I was just a teenager when I found pastor staley's ministry back in 2013. I remember his teaching "Identity crisis" really hit me hard because I was going through so much internal sin and lack of focus at that time. I was about 16 years old then, and now I'm 26 lol time sure flys. I never forgot about you brother Staley, even while you were in prison my heart and prayers went out to you and your family.
Jim! You were the very pastor that answered all my questions on what God was opening my eyes to. As I went on that journey, I met a lot of others that found Torah through your teachings. You are definitely chosen by God. I’ve never left. I was just waiting for you to get out and restart the ministry.
@@PassionForTruthVideo.... Shabbat Shalom (today is Yom Teruah / Sabbath).... just out of curiosity, are you, Pam.... a sister of Jim's, or a daughter ? I don't remember all his daughters names (I have trouble remembering my own, sometimes! lol - just kidding).... but "Pam" doesn't "ring a bell" for me, with regards to any of their names. I go back to PFT days in ST. Charles, beginning (for me) in 2012. I prayed for Jim & Family... prayed for Cheryl, that Yah would shield & protect her from any & all the "wolves" out there on a nearly daily basis, the whole time he was "away". Thank you and I bless you and yours with Num.6:24 - 26. Shalom, Shalom.
You changed my entire family in such a great way that I can NEVER thank you enough. We did church with my husbands family every Saturday. They were in Torah and I was not. I went through the motions because I was married and felt compelled to do so. My husband and I were not on the same page. My husband is an AMAZING Yah fearing man, but he is not a teacher. He was raised in Torah and had no clue why i didn’t understand by just reading the Bible. Which is what we did every Shabbat. We read the Bible and sang some songs. Then had a meal after. I had 3 small children and it was every thing I could do to get them ready and get them to church. I was bitter. My husbands parents were helpful, but his Aunt that never had children was so nasty to me that it gave me an excuse to not go every chance I got. Long story not so short, I have never shared this with anyone. One day during the feast of Tabernacles we were in a hotel and my husband suggested we watch one of your videos instead of reading. My children were preteens and were NOT interested in reading. So we did. You had a menorah behind you in the video. I don’t remember which video it was, but when it was over all 3 of my teens said “man that was good, I never understood but now I do’” my husband was beaming with pride and do happy to have his family interested in Torah. His aunt waited until we all left and said “I will never be associated with anything Jewish, and if that’s what you want to do then we can’t do church together.” My husband was not crushed by her (because she has always been that way) but his brother and Mom did not stand up for him either. We are all friendly and work together and love and respect each other. We are farmers and have intertwined businesses, but we do church at our house and keep our own Sabbaths. I feel like my husband and I have really connected ever since this happened, because I kicked it into high gear and started educating myself and watching every video you had out. I was so sad to see what happened to you, but just know that everything you have done was NOT FOR NOTHING. THANK YOU ❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I am praying for you and your family.
loved you before prison. loved you during prison. love you now. i always knew there was more to the story. there always is more to the story. halleluyah.
I appreciated this. Thanks for taking the time to repent publicly ask for forgiveness and allow all of us to move on together. We desperately need examples of leaders doing this within the body so thank you so much.
I'm not so sure we are suppost to just move on maybe we need to change the system that intemidated Jim out of his day in court noone should plead guilty out of fear of 20 years if they lose VS. 7 years if they never go to a trial it should have been 7 years if that's what the plea would have been then that's what he should have gotten even if he lost in trial the injustice is still happening we can't let this go we must fix it because every person is someone's Jim staley who deserves a fair trail without fear of a larger sentence if they exercise that right
Amen pastor Staley. Thank you for being an example we all make mistakes whats important is we learn from our mistakes us as brothers and sisters must also learn to forgive. We shouldnt allow OUR pride to get in the way and think were better, treating others the way we want to be treated and remember what standards we judge people with we also will be judged with. Thank you for allowing God to speak through you and use you. Your teachings have truly been a blessing and helped my spiritual walk.
Proud of you Jim for being sensitive to Ruach’s leading and timing on this and I pray the Father completes many beautiful works of reconciliation through your humility. I pray that He fills you up with more love and wisdom as you lean into the direction the Father is guiding your ministry. Blessings from TN.
Thank you very much Jim. I was praying for this !! Your experience is very important and it'll be a valuable help for us when we'll be under persecution because the Name of Jesus Christ. Teach us. We're nobody, we're nothing to judge you. All of we could be in the same situation one day. Thank you very much and God bless you and your family.
Jim , YaHoVaH I feel used you to help show me what real freedom looks like and stemming from that came many other things ! When this happened I knew from the beginning that this journey was for you and was none of my business and that came without judgement , on this end of it I can relate with feeling judged and mocked by the ones I loved the most simply because I learned to decipher and hear the Truth , even costing me my marriage and friendships , I am so thankful that I have eyes to see and ears to hear His Truth and you are and will always be apart of that and I thank you
You are the best, pastor Jim! We are from Uzbekistan and your message about: Christ (husband) has died and we (wife) got freedom from punishment. Thank you very much. Your message changed live of our church. God bless you. We love you. Dmitriy Li, Samarkand.
"My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth." Pastor, Jim! You are the best teacher from God which I even heard. For us you are the best anytime, anyway. You are older, smartest brother for us in Christ. You opened for us correct understanding of Rabbi Paul's letters. Thank you very much
my family has been watching you since i was around 12, i remember my family hoping for your church to go on past you and how upset we were when they sold the building. im 23 now and still watching
I started watching you when I first came into the messianic movement. I was richly blessed by your sermons. Even though I kind of thought you were so sure of yourself and perhaps prideful, I never stopped watching and growing in the Messiah and the depth you brought to each message. In the years I passed on lots of your messages, especially Truth or Tradition. I was sad and dissappointed when I heard about you going to prison, but I never lost hope for you. All I thought was when Jim Staley comes out of prison, he will be even more refined and blessed by the Father. I loved listening to your messages then, and I love listening to them now. We all deserve to go to prison. We have all fallen short from the grace of Yahuah. Your messages are going to mean even more now because you will share messages of scripture that you will be able to relate to and share with your hearers. It's all good, Well done faithful and good servant. Yahuah brought you into this world, carried you through and will bring you home. He has done it all, what a Wonderful Savior we have. Thank you for sharing your honesty, even this will be used for his Kingdom and glory. Blessed be HIs Name. Yahusha.
The grace of God and the law of God are powerful. While listening to you, God spoke to me that I have done wrong and should confess to the people I've hurt, too. I hadn't thought about it until now. Thank you.
I knew your ministry before that happened and I am still here! I know that deeply in your heart you would have never tried to hurt anyone. Shabbat shalom from Panama! 🇵🇦
I believe there were people in prison who's life is changed by God working through you. There are more people who's hearts were touched and lives changed. God uses us sometimes, we never know the impact, but God worked a miracle through us. And sometimes in order to be a better servant God remolds and trims our dead and infected inner man so we can move to the next level He has prepared for us. Its not pleasant sometimes but the rewards are undeniable. Bless you and thank you.
Shabbat Shalom. I have such great respect for you and this apology message. Your heart is so humble and יהרה sees that as beautiful! Thank you for this hard message, handled with such grace and humility. You are loved brother. Forgiven and now forgotten. May יהרה continue to bless you faithfully in the matchless Name of Yeshua haMashiach יהרשע / the Anointed One. Ahmein and Ahmein.
Thanks you Pastor Jim, you would not escape prisson for standing for the truth of God's word. I watch your debate with Chris and it increased my faith. As i watched that debate, God did am amzing through a call from two of my clients. May God continue using yoi to spread the truth. I'm a second generation Sabbath keeper through the Seventh Day Adventist movement and i give no attention to people pushing the doctrines of men, instead i pray for Jesus to work in them.
Baruch HaShem pastor! I found Torah and fell in love with your teachings especially truth or tradition, to eat or not to eat, Identity crisis, End of the age part 1-6, What happens after death, How to have your prayers heard and so much more. tell you what, they all built my spiritual life up to this day! when I learnt that you were in prison I cried because I was convinced in my heart that you were innocent. one of my good friends who brought me to Messianic movement mentioned that he thought you were probably told by your lawyer to plea guilty and you just confirmed this on this video. I prayed for you and your beautiful wife and children. I cried tears of joy when you got released and reunited with your family. You're forgiven. Bashem Yeshua!
Bless you and thank you for your humble spirit. Your teachings have blessed me and grown me beyond words over the years. I'm so grateful to you and for you. Praying for every blessing on you and your precious wife and family, always. Thank you. 🙌🙏 Leonie XX
I praise Yahweh for Jim Staley and his entire family. Yahweh used you powerfully from the start of PFT and I believe will continue to do so. HalleluYah! Thank you, Jim for being obedient to the Father. Shalom!
If the other pastors would do as you have done, the church would be flourishing instead of dying. Bless you my brother, I have always grown in knowledge of your teachings. I didn't never stop learning from your teachings due to your situation, that's between you and Elohim YAHAWAH! May HE continues to bless you and your family ❤ I have no reason to listen any further, but thank you for your transparency ❤
Praising for Abba for this..I learned a lot from your teachings and when u were indicted, the Father just protected me from thinking negative about u..i just prayed..i cried realizing ur family won't have u but at d back of my mind i know you wud be able to get out..Thank you and blessed is YHVH
It will now be part of character and function through the mercy and grace of Yeshua to walk in humility regarding the brethren to build them up, each serving in their unique way as precious stones in the House of Adonai.💝👑 The clock seems to be stuck on 2:22. Shalom
Thank you Jim for being so honest and having the guts to do this. It is a very good example for all of us.Thank you for all your wonderful teachings always! From South Africa. Lots of love ❤
I have no skin in the game, but you have always been open about this. I watched the video a few years ago when you apologized to the church. I thought you explained it well and were forthright. Because of that, I never had an issue with you as a teacher. It was just an oversight/mistake that was specific to Missouri (where other states allowed it). I prayed for you while you were incarcerated. I also had my first seder with your family as I was new to Torah and watched online to understand how to celebrate Passover for the first time. Now you're in good company with other people in scripture who were jailed or made mistakes but kept faith and blossomed going forward. So continue to press forward toward the prize and keep the faith. Blessings to you and your wonderful family.
Jim, jubilee and restoration are at work because of your obedience. We met in Portland at Red lion Inn at Love for Israel conference and that was the year you shared about Muhammad Ali's nephew testimony. I also have never forgotten our face to face conversation with you and my wife at the time. ( I also have always wished for you and the messianic pastor up in Tacoma Washington be the united and do teachings/ministry together) I appreciate your courage to be honest, transparent, and humble enough to face the consequences and whatever reactions from those you deeply hurt and disappointed and to deeply forgive all who wronged you in that process. In 2 days I graduate from an addiction program and one day I too will have to go face to face to all the ones I hurt, used and abused for selfish gain and I thank God and you for showing me that example. To God be the Glory (TGBTG)
Amen my friend! I pray the father will bless you for every step that you take to help make his image shine just a little bit brighter in his kingdom. - Jim.
This testimony is incredible...I remember watching Identity Crisis and Truth or Tradition and it changed my life forever. I remember the division it caused in my family...and how difficult it was to watch you go to prison, how confusing it was. I was lost for many years after that...but the Father broke me, much like he broke you. Now I am in a situation where I desperately need the ability to be humble and own my own impact and take responsibility for the way that I have hurt people close to me. Even though there is incredible injustice in this situation, I also deserve it. But Yahweh has been faithful. I feel that he is restoring what was lost and broken, starting from all those years ago in 2014. Now I am not afraid to speak out what I believe...I am standing on the rock in the midst of the storm. Your testimony has been an integral part of that for me. Thank you for remaining faithful, and for going through the terrible pain of the refiner's fire to come out on the other side with a broken and contrite heart.
what a testimony Sir🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼may the Good Lord bless you and continue to strengthen you and your family, thanks for sharing your experience in this desert, our GOD Yeshúa comfort you and give you the Peace you need ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Jim!! I'm a nineteen year old that turns twenty in a month, I'm so glad you're talking about this! I've heard mentions of your time in jail before and always wondered what happened. The truth will set you free my guy!! This has only semented my thoughts on your character. You are setting the GREATEST example for transparency and personal responsibility. As someone who will hopefully be a judge one day, this is important to me. Law is so difficult and the justice system is so flawed. But above the system there is God. And that is my comfort. I'm glad you've come onto the other side.
oh I'm so excited to hear what happened. More about the journey from prison. I have been waiting to be able to trust you again like before but not knowing has not made it hard.
I only subscribed today and this is where all who follow Him need to be…including myself. Glad I subscribed. I long to completely follow Him, our Creator, our God!
Indeed this world can throw some mind-blowing curve balls (trials) at us. The world and satan might've meant these trials for evil, but our Father YAH means it for GOOD. I've been going through a lot with my job, and my life in general, especially since i've been really trying to make a true TORAH-based repentance daily. This live you did really cut to my heart. Hearing your story brought me to tears, and I actually felt like our Father YAH was speaking directly to me through your experience brother. HALLELUYAH! because what the world and the devil might've meant for evil, our Father YAH means it for GOOD.
Thank you for sharing your heart. We followed your ministry closely from our group. It was difficult. It was maybe halfway through your incarceration and a few years when the news came out. God asked me to pray for you. 🙏 I even wrote a couple times because my own son was in the same prison you were at. There was some hurt there because of the impact on our group in Nebraska. 😢 Again, thank you so much.
We learned a lot from your presentations years ago. Then I noticed my wife listening to your Identity Crisis presentation yesterday, and that prompted me to listen to your Two Witnesses presentation last night. I learned so much, so much made sense, and I don’t feel so alone on my journey as a result. Thank you. I don’t refer to your material as teachings because you present, and God teaches. Your journey reminds us of who God really is, and brings to mind Psalm 51:17, Isaiah 57:15 and 66:2
Baruch HaShem for this vídeo pastor! For us who doesn’t know you personally, maybe is easy to understand, but I hope that all the people who personally was hurt one day, can forgive you and understand that all situation that we pass through in our life, there is a meaning, and to see you on internet recognizing your mistakes, it’s a sign of humble. Adonai bless you pastor🙌🏻
I’m new to your channel and teaching, but have learned a whole lot from your teachings, has awaken my spirt for more in a new light. Thank you for sharing truth and I look forward to learn from you and also see you continue to grow the Kingdom. Thanks you and God bless
Jim, it takes courage to make teshuva so publicly. Sending you and your family so much love; we are thankful for all the years of truth and teaching you have shared!
Did anyone else notice the clock was not functioning. Time stood still for Jim to make his apology to the public. The only forgiveness we NEED is from our Heavenly Father and he freely forgives us through the sacrifice of Yahushua our Messiah from Nazareth. So whether other people forgive Jim or not, in all of eternity ... it does not matter. The only forgiveness that matters has already been given. Rest in peace Jim ... rest in the peace that passeth all understanding that only our Heavenly Father can give us. Rest and cease from seeking other's approval, other's forgiveness, etc. Seek only our Father's approval and forgiveness as He is the only one that truly can forgive.
Our Heavenly FATHER Revives the Spirit of the Lowly! And so you are ....IN THE ORDER OF DAVID!! A BROKEN AND A CONTRITE HEART, O GOD, THOU WILL NOT DESPISE!! Thankyou Brother!! BE BLESSED ALWAYS!!! BASHEM YAHSHUA HA MASHIACH!! SO BE IT!!❤
My heart broke when you were imprisoned. I was completely stunted in my walk. It took me quite a while to come back to myself, it was as if you died. But I never stopped praying for you and your family and O never doubted who you were and still are today. Bless Yeshua for you and Cheryl and your children and I wish you all the very best that Yehovah has for You.
@@PassionForTruthVideo you are loved and not for one moment was I upset with you. I just missed your teaching and worshipping with Cheryl. Yeshua continue to bless you and your family!
Thank you Jim for being obedient to The Lord. I pray all of us will receive this message and walk in complete healing through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. You and all of us have been given a gift from The Lord that will change lives for Christ but we must always keep before us The Word which says unless The Lord builds the house those that labor will labor in vain.
Brother, my pride was toxic. I ask Him constantly to destroy my pride and I’ve lived in tears the last few months. I tried sharing some of your teachings (which I went Berean on and tested to scripture and could find no wrong), but people refused to watch because they judged you based on your worldly sin(instead of looking in the mirror and seeing their own. They are somehow better?!) I’m a piece of broken garbage and I’ll take anyone who understands scripture over myself. Thank you for your efforts Jim. Thank you for showing me The Word
Amen! We hope this apology may soften their hearts to these friends of yours. May they see a truly repented man in Jim and have the heart to forgive him as he asks for Yah and those he transgressed to forgive him as well.
@@PassionForTruthVideo.... I'm sincerely praying that Jim's confession isn't abused by those who are un-redeemed, and try to re-open a "can of worms"!!
Praise God! Lord knows had to go through,Lord shown after Temp vision loss Thank God for the Holy Spirit! For ME to SEE✝️ Both literally and physically Lord knows my physical vision missing was my spiritual vision missing, as a Christian! Praise God Both Restored in 20/20 🔥 Lord knows Repentance,Prayers and Fasting🙏had brokenness, crying for months how had hurt ,Lord Jesus Heavenly Father and Holy Spirit 😢 Lord knows For change for outside circumstances comes ONLY by God's Word ✝️ 3John2 from the inside to outside...For situation to change Based on our internal intake of what we think and believe is why imperative Word ✝️ Lord knows exceptional website to understand all this is Bible- knowledge...A MUST if Seeking... Many Articles on Spiritual warfare, demons, Holy spirit-filled baptism 🔥 If in need of a healing and everyday Daily should be listening to scriptures And Healing scriptures by John Hagee and Dodie Osteen Also ,A Meal that heals by Perry Stone Praying for my husband Richard 🙏 a Christian,but not understanding my brokenness led me to SEE!

Let them judge Jim still has work todo and coukd only do it with what he lived thru we must change the plead deals Noone should be taking pleads out of fear. The plead should be what they get even if they lost in court everyone is suppost to get a fair trial not scared from taking it
Many have to meet our Maker. I have had my come to Yeshua moments and humiliation can teach us powerful lessons no others or no one can teach us. When I became like David and except my wrong, Our Heavenly Father said he was man after His Own heart. This is who we want to become, Thank you for sharing..
Praise the Lord for the new Pastor Jim 👍 and may all this passion burn and keep making you so much stronger; you are showing what strength is really about; and may your 2.0 mission keep shinning in Spirit and Truth, may the Lord rescue everyone of us! So that the Spirit will always abound in our truth ✌️👍
I’m knew to your channel and I’m so grateful for the many teachings that I’ve watched. Wow you teach the truth and it’s so rare to find. And this! Yes this is absolutely necessary because No one takes ownership anymore and WE ALL NEED TO BE ACCOUNTABLE. Thank you for your humility and sharing and repentance to all.
Thank you for your words!! It's a privilege to serve you with this ministry. We pray that the Father continues His work in you until completion! Shabbat Shalom
Barakah my brother! You are a great Pastor and your humble heart is a great example of how we need to take responsibility for our actions. Thanks for this clarification, but it never kept me from listening to your sermons! It's so obvious you are a chosen one! Barakah Yahushua!!💙🙏
Bless your heart Pastor Jim! Thank you so much for being raw, truthful & repentant. It is profound what YHWH has done & is still doing. Bless you, Cheryl & your family! ❤️
Jim , Back in 2015 I started studying end time prophecies and I come to know you since then . I am so blessed by your deep understanding and sharing of those end time knowledge then I started googling who you are since I am residing in Ethiopia and come across a story of what you have explained and was confused that I don’t expect such accusations. Anyways I am happy that you shared us your side of story and apologize those who are concerned . Bless you and want you to teach more .
You are MOST certainly forgiven my brother in Christ............Remember Jim what does the LORD require of us......To do Justly, Love Mercy and to walk humbly before our GOD
I have never left your side. I knew there was purpose in you going to jail. I've never felt so dedicated to any teacher more than you. The Father used you to reach me in ways only Yah could facilitate. Thank you for your rawness. For continuing and for not giving up.
Jim Staley, we understand you are mortal being. Jesus came not to condemn but to save. Thank you for being strong. I know God has forgiven you We support you from Papua New Guinea.
Forgive as we have been forgiven. Thank you for this confession and admitting your wrong doing. The lack there of had me struggling to accept your teachings. I am now happily joining in your studies. Thank the Father for nudging you to do this and take another step at uniting the body! HalleluYah!
Thanks for this video, Jim. I am a Seventh Day Adventist who loves your videos and I had unsubscribed to your channel when this happened, but recently I wanted to share the Truth or Tradition video with family members and I found this video, praise God! He knows what we need, and when He knows we love Him, he will humble us, ONLY, for our own benefit. We love you, Jim. God be with you today and always!
I’m a Seventh Day Adventist who has started to celebrate Yom Kipur and now Sukot. I used the same Bible and logic around Sabbath. May the Lord guide you to the Truth we’re all looking for
Strong is he who admits his mistake, asks for forgiveness, and learns from it. May the peace and comforting of the Holy Spirit rest upon you, brother.
Thank you ... and when we fully forgive - we can grow! -
Amen 🙏 ❤
🙏🏼 for you on this subject! That YHWH uses your experience to help someone else! For what the enemy meant for evil YHWH returns it for His glory!
Absolutely!!!
and that is exactly what we are to do with our 'experiences in life' ... help others as they go through similar experiences.

You are the best, pastor Jim! We are from Uzbekistan and your message about: Christ (husband) has died and we (wife) got freedom from punishment. Thank you very much. Your message changed live of our church. God bless you. We love you.

"My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth."
Pastor, Jim! You are the best teacher from God which I even heard. For us you are the best anytime, anyway. You are older, smartest brother for us in Christ.
You opened for us correct understanding of Rabbi Paul's letters. Thank you very much
We love you brother. Yaweh was with you through it all!
Thank You so much for sharing. You are already blessing others through this message. YAH continues to bless you and your family.
Nothing but respect for you Jim. God bless you and thank you for your messages.
my family has been watching you since i was around 12, i remember my family hoping for your church to go on past you and how upset we were when they sold the building. im 23 now and still watching
Pride gets us all Jim, Shalom
What a beautiful heart you have! God bless you and your family every day of your life!
I started watching you when I first came into the messianic movement. I was richly blessed by your sermons. Even though I kind of thought you were so sure of yourself and perhaps prideful, I never stopped watching and growing in the Messiah and the depth you brought to each message. In the years I passed on lots of your messages, especially Truth or Tradition. I was sad and dissappointed when I heard about you going to prison, but I never lost hope for you. All I thought was when Jim Staley comes out of prison, he will be even more refined and blessed by the Father. I loved listening to your messages then, and I love listening to them now. We all deserve to go to prison. We have all fallen short from the grace of Yahuah. Your messages are going to mean even more now because you will share messages of scripture that you will be able to relate to and share with your hearers. It's all good, Well done faithful and good servant. Yahuah brought you into this world, carried you through and will bring you home. He has done it all, what a Wonderful Savior we have. Thank you for sharing your honesty, even this will be used for his Kingdom and glory. Blessed be HIs Name. Yahusha.
Yom Kippur is approaching. Thank you, pastor.
Gracias por su testimonio. Es para la gloria de Dios y para edificar a otros. Dios lo bendiga y a su familia.
The grace of God and the law of God are powerful. While listening to you, God spoke to me that I have done wrong and should confess to the people I've hurt, too. I hadn't thought about it until now. Thank you.
I knew your ministry before that happened and I am still here!
I know that deeply in your heart you would have never tried to hurt anyone.
Shabbat shalom from Panama! 🇵🇦
Shabbat shalom!
I believe there were people in prison who's life is changed by God working through you. There are more people who's hearts were touched and lives changed. God uses us sometimes, we never know the impact, but God worked a miracle through us. And sometimes in order to be a better servant God remolds and trims our dead and infected inner man so we can move to the next level He has prepared for us. Its not pleasant sometimes but the rewards are undeniable. Bless you and thank you.
Shabbat Shalom. I have such great respect for you and this apology message. Your heart is so humble and יהרה sees that as beautiful! Thank you for this hard message, handled with such grace and humility. You are loved brother. Forgiven and now forgotten. May יהרה continue to bless you faithfully in the matchless Name of Yeshua haMashiach יהרשע / the Anointed One. Ahmein and Ahmein.
Thanks you Pastor Jim, you would not escape prisson for standing for the truth of God's word. I watch your debate with Chris and it increased my faith. As i watched that debate, God did am amzing through a call from two of my clients.
May God continue using yoi to spread the truth. I'm a second generation Sabbath keeper through the Seventh Day Adventist movement and i give no attention to people pushing the doctrines of men, instead i pray for Jesus to work in them.
I found you in 2014 & learned a lot, & I’m glad you’re back! We all make mistakes & learn part of life!!! I have always stood by you sir! Bless you!!!
I have respect and love for you my brother in Yeshua!
Baruch HaShem pastor! I found Torah and fell in love with your teachings especially truth or tradition, to eat or not to eat, Identity crisis, End of the age part 1-6, What happens after death, How to have your prayers heard and so much more. tell you what, they all built my spiritual life up to this day! when I learnt that you were in prison I cried because I was convinced in my heart that you were innocent. one of my good friends who brought me to Messianic movement mentioned that he thought you were probably told by your lawyer to plea guilty and you just confirmed this on this video. I prayed for you and your beautiful wife and children. I cried tears of joy when you got released and reunited with your family. You're forgiven. Bashem Yeshua!
Bless you and thank you for your humble spirit. Your teachings have blessed me and grown me beyond words over the years. I'm so grateful to you and for you.
Praying for every blessing on you and your precious wife and family, always. Thank you. 🙌🙏 Leonie XX
Jim thanks for you!! I was standing with you in Yalta 🇺🇦Ukraine
We love you Jim, thank you praise Yah!
Shalomie Homie brother Jim! Forgiven on my End! Praise Yah!
I praise Yahweh for Jim Staley and his entire family. Yahweh used you powerfully from the start of PFT and I believe will continue to do so. HalleluYah! Thank you, Jim for being obedient to the Father. Shalom!
You are forgiven we all are not perfect. Thanks Jim pray Gods peace upon you at all times.
Just want to say thank you. You are the one who get me interested in Hebrew alphabet and gemtria. And since then , bible study never the same again.
Thank you Jim Staley! This has meant so much for me. My Yahweh continue to use you. Shabbat Shalom
Shalom goodness both of you pastor 🙏.
Please be a man of integrity. Your teachings have the power of changing hearts and getting them closer to Yahweh.
Thank you so much pastor, you're the best!
If the other pastors would do as you have done, the church would be flourishing instead of dying. Bless you my brother, I have always grown in knowledge of your teachings. I didn't never stop learning from your teachings due to your situation, that's between you and Elohim YAHAWAH! May HE continues to bless you and your family ❤
I have no reason to listen any further, but thank you for your transparency ❤
Praising for Abba for this..I learned a lot from your teachings and when u were indicted, the Father just protected me from thinking negative
about u..i just prayed..i cried realizing ur family won't have u but at d back of my mind i know you wud be able to get out..Thank you and blessed is YHVH
Amen. It was very hard but all worth it if he gets more glory.
Love you Jim
We need more people like you. Keep on the good work and teaching the true gospel
It will now be part of character and function through the mercy and grace of Yeshua to walk in humility regarding the brethren to build them up, each serving in their unique way as precious stones in the House of Adonai.💝👑 The clock seems to be stuck on 2:22. Shalom
Thank you Jim for being so honest and having the guts to do this. It is a very good example for all of us.Thank you for all your wonderful teachings always! From South Africa. Lots of love ❤
God works through all of us in amazing ways and He is present in this video. I'm seeing humility and a godly spirit.
I have no skin in the game, but you have always been open about this. I watched the video a few years ago when you apologized to the church. I thought you explained it well and were forthright. Because of that, I never had an issue with you as a teacher. It was just an oversight/mistake that was specific to Missouri (where other states allowed it). I prayed for you while you were incarcerated. I also had my first seder with your family as I was new to Torah and watched online to understand how to celebrate Passover for the first time. Now you're in good company with other people in scripture who were jailed or made mistakes but kept faith and blossomed going forward. So continue to press forward toward the prize and keep the faith. Blessings to you and your wonderful family.
We accept your apology. His grace is sufficient for us all. We thank God for His redemptive work in us all.
Jim, jubilee and restoration are at work because of your obedience.
We met in Portland at Red lion Inn at Love for Israel conference and that was the year you shared about Muhammad Ali's nephew testimony. I also have never forgotten our face to face conversation with you and my wife at the time. ( I also have always wished for you and the messianic pastor up in Tacoma Washington be the united and do teachings/ministry together)
I appreciate your courage to be honest, transparent, and humble enough to face the consequences and whatever reactions from those you deeply hurt and disappointed and to deeply forgive all who wronged you in that process.
In 2 days I graduate from an addiction program and one day I too will have to go face to face to all the ones I hurt, used and abused for selfish gain and I thank God and you for showing me that example.
To God be the Glory (TGBTG)
Amen my friend! I pray the father will bless you for every step that you take to help make his image shine just a little bit brighter in his kingdom. - Jim.
This testimony is incredible...I remember watching Identity Crisis and Truth or Tradition and it changed my life forever. I remember the division it caused in my family...and how difficult it was to watch you go to prison, how confusing it was. I was lost for many years after that...but the Father broke me, much like he broke you. Now I am in a situation where I desperately need the ability to be humble and own my own impact and take responsibility for the way that I have hurt people close to me. Even though there is incredible injustice in this situation, I also deserve it.
But Yahweh has been faithful. I feel that he is restoring what was lost and broken, starting from all those years ago in 2014. Now I am not afraid to speak out what I believe...I am standing on the rock in the midst of the storm.
Your testimony has been an integral part of that for me. Thank you for remaining faithful, and for going through the terrible pain of the refiner's fire to come out on the other side with a broken and contrite heart.
what a testimony Sir🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼may the Good Lord bless you and continue to strengthen you and your family, thanks for sharing your experience in this desert, our GOD Yeshúa comfort you and give you the Peace you need ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Jim!! I'm a nineteen year old that turns twenty in a month, I'm so glad you're talking about this! I've heard mentions of your time in jail before and always wondered what happened. The truth will set you free my guy!! This has only semented my thoughts on your character. You are setting the GREATEST example for transparency and personal responsibility.
As someone who will hopefully be a judge one day, this is important to me. Law is so difficult and the justice system is so flawed. But above the system there is God. And that is my comfort. I'm glad you've come onto the other side.
oh I'm so excited to hear what happened. More about the journey from prison. I have been waiting to be able to trust you again like before but not knowing has not made it hard.
Shalom from Switzerland
Learnt a lot from you back then...
Impressed by your walk now
Shalom
Amen!
I only subscribed today and this is where all who follow Him need to be…including myself. Glad I subscribed. I long to completely follow Him, our Creator, our God!
Indeed this world can throw some mind-blowing curve balls (trials) at us. The world and satan might've meant these trials for evil, but our Father YAH means it for GOOD. I've been going through a lot with my job, and my life in general, especially since i've been really trying to make a true TORAH-based repentance daily. This live you did really cut to my heart. Hearing your story brought me to tears, and I actually felt like our Father YAH was speaking directly to me through your experience brother. HALLELUYAH! because what the world and the devil might've meant for evil, our Father YAH means it for GOOD.
Thank you for sharing your heart. We followed your ministry closely from our group. It was difficult.
It was maybe halfway through your incarceration and a few years when the news came out. God asked me to pray for you. 🙏
I even wrote a couple times because my own son was in the same prison you were at.
There was some hurt there because of the impact on our group in Nebraska. 😢
Again, thank you so much.
We learned a lot from your presentations years ago.
Then I noticed my wife listening to your Identity Crisis presentation yesterday, and that prompted me to listen to your Two Witnesses presentation last night.
I learned so much, so much made sense, and I don’t feel so alone on my journey as a result.
Thank you.
I don’t refer to your material as teachings because you present, and God teaches.
Your journey reminds us of who God really is, and brings to mind Psalm 51:17, Isaiah 57:15 and 66:2
Baruch HaShem for this vídeo pastor! For us who doesn’t know you personally, maybe is easy to understand, but I hope that all the people who personally was hurt one day, can forgive you and understand that all situation that we pass through in our life, there is a meaning, and to see you on internet recognizing your mistakes, it’s a sign of humble.
Adonai bless you pastor🙌🏻
I’m new to your channel and teaching, but have learned a whole lot from your teachings, has awaken my spirt for more in a new light. Thank you for sharing truth and I look forward to learn from you and also see you continue to grow the Kingdom. Thanks you and God bless
Big hug Jim!! God is working!! Love you bro and PROUD of you!
Jim, it takes courage to make teshuva so publicly. Sending you and your family so much love; we are thankful for all the years of truth and teaching you have shared!
Did anyone else notice the clock was not functioning. Time stood still for Jim to make his apology to the public. The only forgiveness we NEED is from our Heavenly Father and he freely forgives us through the sacrifice of Yahushua our Messiah from Nazareth. So whether other people forgive Jim or not, in all of eternity ... it does not matter. The only forgiveness that matters has already been given. Rest in peace Jim ... rest in the peace that passeth all understanding that only our Heavenly Father can give us. Rest and cease from seeking other's approval, other's forgiveness, etc. Seek only our Father's approval and forgiveness as He is the only one that truly can forgive.
Our Heavenly FATHER Revives the Spirit of the Lowly!
And so you are ....IN THE ORDER OF DAVID!!
A BROKEN AND A CONTRITE HEART, O GOD, THOU WILL NOT DESPISE!!
Thankyou Brother!! BE BLESSED ALWAYS!!! BASHEM YAHSHUA HA MASHIACH!! SO BE IT!!❤
My heart broke when you were imprisoned. I was completely stunted in my walk. It took me quite a while to come back to myself, it was as if you died. But I never stopped praying for you and your family and O never doubted who you were and still are today. Bless Yeshua for you and
Cheryl and your children and I wish you all the very best that Yehovah has for
You.
I am deeply sorry for any hurt that I have caused you. I pray that the father will restore 10 times with the locus have eaten! - Jim
@@PassionForTruthVideo you are loved and not for one moment was I upset with you. I just missed your teaching and worshipping with Cheryl. Yeshua continue to bless you and your family!
Thank you Jim for being obedient to The Lord. I pray all of us will receive this message and walk in complete healing through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. You and all of us have been given a gift from The Lord that will change lives for Christ but we must always keep before us The Word which says unless The Lord builds the house those that labor will labor in vain.
Brother, my pride was toxic. I ask Him constantly to destroy my pride and I’ve lived in tears the last few months.
I tried sharing some of your teachings (which I went Berean on and tested to scripture and could find no wrong), but people refused to watch because they judged you based on your worldly sin(instead of looking in the mirror and seeing their own. They are somehow better?!)
I’m a piece of broken garbage and I’ll take anyone who understands scripture over myself. Thank you for your efforts Jim. Thank you for showing me The Word
Amen! We hope this apology may soften their hearts to these friends of yours. May they see a truly repented man in Jim and have the heart to forgive him as he asks for Yah and those he transgressed to forgive him as well.
The same thing happened to me.
@@PassionForTruthVideo.... I'm sincerely praying that Jim's confession isn't abused by those who are un-redeemed, and try to re-open a "can of worms"!!

Many have to meet our Maker. I have had my come to Yeshua moments and humiliation can teach us powerful lessons no others or no one can teach us. When I became like David and except my wrong, Our Heavenly Father said he was man after His Own heart. This is who we want to become, Thank you for sharing..
Listening to all the information you've given.... Yeah, you were GUILTY ! ! ! Thank God you went to jail for your crime...
Praise the Lord for the new Pastor Jim 👍 and may all this passion burn and keep making you so much stronger; you are showing what strength is really about; and may your 2.0 mission keep shinning in Spirit and Truth, may the Lord rescue everyone of us! So that the Spirit will always abound in our truth ✌️👍
Amen!
I’m knew to your channel and I’m so grateful for the many teachings that I’ve watched. Wow you teach the truth and it’s so rare to find. And this! Yes this is absolutely necessary because No one takes ownership anymore and WE ALL NEED TO BE ACCOUNTABLE. Thank you for your humility and sharing and repentance to all.
Thank you for your words!! It's a privilege to serve you with this ministry. We pray that the Father continues His work in you until completion! Shabbat Shalom
Barakah my brother! You are a great Pastor and your humble heart is a great example of how we need to take responsibility for our actions. Thanks for this clarification, but it never kept me from listening to your sermons! It's so obvious you are a chosen one! Barakah Yahushua!!💙🙏
I have respect and love for you my brother. Abba knows what is best for each of us and all happens in His perfect timing. Shalom 🙏🏻
Bless your heart Pastor Jim! Thank you so much for being raw, truthful & repentant. It is profound what YHWH has done & is still doing. Bless you, Cheryl & your family! ❤️
Happy you are back. You were missed.
Jim , Back in 2015 I started studying end time prophecies and I come to know you since then . I am so blessed by your deep understanding and sharing of those end time knowledge then I started googling who you are since I am residing in Ethiopia and come across a story of what you have explained and was confused that I don’t expect such accusations. Anyways I am happy that you shared us your side of story and apologize those who are concerned . Bless you and want you to teach more .
It took courage to speak this. Thank you for being an example.
You are MOST certainly forgiven my brother in Christ............Remember Jim what does the LORD require of us......To do Justly, Love Mercy and to walk humbly before our GOD
Shalom From Kansas City MO 🙏
Thankyou Pastor,
it could've been me or any one of us. Thats how much Hashem loves you/us! God bless us all!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Your heart is right before God!
Thank you Jim for this video. I appreciate it alot. I love all your videos and now even more. Thank you!❤
Thank you for your comment. Shalom and blessings to you. Lisa - PFT Team.
I have never left your side. I knew there was purpose in you going to jail. I've never felt so dedicated to any teacher more than you. The Father used you to reach me in ways only Yah could facilitate. Thank you for your rawness. For continuing and for not giving up.
Jim Staley, we understand you are mortal being. Jesus came not to condemn but to save.
Thank you for being strong. I know God has forgiven you
We support you from Papua New Guinea.
Forgive as we have been forgiven. Thank you for this confession and admitting your wrong doing. The lack there of had me struggling to accept your teachings. I am now happily joining in your studies. Thank the Father for nudging you to do this and take another step at uniting the body! HalleluYah!
Thanks for this video, Jim. I am a Seventh Day Adventist who loves your videos and I had unsubscribed to your channel when this happened, but recently I wanted to share the Truth or Tradition video with family members and I found this video, praise God! He knows what we need, and when He knows we love Him, he will humble us, ONLY, for our own benefit. We love you, Jim. God be with you today and always!
I’m a Seventh Day Adventist who has started to celebrate Yom Kipur and now Sukot. I used the same Bible and logic around Sabbath. May the Lord guide you to the Truth we’re all looking for
I respect you Jim.. this wasn’t easy. Move on now with the refreshment of repentance. 🌹
Thank you for your apology Jim. And praise God!
That was a powerful message Jim.
