What a powerful and very apt sermon for these times in the UK

Well that's a bit fire and brimstone by today's standards isn't it? Nice to hear someone preaching that we should all get off our asses and do something about the state of the country but I thought the general new testament vibe about government was to pray for the leaders (Timothy somewhere) and to obey them as God has authority over all and has therefore put them in place as leaders (not sure where this is from maybe Romans?).
It is obviously a call to arms but what more specifically do you think he is calling us to do?

Yes it was very fire and brimstone, I loved it! He has been on the Five Fathers prayers on YT where they do pray for our leaders, King and nation on a weekly basis, so that is definitely part of it all.

He's calling us to speak up for Christ even in the smallest situations, to stand firm on the gospel teachings. Obviously not everyone has a larger reach in society, but we are called as Christians to firstly share the gospel and to live a godly life, walking in the footsteps of Christ. It's not that easy in today's society, it's too easy to be influenced by secular culture but we have to speak up for Christian values, hold our ground and play our own small part in Christ's Kingdom.

Interesting. I couldn’t find anything online about his training, background or where he ministers, that wasn’t social media such as YouTube , X etc. Ah well, none the wiser.

He relates to Calvin Robinson. That kind of helps place him, I think.

We are definitely in a spiritual war. He certainly does not hold back and tickle ears, and what he says is true.

For the lamb is worthy, for the King is coming and for His glory alone we will stand, we will speak and we will not be moved.

Powerful words. Amen.
