Gospel of Jesus Christ Video pulled down from Facebook!

I made a video of the Gospel of Jesus Christ using Bible verses, text and music only. The music was old classical stuff by Bach. It was taken down from Facebook, and I no longer can upload new videos, although the videos I had already posted to Facebook are still there. It amazes me that they can allow so much nonsense on the internet, and yet the most important message in the world, that has eternal consequences for your life, is not tolerated. But then, the Gospel of Jesus Christ is offensive, God tells us so. It is written:

Isaiah 8:14 “And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem”

However, no worries, I can still post videos to YouTube and other social networking sites, and I can still post videos into Facebook via YouTube.

Here is the video that was pulled down by Facebook:

Here is my YouTube Channel.

If you like my videos, please pass them to others, and subscribe so you will know when I make a new one. I also have Christian friends on YouTube that make videos too, and I encourage you to watch them and to pass them on. It is a easy way to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ: just email an evangelistic video to your friends and post them to groups and to your profiles in social networking sites.

Rom 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

War Stories 2008/04/09 – Are there demons in cyberspace?

I viewed a YouTube video of someone reading from the Bible, and that person was reading it in a way that was not pleasant to hear. I think the person was an atheist, or maybe a satanist. I was told by an ex-satanist that atheists who are familiar with the Bible are likely to be satanists. When I viewed the video I felt very tense in my chest. I prayed to God for help, told Him that He is in control, and that whatever happens to me is up to Him. I felt slightly better and then I had an idea of reading from my Bible the same verses that the person on the video was reading. After I read those verses myself, I felt better. Looking back, I suspect that a satanist filmed himself, and used the video as a way of casting a spell on the viewer, and what God guided me to do broke the spell.

Another time I viewed a satanist group profile on Facebook. It was not scary, but I felt scared, which was really odd. Again, I prayed to God to help me through this fear, and I felt better. I joined the group to post a couple of my evangelistic video tracts. The next day, I got a message from the administrator asking me to take my video down. I replied that he can take it down himself. The next day it was taken down, and I left the group.

I think that there are demons in cyberspace.

There are positive feelings in cyberspace too. I like it when people post nice comments on my profile. Some profiles I visit in Facebook and Friendster make me feel happy. There are angels in cyberspace too.

Brothers and sisters in Christ, the important thing to remember is that Jesus Christ defeated Satan by paying for our sins on the cross. If we have repented and believed in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, then we have been redeemed, and therefore are now adopted sons of God. For this reason we can boldly pray to our Heavenly Father. It is written:

John 1:12-13 “But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”

Our Heavenly Father will always look after us. It is written:

Rom 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.”

God bless,
George

War Stories 2008/3/18

I have been on YouTube for about 6 months now. As of today, 6:26PM, I have had 6,065 views of my YouTube videos. I must have responded to over a hundred video comments and private messages. However, I have yet to know of one person who has been converted. Maybe I do not pray enough? Maybe I need to reach more people? This is a common experience from people who do evangelism. It is very easy to be discouraged at this point, and to give up. So it makes sense for me to explain to you, dear reader, why I am going to carry on.

Matthew 28:19 “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”

There are 3 action words here: Go, Teach, and Baptize. So was this command obeyed? Go: I made the videos on YouTube. Teach: The videos were viewed over 6000 times.  Baptize: none. Well, two out of three. The last is difficult as people are baptized as a profession of their belief in the Gospel. However, God is the one who causes a person to believe. In the passage below, Jesus speaks to the people: 

John 6:39-40 “And this is the Father’s will which hath sent Me, that of all which He hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of Him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.”

It is the Father that causes people to believe the Gospel. By sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we obey the command of our Lord. The Word of God always fulfills the purpose for which it was sent. It is written:

Isa 55:9-11 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”

God is in control. Let us trust God, and obey His command…

1 Cor 3:5-7 “Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.”

…and God will provide the results.

God bless,
George
 

The Christian Challenge : I believe in a thing called love

Dear Readers,

I would like you all to support Emily in her project. Please send videos to her and email her words of encouragement. She has been sent negative communications by many people on YouTube (who are hostile to Christianity) for starting this project.

I believe that her efforts will encourage other Christians to share their faith! If you have not shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ before, then do so now! Make a short video, post it to YouTube, and reply to her video with your video.

God bless,

George
