Hello fellow Bible believers,
 I'm glad to be a part of this group and look forward to interacting with you.
I was born again in 1999.

I am now a street preacher in middle Tennessee for the past two years. My YouTube channel is "Teach All Nations".

I pray that we all can help one another to better understand the King James Bible and, thus, become more sanctified from this wicked world.

Blessings,
Kenneth

Kenneth, I dont have a lot of time to watch all your videos but I decided to watch one of them called "gospel preachers made to leave public facility."
About 30 seconds in a bystander asked you "do you sin?"
I know where he was going with this and you probably do too but your answer was "no."
Can you explain a little more if you actually believe that?
1 John 1:8-10 (KJV)  If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

20 seconds later a bystander yelled some cuss words at you, and instantly you responded "oh listen to you you dirtymouth filthy hypocrite."
1 Corinthians 5:11 (KJV)  But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
Look I know he is a hypocrite with what he said, but when you yell at him "dirtymouth hypocrite" are you any better?
For the next few minutes you are arguing with drunk atheists about judgment and trying to reason with them... Im not sure I want to watch much more and your other videos seem like the same type of situation.
To clarify something: I'm not saying that no one there will be converted by what youre saying... But what is your defintion of repentance? I heard you telling people to repent a lot, but you realize that probably no one there knows what the biblical definition of repent is?

Im not saying that you shouldnt tell people to repent, but when you start off by saying you dont sin and then rail back at the drunk atheist, you are sending a false message.

I have not watched the video, so I don't think my judgment is worth much, but for a man cussing from the vileness of his heart; to respond in manner of saying that he is a "foul-mouthed hypocrite" is simply telling the truth. Railing is the use of name-calling in a contentious manner, whereas even Jesus called men hypocrites, vipers, whited-sepulchers, etc. In short, I don't think Ken was in any error on that point, but again, I haven't seen the video.

On the other hand, answering "no" to the sin question; I agree with Thomas. Personally, I find it better to say that I repent of my sin, and that's the difference between the believer and the unbeliever; they try to justify their sin instead of grief of their wrongdoing and turn from it.

My question would be why we would desire to have conversation with a drunk man. I likely wouldn't even address him, but rather, I would address anyone else listening.
Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
-1Ti 5:20

If the drunken man claimed to be a Christian, then 1Co 5:11 would apply, but if he did not, as Thomas said he was an atheist, then 1Co 5:11 does not apply, so I don't want anyone to jump in and start hammering down too hard on Kenneth, especially since many of us are not out doing what he's doing.

That being said, I should probably look into his videos myself because I have not yet done so.
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
-Psa 34:18

The guy who cussed, did claim that he believed. That would be why I said that.
Maybe I shouldnt say they are atheist. But they were many scoffers with that attitude in which they didnt believe in God. I shouldnt have said they were atheists because I dont know there philosophical or religious beliefs.

Hello, ThomasHGW

Thank you for watching my video.
One of the reasons I post my preaching  is so that Bible believers might provide feedback.

The video you are referring to is part two in the series.
My particular response that you are addressing was after nearly twenty minutes of interactions with that man and preaching at the same time.

Please, if you have time, review part one starting at about the thirty minute point.
You will see that he had been asking me the same question repeatedly and that I had given him comprehensive answers more than once.

The guy said several times that he has been baptized.

Here is part one:

Thanks for your time. 😊👍

First of all I dont mean to hammer on you the second you join the forum, you gotta understand that the first video I click you claiming to not sin shot up a red flag.
I watched the link you posted, my original question still stands.
I have other thoughts on everything after 32 minutes in but I'm going to wait for other christians to give feedback on what they think if they want to and have time first

I don't want to critique anything you do too harshly, being that I am not the one out there on the street with the microphone. So please, if I say anything, I would ask that you humbly forgive me if I am too presumptuous, or if I say anything that is out of line with the Word of God.

I was that interested in the video until about 7.5 minutes in when we weren't just hearing "repent from sin," but sin was being defined. (i.e. pornography, drugs, drunkeness, etc) I noticed that most people ignored what you were saying until you starting pointing out their sins specifically. That's why I've always encouraged people to preach about 90% law and 10% grace of Christ because they won't care about the grace of Christ until they're lost.
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
-1Co 1:18


I also liked at about 15 minutes the reading of the rebuke of God's Word to the people.

And Thomas, he did, in the first part, confess his own sin to everyone, and that the Lord Jesus Christ brought him out of his sin. I enjoyed hearing that.

That guy who was drunk and/or high was strange.

I like that one part that they would allow someone cursing their name into their own homes, but they hypocritically believe God will let them into His house after cursing His name.

That annoying guy was just repeating himself over and over; the difference between him and Christians is repentance and faith. The bottom line is that he was trying to use you as a measuring stick, or in other words, he was trying to make you into his excuse to sin.
Because a Christians sins, does not give justification for sin. We repent of sin; men like him do not, rather they live in it and regard it. I would say to him, "Even if I was the most wicked sinner on this planet, it would still not give you an excuse to sin before God." However, in the heat of the moment, it is often difficult to think calmly, and I think Ken did a pretty good job at keeping his head... also nice job remembering the specific canon of the Catholic Catechism; I wouldn't have remember those details. (i.e. That's why I have to write everything down.)
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

Thomas, in direct answer to your question, as I remember it, is that yes I can and do sin, to my shame, from time to time.

Here is part of my philosophy about street preaching/ministry:

Street ministry is not always about getting people saved.

-It is about obedience to God for His purposes.
-It is for perfecting the saints.
-It is for a spectacle unto the principalities and powers.
-It is for cutting folks with the word of God whether they engage in dialogue or not.
-It is for making the saints available to the lost in the public arena.
-It is for sharpening our scripture knowledge.
-It is for putting us to the test.
-It is to make full proof of our ministry.
-It is for us to see and hear what the world really thinks of Jesus.

Chris,
thank you for taking the time to watch my video and make a thoughtful response to it.
There is always an ebb and flow to my preaching about law and grace.  90/10 is a good ratio that I keep in mind, but I also realize that much of my audience is only going to potentially be listening to me for less than 1 minute. Additionally, what I preach about is often affected by what I see, which is sometimes not captured in the video. Sometimes I will see you something written on a person's clothing or a person shaking their head and I will direct my preaching toward one of those things.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to say I have it all figured out, which is why I am always looking for input from those who fear God and reverence his word.

I guess I happened to click the one video where you said something you didn't mean. I was going to say about the rest of the video that what you were saying really seemed to prick the hearts of the few people listening.
One thing is for sure, when you're out there doing what you're doing, you know exactly what the world thinks of you.

Yes, Thomas, you probably could find many instances in my videos where I don't say exactly what I mean. However, those that know me can easily pick those things out.
Remember, I'm not out there with a script or carefully prepared notes. I'm out there in the thick of a battle surrounded on all sides with one or two warriors at my side. (Though we all know we've already won the war and the King of kings, and the Lord of lords has my back. 😉👍)
Sometimes things can get kinda crazy and quite ugly.
It's not fun, but I go where my King sends me.

Here is a video a friend of mine made a while back:

Hi Kenneth, I have not had time to watch your video's thoroughly, but my heart rejoices to see the Word of God preach to the people on the streets. It is so neccesary!! I know quite a few people that were saved through preachers like you, and I do not expect you to be perfect in every conversation or instant. Your doctrine so far (what Ive seen) is sound.
2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
 I look forward to get to know you better.
Like Chris said : he is not on the streets. And many of us are not: you are! May the Lord strengthen you, lead you and bless you!!!
Welcome to this forum!!

Hello Kenneth!

I just watched: Country Music Awards Festival 2018 Gospel Preach Day #1 (Part 3)
Wow! That's a tough ministry... so many distractions: the yelling and scoffers... so sad.

Luke 15:10
Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.

God bless you and the brothers our there!

I get to work early before anyone else shows up and have spent the last couple hours listening to the audio of your videos while working, there is no shortage of people to preach to in nashville is there?
It must take some serious patience to not get angry at the scoffers and walk away.
Im glad to see that some people actually have conversation with you and try to listen

Hello Christopher Belflower,

Yes, preaching to crowds of people, any of them drunk and heckling, can be extremely distracting. Praise the Lord that he has been he has given me the ability to preach in this kind of an environment.

ThomasHGW,

I am humbled and grateful that you took that much time to listen to my videos. You are correct! There is no shortage of people to preach to in Nashville Tennessee. In the video below you will see us preaching to tens of thousands of people as they come down a large bridge after a world-class soccer game. We were able to preach to them before the game on their way into the stadium and then after the game as they came back into downtown Nashville.
It was another amazing opportunity!

Fast forward to about the 1:10:00 point and you will see the flood of people coming over the bridge( if you have the time):

Welcome kenneth,

Thank you for sharing your videos with us. I looked at a few- it's nice to see how you begin the street preaching - sounds silly, but I think I've only ever heard street preachers 'mid flow' and often wondered where they begin at.
