May our Lord and Savior Jesus touch your heart. May He comfort you with peace beyond understanding. You will see your grandbaby in heaven...trust that the Lord loves that child more than you do❤
Your granddaughter walks with Jesus, eats of the tree of life, drinks of the river of life, and asks when she will see you again. Bless children around you, love your children, God will comfort your grief and give you new joy in the new relationships you build.
Will keep you in my prayers. I understand I lost a child before I could hold my child. I found peace and comfort in Jesus through prayer and knowing that one day I will see my child again.

I've found myself so much lately either not posting or backspacing a LOT....and 4 years ago before rededicating to Christ I was one of the biggest trolls
@@Mandalorian_of_Christ Hi Jacob! I was too! I had a twitter account with a lot of followers. I used a fake name and fake profile pic. I used it to vent my frustrations by trolling in ways that were neither edifying, nor encouraging and in fact only demeaned myself, my mood, and my walk with Jesus. I had a moment of clarity and realized I was playing into the antichrist spirit with bitterness. I began to wonder what my words were doing to others. So I stopped using that twitter account. I stopped going to mainstream news outlets, even patriot news outlets. I stay out of politics all together and focus on our Lord Jesus instead. I read the bible every single morning now and started a bible study group that I lead. So, now when I post online, I'm in a completely different mindset. " _that He might sanctify and cleanse_ (me) _with the washing of water by the word_ " ~Eph 5:26. Anyway, I'm glad to hear your success story as well! God Bless! ~Mike
Love all , Forgive all, and PRAY for all. None of us are righteous. Especially ME, please pray for your enemies and mine.We are all sinners and have brokenness. Without your prayers your enemies don't have a chance to repent. Many are being led astray.
What helps me to deal with a wicked world (after study of God's Word first) is reminding myself that these things have all been foretold by God from the very beginning and spoken of by His prophets and recorded in the bible and all these things must take place. Layin low and looking up! God bless y'all.
Yes. That's it when you spoke of "motive." If your heart ain't in check then you need to "check yourself." It's hard to be introspective in self critique when you spirit is haughty within you. Humble ourselves. Lord lead us into humility 🙏 thank yiu Jesus for being the truth, way, & life 🙏

Proverbs 3 3 Let know LOVING commitment ant TRUTH forsake you-bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your HEART. 2 cor 3 3 And you show that you are a letter from Messiah/Christ DELIVERED by us, written not with ink but with the SPIRIT of the living YAH/God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human HEARTS. Ezekiel 11 19-20 And I will give them one HEART, and a NEW SPIRIT I will put within them. I will remove the HEART of stone from their flesh and give them a HEART of flesh, that they may walk in "my statutes" and keep my rules and obey them. And they shall be my "PEOPLES", and I will be their YAH/God. Jer 31 33 But this is the COVENANT that I will make with the HOUSE of ISRAEL after those days, declares the Adonai/Lord: I will put my TORAH within them, and I will write it on their HEARTS. And I will be their YAH/God, and they shall be MY PEOPLES ie YAHisrael. Hebrews 10 16 This is the COVENANT I will make with them after that time, says the Adonai/Lord. I will put my TORAH/ law in their HEARTS, and I will write them on their MINDS.” Daniel 7 28 Hitherto is the END OF THE MATTER. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I KEPT the MATTER in my HEART Eph 6:6 - not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as BONDSERVANTS of Messiah/Christ, doing the WILL of YAH/God from the HEART, Isaiah 56 6-7 And FOREIGNERS who bind themselves to the Adonai/LORD to minister to him, to LOVE the name of the Adonai/LORD, and to be his SERVANTS, all who KEEP THE SABBITH without desecrating it and who hold fast to my COVENANT - these I will bring to my HOLY mountain and give them joy in my HOUSE of prayer. Their burnt offerings and SACRIFICES will be ACCEPTED on my altar; for my HOUSE will be called a house of prayer for all NATIONS.” ~Now you.can understand~ Jeremiah 17-5 Thus says the Adonai/LORD: “Cursed is the man who "TRUST IN MAN" And makes flesh his strength, Whose HEART departs from the Adonai/LORD.

Your message today brought up great supporting Old Testament scriptures that are not discussed enough. Christ and Christianity are disparaged by the secular world precisely for the reasons you stated; the righteous indigination, the self-service actions, the involvement in politics, the vindicative attacking on-line comments, the back-biting, the fighting, etc., that so-called CHRISTIANS partake in. Myself having been one of these. God doesn't want his children behaving this way. I find myself looking back at my life and seeing these mistakes I have made and I feel like I, hopefully, am moving closer and closer to God, to Jesus, by moving away from these bad behaviors. Not perfect, never will be, but better than I was. Your message today is probably THE most important message any Christian needs to hear and follow is this one that you have given us today. You are a truly mature-in-the-Word Christian and an excellent pastor. God bless you! Thank you.
Got convicted watching this. Thank you. ❤ Christianity seems to have taken a backseat to the evils in this world and some of us seem to have forgotten what Jesus taught us. I can “Be angry and sin not” at the injustices in this world. Appreciate your wisdom. ❤
Rebuke is not a bullet to the head. Leviticus 19:17 You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him. You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.

So much of this going on these days unfortunately. Lots of keyboard watchdogs and warriors alike I suppose. Thanks for posting though and especially exhorting us with the scripture!
Hello from WV! One of our credit unions has a box for give and take what you need! What a joy to see that! Such a minimal effort! Just stick something in, and somebody gets something out. Hopefully the takers need it. Also, we have what we call pickers that come around and take recyclable aluminum cans and such on trash day. That's a way our community gives to those who are in need with minimal effort. They can trade aluminum for money. Some of our churches are suffering from lack of members. It is because there are enabled people who are judgmental in there. i just worship with my family alone for now. Me, my husband, and grown son. We do what we can, live frugally, and support our community. We had some stuff stolen from our outside. Let the thieves "be happy with it it." is our motto. That's all. God bless you and your ministry!
true, I observe the behavior of many 'Christians' today being spiteful, self centered, hateful & ugly (so much gossip). it seems like people are afraid to be their true self in front of others, people seem to be ashamed so they lie & display a fake self. the church is filled with depression & insecurities - I guess because the devil has gained the upper hand on the minds of folks. I miss the 70's & 80's when the majority of people around me were genuine & trustworthy
When the media outs the hidden sin of a pastor or Christian leader, I'm always reminded of this passage: "So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." John 8:7.
Great message brother Mike. I do have one critique though. When you quoted Micha 6 and said God was weary. The verse actually says the people of Israel were the ones weary, if you look closely.
Mister Pearl, I've been listening to you for years. My biggest struggle is Jesus' commandment that we should love one another. How can I? when I can't stand anyone I know?
It's actually "love others as I have loved you." Before we can love others the way He loves us, we first need to understand how much He loves us. 1 John 4:10. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us... 1 John 4:19. We love Him because He first loved us. Ephesians 3:17-19 (really concentrate on this one until it sinks in what is being said here, but I will give the highlights of the 3 verses). Be rooted and grounded in love by Christ dwelling in your hearts BY FAITH (adding works of any kind to Him dwelling in your heart will block you from being grounded in His love for you, blocked in your own mind. 18). To comprehend thee 4 dimensions of His love for us 19). And to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge so that you can be filled with all the fullness of God. But the one verse that Got me looking into all this was John 17:23 that God loves us the same as He loves Jesus. Jesus was praying that we would know that the Father loves us as He loves Jesus, not that the Father would love us, but that we would know it. So know it. Own it. Stand fast in it. Be established in the fact that the Father loves you enough to offer up His most precious possession for you personally. Only then can you begin to love others as Christ loves you.
Try to pray for them. For example, if we struggle to forgive, it really helps to pray for them. And ask the Lord to help you with loving them. It's not always about feelings or if we feel the love, but our actions show our heart. Praying for them is loving them. Caring for their soul. I struggle with love too since humans have destroyed me through tremendous abuse. But by God's grace I forgive and pray for them. And some things take time. The LORD will help you if you ask Him. God bless
6:25 “they fast with strife” they have no food, therefore take the opportunity to fast. Rather than choose to when they have plenty, is how I interpret the scripture.. 🙏🏼
Michael Pearl can you please speak on conditional salvation? It speaks on believers having the ability to lose their salvation due to disobedience, willful sin, no fruit, no good works.
I don't think he believes in conditional salvation. What you have described sounds like Lordship Salvation, a works-based salvation, which is not Biblical...this teaching that you lose your salvation by sinning or that you must earn or maintain your salvation through good works. If our salvation could be lost because of sin, then no Christian would ever make it to Heaven, because we have all sinned and also continue to sin even after we got saved. David J. Stewart has written a lot of articles on this topic. Search for them online.
Conditional salvation is what Satan tells you to create doubt in the gift you have received. Do not be deceived. God is not an “Indian giver”. He doesn’t give and then take away. Paul in Corinthians expels a man from the church for having relations with his stepmother. Paul explains that he is still a believer but has slipped and this correction is required to bring him back. That man did come back later in the book and he repented. Never once did that man lose his salvation.
our times are complex, I personally believe that the vast majority now claiming Christianity are in fact false believers, they have not love, they are ignorant of the Word, most are apostates which is to say they never experienced a genuine faith in the saving power of Christ, never really were there. These are the people that keep up good appearances, they are religious having a system that they have made up that substitutes for the humbleness they need before God. These are difficult times, so much evil abounds it tends to harden and desensitize even the most genuine believers and there is so much false teaching that with the extreme stress of all the evil a believer can lose sight of Christ very quickly. Come Lord Jesus.
Well, Yes some do this if a leader has sinned. People like Copland are always in the targets site. I try now to just let the Lord deal with it, but then I even argue with myself that some people need pointed out. There is so much wickedness out there, so people are really watching, and I believe finding so much evil that they cannot handle it and they expose things: excessively who knows. I do believe mercy is something we need to keep mindful of more often. It should be part of our make up as the Lord is mercy.
This goid video to handle conmunicating with others. Galations 5 : 22 if we proceed with the fruit of spirit. Humbleness is a great one. Over 25 verses about it. Janes 3:5 God gives grace to the humble
It reminds me very much of how people have gone to a systematically reformed seminary, and they may have had a purity before they went. But after they finished, they set themselves up as a discernment ministry, and now they are subverting and turning people away from knowing Jesus intimately, simply because they don't walk and talk systematic theology. Jesus said u to His disciples, that had said, "Master, we saw one casting out, and we forbade him because he follows not after us", and Jesus told them not to forbade them, because they weren't against Jesus. And they wonder why religion here in America doesn't seem to be producing a church that can't be destroyed by the gates of hell.
I love our Lord, I do have a question. We are to bring God into all that we do as we are to represent him. I've only recently for the past few years paid attention to politics. I have never voted, but I am wrestling with voting or not voting in 2024. Everything feels off.
People that purposely slander others instead of just gossip against them, are manipulative enough and shrewd enough never to put anything online, and many of these people call themselves Christians and conservative or other kinds of homeschoolers, but not all of them.
Pastor Pearl I have noticed that one of the biggest problems out there is most pastors not doing there Job teaching 1 corinthians 15:1-4 KJV, Romans 3:23-31 KJV that our faith is to be in the Blood. Most just get repeat after me this pray. And then they are told you are now saved. I feel that this is part of which has lead to snarky Comments from people that think they are saved, but they don’t have the Holy Spirit in them which leads to change. Peace, Love, Mercy….. Then there is the other group of people that are from religious groups that the world see as Christians that are clearly not, but the people in this group don’t understand that they are far from the truth. Which helps to add to this whole problem of snarky comments that shows no Holy Spirit in them. We truly do live very near to the end much apostasy going on in the churches today. It’s very sad that there are few pastors like yourself out there. If only there was more like you then maybe this world would look much different. I have thought about what to say when I see snarky comments, but these Bible verses come to mind when I do. Proverbs 9:8-9 KJV 8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee. 9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. Am I wrong in my thinking on these verses? May God Bless you!
Lofty indeed, but I must point out to you that the days we are in we cannot go out and unburdin some of the homeless, because I worked with the homeless for a time here in Chattanooga, TN. it's become to dangerous for the common Christian to do these things without serious reprecussions, physical repercussions...the days, they are a changing.
Thank you for this comment, it really spoke to me. I came Back to the Father late and did not lead anything even close to a Christian life for a very long time. Anyway I have been trying to figure out how to answer God's call to walk after Christ and although I still don't know exactly how, this definitely helped. I have no fear of the homeless, mentally ill, drug addicts, or any other person that would be out in the streets, (for a short period I myself was homeless).
Great! Can we discuss the fact that Solomon describes God in Proverbs 30:4 ? He does it in the exact same manner as the sumerians would depict the Anunnaki deity Enki from a planet called Nibiru. With a garment of flowing waters. Why does Solomon do that?
Pastors calling Christians snarky for reading their Authorized King James and learning corporate pastor don't exist, and they certainly don't get paid. Acts 20 1 Corinthians 9 Acts 4
I want you to know I really like and agree with most of your content. The premise of this episode is spot on. But I have a question about Micah 6:3. I understood you to say that God was wearied but my reading seems to say that "His people" were wearied. Maybe this was just a mistake and if it was don't worry, I make them all of the time. I wouldn't normally point out such an thing on a public forum but I don't know how to ask you privately. I live in a spiritual desert and truly wish I had a good congregation to be associated with but I find myself meeting in my home with a few, very few, other believers and most of them can't be counted on. Pray for me and keep up the good teaching.
There's one thing I can testify to that I know for a fact the Lord God spoke to me in answer to a prayer. Early into my coming into the saving faith of God's grace I was witnessing a hurt man act out on his pain. I asked the Lord from my heart what shall I do to be a help to him. And in that moment it felt like my body was no more and in power and love I felt and heard a voice say MERCY. It was over as quick as it happened and I still remember the reverberations that went through my body and the flash of light that seemed to be shielded by my flesh broducing a redish golden glow that appeard when I felt myself snap back into reality. So that's exactly what I did, I showed this angry hurt man mercy and in time it proved to be exactly what he needed. That man was my grandpa and after that day he began to tell me he loved me every time we parted ways and before then he never did. I really think there's 2 classes of people, those who call for mercy and those who call for judgement.
You are JESUS CHRIST pearl in the world I thank my FATHER for you HE is going to reward you and your wife with never knowing this world without each other you'll see❤
Some Christians argue that Jesus got mad at the merchants of the temple, so even He bestowed wrath upon these people, righteously. Therefore, some Christians think that some internet situations require the same actions, like they were in some kind of crusade or something. We think that we are as better as Jesus to justify our anger and unleash our wrath upon people for our disagreements or mistakes. There are some passages on the New Testament that are badly interpreted in such a way to justify being unforgivably harsh to others at internet. Happened to me many times, right before I was about to post a comment, then I read it and realized how terribly I was behaving, how poorly I was representing Christianity, then I deleted everything just to re-write with a kind heart, relieved for taking notice before it was too late. I pray to God to never lose myself to this bitterness and anger that can easily come by interacting in the internet. I always ask, in my prayers, for God to give me a good loving heart, a better heart, because I fear, deep in my being, being swallowed by darkness and losing the capacity to love, bit by bit. It's a dreadful feeling, specially because I hurt so many people by being explosive at my past.
It’s true that we can all jump on the judgmental bandwagon, and that should not be. But it’s also true that NOT everyone online who says that they are Christian or claims to represent Christianity, are actually believers. Some are enemy plants doing what they are appointed to do which is to argue and cause division. An unconverted, evil heart, will say evil things. Luke 6:45 - A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
My ex friend became very prideful and very critical of my relationship with God. Satan used her against me. Now I am trying to become stronger with God by reading the Bible I've neglected over the years. Satan almost destroyed me, but it backfired on him. I thank God for helping me see the prideful sin of my ex friend and he warned me to stay away. And I took the hint.
That’s exactly why I withdrew myself and my beautiful wife did also from social media PERMANENTLY! I know I have strong brothers and sisters in Christ that can get on there and be a blessing to others on the social media platforms, but I can’t do it I get convictions and find myself having to bridle my mouth. I’ve been getting involved in soul winning and talk face to face with people because they have a little more respect to your face and so do I. Honestly when people see me they think twice before they offend me until they realize that beyond all the tattoos and rough look I have do to my past they see that I’m just a big ol teddy bear and that’s when they mistakenly think that I am just a big ol push over or something but I’ll be honest when I’m seriously disrespected I stand up for myself I ain’t afraid to defend myself one bit but I also do it with grace and I try to stay patient and watch myself when I react but that’s only because of the Holy Spirit. I wasn’t always that easy to deal with. But amen brother I love when you teach it’s absolutely always a big huge blessing to hear you preach and teach the word of our precious Lord.
I was about to write to you not to withdraw from the world even from social media; for how then can we reach others but you write that you indeed meet people in the face to face "arena." I appreciate your honest expression of your walk and honoring of the Holy Spirit. I think that the bible can defend us adequately. A fruit of the spirit is self-control :) :) :)
@@booyaka870 thank you soo much for responding to me I was just recently injured on the job, I almost became paralyzed permanently but by the grace of God it was temporary so I’ve been temporarily absent from our outreach on Saturdays to try and win souls to Christ but I’m literally waking up tomorrow morning and heading out to the field to serve our Lord and proclaim the Gospel to my community. I go door knocking with my brothers and sisters in Christ and boy we got boots on the ground out here it’s a blessing to serve others and to serve our Lord I’m addicted to it.
@@Lauren-vd4qe yes ma’am, I sure do try and be as loving as possible. It takes quite a bit to get me in the defensive mode but like I said I try and be as graceful and peaceful as possible. But I will not be violently attacked without a fight. I hope that I never have to be in a position where I’d need to use self defense but it’s always a possibility out here my community is starting to fill up with satanists and lgbtq+ individuals that absolutely hate the Lord and I’ve even had a young lady growl at me in the grocery store while I was checking out my food because I was wearing a crucifix logo on my ball cap, and homosexuals mistreat me at the store who were both employees of a major company. So I’m in prayer constantly here and it wasn’t till after Covid that it started getting progressively worse. Before quarantine this town was VERY Christian and peaceful.
i agree; be at peace with all men as much as it is within you. but even Christ was no pussy! he overturned the market tables in the temple and lashed them with a whip! talk about kicka$$ eh!! @@JacobAnaya369
Mocking other christians for being mockers and so doing evil for evil is like everyday culture I hope will end in the christian world but only remain in the non-christians of which it should be expected because they do not have the hope we have. So be merciful to them; the wrath of God looms over them. Show them mercy. As for other christians: rebuke them but in a loving way that could be expected to generate repentance. What is the point of fruitless complaining about other people?
The reason God's displeased with us, #MichaelPeral, is because we didn't hear Jesus say "He Is the Way, Truth and Life that gets us to the Father" paraphrased. So all we need to do is study the Life and Teaching of God through Jesus and follow Them so God will be Pleased with us!!!
In 1 Corinthians 13, it says if you do something without love it is nothing. “...avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:” --1 Timothy 6:20 When encountering the vain babblings of the Theory of Evolution --humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor, we should focus not on pointing out how stupid and absurd it is, being called science when it is no such thing, but preach Christ crucified. When someone has a black blanket over their head denying the moon exists, rather than argue with the person that there is a moon, share the gospel and pray the Holy Spirit will yank that blanket off their head. We do not have the power to argue enough to remove the blanket. Only the Holy Spirit can remove it allowing that person to see the truth.
I need lots of prayers my 6 year old granddaughter died on June 22 and I am falling apart and away
May our Lord and Savior Jesus touch your heart. May He comfort you with peace beyond understanding. You will see your grandbaby in heaven...trust that the Lord loves that child more than you do❤
Your granddaughter walks with Jesus, eats of the tree of life, drinks of the river of life, and asks when she will see you again. Bless children around you, love your children, God will comfort your grief and give you new joy in the new relationships you build.
You are and will remain in my prayers. So sorry to hear that.
I pray that God would Heal your broken Heart, and you will see her again in Heaven, that is for sure
Will keep you in my prayers. I understand I lost a child before I could hold my child. I found peace and comfort in Jesus through prayer and knowing that one day I will see my child again.
Thanks Lord for your peace

And I will give them one HEART, and a NEW SPIRIT I will put within them. I will remove the HEART of stone from their flesh and give them a HEART of flesh, that they may walk in "my statutes" and keep my rules and obey them. And they shall be my "PEOPLES", and I will be their YAH/God.
Jer 31 33
But this is the COVENANT that I will make with the HOUSE of ISRAEL after those days, declares the Adonai/Lord: I will put my TORAH within them, and I will write it on their HEARTS. And I will be their YAH/God, and they shall be MY PEOPLES ie YAHisrael.
Hebrews 10 16
This is the COVENANT I will make with them after that time, says the Adonai/Lord. I will put my TORAH/ law in their HEARTS, and I will write them on their MINDS.”
Daniel 7 28
Hitherto is the END OF THE MATTER. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I KEPT the MATTER in my HEART
Eph 6:6 - not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as BONDSERVANTS of Messiah/Christ, doing the WILL of YAH/God from the HEART,
Isaiah 56 6-7
And FOREIGNERS who bind themselves to the Adonai/LORD to minister to him, to LOVE the name of the Adonai/LORD, and to be his SERVANTS, all who KEEP THE SABBITH without desecrating it and who hold fast to my COVENANT -
these I will bring to my HOLY mountain and give them joy in my HOUSE of prayer. Their burnt offerings and SACRIFICES will be ACCEPTED on my altar; for my HOUSE will be called a house of prayer for all NATIONS.”
~Now you.can understand~
Jeremiah 17-5
Thus says the Adonai/LORD: “Cursed is the man who "TRUST IN MAN" And makes flesh his strength, Whose HEART departs from the Adonai/LORD.
Rev 12-17 00
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the COMMANDMENTS of YAH/God, and have the TESTIMONY of YAHshua Humasheoc/Jesus Christ”
Rev 14 12
Here is the patience of the Kadosh/qaddish/saints; here are those who keep the COMMANDMENTS of YAH/God and the faith of YAHshua/Jesus
Rev 22 14
Blessed are those washing their robes, that their right will be to the TREE OF LIFE, and they shall enter into the CITY BY THE GATES.
ECC 12 13
When all has been heard, the conclusion of the matter is this: FEAR YAH/GOD and KEEP His COMMANDMENTS, because this is the WHOLE DUTY OF MAN.
I like these simple videos where Mike just chats. Blessings everyone!
That is a much needed video for me thank you Mike
Your message today brought up great supporting Old Testament scriptures that are not discussed enough. Christ and Christianity are disparaged by the secular world precisely for the reasons you stated; the righteous indigination, the self-service actions, the involvement in politics, the vindicative attacking on-line comments, the back-biting, the fighting, etc., that so-called CHRISTIANS partake in. Myself having been one of these. God doesn't want his children behaving this way. I find myself looking back at my life and seeing these mistakes I have made and I feel like I, hopefully, am moving closer and closer to God, to Jesus, by moving away from these bad behaviors. Not perfect, never will be, but better than I was. Your message today is probably THE most important message any Christian needs to hear and follow is this one that you have given us today. You are a truly mature-in-the-Word Christian and an excellent pastor. God bless you! Thank you.
I'm pretty sure the Lord is appalled at the injustice the government is heaping on the public right now
Excellent message Brother Michael
Got convicted watching this. Thank you. ❤ Christianity seems to have taken a backseat to the evils in this world and some of us seem to have forgotten what Jesus taught us. I can “Be angry and sin not” at the injustices in this world. Appreciate your wisdom. ❤
Blessings to you, Sir. (And your family). I agree with you. Thanks for taking the time to post this up on the web.
Rebuke is not a bullet to the head.
Leviticus 19:17 You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him. You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.
Who was being spoken to??
@@Romans33-4 Being spoken to the Jews Christians and Muslims.
John 8:31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.
John 13:34-35 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Islam is garbage - Muhammad wasn't a prophet but rather a child of Satan - would you like me to prove it with scripture??
im a member of several Christian groups online and the pride that flows through these "Godly" men stinks worse than the sins of the worst of sinners.. boasting of their great works, climbing their ladder to look down upon all the other "sinners" to preach their prideful msgs.. its sad really
Your comment sounds like an accusation against the brethren, one of the most stinky sins one can commit.
@@PETERJOHN101 we are to “try the spirits whether they are of God” (John 4:1)
A message that is full of ego, pride, arrogance and completely lacks any humility as they boast and look down upon the brethren fails the test

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
Stay Blessed dear brother!

You are such a blessing to me , Brother ❤️
Thank you for this teaching Sir.
It means a lot to me and was a key opening the door to understand how to Vast before God.

By definition, mercy is injustice, applied in specific cases.
God bless you friend of Jesus, God bless my friend Adam for answering my questions 🙏✝️❤️🌞
There are SOME good social media Christians. Always remember to "...test the spirits, to see if they are of God..." Yeah.
Good sermon🎉.
So much of this going on these days unfortunately. Lots of keyboard watchdogs and warriors alike I suppose. Thanks for posting though and especially exhorting us with the scripture!
this was NOT negative...this was very uplifting
God heal us from elitism. Amen.
That was a very uplifting word of truth and how to treat our brothers and sisters and to hopefully grow God's family
Bless your heart brother! Don’t be too hard on yourself.
Amen, thank you for this Word of God!
I got off facebook years ago because I was mostly doing what Mike talks about here.
It's a good platform if used correctly.
Thank you, this spoke to my heart

Hello from WV! One of our credit unions has a box for give and take what you need! What a joy to see that! Such a minimal effort! Just stick something in, and somebody gets something out. Hopefully the takers need it. Also, we have what we call pickers that come around and take recyclable aluminum cans and such on trash day. That's a way our community gives to those who are in need with minimal effort. They can trade aluminum for money. Some of our churches are suffering from lack of members. It is because there are enabled people who are judgmental in there. i just worship with my family alone for now. Me, my husband, and grown son. We do what we can, live frugally, and support our community. We had some stuff stolen from our outside. Let the thieves "be happy with it it." is our motto. That's all. God bless you and your ministry!
Almost heaven .
Thank you, very powerful but true. God bless you you bless me every time I listen for the message of truth ❤💚💙
I am completely guilty of snarkyness 😔
We need to gather together now as you said show us and lead us Lord in Texas how to start this Gathering.
Thank you for the encouragement. God bless you good sir!
Amen. Appreciate this so much. Thank you.
Thank you
true, I observe the behavior of many 'Christians' today being spiteful, self centered, hateful & ugly (so much gossip). it seems like people are afraid to be their true self in front of others, people seem to be ashamed so they lie & display a fake self. the church is filled with depression & insecurities - I guess because the devil has gained the upper hand on the minds of folks. I miss the 70's & 80's when the majority of people around me were genuine & trustworthy
Jesus said that the love of many would grow cold.
They are still humans. Just like you.
Excellent word Michael.. thank you!
Thank you.
Would you please pray for the homeless and starving children in Yemen
When the media outs the hidden sin of a pastor or Christian leader, I'm always reminded of this passage: "So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." John 8:7.
Great message brother Mike.
I do have one critique though. When you quoted Micha 6 and said God was weary. The verse actually says the people of Israel were the ones weary, if you look closely.
Mister Pearl, I've been listening to you for years. My biggest struggle is Jesus' commandment that we should love one another. How can I? when I can't stand anyone I know?
It's actually "love others as I have loved you." Before we can love others the way He loves us, we first need to understand how much He loves us.
1 John 4:10. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us...
1 John 4:19. We love Him because He first loved us.
Ephesians 3:17-19 (really concentrate on this one until it sinks in what is being said here, but I will give the highlights of the 3 verses). Be rooted and grounded in love by Christ dwelling in your hearts BY FAITH (adding works of any kind to Him dwelling in your heart will block you from being grounded in His love for you, blocked in your own mind.
18). To comprehend thee 4 dimensions of His love for us 19). And to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge so that you can be filled with all the fullness of God.
But the one verse that Got me looking into all this was John 17:23 that God loves us the same as He loves Jesus. Jesus was praying that we would know that the Father loves us as He loves Jesus, not that the Father would love us, but that we would know it. So know it. Own it. Stand fast in it. Be established in the fact that the Father loves you enough to offer up His most precious possession for you personally.
Only then can you begin to love others as Christ loves you.
Try to pray for them. For example, if we struggle to forgive, it really helps to pray for them. And ask the Lord to help you with loving them. It's not always about feelings or if we feel the love, but our actions show our heart. Praying for them is loving them. Caring for their soul.
I struggle with love too since humans have destroyed me through tremendous abuse. But by God's grace I forgive and pray for them. And some things take time. The LORD will help you if you ask Him. God bless
Ask yourself, what would Jesus do right now, anytime you are at odds with your family or others
Stop being selfish. So what if you can’t stand them? Why is it always about you?
This message is for me. I need to stop being rude to people because i dont use my real name.
Good thinking! Thanks for the humility!
This was sooooo goood!!! Amen!!❤❤❤
I needed this. Thanks God Bless
It’s always best to walk away but it’s also most best to stand up in the face of evil and proclaim Jesus mighty name!
6:25 “they fast with strife” they have no food, therefore take the opportunity to fast. Rather than choose to when they have plenty, is how I interpret the scripture.. 🙏🏼
This is my life verse something I think about before I say something to someone.
Michael Pearl can you please speak on conditional salvation? It speaks on believers having the ability to lose their salvation due to disobedience, willful sin, no fruit, no good works.
I don't think he believes in conditional salvation. What you have described sounds like Lordship Salvation, a works-based salvation, which is not Biblical...this teaching that you lose your salvation by sinning or that you must earn or maintain your salvation through good works. If our salvation could be lost because of sin, then no Christian would ever make it to Heaven, because we have all sinned and also continue to sin even after we got saved. David J. Stewart has written a lot of articles on this topic. Search for them online.
Conditional salvation is what Satan tells you to create doubt in the gift you have received. Do not be deceived. God is not an “Indian giver”. He doesn’t give and then take away.
Paul in Corinthians expels a man from the church for having relations with his stepmother. Paul explains that he is still a believer but has slipped and this correction is required to bring him back. That man did come back later in the book and he repented. Never once did that man lose his salvation.
Blessings from Israel ❤ maranatha very soon 🎉
Awesome word brother
I've started calling True Christians Believers..
love has waxed cold
😅 I replied to a calvinist BEFORE i clicked on this video. 😅 But yes, it's too easy online to not be kind.
our times are complex, I personally believe that the vast majority now claiming Christianity are in fact false believers, they have not love, they are ignorant of the Word, most are apostates which is to say they never experienced a genuine faith in the saving power of Christ, never really were there. These are the people that keep up good appearances, they are religious having a system that they have made up that substitutes for the humbleness they need before God. These are difficult times, so much evil abounds it tends to harden and desensitize even the most genuine believers and there is so much false teaching that with the extreme stress of all the evil a believer can lose sight of Christ very quickly. Come Lord Jesus.
Well, Yes some do this if a leader has sinned. People like Copland are always in the targets site. I try now to just let the Lord deal with it, but then I even argue with myself that some people need pointed out. There is so much wickedness out there, so people are really watching, and I believe finding so much evil that they cannot handle it and they expose things: excessively who knows. I do believe mercy is something we need to keep mindful of more often. It should be part of our make up as the Lord is mercy.
Great message 🙏🙏
This goid video to handle conmunicating with others. Galations 5 : 22 if we proceed with the fruit of spirit. Humbleness is a great one. Over 25 verses about it. Janes 3:5 God gives grace to the humble
It reminds me very much of how people have gone to a systematically reformed seminary, and they may have had a purity before they went.
But after they finished, they set themselves up as a discernment ministry, and now they are subverting and turning people away from knowing Jesus intimately, simply because they don't walk and talk systematic theology. Jesus said u to His disciples, that had said, "Master, we saw one casting out, and we forbade him because he follows not after us", and Jesus told them not to forbade them, because they weren't against Jesus.
And they wonder why religion here in America doesn't seem to be producing a church that can't be destroyed by the gates of hell.
I love our Lord, I do have a question.
We are to bring God into all that we do as we are to represent him. I've only recently for the past few years paid attention to politics. I have never voted, but I am wrestling with voting or not voting in 2024.
Everything feels off.
Would you please pray for me

People that purposely slander others instead of just gossip against them, are manipulative enough and shrewd enough never to put anything online, and many of these people call themselves Christians and conservative or other kinds of homeschoolers, but not all of them.
Do you think home schooling is wrong?
Pastor Pearl I have noticed that one of the biggest problems out there is most pastors not doing there Job teaching 1 corinthians 15:1-4 KJV, Romans 3:23-31 KJV that our faith is to be in the Blood. Most just get repeat after me this pray. And then they are told you are now saved. I feel that this is part of which has lead to snarky Comments from people that think they are saved, but they don’t have the Holy Spirit in them which leads to change. Peace, Love, Mercy…..
Then there is the other group of people that are from religious groups that the world see as Christians that are clearly not, but the people in this group don’t understand that they are far from the truth. Which helps to add to this whole problem of snarky comments that shows no Holy Spirit in them.
We truly do live very near to the end much apostasy going on in the churches today. It’s very sad that there are few pastors like yourself out there. If only there was more like you then maybe this world would look much different.
I have thought about what to say when I see snarky comments, but these Bible verses come to mind when I do.
Proverbs 9:8-9 KJV
8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
Am I wrong in my thinking on these verses?
May God Bless you!
Boy isnt that true.
News lol. 😅I feel ya pastor..it can be a challenge..I enjoy your video today
Voddie Baucham calls children, "Vipers in diapers," and no one is offended. The scriptures you have shared are duly noted!

Nicely said brother 👍
Lofty indeed, but I must point out to you that the days we are in we cannot go out and unburdin some of the homeless, because I worked with the homeless for a time here in Chattanooga, TN. it's become to dangerous for the common Christian to do these things without serious reprecussions, physical repercussions...the days, they are a changing.
Thank you for this comment, it really spoke to me. I came Back to the Father late and did not lead anything even close to a Christian life for a very long time. Anyway I have been trying to figure out how to answer God's call to walk after Christ and although I still don't know exactly how, this definitely helped. I have no fear of the homeless, mentally ill, drug addicts, or any other person that would be out in the streets, (for a short period I myself was homeless).
Am I justified in saying what I am saying. Am I showing God’s Mercy when I say what I say. And is it with the knowledge of the scriptures.
good word brother but I cant see that buck on the wall- help a brother out!
lol
Guilty.
Lord change me.
I agree. They have defamed Christiananity
Great!
Can we discuss the fact that Solomon describes God in Proverbs 30:4 ?
He does it in the exact same manner as the sumerians would depict the Anunnaki deity Enki from a planet called Nibiru.
With a garment of flowing waters.
Why does Solomon do that?
say you are of the "way " instead of christian , i think thats what the early church was called
thanks for your videos i appreciate you
Pastors calling Christians snarky for reading their Authorized King James and learning corporate pastor don't exist, and they certainly don't get paid.

Acts 4
I want you to know I really like and agree with most of your content. The premise of this episode is spot on. But I have a question about Micah 6:3. I understood you to say that God was wearied but my reading seems to say that "His people" were wearied. Maybe this was just a mistake and if it was don't worry, I make them all of the time. I wouldn't normally point out such an thing on a public forum but I don't know how to ask you privately. I live in a spiritual desert and truly wish I had a good congregation to be associated with but I find myself meeting in my home with a few, very few, other believers and most of them can't be counted on. Pray for me and keep up the good teaching.
There's one thing I can testify to that I know for a fact the Lord God spoke to me in answer to a prayer. Early into my coming into the saving faith of God's grace I was witnessing a hurt man act out on his pain. I asked the Lord from my heart what shall I do to be a help to him. And in that moment it felt like my body was no more and in power and love I felt and heard a voice say MERCY. It was over as quick as it happened and I still remember the reverberations that went through my body and the flash of light that seemed to be shielded by my flesh broducing a redish golden glow that appeard when I felt myself snap back into reality. So that's exactly what I did, I showed this angry hurt man mercy and in time it proved to be exactly what he needed. That man was my grandpa and after that day he began to tell me he loved me every time we parted ways and before then he never did.
I really think there's 2 classes of people, those who call for mercy and those who call for judgement.
You are JESUS CHRIST pearl in the world I thank my FATHER for you HE is going to reward you and your wife with never knowing this world without each other you'll see❤
AMEN!
Can't dispel satan in the ways of satan.
It sounds like it’s saying God is asking how he has wearied them? Like what is so hard about what I ask?
hello, i wanted to know what, benefits, their is for a resident of ecosia? how may we acquire?
Some Christians argue that Jesus got mad at the merchants of the temple, so even He bestowed wrath upon these people, righteously. Therefore, some Christians think that some internet situations require the same actions, like they were in some kind of crusade or something. We think that we are as better as Jesus to justify our anger and unleash our wrath upon people for our disagreements or mistakes. There are some passages on the New Testament that are badly interpreted in such a way to justify being unforgivably harsh to others at internet.
Happened to me many times, right before I was about to post a comment, then I read it and realized how terribly I was behaving, how poorly I was representing Christianity, then I deleted everything just to re-write with a kind heart, relieved for taking notice before it was too late.
I pray to God to never lose myself to this bitterness and anger that can easily come by interacting in the internet. I always ask, in my prayers, for God to give me a good loving heart, a better heart, because I fear, deep in my being, being swallowed by darkness and losing the capacity to love, bit by bit. It's a dreadful feeling, specially because I hurt so many people by being explosive at my past.
thanks for your honesty Michelle
It’s true that we can all jump on the judgmental bandwagon, and that should not be.
But it’s also true that NOT everyone online who says that they are Christian or claims to represent Christianity, are actually believers. Some are enemy plants doing what they are appointed to do which is to argue and cause division.
An unconverted, evil heart, will say evil things.
Luke 6:45 - A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
My ex friend became very prideful and very critical of my relationship with God. Satan used her against me. Now I am trying to become stronger with God by reading the Bible I've neglected over the years. Satan almost destroyed me, but it backfired on him. I thank God for helping me see the prideful sin of my ex friend and he warned me to stay away. And I took the hint.
Amen
Catholicism vs Relativism
I'm guilty...
That’s exactly why I withdrew myself and my beautiful wife did also from social media PERMANENTLY! I know I have strong brothers and sisters in Christ that can get on there and be a blessing to others on the social media platforms, but I can’t do it I get convictions and find myself having to bridle my mouth. I’ve been getting involved in soul winning and talk face to face with people because they have a little more respect to your face and so do I. Honestly when people see me they think twice before they offend me until they realize that beyond all the tattoos and rough look I have do to my past they see that I’m just a big ol teddy bear and that’s when they mistakenly think that I am just a big ol push over or something but I’ll be honest when I’m seriously disrespected I stand up for myself I ain’t afraid to defend myself one bit but I also do it with grace and I try to stay patient and watch myself when I react but that’s only because of the Holy Spirit. I wasn’t always that easy to deal with. But amen brother I love when you teach it’s absolutely always a big huge blessing to hear you preach and teach the word of our precious Lord.
defend yourself then walk away
I was about to write to you not to withdraw from the world even from social media; for how then can we reach others but you write that you indeed meet people in the face to face "arena." I appreciate your honest expression of your walk and honoring of the Holy Spirit. I think that the bible can defend us adequately. A fruit of the spirit is self-control :) :) :)
@@booyaka870 thank you soo much for responding to me I was just recently injured on the job, I almost became paralyzed permanently but by the grace of God it was temporary so I’ve been temporarily absent from our outreach on Saturdays to try and win souls to Christ but I’m literally waking up tomorrow morning and heading out to the field to serve our Lord and proclaim the Gospel to my community. I go door knocking with my brothers and sisters in Christ and boy we got boots on the ground out here it’s a blessing to serve others and to serve our Lord I’m addicted to it.
@@Lauren-vd4qe yes ma’am, I sure do try and be as loving as possible. It takes quite a bit to get me in the defensive mode but like I said I try and be as graceful and peaceful as possible. But I will not be violently attacked without a fight. I hope that I never have to be in a position where I’d need to use self defense but it’s always a possibility out here my community is starting to fill up with satanists and lgbtq+ individuals that absolutely hate the Lord and I’ve even had a young lady growl at me in the grocery store while I was checking out my food because I was wearing a crucifix logo on my ball cap, and homosexuals mistreat me at the store who were both employees of a major company. So I’m in prayer constantly here and it wasn’t till after Covid that it started getting progressively worse. Before quarantine this town was VERY Christian and peaceful.
i agree; be at peace with all men as much as it is within you. but even Christ was no pussy! he overturned the market tables in the temple and lashed them with a whip! talk about kicka$$ eh!! @@JacobAnaya369
Mocking other christians for being mockers and so doing evil for evil is like everyday culture I hope will end in the christian world but only remain in the non-christians of which it should be expected because they do not have the hope we have. So be merciful to them; the wrath of God looms over them. Show them mercy. As for other christians: rebuke them but in a loving way that could be expected to generate repentance. What is the point of fruitless complaining about other people?
I've been calling it snobby christianity which is not pulling people toward Jesus Christ for sure
Amen 🙏
The reason God's displeased with us, #MichaelPeral, is because we didn't hear Jesus say "He Is the Way, Truth and Life that gets us to the Father" paraphrased. So all we need to do is study the Life and Teaching of God through Jesus and follow Them so God will be Pleased with us!!!
Bless you Michael and your wife that's exactly what happens when you watch the news 🙏⛺🙌🤍
In 1 Corinthians 13, it says if you do something without love it is nothing.
“...avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:” --1 Timothy 6:20
When encountering the vain babblings of the Theory of Evolution --humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor, we should focus not on pointing out how stupid and absurd it is, being called science when it is no such thing, but preach Christ crucified. When someone has a black blanket over their head denying the moon exists, rather than argue with the person that there is a moon, share the gospel and pray the Holy Spirit will yank that blanket off their head. We do not have the power to argue enough to remove the blanket. Only the Holy Spirit can remove it allowing that person to see the truth.
amen
