Thank you pastor Francis for your in depth sermon. Always so bless by your sermon.Thanking God for using you so mightily to help us grow spiritually in God and desiring to know God more through your sharing.
My heart breaks for those who have never experienced CHRIST in a supernatural way. I am saying this from a conservative point of view. Yes you can be a non Pentecostal as far as theology goes and experience GOD in a supernatural way. You can be so astonish of the presence of GOD while praying and worshiping HIM. Thank you Francis for the genuine excitement you bring when you share the LORD’S word. I know that there is no difference wether I am speaking to one or 100 concerning GOD’S presence, it’s just as powerful. Thank you for firing me up on this Sunday morning.
I have been listening to your sermons day and Night for the past two days- God is working through you to spread his message which is come to me. God bless you
Father Francis I am sure you know this but I need you to internalize that you are a picture of the Holy Spirit. I listen to your "our father, Abba" speech almost every day. You are motivating and powerful. You enlighten me to how personal this relationship should be (is becoming). Thank you Francis for being willing to be such a powerful vessel for the Holy Ghost!
Seriously the truth whether we can say we still love God when we are being challenged. I have often asked myself whether I dare leave all the comforts to go where God wants me.
LORD I praise You for You alone are worthy of my praise. I know I am a sinner who could only be saved by You sending Jesus to die for me. I thank You for Your Holy Spirit to guide me. LORD I come to You asking that You calm Daniels fear and give him strength to over come his fear and find true fellowship with Your children. Guide & protect Daniel LORD!
Daniel Marcus Durborow I would highly recommend plugging yourself into a good church. Great place not just to worship God, but to find great Christian friends that will pray for u and encourage you.
@@W1LDWESLEY Guys, extroverts rule in western society. You fit in just fine. It is us introverts that are the outcasts and have to struggle to defend ourselves and get the quiet time we need. Actually, it is probably most Christ-like to be equally introverted and extroverted. Perfect balance.
These days we don't understand the meaning of a personal relationship with God. It's for each one of us. Listen to Him speak through His Word. It's not a one-way relationship with constant begging for our needs, and never desiring to know God, or his likes and dislikes. Build it up.
No one is perfect but Francis Chan points people to Christ.... he wants people to live for God. If he or anyone was pointing people away from God the by all means stop listening to them.
@@brianriley9259 Francis Chan is endorsing false teachers like Rick Warren, Benny Hinn, Mike Bickle and other charlatans. By following men such as these, he is leading his followers astray. Simple as that. Hope you looked at the video to see why these people's teachings need to be exposed. Holding on to sound doctrine is not an option. It's a scriptural imperative.
@@kassimees many Lukewarm people do not care. They love there ears tickled and live in so much sin darkness that they cannot judge Chan for his evil deeds as they r just like him. Last days it's sad to see so much false teachers
On 1 John 3 I think this chapter talks on the point of salvation. Talking to those who sin & if you are in Christ how you are changed but if you keep sinning you are of the devil. Which could mean we can be saved then fall away or that we where never saved of we sin
Once saved always saved, but all Christians still sin. Which is why it his mercy is so amazing. We can ask for forgiveness and it is gone. If we have a personal relationship with him we don't want to do those things any more and we continually work to be better.
@@alanhenderson215 no not really. That would be great. But you have to hear obey and follow Jesus to receive eternal life. If you turn away you can't have what you've turned your back on through serial sins. Continuance is key! Rev 3 is a letter from Jesus to His church by the Holy Spirit. If you endure to the end you will be saved!
@@alanhenderson215 I appreciate your point of view but if we don't stand and hold firmly to the gospel and go astray all in the name of mercy we might end up being believers who believed in Vain 1Corinthians 15 And so even if you've been saved you still have to stand firm to remain saved
Just reading 1 Corinthians 12:111. Frances talks on this verse 1 Corinthians 12:7; But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: Then if you read on in the chapter the question what does a manifestation of the Spirit look like is explain. 1 Corinthians 12:8-11; for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills. Which explains what verse7 is talking about
Fellowship is helpful but only Jesus can be your accountability partner if you really want to change your life. I'm struggling but God is always in my mind and on my heart, sometimes I feel like I'm more consumed with thinking of God than driving my car or doing anything else in this life. For a while I thought it was weird, but that's because this world is so fubar and perverse it makes you think that the upside down world of Jesus Christ is weird. Thank God I'm not called to fit in here, because I certainly don't. Peace. I love ya man! I'm trying to work on leaving the decisions in His hands and to keep my own hands clean and out of my own future. I need help in fasting and praying, when I was doing that I was so peaceful and felt so calm and balanced, but something is really urging me to NOT do that, and obviously that's not of God. Help us Lord Jesus, God bless y'all!!
Brother I'm 46 now. I've just now experiencing the Holy Spirit manifesting in me. Since you have the son the Father and Holy Spirit so long, can you please answer me a few questions. Unclean foods are we suppose to not eat pork and shrimp? Or what of the law, just as you described he is in me. I am his slave and very happy to be. But I'm such a babe. I'm so scared I will loose him. Not wanting to get my feet dirty anymore. Sabbath is Saturday no buying selling. I mean everyday is worshipping him. Can you please tell me a few things that can help me mature much faster in these last days. So that I can do the Fathers will in these last hours. God bless you and thank you. I know he is changing me more and more day by day to be like him.
Earl Callaway Mark 7:19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean.)
I'm right there with ya❣️ I'm a new convert of God and the Holy Spirit and afraid of misstepping because "strait is the gate, and narrow is the way ... and few there be that find it". I've given up everything, more than I care to type here, and it is all worth it. Stay strong ... His will, His way. Peace and love to you❣️
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 Stop thinking about what you can do and just focus on what God can do. For we humans fail. But God does not. Godbless you
@@tbadini11 it's all about God, Jesus defended his desiples for tearing off and eating on the sabbath for being hungry/ good of man. The law wasn't written for evil to be used against man. I think most important is Jesus claimed them just as he claims us with his Holy Spirit. Freeing us from the law because of our faith? Which is now written in our hearts and is a part of us?
Francis Chan is a guest speaker all over the place because he's so good. he used to be the lead pastor at a mega church in California but now he just runs a program called We Are Church, where they just have small groups in many homes.
Well that is a good question. My response would be a question to ponder. That question is: "is the movie or tv show a movie or tv show that is something that leads you towards God or towards sin?" I will explain if you watch a tv show and you see sex in it then have a wank or lust then should it be something you should of watched? So you need to judge your tv or movies that you watch based on either how it leads the heart and mind. If it leads you towards sin or shows sins then I would say depending on how strong your faith is to judge it based on that or just not watch it.
There is no yes or no, it has so many variables. But ask yourself, is what I’m doing honoring God? Also, God gifts us with plenty of things that we can take joy in so long as they are not our functional savior. I watch movies, TV, anime, play video games, etc. but I am very mindful of how much I consume in comparison to how much time I am spending with God. I have people to hold me accountable and ensure that I am inviting God into my life more than the things that won’t fill me the same way that God does. Look up the difference between sins and scruples. If it is something that you feel as though you have no control over, I would suggest cutting it out but hearing it from a random TH-cam commenter may not provide the answer you are searching for. I encourage you to ask God about these things and He will provide you with the answers you need.
Frances Chan has either used an sermon and is sharing it to a new audience or has put an a new spin on this section of scripture. Or is just reposting the same video again
If John 3:4 is factual, how does Paul say I do the things I don't want to do, but don't do the things I should do Romans 7:15. According to this reasoning John and Paul conflict. One should be an instant sanctification, the other is process of working through our relationship with Christ and free will. Then to look at it another way Paul identifies as a slave who has been set free. Gods goal is not worship but obedience! Just like Jacob, wrestling with the Lord, getting closer to the truth!
John 3:4; Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb & be born?" Romans 7:15-16; For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. 16 If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that is good.
The man described in Rom7 tries to become righteous through obeying the Law, but he lacks the power to live out. The solution is in Chapter 8. A man in Christ gains power from the indwelling Holy Spirit to live out a holy life if he lives according to the Holy Spirit, not to his own sinful nature.
That’s the only pastor who kneels to pray before preaching.
That shows reverence humility and discipline
Praise be to God
Amen yes he is an awesome preacher so anointed by God
Thank you for feeding us so well with what's most needed. The love of God and that for a brother.
I'd like to have even 1/2 of the passion that this man has for God. Lord, put this kind of passion inside of me for You!!!!!
Ask God for the Holy Spirit and you'll have it. :)
Amen 🙏
Yes
Amen

So refreshing🙏 to hear a truth from a pastor on fire for the Loard. No prosperity gospel here👍He is preaching better than there saying amen .

Being an introvert is a good thing! Lots of quiet time with God! Too bad Western society thinks extraversion is the way to be...
By nature I am an extrovert. It's hard for me to quiet my mind.... I am working on it...
I see opportunities in being an extrovert. Try giving an ear to Trumpet Of Truth Ministries (funny old fire brimstone man)
@@W1LDWESLEY
Guys, extroverts rule in western society. You fit in just fine. It is us introverts that are the outcasts and have to struggle to defend ourselves and get the quiet time we need.
Actually, it is probably most Christ-like to be equally introverted and extroverted. Perfect balance.
Alone time is nice I agree. But being married to an introvert is lonely and hurtful. Balance is healthy
Thank you for this uncompromising message, God bless your ministry
