Bible Collection: Solomon (1997) | Full Movie | Ben Cross | Vivica A. Fox | Max von Sydow

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back to my school. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real, it's impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me; it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!

Solomon is the best example that anyone can start good but end bad. His wisdom brought him to distraction. A man without God is nothing. Pride will bring you to distraction. Someone may speak of God’s word but only those who obey it are the true servant of God. Anyone can claim they’re born from above but only those who keep the faith until the end will share in the kingdom of God.

Vanity.....the first sin....he was perfect in all his ways until iniquity was found in him......Satan is very sneaky an will slowly creep into the smallest crack ....put on the full armor of God , thank you Jesus.!!!

Turning away from God is the greatest of mistakes! It only leads to pain and suffering. I was Born Again into the Body of Christ as a very young man. The trials and tribulations of life led me away. God lifted his protection and I suffered great losses, extreme pain and almost died. Only after loosing a son and my left leg below the knee from a near fatal accident did I repent and return to my Father in heaven through his Son Christ Jesus. Now everything I do is to please God and I do nothing I think might displease Him. God has returned His favor and for that I am eternally grateful.

“But here is someone greater than Solomon”...all glory and honour to our Lord Jesus Christ

The more I study the Bible, the more I come to the conclusion that a powerful, strong, and wise men have a weakness for women. Samson was trick by a woman, King David lust for a married woman, King Solomon married foreigns women and accepted their worships of other gods. Studying the Bible as an adult is way different than when I was a kid.

All our trials soon be over. No more darkness. Only light. Let nothing ever separate us. From the Holy Lamb of God.

Now I see God changed from his Covenant at the temple to place his Covenant in are hearts so if the prayer come from the heart God will hear it i got a learning disability and the Holy Spirit led me to the truth thank u God and Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit peace be with you and be faithful until death brothers and sisters 😇👼🥰

REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND !!!!!!!!

The devil is very sneaky but God is Wise and all knowing....Glory to God ❤

Just read 📖 book of 1 Kings.. To compare 📺 there are many additions and 📖 subtractions 📖 . Always read 👀 .. be careful ! Don’t just go by the 📺

Reading the book of Daniel will help all true Christians stay firm in putting all their trust in the Lord no matter what. He truly delivers.

There's a bit of Solomon in each of us, the temptation to worship the things of Creation rather than the Creator. May we all live in daily confession and repentance.

So many people saying how sinful Solomon was but this is the human condition, anyone can fall into sin.

I Fear one day that millions of people will turn away from god and go against him. There’s a lot of people forgetting about god and I think he’s about to show us who he is.

For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.

Solomon started out Humble just like King Saul but both of them eventually became Corrupt & Disobedient to God because their Power & Authority & Wealth Went to their Heads which is Always What Happens When People Take their Eyes Off the Lord & Start Focusing On What They Want Instead of What God Wants in Their Lives.

I Love these movies! They make the Bible Come Alive! GOD BLESS YOUS!❤

May the lessons of the past forever teach the leaders of tomorrow. GOD bless US all.

what God gives, he can take away, he has shown this time and time again and yet as Solomon says, "that what has been done will be done again." we must remember to be humble, give thanks to God, and live accordingly or else God will take away. let us strive to be more mindful.
