What I see here is a person preaching the Gospel. He's very interested in the people that are far far away from Christ, but those people are very hunger about God . And he preach for that people. I understand that maybe those tattoo can shock, BUT he's preaching for people that most probably do not want to come to churches . I think that he really love that people ..maybe more than me. God bless and help you , pr. Cleetus . You are a soldier in a big battle.
jesus loves everyone no matter what.and people on here are talking about not judging.well he is who he is no matter what jesus loves him just like he loves everyone of us.his heart is in the right place.i have tattoos and I go to church and people dont judge me. im there to worship and listen to gods word.
its so sad that everyone watching this sermon is so focused on being right or wrong on the tattoo subject, that they have completely missed the fact that Pastor Cleetus just preached an amazing word. And this word that God spoke through him has reached people that some churches would never take in. It's not about having tattoos or not having tattoos, its about the power of God! And its about Jesus Christ finally being brought to a lost world, and a lost generation. Be blessed
i see your point, but unfortunately it is about that. I have several tats and i'm a youth pastor. I go to school in oakland; i'm writing a paper right now on tattoos. interesting. God Bless.
Well that would be the extremist veiw of tattoos in general, and it would be a vallid point if it stayed in that arena. Unfortunately you won't be able to see any further than that.
Lev 19:26 Lev 19:27: It was to the people at the time. Read those two verses. So does that mean nobody can have a medium steak? Or everyone has to have full beards? No shaving anymore! hahaha.
wow!that was amazing!!!i'm 17 and i'm from Argentina and we need more pastors like u who can understand all the subcultures that are appearing.God bless u sooo much,i'll be paying for you.
Pastor Cleetus, i wanna be like you, i am a youth leader now.... but i am dreaming to be a pastor someday.... i like your sermon, and i wanna touch young peoples of my city and my country.... i really want to change the image of youth now a days...... please pray for me Pastor... Also pray for my country..... thanks a lot for that wonderful message... and i believe, Jesus will work though me... -Michael
How come it's more easier to judge rather than to pray? if i were u pray and dont judge,.. for God will judge you... think about it, i,m not condeming you,.. i just want you to see the truth,.. i,n not excused in that matter,...
You don't even know what it means to "judge" someone. When the Bible says "judge" it means to condemn somebody, which I'm not doing. I'm sure he means well and he does good things, but a strong Christian doesn't need gimmicks to get attention, because the Bible is powerful enough without your silly tattoos.
hahaha....now i get it. so you have heart issues against tattoos!!?? have you ever sat down with Pastor Cleetus and ask him about his tattoos?? or why he has them??
Weak and gimmicky preaching? Sure, he isn't talking about all the evil that could, and will happen, but he's speaking the word of God. The whole point of Jesus coming here was to redeem and save us, and redemption is a very positive aspect of Christianity. And may I remind you of "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Jesus is giving a positive message about reaching out to people, and it's far from gimmicky preaching
It has nothing to do with talking about evil, and no he isn't speaking the word of God. He's rambling about his own opinions about youth culture. He uses some obscure old testament verse as a jumping point for his message, instead of focusing on actual New Testamet scripture like a real preacher.
Okay, sure, good point. I even somewhat agree, but one thing that bothers me is that you said "Instead of focusing on actual New Testament scripture like a real preacher." Yes, most of what we have learned in Christianity is through the New Testament, but that does not mean we should disregard the Old Testament all together. I have heard only a few sermons preached about Leviticus in my whole life, but what about Proverbs, Psalms, Ecclesiastes, the history and people in Israel's history?
If you can't see the connection of the OT to NT then you need prayer the whole of Scripture points to Yeshua as Messiah. The verse is not that obscure I have heard many a preacher use it. Reformed Baptist, Non-denominational, pentacostal, Dutch Reformed, etc. He is preaching the word of God the whole Bible is the Word of God, sola scriptura. The Gospel is repentance; turn away from your wicked ways and turn to Christ with all your heart..
It sounds to me brother that you need to examine yourself and see that you are in the faith and ask God to open your eyes to His truth in light of Scripture. Peace to you Brother and I am praying for you
wrong man, Cleetus does'nt pull any punches when it comes to preaching repentance and the need to turn from sin. Checkout his website, "all or nothing" and "God spitting out the lukewarm" are central to his message. And that is not a feel good message man, thats the "oh man, Iv'e gotta sacrifice my lifestyle" message, but after you do that..you'll feel better than you ever imagined possible.

Like all of these New Wave Christianity groups, they use cliches, t-shirts, physical gimmicks and *emotion* in order to keep people interested and feeling involved. This New Wave stuff is merely a symptom of people's boredom and discontentment. The website proves this.
And I never said the Old Testament shouldn't be used. It's great for context, and there is a lot of wisdom there. But he is cherry-picking some convienient verse instead of focusing on the New Testament like he should.
dude if you can show me that invisable people ie. jesus and the devil please show me . and i mean real proof not just saying he exist,s that doesnt count.if we can prove that egyptians exitsed thousands of years ago with writin word in srone! than how come jesus and the rest where not able to do the same?
Tell me in the bible where it says you can teach someone how to prophetize? We should not judge each other, and if you believe in Jesus then you are on the right path.
