I grew up Catholic and Jesus mercifully put his word into my hands and I began to read with the help of the Holy Spirit. I was very surprised by how different the word of God was compared to Catholicism and I became a born again Christian " to the praise of his glorious grace."
@HANUNIJA post the scripture that says God loves E. S. A. U. which is the God given ethnicity of all europeans God says they were made to be destroyed 👇 (Romans 9:11-14) for the children being not yet born neither having done any good nor evil that the purpose of God according to election might stand not of works but of him that calleth - as it is written jacob have i loved but E. S. A. U. have i hated what shall we say then is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid(NO) (Romans 9:20-23) nay but oh man who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it why has thou made me thus ? Hath not the potter power over the clay of the "same lump" to make one vessel unto honor(jacob) and another unto dishonor(esaw) what if God willing to show his wrath and to make his power known endured with much long suffering the vessels of wrath "fitted to destruction" (Proverbs 16:4) the LORD hath made all things for himself yea even the wicked for the day of evil (Isaiah 45:7) I form the light and create darkness I make peace and create evil I the LORD do all these things (Habakkuk 2:4-5) his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him he is a proud man neither keepth at home who enlargemeth his desire as hell and as is death and cannot be satisfied (Ecclesiastes 7:13) consider the work of God for who can straighten what he has made crooked?
Dear friend, do you know what you need to do to be born again, can you support your claiming with verses from the Bible? Because I think you believe different from what Bible.
God does not have a phone. I still talk to Him. He does not have twitter, but I still follow Him. He does not have Facebook, we are friends though. He does not have google but I look up to Him. God is great!!!
Can you all please pray for me? I have been struggling with a repetitive sin lately. I believe that through the Lord I can see victory over this sin. I just humbly ask for your prayers. God bless you all!
Ray sorry for the loss of your friend. It is great knowing that when our loved ones go on to be with the Lord that they have received a promotion and we will soon be following.

I grew up a catholic which i was taught the Bible all the prayers etc but I never understood anything they talked about. When I was 12 I went to a non denominational church and that’s when I gave my life to Jesus. After straying from God many times at 21, a young mom of two I’ve finally been born again and it took so long to realize it’s a relationship with Christ not about a church. God is good he’s changed me. Like ray said it’s not about acting good for God it’s God making you a changed person who does good.
I do hope you rethink Catholicism. I'm glad you were able to open your heart to Jesus thanks to our non-denom brothers and sisters, but it's only in the Catholic church that you find the fullness of the truth.
@@nemo2179 no I’ve found so much truth in a relationship with Christ alone. It’s not about a church it’s about sharing the gospel being a follower of Jesus and fearing God, repeating to him alone not a priest. God has no religion
@@kamryncalderon6256 But God build a church (Catholic Church) and through this religion you may know Christ and His Bride (His church). Because of His church we have the Bible. Yes, it was the Catholic church who compiled all the books into one and called it "Bible". Hence, the bible that you are reading is a Catholic book.
Correct me if im wrong but all religions are pig puke no scripture says be a catholic mormon baptist SDA etc Christianity was created by europeans with the foundation of each denomination being white jesus the image of the beast the bible nor God have anything to do with religion
I just wanted to share that October 31 was a great day. We had lots of our neighbors come by our house and we gave out lots of the million dollar tracts. I’m praying that at least one of these tracts will fall on a humble heart and God uses it for His glory!

Ephesians 2:8-9 says that you are saved by God's grace through faith, not by your works, because salvation is a gift from God.

@@digitalsublime Animals were punished for our sins. Give and take. If you want something from someone, they have to get something in exchange right. It's like a transaction.

Ray what a small world, I went to my grand mothers house today and she mentioned the nice printer gentleman next door passed away. My grandmother lives next downtown next to the place of business and her other neighbor a single mother of two works for him and showed me his obituary. I said, “ Wait a minute!

As a Father of a son 18 and a daughter 20 I can understand what a gut punch that would be.

My line that I use most often is that “God Doesn’t Make Mistakes” he has one plan for us and Satan wants to turn that plan upside down and backwards. Sexual desire is a choice, just like choosing to say loyal to your spouse. It’s very easy to be attracted to another woman and let my mind run away with itself. Just like everyone else we have to restrain those desires. We live in a “if it feels good then do it” and a “Not my fault”world. Just keep pointing that out and keep Praying, I will remember you and your daughter in my Prayers.

I honestly don’t see how people can answer no to any of these with a straight face. Especially the stealing question. Find it hard to believe that person never took an extra cookie from the jar when mom said no more
Think we humans level our sin and think oh it’s just a cookie. But I believe that our perfect God does not judge us by those standards but only by the perfectness of God and none of us can stand up to that. Praise God for giving us sinners Jesus the only way and truth❣️💞
I agree, we've all stolen. Be it that cookie, or downloading music, or stealing time from our employers by diddling around on the internet instead of working; it's things nobody ever considers because it's so normal. I couldn't answer "no" to any of the commandments; I've broken every single one of them, if "only" in the heart like murder or adultery.
@HANUNIJA and how does this relate to what has been said? You have given no valid reason to not take vaccinations. If someone wants to take it, let them be, as there is no reasoning for them to not take it, just as there is no reaosning to force someone to take it. And as for the tattoos, piercings, make up, fake eye lashes, braided hair, etc.... Please study the context of the verses about those things, as they are often taken out of contect. If we are too caught up in things like that, it distracts from Christ. Please do not shame people for their personal convictions, as that is not your job.
I never understood why people thought that they needed to confess to a priest to reach God's ear. We don't! As soon as I realize that I've committed yet another sin, I ask for forgiveness right away, one on one with my Lord, no mediator required!
Well Vickie, if you really thought about it, you would realize that 'people' think they need to confess to a priest because they have been taught that with fear of hell or pugatory since they were seven years old. So we need to pray for their release from bondage as happened to me. As for you: your also are a victim of religion because you have not learned what God teaches in his Word rightly divided (2 Tim. 2:15). If you are saved, God has already forgiven you. "It is finished." You need THANK him for the forgiveness of that sin. God bless you,
I don't think so, in catholic tradition you're born again at baptism and christmation in the East, confirmation in the west. The conundrum for Ray is, if I'm born again and then I sin again, then what? I have to be born again again?
@@digitalsublime Since infants are typically baptized in Catholicism, then the differentiation would be: Does being “born again” require an intentional, cognitive act on the part of the recipient?
@Jaco No Catholics are born again. The term "born again" was synonymous with baptism to early Christians. That really didn't change until the time of the pietists in the 17th century. So yes Catholics are born again. we baptize infants because it is biblical and traditional. But as you said, “does being born again require an intentional, cognitive act on the part of the recipient?” Well consider this, The same defense Martin Luther made, do you have faith while you are sleeping? While you are in a coma? One of the Two Pillars of the Protestant Reformation (Revolution) is faith alone. Justificatio Sola Fide or Sola Fide means faith alone is sufficient for salvation without any good works or even obedience to the Ten Commandments. As long as Jesus died on the cross his blood will cover me and I am saved, as long as I have faith in him. well it’s impossible to be cognitively aware of anything while you’re in a coma. Same when you’re sleeping. So if I died in my sleep or in a coma, would I still go to heaven?
@@digitalsublime 1 John 1:9 says that “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Baptism is an outward manifestation of an intentional decision made to associate with, and follow Christ. This would be an intentional act, to follow after, and adhere to, the teachings of Jesus.
@@johnfitzgeraldkennedy5265 At the point when one places his faith and trust in Jesus’ finished work on the cross as my substitutionary payment for my sin, I am “tracking” toward heaven. My temporary state of mind (ie being asleep) has no bearing on whether I’m going to heaven. MLK advocated for justification by faith (I cannot do anything to “deserve” heaven), but it also presupposes that, as the Holy Spirit now indwells that person, good fruit/good deeds will naturally manifest. It’s just important that we’re not counting on our own good efforts to hope to gain redemption (or offset past wrongs) in God’s eyes.
We just "lost" our brother to Heaven -- now he lives with Jesus! Thank you for reading 1 Thessalonians 4:13. Gotta admit, right now I'm sad. But we serve "the God of all comfort," so I'm waiting on Him.

This man was so humble and kind and receptive. He MUST get himself free of the Catholic Church and all of the demands they put on his soul and salvation...just to get to PURGATORY(which is not even Biblical). I have had 3 members of my family molested by Catholic Priests, so I don't think highly of their "men's traditions." Confess to GOD, the Father...in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ!
I bought some of those Four Gospels books. I have a brother in law and his step son who are seeking. I have had a couple of opportunities to witness to them and gave one of the booklets to Danny, my brother in law....he also has a friend who has been sharing the Gospel with him....so he knows that God is "poking" him. What a wonderful blessing it has been to witness to someone who actually wants to hear what I have to say about Jesus ! Thank you for making these booklets available at such a reasonable cost ! I pray for more opportunities....as my whole family is lost and I so want them to enter into the Kingdom of God and be with me in eternity ! Bless you Ray....and everyone you work with over there in California !
Catholics sadly do many things that are not biblical. Jesus IS our High Priest & we are to confess our sins before Him ALONE. Jesus Himself is the mediator between Father God & us, so no need for a human "priest" or anyone else to stand before us & Father God. When Jesus died the veil to the Holy of Holies was rent(torn) from top to bottom & that means we ALL can enter in unafraid to the Holy of Holies were Jesus is & confess our sins, be washed in His blood & be forgiven, born again & on our way to Heaven. Thank God for my brother Ray telling God's truth to so many.
What happens if the priest forgets one of the sins you confess to? That's just one reason we should and are allowed to pray directly to God ourselves. Cut out the middle MAN and go straight to the SOURCE. JESUS CHRIST
But what if the Jesus you talk to is the Mormon or JHV witness one, is there no standard? How you know you are not in spiritual delusion? Why Jesus tells the apostles that they have the authority to forgive sins?
@@digitalsublime there is only ONE Jesus. What does what Jesus told the apostles have to do with priests or preachers? Nothing. Priests or preachers aren't performing miracles today and not one of us needs one of them to get to heaven. We don't need them to pray for us at all. Jesus taught us how to pray at the sermon on the mount. He said nothing about having someone else pray for us, he said nothing about praying to Mary. I'm sure you remember how the prayer starts. OUR FATHER WHICH ARE IN HEAVEN.........I don't have enough trust in any other human to relay what's in my heart and mind to God. Like I said, what if he forgets one sin you're asking for forgiveness from and you go through life thinking you've been forgiven for it to find out you weren't? Not a risk I'm willing to take to just keep "church tradition". He also told us not to pray to dead people. Mary is dead in a grave just like my grandma is. My grandma can't help me now no more than Moses or Mary can. Jesus said if a man comes preaching a different Gospel than Him that man is a false prophet. My advice to anyone confused about what to do is to READ YOUR BIBLE and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth to them. He will never guide you in the wrong direction
@@jelly7310 Interesting, you know some people thought Jesus was not a real person (gnostics) others that he was not God (arians) and there are many versions of Jesus in thousands of denominations. You say you don't trust any men, so you don't trust in the apostles? Nor the church that decided the canon of the Bible? But you trust the words in the Bible?
Tell me , can a Protestant pastor cast out demons in the name of Jesus?? No? Thats right..you cant , you need a Catholic priest to get the job done. I wonder why ??i think demons know whatbis the real church of Jesus Christ. That should tell Protestants a lot.
I learn quite a bit from Ray's sharing. We need to choose Jesus. Currently, I'm only giving money on my channel, but I hope to soon start giving out the gospel. I published a video where the person could choose either cash or a box that said, "...with God all things are possible." I'm glad they all chose the box.
Read the Book of Hebrews to understand that the old testament priesthood is done away with through the sacrifice of our great high priest Jesus Christ once and for all: By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore. Hebrews 7:22-28 KJV

Jesus is the cornerstone of His church and the teachings of His Apostles are what He has built His church on. It is the succession of Apostolic TEACHING.......the Apostles all died. The medieval RCC wasn't teaching the Bible. Grace is the unmerited favor of God.......not a medicinal substance that is infused and must be co-operated with. Nature isn't to be perfected......Nature is renewed. Tradition in the New Testament is the tradition of the elders.....the oral tradition of the Pharisees. This oral tradition is the Babylonian Talmud. The Orthodox Jews of today follow that exact same Talmud. Yes, the RCC teachings are based on their tradition.......and not on Scripture.

Amen! I wasn't brought up in the church, only sent a few times to one to basically be baby-sat with a bunch of other little kiddies. It was brief, however, I learned of His love. As I grew up, life on my own, sinning, in sin, in the world's cult-ure, I was pretty miserable. I had married a Roman Catholic thinking he was what I was looking for and he was/is so lost! My marriage imploded. G-d used the division for good. I was broken, remolded, honed, and He continues, with a bit of polishing from time to time. It has been the best, all because a neighbor I had met shared her Bible study information with me. It was a Bible study of born again Catholics! I had no idea how rare that is, charismatic yet! I was lead, and saved, gifts of the spirit, the whole sha-bang! There is nothing, NOTHING better then a personal relationship with the living G-d, Jesus the Christ! This is the peace and freedom life was meant to have for all of us! He teaches me moment by moment, leads me in His will for my life and His purpose. He has been the best thing ever in/for my life! He Rocks! What I thought was going to make me happy in life wasn't even close to the joy I have now with my Lord. This is 'it'! 'It's' Not of this world! Humbled, grateful, blessed! Thank you Ray for your faithfulness to G-d, for an 'unreach people'! 💌
I just had a witnessing encounter using wotm listening to Ray now I'm glad to hear that he sometimes has an edge to his questions. I just wish I had his light heartedness also. I need a little more lightheartedness in my voice when witnessing.
If you are a Catholic, you should read "THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ROME" by James McCarthy. It will open your mind how Rome deviated and twisted the simplicity of the gospel message. Salvation is a gift which requires that we accept it personally, we need to repent and acknowledge our need for Jesus and completely trust in Him. You can always tell the difference between religious spirit and a personal relationship with Jesus by the fruit their lives produce.
@@Lerian_V if you had a thinking mind you would see the obvious. Something is wrong with the Catholic church? Just the other day another Cardinal from New Jersey was accused of sexual misconduct. You can tell the tree by the fruit it bears. I personally know several people who were sexually and physically abused by priests, and who completely are turned off by religion. There is a reason why people are leaving the church in droves. Religion and hypocrisy doesn't feed the soul. In Jesus words the leaders of the church starting with the Pope are like whitewashed tombs. Once you find Jesus you really don't care about the religious conventions of a dead church.
@@thehemulen8478 John16:13 and John 14:17 for starters. I’ll give you the 2nd: “the Soirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him. You know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.” You won’t ever be able to believe what the bible says is true unless you first receive Christ as Lord and Savior. As long as you aren’t in relationship with Him you will never be able to accept the truth of scripture. Accepting Christ is accepting a relationship. All that religious stuff is man made rules that have nothing to do with God. If you ever want to see a pretty accurate depiction of Jesus, you can download the free app called “The Chosen.” It’s a made for TV series about the life and ministry of Christ. They are only up to Season 2 ep. 5 which is airing tonight. It can be watched on any device and even though your TV (although Idk how that works). This isn’t a plug for the show. It’s merely a suggestion for you to learn a bit without the pressure of stepping into a church which can be intimidating. God wishes all of us to be in a relationship with him. A friendship that is deeper than any you will ever encounter. It is a love greater than any ever recorded in the history of mankind. It is forgiveness of sins, washed completely clean and never to be remembered by Him again. Even if you bring it up! The Chosen is actually in reference to the children of Israel and the fascinating part of the program is that a Messianic Rabbi (a completed Jew) is a consultant for the show and the deeper insight he brings about the Old and New Testament is fascinating. Sorry I got carried away but since watching this and listening to some of the messages Rabbi Jason shares of TH-cam I have been feeling like church has been cheating me out of so much! God bless and I hope you become a seeker!
@@thehemulen8478 No the Hily Spirit if God says it’s true and since all scripture is God inspired we know it’s true because God is not a man that he should lie (Num 23:19) and since He is God He doesn’t change like man does (Mal. 3:6) and there are ither things it is impossible for Him to do. To be honest there isn’t much anyone can say if you yourself aren’t interested. I, or anyone else, can talk to you until we are blue in the face. Instead of wasting your time going back and forth, just for the heck of it…call it research, say you are determined to prove the bible is a lie, but pick one up and read the book of John. It’s the 4th gospel. Select an easy to understand translation like The Living Bible. You never know, you just might be right. If you read for yourself you can say without a doubt that God is a liar.
@@thehemulen8478 I don’t know the exact date. I remember being little and going to Vacation Bible School” and hearing about Jesus and learning the books of the bible. But I never truly understood what it was all about. I was away from the church for many years but I just always felt inside me, maybe in my heart, that something was missing. Any woman can tell you it’s not unusual to want to go shopping and someone asks her what she’s looking for and she will say “I don’t know but I will know it when I see it.” I guess it sounds crazy but it’s true. When I got married my husband wasn’t a Christian but his mom was and she would watch Televangelists through the week. It was kind of hard to escape hearing the things being said without actually leaving the house. But I knew what I was hearing was true. Even if I didn’t want to admit it. It still took me a long time to stop running but it was as scripture says “you will know the truth…” (John 8:32). You can hear someone saying something and you know they are lying. You can also hear someone say something and know they are speaking the truth. It wasn’t until about 1980 that I finally quit running. But again, every person has to decide for himself. We don’t want to believe God or His Son because we love our sin. If we believe in His Son, if we believe that what he says is true we have to give that up. It’s a crossroads we all come to. But even God will not force you to believe in Him.
@@thehemulen8478 as far as owning slaves goes, if you are talking about slaves in America yes that was and is a sin and people who “owned” them and still claimed to love God were hypocrites. It is why there were so many fighting against it. Same with beating them. Polygamy is also a sin. Those who believe it’s ok are living by man made rules snd laws. When you bring man’s decisions into the mix you are always going to end up with a mess. Everything you have listed is because man has decided this is how it’s going to be done. The statement that “all men are created equal,” is actually scripture but all if God’s guidelines have been corrupted. It stems from the garden when satan tempted Eve. From there on out, everything you see that is wrong in this world is because man has removed God from everything. As far as homosexuals I will not comment on that but suffice it to say that God does not tolerate sin. There are very specific guidelines for interpersonal relationships. If we choose to ignore them there are consequences. As far as beating people, shooting them or any other extreme reactions to a difference of opinion, they too are a sin. We are called to live in peace. There is certainly nothing wrong with disagreeing but beating someone up because they don’t agree with the way you think is inexcusable. If people would act in love and stop pointing their fingers and calling people names there might be a little less “them vs. us.”
IT IS FINISHED i knew that too but as a roman catholic never was that explained pray the rosary is advised more being "born again" meant changing religion
Cradle Catholics : It is true... if you are Catholic you are in the rituals of man ..took me years to get rid of every religious bone in my body .. and it was not done by me .. the WORD crucified me when I finally completely heartbroken I spoke to God directly and said show me in the WORD... shortly after I was literally instructed to confess aloud to a friend by name . It was the beginning of the end ..if someone tells you it happens over night they are deceiving you .. wisdom comes when we are ready. He speaks to us in our own "tongue" . When you are ready you will be abnle to hear other people hearts. Make no mistake .. if you are not being challenged you are being controlled.
I grew up Catholic and Jesus mercifully put his word into my hands and I began to read with the help of the Holy Spirit. I was very surprised by how different the word of God was compared to Catholicism and I became a born again Christian " to the praise of his glorious grace."
I'm sorry for your loss. How beautiful to know you will see him again in Heaven.
This man touched me. He was humble indeed. May he be reborn in the name of our Lord!
Amen 🙏

@HANUNIJA post the scripture that says God loves
E. S. A. U. which is the God given ethnicity of all europeans God says they were made to be destroyed
👇
(Romans 9:11-14) for the children being not yet born neither having done any good nor evil that the purpose of God according to election might stand not of works but of him that calleth - as it is written jacob have i loved but
E. S. A. U. have i hated what shall we say then is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid(NO)
(Romans 9:20-23) nay but oh man who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it why has thou made me thus ? Hath not the potter power over the clay of the "same lump" to make one vessel unto honor(jacob) and another unto dishonor(esaw) what if God willing to show his wrath and to make his power known endured with much long suffering the vessels of wrath "fitted to destruction"
(Proverbs 16:4) the LORD hath made all things for himself yea even the wicked for the day of evil
(Isaiah 45:7) I form the light and create darkness I make peace and create evil I the LORD do all these things
(Habakkuk 2:4-5) his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him he is a proud man neither keepth at home who enlargemeth his desire as hell and as is death and cannot be satisfied
(Ecclesiastes 7:13) consider the work of God for who can straighten what he has made crooked?
Dear friend, do you know what you need to do to be born again, can you support your claiming with verses from the Bible? Because I think you believe different from what Bible.

Ray sorry for the loss of your friend. It is great knowing that when our loved ones go on to be with the Lord that they have received a promotion and we will soon be following.

What a precious, humble man....:). A really sweet Catholic man who is entering The Kingdom of God...... because of the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus!! Yay Jesus!! Ted Schempp, Nashville
I grew up a catholic which i was taught the Bible all the prayers etc but I never understood anything they talked about. When I was 12 I went to a non denominational church and that’s when I gave my life to Jesus. After straying from God many times at 21, a young mom of two I’ve finally been born again and it took so long to realize it’s a relationship with Christ not about a church. God is good he’s changed me. Like ray said it’s not about acting good for God it’s God making you a changed person who does good.
I do hope you rethink Catholicism. I'm glad you were able to open your heart to Jesus thanks to our non-denom brothers and sisters, but it's only in the Catholic church that you find the fullness of the truth.
@@nemo2179 no I’ve found so much truth in a relationship with Christ alone. It’s not about a church it’s about sharing the gospel being a follower of Jesus and fearing God, repeating to him alone not a priest. God has no religion
@@kamryncalderon6256 But God build a church (Catholic Church) and through this religion you may know Christ and His Bride (His church).
Because of His church we have the Bible. Yes, it was the Catholic church who compiled all the books into one and called it "Bible". Hence, the bible that you are reading is a Catholic book.
divided by men and buildings ... United By Christ .. and that's all that matters
Correct me if im wrong but all religions are pig puke no scripture says be a catholic mormon baptist SDA etc Christianity was created by europeans with the foundation of each denomination being white jesus the image of the beast the bible nor God have anything to do with religion
I just wanted to share that October 31 was a great day. We had lots of our neighbors come by our house and we gave out lots of the million dollar tracts. I’m praying that at least one of these tracts will fall on a humble heart and God uses it for His glory!

Funny enough, you say that you once were Arminian and "found the truth," while I once believed in Calvinism and do not believe it anymore after a long time of prayer and study.

For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous." (Romans 5:18-19)

As a Father of a son 18 and a daughter 20 I can understand what a gut punch that would be. Satan has hit our world with a curveball in the Liberal Media, Teachers, College Professors, Social Media, music, TV and more. I am a broken record when it comes to pointing out the hypocrisy in the media, teachers, professors, music, TV when my kids are around. My line that I use most often is that “God Doesn’t Make Mistakes” he has one plan for us and Satan wants to turn that plan upside down and backwards. Sexual desire is a choice, just like choosing to say loyal to your spouse. It’s very easy to be attracted to another woman and let my mind run away with itself. Just like everyone else we have to restrain those desires. We live in a “if it feels good then do it” and a “Not my fault”world. Just keep pointing that out and keep Praying, I will remember you and your daughter in my Prayers.

Awesome videos Ray!
Ray, you were so gentle and gracious with this man. You displayed the tact and self control that could only come from the Holy Spirit. While you could have tore into his unbiblical beliefs, you withheld. You are a great example to me for sharing the gospel. Thank you
Great video!
Thank you Ray for sharing your friends story with us. I pray for him, and sorry that you lost a very good friend. I pray for Eric and I pray for you Ray, that God will watch over you and keep you safe, for this world "needs" people like you out there !🙏❤
I've never been this early before, I love your simple explanations of the gospel!
Praise God brother Ray
I honestly don’t see how people can answer no to any of these with a straight face. Especially the stealing question. Find it hard to believe that person never took an extra cookie from the jar when mom said no more
He did admit to being a liar right before he denied ever stealing anything.
Think we humans level our sin and think oh it’s just a cookie. But I believe that our perfect God does not judge us by those standards but only by the perfectness of God and none of us can stand up to that. Praise God for giving us sinners Jesus the only way and truth❣️💞
They may not believe that taking something like a cookie without permission is a sin. Or they are lying 🤷🏼♀️ both are good possibilities
I agree, we've all stolen. Be it that cookie, or downloading music, or stealing time from our employers by diddling around on the internet instead of working; it's things nobody ever considers because it's so normal. I couldn't answer "no" to any of the commandments; I've broken every single one of them, if "only" in the heart like murder or adultery.
@HANUNIJA and how does this relate to what has been said?
You have given no valid reason to not take vaccinations. If someone wants to take it, let them be, as there is no reasoning for them to not take it, just as there is no reaosning to force someone to take it.
And as for the tattoos, piercings, make up, fake eye lashes, braided hair, etc.... Please study the context of the verses about those things, as they are often taken out of contect. If we are too caught up in things like that, it distracts from Christ.
Please do not shame people for their personal convictions, as that is not your job.

I never understood why people thought that they needed to confess to a priest to reach God's ear. We don't! As soon as I realize that I've committed yet another sin, I ask for forgiveness right away, one on one with my Lord, no mediator required!
Well Vickie, if you really thought about it, you would realize that 'people' think they need to confess to a priest because they have been taught that with fear of hell or pugatory since they were seven years old. So we need to pray for their release from bondage as happened to me. As for you: your also are a victim of religion because you have not learned what God teaches in his Word rightly divided (2 Tim. 2:15). If you are saved, God has already forgiven you. "It is finished." You need THANK him for the forgiveness of that sin. God bless you,

“Have you been born again?”
Sadly, most Catholics: “No”.
Jesus: You must be born again to enter the Kingdom of Heaven
Wow, we got a problem here.
I don't think so, in catholic tradition you're born again at baptism and christmation in the East, confirmation in the west. The conundrum for Ray is, if I'm born again and then I sin again, then what? I have to be born again again?
@@digitalsublime Since infants are typically baptized in Catholicism, then the differentiation would be: Does being “born again” require an intentional, cognitive act on the part of the recipient?
@Jaco
No Catholics are born again. The term "born again" was synonymous with baptism to early Christians. That really didn't change until the time of the pietists in the 17th century. So yes Catholics are born again. we baptize infants because it is biblical and traditional. But as you said, “does being born again require an intentional, cognitive act on the part of the recipient?” Well consider this, The same defense Martin Luther made, do you have faith while you are sleeping? While you are in a coma? One of the Two Pillars of the Protestant Reformation (Revolution) is faith alone. Justificatio Sola Fide or Sola Fide means faith alone is sufficient for salvation without any good works or even obedience to the Ten Commandments. As long as Jesus died on the cross his blood will cover me and I am saved, as long as I have faith in him. well it’s impossible to be cognitively aware of anything while you’re in a coma. Same when you’re sleeping. So if I died in my sleep or in a coma, would I still go to heaven?
@@digitalsublime 1 John 1:9 says that “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
Baptism is an outward manifestation of an intentional decision made to associate with, and follow Christ. This would be an intentional act, to follow after, and adhere to, the teachings of Jesus.
@@johnfitzgeraldkennedy5265 At the point when one places his faith and trust in Jesus’ finished work on the cross as my substitutionary payment for my sin, I am “tracking” toward heaven. My temporary state of mind (ie being asleep) has no bearing on whether I’m going to heaven.
MLK advocated for justification by faith (I cannot do anything to “deserve” heaven), but it also presupposes that, as the Holy Spirit now indwells that person, good fruit/good deeds will naturally manifest. It’s just important that we’re not counting on our own good efforts to hope to gain redemption (or offset past wrongs) in God’s eyes.
the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom

Hello
This man was so humble and kind and receptive. He MUST get himself free of the Catholic Church and all of the demands they put on his soul and salvation...just to get to PURGATORY(which is not even Biblical). I have had 3 members of my family molested by Catholic Priests, so I don't think highly of their "men's traditions." Confess to GOD, the Father...in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ!
Me: I promise, I'm not going to cry at another Ray Comfort video.
Also me: Lying is sin, repent!
I bought some of those Four Gospels books. I have a brother in law and his step son who are seeking. I have had a couple of opportunities to witness to them and gave one of the booklets to Danny, my brother in law....he also has a friend who has been sharing the Gospel with him....so he knows that God is "poking" him. What a wonderful blessing it has been to witness to someone who actually wants to hear what I have to say about Jesus ! Thank you for making these booklets available at such a reasonable cost ! I pray for more opportunities....as my whole family is lost and I so want them to enter into the Kingdom of God and be with me in eternity ! Bless you Ray....and everyone you work with over there in California !
Eileen. God bless you. Praying for your family.
@@LivingWaters
Catholics sadly do many things that are not biblical. Jesus IS our High Priest & we are to confess our sins before Him ALONE. Jesus Himself is the mediator between Father God & us, so no need for a human "priest" or anyone else to stand before us & Father God.
When Jesus died the veil to the Holy of Holies was rent(torn) from top to bottom & that means we ALL can enter in unafraid to the Holy of Holies were Jesus is & confess our sins, be washed in His blood & be forgiven, born again & on our way to Heaven.
Thank God for my brother Ray telling God's truth to so many.
That bible you have...... it came from the Catholic Church
@@clothyoriginal Every word in the bible is inspired by God Himself.
@billy bob
Except the word “Bible” 😄
Very respectful & tactfully handled. God Bless you and your ministry Ray.
What happens if the priest forgets one of the sins you confess to? That's just one reason we should and are allowed to pray directly to God ourselves. Cut out the middle MAN and go straight to the SOURCE. JESUS CHRIST
But what if the Jesus you talk to is the Mormon or JHV witness one, is there no standard? How you know you are not in spiritual delusion? Why Jesus tells the apostles that they have the authority to forgive sins?
@@digitalsublime there is only ONE Jesus. What does what Jesus told the apostles have to do with priests or preachers? Nothing. Priests or preachers aren't performing miracles today and not one of us needs one of them to get to heaven. We don't need them to pray for us at all. Jesus taught us how to pray at the sermon on the mount. He said nothing about having someone else pray for us, he said nothing about praying to Mary. I'm sure you remember how the prayer starts. OUR FATHER WHICH ARE IN HEAVEN.........I don't have enough trust in any other human to relay what's in my heart and mind to God. Like I said, what if he forgets one sin you're asking for forgiveness from and you go through life thinking you've been forgiven for it to find out you weren't? Not a risk I'm willing to take to just keep "church tradition". He also told us not to pray to dead people. Mary is dead in a grave just like my grandma is. My grandma can't help me now no more than Moses or Mary can. Jesus said if a man comes preaching a different Gospel than Him that man is a false prophet. My advice to anyone confused about what to do is to READ YOUR BIBLE and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth to them. He will never guide you in the wrong direction
Interesting point ❤️
@@jelly7310 Interesting, you know some people thought Jesus was not a real person (gnostics) others that he was not God (arians) and there are many versions of Jesus in thousands of denominations. You say you don't trust any men, so you don't trust in the apostles? Nor the church that decided the canon of the Bible? But you trust the words in the Bible?
Tell me , can a Protestant pastor cast out demons in the name of Jesus?? No? Thats right..you cant , you need a Catholic priest to get the job done. I wonder why ??i think demons know whatbis the real church of Jesus Christ. That should tell Protestants a lot.
God bless everyone! 🙏🏻✝️🕊
He is not trusting in tradition of men he is trusting in what Jesus taught to men
I learn quite a bit from Ray's sharing. We need to choose Jesus. Currently, I'm only giving money on my channel, but I hope to soon start giving out the gospel. I published a video where the person could choose either cash or a box that said, "...with God all things are possible." I'm glad they all chose the box.
Read the Book of Hebrews to understand that the old testament priesthood is done away with through the sacrifice of our great high priest Jesus Christ once and for all:
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
Hebrews 7:22-28 KJV
These videos warm my heart.
If you don't trust traditions of men, wouldn't that rule out the canon of scripture as well? At what point the Church became a tradition of men?
The RCC didn't " give us the Bible".......The RCC acknowledged what had already been for many years the books believers read as inspired Scripture.
@@carmensiekierke3579 You are inventing a story. The real one is that some churches had some books others had another, most of the teaching was oral, many books could have been in but didn't, is not the RCC is the true church, the RCC is a thing from tenth century when it split from the Eastern Churches.
Also there are many books that are really important and not read because of the canon by protestants, but that the Romans and orthodox use profusely, like Enoch, the Didache, Barnabas etc.. also all the writings of the Fathers pre, post nicene. Read the Didache it will help ;)
@@digitalsublime All of the books of the New Testament were in writing by 95AD. The Apocryphal books are not inspired Scripture....and that is easy to see. The writings of the early church Fathers are not inspired. It wasn't until the early 5th century for many of the early church Fathers to walk away from premillennial chiliasm. Why did they finally reject chiliasm? Because the sources were extra-biblical, Jewish writings that were anti-Christian. Premillennialism didn't reappear until the early 19th century with dispensational John Nelson Darby.
@@carmensiekierke3579 You are so off, the council of Rome was in 385 that's a lot of time from you arbitrary date of 95. And canon is not only about inspired is about its use on liturgy. There is an un interrupted apostolic succession and tradition. If you feel that you don't need to know or participate in it, that's your prerogative, but was it that gave you your Bible ;)
@@digitalsublime The Book of Revelation was written between 90-95 AD. Yes, canon is based on the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit inspired both the Old Testament and the New Testament is the same way. You don't even know how the Jews determined their canon? It had to be written down.
Jesus is the cornerstone of His church and the teachings of His Apostles are what He has built His church on. It is the succession of Apostolic TEACHING.......the Apostles all died. The medieval RCC wasn't teaching the Bible. Grace is the unmerited favor of God.......not a medicinal substance that is infused and must be co-operated with. Nature isn't to be perfected......Nature is renewed. Tradition in the New Testament is the tradition of the elders.....the oral tradition of the Pharisees. This oral tradition is the Babylonian Talmud. The Orthodox Jews of today follow that exact same Talmud.
Yes, the RCC teachings are based on their tradition.......and not on Scripture.
The RCC has had three living " popes" at the same time.......who fought for dominance. You have two living "popes" in Rome in 2021...and the man sitting on your throne is someone half of the RCC would like to overthrow.
Man you are a legend, very happy TH-cam still has some god left in their algorithms and recommend you videos. Keep it up Brother and God Bless You 🙏
Don't trust in your religious traditions of men. Only God can save you. We cannot save ourselves by being good and neither can a priest, pastor, or any other religious leader. Surrender yourself to Christ. Trust Him❣️🙏 😄
Ok so we shouldn't trust the canon of the Bible?... that's a tradition of men.

Amen! I wasn't brought up in the church, only sent a few times to one to basically be baby-sat with a bunch of other little kiddies. It was brief, however, I learned of His love. As I grew up, life on my own, sinning, in sin, in the world's cult-ure, I was pretty miserable. I had married a Roman Catholic thinking he was what I was looking for and he was/is so lost! My marriage imploded. G-d used the division for good. I was broken, remolded, honed, and He continues, with a bit of polishing from time to time. It has been the best, all because a neighbor I had met shared her Bible study information with me. It was a Bible study of born again Catholics! I had no idea how rare that is, charismatic yet! I was lead, and saved, gifts of the spirit, the whole sha-bang! There is nothing, NOTHING better then a personal relationship with the living G-d, Jesus the Christ! This is the peace and freedom life was meant to have for all of us! He teaches me moment by moment, leads me in His will for my life and His purpose. He has been the best thing ever in/for my life! He Rocks! What I thought was going to make me happy in life wasn't even close to the joy I have now with my Lord. This is 'it'! 'It's' Not of this world! Humbled, grateful, blessed!

If you are a Catholic, you should read "THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ROME" by James McCarthy. It will open your mind how Rome deviated and twisted the simplicity of the gospel message. Salvation is a gift which requires that we accept it personally, we need to repent and acknowledge our need for Jesus and completely trust in Him. You can always tell the difference between religious spirit and a personal relationship with Jesus by the fruit their lives produce.
@@Lerian_V if you had a thinking mind you would see the obvious. Something is wrong with the Catholic church? Just the other day another Cardinal from New Jersey was accused of sexual misconduct. You can tell the tree by the fruit it bears. I personally know several people who were sexually and physically abused by priests, and who completely are turned off by religion. There is a reason why people are leaving the church in droves. Religion and hypocrisy doesn't feed the soul. In Jesus words the leaders of the church starting with the Pope are like whitewashed tombs. Once you find Jesus you really don't care about the religious conventions of a dead church.
Thank you Sir for sharing this video. Love y'all ~John
Just got my tracts!!!
May Eric’s eyes be opened to the truth of the gospel.
@@thehemulen8478 John16:13 and John 14:17 for starters.
I’ll give you the 2nd: “the Soirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him. You know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.”
You won’t ever be able to believe what the bible says is true unless you first receive Christ as Lord and Savior. As long as you aren’t in relationship with Him you will never be able to accept the truth of scripture. Accepting Christ is accepting a relationship. All that religious stuff is man made rules that have nothing to do with God. If you ever want to see a pretty accurate depiction of Jesus, you can download the free app called “The Chosen.” It’s a made for TV series about the life and ministry of Christ. They are only up to Season 2 ep. 5 which is airing tonight. It can be watched on any device and even though your TV (although Idk how that works). This isn’t a plug for the show. It’s merely a suggestion for you to learn a bit without the pressure of stepping into a church which can be intimidating. God wishes all of us to be in a relationship with him. A friendship that is deeper than any you will ever encounter. It is a love greater than any ever recorded in the history of mankind. It is forgiveness of sins, washed completely clean and never to be remembered by Him again. Even if you bring it up! The Chosen is actually in reference to the children of Israel and the fascinating part of the program is that a Messianic Rabbi (a completed Jew) is a consultant for the show and the deeper insight he brings about the Old and New Testament is fascinating. Sorry I got carried away but since watching this and listening to some of the messages Rabbi Jason shares of TH-cam I have been feeling like church has been cheating me out of so much! God bless and I hope you become a seeker!
@@thehemulen8478 No the Hily Spirit if God says it’s true and since all scripture is God inspired we know it’s true because God is not a man that he should lie (Num 23:19) and since He is God He doesn’t change like man does (Mal. 3:6) and there are ither things it is impossible for Him to do. To be honest there isn’t much anyone can say if you yourself aren’t interested. I, or anyone else, can talk to you until we are blue in the face. Instead of wasting your time going back and forth, just for the heck of it…call it research, say you are determined to prove the bible is a lie, but pick one up and read the book of John. It’s the 4th gospel. Select an easy to understand translation like The Living Bible. You never know, you just might be right. If you read for yourself you can say without a doubt that God is a liar.
@@thehemulen8478 really? Where?
@@thehemulen8478 I don’t know the exact date. I remember being little and going to Vacation Bible School” and hearing about Jesus and learning the books of the bible. But I never truly understood what it was all about. I was away from the church for many years but I just always felt inside me, maybe in my heart, that something was missing. Any woman can tell you it’s not unusual to want to go shopping and someone asks her what she’s looking for and she will say “I don’t know but I will know it when I see it.” I guess it sounds crazy but it’s true. When I got married my husband wasn’t a Christian but his mom was and she would watch Televangelists through the week. It was kind of hard to escape hearing the things being said without actually leaving the house. But I knew what I was hearing was true. Even if I didn’t want to admit it. It still took me a long time to stop running but it was as scripture says “you will know the truth…” (John 8:32). You can hear someone saying something and you know they are lying. You can also hear someone say something and know they are speaking the truth. It wasn’t until about 1980 that I finally quit running. But again, every person has to decide for himself. We don’t want to believe God or His Son because we love our sin. If we believe in His Son, if we believe that what he says is true we have to give that up. It’s a crossroads we all come to. But even God will not force you to believe in Him.
@@thehemulen8478 as far as owning slaves goes, if you are talking about slaves in America yes that was and is a sin and people who “owned” them and still claimed to love God were hypocrites. It is why there were so many fighting against it. Same with beating them. Polygamy is also a sin. Those who believe it’s ok are living by man made rules snd laws. When you bring man’s decisions into the mix you are always going to end up with a mess. Everything you have listed is because man has decided this is how it’s going to be done. The statement that “all men are created equal,” is actually scripture but all if God’s guidelines have been corrupted. It stems from the garden when satan tempted Eve. From there on out, everything you see that is wrong in this world is because man has removed God from everything. As far as homosexuals I will not comment on that but suffice it to say that God does not tolerate sin. There are very specific guidelines for interpersonal relationships. If we choose to ignore them there are consequences. As far as beating people, shooting them or any other extreme reactions to a difference of opinion, they too are a sin. We are called to live in peace. There is certainly nothing wrong with disagreeing but beating someone up because they don’t agree with the way you think is inexcusable. If people would act in love and stop pointing their fingers and calling people names there might be a little less “them vs. us.”
IT IS FINISHED
i knew that too
but as a roman catholic
never was that explained
pray the rosary is advised more
being "born again" meant
changing religion
Cradle Catholics :
It is true... if you are Catholic you are in the rituals of man ..took me years to get rid of every religious bone in my body .. and it was not done by me .. the WORD crucified me when I finally completely heartbroken I spoke to God directly and said show me in the WORD... shortly after I was literally instructed to confess aloud to a friend by name . It was the beginning of the end ..if someone tells you it happens over night they are deceiving you .. wisdom comes when we are ready.
He speaks to us in our own "tongue" . When you are ready you will be abnle to hear other people hearts. Make no mistake .. if you are not being challenged you are being controlled.
