Les maken...
1
Why do I believe in Jesus today?
2
Because Jesus started something in my life.
3
I don't want to give credit to anyone else.
4
Did God use people?
5
Yeah, he used people.
6
Great.
7
But that'd be like if Michael pulled out Crazy Love and goes, Ah, when I wrote this book, I'm like, dude, I wrote that book.
8
I'm the author of that.
9
Don't go telling people you wrote it.
10
And what God's saying here is, he goes, I'm the author of your salvation.
11
I'm the one that started a process in you.
12
I chose you before the foundation of the world that you should be holy and blameless.
13
Okay, so this goes way back.
14
So yeah, thank people, yes, honor them.
15
But really, I mean, and I think I speak for Jess, Michael, if you want to honor us, fix your eyes on Jesus.
16
you know i go wow the author of my faith you saw me
17
when no one else saw me think about your life think
18
about where you were why are you in this room right
19
now why are you watching online why are you in love with him
20
because there's this being in heaven who started something he started it and
21
so you come here today to thank him I'm even
22
now as I'm speaking Jesus is here thank him
23
God you you started something in my life forgive me for
24
giving too much credit to anyone else you knew me in
25
my mother's womb you chose me before the foundation of the world you Jesus I don't want to talk about anyone else.
26
I fixed my eyes on you because you are the author of my life. And he's the perfecter.
27
So important that you know this.
28
that he who began a good work in you.
29
I hear a lot of people saying, well, I fell away from the Lord because of my pastor.
30
I'm not denying that people can have an adverse effect on you.
31
Or walked away from God, I don't believe him anymore because of this happened to me, that happened to me.
32
And we blame something.
33
I had this accountability group and they didn't call me.
34
They didn't get back to me when I really needed them.
35
I'm not excusing that.
36
But Jesus says, wait, I started this thing and I finish it.
37
I'm actually the perfecter of your faith.
38
You know?
39
I love this promise.
40
Don't you love this promise?
41
That means if everyone lets me down, it's okay.
42
Because they didn't start this, and they're not gonna perfect this.
43
I don't know if you've been a Christian long enough to realize that people are gonna let you down.
44
It takes about a week.
45
I don't know if you, it's just, it's gonna happen.
46
I'm gonna let you down.
47
People are gonna let you down.
48
There's no excuse, because we have a promise that the author of our faith is also the perfecter of our faith.
49
It's so good to know.
50
This is why we can't look at the sin in our lives and go, but I'm addicted, I'm this, I'm that.
51
It's too hard.
52
You know, I was born into this type of family.
53
Look, I get it, all those things are real, but it is also real that he is the perfecter.
54
And there is a promise, and when we pray to him, we say now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling.
55
He's able to keep you from stumbling and to make you stand in the presence of his glory,
56
blameless with great joy.
57
Jude, that's what he says.
58
He goes, he can keep you from stumbling.
59
Your parents might not keep you from stumbling.
60
Your husband, wife won't keep you from stumbling your parents, your pastor, your Christian school teacher,
61
whoever it is, they're gonna let you down and we're human.
62
And then we're gonna somehow take our eyes off and let God use people, that's who he uses.
63
The Spirit fills people.
64
But God promises, I can keep you from stumbling.
65
I can keep you from stumbling.
66
I thank God for that promise.
67
On January 8th of this coming year, my wife and I will be celebrating 30 years.
68
30 years.
69
Yeah, it's been awesome. And I've been faithful.
70
I will look you in the eyes and tell you I've been faithful to my wife for 30 years.
71
Because he can keep you from stumbling.
72
And you need to believe this.
73
And I believe I'm gonna stay faithful to my wife till I die or she dies.
74
I've prayed, God, if possible, could I die first?
75
If possible, just because I don't want to live without her.
76
And I pray that when I'm doing a wedding, I'm just going, God, please, please, please.
77
Or have us both crash on the way to Orlando.
78
You know, whatever.
79
Like, I just, I love her.
80
I love her.
81
I love her.
82
And I thank God to thank the God who is able to keep me from stumbling.
83
Because it doesn't mean I'm not tempted.
84
Doesn't mean there's not opportunities.
85
I'm a good looking guy.
86
So it, okay between Michael and I.
87
You win, you win, I get it, okay.
88
But it's just this whole thought that, I get it.
89
We live in a crazy world and there's stuff out there, but you gotta believe and you gotta fix your eyes on Jesus
90
because he's the author and the perfecter and you can look at him today, this morning, and say, Jesus, you started something in me.
91
I'm gonna trust you to perfect it.
92
And even for those of you who have been entangled in sin, You claim his promise today.
93
You said you can keep me from stumbling and I'm gonna claim
94
that God and I'm gonna confess this and I'm gonna remove this in the name of Jesus.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
