ABOUT BECKET:
Becket Cook was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. He attended Jesuit College Preparatory
School of Dallas.
After graduating from Austin College in Texas, Becket moved to Los Angeles to pursue his
dream of writing and acting, finding success in both. He eventually went on to become a
production designer working with the top photographers and directors in the world on fashion
shoots for magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and for ad campaigns such as Gap,
L'Oréal Paris, and Nike.
Finding a new sense of freedom in L.A., Becket also fully engaged in his new life as a gay man.
He had a series of many relationships with men throughout the next fifteen years.
In September of 2009, Becket met a stranger at a coffee shop in Silver Lake who invited him to
his church in Hollywood called Reality L.A. Becket reluctantly agreed to attend the service.
After hearing the sermon that Sunday, Becket was utterly transformed by the gospel and gave his
life to Christ. He also knew on that day when God revealed Himself to him that homosexuality
was a sin and that he could no longer live that life. Becket was more than happy to count
everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus his Lord.
Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences
helping believers (and non-believers) understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally,
and personally. Balancing grace and truth when teaching on this subject is of primary
importance. His goal is to challenge the current cultural narrative about sexuality in general and
homosexuality in particular by demonstrating through his personal testimony and biblical truths
that, yes, homosexuality is still a sin, and that following Christ is infinitely more satisfying and
joyous.
He has lived all over the world in major cities such as Rome, Vienna, and Tokyo.
Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of
Arts in Theology.
Becket’s book, A Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption, with a
foreword by Francis Chan, published by Thomas Nelson, released July 30, 2019.

Hi Becket, I've recently found your channel. My introduction was the Yoga video with Rae. Excellent 👍
Listening to this one I have to Ask, where are you getting your views of Elohim and Yahweh? Elohim is just the Hebrew word for the title "God." It's not a name for God, or the name for another spiritual being. It's Yahweh's title. Yahweh, or to use the same translation method that gives us the name Jesus, "Jehovah," is the divine name. It's our heavenly Father's name, the name of God Almighty. I'm hearing a little confusion on this point.
This is brilliant! Thank u Becket Cook. Saw u on Daystar & now following u. Your love for our beloved Trinity is so beautiful. #Union
So appreciate your dedication to God's Word, growing in His knowledge and grace and love for the Truth. My own son and his wife are prodigals, celebrating two men "marrying" in sin. They reject the Lord and all Believers in my family. But your Mom's prayer letter inspired me and gives me hope. I have a granddaughter I may never see unless the Lord changes their hard hearts and they repent. Stay the course, I love you as a spiritual son in Jesus, although I would fall far short of your biological mom (who sounds like an angel)! Hugs, blessings!
Was an ex lesbian for most my life, been set free for 3 years now, i don't even have am attraction to women anymore, greater is He that is in me than he that is in this world. Jesus christ is real!! I wouldn't have ever got out of that without Him. Glory be to the Lord!
Beautiful
Amen! happy for you!!!!!
Amen, I thank God for your salvation
Glory be to God!!!
WOW I am so thankful to Jesus showing you the TRUTH, THE WAY AND THE LIFE. Love you our dear sister in Christ. 👑👑👑
I, too, am a former homosexual who now belongs to Jesus Christ and the kingdom of heaven. It’s a beautiful life now and I am released from bondage and the chains of sin. God bless you, bro Beckett and all of you who read this. Jesus Christ is the only answer and the only way!
Christopher....Praise God!!! Thank you for blessing us with your comment!!!!
Praise the LORD, Christopher. I am Rejoicing in this. Lord bless you so much & use you with others in this sin to share the truth and your testimony. Glory to God Most High.
Same here Christopher. I praise God for His work in me. I must ask, do you struggle with thoughts at times that attempt to lead you back to past behavior?
@@bretfrazier9269 The enemy will always attempt to attack the mind and even my dreams with my past. However, because of what I know the Lord has done for me, I would be foolish to turn my back on the love, mercy and grace of Jesus Christ and what He did at the cross of Calvary. I’m totally blind for 14 years now and I’m in a place in which it is difficult to live the way I used to. Many of the friends fell away and I surround myself with my family and church family. For the past few years, I have been living with my big brother and my father after the death of my mother. I was in a state of depression in living on my own when she left and I had to Pray way out of the situation. Thank God for my family that they brought me here to Jacksonville. I’m planning on moving into my own place soon and I will continue to cling to the Lord Jesus Christ for strength and understanding. Thank you for the question and you stay strong in the Lord, Brett. We can do this!
@@alivingstone4Him thank you so much! I know my God is real and I know that my God changes hearts and minds. I will continue to glorify His holy name! Take care of yourself!
So happy to hear that so many gay people are coming to Jesus . My marriage was destroyed when my husband told me he was gay. He left me and our daughters to go and lived a crazy gay life. I watched him with sadness how little by little he was getting ripped off of everything he had. He had a career that he lost, a family, finances, he was a pastor, so he lost his reputation, he lost his health, last year he died at age 63, a man that was so healthy died on an hospital bed, just skin and bones. The only man I have ever been, he used to be the love of my life, now my eternal love is my Lord and Savior. He restored my life and gave me a new song. Believe in Jesus, he will never let you down. God bless you all. 🙏😌🙏
They exchanged the Truth of God for a lie... I'm so sorry for your loss. God bless you. Have you considered writing your story?
Your story breaks my heart. I'm so glad to hear the Lord has been your light through it all. Nothing can ever separate us from His love. God bless you! ❤️
This breaks my heart for you and also for him, if he didn’t repent before he died. I hope he did. What a heartbreaking story.😔💙🙏🏼
My now ex husband did the same thing. At one point he said he was a follower of Christ now he is heavy into a promiscuous gay/bi sexual lifestyle. He abandoned me, our marriage, and our three kids. He just recently requested parental termination to not have to pay child support. I agreed for the protection of my children, he is not safe and was emotionally abusive for many years. It is very sad and I grieved the loss of what should have been but I was never going to have peace with him and so I was ready to let him go. He’s gone his own way and all we can do is pray for Gods mercy on his soul.
Go and find another male 🤷🏻♀️
... while Andy Stanley (North Point Church) is baptizing practicing homosexuals, here we have an former homosexual that says "gay pride leads to death and the gospel leads to life". Becket repented of his homosexuality and preaches against it. Thank you, Becket, for having the courage to say what a mega pastor in Atlanta doesn't have and do.
Andy Stanley is a false preacher
@@Palmettogirl what went wrong with Andy Stanley? His father is so commited to truth.
I suspect that is the kind of topics that divided Andy and his father Charles Stanley for YEARS.
Preachers Kids do rebel. Even the best of them. I was married to one for 20 years. I think the devil comes after them hard
*Joel Osteen
I’m an ex homosexual that Christ set free 11 years ago. I was deep in bondage to sexual sins and know that I couldn’t have left that without Christ.

yay
God bless you
Thanks for your testimony!! Good bless you and all of us to love our lost humans who do thirst for God.
Praise God! ❤️
Please pray for Lebanon, we're the only middle eastern country left that has a strong Christian influence ♥️✝️
May God bless Lebanon.

@@boxtapper8550 Amen♥️ thank you

What's the situation in Iran?
I am also a former homosexual and I thank Heavenly Father for taking me away from it and taking it out of me. I honestly am changed, I no longer have that need to want to be with a other man. It's like my sexual desire has been turned way down and now I am also celibate and consider myself asexual because I dont plan on being with men or women. I am content with that and know that there is so much more waiting for me in Heaven, thank you Lord.
You are considered a eunuch for the Kingdom of God Matthew 19:12
@@kfollowstheway138 Type Bible Criticism online and learn that the Jews created Jehovah God etc in 950 BCE, Rube. How educated are you? Your name suggests that you suffer from Christian Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Your ignorance keeps you in the cult and deprogramming you is impossible as long as you never type Bible Criticism online, Rube. Please, let's talk abut your masterpiece of professional brainwashing. I am waiting! I am impressed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I pray that the Lord will give you boldness to witness to lost soul who are still in bondage to this lifestyle.
I am also vowed celibate for life, because I am a grandfather of 14 and have no business having sex with anyone and I am so happy and content now and forever.
I know some folk will say that the adverse reaction of ppl finding out their close loved ones are practising homosexuality is learned from the attitudes of their family (while growing up, perhaps). i don't know how much that has to do with it: but a woman I knew when i was a young adult told me the following tragic story. When she & her husband were young he desired greatly to marry her, but her father disliked him for some reason, & refused to consent. The man, whose nickname was 'Bud', sobbed in disappointment. Her father changed his mind, & they were wed. Their union produced a daughter & a son. Decades went by, & the children grew up. This couple who claimed~ >> both
I am so heartened by all of your stories of coming to Christ after being in a gay lifestyle.
My daughter has left our family to pursue this life and will not have a relationship with us unless we condone and celebrate homosexuality. She is young and I’m sure confused and hurt and in the beginning of what must feel free . Free in the sense that she can tell that nagging feeling of sin to be quiet. Pray for her friends. She once claimed Christ , so much so that she led her brother to him . I miss her so much.
Praying for your daughter's return to the arms of Christ and your family. Keep praying. He hears you and sees you. God bless.
@@jcsaves4ever thank you
Keep praying for your daughter. And add fasting to your prayers.
I will pray for your daughter Penelope
My heart goes out to you. Keep praying, get a book on prodigal prayers too it helps. Yes I understand where you are at.
I also was in the dark, though not gay I had many girlfriends, porn addiction, anxieties and almost killed myself until I prayed sincerely to Jesus. Guess what? He answered, touched my heart and cured me in 4 seconds of all things.
As Becket is saying: find a church who teaches the gospel.
@esico6 Wow, what a powerful testimony!! Praise God!!
Similar testimony with me brother. It is still an every day battle but the Lord provides the strength in weakness. Stand strong in the new life the Lord has given you!
It’s exactly my story too brother in Christ, I was sex addict and pornography in extreme that affected my personal and professional life, one day August 18 2018 I kneeled on my knees and asked lord Jesus Christ to save me and over night I was save and pass 3 years I’m sober and dedicated my life to Christ amen
Wow.
Praise God!! and if I may add, get yourself a King James Bible. Do your own due diligence as to why this only is the Word of God. Blessings.
"Pride goeth before destruction"... I've always found it interesting the term "gay pride". Saying extra prayers this month for those struggling with homosexuality🙏🏽🌈💓🕊
I love that, I'm gingered to do same.
I always thought the same & I think it's no coincidence.
Thank u so much for the reminder to pray for that group this month. I’m disappointed I forgot!
I've been meaning to do the same! Thanks for the reminder
i struggle with it. 😭
There are many people who have left the gay lifestyle and identity and now are leading a godly life but they don't speak up. I understand why.
Therefore, I admire your courage to give out your testimony with boldness.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death. Revelation 12:11
There main purpose is the children we must protect them.
@@pastorbri I definitely Agree!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
You obviously never met a gay person
@@loramarijakolar2638 So l understand when he said protect the kids. That comes natural with me because I am already protected mom in this crazy world. Trying to put the pride thing on everyone than make it seem normal.
@@pastorbri but if you maybe just gave them a chance you would realize that they are not satanists preying on your children but just someone’s brother, daughter, friend and they just want to be loved and love like everyone else
@@loramarijakolar2638 some out there are Satanist preying on children! All of them are satanists. You have heterosexual satanists that prey on children also. And they may not be some of them Satanist literally preying on children but Satan does use them to prey on children whether you understand that or not we are in a spiritual warfare! And it has heightened the spiritual warfare has tightened! And according to the Bible it is going to get worse! See when you are in open Rebellion against the most high God demons are there to use you to influence others to do wrong also. Whether you understand that or not it is happening only one who can save people from this destruction is Jesus Christ what the power of God the Holy Spirit!
I hear more and more people everyday, even from non-Believers, that people can feel the spiritual war going on now. Satan is ramping up his efforts because he knows his time is growing short. The spiritual world is very real. Praise the Lord that He is with us and is infinitely more powerful than the darkness! #GodWins
God is more powerful than Satan you’re right but we as Christians need to be doing our job and striking out the enemy before he strikes us war has strategies on most saints are not equipped for Spiritual warfare
@ Jennifer Taylor No doubt about it, the spiritual warfare is happening big time. LUKE 10:19 & 2 TIMOTHY 1:7 are powerful scriptures (I know that you know these) & we have to stand on HIS WORD. I'm in a battle myself. LORD BLESS.
@@sheluvssmokedupeyes1 God doesn't call the equipped. He equips the called!!!
I have heard the same thing, especially in the light of covid and the mass shutdowns. I think God used that to shake the Church and the unsaved out of their slumber. But I can see more people falling back into their old ways now things have seemed to "relax" as far as mandates. Let's keep fighting by standing for the Truth...it is not over!!! Cities are working to legislate restrictions that may close the doors of many christian church buildings. We will go underground.
God in the latter days will reach down and shake all these people off the fence, to which you will fill fall in either side. The days of straddling the fence are over. Its time to pick a side. You can see this happening in the world right now, things are so polarizing. The world is darkness and it hates the light. Jesus is that light. Darkness hided the evil deed's that man does. We need to stop trying to be friends with this world. Jesus said they world first hated me so will it hates you but remember that I concquered death. We need to stop trying to make this world like us. It hates you.
The devil is roaming around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour! He’s going after the children, stealing the innocence from the children! We are raising our granddaughter to know the Lord Jesus and she will be homeschooled also!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Amen sister! We’ve been homeschool for a while now😊
👍
@@michelle20900 Thats right, the word of our lord says "raise up a child in the way he/she SHOULD go" Amen?⚘
I always thought the same thing. Pride is not something to be celebrated.
It's not all of the corporations displaying gay pride flags that shocks me, it's the churches that are doing so.
Thank you so much for this, Becket! My son,who walked with the Lord, was a worship leader and was in ministry for years, chose to embrace homosexuality as a lifestyle and is currently living in LA. He became disappointed and disillusioned with God for not “delivering” him from these desires. The Lord provides hope for me through your podcasts and the demonstration of His power in your life. Thank you for your faithfulness, courage, and perseverance in being light and proclaiming the Gospel in these days.
Sounds almost exactly like my son, and it breaks my heart every day. 😞
Former bisexual, saved by Grace 🐑💜🕊
Hey just curious. Do u still struggle like with alcohol addiction? Or are u delivered. God bless u
Amen. Blessings to you.
My niece is bisexual. I pray that she sees the truth and opens her heart to the Lord
Praise God!
My daughter 21 announced she is gay, though she not been in a sexual relationship with a female, even emotionally. I'm glad you've found peace, I pray she does the same.
I was delivered in 2010 myself.. I realized He makes us to lie down in green pastures..and told Him.. Make me do it. And He did💖
Praise the LORD! God is good. Indeed, The LORD is our Shepherd. Blessings to you Lea!
Praise Him!
Wow! That’s powerful! God bless you
I did a video a couple of weeks ago on should a Christian attending a wedding?
@Lena Scott that’s a Bold and a brave move. God bless you!
I had a very close brush with homosexually, only progressing as far as pornography, curiousity, and masturbation and everything that it entails... But never became truly attracted to other males. I became a Christian before progressing further. I think unfortunately too few Christians speak about these topics for fear of shame and ridicule (especially in this climate).
Great channel.
Can relate to this story, thanks. Nobody understands how this stuff works and its hard feeling totally misunderstood all the time. It is a progression, step by step, chasing your own lusts, searching for the perfect orgasm or whatever it is. Born that way I was not. I was taught sex and pleasure could only be a good thing, and could never be destructive or dysfunctional. A devil's bargain.
@@sonofphilip8229 Wow what an explanation! Truly a devils bargain!
All it means is that you were slightly bisexual, most people are... 🙄
@@Jarimir most people aren’t. Maybe in your twisted world.
@@frauddetector6129 how do you know most people aren't?
I have to share a little story. We used to have a coffeehouse in the gay neighborhood of San Diego and we lived near there as well. When our little niece was about 5 years old, she came and had a sleepover with us. The next day, in the car on the way to the beach, we drove past a restaurant with a huge gay flag flying over it. Our niece noticed it and piped up from the back seat, all excited, in her little speech-class voice, "Look at dat fwag, Tee Tee! Isn't the wainbow God's pwomise never to fwood da earf again wif wain?" (Sorry. That's exactly how she sounded, lol.)
But her sheer innocence and joy at the sight of a "rainbow"! A total heartcrack moment.
I just turned to her and said, "Yes, sweetie. Yes, it is."
Lovely!! And blessed parents and aunts that did teach her the truth with which to divert the devil's lies. Pray my grandchildren will be taught that way too. From down Argentina
As I was reading this, I thought when she said “fwag”, I initially thought she was referring to the gay men in the neighborhood. Then I realized she was talking about a flag. Interesting they sound alike and they have so much in common.
@@amandak19800 Oh, no! Yes, it was "flag." Lol. She was in "beach class" (speech class) for several years and, honestly, I was kind of sad when she got it all figured out because it was so funny and cute.
@Stanley Draper This was about 12 years ago, yes, on University.
What a funny touching slice of life. I wish I could have been there to hear that. Your story made my day.
I was living in a same sex relationship for over a decade.
It was a very dark and a very mentally and emotionally unstable time in my life. Christ set me free and helped me understand that I was living in my issues that were causing me trauma mixing my past with my present. It seemed to all like a perfect wonderful lifestyle to everyone but it was scary, broken and deep sadness I was trapped in along with all those around me worshiping sexual sins and the flesh as their God. I didn't go from gay to straight. I went from a heart at war and fight with God to a heart in love and in union with God as my true maker and father.
:)
But you're not straight now, right?
@@pastorbri Actually I had a very long term same sex relationship that was very happy and stable for 2 decades as for us being supportive and caring about each other's issues and I was unaware that we were both living life feeding those painful issues the very issues we needed Jesus for healing and salvation.
@@mountainguy7762 My love is STRAIGHT to Jesus and sexual behavior is no longer my God or focus. Jesus became more important to me than any sexual relationship. My love and desire is for him ❤
@@mountainguy7762 I'm a follower of Jesus Christ. My desires in the flesh doesn't control or define me anylonger. Sexual lust of ANY kind is no longer my God to be serviced and promoted to others. My identity is not tied to any sexual behaviors.
a sexual partner is no longer defined as my God, world and everything in life to me.
Jesus means more to me than any sexual behavior ( man, woman, animal or self lust ) sexual behaviors may bring me minutes or hours of fading pleasure and a sense of false security in another human being or act. I am no longer defined by sexual behaviors.
I am not straight, gay or bisexual or non sexual.
My pride is now being a holy image bearer of a holy God.
I was once in war and rebellion with God but now I become one with Christ.
I am a follower of Christ not any sexual label carrier. It's very degrading as a woman and human being to be even asked "How you like to engage in sex" what is your sexual LABEL? or Labels?
I was not made and put on this earth 🌎 to have my identity be based on my sexual performance and then be publicly labeled and displayed to others solely based on my sexual performance.
My pride is in my creator not his creations are acts there of.
I love you, I love your story. I'm not gay but I have a gay friend who I led to Jesus in High School. He told me he hid his homosexuality. He cried and cried when he found Christ. Years later I saw him in college he had walked away from God. He reminded me of you in many ways. I pray for him all the time.
I love Christ-centered discussions of depth, insight, and deep thinking (especially concerning our current culture). Your channel is such a breath of fresh air for me! Thank you!
Thank you! God Bless
The Liberal left wing media crowd that has driven the gay life style and now the transgender lifestyle they have a lot to answer for and the hatred they have for the word of God
The gay pride flag has 6 colors that is also a perversion of God's rainbow. The number 6 is the number of man. The original rainbow has 7 colors!!
Good point. Never thought about it like that.
What's the 7th color? 🤔🙏
@@vanessaparvin3295 red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
That’s a good point! So it’s not God’s rainbow flag, it’s Satan’s try at doing a copycat.
@@vanessaparvin3295 Violet also called Scarlet is the color of royalty. It’s the color of God.
I love that you said let’s pray against the demonic realm and not against anyone thing person or place.
That is how we should pray all the time.
Ephesians 6:12
You’d be surprised to know many people who have a healthy spiritual relationship and understanding of scripture know that it’s powers and demonic influences used to manipulate people. They just purposely put the 🎤 in-front of the wrong people used to represent followers of Christ. To create divisions and hate so the conversation get no where.
Amen! Im so happy the Lord called brother Cooke for this amazing ministry.
@@pastorbri really. You are still trying to manipulate people with your false teachings. I am sure you have a different version of the bible than the actual bible or you are just a cherry picker hiding behind religion. Stop trying to intimidate people with your self proclaimed title and causing others to stumble. It is sad 😢 you truly do know what you are doing but just want what you want anyway.
It's so interesting to hear your insights Becket, thank you.
My darling uncle Ken was gay, but more the dignified "old school" gay, as were his friends.
One night in 2019, on the last night of his life, while he lay so weak in his bed in the care home, he laid himself in Jesus' hands, accepting His love and saving death, taking Him at His word.
It was a precious time that I had with him, just him and me, and Jesus.
One thing that made me privately angry and deeply sad about the gay community was the amount of Narcissists that gay men seem to attract: the gold-digger types who circle like sharks, looking for some vulnerability to exploit.
There seemed to be little love or real connection.
One of my gay male nursing colleagues used to tell me about his life, most often when we worked nights together, & it seemed to me a shallow life where you had to use others & let them use you to be part of the culture.
It was a highly promiscuous lifestyle, & I found that sleaze and shallowness hard enough to bear in straight culture.
I always felt concerned about my colleague, in case someone beat him up when he was out, or if he caught HIV. I cared about him.
I appreciate that Jesus has been calling me, & showing me Himself since I was a child.
Love to all from Melbourne❤️🇭🇲🙏
😢
Thank you. Bless you. See you and your uncle in Heaven😊
I was just telling my husband the other day when something clicked for me. People used to always use the saying "gay dar" when they sensed that someone was gay, now I think that sense is really the spiritual presence of some kind of sexual spirit that is around that person.
@@pastorbri For example, there is most definitely a spirit of depression, which I personally suffered with and it was something passed down in my family. I was able to hear it speak to me and felt it's presence. Me saying that doesn't mean I'm hateful towards people who suffer with depression.
I was literally just thinking that the other day too. Yes, it is a spirit.
@@pastorbri isn’t homophobia what the world calls, those who are against homosexuality (which we Christians are against) I’m confused.
Ive thought this too. I can see spiritual energies on people and I can definitely agree
LOL
So glad for your deliverance sir! The Holy Spirit delivered me from lesbianism in 1999. So glad we’re free, God will work through us to bring others out.
Please share your steps!!!! I may need a therapist now... I've seen so much pain, destruction and delusional behavior... Whew! I lived in Atlanta and it made me spiritually sick!
Noela ~ Would you please keep my brother in your prayers when you pray? His name is Marc and his husbands name is Howard. They’ve been together for many years, 40 to be exact. He believes he is saved because he goes to a Catholic building every Sunday to “adore” the Lord. He won’t read the Bible because he knows what it says but he still thinks he’s covered. Pray that Holy Spirit would open his eyes. Thank you. I appreciate you.
This year has been very extreme, I have seen so many ads on transgender, non binary, and homosexuality, it's crazy.
To your point, the emergence of their new flag. It is so troubling!
The world will be the world. I’m glad that God is saving people. There are many ex lgbtq + as much as those coming out. Fear not, if God is with us who can be against us. Yeshua H’Masiach
If they hadn't had to undergo so much bias and discrimination, they wouldn't now be putting out so many ads. Equal and opposite reaction and all that.
@@joshuakohlmann9731 explain. I think you are speculating. This country bends over backwards for any variant under the rainbow , same for black lives. My wife and I are , are both non black minorities and no one is paying us reparations for past slavery or kissing our ass and we don’t get to create a flag.
@@rdavis6915 😲They have a new flag?!
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
-Ephesians 6:12&13
Thank you for sharing! God bless you!!! God set me free from many years of lesbianism! I felt that same guilt you speak of! I would drink alcohol so I didn’t have to feel it. I have also felt different spirits in different gay clubs in NC and in Ohio. The spirit realm is so real! Wow! I’m so happy God rescued you like he did me and like he will do with many others!!!! God is bringing the LGBT back to Him!!!! 🥳
Thank goodness that Jesus gives restoration and freedom!
I agree that gay pride has been extra in your face this year! Even Petsmart had a huge gay pride section this year!
Even with pets what is wrong with theses people seriously.
May God keep us near him. May we be on the Rock so we are not shaken away.
How God set you free ? Did you know Christians in your family or friends ? Did they speaked about you ?
Born and raised in LA. Still currently live here. I gave up my homosexual life to live for Christ. The amount of Gay Pride flags I see everywhere I go is intense. Idk how it is anywhere else, but I feel like LA is shoving homosexually in our faces. I can't get away from it. I'm reluctant to let my 4-year-old nephew watch TV or YT because of all the LGBT commercials that are being played.
There are Christian programs to show your nephew. You can download the kids Bible app , super book, etc. When you look at foreign kids programs, like Japanese shonen anime. That should be fine
God bless you! ❤️
Come to San Francisco. That's the Hub honey.

I remember those years at the beginning of AIDS. I worked in the ICU and the ER. We never wore gloves or any kind of protection for anyone before this unless they had an infection. At this point, we did not wear them with patients with AIDS even when handling fluids, because we did not know that could do anything. We were often covered with bodily fluids. Even though these men were on 100% oxygen and a ventilator, we could not get enough oxygen in them to be near normal. They were completely conscious and were mouthing HELP ME and were wild-eyed, grabbing at me, not in an aggressive way, but like they were falling off a cliff and were grabbing at me to hold them on the cliff instead of falling into the abyss. It was the saddest, scariest, helpless, and helpless feeling I ever had. I wrote helpless twice on purpose. I am sure they felt worse. I wanted so badly to do something to help each person. I would work extra shifts and cry and pray when I was not there. It was so hard to be with them because there was such a feeling of fright and urgency coming from them. We could do NOTHING to help these people and wanted desperately to do so. I held hands with them instead of taking a break or a meal at all. Once the doctors started to figure it out, we wore gloves to take blood, but that was the only difference for us. In spite of all the fluids that got on almost all of me, I never contracted it. I am so relieved there are things to help now, but when you said death, it was death. I will never forget it and hope it never happens to another person, ever. As bad as I felt, I know they felt a million times worse. I still pray for these people. I believe you can send prayers back into time to make things better than they were. You saying that brought back all the memories.
IF YOU STILL WORK IN THE FIELD = PLEASE TELL THEM TO RECIEVE CHRIST AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS BECAUSE YOU ARE CORRECT = PEOPLE IN DEATH THROWS ARE FIGHTING TO GET AWAY FROM THE DEMONS PULLING THEM INTO HELLFIRE WHILE THEY ARE BETWEEN THE LIVING AND THE DEAD WORLDS 🌎 IT IS NOT JUST A MATTER OF OXYGEN = IT IS A MATTER OF HELLFIRE = OFFER THEM THE GOSPEL IN A LOVING WAY = PRAYERS WITHOUT OFFER JESUS CHRIST AND SALVATION ARE NOT GOING TO SAVE THEM = YOU MUST BE MORE SPECIFIC AND MORE DIRECT AND THIS GOES FOR ANYONE YOU ARE TREATING WHO IS DYING NOT JUST AIDS PATIENTS = I PRAY THIS SHED SOME LIGHT ON THE SITUATION IF YOU ARE ALREADY DOING WHAT I SUGGESTED = THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST GOD BLESS YOU IN JESUS CHRIST MIGHTY AND PRECIOUS HOLY NAME YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST JESUS REPENT REPENT REPENT BECAUSE HELLFIRE IS REAL AND JUDGEMENT BEGINS WITH THE HOUSE OF GOD
Oh my gosh this is so deeply sad
I had the same reaction to pride parade when I wasn’t saved, “this is a bizarre world… there is something not right about this” later that day I began to sob heavily, so heavily I couldn’t breathe. I remember I kept saying, “they’re lost, they’re lost.” I wasn’t saved at the time, or rather I was still walking in my sin, but I remember my soul was crying for these people.
@@pastorbri I am confused by your question but I will answer the best way I can.
I can see the emphasis on the word really. I want to state that I was probably just as lost as they were in my own sin, fornication, drug use, etc. but a part of me knew the Lord was my savior. I remember later that day I asked the people around me if they believed in God. I was saved by the grace of God, I just wasn’t walking with Him yet.
I feel it is our duty to care for those who are lost in their sin and don’t know/understand the saving power of Jesus. I wasn’t exactly versed in how Jesus was my savior, but we can tell people about it in a caring, loving way. I probably would have cried no matter what bc I’m a cry baby lol I’m sensitive as hecc but the Lord made me that way for a reason. I knew I was lost too that day I was at the Pride parade
It felt like death
When I was near the pride parade
While they brag about “PRIDE”,let’s all brag for being the BRIDE of Christ.
Ummmm, i'm a MAN. Are you suggesting i go Trans, so i can become the BRIDE ... or are you asking me to have a Homosexual Relationship w/ our Saviour? Marriage and Sex/Procreation are synonymous, (it's the only place where sex is "biblically acceptable"; In Marriage) i'd prefer not to have a sexual relationship w/ God ... though Jesus is a hottie and i'd TOTALLY let Him get inside me! ;)
Amen. Flesh and blood did not Reveal this to you, The Holy Spirit did.
You only can understand that, when you are Spiritually Descerned. You are looking at what the person said through the Physical Eyes. Pray and Asked God to give you the Spirit of Descernment so you can Understand these things.
When Jesus was here he Spoke in Parable and Only his Desciples Understood him. The Multitude of People did Not, Why? because they did not Believe in Him.

Amen. Christians should have compassion and a want to save them just like they would with others. They need Jesus as much as the next person does.
Wow! You present this level of Moral Superiority that i find very anti Christ. Are you doing the Lords Work when you look at His creation as ˋLost & Deceivedˋ? Perhaps you need to do more work alongside The Lord, so you don't find yourself projecting your own self criticism onto others. Where is the compassion when you categorize others into positions that only feed your Ego, as better-than or "more christyly" than those you place your judgment onto? Narcissism is truly rampant; pandemic levels really.
You are@@MrNotoriousROB I encourage you to read the Bible. God loves His children, all of us...but we miss the mark. Its not about moral superiority or narcissisim. Read the word and follow Christ. He is the truth and He forgives us when we deny ourselves to go after Him. Jesus is Lord and He is wonderful!
THIS PRESENT DARKNESS by Frank E. Peretti was a book I read about the spiritual realm when I was a young Christian and it really opened my eyes and has stayed with me 30 years later. I love your channel Becket!!
That one and Piercing the Darkness were my favorite! I read them in one day each. 32ish years later my 14yo son just read them!
I love you Becket. The light of Jesus shines brightly through you! Praying for you and your ministry. You've really have encouraged me in my walk. :)
I have a gay brother-in-law who is now a Christian and lives celibate. He said the same thing, that the lifestyle is extremely dark and very selfish. My husband read The Unseen Realm when he was in seminary a few years ago and loved it.
Even the single hetero lifestyle is rife with darkness & selfishness. And I've stumbled more than a few times myself. I've been single my whole life, and when you're young, it's all fun & games. But as you get older, you start to see the benefits of having a spouse by your side.
if it is then why on all tv and movies and books and comics and why they do it and think its ok and why do they hate people and be mean I think we all should be nice I really like o know?
The description of homosexuality as a lifestyle is a blatent oversimplification of human sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular. Such indoctrination of the collective societal psyche is paramount to the self validating delusion of heterosexuality possessing moral validity. The reason that we never hear the term " heterosexual lifestyle" is because there is no need to catogorize heterosexuality with such descriptively inherent connotative oversimplification in order to subconciously justify contempt and hatred through subjective comparison.
Congrats to all you former homosexuals. Welcome to the body of Christ.
Super passive aggressive. Very Gay😂

Becket, after each show I feel so blessed and thankful to have found your presence on utube!!! I so appreciate your honesty about your past and your enthusiasm for Jesus. Praying for continued blessings on your life and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. To God be the glory forever and ever!!
I'm so grateful for Dr Heiser's work. In college, had a lot of classes in ancient civilisations and mythology. I could never understand how ancient people, who might have been smarter than us being closer to Adam, would perform all sorts of barbaric rituals and sacrifice their children and get nothing out of it. Didn't make sense. Dr Heiser's work made the Bible go from 2D to 3D for me. Now everything that I studied made so much more sense. Understanding that there were rebellious gods granting favors for ancient people's faithfulness made a black and white book go to full color for me.
The way to combat the devil is to magnify God. Overcome evil with good.. Only by the power of the Holy Spirit
From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger. psalm 8:2
Becket, I found you, while trying to understand the gay community from a Christian perspective. My 14 year old daughter has started dressing more masculine in this past year. Last week, she was caught having a secret relationship with another girl. There was also drugs and alcohol present. Becket, please pray for my baby. Please pray that God will give me the love and grace she needs moving forward. Also, I have younger children in the home, too. She knows I do not accept this. She has been raised to know the truth. She is so lost right now.
I'm praying for your family right now...my heart goes out to you. God will leave the 99 and go after the lost one. Keep remembering that He loves her more than you do and stay strong in your faith and trust. Bless you!!
My heart goes out to you. Remember that faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction for things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). Have faith and declare God‘s promises over your household. You may not see it yet the natural but God is working in the spiritual first. Every problem you have is an opportunity to grow in intimacy with Christ. God will use the deceit your daughter is believing to expose the fraudulence of the enemy to many in her vicinity.
Regardless, watching your baby make bad choices is soo difficult, but know that God works all things out for your good. He loves your daughter even more than you do. God is desiring to to do something in your household that is powerful and precious to Him. I declare no weapon formed against you or your household shall prosper and I declare salvation and truth over your daughter in Jesus’s mighty name! God bless you💗

I’m commenting here in October… and now my city is rolling out ‘Pridetober’. Our city buses have full on wraps with large printed PRIDE and the hi-jacked rainbow. (Our tax dollars at work). I guess the entire month of June just was not enough. There are parties and festivities going on all over the downtown area. I think these events are so popular because it’s an excuse to do whatever you want all the time and no one dare judge you for it.
It’s pretty discouraging to watch the culture falling apart. Ah well. Come Lord Jesus. :)
I love your city
(The rainbow isn’t hijacked it was never a Christian exclusive symbol)
@@teamtundra2619 you’re right, it was never an exclusive Christian symbol. It is GOD’s symbol of his promise never to flood the world again. It belongs to him, not us.

Thanks so much Becket for reminding me that these people are lost and doing the will of unseen evil. It is helpful to focus on that in prayer and to put down the anger I might have for those pushing these things. Yours is a GREAT youtube channel Becket. I wish you all success. God bless.

I just found you and want you to know what a blessing you are. I'm an old boomer woman with a long history in the New Age. You are dead on in your assertion that demonic powers influence and use us to their advantage. You would be shocked at just how persuasive they are. I had many gays in my classes, that I'm sorry to say were justified by the brilliant entities that fed me their garbage. Thank God for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who caused me to see the true light of God. Just one suggestion: keep praying for people. The demonic realm upon which you now focus your prayers is lost. Those fallen made their choice long ago. Humans still have the ability to hear and respond to God. Our prayers are what help lead them to Christ, and we need to direct those prayers directly into the darkness that permeates them, where they live. Jesus took me to outer darkness, a hell beyond comprehension. There were so many souls trapped in that horror, it was more than I could bear. Take heed, dear ones, come to Christ while you still have time!

Thank you, Becket, for your transparency, honesty and sharing your experiences with us. Our youth are in so much trouble - they are so confused, they need to hear the truth! May God continue to use you in bringing Jesus to this culture.
There is only one truth from God and the rest is all lies that are being fabricated by the many who are lost and deceived. This is why you had better be very sure of what you are believing since there are millions of preachers who are leading many souls astray with their misguided interpretations of scripture. The vast majority of believers are so deceived in fact that many are foolishly believing that scripture is relating that they can never stop sinning. They clearly have no idea that God commanded us to live a holy and righteous life which can only be achieved by no longer sinning. Since we are all born in sin and in ignorance of God’s word and truth this is the reason why Jesus came into this world. Jesus came to forgive us of the sins that we have already committed and He came to teach us how to stop sinning through His Holy Spirit.
Jesus did not come to forgive our past, present and future sins as many who are deceived desire to believe and there are no such scriptures that even back up that nonsense. This spoken untruth is having people believe that they can continue to sin and then simply repent and God will just forgive them over and over. This twisted reasoning would mean that you can steal and then repent, you can lie and then repent, you can murder and simply repent. You can keep committing whatever sin you desire and just repent afterwards and you will always be forgiven. Jesus came to call sinners to repentance which meant for them to no longer sin.
So to try and justify why they still sin many deceived believers will twist the meaning of scriptures like 1 John 1:8-1O or Romans 3:10, 3:23 and 7. For some foolish reason these lost souls desire to believe that Paul and the apostles continued to sin and they will often twist the Romans 7 scripture to try and back up their lies. These deceived believers fail to realize that we have all been sinners at one time in our lives and Paul was simply relating how he was a sinner until he was freed by knowing Christ. They clearly overlook how Paul related that he had died to sin and he was no longer a slave to sin in Romans 6.
Many also love to twist what the I John 1:8-10 is relating in order to justify their sin. This scripture is simply relating that everyone is born a sinner since we are all born in sin and ignorance of truth. It is saying that this is why we need to repent and confess our sins to God so that He will then forgive us. It is also stating that anyone who believes that they have never sinned is then calling God a liar. But nowhere is this scripture ever relating that a believer will always sin as those who follow the devil and his lies desire to believe.
The Romans 3:10 is relating that none of us are righteous since we are all born in sin and this is why we needed a savior to teach us how to stop sinning. Romans 3:23 is actually stating the same thing since we are all born in sin and we all fall short of the glory of God.
Many believers who are lost and deceived try to justify their sin by claiming that the apostles were sinners themselves and they will often use the scripture where Peter denied Jesus as their justification. When they do this nonsense they are clearly revealing their complete ignorance of scripture and they prove how they are being guided by a demon spirit and not the Holy Spirit. So did the apostles all sin at some time in their lives? They most definitely did since everyone is born in sin and in ignorance of truth. Now did Peter sin when he denied Christ? He most certainly did but many overlook how this occurred before Peter was sanctified in truth. Next, did Peter sin when Paul corrected him in Galatians 2? No he did not since Peter was following the Old Covenant laws that he was raised under and Paul was simply revealing how their old custom traditions should no longer apply under God’s New Covenant.
Many who are deceived cannot comprehend what scripture is relating in regards to the apostles. Scripture is relating that the apostles were originally sinners who willingly followed the teachings of Jesus and they allowed Jesus to sanctify their hearts in God’s truth and teach them how to overcome their sins. This is why God then used them as His messengers and He gave them His power to heal. Read John 17:6-19 where Jesus prayed for His disciples sanctification to prove what I relate.
Another thing that the many deceived believers clearly overlook is how scripture relates that God does not listen to the prayers of sinners. God’s never lies so this alone proves that the apostles could never have performed healing miracles if they were still sinners themselves. Jesus could work healing miracles because He was sinless and so God then answered His prayers. The apostles then reached the place where they overcame their sins as well and so this is why God then answered their healing prayers.
“Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.”
John 9:31 NKJV
“We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.”
I John 5:18 NKJV
Scripture relates that anyone who is born of God does not sin and because they can no longer sin this is why they can no longer get sick since sickness only comes from sin and the devil. So if you can still sin and you can still get sick then that certainly proves that you are not BORN AGAIN. This is why many believers who live in sin and sickness will try and justify their afflictions by twisting scripture verses like claiming that Paul’s thorn in the flesh was a sickness. Many deceived souls desire to believe that Paul possessed a sickness so allow me to explain what Paul was relating in the 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 scripture. First, what does a thorn in the flesh do? Well it causes pain and suffering. So just as Jesus suffered in the wilderness by being tempted by Satan Jesus then allowed a messenger of Satan to tempt Paul in order to make him stronger in the Holy Spirit.
“And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
II Corinthians 12:7-10 NKJV
If Paul was able to remove the sickness from everyone who came to him then what could possibly make anyone believe that he was someone who had sickness in his own life? Couldn’t Paul just remove the sickness from himself as he did with those who came to him for healing? Plus if Paul was bitten by a venomous snake and yet it did him no harm how could anyone possibly believe that Paul was someone who could then get sick himself?
“Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.”
I John 3:4-9 NKJV
So scripture clearly states that whoever sins does not know God and whoever sins is of the devil. Scripture also clearly relates that whoever abides in God and is born of God cannot sin and does not sin. So anyone who sins or anyone who believes that they can never stop sinning is simply a deceived believer who cannot comprehend what scripture is relating since they are blinded to truth. They are being influenced by the lies of a demon spirit and they certainly are not being guided by the Holy Spirit. There is no sin and sickness with God and there is no sin and sickness for the true children of God. So if you are someone who can still get sick then that alone proves that you have not overcome sin. You are clearly deceived and you certainly do not understand the blessing that Jesus provided for all of mankind.
Lastly, many do not realize that they are condemning their souls since they are willingly posting their misguided beliefs in regards to scripture here on the Internet. They have no idea that they will never be forgiven for the lies and the nonsense that they are relating since they are now someone who is blaspheming the Spirit of truth. Realize that God did not instruct us or command us to explain scripture to anyone but yet most are foolishly believing that it is their duty to try and lead others to Jesus. These deceived believers do not understand that the Great Commission was for God’s chosen disciples who were trained by Jesus and who were sanctified in God’s truth. So if you have never been sanctified in truth and you have never overcome your sins then you certainly should not be offering scriptural advice or comments to anyone.
“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!”
Matthew 18:6-7 NKJV
This man is gay and you know it
@@mikerutkowski7265 Praise GOD for HIS great mercy and love and for sending JESUS to live with us (humans) and ultimately die for us=paying our debt=a gift, making it possible for humans to be in the presence of and in relationship/dialogue/friendship with GOD, our Creator. GOD is holy and HIS character is such that HE can not be in the presence of sin=breaking the LAW of GOD, rebellion against GOD. It is our choice to acknowledge that we are sinners, separated from GOD, believe that JESUS died in our place, literally paid our fine, so that if we accept HIS free gift, we can be FREE from sin and be in relationship with GOD. I agree with GOD'S WORD=the Bible which you shared. However, I disagree when you begin to interpret the Scriptures to mean that once we repent (turn from) our sin and believe and accept JESUS' death and resurrection for us, we will never sin or be sick here on earth. No, we do not have licence to go on sinning, but as we learn more about GOD by reading the Bible, we will still have to fight temptations to sin and sometimes fall back to our old, sinful human ways for which we are to repent. And while living in this sin-filled world, our physical bodies age and are affected by sickness. It's our spirits that are FREE from sin and its effects, not our physical bodies.
@@sonjaszaukellis6119 you certainly are one of the many who are lost and deceived and you clearly have no idea what scripture is relating. You are simply twisting scripture to try and justify why your wicked soul still sins.
Scripture clearly relates that anyone who still sins does not know God and they belong to the devil and there is not even one scripture that ever relates that a sinner can belong to God or that a sinner is a Christian or that a sinner is a child of God. So your lost and deceived soul certainly is not comprehending what scripture is relating.
“Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.”
I John 3:6-9 NKJV
Anyone who is now born of God does not and cannot sin and we definitely know that this does not apply to you. Realize that if you were truly living by the Holy Spirit then it would be impossible for you to sin since you would now be guided by the Spirit of God who is Holy and pure and who cannot sin. Since you can no longer sin then it would be impossible for you to ever get sick since scripture clearly relates that sickness only comes from sin and the devil. So there is no doubt that you have certainly proven that the only spirit that is guiding your ignorant and sinful life is a demon spirit.
Scripture is relating how Paul and the other apostles were sinners who allowed Jesus to sanctify their hearts in God’s truth and teach them how to overcome their sins. Jesus did this in the flesh with His 12 original disciples and He did it through His Holy Spirit with Paul. Clearly you overlooked that Jesus is alive and He now does the same exact thing with anyone who truly surrenders their will through the guidance of His Holy Spirit. This is the whole reason why we need His Holy Spirit. Sanctification is not a life long process as some believe since the apostles became sanctified in truth through the teachings of Jesus and all you need to do is read John 17:6-19 to prove as much. This is why Jesus then used them as His messengers since they were now sanctified in God’s truth and they had overcome their sins.
So you certainly have no idea what scripture is even relating and are nothing more then a deceived soul who is trying to justify why they still live in sin.
@@mikerutkowski7265 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. (1 John 2:1) If you think you are without sin, ask yourself if you have perfectly kept the Law from the day of your Salvation. Sanctification is a process. The Holy Spirit convinces us of sin and can be grieved lest we harden ourselves against him. By no means are we to continue in sin, but by the measure that you judge those who are just babes in their sanctification, you too will be judged. Job declared his righteousness as well, before God humbled him and he repented.
I was hard core into the occult, witchcraft, and esoteric practices before I became Christian. And it is because of my experiences with the demonic that I could no longer deny the existence of God. Thank you for the video, much love 🙏
Thanks for sharing. May I ask if you encountered anything supernatural during the time you were partaking in the occult?
Please make a video
Thank you for coming at this subject from a spiritual perspective, Becket 😃
Between the ages of 20 - 23 I hung out exclusively with my gay best friend. I was disillusioned by 'Christendom' and 'straight' men, so thought the alternative would be 'safer' for me at the time. I was naive.
That world is heartbreakingly dark. It kills me that I was running away from God at that time. I had an opportunity then that I haven't had since.
I was also really hurt by people I met then because I was 'straight'. I didn't see that coming. I still really love every person I met during that time & pray God will meet them & save them somehow.
I can still recognise the 'feeling' of the spirits that inhabit that environment. I definitely pray for the LGBTQ+ community with that in mind.
I'm just so grateful to know you follow The Most High God beside me, dear Becket, even though we're on opposite sides of The Globe 🌎🌏
Bless you heaps 🤗
Beckett Cook I read/listened to your book. I am so grateful that you are a brother in Christ. I am trying to be the Christian I need to be. Please keep doing what you do. I pray for you a lot.
The gospel does deliver! We all need to pray for Becket because the Enemy knows he is speaking Truth. 🙏
Amen. Praying for Becket, God is using him amazingly - all glory to God. I left a very wordly lifestyle in 2009 and became born again. The spiritual warfare I face is very difficult. But the freedom I have in the Lord is amazing! I am so grateful for His love & presence.
Amen - will definitely pray for Becket & SO glad he discovered Heiser 👏🏻
There is nothing truthful about religion
“Bizarre and extreme” are accurate descriptors. My son just brought up the other day questioning why LGBTQ warrants an entire month? 🤯
I thank God for your boldness and testimony, Becket. My first video from you, I know you from Chynna's channel. God bless your obedience and ministry!
:)
Michael Heiser is a gift from God. His story show how the Divine Providence works.
I was delivered from this lifestyle a few years ago. Lived it most of my life, now 55 and I don’t look back. I always believed in God and “thought” I was serving him, or thought I “was just human” living my life. Didn’t necessarily see loving someone of the same sex a bad thing. My relationship with Jesus has led me down a path that has taken away the desires of this lifestyle. My purpose now is to serve him, and focus on my life as a Christ follower. I know he loves all of his children, and asks the same of us. I never understood the “pride” part of the lifestyle, I never thought of myself as “proud” of my sexual preference. I wasn’t necessarily ashamed, but I wasn’t proud either, it’s just who I was. I thank God everyday for my deliverance and just want to life a life that serves Jesus our Lord. He has been so good to me, throughout my life. I wasn’t aware of the spirit world until this last year or so. I know now that the Bible speaks of them, and they are in fact real. I thank the Holy Spirit for giving me the passion to seek the truth and be in the never ending journey of following my lord and his word. God bless you sir and all of your followers. Jesus is coming back for us soon, and will take us from this evil world. God bless you all...Jesus loves you all❤️🙏🎚
Priase God for deliverance.
Wow! I thank God that he snatched you from hell. Yes! Jesus is coming soon. Our blessed hope. God bless you!
So are you straight now?
@@pastorbri Please go sit down..You are trolling and I don't care at all what you say..Priase God Priase God she been delivered from her sin..Satan I rebuke thee!!
@@pastorbri . Who gave you the right to judge her. You should not use that title.
God bless you Becket.
Hi Becket, I just found you and your channel and I have watched nothing else for the last week. Your life story and testimony have
brought a straight woman to revelations I have never realized since being born again 25 years ago. You’ve answered so many questions
that help me understand a couple of gay friends. I know they live in a dark world ... I have felt it from first meeting them in high school in the 1970s.
Thank you, Becket, for living your life to save our children and SOULS! We love you! 💗 and your courage. Found you from California Dreamin’. And am sooo thankful for you both!
True.
A family member related this story to me, when she was in college, she became friends with a young man, a fellow student who told her he was leaving the church because he was into this lifestyle. One evening they had gone to a dance together and he was giving her a ride back to her dorm. While in the car she was witnessing to him and trying to persuade him to change his ways, for a while the young man tried to justify his behavior, then a change started happening to his demeanor and physical appearance, as she tried once again to talk to him , she heard a clear voice telling her " Stop talking to him, you are in danger, once you arrive to the dorm, step out of the car, thank him for the ride, go quickly inside and do not look back".
She obeyed immediately and God opened her eyes and was able to see for a brief moment the evil lurking inside the young man. She cut all connections to him the next day.
That is so scary!
Thank goodness you listened to the Holy Spirit. I think of the words don't throw your pearls to the swines in the Bible. He had reached a very evil place. Sad
Perhaps it was her guardian angel protecting her or perhaps it was a demon guarding his prey, the young man from being rescued from sin. It’s hard to say from this story.
She abandoned the man physically for better or worse but hopefully she did not abandon him in her prayers though.
This story resonates as I just watched a video by Don Dickerson called "Dont go there.". It discusses territorial warfare but the principalities behind homosexuality have to be as powerful as those over territory. Thanking God your friend listened.
it seeems like this guy was starting to manifest a demon, as often happens when the Holy Sprit is present, and it may have been an opportunity to exorcise the demon from him, but you probably would not have been able to handle that on your own, and thus, you could have been severely attacked, so it was best for you to move on; perhaps there will be another opportunity to minister to him when you have reinforcements
I'm here grooming a dog but I had to stop to put a comment.
Who the son sets free is free indeed. God bless you!
Don't forget, He that hath the Son hath life- he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 1John5:12
Whom the Son sets free is free indeed if you are His disciple....John chapter 8
Becket the lord bless you
I can see the saving grace on you keep telling people a bout God's love and he can change their lives
❤ A mother in Christ
Praying for you .
I love Dr Heiser. His passing recently was so sad.
An amazing book called, 'After the Ball" tells of how the authors, Kirk a neuropsychologist and Madsen, a social marketing and advertising executive explain how they use specific marketing techniques to win social approval for the gay lifestyle. One technique is to use a parallel to great events of history and iconic events to blur lines on cultural perspective. Briefly, I think gay pride is one month-long to intentionally parallel Black History month...the authors explicitly talk about moving from 'current' beliefs to 'preferred" beliefs as goals in marketing any product.
Wow. This stuff is astounding, while not even slightly surprising.
Ty Kadd for the info. I worked in a marketing agency and was astounded at how we, as Americans, are Geo targeted by algorithms and therefore induced into cooperation
I know this book, I Only recently found out about it. Its shocking but also amazing how nobody knows about this.
👍🏾👍🏾
Interesting. Very expensive book though, I'll have to check it out from the library.
Canada is having Pride Season. Not just a month. Insane and so so sad.
😰
Oh wow
Canada is shameful/sinful nation right know. We have a terrible Prime minister.
Wait….it’s all summer long 🙄 I’m tired
The upside is that everyone can use this "season" to go and reach out to those who are so desperately trying to cancel out straight culture and Christians
Such a good and smooth presentation of a subject that many have trouble with, Mr. Cook. I'm not related to you, nor do I know you personally at all, but I'm proud of you for stepping out in the Name of Jesus Christ. God bless you.
I really enjoy your shows, Beckett. I came across a video one day talking about your meeting with the Lord at church. I was quite moved by your openness, honesty and humility. So many people need to hear your testimony. God bless you
When I was young and steeped in heterosexual sin I watched "Animal House". I was repulsed by the crudeness. That movie was actually part of my long road to conversion to Christianity.
Evil puts a lot of stuff out there that God turns upside down and uses for His good.
I used to think all these movies were just harmless fun and people just had problems being uptight. Little little did I know
@Stanley Draper That's like saying sex education is not about sex. It's about education.
Beckett,
I really appreciate you and am encouraged by your changed life and walk with the Lord.
There is no doubt, the bible clearly teaches, that there is an unseen realm and an unseen war in the heavenly places that manifests itself in things in the visible realm.
I’d just add regarding Heiser’s book, take what he says with a grain of salt. Don’t allow the unseen powers to undermine in any way your confidence in the inspiration and authority of the bible. Genesis is God’s Devine word, ‘Ancient Near East’ texts and traditions are not.
