He is God, indeed! And we are so lucky that he is God and he loves us! I would not like to live in a universe where anyone, other than him, was the highest! I got confortable with his glory!
Ezekiel 36 is a great text connecting our spiritual condition and well being to his great and precious promises! It gives hope for our lives both now and eternally.
Romans 2:13, 1 Corinthians 6:9 The transformation from within has to take place. Study all scriptures that describe grace to learn about how grace fits in with obedience.
Buenas noches voy a la iglesia de maclein me gustaría que traduzcan la prédica del pastor para desde que lo escuché me encantó la manera en que prédica ... Espero poder ver todas las predicas ...bendiciones David Platt
What was that bit about menstruation? Speaking of dead bones rising, don’t forget to watch this final season of Game of Thrones! Speaking of GOT, in the Old Testament the story of Jepthah sacrificing his daughter to and as commanded by Yahweh for help in winning a battle, here’s a scene acting out the same thing. It’s hard to watch FYI. And this is the God of Christianity:(. m.th-cam.com/video/5rEWHmK2X0A/w-d-xo.html
Jepthah was not commanded by God to sacrifice his daughter! He made the foolish vow that he would sacrifice the first thing he saw to God upon Israel's victory, and he saw his daughter! His daughter was obviously not a suitable sacrifice! She was human being not a sacrificial animal proscribed by Mosaic Law. The law provided a way for Jepthah to ask forgiveness for his foolish vow and make a proper sacrifice. He choose to kill his daughter. Just because it doesn't mention God's response, doesn't mean it was acceptable to God. God's hatred of human sacrifice is found throughout the Old Testament.
@@richardwpage If you heard a voice in your head to kill your son, would you? God intervened with Issac, he could have for Jephthah. What's worse is that his daughter told him to follow through with her sacrifice, but only after she goes off into the mountains to bewail her virginity. Yahweh killed his son. He seemed to find that effective, no? th-cam.com/video/Pt66kbYmXXk/w-d-xo.html
Jesus The Son, who is part of the Trinity and thus God and co-equal to the Father, willingly gave up his life on the cross to redeem mankind from it's sin. A sacrifice that only Christ, the God/Man could accomplish. This is why He is called the Lamb of God. It was sinless and holy because it was the Creator willingly sacrificing Himself for His creation. A sacrifice of a normal human being would be a sinful and evil perversion of God's plan of redemption.As for Jephthah, yes, God could have intervened, as He could have in all the instances of sin shown in the Bible, but He chose not to according to His own will. This does not excuse Jephthah. He is still responsible for his own actions. He had the Law and should have obeyed it. And you are right, it is made even more sad by his daughter's time in the mountains. This was even more time for Jephthah to reconsider his actions and do the right thing!
Zacharofsky This Old Testament story is just like the many others that point to the sacrifice of Jesus. It’s very important to realize that interpreting the Old Testament without the New is not safe. (2 Corinthians 3:14-18)
So if it’s God, He, His who saves, then what’s with all the non belief? The vast majority of all those humans for the past 200,000 yrs and even the majority today died not “knowing” Him. Is He The Omni Competent God or The Omni Incompetent God? Does the more a story not make sense somehow make it more true? Sure sounds like it here by the audience’s response. If your father killed your brother to save you, would you consider that admirable? Add to that he’s saving you from the defect you inherited from him.
Man was originally born without sin. God doesn't tempt anyone himself either. However, once Adam sinned, sin reigned across all his offspring. (This is one of the reasons it's important that Jesus was born of a virgin). So although we weren't made to sin, yet because of Adam we all have a fallen nature. Though we likely would have been the same. That said, I feel like you are getting stuck in the bad news aspect of the gospel. Once we understand the bad news and ubderstand our sin, we should start to see with more clarity how unbelievably loving God must be towards us and His name in order to put our sin upon His Son (which Jesus willing chose to do). So yes, you sin just as I do. But can you accept that and even more, can you accept that God will accept you anyway if you go to Him in faith for forgiveness? "Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned- for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come. But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many. And the free gift is not like the result of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brought justification. For if, because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ. Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. 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 5:12-19
Michele Wood i’m pretty sure that it’s known that the population of Homo sapiens has never dropped below 10,000. We’re an evolved species, there never was a first human.
James Kuo I don’t know, maybe one we could not procreate with. ?? I’ve no idea if we’ve even experimented with fertilizing other primates today with our sperm/eggs. Ethically speaking, probably not good to do.
Fantastic sermon.
He is God, indeed! And we are so lucky that he is God and he loves us! I would not like to live in a universe where anyone, other than him, was the highest! I got confortable with his glory!
Thank you Lord for Mr Platt and this message God bless hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah
Make God's Name known in the world is not my own ,not self exaltation .
Ezekiel 36 is a great text connecting our spiritual condition and well being to his great and precious promises! It gives hope for our lives both now and eternally.
Praise God ! Praise God ! This young man gets it !!!
God bless you always and the Holy Spirit will lead you to the right words in Jesus Christ Name!

David killed it great conference
We also should rethink, at what point in time are we saved, according to the scriptures.
