Those places where you're frightened, threatened, intimidated, uncertain, or you feel insecure-recognize it as an opportunity where you can get to know the Lord better, and you can have more confidence. - Pastor Allen Jackson
Get the book. It's just like hearing him preach. I am so thankful for youtube because I live a long way from Tennessee but can still hear and apply the principles he teaches . Thank you Pastor.

Psalms 23:1-6(KJV) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
Sure enjoy your messages..what's up with these colleges that are springing up with messages of faith cross the country ? ... It certainly appears to be an awwakening of our younger folks that is long overdue..?
Fear begets FEAR Love begets Peace and Security When you come to know how much God really REALLY LOVES YOU (John 3:16 ) THEN and only THEN that peace that PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING will fill your heart and Life.
Hello beautiful …I’m actually new here following pastor Allen of outreach church and so far he has preached the word of God just as it is and he has strengthened my faith with his preachings…I am happy to be exposed to his messages about God and my spirit wants me to get to know you perhaps we could be sharing the words of God together.....I am catholic and I will want to worship God the rightful way…..I’m from Lima Peru and where do you come from?°^

Thank you Pastor Allen for your mind and heart for serving God in this period. First heard of you on an Eric Metaxes program we saw recently. Thank you for speaking the Truth boldly and Biblically. We are Steve and Gaitha Athans in Columbia Missouri. We understand you know of our community. 😉 We hope to visit World Outreach Center soon and meet you if possible briefly. Thank you Pastor... Blessings on your continued Encouragement for the Church to awake and speak Biblically into the culture of our Community and Nation.
Amen. Lord. Help us all. Open doors that no man can shut. ! Teach us. How. To. Give us wisdom. From. Above ! Perform. Signs wonders and. Miracles. Glorify Thy. Name.
Proverbs 9:10-12(KJV) The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased. If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
There Is A Name I Love To Hear, I Love To Speak Its Worth; It Sounds Like Music In My Ear, The Sweetest Name On Earth. O, How I Love The Saviour’s Name, O, How I Love The Saviour’s Name, O, How I Love The Saviour’s Name, The Sweetest Name On Earth. It Tells Me Of A Saviour’s Love, Who Died To Set Me Free; It Tells Me Of His Precious Blood, The Sinner’s Perfect Plea. It Tells Of One Whose Loving Heart Can Feel My Deepest Woe; Who In My Sorrow Bears A Part That None Can Bear Below. It Bids My Trembling Heart Rejoice, It Dries Each Rising Tear; It Tells Me In A Still, Small Voice To Trust And Never Fear. Jesus, The Name I Love So Well, The Name I Love To Hear! No Saint On Earth Its Worth Can Tell, No Heart Conceive How Dear!
Yes. His time. Of return should be. A. Subject of debate. Only if. You're. Serving. Him. At. That. Moment. Let us be. Busy about. Our. Fathers. Business. Lord. Jesus. Let us not. Lose sight of that

Amen, God is moving! Thank you Pastor Jackson. I'm so excited when you preach what God gives you. Love you and your family and your church. Praying for you!
I went through the same thing with my family. You made the better choice to receive Christ. You are a child of God. I left the Catholic church. Imagine having a family that thinks my leaving the Catholics was a betrayal. Hang in there with prayer and talk to Jesus about your pain. You won't get much sympathy from even this minister. God loves you, God loves you, and he lives you. Relax around family. Don't distance yourself unless they are hostile.
I like this subject and appreciate the way it was presented. How many times the Jewish teachers were scolded by Jesus for not KNOWING the time and season, and how many times we are commanded to watch those signs and KNOW the season. Yet those that do follow that command are mostly under the deception of sensationalism. I did not find that deception here.
What is the obsession of Christians with achieving an answer to the question, WHEN, is Jesus returning? It's clear we will never know...so therefore live each day's as though it is the day of His return.
Psalms 36:1-12 [1]Deep in the hearts of the wicked a voice tells them to do wrong. They have no respect for God. [2]They lie to themselves. They don’t see their own faults, so they are not sorry for what they do. [3]Their words are wicked lies. They have stopped doing anything wise or good. [4]They make wicked plans in bed at night. They choose a way of life that does no good. And they never say no to anything evil. [5]Lord, your faithful love reaches to the sky. Your faithfulness is as high as the clouds. [6]Your goodness is higher than the highest mountains. Your fairness is deeper than the deepest ocean. Lord, you protect people and animals. [7] Nothing is more precious than your loving kindness. All people can find protection close to you. [8]They get strength from all the good things in your house. You let them drink from your wonderful river. [9]The fountain of life flows from you. Your light lets us see light. [10]Continue to love those who really know you, and do good to those who are true to you. [11]Don’t let proud people trap me. Don’t let the wicked force me to run away. [12]Put this on their grave markers: “Here fell the wicked. They were crushed. They will never stand up again.”
When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word What a glory He sheds on our way! While we do His good will, He abides with us still And with all who will trust and obey Trust and obey, for there's no other way To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies But His smile quickly drives it away Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear Can abide while we trust and obey Oh, Trust and obey, for there's no other way To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet Or we'll walk by His side in the way What He says we will do, where He sends we will go Never fear, only trust and obey Trust and obey, for there's no other way To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey Oh, Trust and obey, for there's no other way To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey And 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus Just to take Him at His Word Just to rest upon His promise Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord" Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him! How I've proved Him o'er and o'er Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus! Oh, for grace to trust Him more Lord oh, for grace to trust You more Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: Barry Collecutt
Hebrews 12:1-29(KJV) Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears. For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more: (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart: And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:) But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire.
It is easy to see we are in "the beginning of birth pains". But do you know how to tell when the birthpains stop and the first half of the tribulation begins?
Acts 4:1-21,23-37 [1]While Peter and John were speaking to the people, some Jewish leaders came up to them. There were some priests, the captain of the soldiers that guarded the Temple, and some Sadducees. [2]They were upset because of what Peter and John were teaching the people. By telling people about Jesus, the apostles were teaching that people will rise from death. [3]The Jewish leaders arrested Peter and John and put them in jail. It was already night, so they kept them in jail until the next day. [4]But many of the people who heard the apostles believed what they said. There were now about 5000 men in the group of believers. [5]The next day the Jewish rulers, the older Jewish leaders, and the teachers of the law met in Jerusalem. [6]Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, and Alexander were there. Everyone from the high priest’s family was there. [7]They made Peter and John stand before all the people. They asked them over and over, “How did you make this crippled man well? What power did you use? By whose authority did you do this?” [8]Then Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and said to them, “Rulers of the people and you older leaders, [9]are you questioning us today about what we did to help this crippled man? Are you asking us what made him well? [10]We want all of you and all the people of Israel to know that this man was made well by the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth. You nailed Jesus to a cross, but God raised him from death. This man was crippled, but he is now well. He is able to stand here before you because of the power of Jesus! [11]Jesus is ‘the stone that you builders thought was not important. But this stone has become the cornerstone.’ [12]Jesus is the only one who can save people. His name is the only power in the world that has been given to save anyone. We must be saved through him!” [13]The Jewish leaders understood that Peter and John had no special training or education. But they also saw that they were not afraid to speak. So the leaders were amazed. They also realized that Peter and John had been with Jesus. [14]They saw the crippled man standing there beside the apostles. They saw that he was healed, so they could say nothing against the apostles. [15]The Jewish leaders told them to leave the council meeting. Then the leaders talked to each other about what they should do. [16]They said, “What shall we do with these men? Everyone in Jerusalem knows about the miracle they did as a sign from God. It’s too obvious. We can’t say it didn’t happen. [17]But we must make them afraid to talk to anyone again using that name. Then this problem will not spread among the people.” [18]So the Jewish leaders called Peter and John in again. They told the apostles not to say anything or to teach anything in the name of Jesus. [19]But Peter and John answered them, “What do you think is right? What would God want? Should we obey you or God? [20]We cannot be quiet. We must tell people about what we have seen and heard.” [21]The Jewish leaders could not find a way to punish the apostles, because all the people were praising God for what had been done. This miracle was a sign from God. The man who was healed was more than 40 years old. So the Jewish leaders warned the apostles again and let them go free. [23]Peter and John left the meeting of Jewish leaders and went to their own group. They told the group everything that the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders had said to them. [24]When the believers heard this, they all prayed to God with one purpose. They said, “Master, you are the one who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and everything in the world. [25]Our ancestor David was your servant. With the help of the Holy Spirit he wrote these words: ‘Why are the nations shouting? Why are the people planning such useless things? [26]‘The kings of the earth prepare themselves to fight, and the rulers all come together against the Lord and against his Messiah.’ [27]That’s what actually happened when Herod, Pontius Pilate, the other nations, and the people of Israel all came together against Jesus here in Jerusalem. He is your holy Servant, the one you made to be the Messiah. [28]These people who came together against Jesus made your plan happen. It was done because of your power and your will. [29]And now, Lord, listen to what they are saying. They are trying to make us afraid. We are your servants. Help us to say what you want us to say without fear. [30]Help us to be brave by showing us your power. Make sick people well. Cause miraculous signs and wonders to happen by the authority of Jesus, your holy servant.” [31]After the believers prayed, the place where they were meeting shook. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they continued to speak God’s message without fear. [32]The whole group of believers was united in their thinking and in what they wanted. None of them said that the things they had were their own. Instead, they shared everything. [33]With great power the apostles were making it known to everyone that the Lord Jesus was raised from death. And God blessed all the believers very much. [34]None of them could say they needed anything. Everyone who owned fields or houses sold them. They brought the money they got [35]and gave it to the apostles. Then everyone was given whatever they needed. [36]One of the believers was named Joseph. The apostles called him Barnabas, a name that means “one who encourages others.” He was a Levite born in Cyprus. [37]Joseph sold a field he owned. He brought the money and gave it to the apostles.
I have a question. I have been a born again Christian for almost 5 years now and everything about my thought process and heart has changed, my eyes have been opened PTL!! I pray often for the Lord to reveal my sins in my heart so that I can repent and turn from them however I’m struggling with a decision -one of my very close family member is getting married in a same-sex marriage. do I attend their wedding - by me not attending they will have hurt feelings and the whole family also, and most likely stop any contact with me at all. Not to mention it would cause much conflict between my husband and myself for he said he will attend their wedding and believes I should also - my biggest concern is will they hate my God of the Bible never leaving an opportunity for me to speak about God and give them the gospel every chance I get if I now have been banished from the family-I want do what is right in God‘s eyes .I want to have opportunity’s to show my family love., sharing the love of God with them sharing the gospel every chance I get with them etc. they all know my stance on homosexuality and the practice of sin vs The struggle with sin . I have been praying about it and I honestly don’t know what Jesus wants me to do - I will continue to pray and listen for His direction however I would value any opinions or advice on this matter. Thank you , in Christ, colleen
Personally, I would not attend the wedding. Attending a wedding means you support the union and the marriage and it is a public proclamation on your part that you do. You can and should still be loving to the individuals, but the Bible makes clear that we are not to support folks in their sin. I know this is difficult, but many times the Christian life is NOT an easy one as we have to choose the standards and commands of God over the easy acceptance of friends, family, and society. We can't go along to get along when it comes to our faith. One of my Christian friends recently really dressed me down when she asked me if she should attend her niece's same sex wedding and I suggested she not go. A very sore subject indeed. Also, I would not use witnessing to them in the future as a reason to attend the wedding as ultimately their salvation or their not being saved is in God's hands not yours, and is also not yours to orchestrate. If God wants you to continue to witness to these people he will present the opportunities. My best to you in this tough decision.
I believe the Lord will lead you in the right decision for you. Pray earnestly for wisdom and discernment to allow The Holy Spirit to break through your conflicting thoughts and experience total spiritual clarity in alignment with God's Will. Jesus showed us how he sought relationships with those caught up in sin strongholds to be the salt and light necessary to penetrate darkness. We are not sinless, but as believers, we have the power of Jesus through The Holy Spirit. Maybe the Lord councils you to attend the service or maybe He councils you to stay away. He knows your heart, your strengths, weaknesses, gifts, talents and will always use and strengthen those for His glory that will manifest under His authority and in His timing. He is always molding us and our circumstances even as we may not be aware or understand His purpose. James 3:17 "But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere."
Colleen. Stand up for what is right. Do what is right. Not proud, not arrogant. But, God ordained marriage in the Garden of Eden, and nothing has changed. "Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD. serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Josh 24:14,15 DJ ZERO
Hate the sin....love the sinner. Just because you don't like their choice you must not cut your whole family out of your life. Pray for this couple. Attend and enjoy time with your family.
Galatians 5:1-26(KJV) Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love. Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth? This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you. A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be. And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased. I would they were even cut off which trouble you. For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
1 Corinthians 6:1-20(KJV) Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church. I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren? But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers. Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren. Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power. Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Rather than tell people in vivid description about sinful behaviours, your time would be more appropriately spent helping those who are almost there to completely surrender their pride. Though to teach it you first must understand it, to understand it you must first have done it.
Proverbs 8:1-36(KJV) Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice? She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths. She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors. Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man. O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things. For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them. They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge. Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength. By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver. I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment: That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
Acts 3:13, 4:27, 4:30, ... God's servant Jesus. Liked it said in John 17:1-3, the only true God is the Father. Eternal life is to know you, the only true God and to know Jesus Christ, the one you sent. This is the prayer of Jesus Christ to the Father. We have to read 1 Corinthians 15:27 to understand it, does not include God. It was God who put everything under the power of Christ. Read on to verse 28.
Alan Jackson is one of my favorite pastors but I'm stunned and disappointed how many ads are inserted in his sermon videos! When we go to church we are not interrupted with ads and lots of them. This is very obnoxious and distracting. It looks as though you are putting monetary gain over providing God's word uninterrupted. Something to ponder. Do you include transparency for the income received from TH-cam to your congregation? Article regarding ads.... Ad Placement on TH-cam Videos: On any video under eight minutes, there is a clear limit - one ad spot before and after the video. But on anything longer than eight minutes, you can have what are called mid-roll ads, and those are the ones that always interrupt the video just as it's getting good. TH-cam will automatically place a mid-roll ad for you, but in the creator studio, you can go in and add more if you like, anywhere in the video, as many ads as you want. Yes, as many ads as I want.
Why does this particular sermon have all these ad interruptions?? Extremely annoying.. Out of all the sermons I have listened to from Pastor Allen, this is a first.. Interrupts his interesting and informative information!

Psalms 23:1-6(KJV) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Hello beautiful …I’m actually new here following pastor Allen of outreach church and so far he has preached the word of God just as it is and he has strengthened my faith with his preachings…I am happy to be exposed to his messages about God and my spirit wants me to get to know you perhaps we could be sharing the words of God together.....I am catholic and I will want to worship God the rightful way…..I’m from Lima Peru and where do you come from?°^

Thank you Pastor Allen for your mind and heart for serving God in this period. First heard of you on an Eric Metaxes program we saw recently. Thank you for speaking the Truth boldly and Biblically. We are Steve and Gaitha Athans in Columbia Missouri. We understand you know of our community. 😉 We hope to visit World Outreach Center soon and meet you if possible briefly. Thank you Pastor... Blessings on your continued Encouragement for the Church to awake and speak Biblically into the culture of our Community and Nation.

Proverbs 9:10-12(KJV) The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
Abandon the life of VANITY
There Is A Name I Love To Hear,
I Love To Speak Its Worth;
It Sounds Like Music In My Ear,
The Sweetest Name On Earth.
O, How I Love The Saviour’s Name,
O, How I Love The Saviour’s Name,
O, How I Love The Saviour’s Name,
The Sweetest Name On Earth.
It Tells Me Of A Saviour’s Love,
Who Died To Set Me Free;
It Tells Me Of His Precious Blood,
The Sinner’s Perfect Plea.
It Tells Of One Whose Loving Heart
Can Feel My Deepest Woe;
Who In My Sorrow Bears A Part
That None Can Bear Below.
It Bids My Trembling Heart Rejoice,
It Dries Each Rising Tear;
It Tells Me In A Still, Small Voice
To Trust And Never Fear.
Jesus, The Name I Love So Well,
The Name I Love To Hear!
No Saint On Earth Its Worth Can Tell,
No Heart Conceive How Dear!
Oh, how I love Jesus.
Yes. His time. Of return should be. A. Subject of debate. Only if. You're. Serving. Him. At. That. Moment. Let us be. Busy about. Our. Fathers. Business. Lord. Jesus. Let us not. Lose sight of that
In our culture, don’t you wish anybody would even ask!!!!
A word for such a time as this Watching from NI

Amen, God is moving! Thank you Pastor Jackson. I'm so excited when you preach what God gives you. Love you and your family and your church. Praying for you!
My family no longer tolerates my Christianity. And you’re right I don’t feel blessed it hurts to have my children refuse to talk to me. God help me.
I went through the same thing with my family. You made the better choice to receive Christ. You are a child of God. I left the Catholic church. Imagine having a family that thinks my leaving the Catholics was a betrayal. Hang in there with prayer and talk to Jesus about your pain. You won't get much sympathy from even this minister. God loves you, God loves you, and he lives you. Relax around family. Don't distance yourself unless they are hostile.
❤
I like this subject and appreciate the way it was presented. How many times the Jewish teachers were scolded by Jesus for not KNOWING the time and season, and how many times we are commanded to watch those signs and KNOW the season. Yet those that do follow that command are mostly under the deception of sensationalism. I did not find that deception here.
What is the obsession of Christians with achieving an answer to the question, WHEN, is Jesus returning?
It's clear we will never know...so therefore live each day's as though it is the day of His return.
That’s the evil trying to distract us from Gods word
😇👍
Psalms 36:1-12
[1]Deep in the hearts of the wicked a voice tells them to do wrong.
They have no respect for God.
[2]They lie to themselves.
They don’t see their own faults,
so they are not sorry for what they do.
[3]Their words are wicked lies.
They have stopped doing anything wise or good.
[4]They make wicked plans in bed at night.
They choose a way of life that does no good.
And they never say no to anything evil.
[5]Lord, your faithful love reaches to the sky.
Your faithfulness is as high as the clouds.
[6]Your goodness is higher than the highest mountains.
Your fairness is deeper than the deepest ocean.
Lord, you protect people and animals.
[7] Nothing is more precious than your loving kindness.
All people can find protection close to you.
[8]They get strength from all the good things in your house.
You let them drink from your wonderful river.
[9]The fountain of life flows from you.
Your light lets us see light.
[10]Continue to love those who really know you,
and do good to those who are true to you.
[11]Don’t let proud people trap me.
Don’t let the wicked force me to run away.
[12]Put this on their grave markers:
“Here fell the wicked.
They were crushed.
They will never stand up again.”
When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will, He abides with us still
And with all who will trust and obey
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey
Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies
But His smile quickly drives it away
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear
Can abide while we trust and obey
Oh, Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey
Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet
Or we'll walk by His side in the way
What He says we will do, where He sends we will go
Never fear, only trust and obey
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey
Oh, Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey
And 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
Just to take Him at His Word
Just to rest upon His promise
Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord"
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I've proved Him o'er and o'er
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
Oh, for grace to trust Him more
Lord oh, for grace to trust You more

Hebrews 12:1-29(KJV) Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
(For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
For our God is a consuming fire.
It is easy to see we are in "the beginning of birth pains". But do you know how to tell when the birthpains stop and the first half of the tribulation begins?
Should not be a debate. I meant.
53:47 And then the Angolese story..
Acts 4:1-21,23-37
[1]While Peter and John were speaking to the people, some Jewish leaders came up to them. There were some priests, the captain of the soldiers that guarded the Temple, and some Sadducees.
[2]They were upset because of what Peter and John were teaching the people. By telling people about Jesus, the apostles were teaching that people will rise from death.
[3]The Jewish leaders arrested Peter and John and put them in jail. It was already night, so they kept them in jail until the next day.
[4]But many of the people who heard the apostles believed what they said. There were now about 5000 men in the group of believers.
[5]The next day the Jewish rulers, the older Jewish leaders, and the teachers of the law met in Jerusalem.
[6]Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, and Alexander were there. Everyone from the high priest’s family was there.
[7]They made Peter and John stand before all the people. They asked them over and over, “How did you make this crippled man well? What power did you use? By whose authority did you do this?”
[8]Then Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and said to them, “Rulers of the people and you older leaders,
[9]are you questioning us today about what we did to help this crippled man? Are you asking us what made him well?
[10]We want all of you and all the people of Israel to know that this man was made well by the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth. You nailed Jesus to a cross, but God raised him from death. This man was crippled, but he is now well. He is able to stand here before you because of the power of Jesus!
[11]Jesus is
‘the stone that you builders thought was not important.
But this stone has become the cornerstone.’
[12]Jesus is the only one who can save people. His name is the only power in the world that has been given to save anyone. We must be saved through him!”
[13]The Jewish leaders understood that Peter and John had no special training or education. But they also saw that they were not afraid to speak. So the leaders were amazed. They also realized that Peter and John had been with Jesus.
[14]They saw the crippled man standing there beside the apostles. They saw that he was healed, so they could say nothing against the apostles.
[15]The Jewish leaders told them to leave the council meeting. Then the leaders talked to each other about what they should do.
[16]They said, “What shall we do with these men? Everyone in Jerusalem knows about the miracle they did as a sign from God. It’s too obvious. We can’t say it didn’t happen.
[17]But we must make them afraid to talk to anyone again using that name. Then this problem will not spread among the people.”
[18]So the Jewish leaders called Peter and John in again. They told the apostles not to say anything or to teach anything in the name of Jesus.
[19]But Peter and John answered them, “What do you think is right? What would God want? Should we obey you or God?
[20]We cannot be quiet. We must tell people about what we have seen and heard.”
[21]The Jewish leaders could not find a way to punish the apostles, because all the people were praising God for what had been done. This miracle was a sign from God. The man who was healed was more than 40 years old. So the Jewish leaders warned the apostles again and let them go free.
[23]Peter and John left the meeting of Jewish leaders and went to their own group. They told the group everything that the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders had said to them.
[24]When the believers heard this, they all prayed to God with one purpose. They said, “Master, you are the one who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and everything in the world.
[25]Our ancestor David was your servant. With the help of the Holy Spirit he wrote these words:
‘Why are the nations shouting?
Why are the people planning such useless things?
[26]‘The kings of the earth prepare themselves to fight,
and the rulers all come together against the Lord and against his Messiah.’
[27]That’s what actually happened when Herod, Pontius Pilate, the other nations, and the people of Israel all came together against Jesus here in Jerusalem. He is your holy Servant, the one you made to be the Messiah.
[28]These people who came together against Jesus made your plan happen. It was done because of your power and your will.
[29]And now, Lord, listen to what they are saying. They are trying to make us afraid. We are your servants. Help us to say what you want us to say without fear.
[30]Help us to be brave by showing us your power. Make sick people well. Cause miraculous signs and wonders to happen by the authority of Jesus, your holy servant.”
[31]After the believers prayed, the place where they were meeting shook. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they continued to speak God’s message without fear.
[32]The whole group of believers was united in their thinking and in what they wanted. None of them said that the things they had were their own. Instead, they shared everything.
[33]With great power the apostles were making it known to everyone that the Lord Jesus was raised from death. And God blessed all the believers very much.
[34]None of them could say they needed anything. Everyone who owned fields or houses sold them. They brought the money they got
[35]and gave it to the apostles. Then everyone was given whatever they needed.
[36]One of the believers was named Joseph. The apostles called him Barnabas, a name that means “one who encourages others.” He was a Levite born in Cyprus.
[37]Joseph sold a field he owned. He brought the money and gave it to the apostles.
I have a question. I have been a born again Christian for almost 5 years now and everything about my thought process and heart has changed, my eyes have been opened PTL!! I pray often for the Lord to reveal my sins in my heart so that I can repent and turn from them however I’m struggling with a decision -one of my very close family member is getting married in a same-sex marriage. do I attend their wedding - by me not attending they will have hurt feelings and the whole family also, and most likely stop any contact with me at all. Not to mention it would cause much conflict between my husband and myself for he said he will attend their wedding and believes I should also - my biggest concern is will they hate my God of the Bible never leaving an opportunity for me to speak about God and give them the gospel every chance I get if I now have been banished from the family-I want do what is right in God‘s eyes .I want to have opportunity’s to show my family love., sharing the love of God with them sharing the gospel every chance I get with them etc. they all know my stance on homosexuality and the practice of sin vs The struggle with sin . I have been praying about it and I honestly don’t know what Jesus wants me to do - I will continue to pray and listen for His direction however I would value any opinions or advice on this matter. Thank you , in Christ, colleen
Personally, I would not attend the wedding. Attending a wedding means you support the union and the marriage and it is a public proclamation on your part that you do. You can and should still be loving to the individuals, but the Bible makes clear that we are not to support folks in their sin. I know this is difficult, but many times the Christian life is NOT an easy one as we have to choose the standards and commands of God over the easy acceptance of friends, family, and society. We can't go along to get along when it comes to our faith. One of my Christian friends recently really dressed me down when she asked me if she should attend her niece's same sex wedding and I suggested she not go. A very sore subject indeed. Also, I would not use witnessing to them in the future as a reason to attend the wedding as ultimately their salvation or their not being saved is in God's hands not yours, and is also not yours to orchestrate. If God wants you to continue to witness to these people he will present the opportunities. My best to you in this tough decision.
I believe the Lord will lead you in the right decision for you. Pray earnestly for wisdom and discernment to allow The Holy Spirit to break through your conflicting thoughts and experience total spiritual clarity in alignment with God's Will. Jesus showed us how he sought relationships with those caught up in sin strongholds to be the salt and light necessary to penetrate darkness. We are not sinless, but as believers, we have the power of Jesus through The Holy Spirit. Maybe the Lord councils you to attend the service or maybe He councils you to stay away. He knows your heart, your strengths, weaknesses, gifts, talents and will always use and strengthen those for His glory that will manifest under His authority and in His timing. He is always molding us and our circumstances even as we may not be aware or understand His purpose. James 3:17 "But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere."
@@elainebrown8614 good word, thank you and God bless you ♥️
Colleen. Stand up for what is right. Do what is right. Not proud, not arrogant. But, God ordained marriage in the Garden of Eden, and nothing has changed. "Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.
serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Josh 24:14,15

Hate the sin....love the sinner. Just because you don't like their choice you must not cut your whole family out of your life. Pray for this couple. Attend and enjoy time with your family.
Galatians 5:1-26(KJV) Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.
A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.
I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
Enjoy what life you have in the freedom you've had cuz there's a bunch of 17 and 18 year old boys that died for this😅 in wars
💪🙏♥️✌🙋♂️👀🇦🇺
1 Corinthians 6:1-20(KJV) Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?
Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?
If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?
But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.
Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Rather than tell people in vivid description about sinful behaviours, your time would be more appropriately spent helping those who are almost there to completely surrender their pride. Though to teach it you first must understand it, to understand it you must first have done it.
It’s you tube not the church
Proverbs 8:1-36(KJV) Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.
But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
So we can't call mothers Mom or Mum but we adopt Birtha instead!
Acts 3:13, 4:27, 4:30, ... God's servant Jesus. Liked it said in John 17:1-3, the only true God is the Father. Eternal life is to know you, the only true God and to know Jesus Christ, the one you sent. This is the prayer of Jesus Christ to the Father. We have to read 1 Corinthians 15:27 to understand it, does not include God. It was God who put everything under the power of Christ. Read on to verse 28.
Alan Jackson is one of my favorite pastors but I'm stunned and disappointed how many ads are inserted in his sermon videos! When we go to church we are not interrupted with ads and lots of them. This is very obnoxious and distracting. It looks as though you are putting monetary gain over providing God's word uninterrupted. Something to ponder. Do you include transparency for the income received from TH-cam to your congregation?
Article regarding ads.... Ad Placement on TH-cam Videos:
On any video under eight minutes, there is a clear limit - one ad spot before and after the video. But on anything longer than eight minutes, you can have what are called mid-roll ads, and those are the ones that always interrupt the video just as it's getting good. TH-cam will automatically place a mid-roll ad for you, but in the creator studio, you can go in and add more if you like, anywhere in the video, as many ads as you want. Yes, as many ads as I want.
Why does this particular sermon have all these ad interruptions?? Extremely annoying.. Out of all the sermons I have listened to from Pastor Allen, this is a first.. Interrupts his interesting and informative information!
