Thank you for inviting Rosaria and Christopher. There are a LOT of parents and grandparents that want to be faithful to Christ and love our prodigals.
So true. Praying for all of our prodigals 🙏🏽
Great advice this material is important.
I LOVE the clarity this provides regarding these difficult subjects and what Scripture actually SAYS about it! This video was wonderful.
Thank you Jesus, for raising up the very best people to speak on any given matter. Thank you for saving us and opening our eyes to your truth.
I love the conviction and urgency that Mrs. Butterfield speaks with! Praise the LORD 🙏🏾♥️
We must be willing to speak TRUTH to anyone that has believed the lies of satan!
Which church are true according to the Bible in this world? Because many churches are not true according to this scriptures, Matthew 7:21-23,Roman's 10;1-3,2Corintians 11:12-15,2thimoty 4:3-4,2Peter 2:1-3,and what is Christmas, Goodfriday and Easter according to the Bible??
I think Rosaria's "plan" for her next ten years is absolutely the truth for every Christian. Be faithful in the role and place we are to build His church.
So needed to hear this. As a parent of a daughter who has gone astray in this ideology, it is so painful. But God 🙏🏽
"But God"... is always key...
Thank you for having Rosario and Christopher. Every time I listen to them, I learn and grow as a Christian, and feel better equipped when facing these challenges. I'm encouraged by their love and devotion for Christ, their immovable stance for the truth, and their deep desire for people to know Christ. God bless you all.
Thank you for your clarity and forthrightness! Thank you for making the road to life through repentance and the power of our Creator so clear that anyone can grasp this truth and freedom!!
Wonderful content.
Thank you, Ligonier, for having this panel discussion with Rosaria Butterfield and Christopher Yuan. All three of you together present clear, helpful Biblical truth in age of confusion for the world and much of the church.
Goodness Christopher, you look like your Dad!!
Excellent conversation, you 3, thank you!
Thank you! I was both blessed and edified.
I just finished reading Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age. It was excellent.
I love Christopher and Rosaria. Such wisdom and logic, all from God's holy word.
be nice if you spoke in layman's language. When you say as an opening remark "...taking an existential reality of sexuality and turning it into an ontological reality" you leave many listeners stranded at the starters block,. I for one haven't got a clue what it means.
Gently spoken and I agree with request for layman’s terms. Thank you for considering the feedback
I hear you!😂
I asked AI to explain it. Here's what it said:
"Rosaria Butterfield is highlighting a shift in how sexuality is perceived. Originally, sexuality might have been seen primarily as a part of human experience (existential). However, in modern contexts, it is increasingly being viewed as a fundamental aspect of a person's identity (ontological).
In simpler terms, she is saying that there is a trend of moving from seeing sexuality as something we do or experience (part of our existence) to seeing it as something that defines who we are at the deepest level (part of our essence or being)."
thank you. that's helpful.
I think their heart is an invitation to a deeper, and more thorough devotion to understanding patterns of thought - which in turn, bolsters our Christian worldview :)
how you are vs who you are - from Yuan's book Holy Sexuality.
Amen. Thanking God for bringing everything into light. Thanking the Lord for your teaching. Heaven Rules.
PTL ❤❤❤
Many important statements, including some practical ones, eg: look at the influences; help your college bound or moving house offspring to find a biblically sound local church.👏🏽👏🏽
United Methodist Church, are you listening to this?
My husband and I are on opposite sides. He is for compassion and I am for truth. It is tough to work through that as we parent our 16 and 18 yr olds. We have gone through the Holy Sexuality video series with our teens. Thank you Rosario and Christopher for the clarity. Appreciate you both!
You can have truth AND compassion. Look at Jesus
Sometimes "Compassion requires Truth, just as often Love requires discipline.
Our identity is in Christ…..I wish they had said that.
if singleness being preferable to marriage is a misreading of 1 Cor, I'd like to know why
Amen❤
Amen
They let her cook, and she cooked!
Finally Christian’s that aren’t afraid to talk about sex and sin. Now let’s teach our kids about their bodies and Gods covenant. I wrote a book for children and it’s free online. It’s called Hannah avalyn and Emilia Jane and things that are hard to explain. A very funny book about serious stuff.
Fantastic 😮
Amen the love for truth speak the harsh emotional gut wretching truth:) 😔
At about 27:10, Rosaria says the crisis in the Reformed tradition 10 years ago was over justification. I am assuming she is talking about the New Perspective on Paul and N.T. Wright. On that score, N.T. Wright got some things wrong, but got some other things right. Looks like we've got a similar situation here in 2024 on the LGBTQ situation with the criticisms against Preston Sprinkle.
My prayer is, may our living triune GOD have mercies to LGBTQ communities.
He will Romans 11v32-36
And convict them
May the lgbtq people repent of their sin, then God will be faithful to forgive.
Gods not burger king. The lgbtq community is a behemoth of Sodom and Gomorrah like sin.
I commented elsewhere on Butterfield's false equation of egalitarianism and transgenderism. It also occurs to me that it's peculiar how she routinely teaches and instructs men, as in this seminar, even though Paul said, "I do not permit a woman to teach," to quote every complementarian's favorite text. Is she not erasing or blurring the gender binary by violating Paul's prohibition! My point is that everyone uses contextual exegesis to interpret these texts, not just the egalitarians like myself.
Christians, especially those in leadership positions, need to stop being afraid of offending those who hate us and our Lord by telling them the truth about sin and its consequences.
While it’s important to have Christian’s be a voice. It’s also important to realize that God has allowed some to teach and others are not to do so. If you’re still living within a gay lifestyle then you should not teach and prayers are useless as they’re hindered for a man. The Bible is clear on the matter. Mrs. Butterfield seems to be open with her position as she is now married, but what is Mr. Yuans position? And if you think it’s not proper to ask these questions, that’s ridiculous. They must be asked so we might know that intent of man and what kind of person intends to “teach” or postures themselves as an authority. The Church does not run on degrees and accolades of man but on the law of God, Jesus’ way and God as the ultimate authority.
Amen and Amen.
Pursue the unbeliever.
Well, authoritarianism is about the desire to exercise control that trumps freedom. 👆
That's not the greatest commandment The greatest commandment was to love your brother and sister as you love yourself Christopher.
Ce Mai lipseste unui om incercat de ratacirea asta, in afara de înțelegerea naturi umane și a voinței Li Dumnezeu
We are not physically born in the image of God.
We are elected, regenerated, and sanctified, and after our physical death, we are glorified. We are made in the image of God through regeneration, sanctification, and glorification.
We're all made in God's image.🙂
Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.🙂
Genesis 9:6 “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.🙂
"Don't be a heretic"
Sound words :P
I think R.C. Sproul would be appalled
And also not let the school teach about pornography
Lust is a sin! An evil spirit that enters a person and lives there!
It was a wonderful video/presentation but everyone, including the host and speakers in general, have to STOP using the word “gay”. This only goes to further the influence this movement has on you - gay is a legitimate word that has been perverted by culture. The correct description is “homosexual” - get over it and use the word!
This was both helpful and challenging. However 'you be godly parents and let God decide' begs the question decide what? I presume whether to save our children or pass over them. It is this aspect of Calvinism that whilst 'having a form of godliness denies the power thereof' and distorts the character of God.
God was in Christ reconciling the World to Himself and that includes our children (both the older and younger brother (or sister)). Grace and Peace Colossians 1v15-20
My only problem with Butterfield's position is that she routinely equates egalitarianism with an erasing of gender differences and, thus, as logically entailing transgenderism. As someone who belongs to an evangelical egalitarian church and denomination, for over a decade, that's at best uncharitable and at worst woefully ignorant. There is certainly a form of egalitarianism that is rooted in secular feminism, but that's not the form that is represented by denominations like ECO (Presbyterian), NALC (Lutheran), ACNA (Anglican), and the Free Methodists and Global Methodists. We believe in gender complementarity, but we believe that the role of pastor and minister is not exclusive to men. Thus, we see the ordained office as an area where both men and women can serve and thrive "as men" and "as women," with their unique gifts as such. I'm fully aware of 1 Tim 2 and the other proof texts, and I have no interest in debating exegesis in a TH-cam comments section. There's plenty of literature out there arguing for both sides, and I happen to find the egalitarian position the most convincing.
Yes yes yes. Thank you for putting into well expressed words my thoughts exactly.
You deleted the link I sent earlier. Just trying to give people a free resource as it should be. Jesus didn’t charge for His sacrifice did He?

Youth group service makes no sense. To me a church having youth church for kids as a separate service is a sign that's not a church for a serious christian even if you don't have kids.
Judgemental take! Compassion plz towards those who really struggle with same sex attraction. DON'T get set Free as you explain freedom. I feel saddened at what I'm hearing. Knowing several people who love God and CHOOSE to be celibate.
