May God bless you, and may the Holy Spirit guide you in all truth. May God comfort and strengthen you in your difficult times and use your loss as a great gain. Praying for you🙏

I'll be watching. God is good!

Im a big fan of your work and I hope you continue

I count myself very fortunate to be one of those who have benefited from your ministry. God has revealed Himself to me in many ways, and you are one of the those ways. Thank you for remaining faithful to God, despite your hardships.

Glad to hear you're doing well. Looking forward to new videos.

Thank you for all of your work.

1 Corinthians 16:13-14 [13]Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. May the Lord God Almighty bless you more as you honor God and the Lord Jesus' testimony. Discovering your channel is God's great blessing of truth.🙏🤗

Thank you for your ministry, brother. Keep up the good work

I ran into the same ad issue. This is what I settled on. If you are a KZread partner as you stated you get a fraction of the ad revenue. What you may not know is that if you are a partner you have control of when the ad appears on the video if more than 9 minutes long. You can designate the ad appear before, during or after or any combination of the three. What I do is limit the ads to play at the end of the videos over 9 minutes length. Whatever the channel earns 15% goes to taxes and the rest goes to missions. I am able to not cheapen the message by having ads appear before or during the video. Just something for you to think about.

That is some really great information! Thank you! As for me, I do not receive any revenue from ads. I decided that I don't want to receive any income from this channel. I am fine letting KZread keep it all. But your option is very good! :)

Thank you for fresh perspective on the KZread ads. Looking forward to new videos.

I want to thank you so much for all the knowledge for me to consume about pre nicene Christianity and Jumpstart my full on quest to prove and renew my faith and practices. I mean I research this stuff daily and anytime I have free time. I'll be praying for you and your trials but also for the channel. Thank you so much again and God bless you my brother.

you are a great guy and very knowledgeable. I knew there must have been something keeping you from doing more, and a bad relationship makes perfect sense. I'm really interested to know more about you in the future, and looking forward to your videos. God bless

Thank you for your teachings. This is been a huge help to me to see what the Early Christians got together and share the word of God. Please continue in this way. God Bless You and I will pray for you.

Appreciate your good works. Pray Gods Blessings, Peace and Wholeness for you.

Stay strong, Brother. What you've been through is no joke. Been there, you're not alone.

Good to hear you're back!

Many thanks for the videos on the early church and church history!

A Christian author can write a book that shares knowledge whilst still charging a fee to cover production costs and for sustainment correct ? Likewise, I think even if you wished to accept ad money from KZread to aid in video production that would be perfectly fine in my opinion. However, if the holy spirit convicts you not to, that’s cool. I am impressed at your dedication to provide an accessible resource. Your ministry truly is a blessing. Glad to know you are doing well inspite of your trials. God Bless

Thank you for the encouragement and support, brother! I would not say that I follow a certain Christian group. In all my searching, I haven't found that the Pre-Nicene Church exists today as it did in those first centuries. As for me, I attend and worship and serve and teach at a local congregation. I encourage everyone to find a church family where they can be welcomed and where they can serve God.

@@bropeterdimond I think there were two significant problems with the Council of Nicaea. Firstly, it was the beginning of the marriage between church and state. That marriage didn't happen at the Council of Nicaea, but that council began a dangerous tradition where the government became involved in matters of the church. Because of that, it didn't take another 100 years for the church to change some of its basic teachings, such as idolatry (icons) and Christian in military service. Those things did not exist before the Council of Nicaea. Secondly, the council made it popular to "anathemize" groups people, kicking them out of the church as heretics. At the Council of Nicaea, the point of the council was to declare Arianism as heresy. The point of another council not long later was to declare the Nestorians as heretics. Did these groups have an inaccurate view of the nature of God? I believe so. But who gave them the authority to kick people out of the church just because they believed something that the Bible does not make clear? Personally, I don't think it was Christ-like to kick people out of the church because their theology had some differences. I could understand doing that if someone was involved in sin, but not about theology that the Scriptures do not make clear. In conclusion, the Council of Nicaea was the beginning of these new traditions. And I believe those traditions did far more harm than good to the church.

can you make a video about polycrates of Ephesus?

Im blessed to find this Chanel! I wander what pre nice-an believers said about the Shabbat the day of rest? If there is any information I would be greatfull to find out thanks

Thank you for commenting. I plan to make a video about what the Pre-Nicene Christians believed about the Sabbath, but it will be a few years before I get to that. I can say that they believed the same thing as what Paul taught in Col 2:16 and Rom 14:5-6. In my own words: the Pre-Nicene Christians did not observe the Sabbath like the Jews did. They viewed all days to be equal in the areas of work and rest. But there were some early Christians who observed special days of fasting. For example, they would fast a day or more before Pascha (Easter). But each Christian decided for themselves what days they would observe. God bless you!

@@HCA777 Thank you very much. I think the point of the passages (especially Rom 14) is that they go both ways: Christians are not to judge other Christians for keeping the Sabbath day and Christians are not to judge other Christians for not keeping the Sabbath day. :)

I'm sorry you have gone through that trial. I am going through one as well. I find it hard to lean on Christ while going through tribulation such as this. But, this passage helps me out: "Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world. After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you. To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen." 1 Peter 5:6-11 Remember, your experiences are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world. You are not alone.

I also had a couple Scriptures that I relied on to keep me focused on God and His will. You're right: we are not alone!
