Ray was the reason I (erroneously) concluded I probably wasn’t saved. I was so thankful to find the work of GES. I searched the scriptures for myself now simply take Jesus at His word. He promises that the one who believes in Him for salvation HAS that salvation. Thank you, Jesus 🙏

I’ve been waiting for the GES reaction to Ray’s methods. Thank you for your clear and true message. ✝️

Ray Comfort does quote scripture, but he interprets it wrongly. No turning from sin on our part can ever gain us salvation from hell. It’s by faith in Jesus alone.

Rays been called out in the past for his lordship salvation stance and his front loading of the gospel methods.
He would tell people to turn from sin, stop sinning, make Jesus the Lord of your life; instead of just believing Jesus for salvation.

What's also sad about Ray Comfort's street preaching is that too many times, he's told the people like this man that they have to turn away from those sins to where they never commit them anymore in order to be saved and redefined repentance to mean that. That's why I nickname him Ray Discomfort.

1 John 3:3, everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.

I feel like you could even expand your thoughts on Rays evangelizing. Many many more videos of his to talk about. ❤

[mary-xkdc]

right we must believe in Jesus as God and saver, who died for our sins and we need to come to Jesus as God the Lord of all.

Its very difficult to find a church now days that doesn't say you have to repent and believe on Jesus for salvation. I think is a gross misunderstanding of the word repent and a shame that it has become such popular doctrine. Thank you for making this video, I couldn't agree more with you.

Ray comfort. Portrays himself as the one who holds Salvation in his Hand .

Thank you for warning us about the Wolves!!!

Thank you for covering Ray Comfort. I feel like a lot of his evangelizing and his position is very lordship/conditionalist leaning.

Ray wants them to be "cut to the heart" as were the people who heard Peter's sermon in Acts 2. Peter was harsh with them and told them, "God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah." Ray wants people to say, like Peter's audience, "What must we do to be saved?" It is my/our sin that sent Jesus to the cross. The more I see the incredible gap between my sin and God's holiness - the more I will be amazed at his grace...and the more I will live a repentant life.

[danielbu]

Without repentance there is no forgiveness of sins, Jesus said.

Salvation IS through faith alone, "saving faith" alone, but saving faith acts. Trust results in righteous action. Unbelief results in sin. Show me anything you do that doesn't change how you act.

To illustrate: if you say you believe that lifeboats save, but when your ship is sinking you refuse to get in one, I'm going to rightly conclude that you don't really believe it.

Because faith is misunderstood, the rest of the Good News is misunderstood. Those who practice sin will not enter the Kingdom of God.

[meganvance]

It would appear that Ray Comfort does not bring comfort.

[coltonlevi]

He doesn’t just say repent and believe now. He now adds “must turn from your sins” 💔
Some good news for ya ehhh… nope.

[jayheinz]

I enjoyed the video Dr.Wilkin.! To keep this short, Ray responded directly to me a couple months back, on his Andy Stanley video. when I confronted him on his Andy Stanley video and that its belief alone in Jesus for salvation and eternal life. And in the Gospel of John over 99 times it says only to believe in Jesus for eternal. Ray went on for quite a while and told me that faith is a work. So subsequently, I was promoting works.🙄

Ray Comfort once told a person that she had to trust in Jesus "and stop sinning" in order to be saved.

[johngodsey]

I wouldn’t be too harsh on ray for using the law to show someone why they need Christ. Actually that’s the use of the law, to bring us to Christ . Afterward, the Hs is our teacher right, from Hebrews ?

But would suggest that his message is incorrect in that instead of believing for eternal life, he would say believe, trust, repent .

That is what needs to be fixed. But many people need to see why they are fallen short

I spoke to a coworker about her abortion recently and she said “it’s not like it was a child yet. It’s not like it was killing a person”

And i had a deep honest discussion with her about it. We went through the law to show her that even not having an abortion, she like all of us, fall short .

And that made it possible to show her the need to believe in Jesus, the gospel, for salvation.
