“My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints. Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path; for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul; discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you, delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech, who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil, men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭15‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I think denial versus a lack of understanding, are two different things as well.

"At 71, I started my own YouTube channel to share short stories from my life that reflect on faith, perseverance, and gratitude. This has been a journey of growth, and I draw inspiration from channels like yours that spread hope and the word of God. Thank you for being a light to so many!"

"How much error can I believe, and still be saved?"
"Not sure, we'll see on judgement day."

By their fruits you shall KNOW them 🧐

You can KNOW

We were saved at the moment when our ERRORS were the MOST PROFOUND!  "When we were yet without strength Christ died FOR the UNGODLY"!

Funerals are to comfort those left behind....

1 Thess :4:13-18
But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as indeed the rest of mankind do, who have no hope.........
... 18:Therefore, comfort one another with these words..

Amen Amen Amen. This is so needed and convicting !! Thank you

How much error can you preach, and still be saved?

Ephesians 2:5
[5] even when we were dead in our wrongdoings, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

This was an amazingly written question

I really love this man. Been listing to him for decades. My favorite Pastor of all time like John and CS Lewis. And Johnathan Edwards.

Dear Pastor John, on April 15th, 2024 I heard you on Family Radio the Question and Answers on how to train a child and how to help them to listen to parents and you gave a few steps, would you be able to post that on this Desiring God Channel. I left work today wondering how I am go to teach my 15 years old son to listen to my request. I yelled at him and demand him to listen most of the time. The minute I turn on the radio to Family Radio and there -------> you are teaching on this topic. I said - oh Lord , thank you for teaching me!

"depart from me, I never knew you"

"If you love me, you will keep my commandments" John 14:15 - this is life, it cannot be ignored. John 14:21, Rev 22:12-14

Amen pray for me job or help my church and family please

I think the better question is this,

What do we believe in God for? What is the object of our faith? What do we seek to see? What do we believe for? Has he transformed our lives yet? Be honest with yourself.

Amen,thank you 💞🙏
