'I was a "male" enveloped by guilt because I was stamped a sinner. My message couldn't be received because I didn't represent the sender, yet I was almost delivered.' SO DOPE!!

2023 and I’m still here. I listened to this for the first time 10 years ago and it feel the same and even more impactful 🙏🏿🙏🏿

“we all worked in sin and death was minimum wage but if it wasnt for Christ we wouldve almost got paid” wooowee thankyou Lord💯❤️

Good job to the poet Ezekiel Azonwu. Some people can't help but to be critical, they ALMOST listened to what you said.

We all worked in sin and death was minimum wage- but if it wasn't for Christ we would have almost got paid. POW !

6 years later, seeing this again & its like the first time. Still Awesome.

Well said."Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven"..Mathew 7:21 ...

I feel like this is me most times...almost saved. I keep praying that God draws me closer to him every day so I can truly live....For him.🙏

10 years later and this still goes hard as yesterday!

2023 and it’s still just as powerful. Bring back the P4CM movement!

This is incredible.

Yes!!!!!! Glory to God...This brother right here is the truth!!!! Conviction at its best right here that will stir up sorrow in your heart and push you to repentance and change your ways and surrender ALL not All most to the Lord!!

He came to my school this week to do a presentation :) He was amazing

Wow! I want to be fully live a real Christian life. I don't want to be denied access into heaven for having had entertained the world and fleshly pleasures. They mean nothing cz they're the devil in disguise. May God help us and remind us daily to live right as Christians. May God bless P4CM to continue this beautiful job.

Heard this maybe 8/9 years ago, came back to it because Jackie Hill Perry mentioned it on their podcast. Literally still as good as when I first heard it.

God be the Glory he speaks threw you Ezekiel. I've watched this I don't know how many times. Please make more heavy hitting poems they are so inspirational to us.! God bless everyone watching let this flip over your boat so you have to walk 😀

This beautiful and on point....."I surrender Al.......most ....."

A lesson learned: When it comes to salvation, almost doesn't count. You either got it or you don't. You either believe 100% or you don't believe at all. There's no in-between. It's all or nothing.

He knows you're too beautiful and too precious to suffer in life, and he wants to set you free.

All I could is wow this dude is for real I have always loved poetry but never heard it like this, God is using him Greatly.😊😇😇😄

P.O.W.E.R.F.U.L! This poem has a heartstumping message that speaks to me on levels I cannot express. Thank you Lord for this vessel of yours

oh my...I absolutely love this. I too have done spoken word but am now sleeping on it. I got bogged down by school and in classes where I felt I could not measure up to other poets. I could not interpret the writing. I realized I am more of a spoken word type poet. I pray I can write and speak on a subject that will influence people spiritually, like this young man did. He is straight preaching the truth! I just love this..Very inspirational...spiritually and as a poet...He was hitting it at every angle and allowing God to use him!

This is such a phenomenal piece! I know it's old but I love it! Can't wait for "Poets In Autumn" to come to my town!

even my spirit is pricked with this!!!

To the person below i say tht to myself all the time by far the best poem i have ever been blessed to hear sick man God bless

It's about feeling a true joy, and being able to abandon (if needed) all earthly ties. It's about faith, and being certain of what you have no proof of. You might think it's a shot in the dark, but it was the best decision I ever made. Don't listen to people who tell you God is this judgy, hateful being, He isn't. He loves you so much, and sees you so beautifully, with so much potential. He wants to show you what you can do, and bless you. But He can't if you don't let him.

Thank You Ezekiel! You is telling the TRUTH! #Almostdoesntcount!

This NEVER gets old!!!

Ezekiel Azonwu's poems are really great. Salvation is not a one time thing. Salvation is a life time of repentance, faith, and good deeds. Faith without works is dead and work without faith is dead. He is an orthodox christian even though he don't know it now.

I'm back here in 2023, This piece changed my life!!

Still an incredible poem

So on point!!! This is awesome, love it

" we have all worked in sin and death was minimum wage, but if it wasnt for Christ we would've AMLOST go paid"!!!!!! Thank the the Lord!!!!

We've all worked in sin and death is the minimum wage, but if it wasn't for Christ, we would've almost got saved. Powerful words.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 That was deep....This is a true "Saleh" moment.

no words 😥😥 this is incredible

Very convicting. Thank you for this brother.. God bless..

13 years later and this poem still hits like the first time I heard it!!!! 💪🏾🫰🏾

man, i heard this back in 09 and was a hi brotha. God bless you, sister but sick private life for many many years . i lacked so much in my walk and never found a good or reliable mentor so i stayed that way until i Almost lost everything. i created so much chaos in the life of my wife and children that was unnecessary. i had /have mental issues im still seeking help for but now its a battle ive surrendered to the Lord he will come through with his promises i must remain obedient through it all . im so thankful for Gods, Mercy, Love, Grace, Patience, Gentleness,Instruction,Forgiveness,Redemption,Selflessness, Though im suffering the consequences for my actions God is like don't do it again dummy focus on me ill pick up the mess you made trust me. To God be the Glory .

This Spoken Word is Manifesting in 2020 more than ever before. Christians really need to hear this again and again, shoot, I throw myself in there too. #endtimes #wakeuppeople

mhmhmhmmmm still my favorite piece !!

Simply amazing...I'm speechless

"Death was the minimum wage, but if it wasn't for Christ, we would have almost got paid." I ask for more grace upon your life. God bless you.

i was a male (mail) enveloped by guilt because i was stamped a sinner my message couldn't be received cause i didn't represent the sender yet i was almost delivered. fire

I don't understand what is it that the Bible says that Christians don't get.. . That's the religious strong holds on your mind but Christianity is NO RELIGION!!!..... "Religion is humans trying to work their way to God through good works. Christianity is God coming TO men and women THROUGH JESUS CHRIST".....if the Bible STATES this is our only way to salvation, this is our only way to the father who are we not to submit to his word?? Who are we to question his word?? Even after Christ Sacrificed for you. Do as many charitable things as you please but it profits you nothing in regards to the kingdom. You can't ALMOST have faith. You either believe Christ died for your sins or not and if you do....then you strive daily to live according to his word and die to your flesh.

Man this is so good, He has motivated me to step it up in how I live my life for Christ, not almost sold out but completely. The Lord definitely knew I needed to hear this.

"No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, (NOR ON KZread) will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

That was ALMOST the truth. We are saved through faith alone in Christ alone. We are most assuredly called to godliness and holiness once we are born again. We are not saved by our good works. Which this poem strongly implies. Romans 4:5 "But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness." Belief in the Lord Jesus Christ and His death, burial and resurrection and trusting in that for your salvation is what saves.

We don't do good works TO be saved. But we do good works BECAUSE we're saved. Faith without works is dead. The good works are still a part of the Christian walk

I absolutely agree, but look at the title of the video..." Almost Saved," you are conveying the exact opposite message of faith alone in Christ alone with the title and the poets assertion that one is "almost saved" because of works.

Let me ask you all this!!! Do you all keep all the LAW ...? The ENTIRE LAW. If you break 1 you break ALL ? Does anyone live perfect ? Do you have a thoughts that go against God and his Holiness ? No I didn’t think so, can we stop making this message about how we live ? At the end of the day your saved because of what Jesus Christ did ALONE ! Not how we live ... there are ppl that sinned against God and he still declared them righteous... the “ ALMOST saved “that he really means is wether we believe that or not ! Not by our works or actions.

"We have all worked in sin and death was minimum wage, but if it wasn't for Christ we would have almost got paid" Wow, amazing.

We all worked in sin and death was minimum wage......BUT IF IT WASNT FOR CHRIST WE WOULD HAVE "ALMOST" GOT PAID!!! Powerful AND PROFOUND!!!!

For the 86 of you who disliked could you please explain way

One of the most dangerous terms in English diction. If it could be translated into audio, it would sound like (pbpbpbp) From the saxophone of Lisa Simpson. Two words designed and strategically combined to form the biggest oxymoron in the history of mankind. All. Most. But see, as far as the world is concerned, you could live your life foul and could almost get away with murder if you have a nice smile. You could almost meet folks just to almost sleep around Then stop at your local clinic. Well, you almost had a child. See, almost is no stranger to Satan. Here's proof. He only tells lies when they're almost the truth and its amazin' And on incompleteness, we find complacence. But if almost is one of Lucifer's many traits, then we are inadvertently good, that's Satan's impersonations. But on the contrary, Christ did his job fully and He proved He was God when He died on the Cross like it was His duty And to pardon my iniquities that I committed rudely, He resurrected from the Grave just to tell death to excuse me. But excuse me, this is your life and that's something I can't impose on, But your body is God's home, which was alone to get foreclosed on. See, an almost Christian looks right, but lives wrong. Can't stand the conviction in Romans, so they sit down to be comforted in Psalms. Never understood worship, but loved to sing songs like "I surrender al....MOST!" Cause its far too expensive for you to spend your life on something that doesn't appeal to your five senses. See, nowadays, Christianity's like a louie rag, No functional use but we just rock it cause its stylish. Not righteous, but right-ish. So now all God sees is a pile of Ish-males (Ishmaels) when he intended for Isaacs. We're moved by how we feel, so we're saved when we feel like it, So technically we've never really been saved, we merely tried it. So no wonder why we're never sold out when we return it after we buy it. Now, let me break it down because you need beware that your life could lack the very standards that need to be there Cause on that final day of judgement when God's receiving His heir, Will He say "Son, well done" or "puh, medium rare" Cause even by worldly standards, it would be highly insane for you to start spending all of your money days before you almost get paid Like, parents, you wouldn't send your kids to a school that's almost safe. Hey ladies, would you really date a man who claims he's almost straight? And this is the very thing about God that we all try to get around But His standards are like between two mountains, no middle ground. So a half way life is unprofitable to you cause after all the Sunday services, Bibles studies and prayer meetings, and everything that goes between, God will say I never knew you. But that's not even the worst part of living your life as neutral Its that you were once octic, but its your warmness that is causing Him to spew you. And this is the very thing that had me, I was bound and held down by the unforgiving gravity of my spiritual reality. I was a Christian, or at least I portrayed the fantasy with a filthy personal life, but a "God bless you brother" "How you doin' sister" personality. I was a male enveloped by guilt because I was stamped a sinner. I said, I was a male enveloped by guilt because I was stamped a sinner. My message couldn't be received because I didn't represent the sender, yet I was almost delivered, till that one day that I totally absolutely and completely surrendered. I took heed to a modern profit who proclaimed it was time for change Now I'm now longer bound to sin. Point blank. Off the chain. You can ask Umar Abdul Mutallab, he'll tell you the same. You don't almost go to jail, when you almost blow up a plane. Like you don't almost go to hell, when you almost get saved. Despise the cross that He was slain and thus the cause in which He came, But don't worry, I'm almost done. But before I leave this stage, We have all worked in sin and death was minimum wage, I said, we've all worked in sin and death was minimum wage, But if it wasn't for Christ we would've almost got paid.

Well the holy spirit was speaking through him, when the holy spirit speaks, you can't control how you react. I am laying in my bed and because of these spoken words, my body jumps by itself like something bigger than me is controlling me and goosebumps run up and down my whole body. When the holy spirit is in the room, there is no telling what a person will do, and when you react it will be the real thing not almost.

Everybody in the world needs to see this video. I've watched it over and over and over. ITS SOOOOO GOOD!!! "Ladies would you really date a man who claims he's almost straight?" lol I love the Lord!! Im a real Christian and I posted this video to my Facebook page 2 times.

Jesus.... bananas first off! dat almost (saved) gave a def answer to if you saved.. love it.. I decree & declare that God will abundantly increase you in Him.

This poem was extremely deep the life I'm living feels like it's so idol now WOW! I thought I was living right but now that I look back I wasn't and if it wasn't for Christ I would already by in hell. Thank you Jesus me being on a teen I still am trying to live a blessed life while also living a teenage dream but now I know I gotta make a change!!!

This brother is out here reaching souls and helping people to evaluate their Christian Walk. Get out of Religion and doing church and get in Relationship with Jesus!

This was dope. You can't watch this and not feel the need to reevaluate your life.

You are a dangerous man...JESUSssssss!!!! It is evident that the Spirit of the Lord is upon you. May God continue bless you ABUNDANTLY in all that you do Man of God. Continue to let the Lord use you in a mighty way.

This made me rethink my 25 year plan to give me my "deserved" happy life I grew up a missionary kid, and have backsliden because my parents divorced, my mom abandoned me and my family fall apart no matter how appealing I made my new plan all about me, i watched this and can't convince myself to continue thank you for giving it to me straight, im tired of all this cotton candy american christianity.

The youth pastor showed this clip to the young ppl last night at my church! after it went off, you could hear a pin drop in that room! It hit thenm & me so hard in the chest, I was convicted from that point on. This is real talk he spittin!

You repent of your sins and believe that jesus christ died on the cross and rose three days later as the savior of the world.

This man just gave a 7 min synopsis on luke warmness and exposes it's detriment . Wow!! The psalms and romans part was so the truth.

Just found it yesterday and can't stop watching it! This is so true everybody needs to hear this.

Romans.......aahhh, my favorite book in the entire Bible.

Excellent minstry! I was truly ministered to. Loved it!

On that final day of judgment while God is receiving his air. Will he say son well done..or medium rare. *The hardest..and realest bar to date.

Remember listening to this the first time during a men meeting back in 2012 Meanwhile performed it myself a couple of times already 😇 mof JUST did it from the top of my longs in my room!! Just love the fire and the double entendres in this poem🔥💯❤️

Amazing. Heard this at church today and BAWLED like a baby. it really hit home.

we showed this at our youth class and everyone was ministered in one way or the other. i love this its awesome and REAL! thanks for the words that some are afraid to say, your blessed! =]

One of the most Life changing videos anyone can ever see. Praise God for blessing this man with talent and him using it to glorify the Kingdom. Amazing !!

This is very good, very on point. I'm 61 years old and it means everything to me to see the younger ones so advanced in faith.
