replete through Scripture. Please learn proper exegesis and take a hermeneutics course.
Can you describe the God your talking about? There's many People preaching and talking about god but they don't know God. The Christian religion has been mentally conditioning the minds of weak minded people that except the words from a book with stolen information from another society before them and being interpreted by false preachers that dont really have an understanding of spirituality. So following these preachers maybe the reason why there's many souls being sent straight to Valhalla. You all could be praying to a demon imitating the true spiritual God.
...He says in the video that Jesus's color isn't described?.. The Bible actually says different! Describing both the color of Yahweh/God and Jesus! Directly quoting Jesus himself saying I am black but beautiful. Hes preaching the gospel but he is still leaving things out for whatever reason..
@@derekcampbell6135 In context its the woman who is saying that. (the wife or bridegroom depending on how you look at this book.) Obviously Jesus isnt/wasnt a blonde, blue eyed, white dude - he lived in the middle east.
@@rebekahcole3106 wrong...this is why we have to read the Bible and use critical thinking. White people weren't even in that area at the time...neither were Arabs
