[CEFLOYD]

I went to see Pastor Bates preach in Corbin Ky he preached this very same message.he had a alter call for the lost and people needing prayer i went right up there and before i made it to the alter he called for all the youth to come up front and i stood there for 20min waiting to get prayer finaly me and some more left not getting prayer i pray the the other's that left was not lost and not saved.idont need man to pray for me i can go to God in my prayer closet.it was just the point how he didit

[horseshoe92]

@CEFLOYD The point is,,,you can call on God for yourself!! Others may have needed it more...Lets get our hearts on God and off ourselves!!! God knows the young people need prayer bad. If your a older Christian, we don't need a person to touch us, God see's our needs!!

[7pentecostal7]

Amen.......My Lord and my God......JESUS....

[nathan7727]

I was at this Campmeeting. I can see my wife and about 4 rows back when they pan the crowd when he's singing out "hallelujah". This night and the message moved my heart to come back to the calling of God in my life to preach the gospel. Just finished my first step in the Church of God licensing process. Thank God for Bro. Bates willingness to preach this message "in season". God used it to restore something in my life.

[prayerwarrior1995]

I smelled some haters...I've shabacked the Lord and no football or sport was involved. It is the holy ghost.

[krazeepreachawoman]

maybe alabama needs some real REVIVAL! He brought that message to SOuth Ga COG campmeeting a couple of years ago & the LORD brought the house down!!!!

[kerry53able]

what do you mean..the Lord brought the house down?

[krazeepreachawoman]

hahaha it's a southern figure of speech....means we just really really had an amazing time in Jesus!

[ilililhy]

he tell truth like it or not

[kerry53able]

he is just repeating the bible and stuff he has learned

[ilililhy]

As a christian we should talk like jesus pick up are cross daily and walk the walk jesus would have us to walk,cast out demons in the name of jesus and heal the sick in the name of jesus, but how can we do the works of jesus? (Faith?),but how do we get such faith? how? by hearing the words of the Bible,reading it and seeking God more than TV,sports,guys, girls,jobs,money,houses,cars. friends,fame,etc. and does that mean i have to stop the gossip of those i hate, and love them?love enemys,forgive

[kerry53able]

do you really believe the bible is God or the word of God? how do you seek God or a supernatural entity?

[ilililhy]

it`s very simple my friend,those that are in darkness cannot understand the things of God, the first step to know?accept jesus christ as your lord and savior by faith,ask him to forgive you for your sins and come into your heart and live in you and though you,ask him to become the real living savior he is,ask him to fill you with his holy spirit.the Holy Ghost will show you all things,the holy ghost is the 3rd person of the God head. jesus is just waiting for those who will call upon him .

[7pentecostal7]

@ilililhy ??????the holy ghost is the 3rd person of the God head ??????

How many Spirits are there? God the Father is a Spirit (John 4:24), the Lord Jesus is a Spirit (II Corinthians 3:17), and the Holy Spirit is a Spirit by definition. Yet there is one Spirit (I Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 4:4).

[ilililhy1]

@7pentecostal7 Jesus said to us: But the Comforter which is the Holy Ghost,whom the Father will send in my name,he shall teach you all things,& bring all things to your remembrance,whatsoever I have said unto you. ---John 14:26,THE HOLY BIBLE, KING JAMES VERSION

There is ONE FATHER,ONE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON & ONE HOLY SPIRIT (THE SPIRIT OF GOD);Yes these ARE three entities & THEY are ONE

[7pentecostal7]

@ilililhy1 Are there three Spirits in a Christian's heart? Father, Jesus, and the Spirit all dwell within a Christian (John 14:17, 23; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 3:14-17). Yet there is one Spirit (I Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 4:4).

[ilililhy1]

@7pentecostal7 Now you finally understand exactly what I mean! Jesus Loves you! GOD BLESS YOU

[7pentecostal7]

@ilililhy1 There is only one throne in heaven (Revelation 4:2). Who sits upon it? We know Jesus does (Revelation 1:8,18, 4:8). Where do the Father and the Holy Spirit sit?

If the Spirit proceeds from the Father, is the Spirit also a son of the Father? If not, why not?

If the Spirit proceeds from the Son, is the Spirit the grandson of the Father? If not, why not?

[ilililhy1]

@7pentecostal7 Jesus reigns on the right hand of GOD in all power & glory! And one day soon,it won't be long, Jesus will return,coming through the clouds in all power & glory,Within a TWINKLING OF AN EYE,He split the EASTERN SKY,For every knee shall bow & every tongue shall confess that JESUS CHRIST IS LORD OVER ALL,ALPHA & OMEGA,THE BEGINNING & THE END,AUTHOR & FINISHER OF OUR FAITH;Jesus told us to watch & be ready for no man knoweth when his LORD COMETH,BUT FOR MANY IT WILL BE TOO LATE

[7pentecostal7]

the doctrine of the trinity is nonbiblical both in terminology and in historical origin. It has its roots in polytheism, pagan religion, and pagan philosophy. The doctrine itself did not exist in church history before the third century. Even at that time, early trinitarians did not accept many basic doctrines of present day trinitarianism such as the co-equality and co-eternality of Father and Son. .

[7pentecostal7]

The first official recognition of trinitarian doctrines came at the Council of Nicea in 325, but even this was incomplete. Full establishment of the doctrine did not come until the Council of Constantinople in 381. In short, trinitarianism did not achieve its present form until the end of the fourth century, and its definitive creeds did not take final form until the fifth century

@kerry53able -_-

[lifepastor]

@kerry53able its called preaching!

[prayerwarrior1995]

say on paster bates!!! Glory!!!

[JoshuaW81]

The preaching is anointed I think the church needs some more fire though...

[kerry53able]

fire? the church needs more fire..? how about unconditional love?

[JoshuaW81]

Hmmm... seems like if you had a love and passion for God that you would be on fire and more passionate about his word. The church seems to have a audience mentality like most churches.. Its time that we as the body of Christ become participants instead of spectators... no pun intended just an observation..

[kerry53able]

joshua..i have always helped the poor and needy and given to the poor and needy..that is good participation...i am not a christian.

[JoshuaW81]

All those things are very admirable and they are all very good works. You mentioned something in your first comment about unconditional love and I was reminded of John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only beggotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.. That is unconditional love!

[kerry53able]

unconditional means ..nothing is expected in return or commanded or demanded

[JoshuaW81]

Jesus died for you and Jesus loves you...  :)

[lifepastor]

@kerry53able God's love for us is not the question, the word of God says that while we were yet sinner Christ loved us and died for us! The unconditional love according to man's standards is not God's standard. God expects us to "repent" or turn from our sin in order to be saved! God loves everyone who ends up in hell but God cannot lie and without repentance we shall all likewise perish!

[kerry53able]

sure it is..then when you become a christian ..things change and it's called obey obey or else..so much for unconditional love

[lifepastor]

@kerry53able what you really mean is tolerance right? You want the Church to be tolerant of everyones sin and lifestyle? Well it is impossible to be tolerant of sin, Jesus was not tolerant of sin. However it si possible to love the sinner and not condone their sin. How is it love if I know someone is going to die and go to hell and I do not warn them? How is it love if I turn my back on their actions knowing that God hates their unrepentant life? It is not love to tolerate it is hate! So repent!

[jamesgambrel]

tommy bates is awsome.great message here.the meaning here is to express to us who worship god to let out has god has made us.many times the enemy will tell us when were in church not to stand up and shout,not do that dancin,if u do that people are gonna look at u funny,but this message is showing us that no matter what joy that wants to come out of our spirit,just let it go,let it out,dont quench the spirit.great message.

[kerry53able]

you can shout and dance all you want to..but if you can't love unconditionally..what good is the shouting and dancing

[JoshuaW81]

Amen! How about putting them together and see what God can do!

[kerry53able]

well i am still waiting to see what God can do..i have been for many years...

[techboy1111]

@kerry53able The "shouting and dancing" is called praising the lord, mind you!

[ashantilongislant]

this congregation is surely booring! i like the pasrer!

[drrosson]

Maybe they are listening.Hard to hear if everyone is noisy

[Airforcebound12]

saw him at winterfest in knoxville he was great

[GregCollier7]

I love to hear him preach! thanks for sharing, Greg

[briannaclem94]

he came this past tuesday

to our camp meeting here

in kentucky at church

of god camp grounds and

he preached this same sermon.

but this video was taped the

week before that.

[kerry53able]

so he did a repeat? repeats are old and stale..its like watching reruns on tv

[CEFLOYD]

@briannaclem94 ..he preached the same sermon nov,2nd 2010 and most of the night he was asking for partners in to help him in his T V ministery .if he was called to do this God will supply all his needs.

[techboy1111]

@CEFLOYD I highly doubt that he was asking that "the whole night". Also, why did you go again the next day not expecting him to preach it again? I'm pretty sure he preached the same sermon again because maybe there were some new people compared to the last time?

[techboy1111]

@briannaclem94 So? Different location, same sermon. Hmmm, common sense may answer why he preached the same sermon... Not trying to be mean, but yeah...
