Mila Kunis will shock you with these four things. She says about guard, firstly, the Bible is full of great stories. And we'll have our WeatherTech, the theme of The Bible because it's a very itchy theme for several people and I'm not religious and I was okay with them and I don't think the theme is the Bible. I think it's just about Faith and Hope. And, you know, if looked at the right way that is, what about
the Bible is? Just a lot of stories that they're supposed to make you a better person and inspire you. It's when you start over analyzing, it is when there's problems. But if you truly be the Bible, it's just a lot of really great stories. This is my surprise you, but I actually agree with Mila Kunis. I believe that there are a lot of people in the world right now, who are over analyzing the Bible.
You see God made the Bible made the scriptures so simple that even a small child could understand it. But hey, now, I do disagree with Mila Kunis. On this point. The Bible is not just full of a load of great stories. It's full of a load of great, true stories. See, my experience from speaking to people, for the last decade on the street has been, this people will believe anything, But The Truth, Listen to this.
The time will come. When people will not put up with sound Doctrine instead to suit their own desires. They will gather round them. A great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears from the truth and turn aside to myths if you're not a Christian. And can I ask you this question? Do you feel that Christians like myself are constantly preaching
to you our message? Well, if you believe that, may gently just say this, it's not just Christians who are preaching a message non-christians. Also preach their message. Oprah Winfrey. What's her message? The universe will save. You Elon Musk. What's his message? Technology will save you. Jeff Bezos. What's his message? Money will save you. What's Richard Dawkins message science. Save you Greta Tom Berg Mother Nature will save you. Beyonce music will save you Kevin Hart.
Laughter will save you. Everyone's got a message. And yeah, when we say our message is that Jesus Christ on the cross died for Sinners. That's the only hope we have. How do the people of the world respond? They say, are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? How can a man, a carpenter 2,000 years ago, leading their dying on a cross? How can that save anyone? And yet the Bible says, Everything hinges on that moment. When Jesus Christ cried out.
It is finished. I've paid the price for Sinners and if you think that the Cross of Christ doesn't make any sense. Did you know this? You're actually described in my Bible. The message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us, who are being saved, it is the power of God, okay? Number three, life is fleeting, but I think do it, would you ever go to graveyards and think? Oh, it's Life is so fleeting and you should like sell. Hey like do you ever think about death?
Like what do you think happens after you die die. Yeah he why do you dye your diaphragm breathing? Well yeah I need a Prezi called the physical but what about the metaphysical? What do you think happens to your your thoughts and your very bad number of years ago? I was sat in my mother's garden and we started talking about age and I remember I'll never forget it. She looked at me, very solemnly and said, you know, Joe, I blinked and I was 50. I wonder if there's anyone
watching this video. Now you can say those same words. The Bible says as for man, his days are like grass as a flower of the field. So he flourishes for the wind passive over it and it is gone and it's Place, remembers it. No more life is so brief today. We have strength but tomorrow will be frail. And when we look in the mirror, every single day were reminded that were decaying that we're not getting any younger and life. Is running on faster and faster.
Can you think of any sports star that's able to play on into the 40's? Their 50s know, their best years of their 20s and 30s? And then when they've done everything they can for their team, they're discarded and usually quickly forgotten many men and women, poor all they can into the corporation or the company they work for and then when they reach 50 60, the becomes a great pressure for them to retire because they cannot keep up with the fast pace of this ever. Changing world.
My dear friend you do not need me to tell you that your fracture. And in 100 years time, every single one of us will likely be forgotten. But if we put our trust in the Lord, Jesus Christ, if we lead others to him, the Bible says, we will shine like the stars forever and ever. Can I ask you, have you committed your very brief life to be Eternal God of this universe. Hey now, did anyone else notice that when Craig Ferguson the interviewer, when you Really
press tour with this question. What happens after you die? Did you notice what Mila Kunis did? She changed the subject. What did she say? Do you believe in God? Now I could be really wrong about this but I do. Wonder, did she use that particular question? Because on her mind? She was wondering, well, yes. What does happen after I die. If God is real, then I'm going to face him and if I have rejected his son, then what these Christian seem to teach
means that I'm in big trouble. Maybe I'm About that. But I do believe that every man, every woman has a conscience and we like to try and suppress our conscience. We either like to make God very, very small, very insignificant. This nice old grandfather in the sky or we like to dissipate God completely and say doesn't exist at all. Because if we get rid of God, we then get rid of our accountability. And that means that there's no Eternal judge who will face when we die.
I mean, think about this, if you're a bank robber, would you buy a house next door to the chief constable? Your town of course you wouldn't because you get found out and likewise The Sinner, who has not yet put their trust in the Lord. Jesus Christ. They want to say, I want to run as far away from this police officer. I want to run far away from this judge because I don't want to get caught. In fact, some go as far to say, the police officer doesn't even exist.
That brings us on to number two. The second coming of Christ. Yeah, I think I do. What about you? I don't know, I think I don't know. Is a better answer? I don't know. I can honestly say, I don't know. Yeah, I think, I believe in something. I don't think that we are the center of the universe. No, I don't think. I can't tell you about the second coming of Christ or Jesus that although, I don't, you know, anybody that. But maybe there's something out
there. There has to be, I think that if you send up or down, I don't know if I believe in like you go up in the clouds. If you go to heaven or you go down, you know that I don't believe I am thinking wishfully here, but if I had the The privilege of standing next to Mila Kunis, and Craig Ferguson. I probably say something like this Mila. It's very simple. I know the film that you are in called The Black Swan, which won many awards were just like every Swan starts out as an ugly
duckling. The message of the Bible is pretty similar. He see every single one of us is an ugly duckling, but the Lord Jesus Christ can turn as into a beautiful Swan. Here's how it works. It doesn't matter how attractive you are on the outside, I know, Mila Kunis, You've Won many awards for being the most beautiful woman in the world and Craig Ferguson. I know, many women think you're a silver fox but it doesn't matter what we look like on the outside.
The Bible tells us inside we are ugly, there's an ugliness that no one else sees but God we all tell lies, we all have Wicked cruel thoughts about people. We stab people in the back. We have fits of Rage. We do shameful things in secret and have Wicked thoughts. That no one else knows about. And this ugliness that I'm Think about the Bible calls it, a sin and on the cross our ugliness, the weight of that ugliness that every single person has inside of them was placed on Jesus
Christ and Jesus died. The most hideous death. So hideous that I believe. If we saw him, many of us wouldn't be able to look at his body for more than a few seconds. His beard was plucked out. He had a crown of thorns smashed into his skull. He had Nails driven through his hands and his feet. A spear through his sight. He was covered in dust blood and spittle and they're the most loveliest person who ever walked
on this Earth died. The most cruel death, but even all of that, ugliness of the crucifixion did not compare to the spiritual suffering where God, the Father poured out, all of his wrath, he put the weight of our sin on, Jesus and crushed Christ there, so that we might be forgiven. So any man, any woman who somehow How expresses this desire? This thankfulness that you died for me? Jesus, thank you. Have mercy on me, doesn't matter what words?
You say, it's the heart that matters if anyone is willing to do that. Well then God can take that Sinner and turn them into a swan. If you like, you can make them beautiful because Christ takes our ugliness, but then gives us his Beauty. He takes our sin, the the ranks of our sin and wears it on the cross and he gives us his beautiful cloak of righteousness. Loveliness is perfect track record and says there you are. That's my gift to you.
If you're willing to receive it the number of years ago, there was an aristocratic gentleman a man called Sir, Roger Bolton. And one day, he went to a fair in a place called Colchester in the south of England and he was really enjoying himself. You know what Affair? He was eating, lovely food. He was watching the jugglers, the Clown's having a great time, and then he heard the town clock and a bit like a child would do.
He counted the amount of chimes. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, 11 12 13 and as he sort of standing there thinking, am I going crazy? He sees another man who's just behind him and he says, excuse me sir, did you hear that too? Did you hear that clock chime 13 times and the little man said yes, I heard it too. I thought I was going crazy too and so Roger bolt. We didn't think much more of it but he just wrote it down in his
diary today. In Colchester the clock chimed Times anyway away, you went and he went home and a couple of months later, he's lying in his bed and he hears this voice. So loud. So clear and it says this go to your, go to your and he thinks what's that all about? This is ridiculous. I'm hearing voices in the night. Anyway, he goes back to sleep and the next morning he cannot get this voice out of his head. Go to York, go to your. So he says to his man. Come on harness the horses.
I better go to your a couple of days later there. He arrives in York and as he gets there he sees outside of the courthouse. There's a big crowd of people so we pull someone aside from the crown estate, excuse me. What's going on? What's all the commotion? And the man says, oh, haven't you heard the news? There's a big trial going on a murder trial and today is the last day and we all want to know what the outcome is.
So Roger bolt, sorry. Follows the people into the courtroom and then he hears this very authoritative voice. Say this, do you have anything else to say for yourself before I pronounce you guilty? Your honor. I am not guilty. I was more than 100 miles from York. I was in Colchester and I stood there and there was a man next to me. And we both heard a clock chime 13 times.
If only he was here, now he would prove that I am innocent and saroja bolt, has eyes lit up and he screamed at the top of his voice. I am that man. Now I know how I was supposed to come to York here. Look, I wrote it in my diary, the man is telling the truth. He really was there and so the church church look to the diary and there's a bit of whispering and then the judge said very
well innocent. Anyway the little man and Sriracha. Bolts are walked out of the courtroom together and the little man looked up at Sriracha bolts and he said you know there's not a man in all the world who could save me but you there's not a man in all the world who could save me but you my dear friend. There's not a man in all the world who can save you but the Lord Jesus. Christ and I beg you today, come
to him, he loves you. He wants to save you and he died on a cross going to Great limbs, so that you might be forgiven. Don't put it off a day longer and come to him right now. And the last thing that Mila Kunis and Craig Ferguson said about God is that God is too big for me. If I have a hard time believing that if someone's big enough to create the entire universe, you'd be concerned about what food you ate, what? They Yeah. It's not really it's not really a big picture guy thinks.
I think you have bigger things to worry about. Yeah, I believe one of the greatest tragedies in the world is that when we believe the lie, that the devil tells us that God is too big, he's too distant to care about our worries. That is so untrue. The Bible says that we are to cast all of our cares on him for, he cares for you.
God cares about your needs. You might think it's small You might think it's insignificant, but the Bible teaches us that God leans down, he inclined his ear, to listen to the cries of his children. But you might be saying Joe I've been crying out to God for years and he's not answering my prayers. Well there might be a reason for that. There might be a reason that your prayers are getting blocked from Heaven. Do you want to find out the reason for that?
Please listen to this message right now and if you haven't yet subscribed please do I'd love the privilege of being able to continue preaching the Bible to people like like you because I'm just a beggar showing other Beggars where to find breads. God bless you all. And thank you for watching.
