Shocking Youth Message Stuns Hearers -

Shocking Youth Message Stuns Hearers - So Shocking & Biblical the Preacher Was Never Invited Back
Listen to Audio Version Download Audio in MP3 click here Text Version click here (requires free Adobe PDF reader download) Download the Video To download the video, click here. It will take you to Media Converter website. Step 1 *************** You must watch this and listen *very carefully*. You won't regret it, trust me on this. PLEASE NOTE the longer you watch *AND* listen, the more serious and more CONVICTING the message becomes throughout the video message. Note: this is not to frighten you nor doubt your Salvation. Its merely a wake up call. Let the Holy Spirit convict you as you go in prayer in Jesus' name. *************** Matthew 7:12-16 The Golden Rule Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Matthew 7:22-26 Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name and driven out demons in Your name and done many mighty works in Your name? And then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly [disregarding My commands]. So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock. And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand. |

Actually, you will get a non-believer curious about God if you do something for them that they consider out of the ordinary...like going out of your way to help someone that doesn't expect it, than getting in someone's face and preaching to them. Eventually, they will wonder why you are doing whatever act and then you explain that you are doing God's work and how you were saved. Just my opinion, but I've found it to be a much better approach than what I call "aggressive witnessing". I have broken into some crowds that I would have no chance at with just preaching to them. I have a cross with the words "With God all things are possible" tattoo'd on my right arm. You will be amazed how many people come up to me and ask about it. Something as simple as a tattoo opened the door to me witnessing to a group of bikers. Since I have a tattoo (only the one) and a beard, I was one of them in a way....not some straight laced Christian geek that wanted to convert them. Funny how God works...... I will check out the clip tomorrow when I have an hour to spare and I'm not bashing you....just giving my opinion. In Him, Randy |

I don't believe in bible thumping either as a method, but I do believe in the absolute truth. This is not aggressive preaching, this is honest preaching for what the Word says. As for tattoos, I wont' start another giant topic on this. Use the search function in the Scriptural Answers forum for that.
You both did not listen to the message yet and you already aired your opinions. That's not so honest now is it? Had you even heard the entire message you would not have declared it bible thumping or anything else I was already accused of by you both. But I'm not surprised nor discouraged. GOD is working here to reach His children who listen. This message is not from me. Its GOD's message to His children. Save the opinions for someone else. GOD is speaking so do not try to get in His way. There are people who think they are saved when in fact they are living a horrible carnal lifestyle and are not truly saved. Read the Scriptures and you'll know what I am referring to. I'm not holding back on preaching this truth. That would be deadly to many lost and horrific on my part. This wake-up call is another awesome chance to reach those who are wrongly deceived by false preachers. Again, had you both even listened to the entire message you would comprehend what I'm talking about. But you ignorantly aired your opinion instead before listening. And you both did this on your very first post in this site. Go figure. |

I would like to thank you for the video.
I have often struggled with profesing Christians That do not have the convictions that I have or seem to know the word but there lives do not reflect it. I sometimes feel that I an judging them. I dont hear alot of preaching with such conviction and I have sent the video to some of my frinds to watch. I need conviction and I thank God for it. THX PS was not going to watch the hole thing but I just couldnt stop it.lol good stuff |

Two Natures -
04-01-08, 12:41 AM
Being born again is spiritual, and is not of this world. Unlike the first birth, that is to say; the birth, born to this earth, or of the Adamic nature (flesh), the second birth, or being born again (Spirit) is born of God and has nothing to do with the first birth or the birth born to earth.
In John 3:6 Jesus tells us: That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. These two, flesh and spirit cannot be mixed. When a person has received Jesus as Lord, and Savior, he or she is born again or a second time. Not as the world knows of birth, but as God knows. Not in man's sight, but in God's sight. Although the Believer has been born a second time or in the sight of God, he or she still possess the first, Adamic nature on earth (Rom. 7:23). These two, flesh and Spirit cannot be mixed. Herein lies the error of far too many people. Too often, people, especially church people struggle to try to blend Spirit to clean flesh. In Mark 2:21-22 Jesus offers examples of what mixing the new with the old would be. He said it would be like sewing a piece of new cloth on an old grment, etc. Far, too many people, often church people error in their attempt and zeal (Rom. 10:2) to prove to themselves and to the world they are changed on an earthly level. It could prove wise to always remember: a million years from now, flesh will be flesh, and Spirit will be Spirit. Too many people struggle to straighten up their earthly flesh. Romans 8:5 says: They that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. And "They that are after the flesh cannot please God (Rom 8:8). For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit, reap life everlasting (Gal. 6:7). |

Thank you Real1y and onewrite for your humble, kind responses. Amen to both your posts. Real1ty, I felt the same way. I did not think I would sit here for one hour to listen to the entire message, but I just could not turn it off. Now that is truly the power of the Holy Spirit.
Edit: thank you also Goose for your reply. GOD bless you all |

Response To Video -
04-01-08, 12:48 AM
Hi Chad,
I just want to thank you for giving me the link to watch this video...it was just awesome!!! I don't think this video is offensive at all, not to me anyway...I just know that by me watching this video, I am convicted to want to live a life as holy as humanly possible. The bible says be ye holy for He is holy...that is my hearts desire...I want Jesus to know me, not just me to know Jesus, and I want to live my life the way that Jesus wants me to live my life...this video stepped all over my toes, and I thank God that He loves me just the way I am, but that He loves me too much to leave me that way... I know this may seem simple and stupid...but I love the Lord, and after watching this video, I want to live a holier life for the Lord, and I want to be a spotless bride for the bridegroom... Again, thank you Chad for obeying God and sending this video to all of us...if you had not done this, I may have been one to cry Lord, Lord, thinking that I am saved, and all the while just decieving myself...thank you so much for sending this video out to those of us who will recieve it...God bless you Chad!!! In Christ, Tonya |
