Aww...That was so touching...I have read that Parable before, but I didn't really think about it, and just skipped past it...It was really, really touching! Thanks Phil..I see God working in you!
P.S. AWW! This video was posted on my birthday, haha.
pinapplepee- you cant be athiest. because nothing cant create everything. To God be the glory. Jesus is the way the truth and the life, nobody comes to the father except through him.
You know, the main difference that I see between the Jewish and the Christians is the direction they are looking. You, being Jewish, are looking foward to the coming of the Christ, the Messiah. Whereas I, as a Christian, am looking back to when the Christ, the Messiah, has already come. I can't see any reason for you not to watch this video. Is there some little known detail that I may not be aware of that prohibits you from enjoying Phil's video?
thank you so much for that, i really needed to hear this. i have sinned against God and i am constantly telling myself that i am not worthy and that God could never love me and no longer wants anything to do with me but hearing this story made me realize that no matter what God still loves us. i really needed this so thank you :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing. This video was such an encouragement to me tonight. Thank you for sharing God's Word. I will be meditating on His Truth tonight as I go to bed.
I really needed to hear that...Thankyou Lord and thankyou Phil for being His messenger to me and all of us "its not about my lack its about God's abundance" i need to remember that always <3
In saying this Jesus also describes the Father in another powerful way- In the Jewish culture, a man would never run. It was improper & not respectable, yet in this depiction of the Father, Jesus is showing us that He throws away all dignity and humiliates himself to run to greet his loved son. How amazing that He really loves us so passionately, more than we could possibly comprehend, let alone return. This thing we are in now, life - it's all His story, for his glory. Amen to his abundance!
WHat can I say?!-PASSIONATE Followers of Christ~ NOt 'luke warm' Christians,but PASSIOANTE,HEARTFELT&HEARTBREAKING LOve for Jesus and for others~Our enemys JUST as much as our Friends.Lets not just sing& wait for God to'give us a sign'but let us walk in2 the rest of the world,in our towns&Our cities&ACTUALLy BE the Hands & FEEt of JESUS CHRIST!You may not know Jesus but Jesus Knows You and He Loves you with 'An Everlasting Love' So seek For Him With EVERYTHING&ALL Your HEart,& you WILL Find HimX
i really liked how you related the father running out to meet his son to how God runs towards us! wow :) reminds me of how "while we were still sinners Christ died for us" and how we aren't expected to have it together to accept God's grace we just have to decide to walk back to Him
my pastor was talking to us about this.. and its a really intense storry it realy says to me that god will take me no matter what i have and what i bring... i just love it
Right at 2:56 if you pause it there and look at his left hand we has a ring on his ring finger..........is he married? lol i just saw it and i never knew or he likes to wear a ring on THAT finger. LOL kk Bye Bye~~Mel
Thank you little brother, I call you little because your much younger that I am. You have been such a blessing to me today. I pray that God will bless you in your efforts to show the love of Christ to a lost and dying world. Thats the one thing that I noticed about you, right off your willingness to share your gift that God gave you with others.
HOW GREAT IS OUR LORD!!?? Great video, Phil - thanx 4 sharing the love of Christ - as you say in your song: His love is deeper than any ocean, higher than the Heavens, indeed it reaches beyond the stars in the skies and knows NO BOUNDS!!! wow...
Phil, I give glory to God for your amazing talent, and the sheer light of your soul, and the witness of God's blessings and grace toward you, and your amazing response to strengthen all of us believers. I hardly ever purchase albums from iTunes but your songs are too effective a trigger for me to become aware of the loving presence of God in my soul. Great teaching on the Prodigal Son. Never reflected on the Father running before . . . Thank you, and thank you Holy Spirit!
Good job Phil. That message really helps to shed light onto the meaning behind those lyrics- and it gives them a little more. I think you're doing a great thing for God's kingdom, and it's my prayer that you continue on in the Lord. Thank you for your music, for it has been an encouragement to me. If at all possible, I would like to contact you personally to share more of my gratitude- I think youtube is a little too public for what I have to say. Anyway, keep up the good work!
That is my 3rd favorite stroy in the bible, and i actually came across it this summer, and it changed me. It remnded me that gods love is always with us, and when we decide to come back to him, thats when we are in his arms again. And he welcomes us. :D Phil, you're amazing. Don't question it, you were meant to be a worship leader.
Just had to tell you that I picked up Cannons two days ago, and have not been able to listen to anything else since. "Home" is such a beautiful, honest, empassioned and inspired song that it had my hair-standing-on-end from the moment I heard it - and it has that effect still. Thankyou so much for sharing your wonderful gifts with us: "Grace" and now "Home" are two of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, and they're on constant 'rotation' in my head! Thanks so much.
just wanted to say that i really love your music, and is really cool when christian singers really take some time not only to sing and worship, but to share the word of God with others like you did. God bless you.
Awesome Phil, I can't wit to listen to your song on your new record.Thanks for putting so much thought and passion in your songs. It truly blesses us. listeners.
Great message,Phil. It's admirable that you seriously focus in on religion in your christian music; most other contemp. christian bands/singers will lose sight of the object to praise and glorify God,and the music becomes a means of personal glorification. You make manifest,in taking your time out like this,that you really do love God,and are making your music to point to Him.. up.
hey Phil...That was a great Message...I love how you take time out of your busy schedguale(sorry dont know how to spell that!!) and make these videos..to share Gods Word..I feel thats one of our jobs, here in this sinful world.......Share Gods word and to lead others to Christ..I love it...God Bless...
hi Phil, I know that you cannot speak spanish, but this is a challenge to learn it... gracias por compartir con nosotros esa lectura biblica es de mucha edificacion para mi vida, creo que todos debemos estas compartiendo la Palabra de Dios. Gracias Phil y que el Señor te continue bendiciendo y usando en su obra.
