Self-Control

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2016
- www.tfl.org || By Alistair Begg - No one is perfect. We resolve to “try harder,” yet our self-effort always falls short. In fact, our response to temptation exposes our heart’s desires: when we sin, it demonstrates that we love the sin more than we love God. In this message, Alistair Begg explores the need for self-control as we seek to live lives pleasing to our Lord. How can self-control become our “new normal”? As we depend on God’s grace, we are enabled to live within boundaries He has established, motivated not by rules but by our love for Him.

Please Lord help me to live a life pleasing to you. A life that is disciplined, self controlled in my mind, heart and actions. In Jesus name.
Amen!
Amen 🙏🙌❤️
Amen
Amen, for me also
This leaves a very Sweet/Sour taste. I was continually getting convicted and just wanted to kneel down and pray for forgiveness. But I love that my sins are being uncovered so that I can ask for forgiveness once again. Very Good message. God Bless
Amen 🙏🏻
If more preaching is done this way the church would be such a testimony to the world
Pastor begg in my mind is the most clear, precise and easy to understand . May God bless you.
John MacArthur is also excellent. Alistair is not only excellent at expounding on God’s Word, he is also sweet and funny at times, though he can also be fierce about matters when need be.
Thank you again Pastor Begg for being a faithful minister of the Gospel. I pray you never be tempted to stray from the Word of God to the cotton candy that is being taught in our churches today. I will continue to pray for you and pastors like you.
repeated this for 3x! This is so good, I have to take notes, Truly, a lot of gem in here
Without a doubt. Heard it a while back. Listened to it again yesterday. Alistair is extraordinarily gifted. Another is John MacArthur.
You must know that this has an attached transcript. Thank the Lord, I spent hours a day journaling sermons, of Dr. Charles Stanley daily for over a year. So thankful for Alistair to have provided this transcript. Some words are off due to his beautiful accent! I like to have it up while listening. Two senses working together allows me to remember more, and the odd word makes that possible too! LOL
I can listen to these messages all day long and this one is hitting home in a big way
@@elliotyudenfriend7481 indeed….MacArthur is one of the best I have heard. Between him and Alistair they are pretty much all I listen to outside of my home church…..excellent content
I believe I was led by God to hear His message in this video. Thanks for preaching the Word
Alistair has sifted out big gemstones from God’s Word for us to behold. My life in God is so enriched!
Thank you for bringing the gospel so clearly to us. Listening from the Netherlands i am grateful for being confronted with the Word of God. May He bring His word in action in our lives.
With all my life’s disappointments which led to a court issue and then losing my life’s work, I can see my heart needed to be cleaned out of self and Christ’s control in me to change direction. Man can never do what only God can. Painful, but imperative.
Three years have passed and I do hope you’re at a better place
Wish this message could be put on bullhorn and blasts across every speaker everywhere 😅
Ever praying for alistair begg I love listening to him and the word of mighty God.
11:21 Thank you Pastor Begg for this wonderful Word .Me myself and l..our 3 best friends.
I think it was C.S.Lewis?who said"l have more trouble with Mr Lewis than anyone else l know"
Help us Lord by your grace and Holy Spirit within us to be like Christ who said"l do always those things which please Him"John 8:29.
May God bless you Pastor Begg and us all who seek to grow in selflessness because we want to please Him for we are grateful and Love Him so much.
That is so helpful and I’d never really seen it till this sermon: self effort is not the same thing as self control! That’s where I’ve been going wrong. Thank you for your clear preaching. I also appreciate your Scottish bluntness, no messing about 😅
Alistair, you are a great preacher of God's word, every word, every sentence does not escape your scrutiny - And I love how you explain it all with that lovely Scottish accent - clear and distinct. I am so glad that I have 'found' you. God bless you every day of your life.
Good lesson. Pastor Begg has really been blessed by God to speak the word so plainly and understandably. A great blessing.
Thank you, Pastor Begg for consistently and faithfully preaching the truth of God's word.
Wonderful teaching straight from the Word of God. Thank you
I needed this message so badly - praise God for His faithfulness and mercy!
Desire, Opportunity, and Temptation. Very much true when you sin.
oh my.. such truth.. Thank you Jesus... your Spirit speaks plainly through this man...
He has taught me so much about Jesus, the scripture, etc. etc.!!!
I feel like that no one provokes me to self examination as well as Allistair Begg. That is a good thing.
I agree very much
I wish I could like this a million times ❤️
Rev Begg Bless you for teaching the truth. Very few men of God left like you
so rare and beautiful to hear God's word explained so well , God bless you and keep you pastor Begg
Amazing! Just heard the word from this man two days ago, and it was straight from the breath of God! Bless him and bless you. Happy Thanksgiving!!
This reading is ongoing that thru the grace and love of God denied desires or my heart we teach our children about the Fruit of the Spirit and Christ in us produces Good Behavior 🙏 Amen
Victory is inevitable!!! Hallelujah
Thanx Pastor Begg...... for your teaching.thanx for not trying to just tickle our ears..and truely teaching God's Holy WORD..I Love meat of the WORD..not being milked to death...
Excellent sermon! Straight from the scriptures....this is what a true Christian believes and should follow....even though some don’t like hearing this truth
The hardest part of my walk is that God loves us as a father loves his children. I grew up with no father and my dealings with him was him rejecting all of his 4 children in court and in his actions all my life. I'm 64 and this still is incomprehensible. (A love of a father). I go to counseling and its still hard, I believe the balance of a father and mother in a family is essential for children to grow up in a balanced life, with the appropriate boundaries, etc.

Dear sister,
You just spoke the story of my life. I am still living through that nightmare & reliving it again with my husband divorcing me. I am hanging on to our Lord for dear life & still praying for my marriage to be restored but my husband is not a believer & he is bitter against Jesus & me. I agree with you; all my life I could not conceive that a father could love his children. I still struggle with our Heavenly Father’s love for us. I believe as you do that children NEED both parents MARRIED under one roof. I too have gone to counseling for a long time but now I am just taking a breaking from it. I think pastors across the country should teach from the pulpits about husbands/wives roles & father
/mother roles in the family. I don’t believe people know this & we should.
Odd that those of us who were rejected by our daddy’s either throw all caution to the wind and embrace God as our Father and others of us who can’t trust that anyone could love us because we MUST be too unloveable for even our fathers didn’t love us. My father said he loved me, cried that he did but I only saw him 10-15 times in my life for moments only. My stepfather rejected me because I wasn’t his. I became a Christian and I know God loves me but I keep doubting - myself - maybe? Oh for that day when there’s nothing but Love and no doubting that I’m worth Loving. Thank You, Jesus for dying to show me Pure Love! One day...
I grew up with a dad that was either ignored me completely (he never wanted me even at birth) or yelled in my face (everything was always my fault). not once did I ever hear him say that he loved me and showed no love. my mother emotionally gaslighted me making me feel like I was never enough. I therefore grew in a life that was without God and actually any chance I got I'd persecute Christians. somehow God decided to call me out of the mess I put myself into and I'm starting to learn how to walk with him. everything I wanted my from physical mother and father, the love, care, trust, and relationship I have found in him. it's small steps at a time, but he's there and loves us all.
How are you doing now??
He tells Gods word with great understanding glory to God!
Amazing Grace. LORD JESUS this teaching has reached my heart. I pray that I may more like you and less like me. Thank you for this teaching.
My new discovery! Thank God for pastor like him. I love how he expound the word
that deepen my knowledge & strengthen my faith.
Yes, people do what they want to do.
Excellent, Love this message, good food
Wow! This so far is spot on and is scriptural.Anyone who thinks believers are weak minded,or afraid of death,or need a crutch,are so wrong this is boot camp until we reach glory,but praise the Lord,He uses all this to conform us to His dear Son. ROMANS 8:28
Hallelujah... I needed this to remind me that this is only boot camp and a temporary housing. Satan uses the "crutch" description to decieve even the elect so that those he maybe able to take with him to hell.
Greetings. Good message, Thanks be God and Paster Begg . God design us marvellous in our eyes. Amen.
Interesting when we live outside Gods plan.
Thank you so much for being a preacher of THE WORD.
Such a good message to us as children of the most high God. Bless you, brother Alistair.
A prisoner in Christ is freed from all else! Praise Him! 🕊
This was in my watch later list. I used to listen to you. After what you taught recently, I will have to pray for you, and I hope you change your mind. Ephesians 5:11.
Truth and wisdom… it soothes the soul in times such as these🥲
I have been aching to hear this sermon.
“Become by grace what you are”. This is so important for the believer to understand. Our identity in Christ is not some future thing, meant for the future. It is meant for now. Our citizenship in the Kingdom is now. Abundant life is doing the will of God and it is now. Being clothed in the righteousness of Christ is now. We need to understand our identity. We need to understand who God is and what He has already done through Christ. It is finished! Eternity has already started. Fellow Christian, eternal life has already started. Live by the Spirit and allow the renewal of your mind to match the new heart you have received through Christ.
If you stumble, remember He is faithful. He will never forsake you.
On Friday He showed us He was willing. On Sunday He showed us He is able! He lives! He lives in you, now!
I love his voice
Captain Crazy I too have a liking to Alistair’s British-English voice.....very calming as well for me.
@@cardiackidjones2848 He is Scottish.
Excellent Pastor!
For the grace of God has appeared.. Religion says become by self effort what your not. Christianity says become by grace what you are.
Eternal statement by AB
A straight talker .most challenging.
Worth watching more than once! So much wisdom
This is a powerful teaching so necessary for today's culture and spoken in the beauty of grace
Thank you for this valuable insight into the Truth…
God Bless you for this, pastor! I have been learning self control for the past year or so through the Lord. Hopefully, I can forgive those who have hurt me and my family in the past. Again, best of prayers to you and your own family.
Thank you! May the power of Christ rest upon you!
The WORD. MUSIC, to the ears..
praise the Lord, beautiful sermon as always. thank you.
Excellent, challenging, practical teaching.
2020 dec 13th..thank you for your teaching, and helping me heaps in my faith growth.

Thank you. I am so blessed by hearing the word of God from your pulpit as God enables you. May God bless & keep you & yours always.
Most encouraging.
Thank you, Pastor Begg!

This message should be a devotional I would love to have it and go back and read it along with scripture 🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌
God bless you
I love him!!!!!
In these times of unrest in the world I find great help in your sermons…imparting God’s word in such.a way that helps me in my daily life, like a rudder works to keep a ship on course
Thank you for sharing the message!
Please Lord Jesus wash me and deliver me from all Demonic oppression and error
Amen
Again have the floodgates of Heaven been widely opened, pouring the abundance of GRACE into the very hearts and minds of all who have up to this moment struggled with self-control, only to learn that the lovely Holy Spirit helps us to keep our focus on Jesus alone! „Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look into his wonderful face, and the things on earth will,grow strangely dim in THE LIGHT OF HIS GLORY AND PRAISE“.
Thank you, pastor Begg, for yet another pearl from God‘s inexhaustible treasury! 🇨🇭 ist
Not once does he show a craving for public approval saying 'Can I get an Amen!!'
downbntout That's not always the reason people say that. Don't compare one preaching style to another because you're not a fan of it.
Thats up to you and if your recieving gods word, and understanding of it? Because if you are you yourself dont need to hear him say this. Find a preacher you prefer then, but you cant judge no one.
Amen! Preach it downbntout!
Lol, that is not the reason why some preachers do that. You watch too many movies.
@@minuteman5369 perhaps there is god and then again, God...bless.
Wow! This is great!
His teaching is humbly based in the bible
A beautiful message. Thank you!
Excellent sermon Pastor Begg!
Truth is freedom!
Tim.McGraw is singing about his wife Faith Hill s love in "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it"
love this
I’ve listened to this sermon several times, why? Because I struggle with repetitive sin, I have victory for weeks and months at a time, but sputter from time to time, and guilt and condemnation eat me alive, Lord have mercy on me.....
Prayers for you to stay in the word of God, remember... Paul,, the apostle struggled against the flesh constantly. He ended up writing most of the New Testament. Never give up🙏🙏🙏🙏🦋
Your story is my story too. I'm not giving up though. One day we can be victorious.
Check out damon thompson ministries on beloved identity. His teaching is authentically transformative and takes western legalistic teaching head on. Although i love alistar, i dont find this message to be revelatory, its true but the message doesnt speak to the issue at hand. Our identity in christ is being attacked by self-effort sermons designed to point out our broken nature.
Excellent message!!
Prayer here when wanted loves but trust God in Jesus and by The Holy Spirit who guides and comforts us❤
Truth+
Muchas gracias 🫶
It is a continual battle everyday. Everyday!
Thank you.
Not many churches proclaiming the truth in love
so blessed by this!
Well put. Great exposition!
very clear . thanks
Thanks for sharing these!
Wonderful message
Amen
Of course I know him, he’s me!
Amen.
Thank you
THIS IS AMAZING. RELIGION SAYS BECOME BY SELF EFFORT WHAT YOU ARE NOT. CHRISTIANITY SAYS BECOME BY GRACE WHAT YOU ARE.
I need to apply self control in the area of not judging other Christians who overeat to obesity.
Oh brother, your comment made smile 😊! I think you should judge the brethren. Gluttony is a sin, judge them and speak to them in love.
If we would realize Grace is the Divine Power of God affecting our hearts to reflect in and through our lives. We are instructed in Phil. 2 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
So it's fearing and trembling in our conscience to be sensitive to God who is working in us. This ignites the life of Christ in us to exercise self control. The fear and trembling is being humble. God gives His grace to the humble.
