I have been struggling with guilt for 30 years… until today. after my daily morning devotion, just out of curiosity I decide to watch John Newton story, “Amazing grace”. I know God have forgiven me of all my sins but I couldn’t not forgive myself for all theses years.. now I think I can forgive myself. Thanks and praises to God for His Forgiving, “Amazing Grace” thank you for making this possible for me.
1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch; like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. 2 ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed! 3 The Lord hath promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures. 4 When we’ve been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise Than when we first begun.

Thank you for posting this amazing video. I am 84 years old and a great grandfather, and a Catholic living in Singapore. The Amazing Grace is a popular hymn in our Church especially during a funeral Mass. I only wish the Free offer of the Book "Steps To Christ" by E. C. White, can be extended to Singapore. Thank you.
BS dude still got to live his life perfectly fine after transporting slaves then got old and decided to repent lmao fuk this song and fuk his easy route. Song needs to be put in the dirt or better yet non existent.
tonight I felt stressed and for some reason spontaneously started humming Amazing Grace which instantly calmed me down. This prompted me to learn more about the song and the songwriter. I didn’t expect such a compelling and inspiring story of his life. Thanks for sharing his story.
Thank you for this great documentary. John Newton and William Wilberforce’s story touch my heart , they are always inspire me to know that how merciful and loving of our God is
This has really opened my mind and my heart deeper than ever to the profundity of this hymn. 💖 Thank you so much for creating and posting this wonderful video presentation. ✨🏆✨
His only hope was forgiveness. This is what everyone needs. We are no better than any person we would consider ‘evil’ Everyone needs the grace of God’s forgiveness. I have been atheist and then agnostic. I once was blind, but now I see. Who are we to condemn others? We need to spread the good news but we cannot forget to recognise the bad news, otherwise, there is no need for good news.
I CANNOT BELIEVE THE catholic church actually banned the hymn Amazing Grace - and you had a comment from one elderly man who claimed he loved this hymn for years. Did he not know. It was crazily banned? 4:53
@@DarrenCarrie It’s not banned, it’s sometimes played at Catholic funerals, but with the lyrics tweaked. The lyrics are considered to not allign with Catholic doctrine and the song in general has a long-standing connection to Protestantism.
Why is it that documentaries such as this never shows that the enslaved Africans were predominantly under the age of 15? Children packed more easily than adults and we're less likely to rebel.
Powerful....grateful for this clarification...so needed. Cruel God is taught in churches here. How can we not serve Him with such love...these truths about God are amazing!
Indeed Mary, God is a God of love. All we need is a faith-driven comprehension of His love. without that, we only see Him as an evil God. :’( it takes faith. keep up your faith Mary! God bless you!
God is angry with evil. He HATES SIN! This is evidence of his goodness. If he was not mad with millions of rapists, murderers, blaspemers, thiefs, liars, and adulterers he would not be good! Out of his righteousness he hates sinners and gives them the death sentence. Out of his mercy he sent Jesus to save them from damnation.
Is this Ellen G. White the one who is associated with Seventh Day Adventist Church? I've heard of her and just wondering if she is the same one or another person who wrote the book your offering. Thanks and God Bless for the great video of John Newton. Linda from North Calif. USA

The story of Amazing Grace is told here in Ireland that John Newton on his ship and a saver storm forced Newton to take shelter in lough Swilly to carry out repairs, while staying here he found the inspiration for the hymn Amazing Grace..today its called Amazing Grace country..which you forgot to mention.
John newtons ship washed ashore on st.kitts after a storm he was a slaver trader turned preacher . He washed ashore at st.kitts at sandy point and that inspired him to write the song amazing grace because the slaves used to hum the rythm but he wrote the words to it . The slave didnt sing the song
Yes the slaves are the ancient Israelites and it’s very highly probable that they sang that song. Also blacks have 100% human DNA other races have part of neanderthal dna . Blk Ppl read the bible ,Your story is full in the bible. Thats why you are mistreated by all nations ,being mocked by your hair texture, style, physical structure ability ect, because everything about you look different yet you are unique and You forsook YAH your GOD and you are his chosen ones. Go read your bible and keep YAH’S commandments. Those who mistreat you will not go guiltless in YAH’S eye. HE loves you and cares for you. HE sees your poverty and pain , HE is waiting for you. So read the bible and keep the commandments. Remember the same people that despised you and mistreat you, are the same ones that hated Jesus. GOD loves you, you are unique and remember you are 100% human.
Grace is a wonderful gift. But it is a gift we must accept. The first step is to repent of your sins . Salvation made simple. Three easy steps to get saved. 1. Repentance. Realize you are a sinner on your way to Hell. Romans 3: 23 2. With repentant heart believe ON the Cross. Jesus took on your sins, Lived, died and resurrected for you. Romans 6: 23 3. Say it. Speak it. Sinner’s Prayer. Romans 10: 9 “Dear God, I know I’m a sinner. So I repent and believe Jesus is God, who died, buried and resurrected so His blood can wash away my sin. I’m trusting in that alone, not anything I do. But only what you did on the cross. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.” Once Saved Always Saved. John 3: 16-17
Actually John treated the slaves better then most slaves owners become he remember what it was like when he was a slave in Africa, the African slave owners starved their slaves half the time beaten them on daily bases sexually assaulted the slaves and made them sleep under the stars, John Newton made treated the slaves with respect he made sure they had daily food made sure they stayed healthy and fit and so on. And John Newton didn't own slaves he only worked on a slave ship.
Good program, but how can you fail to mention that Jesus Christ took our sins upon His own body on the tree. He took the punishment for our sin for us and when we repent, asking Him to forgive us, then we are forgiven and saved. I'm surprised that Jesus sacrificial death on the cross wasnt mentioned when Newton's conversion conversion
Amazing Grace - "God's love is not performance based". Well... I'm an atheist. And my self-respect IS performance based. Seems I hold my conduct to a higher bar than God does.
As an almost a minister, this would have been the FIRST story I would have shared, on my first day, with my new congregation. God Bless John.

It's that grace that is still on the black race he sold in America. Even those who are still suffering I know they will find grace.
I wish that this kind of material were in spanish
the book can be found at any ⁷th day Adventist church, including Spanish.
hope you find it. be blessed
Good info that the ten thousand years verse was not written by Newton. It sounds nice, but contradicts Revelations (I.e., the end is nigh)
if he was treated bad why would he treat somebody else bad
Thats would I say its so popular with the Scots Irish in America
The Scots Irish people of Ulster would've brought the song to America.
😥🙏
No matter how much you try to clean John up he is burning in hell today!
Why?
John Newton was one of the worse slave owners in the history of slavery.
John Newton wasn't a slave owner. He was a slave trader. A captain of a slave ship. He didn't own them.
Actually John treated the slaves better then most slaves owners become he remember what it was like when he was a slave in Africa, the African slave owners starved their slaves half the time beaten them on daily bases sexually assaulted the slaves and made them sleep under the stars, John Newton made treated the slaves with respect he made sure they had daily food made sure they stayed healthy and fit and so on. And John Newton didn't own slaves he only worked on a slave ship.
John Newton, the slave trader, wrote Amazing Grace. He had a few ghost writers.
The Slave trade has always existed through out human history. The only problem seems to be the African Slaves to Evolve, some have but few

Was explained.
He "discovered New Zealand?" New Zealand was there from creation and inhabited by the Aboriginies.
Amazing Grace - "God's love is not performance based".
Well...
I'm an atheist.
And my self-respect IS performance based.
Seems I hold my conduct to a higher bar than God does.
