3 Basic Types of Friends

[MrSolyne]

some people are fated to meet each other, but not destined to be together. People will hurt you, talk about you, and hurt your feelings. Along the way, you'll lose some of you friends and gain some more. Through all this drama, you'll finally open your eyes and see who's not worth a second of your time and finally discover who your true friends are.

[susanwingate]

Wow. Great words.

[yediyah]

@puluvas I'm not into belief either, but what he was saying is true, you have to watch who you call your friends..

[theevilgeniuz]

damn this is what im going through ppl who i thought were my friend catching feelings they claim i ignore them and they acting like they want war its almost like god wanted me to see this

[eshanna77]

Thank you that blessed me!!!

[JustUploadingVideos]

This just opens my mind to the kind of company I'm keeping. It's a sad but truthful revelation....

[sharr166]

Powerful! Thank you God!

[4hommie2]

I see what category that YOU are in... should have know since April 2010 & especially 8/25/10. After years of feeding you, you began to DRAIN me! It is/was hard but as soon as I let Go & let GOD things start happening...

[TheJeanessa73]

[brownshood]

[RSPENCER4200]

AMEN....THIS HAS TOTALLY ANSWERED A PRAYER IM SO GLAD I GOT THIS

[AngelicVoiceEnt]

this is great

[AlwaysShout]

Such simple things told in ways that open your mind and allow you to see things differently. These are the type of people who should run our societies.

[MsAllmadeup]

My God!

[TheReeree83]

It's the truth, this message changed my life, and opened up my mind and eyes.

[holiroler]

Sk00tchies*

[holiroler]

Wow!!! That's awesome. To the comment from stitches about "nothing biblical about what he's preaching..." it is obvious which type you are. It's not always about being biblical, there are motivational, life lessons. A basic good way to live, that's healthy.

[trackpalmer]

true



[mrsdee83]

He is simply describing the types of people that we encounter in life...everyone breathing can relate to this...

[WilSylvince]

amazing! 

[carielle18]

amen...!!! I'm so blessed hearing these message. Now I will be careful of the people who's being with me. God bless!

[yvree]

this is indeed powerful and inspirational. now i get to know who's who in my life. who's true and who's not really a part of my life but will be part of my life jst for a certain purpose. thanks for this. God is so good that he never let us be alone in our journey in this life.

[thinther2u]

What a mighty word! I feel like this was meant for me to hear today! Praise God for His MIGHTY WORD! :-)

[goodgooglegoo]

ALWAYS A POWERFUL MESSAGE - and A DAILY REMINDER

[trublacklove]

This post was meant for me!! It speaks volumes to what I'm going thru!! Nothing he said was wrong!!

[mwhyte23]

It's a blessing to review some great teaching of being a better PERSON!

Some people were only meant to stay in our lives for a few seasons. It's unfortunate, but should not be looked at negatively. Move On!!

[WoundedEgo]

Joseph, in the Hebrew, wore a "long" coat, not a "coat of many colors."

[diutobaby]

@WoundedEgo check again.

[Pallandoii]

A good lesson to learn as soon as possible. I myself have confused types 2 and 1 quite recently actually.

[hotdrumchick]

This man is truly a soldier of God.....I am blessed to have more confidantes in my life than anything else, and I keep them very close.

[OptimaMusicGroup]

"I'm comin out head first!"

[wanda2004]

Amen

[supadavesgirl]

amen.... he couldnt of said it better i luv luv luv t.d jakes!

[puluvas]

I'm an atheist, but there is great wisdom in what he's saying.

[y6010]

@puluvas You are awesome for your honesty. May ___ Bless You

[crazygirl27831]

@puluvas Because there is wisdom in God. ;-)

[mt0808]

this blesses me every time I watch this. God has been reminding me of this lesson that I thought I learned a few years ago, but I glad I found this video all over again. Thank You Lord!

[mccu777]

That man had my attention the whole 8 & 1/2 minutes. I keep this handy, & listen to it when i need reminding...often

[streetsensebooksmart]

HE is a BLESSED MAN!!! THIS IS TRUE!!! HOLLA!

[DarcyAchari]

simply amazing

[TheEve30]

My confidant is my fiance!

[mrscarmelbabe1]

Luv It...TD Jakes sets the record straight!

[1Keke4eva]

THANK YOU GOD!!!! I KNOW MY CONFIDANTS!!!  AMEN!!!

[jazzmin926]

As usual... HE is right on time!!

[lito420]

im glad i seen this... i love the message... some people are truely not your friend they just use you as a stepping stone to feel better or to feel a void of some sort... soon as theyre happy they forget about you and move on with there own life.. sucks. but its life.... i really needed to hear this.

[liatkins1]

Beautiful message. Eliminate prejudice and learn to be friends with everyone.

[cpon111]

How can I get this teaching on DVD?

[ColaBling]

Interesting cos I can't trust a single soul on this planet. So sad as I always almost get devoured. Somehow I always seem to escape in time. Amen. So I need to gain a trusted confidant...where they at I need one...would be heaven to have one to place humanity back into my life. Jesus is the only one in my life.

[rosmarlyng]

Amazing!!

[RestingInChristHands]

One of the best sermons I've ever heard. DEEP!

[BrokenTengu99]

Truth.

[WARRIOR4CHRIST70]

Preach Preacher!!

[Braztx]

Great teaching!!!!

[BIGRICK219]

I HEARD THAT



[brooklynflatbush]

OMG! THIS IS REVELATORY! THANKS BISHOP JAKES> GOOD STUFF!

[Jnstl04]

That's awesome!!!

[jimisru]

and so most of us go through life surrounded by comrades and constituents responding to our opinions, and nothing more.

and there's a deity who made this happen.

That is depressing.

[monkeys350]

@jimisru WE brought sin into this world... We can only do our best to take it out, but most of Us don't try, which is depressing.

[OilCityTattler]

@monkeys350 So if we don't sin, Jesus died for nothing.

Also if god created everything, god also created sin. God created our desire to sin, and god created us not wanting to try to avoid it.

[monkeys350]

@OilCityTattler Ten Commandments?

[jimisru]

Why do these gods send misery in the first place?

Couldn't they just not send the misery, being gods and all?

Also, people confuse me. They say one thing, but mean another. So there you are standing their being all happy for them, and they're just being dramatic or running some agenda.

[sarahcolemanmusic]

CONT.: Now you have a crowd of individuals who feel surrounded by enemies turning back to their leader totally freaked out. To me this smacks of the beginning of a mass witch hunt in an effort to gain power (be it psychological and/or financial) and there is nothing compassionate or peace loving about that.

[sarahcolemanmusic]

CONT.: His tactic of catching everyone off guard by having them turn to their neighbor beside them and DEMANDING to know if they 'are happy for them' really seals the deal, because at least 2 thirds of the audience will simply have a bewildered look on their faces that suddenly they are having to switch their focus from the preacher to the stranger beside them demanding a response and the other third will look into those blank faces saying "AH HA! I KNEW you hated me!"

[sarahcolemanmusic]

This strikes me as a standard religious/financial tactic - he starts off making the crowd feel empowered that he holds the secret to success and because he just LOVEs these folks so much he is going to share this secret of success with them (a secret he's presenting as being rooted in Jesus' teachings) but ultimately he is creating a psychological wave of paranoia spreading out through his audience leading them to feel more clingy and supportive of his "church" (cha CHING!).

[neosoulfuljojo]

I want to meet his minister. He's inspiring!

[neosoulfuljojo]

Thank you sooooo much! I need to go back to church! This inspired me and touched me and....THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!

[tuki1boo]

This is very powerful people need to hear this right now alot of people just dont know.

[MiamiTaylor914]

Amen friends are only for a season depends who they are, this nothing but the truth

[MyEyesAreUpHere]

thank you for giving me hope that there is actually a person of faith, in a church, who can reach me on such deep levels that it has redeemed my belief that i can actually find a church where i can feel like this. what a wonderful blessing for me on monday! keep keeping it real & from God and you will always have many blessings!

[00587649]

[higginspublishing]

This is an awesome message, and should be applied in all aspects of life!

[tm54life]

This man know he can preach when he wants.

[galeyrobins]

TD Jakes makes it plain. Thanks be to God who is not like his creation but is so much more than even a confidant.

[MrGiovannihale]

I am passing this on to my network. Someone today may need to hear this message. The message is timeless and relevant in this social age we live in.

[sassynsingle4now1]

This is one that I really needed this today....

[soSpecialK14]

@ sportslady I wholeheartedly agree with you. For I am a child of destiny and it was by no coincidence that I received this word and interpretation of Pastor Jakes. I am blessed>

[mainforce88]

MY FAVE SERMON...

[sisterquintella]

I recently told a friend how happy I was that God spared the life of somebody that I had been praying for and I was shocked at his reaction. Then God blessed me with the answer through this video. I thank God for T.D. Jakes and this video.
