  • If copeland, Joel, meyers, or any millionaires, were to ask Jesus, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? Jesus would answer and say: go, and sell everything you have, and give it to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven, and come, follow me... Loving your neighbor with action, is loving God... not loving your neighbor with action, is not loving your neighbor... Peter had no money to give to the poor, but he had the gift of God to give to the poor... The true ministers of God are not rebuking the rich ministers with sound doctrine
  • I agree. In Matthew 24-25, Jesus is speaking privately to his followers, to warn them what to expect during the Last Days before his return -- world disasters,chaos, false teaching, Christian persecution--so they won't be afraid but to stand firm in their faith, wait patiently and be ready to make an account of their time while waitng for our Lord. These are words of encouragement to stay anchored in Christ. There will be no excuse before our Lord returns, Matt 24:14, for gospel will have been preached throughout the world as Jesus commanded us to do in Matt 28:16-20.

  • @srobearl
    Wonderful message to take to heart.
  • Que mensagem maravilhosa! um dos melhores, se não o melhor, teólogo do mundo. What a wonderful message! One of the best, if not the best, theologian in the world.
  • @dotosmelucio
    Thank you Pastor Carson for your wonderful message and interpretation to this text very clear
  • @scottkolz8527
    I'm looking for a topic he preached on in n.j it touched on the topic of timelessness in heaven. Can anyone help me
  • @k-mark9187
    Carson, always talking about his son hungry...lol. Best sermon illustration of all time! In all seriousness, this preaching needs to be passed down to churches and pastors as I'm starting to hear some heresies coming around recently that stems from a misinterpretation of the parables of the talents.

    Please Jesus in want to be a sheep.. I feel like a goat sometimes
  • "For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother." -Matthew 12:50 NIV Brothers and sisters, this is the "fruit" of the Gospel.
  • Didn't address the WORKS in this parable being tied to salvation. I was told that if someone accepted Jesus Christ on their deathbed then they will receive salvation. Can someone address this.
  • Would those brothers and sisters include those belong to Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox Greek Orthodox coptic Ethiopian orthodox Anglican Lutheran Presbyterian Methodist nondenominational groups Anabaptist groups Baptist. Many do not embrace each other as brother and sister because of party line. I know many churches serve churches in other countries that belong to their denomination but how many times have we heard of persecution of a group that did not belong to our denomination. Do we assist. Let’s say you are Baptist or presbyterian in a Methodist Church or an Anglican or a Lutheran congregation has some tragic event happened do you step outside your denomination and serve? This is why I don’t like the splits and denominational divide. It’s like….. I follow Luther, I follow Calvin I follow Wesley and on and on it goes. Today everybody has their favorite Bible teacher. The Lord is good and He does give us wisdom and direction in the way we should go. Praying for all in church leadership and ministries to lead and teach the flock under your care.
  • Still very relevant today - remind me of John MacArthur today who abuses so much power

    The church will be judged at the judgment seat of christ 1corinthians 3
  • @johnneufeld6019
    After the 7year tribulation period Jesus Chrisrt will judge the nations how they treated his brethren the jews . The church is judgment seat of christ to see if they get a reward
  • @johnneufeld6019
    The judgment of sheep and goats takes place to see who enters the 1000 yr reign. That's why these amil have no clesr teaching 😅
