Ask Pastor John
Episode: 1749

[IsaiahEli]

God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!

Epic work always, so helpful. Praise God and thank you all. God bless us all and bless God. Hallelujah. 🕊
I'm listening sometimes more than once, it really helps me as do your other bible teachings "Look at the Book".
It's incredibly supportive as I grew up with little understanding, but now when I hear the truth somehow, by His loving grace I know it. And even when I don't fully understand your guidance helps me clarify.
THANK YOU.
HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH!

“Feeding the sin of pride instead of subduing the power of sin” 🔥

This is so good, I am studying a science degree but I don't know how to glorify God in it?

The church not need more christian philisophers. It needs more uncompromising preachers of the gospel.

"How Can I Avoid Worldly Thinking in My Studies?"

What a question kind Sir...(Sorry for the VERY long "comment". But I believe it NEEDS to be espoused) Now...

It is very Difficult; if satan is allowed to constantly take our thoughts off Christian things; and think only about "Worldly Thinking". Not to mention, that satan HAS the 2nd most power; there will ever be...until "Judgment Day".

Thus All; even consecrated "Born Again" Christians; are prey to satan's evil "desires" through our beings. So what can WE do to stop satan; from winning every time? Wow! What a Question kind Sir and Brethren...

For the sad answer is: we can NOT do it! Oh indeed. But...Jesus, who IS God, Can and WILL do it; IF...we pray sincerely to Him; asking Him...

Matthew 6:13* Dear Jesus; Please remove satan's constant "Temptational Desires", and deliver us from satan's repetitive evil "tricks": For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Then, and ONLY then, will satan lose! However, we must sincerely pray that "Holy" bequest often; until we die. Because satan NEVER gives up! Dadgum that "ole devil"!

End of Story and I rest me case...

...In any case kind Sir and Brethren, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!

* I "paraphrased" that verse; because it was a poorly translated verse; by the UK "Translators" in 1611 AD (AKA: KJV bible). For no body talks today (even in the UK) like they did 411 yrs ago in England. So I re-translated the verse; like I believe Jesus meant it to be. Praise His Holy Name. And forgive me if I erred. For...

I did this, because MANY Christians believe; that Jesus "tempts us" to sin; in that verse. Oh yes. And that is a LIE. But the verse CAN be interpreted that way; in the way we talk and understand today. Sad, but true.

There is nothing wrong with philosophy per se. It's just that the vast majority of philosophy doesn't say: 'God is God and Jesus Christ is Lord'. And anything that doesn't say this is starting in completely the wrong place. And if it starts in the wrong place, its conclusions will very probably be wrong too.

[josephcatsanchez]

There is no place in the church for worldly philosophy, we don't undermine the world of God

Does this ‘feeding the sin of pride’ apply to brothers and sisters who proclaim their fellow heirs of the Kingdom as being unloving for failing to get the vaccine? Hearing shepherds like Dr. Piper push against Christ’s children, who have been burdened with an unnecessary yoke for rejecting such worldly advice that Piper, the CDC, and corrupt elitists have been exalting, have caused many of my fellow believers to drop out of teaching from men who used to be faithful to our King. Avoiding worldly thinking, at this point, would be to avoid Dr. Piper’s teaching that is saturated more with leftist talking points than with the pure and cleansing Word.

[Josh-hety]

I wish John Piper would apply this line of thought to the age of the earth
