Jesus talks to and can change anyone!!! He changed me too I was in gay marriage he spoke and spoke to me I left my marriage and lost everything home money car the lot but God provided all my needs benefits and home with adequate furniture 3 years later I feel I have been tested by fire and moulded to a fine diamond kinda I have a completely different viewpoint and transformed heart praise Lord he is talking to so many at this end time
This is profound and thought provoking. Clarity of the subject. I love that lack of condemnation and the search for understanding and compassion. Money isn't the root of all evil, it is self-fulfilling pride. I have listened to this 3 times and it is a favorite, so I will listen again.
I know she has full and complete faith I loved listening to This and have to pray to Jesus myself.her testimony is very good and I am very happy for her!y
This is one of the most compassionate , clear ,inspiring conversion accounts I've ever heard. Being a scholar myself, who is embedded in Christ's love, I could so relate to the need to overthink, rethink and analyse this 'faith thing'. I will share this with my church community as we navigate ways to love the gay community without fear, be accepting without compromising God's word and engaging without being argumentative. I also want to direct my gay friends and colleagues towards this as they search for wholeness, meaning and something 'more'. I strive to walk with my gay friends unconditionally without indeed 'making them projects'. The Church can and must do better than offering 'turn or burn' rhetoric and stop using often toxic hate where Christ's uncompromising love is what is needed. Thank you Prof Rosaria for embodying so much that I have been looking for and trying to direct many others too. You are a magnificent crown of God's glory. Thsnk you
God bless you abundantly. The Lord has shown me a better way... as I've been tormented with judging, criticizing and slandering, through the first 3 chapters of Romans. I asked Him so earnestly how do I not judge because for years it has plagued me, repenting continually of it and being ashamed. He said in 1 quiet moment that I need to catch myself when I start judging and turn it for good, yes to stop and pray (God's perfect will) for that person. Well, it's amazing this awesome "better way" that He has shown me. I'm seeing people from a totally different perspective. Humbling myself before the Lord is amazing. May the Lord extend your reach 🙏🙏🙏
Glory to God! But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
@Dem Lizabeth No, I am more of a homosexual who felt very offended because this woman began to say that homosexuality is bad and that she had been cured of it, and you?
This was truly a blessing, filled with so much knowledge, truth, compassion, and understanding which compels you to examine yourself. I thank God for giving you clarity, grace, and boldness to share your testimony. May He continue to richly bless as you continue to share the truth! I will be watching again
Maybe share the Episcopalian church with your struggling friend instead. They have a lesbian bishop who understands God's love is unlimited. We do not need to change god's love to fit it into our limited understanding.
In life, I knew that I can read something and interpret in my own way, and sometimes through others. So I wanted to hear everything from God, so my own understanding or others understanding would not get in the way of God's truth. So I kept quiet of my troubles from my friends and family and sought to have Him send me messages. These things never come immediately, but I hear the right things I need to hear- again, I do not say anything of my troubles so I can let God say things through others. It makes it tough when I feel I am against the world, and that even the world thinks they are speaking the word of Jesus.
Praise the Lord,thank God for such a intelligent Christian lady and for saving her,and that she may be truly blessed in the days and months and years ahead.And I pray for those that do not believe and trust in Jesus,will be under real conviction and may put there trust in God.I,ve been real blessed by all your talks.Keep up the good work,and may the Lord take care and bless you.Alan-Northern Ireland.
This is like the perfect sermon....uplifting and convicting! It is so richly filled with truth, it's difficult to grasp it all in one listening. Rosario has been blessed in so many ways, particularly her powerful intellect. May God continue to richly bless your ministry!
The bible says that those who are lead by the spirit of God are His children.....the bible says don't be a hearer but a doer of the Word.....all have fallen short of His glory...but don't call disobedience Gods 💘....lets stop trying to change the Word and instead let the Word of God change us....
Yes, stop trying to make the Bible anti-gay when Jesus never said that. Jesus said to love everyone so maybe you are letting your prejudice get in the way of that.
Isn't it Paul who writes this phrase in his letter to Romans? To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints? Isn't it James who writes the next phrase? Why do you say: "The bible says. .."?
Dear Rosaria, I love your story and the way that you tell it. All I can really do is to wish you a very warm welcome into the Body of Christ, Amen. With love from Simon
Thank you. God's grace is amazing. and yes, repentance is bitter-sweet. I feel blessed and saddened at the same time. The most powerful thing I took from this is that homosexuality is consequential and not causal. Makes perfect sense to me. God bless you.
But can you repent for it if you really mean it from the heart and you change you're self and never let you're self look at he same sex the same way ever again because you wanna be close to God and you don't want to go to hell ?
@@1liesenfelt Not to all heterosexuals. It makes sense to homosexuals (and heterosexuals) like Rosa who come to know Jesus intimately and give themselves to Him. Jesus is greater than the belief that your sexuality/status/bank balance/race/gender defines you.
@@pandiman1941 Your post was from 4 years ago. But, Yes, that's all God wants for everyone, to repent with your heart. That is a really hard burden to bare on your own, so pray to God for help. He likes to show people how much He loves them. How are things in your life now.
My Christian journey involved being Catholic, not practicing, returning and then leaving in sadness due to Pope Francis and heresy in the RCC. Now I'm wandering but Am not lost!
KM, how similar your story to mine! Keep your eyes on Jesus and The Holy Spirit will stop aimless wandering and guide you on the Truth. I'm praying for you ❤️ 🙏. Just remember: you've come too far to look back. God bless.
I wish I could thank Rosaria personally for this testimony. I've struggled with LGBT arguments about their rights to be LGBT. I never know how to respond except that God says it is sin. But hearing her talk about the root of sin, and that Homophobia is the same as Homosexuality, helped me better understand all sins. That the pride of life, lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes is the root. Thank TGC
Homophobia and homosexuality isnt the same, 1 is a choice to purposely HURT others and the other you're born as!! God wouldnt want anyone to be racist anymore than he would want anyone to be homophobic!!
This is the richest and most complete understanding of the nature of scripture, the nature of God and the nature of homosexuality that I have ever heard. Thank you for a testimony that is both deeply wise and articulate in its personal exposition.
Act 7:48 “However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says: The devil doesn't have to dress in sheep's clothing anymore. He's accepted in most so call churches
Rosaria, I am so grateful for you. Thank you for helping to guide me out of darkness. Are you still in Durham? I would love to meet you in person as I reside in Wake Forest. God bless you! ❤️
As scripture says, "ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN'...she is making us all understand, although homosexual sin is sinful, it is the fruit of unrighteousness...yielding our members as instruments of unrighteousness instead of righteousness...God's Will, God's Love, God's Holiness. His suffering and death and shed blood that cleanses us from sin and all unrighteousness is our only hope and salvation from all sin ! The only unforgivable sin is unbelief ! As Paul said, "Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6
Jerome Reiter, I'd like to see that scientific evidence, sir. I've been looking everywhere and can't find it. It doesn't exist. The only way to tell is by an act. There is absolutely NO SCIENCE that indicates that homosexuality is even a thing. The ONLY thing to indicate that is the action of sodomy(old definition; unnatural). So, you're the one trying to fit your worldview into an contradicting reality. If I'm wrong, show me the evidence. If not, then you've been desensitized, jammed, and converted. I encourage anyone who reads this to watch Dr. Voddie Bauchum's "Is gay the new black?". It is an excellent and factual teaching, and is very illuminating, unlike your unsubstantiated claims regurgitated from God only knows what source of propaganda. There's almost nothing that you said that is actually based in reality. I know people hate the bible but, you got to read SOMETHING! Crack a book, and quit getting your information from crackpot media outlets. Otherwise, show me the evidence. Because there is no such thing.
Penfire222ify Amen! The bible certainly does say those things. However, immediately before that verse is the one that says homosexuals, among others, will not inherit eternal life. So, we can draw from this, in the context of what Paul's saying, that it doesn't matter how we feel, or what our flesh is attracted to. Someone can very well claim to be born that way, and.. even though there is absolutely no science affirming that, it's still a non issue. It doesn't matter how we feel. The bible already describes our hearts as deceitful above all else. So, of course our feelings and nature would be inclined to sin. The only thing that matters is God's commands. The only thing that matters is His will. As sinful humans, we make the arrogant mistake of judging God on our perception of what we think reality should be. We're the problem! You don't get good answers from the problem. God is the solution. He is sovereign, not us. He is good. We are not. The bible has always been offensive to man. When the world starts agreeing with you, you know you've gone horribly wrong. Who cares what they say?! God is the authority... Not some human who doesn't even have 100 years under their belt. How arrogant of the fool who thinks he/she has the slightest inclination of having "figured it all out".
@@timwinn5834 Have you ever used the Google machine? A simple 2 second Google search will yield numerous results that showed sexual arousal in both the genitals and brain based on same sex imagery. You simply show that your lazy and ignorant.
Whatever else she was, she was intellectually honest as you can see in her testimony...so, if you want to know the Truth, you MUST be honest in your research to know the Truth..you MUST be willing to delve into the Holy Bible as she did, with honest searching, and see, as she did, the Living God that breathed out the words you will be reading !
1 Corinthians 6:9Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with menfn 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (She once WAS. Meaning she isn't anymore because she repented and turned away from the sin)
My one thought! Why is it when there is a disagreement with your life style that those who have another opinion automatically are hateful? I find that closeminded. The unitarian church is an activist church. That is ok. Your chosen life style is ok. You are allowed to choose. I take the scriptures seriously. I believe in the canon of scripture. When someone is living a life style that goes against the scriptures in love I pray for them. I do not hate them. My prayers are sincere and I hope that the choices you have made will have merit before God. The attributes of God are clear. His Immutability is clear. His ( anthropomorphism ) knowledge of the future is like a moment for us. You cannot change the scriptures. You can disagree. It is ok to disagree. However, if someone else sees a different picture why would you call them hateful.? I do not buy that approach. Thank you for your video.
@@hag_13 By the tone of your comment I see that you had a strong resentment towards us, most likely because of the hate that you received from the hateful bunch out there. I wanna personally apologize to you for all the hate from "Christians" that you received. I just want to let you know that not all of us are like that. Just know that you are loved by God and he wants you to have a relationship with Him. He loves you and wants the best foe you ❤. I hope one day, you'll be able to find His grace and be able to trust in Him wholeheartedly, just like I did. I also see that you listen to BTS? Me too! You have a great music taste and i hope we can be friends one day :D
@@mochi6494 actually no. I’ve never had any bad personal experiences with religious people but the amount of hatred a lot of them hold for anyone who doesn’t align with their beliefs is astonishing and disgusting. real christianity is letting people be happy regardless of what sex or gender they choose to have relationships with.
@@hag_13 Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand and agree to it to some extent. The LGBTQ+ community received an overwhelming amount of hate and discrimination from the hateful side of Christianity and I don't think that's what Christianity is supposed to represent. I also experienced some of those hate as well. And I agree that some of them really are hyporcitcal, preaching "Love your Neighbor" then saying I would rot in h3ll the next moment. And you're right, that's not what being a Christian is all about. We as Christians must dedicate our life to Christ and to put Him over ourselves and to put our trust in Him with all our hearts. And when we share it to unbelievers, we should share what the wonderful things Jesus did for all of us so we could be saved, and be with Him and have everlasting life, not tell people that we would burn in Hell. I'm really sorry for all the hate that you witness in "Christianity". I just wanna say that those hateful ones don't represent us at all. I pray that you'll be able to receive God's grace and be able to have faith in Him. Much love and sending hugs ❤❤❤
@@mochi6494 good luck living in a lie pretending to be heterosexual, must be horrible having your true self be taken from you. living in blindness will never make you happy but to each his own I guess .
@@marchofnature636 Based on 2 Peter 1:16-21: The Bible is a reliable collection of historical documents written down by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report to us supernatural events that took place in fulfillment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are divine rather than human in origin. That’s how I know. Evidence.
@@marchofnature636 You must need to get to a library asap. There are a great many accounts of Jesus and “biblical” events other than the Bible. Oh and, just because I used the Bible doesn’t make it not true just because you don’t want to believe it. After all, it _was_ kind of written and recorded during the time of those pesky eye witnesses and all soooo… yeah
Someone needs to tell Rosaria that no one can claim they're a TRUE Christian...a TRUE follower of The Lord Jesus Christ IF they continue to engage in the sexually immortal acts of homosexuality. The Bible says so and for Rosaria to skirt and dance around that God spoken truth is leading people astray and away from God and her continued promoting this false doctrine will result in her standing in front of Jesus with the blood of those she's deceived on her hands. The Word of God -The Holy Bible says so.
She actually has done interviews where she has made it very clear. She said that she had a huge problem with people living in homosexuality and claiming to be Christian.
'If we cannot receive the blessing of God, we will demand the acceptance from man"...Very interesting. The image of us burning in hell made me vomit in my mouth. Not because we were gay, but because we were PROUD! We wanted to be Autonomous,We Rejected the bibles interpretive authority, It was our Hearts and minds first. Our bodies followed. (This can be said of any sin or rebellion against God)
Your hearts n minds are corrupted. Your hearts n minds say to do against whatever is against how you feel. Feelings are subjective, temporary n changeable, so they are not ultimate truths. We are all short of the glory of God. My standards n your standards are all short of perfection.
She should do a study on Calvinism vs. The Christian Faith. This woman is church building attendee that believes her Christianity was the result of her being chosen for salvation among most others who are chosen by some god for damnation regardless what they do. There's no way she actually is a saved woman believing in Calvinism. Now with her popularity and books it's likely she is directing others to false conversions as she is a false convert herself from what I can see. She is a servant of the devil posing as a servant for God, selling lots of books along the way. People need to fully believe and trust the gospel to be saved 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
DO You Know Jesus Christ? The Only Saviour for Us The Good News to Our Sin Problem Cause We’re ALL Sinners and Need the Lord Jesus Christ to Forgive us our Sins Romans 3:25-27 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; What does it take to be Forgiven? Faith Alone in the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ to Forgive your Sins through His blood (By believing in this you have become a new creation in Christ, and have a promise you’ll be with the Lord in your death, but also have the Holy Spirit living in you forever as a guide for you) 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Romans 10:9-11 KJV That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. Romans 4:24-25 KJV But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification. (Christ died for our sins, he was buried, and he rose again according to the scriptures) By having faith in that alone you are sealed with the Holy Spirit forever and SAVED from the moment of faith for Eternity. What if I continue to Sin? What if I stop having Faith? What if 5 years after being saved I have an affair? What if I aborted my child? What about suicide? When you first had faith in Christ in your heart you were sealed and justified from that day forward, no matter what you do or don’t do our Lord has saved your soul and made you a new creation. Eternal Security (100% Going to Heaven) This is isn’t a license to sin, it’s a realization that God gave you the best gift ever by saving your soul from hell. Your old habits of sin go away over time when you walk with the Lord. No one is perfect, that’s why Jesus had to Justify (Impute righteousness) us through his righteousness by the blood. So don’t be discouraged you will grow and your old habits will shed away over time. You will always have struggles but God always remains faithful. Loving people is what the Lord wants us to do, so I would encourage everyone to minister the Gospel and be an example of Gods power through the renewing of your mind on Gods Word. When we listen to people speak and show them love God will shine through us. The “small” things in life like a smile, a hug, a great attitude, a conversation with a stranger, an encouraging word, cooking dinner for someone in need, loving your parents, and having a heart for people as Christians should have. I’m looking forward to that day when we meet the Lord and all the Christians in the clouds at the Rapture. Our time on earth is running out so lets spread the gospel in love. Titus 3:8 KJV This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men. Galatians 3:23-25 KJV 23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. ( We’re not under the law so no longer under the curse of sin cause we’re Justified by Jesus through Faith Alone) Ephesians 1:13-14 KJV 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Titus 3:5 KJV 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Romans 8:15 KJV 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. When you believe in you heart on the Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ (The Finished Works/Blood) you are saved brothers and sisters for all of eternity (Eternal Security is Yours) Romans 8:38-39 KJV 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Galatians 1:11-12 KJV 11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Grace is for You Nothing can ever take you away from our Lord Jesus Christ when you first believe in your heart. NOTHING NOT YOUR FUTURE PRIDE NOT YOUR PRESENT LUST NOT YOUR FUTURE LUST NOTHING MEANS NOTHING GOD WILL REMAIN FAITHFUL TO YOU When I learned I was sealed with the Holy Spirit (Eternal Security) I was so happy, because my whole life (30 years of it) I believed a lie that I could lose my salvation by my bad works. Cause of that belief I walked away from the Lord for many years, “so what’s the point if I can’t measure up”. I ran to alcohol, drugs, woman etc, and it made me so depressed. I was longing to fill the hole in my heart that I came to realize only God can fill. Many years went by, then the last day I drank came, and I called out to God and balled my eyes out. From that day I started changing, and I haven’t drunk since. God has helped me through many emotional issues, has made my relationships much better, and if the Lord can save me, I know He can save you. Now that I have proper understanding, and realize the truth of His love it makes me want to do more for God. God wants us to do Good works and by our example people will see Christ and potentially come to believe. God wants All men and woman to be saved I pray this helps You or Someone Else get a little closer to Jesus Christ and get clarity on Gods Word and the power that it has to change your life. God Bless You
I'm actually surprised that this is TGC.. I'm kind of speechless over the comments, as well. Don't y'all have Dr D A Carson over there? I know he knows the NT. What is going on here? This isn't biblical.
+Prem Kaivalya No one is identifying their whole life, merely identifying their sexuality. When you say "I'm straight" you are identifying your sexual preference, nothing more.
Brian your no pastor. Godly hate yes. But the unconverted hate God and His people. Christian's hate sin and hate every false way. They hate what God hates and loves what God loves.
@@danielmann5427 Daniel ...UR no Christian......a REAL Christian wouldn't judge. So is ur god satan......Christians do hate sin which is why we hate ur homophobia lifestyle choice....
So, according to Rosaria Butterfield the Bible is God. That IS the typical belief of most Christians. Also, Dr. Butterfield believes that one must go to church in order to pray to God as though the church is the place in which God resides. Dr. Butterfield also equates the writings of Paul with the Creation God, not to mention her glaring misinterpretation of Paul's epistle ...Romans 1:21-27.
The Bible is inerrant and inspired and written by the Holy Spirit through men of God, using them as the Instruments.. The Bible is the written word of God spoken by the Holy Spirit and in the New Testament Jesus is the Word made manifest in human flesh in the incarnation. John1
glove you ex gay doesn’t exist. Maybe those who really claim to be “ex gay” like miss butterflied over here have always been sexually confused, and when they found “god” it helped them understand their sexuality or at least embrace one side of their sexuality that alines with their Christian understanding of the world. But sexuality never goes away, if you’re attracted to men as a man, that’s just what its gonna be, no matter how much you force yourself to feel attracted to women, its just not gonna work. People are delusional nowadays to think that if people just pray hard enough, they can be change their sexual attractions is absurd and goes against nature
@@Jujubes666 How do you know what you say is the truth? Beyond anecdotal situations from your own world, how do you know people can't change their desires? Of course you don't know that. For every situation you may have, there's one to counter it. Take a step back and be open minded.
Finally! Someone else sees what this is. If it's not justification of sin, then why are there thousands of comments doing just that? I think most of the commenters on here are calling homosexuality "not a sin"... It most certainly is... And a unique sin, in scripture... I don't think anyone reads the bible anymore.
There is no condemnation with the sins she has committed because she repented. Turned away and doesn't practice it any longer. It's sad seeing.people on here saying it isn't a sin. I like how she put it as it's not the root sin. That was good. 1 Corinthians 6:9Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with menfn 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
King's Acres I really love that line! "Such were some of you." It shows that no matter our sin, God can still transform us. It also shows that it doesn't matter whether people are born that way or not. There still isn't any excuse. Obedience to God is obedience to God! The question still remains: will you follow Him, or not? Will you admit that you're wrong in your very nature, and leave it all behind, and come to the feast? We know it's sin because God calls it sin, and that's that. It doesn't matter what our hypotheses is, on the matter. The verdict from God is all that matters. We repent from it, and are given the privilege of seeking and obeying Him. Anyway... I'm just sayin'

Brave and inspirational! Clear and transformative to me even as a straight woman. Am sharing with one of my struggling friends.
Maybe share the Episcopalian church with your struggling friend instead. They have a lesbian bishop who understands God's love is unlimited. We do not need to change god's love to fit it into our limited understanding.
Love the clear communication of uncompromising truth in a spirit of grace. Powerful...
In life, I knew that I can read something and interpret in my own way, and sometimes through others. So I wanted to hear everything from God, so my own understanding or others understanding would not get in the way of God's truth. So I kept quiet of my troubles from my friends and family and sought to have Him send me messages. These things never come immediately, but I hear the right things I need to hear- again, I do not say anything of my troubles so I can let God say things through others. It makes it tough when I feel I am against the world, and that even the world thinks they are speaking the word of Jesus.
Amazing testimony! Praise the Lord!
Thank you for bringing clarity to a subject that can be so difficult to talk about and understand.

Yes, stop trying to make the Bible anti-gay when Jesus never said that. Jesus said to love everyone so maybe you are letting your prejudice get in the way of that.

Thank you. God's grace is amazing. and yes, repentance is bitter-sweet. I feel blessed and saddened at the same time. The most powerful thing I took from this is that homosexuality is consequential and not causal. Makes perfect sense to me. God bless you.
But can you repent for it if you really mean it from the heart and you change you're self and never let you're self look at he same sex the same way ever again because you wanna be close to God and you don't want to go to hell ?
It makes perfect sense to straight people.
@@1liesenfelt Not to all heterosexuals. It makes sense to homosexuals (and heterosexuals) like Rosa who come to know Jesus intimately and give themselves to Him. Jesus is greater than the belief that your sexuality/status/bank balance/race/gender defines you.

I have heard no one articulate my position any better. Thank you for proclaiming the gospel with love and without compromise.
I wish I could thank Rosaria personally for this testimony. I've struggled with LGBT arguments about their rights to be LGBT. I never know how to respond except that God says it is sin. But hearing her talk about the root of sin, and that Homophobia is the same as Homosexuality, helped me better understand all sins. That the pride of life, lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes is the root. Thank TGC
God, this is like providing weapons to a murderer
Being gay isn't bad and God doesn't exist, you need someone to tell you at once
Homophobia and homosexuality isnt the same, 1 is a choice to purposely HURT others and the other you're born as!! God wouldnt want anyone to be racist anymore than he would want anyone to be homophobic!!

As scripture says, "ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN'...she is making us all understand, although homosexual sin is sinful, it is the fruit of unrighteousness...yielding our members as instruments of unrighteousness instead of righteousness...God's Will, God's Love, God's Holiness. His suffering and death and shed blood that cleanses us from sin and all unrighteousness is our only hope and salvation from all sin ! The only unforgivable sin is unbelief ! As Paul said, "Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6
Jerome Reiter, I'd like to see that scientific evidence, sir. I've been looking everywhere and can't find it. It doesn't exist. The only way to tell is by an act. There is absolutely NO SCIENCE that indicates that homosexuality is even a thing. The ONLY thing to indicate that is the action of sodomy(old definition; unnatural). So, you're the one trying to fit your worldview into an contradicting reality. If I'm wrong, show me the evidence. If not, then you've been desensitized, jammed, and converted. I encourage anyone who reads this to watch Dr. Voddie Bauchum's "Is gay the new black?". It is an excellent and factual teaching, and is very illuminating, unlike your unsubstantiated claims regurgitated from God only knows what source of propaganda. There's almost nothing that you said that is actually based in reality. I know people hate the bible but, you got to read SOMETHING! Crack a book, and quit getting your information from crackpot media outlets. Otherwise, show me the evidence. Because there is no such thing.
Penfire222ify Amen! The bible certainly does say those things. However, immediately before that verse is the one that says homosexuals, among others, will not inherit eternal life. So, we can draw from this, in the context of what Paul's saying, that it doesn't matter how we feel, or what our flesh is attracted to. Someone can very well claim to be born that way, and.. even though there is absolutely no science affirming that, it's still a non issue. It doesn't matter how we feel. The bible already describes our hearts as deceitful above all else. So, of course our feelings and nature would be inclined to sin. The only thing that matters is God's commands. The only thing that matters is His will. As sinful humans, we make the arrogant mistake of judging God on our perception of what we think reality should be. We're the problem! You don't get good answers from the problem. God is the solution. He is sovereign, not us. He is good. We are not. The bible has always been offensive to man. When the world starts agreeing with you, you know you've gone horribly wrong. Who cares what they say?! God is the authority... Not some human who doesn't even have 100 years under their belt. How arrogant of the fool who thinks he/she has the slightest inclination of having "figured it all out".

Wow, it's possible !.❤
My one thought! Why is it when there is a disagreement with your life style that those who have another opinion automatically are hateful? I find that closeminded. The unitarian church is an activist church. That is ok. Your chosen life style is ok. You are allowed to choose. I take the scriptures seriously. I believe in the canon of scripture. When someone is living a life style that goes against the scriptures in love I pray for them. I do not hate them. My prayers are sincere and I hope that the choices you have made will have merit before God. The attributes of God are clear. His Immutability is clear. His ( anthropomorphism ) knowledge of the future is like a moment for us. You cannot change the scriptures. You can disagree. It is ok to disagree. However, if someone else sees a different picture why would you call them hateful.? I do not buy that approach. Thank you for your video.

@@mochi6494 actually no. I’ve never had any bad personal experiences with religious people but the amount of hatred a lot of them hold for anyone who doesn’t align with their beliefs is astonishing and disgusting. real christianity is letting people be happy regardless of what sex or gender they choose to have relationships with.
@@hag_13 Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand and agree to it to some extent. The LGBTQ+ community received an overwhelming amount of hate and discrimination from the hateful side of Christianity and I don't think that's what Christianity is supposed to represent.
I also experienced some of those hate as well. And I agree that some of them really are hyporcitcal, preaching "Love your Neighbor" then saying I would rot in h3ll the next moment.
And you're right, that's not what being a Christian is all about. We as Christians must dedicate our life to Christ and to put Him over ourselves and to put our trust in Him with all our hearts.
And when we share it to unbelievers, we should share what the wonderful things Jesus did for all of us so we could be saved, and be with Him and have everlasting life, not tell people that we would burn in Hell.
I'm really sorry for all the hate that you witness in "Christianity". I just wanna say that those hateful ones don't represent us at all. I pray that you'll be able to receive God's grace and be able to have faith in Him.
Much love and sending hugs ❤❤❤

Someone needs to tell Rosaria that no one can claim they're a TRUE Christian...a TRUE follower of The Lord Jesus Christ IF they continue to engage in the sexually immortal acts of homosexuality. The Bible says so and for Rosaria to skirt and dance around that God spoken truth is leading people astray and away from God and her continued promoting this false doctrine will result in her standing in front of Jesus with the blood of those she's deceived on her hands. The Word of God -The Holy Bible says so.
She actually has done interviews where she has made it very clear. She said that she had a huge problem with people living in homosexuality and claiming to be Christian.
Can a man listen to or join a women's conference?
'If we cannot receive the blessing of God, we will demand the acceptance from man"...Very interesting.
The image of us burning in hell made me vomit in my mouth. Not because we were gay, but because we were PROUD! We wanted to be Autonomous,We Rejected the bibles interpretive authority, It was our Hearts and minds first. Our bodies followed. (This can be said of any sin or rebellion against God)
Your hearts n minds are corrupted. Your hearts n minds say to do against whatever is against how you feel. Feelings are subjective, temporary n changeable, so they are not ultimate truths. We are all short of the glory of God. My standards n your standards are all short of perfection.
She should do a study on Calvinism vs. The Christian Faith. This woman is church building attendee that believes her Christianity was the result of her being chosen for salvation among most others who are chosen by some god for damnation regardless what they do. There's no way she actually is a saved woman believing in Calvinism. Now with her popularity and books it's likely she is directing others to false conversions as she is a false convert herself from what I can see. She is a servant of the devil posing as a servant for God, selling lots of books along the way.
People need to fully believe and trust the gospel to be saved
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
King James Version
15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
DO You Know Jesus Christ?
The Only Saviour for Us
The Good News to Our Sin Problem Cause We’re ALL Sinners and Need the Lord Jesus Christ to Forgive us our Sins
Romans 3:25-27
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
What does it take to be Forgiven?
Faith Alone in the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ to Forgive your Sins through His blood (By believing in this you have become a new creation in Christ, and have a promise you’ll be with the Lord in your death, but also have the Holy Spirit living in you forever as a guide for you)
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV
15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Romans 10:9-11 KJV
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Romans 4:24-25 KJV
But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
(Christ died for our sins, he was buried, and he rose again according to the scriptures) By having faith in that alone you are sealed with the Holy Spirit forever and SAVED from the moment of faith for Eternity.
What if I continue to Sin?
What if I stop having Faith?
What if 5 years after being saved I have an affair?
What if I aborted my child?
What about suicide?
When you first had faith in Christ in your heart you were sealed and justified from that day forward, no matter what you do or don’t do our Lord has saved your soul and made you a new creation. Eternal Security (100% Going to Heaven)
This is isn’t a license to sin, it’s a realization that God gave you the best gift ever by saving your soul from hell.
Your old habits of sin go away over time when you walk with the Lord. No one is perfect, that’s why Jesus had to Justify (Impute righteousness) us through his righteousness by the blood. So don’t be discouraged you will grow and your old habits will shed away over time. You will always have struggles but God always remains faithful.
Loving people is what the Lord wants us to do, so I would encourage everyone to minister the Gospel and be an example of Gods power through the renewing of your mind on Gods Word. When we listen to people speak and show them love God will shine through us. The “small” things in life like a smile, a hug, a great attitude, a conversation with a stranger, an encouraging word, cooking dinner for someone in need, loving your parents, and having a heart for people as Christians should have.
I’m looking forward to that day when we meet the Lord and all the Christians in the clouds at the Rapture. Our time on earth is running out so lets spread the gospel in love.
Titus 3:8 KJV
This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
Galatians 3:23-25 KJV
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
( We’re not under the law so no longer under the curse of sin cause we’re Justified by Jesus through Faith Alone)
Ephesians 1:13-14 KJV
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Titus 3:5 KJV
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Romans 8:15 KJV
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
When you believe in you heart on the Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ (The Finished Works/Blood) you are saved brothers and sisters for all of eternity (Eternal Security is Yours)
Romans 8:38-39 KJV
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Galatians 1:11-12 KJV
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
The Gospel of Grace is for You
Nothing can ever take you away from our
Lord Jesus Christ when you first believe in your heart.
NOTHING
NOT YOUR FUTURE PRIDE
NOT YOUR PRESENT LUST
NOT YOUR FUTURE LUST
NOTHING MEANS NOTHING
GOD WILL REMAIN FAITHFUL TO YOU
When I learned I was sealed with the Holy Spirit (Eternal Security) I was so happy, because my whole life (30 years of it) I believed a lie that I could lose my salvation by my bad works. Cause of that belief I walked away from the Lord for many years, “so what’s the point if I can’t measure up”. I ran to alcohol, drugs, woman etc, and it made me so depressed. I was longing to fill the hole in my heart that I came to realize only God can fill. Many years went by, then the last day I drank came, and I called out to God and balled my eyes out. From that day I started changing, and I haven’t drunk since. God has helped me through many emotional issues, has made my relationships much better, and if the Lord can save me, I know He can save you.
Now that I have proper understanding, and realize the truth of His love it makes me want to do more for God. God wants us to do Good works and by our example people will see Christ and potentially come to believe.
God wants All men and woman to be saved
I pray this helps You or Someone Else get a little closer to Jesus Christ and get clarity on Gods Word and the power that it has to change your life.
God Bless You

So, according to Rosaria Butterfield the Bible is God. That IS the typical belief of most Christians. Also, Dr. Butterfield believes that one must go to church in order to pray to God as though the church is the place in which God resides. Dr. Butterfield also equates the writings of Paul with the Creation God, not to mention her glaring misinterpretation of Paul's epistle ...Romans 1:21-27.
The Bible is one of the main places one "meets" GOD. Not that it is GOD.
why do you slander her and say things she believes in, and infact she didn't say?
The Bible is inerrant and inspired and written by the Holy Spirit through men of God, using them as the Instruments.. The Bible is the written word of God spoken by the Holy Spirit and in the New Testament Jesus is the Word made manifest in human flesh in the incarnation. John1

What? You don’t even know who God is. He does things beyond your imagination. Search so many ex gay testimonies. Find the truth!!
glove you ex gay doesn’t exist. Maybe those who really claim to be “ex gay” like miss butterflied over here have always been sexually confused, and when they found “god” it helped them understand their sexuality or at least embrace one side of their sexuality that alines with their Christian understanding of the world. But sexuality never goes away, if you’re attracted to men as a man, that’s just what its gonna be, no matter how much you force yourself to feel attracted to women, its just not gonna work. People are delusional nowadays to think that if people just pray hard enough, they can be change their sexual attractions is absurd and goes against nature

There is no condemnation with the sins she has committed because she repented. Turned away and doesn't practice it any longer. It's sad seeing.people on here saying it isn't a sin. I like how she put it as it's not the root sin. That was good.

I really love that line! "Such were some of you." It shows that no matter our sin, God can still transform us. It also shows that it doesn't matter whether people are born that way or not. There still isn't any excuse. Obedience to God is obedience to God! The question still remains: will you follow Him, or not? Will you admit that you're wrong in your very nature, and leave it all behind, and come to the feast? We know it's sin because God calls it sin, and that's that. It doesn't matter what our hypotheses is, on the matter. The verdict from God is all that matters. We repent from it, and are given the privilege of seeking and obeying Him. Anyway... I'm just sayin'
There is no homosexuality in the Christian faith. A person with homosexual desires isn't a Christian. #Fact #DealWithIt
But any other sinful desire we Christians all struggle with in this life because of our remining sinful nature is okay?
Does she really believe the Bible is inerrant ????????????? How can this be???????
Brain damage
The bible says women are to keep silence in the churches.
Because she is an English professor, and the Bible is a reliable collection of historical documents, written by eyewitnesses, during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses, which report supernatural events, that took place in fulfillment of specific prophecies, and claim that they are Divine rather than human in
origin
Jerry. That is factually incorrect.
I am referring to your claim that the Gospels were written as late as 180 CE. Name a major N. T. scholar today who says any of the the canonical Gospels were composed in the mid to late 2nd century.
I feel sorry for this woman
SNAP OUT OF IT. WHICH BIBLE????????
It’s funny how brainwashed people are about God. Why is it so hard for people to except that when you die that’s it?
you suppress the truth in unrighteous.
The truth is religion lies to the world. Biggest scam on the planet.
@@ateam388 so angry, why does it matter? For one person to be hopeful for afterlife that does not affect you, unless you feel pressured to prove your points out of fear, see my friend, if you were confident in your philosophy you wouldn't need to prove it
Maddie Penny Well just like Bernadette subaru says “For those who believe in God no explanation is necessary, and those who don’t believe no explanation is possible .”Me though I just grew up!
@@maddiepenny1020 yes we would have to prove it to people who think we're hellbound simply because we don't accept there invisible friend. Also it's not the idea of the afterlife that bothers us it what people do with those beliefs in this life. The hatred of LGBTQ people and suppression of there rights, lack of bodily autonomy for women, the ability to deny someone something like a cake or adoption simply because they don't agree with your beliefs. The loss of home and jobs. These are the problem with your beliefs
THERE IS NOT ONE BIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha, if you dont know what you are talking about then don't comment
