  1. I really like when Derek starts teaching ca 55th minute, but nowadays ADONAI raised Hebraic teachers who explain HIS Scriptures in such depth that is unparalleled with Christian based preachers. It is all based on ISAIAH 8:20 and 51:7, because all will be like 66:23 states, in HIS millennium.

  2. Derek was and is a True man of God. Nowadays, I don't trust many due to false teachings & prophets but Prince walks and speaks God's Truth!Thank God for him!!!

  3. Mr Prince… A Man that was here a bit before my Time but he lives on Forever thru Christ Jesus His Interpretations and break down of The Word made Simple with Great love for The Lord
    Greatful for the Teachings he left Us
    We will never have Another Derek

  4. I am forever blessed. This beloved brother has made straight the crooked paths as he ministers the Word of God in Spirit and in Truth!!! Looking forward to the catching away to meet our Lord in the air along with our dearly departed Derek Prince who is resting in Christ til that Glorious Day!!!

  5. Every time i watch Derek Prince /i see Jesus shining throughout him…A true and faithful servant whom I aspire to be like, btw I know this might sound a bit carnal but don't you think this man deserved a knighthood (I know hes got one from God)

  6. He still is my fav. Bible teacher, but I am very suprised to have notice a MAJOR MISTAKE, not from the Bible but general history. At 1:01:40 he says that the Kopernikan system (Copernican) believed in Sun turning around the Earth. and that only Galileo changed that. While in fact the Polish born M. Kopernik was the first who discovered that the Sun was stationary. Galileo only confimed Copernicu's discovery by observation with his new telescopes. Not Galileo but Kopernik. So many are confused about that, I don't know why, including highly educated Derek Prince.

  7. Praise godfor the obedience of His servant, Brother Prince! May he and his wives receive every fullness of the Blessing he so graciously shared, creating a hunger for the Lord in all who hear his proclamation of The Word of God. May we all decide to make a covenant with the Father, dying to every bit of our old man and living only to fulfill the requirement that will bring about the return of our Messiah and prepare us for the fierce times we know are approaching that must precede His return. In Jesus’ mighty name, so be it!

  8. Yes his teachings were direct and honest. A great deal of these ministers are preaching the gospel with one motive$$$. And you read about the fortune they have accumulated from their ministry.If you will observe most of the major profits of god were people of little means.

  9. God is the author of salvation, Jesus is the son of God who finished his father’s will. Jesus is not God but the Son of God. Jesus prayed to his father. Even preachers can not understand this. Jesus sits on the right hand of God his father.
