God Is an awesome god of grace mercy and love. Don't feel like your not loved by anything u are. Real live if u just read a bible you'll be surprised at his love

[mccartyboys]

I would just disable comments yo

[mccartyboys]

I would just diable comments yo

[Pscaswasteland]

I started crying when I watched this. In my first relationship ever I had a really bad experience and I thought it was the end... That I was totally worthless but this right here proves there is a wonderful beautiful God who loves us and made us all special. Thank you Flyleaf and Thank you God!

[clmx18]

no matter what you believe, the truth of all we know has been tampered with. the bible for example has been altered but that doesn't mean its completely false. i believe you have to take the bible for what it represents, not a rule book because chances are, its leading you astray. God is more complex than the bible gives him credit for. one thing that seems to resonate with many people is love. so my advice, BE love and let the truth find you. god speaks to our souls. just learn to listen.

[MadHatterKarin]

You know, I don't even BELIEVE in god, and Flyleaf's music still inspires me and almost makes me question that disbeleif. And all you nutcases who are critisizing Lacey for being so sweet and amazing....just be quiet and go away please, because you're annoying and nobody likes you.

[SuckerForMohawks]

this made me cry. It's true and it's beautiful.

[flyparfan]

WOW!!!! Shes more inspiring than wen she came 2 seattle. Thats 2 bad. She hardly talk in seattle.

[ChipChipBreak]

there's so much aggression in some of these comments. A message as beautiful as this really deserves better than petty arguments.

[shizenBara]

She is such a beautiful person inside and out. I adore her because she make me into a better christian and have better self esteem. Bless her and all of Flyleaf

[phoenixeuphoria]

im a complete athiest (but im moral, compassionate, content, empathic, receptive, ....the list goes on) and i love flyleaf. although thier beliefs are at opposite spectral senitments, thier music is wonderful. as much as im able to connect with the emotional aspect of Lacey's messages, i think her head is misguided a bit. im glad that Lacey got through stuff with the

[phoenixeuphoria]

help of "god" but shes gonna realize someday that it was by her own strength, dilligence, and solidarity that shes here making great music. i think that sometimes the advice we get come from others who are on different learning curves who mean well but dont understand that the vulnerable, suseptible and credulous look to them for what Lacey was looking for; solace, salvation, a cure. cant blame her can i? seriously tho,

[phoenixeuphoria]

open your eyes! the morality that comes from "god" in actuality is our own human sence of solidarity for one another, our sence of purpose isnt pre-destined in a holy text, its dirivitive of our own passions, ambitions, fortitude and acknowledgements in that we are all we have, lets embrace and cherish that...i dont need god to tell me that...just look at the beautiful planet you live on...n e way i love u flyleaf!!

[1200cuteanime]

omg, i love lacey, shes such an insperation

[70randomly]

I cried, this is so true, I want to be a better christian. I'm Flyleaf's biggest fan ever, but that's not the point right now. LOVE

[TFKluver1]

@g1h1d1p1 look up the lyrics to Penholder by Flyleaf? written by Lacey from Flyleaf. the person is saying that people almost worship Lacey, but that song shows that the words she writes arent her own, their God's =)

[Bloddthirstprince]

amazing words

enough said

[usweluvsmusic]

she's amazing

[g1h1d1p1]

go to pilgrim's covenant church's web site for more info on the rock the river herecy-or look up ralph ovadal on sermon audio

[tessa51592]

wait, i'm confused. how is she worldly?

[StopWatch60]

g1h1: I do agree with you that repentance is a VERY important thing and that a person isn't a Christian/let into heaven unless their sins are washed away by Jesus' blood (via repentance). That is so important, and that point does need to be stressed. I also agree that people worship Lacey too much, (she is my sister in Christ though, and I highly respect the efforts she makes as a Christian.) The message they try to convey is that God LOVES us, and that He did SO MUCH 4 us. That is NOT worldly.

[g1h1d1p1]

but ill give u ur wish-ill go away because ur willfully ignorant of the truth and i realize im casting pearls to swine

[g1h1d1p1]

their whole style of screetching and screaming in their music is irreverent and yes worldly-and no she is not a sister-no true christian is going to have anything to do with a heretic like frank graham or his father billie or the roman catholic church who also helped put rock the river together

[JasmineLowe]

this made me wanna cry :')

she is so right.

i wish i could see them:)

[g1h1d1p1]

also if u have a problem with me telling people they need to repent,then u prove my point further and if u think God needs a worldly lil rock band to "reach'people-then u deny the power of the tru gospel-would u have told Jesus and john and al the apostles and the prophets of the old testament to stop telling people to repent?why wouldnt u/u told me to stop.please think a lil deeper about wut ur saying-pray and read ur bible-God bless u-ill pray 4 u

[omgilovemcr]

that "worldly lil rock band" is made of 5 DISCIPLES.

all of their songs are praise & worship songs.

God does need disciples.

without them, nobody would know anything about the gospel.

[g1h1d1p1]

u think GOD needs any of us?ur kidding urself-u have such a high view of urself and such a low view of God

[Slant47]

@g1h1d1p1 ok so i watched this vid and i DID NOT hear Lacey say ANYTHING about not needing to repent... i mean c'mon how'd u get THAT from this vid.? and btw i think ur going a bit too far on the hate which is causing you to miss interpret their message.. i remember being at ROCK THE RIVER and Lacey saying that out of all the people that were more deserving than they were God chose them while knowing all their imperfections, to bring HIM glory, they're NOT DOING THIS FOR THEMSELVES...

[Slant47]

@g1h1d1p1 and i wud like to back up omgilovemcr's comment about how THEY ARE DISCIPLE'S DESPITE their past.. God is using them to show the world that He can use ANYONE for His Glory,, to show the world that NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, NO MATTER HOW HAUNTING YOUR HISTORY IS, HIS LOVE CAN BREAK THROUGH ALL THAT SO THAT U ARE MADE A NEW,, BUT only if u want AND ask for it which is where the importance of repentance comes into their belief. its true God doesnt need them but He still chose them for His--

[Slant47]

@g1h1d1p1 anyways ran out of text box but i was gonna say. for His glory and His purpose

[mileycryussckz]

@g1h1d1p1 okay.... sir

1. god doesnt see anyone as a filthy person ; no matter how we sin or what we do he sees the beauty in us

and the little "wordly rock band" is just telling about how they feel. and you dont know maybe god did want them to reach people. make them think about god. but in all technicallty all these people are doing is expressing there love for god and exspressing that he loves us. so yeah.. think about what your saying before you judge some people you dont even know.

[g1h1d1p1]

true christianity is not just asking God for things when u think u need them-true christianity starts with realizing ur true condition as God sees u-a filthy sinner not worthy of his kingdom-and being truly sorry TO GOD 4 wut u are and trusting and OBEYING JESUS alone 4 ur salvation-once u understand that he paid ur debt on the cross,flyleaf wont seem so great anymore.her false gospel leads people to believe their saved even though they havnt repented-u are all living proof-ive seen ur pages!

[omgilovemcr]

you didn't hear the whole speech. YOU WEREN'T THERE. go away.

[mrfgabc]

@g1h1d1p1

God doesn't see you as a filthy sinner. He knows You are but He loved you so much He sent Jesus to die on the cross so that you could have a way to be with Him in heaven if you accept His forgivness of your sins and His grace. You are made perfect and holy in His sight despite the wrong You've done. You can do nothing about your sin. So God said, I will.

[g1h1d1p1]

u also should ask urself y ur so against repentance.john warned everyone to repent and so did all the apostles at penticost in the book of acts and so did paul in his epistles-so y do u have a problem with me telling people to repent-its necessary for salvation-y do u wanna hide that from people-does it mean u would have to repent?trust me lil bro,its a better life anyway-i dont miss my old life of sin-i used to play in bands alot like flyleaf and i wouldnt trade Jesus 4 it ever-read luke 13:3

[omgilovemcr]

who said they were against repentance?

[g1h1d1p1]

just because u saw people impacted by a speach means nothing-people all over ytube were impacted by her speaches-did they repent?NO!!!!just look at their pages-with all the love in my heart,maybe u need to repent?if u are still listening to worldly music and watch worldly movies and wear worldly clothing and speak worldly-well then maybe JUST MAYBE ur worldly and i promise u ur making a big mistake if u thing GOD ACCEPTS that as true worship-its about wut God wants not wut we want

[omgilovemcr]

people were impacted by her speech in real life at that concert.

there were over 10,000 people there, and SEVERAL of them made the decision to follow Christ that night.

[g1h1d1p1]

btw omgilovemcr-ur page is worldly-lil waye?come on!its worldly and that is enmity with God-james4:4-stop kicking against the pricks all of u-God demands to be worshiped and praised the way he wants to be not like u and ur flesh wants to praise him-if u claim to trust God,then walk in HIS way not urs-this neoevangelicalism is going to far-the billie grahm crew is of the devil

[omgilovemcr]

you said "SATANIC," not worldly.

[omgilovemcr]

and you spelled "Graham" wrong.

[g1h1d1p1]

Jesus demanded that people repent the entire time he was on earth and still demands it and when u truly get impacted by Jesus,u realize its not about u anymore-when the desciples came to Christ,they left everything and did not return to their old way of life-flyleaf is dor those who say they want Jesus but really still want the world

[g1h1d1p1]

to all that think they are qualified to tell me what true christianity is,make sure ur ytube page isnt satanic first b4 commenting to me about what God demands from christians

[TheDanniShow]

True Christianity is believing and trusting in God no matter what, and having faith through anything, coming to him through times of need, and times when you just want to talk to him. And I'll tell you what it's not. It's NOT people on the internet DEMANDING people to repent and saying that this amazing Chrsitian music is Masquerading God and that people's pages are "satanic". I don't think that's the way you reach people.

[omgilovemcr]

whose page is Satanic??

[AllTimeLowObsessed]

I just went to this last night. Her preaching is just so amazing, it doesn't even seem like we're being preached to. And to the one guy commenting on like EVERY Flyleaf video, please stop. If you don't like them, don't trash them. They've brought so many young people to Jesus Christ. I was there. At Rock The River Tour. It wasn't fake or misleading, you could feel the love and at times the Holy Spirit around you. It was intense. Don't bash them for leading people to God. He wouldn't want that.

[g1h1d1p1]

real christians love being preached to-why dont u?is it because ur not?

[omgilovemcr]

i was thinking the same thing about you.

[g1h1d1p1]

to be woldly is to be an enemy of God-u dont think thats satanic?and instead of worrying about my spelling why dont u listen to some of grahm's quotes-i think its because u dont love the truth-u just care about how good u nfeel listening to a false gospel-because if u repented u would have to give up lil wayne

[g1h1d1p1]

by the way-"omg" is blasphemy-but i dont expect u to care-ull prob just make up some sorry excuse that it stands for gosh instead of GOD-right?

[g1h1d1p1]

btw why are so many so called christians taking the Lord's name in vain by using the "omg'phrase?dont u see that its blasphemy?do u even care?or is it all about how u wanna worship God when u wanna how ever irreverent u wanna do it especially by listening to this trash that masquerades as christian music?i truly pray that ur eyes will be open and u can experience the true love andMERCY of God and u can today if u repeant and believe on the tru Christ-not this false one charactorized @ this tour

[TheDanniShow]

actually, when my friends and me say omg, we mean it as in "oh my gosh". it could go either way.

[g1h1d1p1]

u lie to urself-u know good and well that gosh is just a pervirsion of God's holy name-now repent!

[TheDanniShow]

Then what do you want people to say? If we can't say anything, we might as well just say God instead. And if this is the way you're trying to get people to come to Jesus, I think you need a new plan.

[Savsmyman]

omg could also be oh my gosh.

[TheDanniShow]

How do expect anyone to be impacted by Jesus if it's not in a way they can understand? This music is perfectly fine and Godly, and doesn't masquerade Him in any way at all. How can you say that? And just for your information, I was there and saw many people impacted BECAUSE of that speech.

[g1h1d1p1]

this girl is spreading a false gospel-we are not worth anything we are not beautiful and wonderful-while we were sinners Christ died-God loved us despite our filthiness-until u come to God with this understanding,he will not save u-we would forever be God's enemies if not for Christ-in me dwelleth no good thing!dont let this false worldly little girl mislead u!our GOOD works are as filthy rags b4 the Lord-jesus gives us our worth having become sin 4 us-He alone gives us our righteousness-repeant

[TheDanniShow]

She's probably talking to those girls who feel so bad about themselves that they cut and feel like committing suicide, because that is what she felt. She was in that situation, and she knows what she would have wanted to hear.

[mewkitty4897]

Wow. She is soooo awesome. ^ ^ She makes an awesome point too.

[mojeefus25]

omg!!!! i loved this concert!!!!! what lacey said realy hit me though......

[CoralxxChaos]

Lacey sure can preach :)

[JeranBluehill]

lol xD I saw my phone... well it was an awesome concert :)

[dhsblaine]

omg it was soo good!!!

i was like almost crying when she said this

i had a gret spot to

front and center

[rockandrollprincess7]

man i was in front and when i was watchin and listenin to her i almost burst into tears i was saved listening to the song and that is why i think i did to hear the meaning of it

[TheBlankPage22]

Powerful speaker! Powerful band! I can't wait for Memento Mori!

[mariemorgan]

Her speech was amazing.. truly inspired me.

[omgilovemcr]

agreed.

[Evanescence67]

I love them! Everything Lacey said is so beyond true. I don't even know what to say...She makes me speechless. C= I can't wait for Memento Mori!

[omgilovemcr]

me too!

OMG yesterday (when this video was taken)

Lacey was like, "yeah so we just recorded the new album... no, seriously. we finished recording and then we came out here."

so the album is COMPLETE!

aldkjfasldfj ;

i'm just really excited.

:DDD

[Evanescence67]

I'm excited, too!!!!

It took them soooooo long, but it's FINALLY done!

*Fan girl squeal*

I can't wait!!!!!!! xDDDD

[JohnnyMayhem2008]

this speach, is what opened my heart and changed my life and helped me to become a true christian, i felt like someone was speaking right through lacey straight to me, i began to cry as i listened on the front row.

[omgilovemcr]

oh my gosh, me too.

it's like that everytime i see Flyleaf (in concert.)

she's a great speaker, and her songs have very good messages.

[JohnnyMayhem2008]

ive been living a life completely consumed with sex drugs alcohol and ive spent 5 years playing in bands consumed with drugs sex and violence, and a friend of mine invited me to come here, and i gave my life over to God that night, lacey helped open my heart. I wish i could thank her. maybe someday, i can play rock the river and give other people the same feeling and hopefully i can be an instrument like she was for God to reach people

[omgilovemcr]

oh, wow.

i'm very happy for you!!

and that sounds like a very good idea.

you can do it. [:

[JohnnyMayhem2008]

thanks, it feels good to have a joy that isnt drug induced, i wanna try to get my old bandmates to see God, but if that doesnt work im gunna try to put a christian rock band together, im gunna add you as a friend on here if thats ok, and id like to keep in contact cause i need to keep good company because i dont want to go back to my old ways.

[whatever22795]
