What does the speaker emphasize about God's forgiveness?
-The speaker emphasizes that God's forgiveness is available to almost the entire population, and that even if someone is deep in sin, there is still hope for them if they call upon the Lord and express their desire for Him to be the Lord of their life.
Why does the speaker believe that the mark of the beast is not relevant to the teachings about the unpardonable sin?
-The speaker believes that the mark of the beast is a concept introduced in the book of Revelation, which is about the very end of time, and was not known or taught by Jesus or the apostles during their time, thus it is not relevant to the teachings about the unpardonable sin.
What does the speaker suggest about the timing of the mark of the beast?

How does the speaker respond to the concern about the mark of the beast being an exception to God's forgiveness?
-The speaker responds by explaining that the teachings about God's forgiveness were given without any mention of the mark of the beast because it was a prophecy for a much later time, and thus should not be considered an exception to the forgiveness offered by God.

Outlines
π Addressing the Fear of the Unpardonable Sin
The speaker begins by addressing a common concern among Christians regarding the fear of committing an unpardonable sin. They mention previous videos on the topic and acknowledge the psychological torment many believers experience due to this fear. The speaker emphasizes that Satan uses this fear to torment people, suggesting that if one is worried or depressed about having committed such a sin, they likely have not. The message is clear: God's forgiveness is available to almost everyone, with the exception being those who completely reject God. The speaker encourages viewers to watch the entire video for scriptural references and reassurance.
π The Universality of God's Forgiveness
Continuing the discussion, the speaker reassures viewers that God's forgiveness is available to the vast majority of people, regardless of their sins. They argue that only a minuscule percentage of individuals who have completely turned their backs on God would be beyond forgiveness. The speaker references biblical passages, particularly from the Gospel of John, to emphasize that God's love and forgiveness are extended to the entire world. They also address a viewer's question about the mark of the beast, explaining that the scriptures would have been worded differently if the mark of the beast was a condition for salvation, which it is not.
π Clarifying the Concept of the Unforgivable Sin
The speaker clarifies that the concept of the unforgivable sin was taught by Jesus and understood by the apostles, but the mark of the beast, mentioned in the Book of Revelation, was a later revelation given specifically to John. The speaker explains that the apostles, including Paul, preached the gospel without knowledge of the mark of the beast because it was not part of their teachings. The focus is on the availability of salvation and forgiveness for all who seek it, without the stipulation of the mark of the beast, which is a concern for a time much later in history.
π Overcoming the Devil's Deception About Salvation
In the final paragraph, the speaker reinforces the message that anyone who desires salvation and seeks to follow Christ can achieve it, regardless of past sins or actions. They argue that the teachings of Jesus and the apostles did not exclude anyone from salvation based on the unforgivable sin or the mark of the beast. The speaker encourages viewers not to be deceived by the devil's lies about being beyond redemption and to embrace the hope and forgiveness offered by God. The video concludes with an invitation for viewers to like, subscribe, and engage with the content, emphasizing the love and blessings of God.

Transcripts
hey welcome back today i want to do a
video and i want to address a question
that was recently asked to me on one of
our other videos
uh
when it comes to salvation being lost in
the way that satan attacks people
um i have a feeling or to me it seems
that one of the things he attacks the
christians
most most with
is the question of the unpardonable sin
the unforgivable sin or the sin that god
will not forgive
i've done two or three videos on this
and one of the latter videos i did
and last time uh
we was doing this sort of thing what i'm
getting ready to tell you we experienced
some technical difficulties because we
didn't have a very strong internet so if
it allows us to do it my daughter will
be putting that uh description or that
little um video up where you can see it
and click on it and you can watch it if
you've not watched it
but it's one of my most watched videos
on this subject
and so today i guess this is probably
about the fourth video i've done on it
but this is to answer a question
but the other video was one of the has
been one of my most watched videos
uh in since we've been on this channel
but that's because people today
satan knows that's a tool he can use and
he uses on a lot of you
a lot of people he convinces or he tries
to convince
if you have done the sin that god will
not forgive
then there's no hope for you a lot of
people are tormented in your mind you've
commented and made comments on these
videos that you know you're you're
weeping or you're you're feeling down
you're feeling depressed because you
want to get back to god but you don't
think he will forgive you
well
in the video and i urge you to watch the
whole video
because
i use several scripture references in
there and i won't use them today but if
you haven't if it's not able to be
posted up where you can see it during
this video then we'll try to put it in
the description box so if you go down
and check that out you can go to it and
watch it
but
uh what i wanted to say today and this
question came up of course i will
briefly summarize what i said in that
video
that
if i tried to explain to people and i'll
just maybe do this in about 45 seconds
how that
satan used that on me a long long time
ago
and god showed me then
and
since then i've seen it ever so clearly
that if a person
is afraid now this isn't even saying
technically i'm not even getting
involved in what the sin is
and here's the reason why
because god basically let me know
through scripture
that if a person
is afraid they've done it if a person is
worried they've done it if a person is
depressed they've done it if a person
wishes that they haven't done it but
they think they have
you have not done it
the only people and it's very very very
minute number
the only people this would apply to
are people that want nothing to do with
god and will never want anything to do
with god now i'm not talking about
people that maybe just are in sin today
and not really thinking about god
there's hope
i'm talking about someone that has maybe
given their life over totally
to the devil and have said lord
they want nothing to do with god
okay
and again
i honestly think
that the percentage of people that
applies to
is very very minute
it might even be when you consider the
whole world's population less than one
percent
and you say well what does that mean
when you see all the sin and and trouble
and things that are around us in the
world today what does that mean
here's exactly what it means
god's forgiveness is there for the
basically entire population
god's forgiveness is there
for people if you're
deep in sin if you're covered in sin
if you feel like you're at the bottom of
the pit in sin
there's still hope for you
just call on the lord tell the lord
you're sorry
tell the lord you want him to be lord of
your life
you do that
and you'll find happiness you'll find
god will forgive you
so when you look and you say well only a
small very small number
maybe 0.2 percent
and again what i'm telling you that
means is
that
god is there
for the entire world basically
okay now here's what i said
in the last in that video
i said that if
when you look at the scriptures in the
new testament
where jesus began to preach
okay
he began to make statements all
throughout the gospels john 3 16
for god so loved the world that he gave
his only begotten son that who so
ever
believeth in him should not perish but
have everlasting life
okay there's other scriptures that jesus
said
he that believeth on me out of this as
the scriptures as he has said out of his
belly shall flow rivers of living water
the apostle paul taught on on these type
of things that he that that calleth the
day would come that he that calleth on
the name of the lord shall be saved and
what i said in that video and like i
said go back and watch the whole video i
would appreciate it
because you'll you'll be able to write
these scriptures down and all the ones i
gave but basically what i said was the
scriptures
would have had to been stated
differently
for example
for god so loved the world that
whosoever or he gave his only begotten
son that whosoever believeth on him
except those that have committed the
unforgivable sin
shall be saved
or what about he that believeth on me as
the scriptures has said out of his belly
shall flow rivers of living water except
them
that have committed the unpardonable sin
now
that's what the scripture would have had
to said
now i really appreciate this question
that this person asked
and really it was almost too hard to
explain
in
a uh an actual
just a response
so
i want the person to know to watch this
video because i hope that they get a
little bit more out of it
but here's what the person asking it was
a really good question
because they asked me they said they
they really they was troubled by this
and they said we hope what you're saying
is right and we want to believe it
but they said they talked about the mark
of the beast
and they said
by what you're saying though they said
wouldn't the scripture also have to say
jesus say for example let's go back to
john 3 16.
for god so loved the world that
whosoever gave that whosoever believer
okay let me say this again
i'm doing this right off the cuff so i'm
i'm thinking ahead and getting some of
my verses let's just say it like this
and i'm trying to think of how to say it
to incorporate those so for god to love
the world that he gave his only begotten
son that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish
but have everlasting life except those
now this person said except those who
have committed the unpardonable sin and
except those that receive the mark of
the beast
so the person was saying
by by the way i was saying it
wouldn't he had to have included that as
well
that you know the apostle paul talked
about today that the lord would uh you
could call upon the name of the lord
shall be saved except those that have
received the mark of the beast
and this person said
wouldn't that be included as well
by your thinking okay now here's here's
the difference and here's what i want to
tell tell you and
uh for the individual if you're watching
today
i want you to understand what i'm saying
if you want forgiveness god is there to
forgive you if you want to be a follower
of christ you can be if you want to feel
the power of god you can okay but now i
want to answer your question
when i read that question come across
i knew
i knew i wanted to answer it properly
and i thought lord i want you to give me
the answer that
would really help him i don't want to
just you know fumble around at words or
whatever
and the lord revealed it to me just like
that
so here's what i want to share with you
now i will set it up by saying in case
you're unfamiliar
you can read over in the book of
revelation where the bible talks about
the mark of the beast it will be applied
or will
people will have to take it
or refuse it and this will be something
that happens at the very end of time
at the very end of time i heard a person
say
several years ago
oh yeah the mark of the beast is done in
effect i thought lord lord
i mean where people get these things i
do not know but it's not in effect
but let me let me say it like this this
happens at the very very end of time now
john the apostle told about this in the
book of revelation at the very end of
time
so
right before the lord returns
so we don't know when that will be we
don't know when that is we don't know
how long from now that will be but it
will be at the very end of time
okay now
i'm trying to uh
sort of get you working understand what
i'm saying
when jesus began to preach
from the time of jesus's birth to now
we're a little over 2 000 years
this
the mark of the beast that john spoke
about in the book of revelation now when
john wrote the book of revelation all
the other apostles
and all the other disciples had done
left the scene
they had actually all been
killed at the time
john was the only one left at that time
he was only only one that you read about
in the new testament out of the
disciples and and the apostle paul john
was the only one that was left
god gave him that vision
john and john alone and he penned it in
the book of revelation
okay
now
when i was praying about lord how do you
how's the best way to respond to this
person
here's what god showed me
when john wrote that
number one it was concerning the very
end of time
it might it might be something that
takes place three months before the lord
returns
it might be something that takes place
you know
five months two months i don't know but
it will be at the very very end of time
we don't know when that is
we don't know all we know is that it's
at the very end of time
but when they begin to preach the gospel
of christ when jesus began to preach and
when the disciples began to preach when
the apostle paul began to preach
and all of these people began to preach
the word of god
okay jesus was the one that told about
the unforgivable sin
but at the time he was preaching
no one
on the earth listening to him
had heard about the mark of the beast
when the disciples were preaching when
peter stood up on the day of pentecost
when peter preached after the day of
pentecost no one had ever heard about
the mark of the beast
when the apostle paul preached in the
book of romans no one had ever heard
about the mark of the beast why because
that was something after everyone had
left the scene everyone had been
martyred
john was the only one left god gave john
a specific vision of the end time
and again we don't know when that is
you know they've been we've read about
it for many years and it might be
a hundred years from now i don't know
the bible tells us to occupy till he
comes and that's what i'm going to
preach and teach
but we can read about the things that
the scripture prophesies about
but the point that i'm making is
no one knew about any of that that was
something god gave john john wrote it
down and now we read it
so
paul couldn't have preached
uh to the church of corinth
about the mark of the beast because paul
had no clue about that because
john had never even wrote it down yet
god had even given to a man
but
paul knew
about the unforgivable unforgivable sin
peter knew about the unforgivable of
unforgivable sin
jesus preached and he had done spoken
about the unforgivable sin
so what i'm saying is when they was
preaching they could not have said paul
couldn't have said whosoever would call
upon the name of the lord shall be saved
except those that have taken he couldn't
have said that because he didn't know
anything about it
but he did know about the unforgivable
sin
and what paul said was whoever will call
upon the name of the lord
shall be saved that's what i'm telling
you today okay i want you to understand
the whole part of what i'm saying
if you want forgiveness if you want
christ in your life if you're sorry for
something that you've done if you're
sorry for the lifestyle you're living in
if you want to be saved
you have not committed the unforgivable
sin
and that's why i told i told it in a
previous video i said i'm not even gonna
go into what it is because here's the
thing the people that have committed it
will not be watching this video
and like i said it could be less than
one percent of the whole world's in
population if it's even
that
the point is whoever wants to be saved
that's why we say that's why the apostle
paul said if you won't call upon the
name of the lord you can be saved
he said you know when jesus went out and
he healed he healed that man that was
demonic possessed
he didn't say you're beyond salvation
he healed the person he forgave the
person
so what i'm saying today is they could
have all easily have said
if you want the lord
you can be saved except unless you've
done that no they never said that jesus
didn't say it peter didn't say it mark
didn't say it paul didn't say it and why
did none of these people say it because
they knew
that if you want the lord in your life
if you want to be right with god you can
be you've not if you are sorry if you're
if you're worried if you're scared if
the devil is telling you you've done it
you have not done it
there's still hope today jesus christ
can still
rule and reign in your life and be the
lord of your life
so don't let the devil trick you and
don't let the devil tempt you and tell
you listen you've done it because that
that's what as i said i believe
basically the entire population today
anybody that wants christ can have him
anybody that wants to make it right with
god you can do it don't let the devil
trick you and tell you that you can't
because i stand behind
what i know
the lord showed me
was that they would have had to have
worded it different
that
whosoever except those that have
committed the unpardonable sin now the
reason why jesus said that whosoever
shall believeth on him was because jesus
knew that if you want to believe on him
if you want to be a follower you can be
that's why he said that
i hope this video helps you and it
really clears up the question because
the person asking it was a good question
but they asked wouldn't the mark of the
beast have to been
included in that but no it was something
for a latter time
at the very end of time
so why was they even going to preach
about that then
you know they didn't even know anything
about it they couldn't have preached
about it but they didn't know what jesus
taught
and jesus never said if you want me
if you want my spirit if you want me in
your life
but you have committed this you can't
hit me no he said if you want me you can
have me if you want christ today you can
have it i hope this has cleared it up
just a little bit and i hope this helps
those of you that are troubled by this
because if you are don't be and again i
hope that other video is popped up if
not we'll try to include it in the
description box remember god loves you
god bless you if you enjoyed what you
hear please like and subscribe to this
channel if you're new here and give this
video a thumbs up
