Just want to say thank you God for giving Andy this wonderful gift. And thank you Andy for using it to open our eyes and ears to hear His words. This was so appropriate for the crazy times we are living in right now.
It is very easy to misquote Andy if you don’t know his manner of preaching: contextual preaching. You have to follow through the entire message and not a part of it to appreciate the full message. He preaches within context and I consider him one of the most gifted preachers of our time. May the LORD continue to bless him!
A❤
he literally abandons scripture but sure
Kind of like Scripture.
@@hondotheologypeople who are familiar with scripture know.
Amen. God bless Andy.
I love this message. Right on point! Thanks Andy!
Then vs Now! Amen! Preachers and some men in leadership of churches sometimes use THEN Bible verses to ease their fear toward congregation to control. Pastor Stanley THANK YOU SO MUCH for speaking the truth with courage and boldness! We won't share everything we think but with grace, love and patience...no matter what, we are pressing on to be Christlike each day, abiding in HIM! #Christlike #Jesusisauthority. Heavenly Father, please help us to realize to see who we really serve! Let us NOT serve ourselves (our will, our ideology and our belief) out of fear, in the name of Jesus, but help us to be brave to serve your will not ours. Amen!
I am ready to reconstruct. Then I heard Andy teach this sermon and I feel HOPE. I am Severely
Depressed, I am chronically ill and disabled, the worst Is hating my faith because I CANNOT believe in a God that Evangelicals teach abut.
THANK YOU PASTOR
ANDY. DON'T EVER STOP THIS TYPE OF THINKING AND MOST OF ALL BEING!!❤ I FEEL A GLIMMER OF
HOPE.
Thanks Andy! Christian’s in America need to hear this message really
❤🎉🎉🎉Thank you, Pastor Andy.
Wonderful to hear you again. What has struck me lately is Jesus'
instruction to them was "Go and teach what I have taught you."
....which wd be Matthew 5,6 and7. If we all tried to follow these three chapters that encapsulate Jesus' teaching ,
we would gradually change the world.
Thank you Pastor. You are one of the few church leaders making sense this season. What’s important is that God IS watching. So grateful for your voice and work. Looking forward to Revelation 7:9. ❤
Thank you. To be cautious about leaders who need an enemy to further their agenda. Teaching over media to hate and write off those who are hurting and need our support. Then to try to share that I need to FEAR my country and demonize others. Thank you for reminding me to love unconditionally.
Pastor Andy, thank you for embracing the truth and for preaching/teaching it with boldness!
My prayer: Father God, after "hearing this message" by Pastor Andy, please help me, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to be bold in sharing these truths in the marketplace with those who desperately need You. And Father God, please continue to rest your anointing upon Pastor Andy as he preaches the Word. In the name of Jesus I pray, amen.
I've been reading and studying the Word of God for 40+ years. I know the truth, and Pastor Andy does as well.
Bless you Andy, the Holy Spirit is on you. Bless this message Father 🙏 Thank you Father for your son Jesus, thank you Jesus for the Holy Spirit my best friend 🙏 I am never alone
BRAVO. All the opponents are in their own unfocussed world of strife without power.
Christians all over the world need to hear this, the most inclusive, Christlike sermon I have heard!
So powerful! Thank you so much for this message. I'm praying to receive the heart of my Heavenly Father. I need His love.
Wow! You got guts Andy! You are going to attacked on this one. If God, "Jesus" be for you, who can stand against you. Can't wait to see the ripple effects!
@johniii8400 to the person with clinical depression. I feel very deeply for you. I am thankful that Jesus also went thro a little time (on the cross) of believing himself abandoned by the Father. He - like you - could cry out in desolation
'My God why have you forsaken me.'
See Psalm 22.....
Of course he wasn't forsaken-
But it felt like it, as no doubt it feels for you...
David says in another Psalm
"Why do you stand afar...."
and another time "my couch is wet with my tears."
Once we asked an
Old man 'How are you keeping?'
He said softly
'I'm being kept.'
My spirit resonates with this word. The contrast between live and hate
Jesus loves the little children all the children of the world “THE FAR LEFT AND THE FAR RIGHT”
They are precious in His sight Jesus loves the little children of the world.
Amen
Yet,I am sorry to confess, that tho I sang that song as a child, for most of my life,I😢 thot Jesus loved the white children best.......not any more.
....😅
I wonder why that song didn't teach me?
This is fabulous! Jesus wasn’t focused on “ sin” but love was his message again and again. Because guess what? There are no “ those” sinners, only “ we” sinners. It’s inclusive. Not “ those” people which is laden with judgement which is the opposite of what Jesus taught.
Remember “You will know they are Christians by their love”, not their judgment about sin or political philosophy. Jesus summed it up in his response to the question of what is most important? He said the greatest of these is LOVE- Love God with your heart, soul, strength and mind. And LOVE your neighbor as yourself”. Period. We don’t need to search further for the heart and command of Jesus.
Thank you for this message. I was losing faith in the Jesus a lot of church folks have been displaying.
Thank you for that teaching, love our enemies. Even a Democrat.
trolls on a Christian video shouldn't surprise me, but here we are
😮 A controversial sermon. Nothing I have not heard from him but he really puts it out there! This one will not be popular with many but definitely food for thought.
My synopsis - also on my shared FB post.
1. Major message is that Jesus has all authority, as he said. Even over Old Testament teachings…
The church should be about following Jesus.
2. He discusses hip churches that followed their model but are not based on Jesus. He discusses church that divide their services into traditional and contemporary in order to”reach more people”. Of course, he points to the inward focus of many churches. As has been his message, he includes the inclusivity and diversity, a key part of what Jesus taught, and needs to be readily visible in what the church does.
3. Next: one extremely bold and blunt point was about any church aligning with any political party. The gospel of love extends to those of both parties. The word “hate “ becomes part of churches involved with the far right. Stanley, however, criticized church members of both parties that choose party over being a follower of Jesus.
Just begin it and see what you think. I agree 👏🏻
Right on
It’s the tree of knowledge…
Interesting statement there sis…
What did you mean by “it’s the Tree of Knowledge?”
@@vetracer217our own understanding and response verses what is true and life giving
@@dianaflegal4495
Cool Sis.. your statement definitely got my attention!
Seems our Heavenly Dad’s also had us in a similar journey as yourself 😊.
Blessings to you and yours in the unimaginable journey of Grace… that’s “only” started to unfold!!!
The bots or plants are out in full in the comments.
What would it take to get Ps Andy Stanley and Dr Jordan Peterson in the same room?
While he sounds good and does have some truth, he never discuss the fact that we need to turn from sin. The Lord outlines that for us. Yes Jesus loved, but did not approve sin. Those who were redeemed left their life of sin, those who stayed in sin Jesus let them walk away. You cannot say you are in the faith if you practice sin as a habit of life. You would be deceived and counted as the tares Among the wheat or the goats among the sheep. I pray often to the Lord, asking him to show me the areas of sin that I am holding onto so I can abandon them and live a life holy pleasing him.
He is also is broad brush this issue. There are more churches that are non political than he thinks.
Why a man that openly promotes pro-gay theology allowed any platform in Evangelicalism
32:25 - Andy says he’s “evangelical, not an evangelist”. The latter is a body of human church leaders active in today’s political realm, who seek to influence their members’ behavior. The former is simply the method of teaching as many people as possible with the good news of Jesus. To ‘be allowed’ (your words) to preach implies that you think a specific governing body of evangelists ought to have final veto power in endorsing or condemning the messages a pastor is allowed to deliver. Thankfully, that’s not the case.
I really don’t understand how a Christian can vote Democrat when the platform of the democrats is so fundamentally opposed to Biblical teaching. And yes, I heard what Andy said about being biblical, and I disagree with it. I’m still disturbed by how he is essentially preaching against parts of the bible, the Old Testament in particular.
Let's all compare Jesus' quotations from Torah with what the passages Jesus quotes really said...
@@joels751 Fell free to share.
He isn’t. For centuries misguided so called Christians have used the Bible to justify atrocities, it’s happening again. What Andy is saying is a warning.
that is an interpretation entirely up to you to decide. what he preaches against is demonizing people instead of loving them. and that kind of rhetoric is really only heard from one side.
@@kaischmidt730 Yes, I get what he’s saying and it makes sense to a point. But he is clearly trying to move people away from the “clobber passages”. By calling out people who misinterpret the Bible and use it to justify mistreating others he is simultaneously influencing people to ignore those parts that others find problematic. Being loving to our fellow man is all well and good, but there are some things God calls us to not love. Like sin and this fallen world.
