Prayers from Pakistan

"Ex nihilo nihil fit" - out of nothing, nothing comes. If ever there was a time when there was nothing, then nothing could ever exist. ~ RC Sproul

My heart goes out to Jesus what witnessed in Jerusalem and how His heart must have broken when He lamented for the lost. By your grace, l never cause you to shed a tear. 🙏

On his way to the cross Jesus said to weeping women O daughters of Jerusalem Weep not for me But weep for yourselves And for your children!

Awesome message. 🙏

Very well said Mr. Barhr. AMEN.

I especially appreciated the ending. I can't stand the ugliness of many worship spaces today. As he said, of course we can pray and worship anywhere. Many Christians have to rent other types of buildings because they don't have their own. And, of course, Christians in many nations have to meet where they can. But where we have the choice and ability to do so, we should make our building/space beautiful!

Why was Jesus so burdened in His heart looking at Jerusalem that He wept? He felt so hopeless for His very own people who were facing eternal destruction. He could not do anything to save them but seeing their destruction unfolding in front of His eyes. He came but for the last time seeing His very own to be casted away soon. Yes, Jesus could not do a thing to turn His very own around, but was seeing them soon to be falling into the abiss. We are made by Christ, nothing is made without Christ. Yet He sees us falling into the abiss, yet He could do nothing, but only weep while He was watching them as He entered into the holy city. Job was praying and making sin offering for his children daily, knowing that they had continuously sin against God. He must have wept for them too. Jesus said in John 17 that only those whom the Father had given to Him were kept by Him. None was lost. But those that were not given to Him, Jesus said He didn't pray for them as they were destinct for destruction. Jesus said that He could do nothing, apart of those that are the will of the Father. Jesus could not save His own people. Jesus wept as he saw them and could do nothing to save them. How would we feel when we see our own love ones rejecting Christ to be their Savior? Our love ones may be doing very well or very poorly in this world, but seeing them stubbornly rejecting Christ, how would you feel? How should you feel? WEEP! WEEP! WEEP! in hopelessness for our love ones. I think Jesus felt the pain cutting into His heart entering the holy city for His very own rejected Him.

Calvinists are clueless about the fundamentals. Why should they be trusted on anything?

Yes because chosen, predestined, elect, my sheep are not in the bible. So many ignorant about Augustine, Luther and John Calvin. 🙏😊🙏

Another great sermon by a faithful Protestant reformed minister now in glory with the Lord. But yet we are left with the faithful ministry of this devout child of God. A true Calvinist who loves the truth of Gods word. Unlike the Arminian Remonstrance preachers who continue to peddle the lie.
