And on top of that you should never stop attend church because you don't want to be corrected buy your pastor yes sometimes your pastor ain't perfect but at the same time if this is the person that God put in your life to lead you out of bondage and also trying to do what God told him to do as in giving you the message so you can work on getting right with the Lord then you should listen because at the end of the day he will have to give a count to God on why he didn't do x y and z so I say that you should do your best to respect your pastor because God ordained him or her to lead you on to the lord
@fabian ~ ABSOLUTELY ! Everything starts at home with Two ‘adults’ who should've gotten their spiritual lives right....FIRST (Sadly that example is only right.in.THEORY...) goes downhill from there.

Correct! Church is for worshiping the Lord. Perhaps this preacher should consider how he has been presenting God’s Word and how that affects the congregation’s attention. Or maybe just a short statement about not interfering with the worship service.
Excellent Job, Pastor! He is speaking truth! He’s addressing what happens in so many American churches. We need more of this kind of boldness in our pastors!
100% agree! Parents are definitely enabling this generation. Now, they think they can behave any way they want to… inside and outside of church. Call it out, Pastor!
When me and my brothers didn’t listen to my mother we got dam near killed. My friend’s mothers were even more brutal. Parents are soft nowadays and that’s why children don’t have respect.
Amen, he preached the gospel truth about sin, and this, youngsters generation, is disobedient and refuses to learn or listen to right correction. It happened when ,I'm driving my tour bus , the parents are not telling or teaching them at home . And the school teacher are letting them have they're way on the tour bus .
All I'm gonna say is - if he's gonna call out the young girls about being inappropriate, he's gotta call the boys out for the same thing. It takes 2 to tango. They BOTH wrong. Us as men need that accountability too.
Agreed, both are wrong. As men we sometimes don't want or like to hear the truth. I would argue men are supposed to be spiritual leaders, and should be held to a higher standard even if they're still boys and aren't yet married to, or are in an adult relationship with the girl. Women and girls need to act appropriately in and outside the church, but boys and men need to set the example and lead the way.
Agree with that pastor 100%. Hope the responsible parents for the 'wilding' teenagers can accept the rebuke and appreciate a pastor that can tell them the truth when he called them enablers.
I love everything he said and how he said it because people have become to soft and lost the reverence for God and the house of God. Tough love and tough reprimand is very much needed most of the times
It's not soft to calmly call them out and speak the truth. Did he address them before hand? He may have but I have doubts about that. It's rare that they do and it's not biblical to do it this way. People are forgetting there are steps to church discipline and it doesn't have to get to this point. He was right about a lot of it but this seemed fueled more by pride than it having to with reverence for God.
The Bible states open rebuke is better than secret love, so you’re incorrect on that statement the problem with adults is that they don’t know the scriptures God’s house is to be reverence
💯 Agreed with everything he said and the tone he used. You can tell this is an ongoing issue where neither parents or children aren’t listening and don’t care.

I agree Beverly! People are very unstable these days. Look at the church shootings! People do not want to be called out for any reason! A church meeting going over rules and procedures is the way to go! Great comment by the way! Have a great day!❤😊
Honestly, I have no problem with the Reverend! Say what you mean and mean what you say! Sounds like the youths have tested him long enough, and soft hands tactics seemingly have not worked, so he's going to speak to them directly! Rev. Is covertly speaking to their parents because he's blasting their kids, 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
He said it right, in the right tone. Remember what's happening in our communities. He's talking to parents as well. Believe me, I had a father like that. Best birth control, no back talk, guilt by association, and curfew by his design. These kids are not in church or school and fights break out at graduations, libraries, and everywhere else. Theft is normal, and there is no such thing as homework or chores. He's on target. "Come as you are, not do as you want."
I agree with the rebuking and teaching the youth the fear of The Lord, that fornication still a sin and will always be, no problem with him except; embarrassing a young man in front of everyone, he is not the father of that child and even so and the other his language and tone.
exactly. he is very religious and very strict type of man, he probably was the same way with his children. he went too far. and kissing and hugging is not fornication,. they were in love and they love the Lord and they like coming to church, and maybe it was kind of courtship, but i agree they could do that outside. but u dont threaten God's children being kicked out and grabbed . its insane. u dont use force on your own brothers and sisters, jsut bcz they were kissing , , Jesus died for them so they could love him and serve him and live for him. not for u to thrown them the HELL out of the church. go and talk to them in person, after, and explain them what u didnt like. with respect and in love ,. not like a furious outraged pastor. what kind of example he is if he talks and behaves like that? good grief. its very very wrong and inappropriate coming from a pastor.
@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170 people are more inclined to listen with real stern calm truth rather than being screamed at. This way of doing things has never been affective
@@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170 really? its his job to criticize parents and call them dumb and stupid and their kids idiots and messed up? are u for real brother? his job is to preach not to educate their kids and threaten with eviction those who dont pay attention to him. his behavior is scandalous to say the least. he is suppose to be nice and polite and to walk in love. haven u read 13 Corinthians or about the qualifications of a pastor? what is wrong with u? do u even have kids? would u still sit there if he was calling u out as a parent and tell u in ur face that u act dumb and stupid and call ur kids idiots and messed up? u gotta be kidding me.
We don’t know what lead up to this. Spending 40 hrs a week preparing for a sermon, phew sounds like this had to be said. 🙏🏼 I agree with what was said 💯 maybe he allowed his flock to do as they wanted and now brought correction and order.
I’ve visited his Church in person. He took me out to a local buffet afterwards and bought me lunch. Dr. Kidd is the real deal, super hospitable, but too many people in our modern generation can’t handle is blunt/direct personality.
As a teenager myself I agree to what is he saying too, because these parents don’t want to discipline their kids and when their children get older and start be some Bad influence then they want play like their children is good children 😑
I think he should have spoken to the parents and had them correct this issue. If they were unwilling to help he could have easily spoken to the children themselves beforehand.
I was thinking the same thing but I knew someone who would say I am going to whip the “hell” out of my children so they don’t end up there. She meant whipping hell (evil) out of them literally.
2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. That the man of God may be perfect throughly furnished unto all God works.
As a serious student of the Word, using my phone as a Bible has been a game-changer when listening to sermons in church. Having immediate access to the Hebrew and Greek study tools allows me to verify the points that are being made by the preacher, recognize thematic connections, better understand the passages, and interact more effectively with the text. When a preacher has not done his job (drawing out and applying what is in the text), I can use the phone to do that myself, and simultaneously interact with his points, instead of sitting there bored and wishing there was some meat to chew on. I would not attend a church that prohibited cell phones. Instead of making legalistic, man-made rules about phones, or insulting the intelligence of people who bring them, churches should be training people to use their phones properly for the immense benefits they offer, and also turn off notifications, and just exercise some very simple self-control. It's not that difficult, and if it is, make rules for the people who need them, not against the people who actually benefit from using an available tool.
We did just fine without cell phones in the past. I don’t even use commentaries anymore. The only One who knows how to rightly divide The Word of Truth, is the Spirit of Truth…The Holy Spirit! The author Himself.❤
@@michelleruffin6903 I do not disagree. I have also learned that the Holy Spirit often confirms things to us through other believers, both present and historical (including the Biblical authors themselves, right? After all, He used human agency in giving us the Bible, i.e., He did not speak the words to us audibly from the heavens, at least in most cases), and I have also found the likelihood of hearing Him incorrectly is magnified when I am studying in isolation. Moreover, how is the Holy Spirit to help us "rightly divide" if we have not done the part He commanded earlier in that verse as a prerquisite: "Study to show yourself approved"? Understanding historical context, original languages, etc. is one side of the equation; praying and seeking the Spirit's direction is the other.
I love being able to easily look at the hebrew/greek words, and have more understanding on what is being said. Phones have both positives and negatives. Just like, the preacher uses a "one liner" without context, you can google search the 'one liner' and find out both where in the scripture it's from AND what the surrounding context of it is. Preachers way too often use one-liners completely out of their actual meaning in context of the surrounding text.
@@user-zl5yp7nj8m The one I used most is called "Literal Word," but I also like Blue Letter Bible and Step Bible. Each one has its own advantages, but Literal Word is the favorite for ease of use. Hope this helps!
Where is your Bible? Take notes and study at home. While the preaching is going on you need to be listening and taking notes. Decider at home and then bring any questions to the preacher.
I know 1 Corinthians 7:35, Paul is talking about a husband and wife....but he says something that would apply here: "And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and so that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction." When you are in the house of God and in worship of him, treat him as holy....and before all people he must be glorified (Leviticus 10:3).
He's just as passionate as Christ was when he went into the temple & flipped over those tables, He's sick of the disrespect in God's House. I'm feeling this pastor.
He is right ! The church has lost its discipline, even supermarket have rules and we follow them We want to come to church and do whatever we please , because God is is merciful.
A pastor has to Sheppard , apart of the training is preventing this behavior from becoming. His anger is because things are happening that have grown past where he was comfortable.
When I get upset with my kids and start lecturing, I am aware there is a point where it is helpful and a point where I am indulging myself in expressing my outrage and indignation. The latter isn't helpful. I remind myself that "Man's anger doesn't produce the righteousness God desires". Whatever the situation was here, I gotta think there are more effective ways to correct this behavior than an angry rant from the pulpit. That feels a bit self-indulgent and lazy.
It's the delivery thats causing a lot of people to be upset. I learned a word in high school, and it's called TACT!. His words could've been seasoned with more grace. However, as you mentioned, more correction and teachings on this subject are needed throughout the body.
That PASTOR SPOKE WITH CONVICTION AND PASSION AND HE IS COMPLETELY ON TARGET IN TONE, ATTITUDE, WORD AND INSTRUCTION to the PARENTS! I AGREE IN EVERY ASPECT OF THIS MESSAGE!
I agree with your assessment Corey... this pastor should have prepared a sermon or sermons on the topic of being Holy and acting appropriately in the house of God. It would probably have better results than getting mad in the Pulpit 💁
Yes, he should have opened his Bible to passages that pertain to Christian behavior and talked -- not screamed at the congregation. I was raised in home with a lot of screaming. Being screamed at by a pastor during a service is absolutely unacceptable.
@levornspencer5752 @sirennoir, I said I agree with him. I said put a lil more peace in it bc he was clearly on the verge of CURSING. He is still supposed to control him self. He is not Jesus or God. Our Father in Heaven and our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ come with wrath. WE are to control ourselves. Give sound doctrine and correction, but do so with SOME sort of control. Be blessed😇
Bravo 👏🏾👏🏾 We need this more The Adults are guilty as charged. He is feed up . Yes he could have addressed it differently. He tried that, Do this was the next course of ACTION!
Matthew 7:1-3 Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
The foundation on which a congregation is built on must be solid!! If it was mess going on when it started, then it will continue to be mess occuring nonstop.... I'm sick of us thinking that the Church is supposed to allow all types of shenanigans in the name of "the church is a hospital" crap. The Church is the Bride of Christ! That's the way it MUST start, and that's the way it MUST function.. Pragmatic leadership and congregations go viral all the time because they have allowed so much to go on when it is supposed to be nipped at the bud, with Biblical teaching and TRUE discipleship and Church discipline.....
I think it was ok how the Pastor dealt with it, but than dealing with it another way may have been good too. I was Born Again late in life and no church training in family whatsoever. Same for my husband and we have allowed certain liberties with our children and now face the consequences. So many things I’m still learning and know if I had a chance to do it all over again, I now know how things would go. Too late for me but I am so thankful God has been so good and patient with me.🔥
many pastors will not do this because they are counting money;meaning,every person coming to the church is a financial deposit.Therfore if they rebuke certain people and they dont come back the money count is less and bills have to be paid, be it rent mortgage.deacons salary,utility.. This is bad for their business as the church now has a decline in membership and the people who left starts bad mouthing the pastor to the community this equal no new members..This is the reason the false pastors are not taking a stance on sin and calling out the sinful to observe righteousness.
I wouldn't have come back as a youth. I think back to my childhood and teenage years and I mean most of the time I was only in church because of family or friends. That's something preachers also have to take into consideration. Most of these young people are only there because they have to be and not because they're actually saved. Otherwise they wouldn't be acting out like that or having their attention elsewhere. I mean, goodness, I brought Harry Potter books in the church with me and most of the time took naps during the preaching. Now would I do that as a born again Christian? Never! But that was before I was saved. I just think he could've handled this differently instead of going off and calling people out. He could've prepared a sermon for another service to address that issue. He could've talked privately to the parents and given his youth Pastor the opportunity to also address this issue with the teens. There's so many ways he could've gone about this than how he chose to in the end. You're not really going to hear someone when they're yelling at you. And instead of inviting holy conviction, it invites condemnation. But that's just my two cents.
I was in Sunday service a couple weeks ago. A young lady and a young man along with her mother was visiting. They were there before, but he was all over her in front of me. I had to bring it to the usher’s attention who wasn’t paying attention. They left shortly after that, but that upset me so much. That goes for older people as well.
The problem with this is hypocrisy. If you're gonna call out inappropriate sexual behavior, you MUST also call out the liars, gossips, and adulterers in the crowd. There are no "minor" sins in God's eyes.
John 19:11 1 John 5:17 Scripture is clear that not all sin is equal. There is sin that is "greater" and there is sin that "does not lead to death" therefore 'minor'.
I grew up on this kind of preaching and church etiquette and godly reverence. It grieves me to see the irreverence of adults in the sanctuary, let alone their children running around the sanctuary and the pulpit, esp when it's the pastor's kids. (Yes, I've witnessed that.) When you truly love and revere God, you will behave accordingly obeying His commands on how to approach Him. Nadab and Abihu are a perfect example of what not to do.
I like this pastor, tell it how it is, if kids want to go to church just to say hey God i went to church now bless me and they live like devil's, I'm sure the only ppl offended at this are lukewarm on a hot day.
Wow. I’m just impressed by the fact he said he spends 40 hours per week preparing. He’s a real one for that, because no leader I know expends that type of time. They treat the Word as a side chick and only open it a couple of hours or so right before they give their typical topical narcigesis message. I don’t have an opinion about the other stuff.
I totally agree with the Pastor! That Pastor probably has slow walked them in the past and he has spoken to the parents and it as done no good. So he is telling them what he expects since the parents are scared to tell their children. I feel his talking to the entire congregation. I appalled that pastor. Our Father is HOLY and they are treating his like a side piece. No reverence at all.!
One thing for sure, more pastors like him can’t hurt.
He went to fare! To fare in telling the truth and being a real pastor that ain't in the pulpit farting out a feel good msg, no need for a watered down msg of salvation.

He said it right, in the right tone. Remember what's happening in our communities. He's talking to parents as well. Believe me, I had a father like that. Best birth control, no back talk, guilt by association, and curfew by his design. These kids are not in church or school and fights break out at graduations, libraries, and everywhere else. Theft is normal, and there is no such thing as homework or chores. He's on target.
"Come as you are, not do as you want."
I agree with the rebuking and teaching the youth the fear of The Lord, that fornication still a sin and will always be, no problem with him except; embarrassing a young man in front of everyone, he is not the father of that child and even so and the other his language and tone.
Nothing wrong with what I heard, being all nice and polite to Luke warmers won't get fare.
exactly. he is very religious and very strict type of man, he probably was the same way with his children. he went too far. and kissing and hugging is not fornication,. they were in love and they love the Lord and they like coming to church, and maybe it was kind of courtship, but i agree they could do that outside. but u dont threaten God's children being kicked out and grabbed . its insane. u dont use force on your own brothers and sisters, jsut bcz they were kissing , , Jesus died for them so they could love him and serve him and live for him. not for u to thrown them the HELL out of the church. go and talk to them in person, after, and explain them what u didnt like. with respect and in love ,. not like a furious outraged pastor. what kind of example he is if he talks and behaves like that? good grief. its very very wrong and inappropriate coming from a pastor.
@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170 people are more inclined to listen with real stern calm truth rather than being screamed at. This way of doing things has never been affective
@@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170 really? its his job to criticize parents and call them dumb and stupid and their kids idiots and messed up? are u for real brother? his job is to preach not to educate their kids and threaten with eviction those who dont pay attention to him. his behavior is scandalous to say the least. he is suppose to be nice and polite and to walk in love. haven u read 13 Corinthians or about the qualifications of a pastor? what is wrong with u? do u even have kids? would u still sit there if he was calling u out as a parent and tell u in ur face that u act dumb and stupid and call ur kids idiots and messed up? u gotta be kidding me.
These same kids that you try to talk soft to will cuss you clean out. These kids are not fragile and sometimes they need a stern lecture.
We don’t know what lead up to this. Spending 40 hrs a week preparing for a sermon, phew sounds like this had to be said. 🙏🏼 I agree with what was said 💯 maybe he allowed his flock to do as they wanted and now brought correction and order.
I’ve visited his Church in person. He took me out to a local buffet afterwards and bought me lunch. Dr. Kidd is the real deal, super hospitable, but too many people in our modern generation can’t handle is blunt/direct personality.
Good, old-school holiness, fatherly instruction.
As a teenager myself I agree to what is he saying too, because these parents don’t want to discipline their kids and when their children get older and start be some Bad influence then they want play like their children is good children 😑
I think he should have spoken to the parents and had them correct this issue. If they were unwilling to help he could have easily spoken to the children themselves beforehand.
What is the problem wirh addressing INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR?? No problem with it🙏
If I even thought of doing anything inappropriate in church my mother would give me that look. Her look was lethal, even from across the room.
Him saying, “slap the H out of them” is profanity. I do agree with everything that he is saying because it needs to be ordered in the house of God.
Correct!! He used curse words in the pulpit!! Not good!!!
He probably should've said "slap the devil out of them" huh
I came to post this exact comment. His message is good but I don't come to church to hear cursing from the pulpit.
I was thinking the same thing but I knew someone who would say I am going to whip the “hell” out of my children so they don’t end up there. She meant whipping hell (evil) out of them literally.
That's not profanity...The bible speaks of Hell. So your comment is correct!
Yep, I don’t have a problem with what he said or how he said it.
I agree that this should have been dealt with long before. I guess he probably mentioned it quietly, now it was time to put everybody on blast.
The oppressor is teaching the oppressed. In other words it starts at home. This Pastor is right. 🙏🏾
Seemed a bit unhinged but I mostly agree.
2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. That the man of God may be perfect throughly furnished unto all God works.
Being unhinged doesn’t help certainly
@@levornspencer5752wow use the Bible out of context more please
As a serious student of the Word, using my phone as a Bible has been a game-changer when listening to sermons in church. Having immediate access to the Hebrew and Greek study tools allows me to verify the points that are being made by the preacher, recognize thematic connections, better understand the passages, and interact more effectively with the text. When a preacher has not done his job (drawing out and applying what is in the text), I can use the phone to do that myself, and simultaneously interact with his points, instead of sitting there bored and wishing there was some meat to chew on. I would not attend a church that prohibited cell phones. Instead of making legalistic, man-made rules about phones, or insulting the intelligence of people who bring them, churches should be training people to use their phones properly for the immense benefits they offer, and also turn off notifications, and just exercise some very simple self-control. It's not that difficult, and if it is, make rules for the people who need them, not against the people who actually benefit from using an available tool.
We did just fine without cell phones in the past. I don’t even use commentaries anymore. The only One who knows how to rightly divide The Word of Truth, is the Spirit of Truth…The Holy Spirit! The author Himself.❤
@@michelleruffin6903 I do not disagree. I have also learned that the Holy Spirit often confirms things to us through other believers, both present and historical (including the Biblical authors themselves, right? After all, He used human agency in giving us the Bible, i.e., He did not speak the words to us audibly from the heavens, at least in most cases), and I have also found the likelihood of hearing Him incorrectly is magnified when I am studying in isolation. Moreover, how is the Holy Spirit to help us "rightly divide" if we have not done the part He commanded earlier in that verse as a prerquisite: "Study to show yourself approved"? Understanding historical context, original languages, etc. is one side of the equation; praying and seeking the Spirit's direction is the other.
I love being able to easily look at the hebrew/greek words, and have more understanding on what is being said.
Phones have both positives and negatives.
Just like, the preacher uses a "one liner" without context, you can google search the 'one liner' and find out both where in the scripture it's from AND what the surrounding context of it is.
Preachers way too often use one-liners completely out of their actual meaning in context of the surrounding text.
@@user-zl5yp7nj8m The one I used most is called "Literal Word," but I also like Blue Letter Bible and Step Bible. Each one has its own advantages, but Literal Word is the favorite for ease of use. Hope this helps!
Where is your Bible? Take notes and study at home. While the preaching is going on you need to be listening and taking notes. Decider at home and then bring any questions to the preacher.
He is teaching the truth !
Foolishness is the heart of a child ; the rod of correction will drive foolishness far from them .
I know 1 Corinthians 7:35, Paul is talking about a husband and wife....but he says something that would apply here: "And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and so that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction." When you are in the house of God and in worship of him, treat him as holy....and before all people he must be glorified (Leviticus 10:3).
He's just as passionate as Christ was when he went into the temple & flipped over those tables, He's sick of the disrespect in God's House. I'm feeling this pastor.
He is right ! The church has lost its discipline, even supermarket have rules and we follow them
We want to come to church and do whatever we please , because God is is merciful.
A pastor has to Sheppard , apart of the training is preventing this behavior from becoming.
His anger is because things are happening that have grown past where he was comfortable.
I agree with him 100%!
When I get upset with my kids and start lecturing, I am aware there is a point where it is helpful and a point where I am indulging myself in expressing my outrage and indignation. The latter isn't helpful. I remind myself that "Man's anger doesn't produce the righteousness God desires".
Whatever the situation was here, I gotta think there are more effective ways to correct this behavior than an angry rant from the pulpit. That feels a bit self-indulgent and lazy.
As a parent I agree with your sentiments.
I really appreciated this comment! A nice reminder to me as a parent- thank you
It's the delivery thats causing a lot of people to be upset. I learned a word in high school, and it's called TACT!. His words could've been seasoned with more grace. However, as you mentioned, more correction and teachings on this subject are needed throughout the body.
That PASTOR SPOKE WITH CONVICTION AND PASSION AND HE IS COMPLETELY ON TARGET IN TONE, ATTITUDE, WORD AND INSTRUCTION to the PARENTS! I AGREE IN EVERY ASPECT OF THIS MESSAGE!
I agree with your assessment Corey... this pastor should have prepared a sermon or sermons on the topic of being Holy and acting appropriately in the house of God. It would probably have better results than getting mad in the Pulpit 💁
Yes, he should have opened his Bible to passages that pertain to Christian behavior and talked -- not screamed at the congregation. I was raised in home with a lot of screaming. Being screamed at by a pastor during a service is absolutely unacceptable.
The Bible states get angry but sin not, and also this was a Holy anger, God gives His leaders different approaches to delivery
People have no respect for the house of God anymore he will absolutely right what he said and we need more pastor and parents and Guardians like him😊
God said remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy.
😳💯✍️🏽i agree with him, but put a lil more peace in it lol😅
You are supposed to TRAIN the children to sit in Church. Mine kid is trained how to pray and sit still and stand up before the LORD.
Jesus stated think ye that I came to bring peace? I came not to bring peace but a sword
@levornspencer5752 @sirennoir, I said I agree with him. I said put a lil more peace in it bc he was clearly on the verge of CURSING. He is still supposed to control him self. He is not Jesus or God. Our Father in Heaven and our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ come with wrath. WE are to control ourselves. Give sound doctrine and correction, but do so with SOME sort of control. Be blessed😇
@@LitForChrist no I am agreeing.
@@levornspencer5752can you please try and take more Bible verses out of context, I’ve never seen anyone do it as much as you
Bravo 👏🏾👏🏾 We need this more The
Adults are guilty as charged. He is feed up . Yes he could have addressed it differently. He tried that, Do this was the next course of ACTION!
I agree with this pastor… situations are out of control in society… the parents clearly have not done their job… this is to them as well!
Matthew 7:1-3 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
I agree with that Pastor 100% we need more pastors to speak the truth
The foundation on which a congregation is built on must be solid!! If it was mess going on when it started, then it will continue to be mess occuring nonstop.... I'm sick of us thinking that the Church is supposed to allow all types of shenanigans in the name of "the church is a hospital" crap. The Church is the Bride of Christ! That's the way it MUST start, and that's the way it MUST function.. Pragmatic leadership and congregations go viral all the time because they have allowed so much to go on when it is supposed to be nipped at the bud, with Biblical teaching and TRUE discipleship and Church discipline.....
I think it was ok how the Pastor dealt with it, but than dealing with it another way may have been good too. I was Born Again late in life and no church training in family whatsoever. Same for my husband and we have allowed certain liberties with our children and now face the consequences. So many things I’m still learning and know if I had a chance to do it all over again, I now know how things would go. Too late for me but I am so thankful God has been so good and patient with me.🔥
God says let no corrupt thing come from your mouth. No means no. Much love ❤
Satan is the ruler of this world, and this thing is going to go down, down, down, until a rider on a white horse comes down from heaven.....
Any moment now
Yes,the parents dont say anything because they are on their phone too..Again, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH HIM
many pastors will not do this because they are counting money;meaning,every person coming to the church is a financial deposit.Therfore if they rebuke certain people and they dont come back the money count is less and bills have to be paid, be it rent mortgage.deacons salary,utility.. This is bad for their business as the church now has a decline in membership and the people who left starts bad mouthing the pastor to the community this equal no new members..This is the reason the false pastors are not taking a stance on sin and calling out the sinful to observe righteousness.
There is a code of conduct for everyone. NO EXCEPTIONS. PASTOR.
I wouldn't have come back as a youth. I think back to my childhood and teenage years and I mean most of the time I was only in church because of family or friends. That's something preachers also have to take into consideration. Most of these young people are only there because they have to be and not because they're actually saved. Otherwise they wouldn't be acting out like that or having their attention elsewhere. I mean, goodness, I brought Harry Potter books in the church with me and most of the time took naps during the preaching. Now would I do that as a born again Christian? Never! But that was before I was saved.
I just think he could've handled this differently instead of going off and calling people out. He could've prepared a sermon for another service to address that issue. He could've talked privately to the parents and given his youth Pastor the opportunity to also address this issue with the teens. There's so many ways he could've gone about this than how he chose to in the end. You're not really going to hear someone when they're yelling at you. And instead of inviting holy conviction, it invites condemnation. But that's just my two cents.
Appreciate a passionate pastor that calls out these things maybe it will help
I was in Sunday service a couple weeks ago. A young lady and a young man along with her mother was visiting. They were there before, but he was all over her in front of me. I had to bring it to the usher’s attention who wasn’t paying attention. They left shortly after that, but that upset me so much. That goes for older people as well.
Where are the church mothers and grandmothers? They would whisper the first warning and pop you the second in the name of Jesus. ❤
"I'll clean off this seat & lay down my holy ghost for a minute!" That was my Mama's scariest warning to a misbehaving child. 💯
The problem with this is hypocrisy. If you're gonna call out inappropriate sexual behavior, you MUST also call out the liars, gossips, and adulterers in the crowd. There are no "minor" sins in God's eyes.
This is one video love, we don’t know what he has/hasn’t called out. If he did this I’m sure he has went off multiple times 🤷🏾♀️
@@Tizzleee your right.
@@TizzleeeThank you
How do you know he is not
John 19:11
1 John 5:17
Scripture is clear that not all sin is equal. There is sin that is "greater" and there is sin that "does not lead to death" therefore 'minor'.
Good Job Pastor preaching what’s needed ❤
I grew up on this kind of preaching and church etiquette and godly reverence. It grieves me to see the irreverence of adults in the sanctuary, let alone their children running around the sanctuary and the pulpit, esp when it's the pastor's kids. (Yes, I've witnessed that.) When you truly love and revere God, you will behave accordingly obeying His commands on how to approach Him. Nadab and Abihu are a perfect example of what not to do.
Somebody gotta set the standard somewhere. Glad to see he taking a stand
I like this pastor, tell it how it is, if kids want to go to church just to say hey God i went to church now bless me and they live like devil's, I'm sure the only ppl offended at this are lukewarm on a hot day.
Wow. I’m just impressed by the fact he said he spends 40 hours per week preparing. He’s a real one for that, because no leader I know expends that type of time. They treat the Word as a side chick and only open it a couple of hours or so right before they give their typical topical narcigesis message. I don’t have an opinion about the other stuff.
Some adults have no reverence. It’s shameful
The phrase is Sam Hill but it sounds like he said Sam hell. On another note, he needs to be admonished for that ridiculous toupee 🤡
I totally agree with the Pastor! That Pastor probably has slow walked them in the past and he has spoken to the parents and it as done no good. So he is telling them what he expects since the parents are scared to tell their children. I feel his talking to the entire congregation. I appalled that pastor. Our Father is HOLY and they are treating his like a side piece. No reverence at all.!
Psalms 19:8
The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
He said what he said, and I agree. Nothing was wrong with his tone.
Great video. I respect church. God is watching. Great video.
