  • When we choose to follow Christ, it is a matter of the heart that requires a total shift in thoughts and actions. Billy Graham explains more in this 1983 message from Orlando, Florida.

    The cost of following Christ is so high that it demands even your whole life to be surrendered to Him. But after all of this, it will be worth it.

      Amen. It is very costly. But worth the cost. The alternative is total emptiness, vanity, self-destruction , judgement, hell and ultimately the lake of fire for eternity.

    My Grandma use to listen to Billy Graham when I was a little boy and I didn’t understand the significance of his preaching…. So as a man of 68 I now listen to him and I’m floored at how powerful his preaching really is. I’m always seeking God and yes I repent and yes I’m not perfect as I will sin again but the difference is the Holy Spirit will speak to me when I’m tempted and so I will turn from sin….God Bless Everyone 😊

But in the last year I've spoken up and fought for God. The push back has been intense. I can see clearly that satan is the "god" of this world.

Psalm 24:1 says, “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it”. Therefore, it holds then that everything that happens in heaven or on earth is subject to God’s commands.

He gives EVERY HUMAN BEING a map of the way to behave on this planet, then it is everyone's choice to do good or bad. Not God's choice. Just the 10 commandments is a huge map of behaving in everyday life, if everyone followed the Commandments, life on this planet would be so different and so much better, but they choose not to follow the ways of the Lord.

    Living life without Jesus is not worth it. God's commandments protect us from destruction. We need wisdom and guidance and God always provides that when we put Him first in our lives. Repenting of our sins is admitting that we need guidance in the life, we dont know everything but disobeying God's commandments is being foolish and prideful, like rejecting a map that will guide you where you need to go. Most people will listen to friends, stock brokers, teachers before we seek God and that is the worst thing we can do. God created this world and He created everything in it including us so He loves us so much that He gave us His most wise commandments and He also gave His only son Jesus to come to this world, suffer because He could have just been in heaven, and die for our sins. God loves us and all we have to is turn to Him, confess our sins, and dont sin anymore. Life goes by so fast, look at all the people in the crowd this was 1983 wow many of those people are gone. How long will life last? Definitely not 1000 years so it is foolish to disobey God and be prideful and put our trust in anything in this world because it will all be gone so it is practically worthless. Obey God's commandments, repent of your sins, and you will spend eternity in heaven with God. God bless you all in Jesus' holy name!!!!!

      Have you understood the breadth of the earth?
      Declare, if you know it all.
      Where is the way to the dwelling of light?
      And darkness, where is its place, that you should take it to its boundary, and know the paths to its home?
      Do you know?
      For you would have been born then, and the number of your days been many!
      Have you entered into the storehouses of snow, or have you seen the storehouses of hail, which I have kept for the time of distress, for the day of fighting and battle?
      Where is the way that light is divided, or the east wind scattered over the earth?
      Who has cleft a channel for the overflowing water, or a way for the thunderclaps, to make rain fall on land where no one is, a wilderness in which there is no man; to satisfy the wild and waste places, and to make the seeds of grass to sprout?
      Does the rain have a father?
      Or who has brought forth the drops of dew?
      From whose belly comes the ice?
      And who gave birth to the frost of the heavens?
      The waters harden like stone, and the surface of the deep is frozen. Do you bind the bands of Kimah, or loosen the cords of Kesil?
      Do you bring out the constellations in its season?
      Or do you lead the Bear with its sons?
      Do you know the laws of the heavens?
      Or do you set their rule over the earth?
      Do you lift up your voice to the clouds, so that floods of water cover you?
      Do you send out lightnings, and they go and say to you, ‘Here we are!’?
      Who has put wisdom in the inward parts?
      Or who has given understanding to the heart? Who has wisdom to count the clouds, or to tip over the bottles of the heavens, when the dust hardens in clumps, and the clods cling together?
      Do you hunt the prey for the lion, or satisfy the appetite of the young lions, when they crouch in dens, sit in the cover of their hiding place?
      Who provides food for the raven, when its young ones cry to Ěl, and wander about without food?”
      And etc .....
      ‭‭Iyoḇ (Job)‬ ‭38:2-41‬ ‭
      Please answer all of these questions for me.

      @@infinityinfinityinfi I think the hard cost is for someone who is prideful and self serving to truly deny oneself and follow God than self.

    If you've ever been to the 'Stations of the Cross' in a Catholic Church, you know during Lent, how Jesus' sufferings, crucifixtion, death, resurrection and ascension is brought to life. There's not a dry eye to be found. It is very powerful, as you move from station to station, seeing what Christ did for us, being savagely bludgeoned, as He carried His own cross to Calvary, was nailed to the cross, suffered horribly, then succumbed, thinking His Father had forsaken Him. He willingly suffered and died for us so that our sins would be forgiven and that we could spend eternity with Him in heaven. He is our Father and we are all His children, but look at the mess we're in right now. How disappointed He must be, but all we have to do is ask Him for forgiveness for our sins. He is always close by us just waiting for us to reach out.

    THE HIGH COST OF FOLLOWING CHRIST
    “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels. (Luke 9:23‭-‬26 NIV)
    Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.” (John 14:21 NIV)

  • @ZeroGravity60
    @ZeroGravity60 Před 2 lety +1

    When we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and we believe in our heart that God raised him from the dead, we become a believer. But it's only when we read and study the Bible, confess and repent/turn from our sins to the absolute best of our ability, and enter into serious daily prayer [conversation with God] only then are we saved. Jesus himself said, "only those who do the will of my father shall be saved." Believing in Jesus is not enough. A one-on-one personal and active relationship is what's required. So many churches today fail to stress this point. So many Sunday morning Christians are in for a rude awakening. Jesus said to the self-proclaimed Christians at the gate, "Go away, I never knew you." We all know Jesus but does Jesus know you? Salvation is a free gift but only to those who have built or are in the process of building a personal and intimate one-on-one relationship with him. Don't be fooled. It's hard work to be a true Christian but his reward is both immediate and eternal. Thank you Jesus.

    The message is still powerful, even after he has left. Thankyou Billy Graham for the reminder that we need to surrender our all to Jesus Christ.

    Ah yes
    The way to escape from every temptation
    It hurts taking the escape route.
    But that's one thing I need to learn myself,
    Take the pain.

    Watching this preaching in a moment when churches here in Brazil are closed because of the pandemic crisis. My heart is broken seeing this great public audience and the memories I have from the crusades and churches services I went and made part of. I believe that, bit by bit, we're walking toward those days in which our freedom to worship God whether in the churches or public places will reduce a lot. God is warning us about the importance of seeking for Him while we still have time, in the day we call "today." Unfortunately, today is too late for a lot of people not only here in Brazil but all over the world who didn't accept Christ as their Savior, and now are passing away due to Covid. May our God, The Almighty One, and our Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us and help us enjoy and rejoice in his presence for the next days or years that we still have.
