[joycemangione]

Hi thank you for these lectures I feel so privileged to be able to sit in your classroom you spoke of the word which means the glory has departed, I was in the church when I was a very young Christian when they booted out the pastor and members of his family said ichabod

[anthonyesparsen]

this teacher explains the bible openly in plain language to simple people like me and i get what he says wow what a blessing,

[anthonyesparsen]

yes very true i dont know this man personally but he is one of the best bible teachers on the face of this earth today, but i dont know his personal private life nothing to say there

[anthonyesparsen]

if david can make it and saul can make it than its lots easier for the rest of us to make it that have not killed gods innocent saints

[anthonyesparsen]

I may be a judgmental Christian but of course, I have not attained what I'm after

[anthonyesparsen]

no way would i tell eli what god said about his family no way would i have told him this let eli figure that out by himself

[anthonyesparsen]

look guys I can never agree that David was a good man even thou the bible says he started off on the right foot he ended in misery with his legacy, no way out of it, just put yourself in his victims place the king takes your mother gets her pregnant while your loyal honorable dad is serving his country with his life, and the king murders your dad to take your mom as a wife, well I dont care all the great things David at the start he failed in his life that's why his own family came out totally dysfunctional, its not how you start but how you finish David committed premeditated murder and adultery killing an innocent man of honor no David can never recuperate from this great evil he did
if he were to be on trial today in our time he would be a lifetime sentence, David name in my mind is a great failure even thou god forgave him he still committed a multitude of great satanic demonic sins, David turned out to be a little Hitler

[anthonyesparsen]

there are so many weak parents in the faith today thats why thier kids are spoiled and lost and have an entitled mentality, and i dont get this at all because we kids of my generation were not taught that at all we were taught to work for a living

[anthonyesparsen]

saul turned out to be a very bad human being and ruled way too long for all his bad sadistic ways

[anthonyesparsen]

whew saul starts off humble insecure and ends a big loser in life rejecting god all the time, i dont care if he was saved by the skin of his teeth at the end or not his legacy. sucks

[anthonyesparsen]

yup we have to be very careful with peoples outward appearances they can look humble but inside they are rotten to the core
