  • Jesus is my lord, my savior, my everything, my rock, and the love of my life.

    ....all this from an IMAGINERY person.

    The stupid, it hurts....

  • Great series, Lane! I've created a Playlist for it! I've been missing many of your excellent videos, so now I need to go check that new feature to get your vids as soon as you upload them.

    John 6:26-27 & the feeding of the 5,000 is surely text that the Prosperity Gospel/Health & Wealth Gospel/Blab It & Grab It heretics have conveniently overlooked. And I ESPECIALLY enjoyed Part 4 of this series.

    Thanks again for your faithful & continuous strivings! Five Solas High Five to ya! :o)

  • @craigmac40 Jesus quoted more of the Old testament than anybody else. God is unchanging, what He has expected from man has never changed, it was always a faith in Jesus that has saved man. Who did Abraham have faith in? Jesus. Read 2 Timothy 2:19

  • People who have flat noses, or is blind or lame, cannot go to an altar of God (Leviticus 21:17-18)

  • If a man sleeps with his wife and her mother they are all to be burnt to death. (Leviticus 20:14)

  • The only question I have is: "Who do you think Jesus really is?"

    

  • he (JESUS) is the life

  • "Adam was created to enjoy God." True, but this end is totally subordinate to a higher end, namely, the glory of God. The message here seems to be influenced by the likes of John Piper who makes pleasure seeking our top priority. We were not created to pursue our own happiness, we were created to glorify God even at the cost of our own happiness! That's called self-denial. True, these two are inseparable, but still happiness is merely a by-product of our chief end and interest: the glory of God.

  • @InSlaveryToChrist this message certainly glorifies God, why do you feel the need to try and correct it, see the spirit of this message not just the words, your name might better be,"in slavery to words" praise God who sees the heart and knows our thoughts and still loves us, bless you in Christ, Peter

  • @InSlaveryToChrist How can a true Christian glorify God at the cost of his own happiness? To glorify God is what makes a Christian happy. If self-denial is grudging, it betrays a heart that doesn't want to glorify God.

  • @timeforcute I know it's not possible that glorifying God would cost us our happiness. But still, that should be our mind-set as self-denying and God-centered beings. I seek my blessedness in God, not because I'm concerned about my own happiness, but because I'm concerned about God's glory. As Christ would say, "My meat is to do the will of my Father." Christ delighted to sacrifice Himself so that His Father's will would be satisfied.

  • @timeforcute I agree with you there. The Christian, in their new hearts, want to ultimately obey God. Sin is vile and disgusting to us because it offends the Lord. His will is not burdensome, on the contrary, in it is true happiness is found, not that the goal is happiness, but when God is most glorified, we are satisfied. Great point.

  • @InSlaveryToChrist happiness, or to use a more biblical term, blessedness is the state of all those who Jesus speaks about in Matt 5. it is a blessedness that starts at the peace we have with God as revealed by Paul in Romans 5:1

    Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile. Psalm 32:1-2

  • @InSlaveryToChrist you are right that we aren't to look for own happiness-that is happiness that comes about by our own doing, or according to our own making. but it is an entirely different matter to seek after that happiness which is to be found in and by Christ. the requirements of what it means to seek after Christ-taking up the cross, self-denial-will be found impossible by one's own efforts. but a wonderful thing occurs by the power of the Spirit working in his elect.

  • when the Holy Spirit causes our hearts to be renewed within us; to know the love of God towards us; to having been made to taste, as Peter says, that the Lord is gracious; it will not only create in us the desire for the sincere milk of the word; but with the unction and even thirsting after everything that is the Lord-his way, his truth, his peace, his love, his life, etc. the denial of self will be an after thought, as the love of God rising in our souls, causes us to be as is shown in

  • Song of Songs: "...if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love." Songs 5:8b

    Jesus is our example of what it was to deny self. he didn't do it begrudgingly; but willingly. not only willingly, but longingly as he told the disciples: "..With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:" Luke 22:15

    in truth, self-denial is the by-product of love; always has been, always will be.

  • @HermitintheRain What's your point? Self-denial by definition is love because love by definition is God-centeredness.

  • Thank you for another great video.Jesus is King.
