One day I asked Jesus "how much do you love me." He answered with his arms spread apart on the cross and said "this much." if u really love god post this comment on every Christian video. 97 percent won't do it the other 3 percent will.
Q. Do muslims believe in Jesus Christ ? A. Believing in Jesus and all other prophets of God is a fundamental part of muslim faith. Muslims believe that Jesus is the son of Virgin Mary, and he had no father. God created Jesus and he is a prophet IE saying he is god. Or the son of god is a major sin in Islam
So fight my natural urges and desires and force myself into a life of misery and shame, serving the invisible man up in the sky you call god, no thanks
@devilshomie Whats the point if your just going to mock? How are you forcing yourself into misery and shame? Serving God is good, God is good. Jesus was sent to die on the cross because He loves us!
@MrSilentProtector According to the bible in order for me to "serve god" I have to stone my kids to death. I'm good from what I've read in the bible god is a sick twisted sociopath
@MrSilentProtector No he not he's killing someone for disobeying their parents so by your logic every teenager in the world should die. What if my parents wanted me to kill myself and I disobey them does that me I'm gonna go to hell
@devilshomie you are taking it out of context, did you read around it? and have you even researched the laws of that time? the New Testament is the New Covenant, the NEW promise. Jesus came to abolish the law; God tried to make ppl perfect and it obviously did not work..
NO SUCH THING AS SIN, STOP LETTIN THESE PEOPLE FOOL AND BRAINWASH YOU. THERRE IS WRONG OR RIGHT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES WRONG THEY GO TO JAIL, THIS IS REALITY, NOT BIBLE LAND. SIN, HELL, DEVIL ARE ALL MAN MADE UP RELIGION WORD TO FRIGHTEN AND BRAINWASH PEOPLE, SIMPLE AS THAT. STOP BELIEVIN THESE IDIOTS.
You loose my respect when your using advertising. What is going on?? is someone stealing the material and posting it on a youtube account to make money for themselves?
God healed my mind when I was 19 years old, after I'd lost it through eating LSD like candy! He came to me in the most tender way when I was 35 as a sheppard seeks the lost sheep...and at 48 I'm still playing w/my sin, God have mecy on me, someone slap me in the face and WAKE ME UP!
I can pay a man's debts, if I want to help him. I can even serve his time.
But I can't forgive him for something he has done to another human! That would be mad and immoral; to say, "I forgive you for treading on that man's toes" is absurd, vicarious, stupid. Who am I to ignore the victim's broken toe, and give you forgiveness in spite of it?
If anybody offers to take away your responsibility in that manner, distrust him; tell him he is evil and immoral.
Do you want to believe that there is an all powerful, eternal entity that watches you while you sleep; can convict you of thought crime; can take your most involuntary passing thought and use it to condemn you for ever? Do you want to have invigilation every second of your life, from “before you are born” and, yes, even after death?
A celestial North Korea! That’s what you desire! Except you can get away from that despicable regime by dying!! No such luck for the religious! (CH)
We would not be where we are at if human beings did not make what they believe as moral. The only difference from animals and human beings is that human beings through out time have fought and died for others in whatever belief they thought as good. Maybe the actions of what was said to be good was not that good, but atleast there is good that has come out of it. Although morals of the past may be barbaric or consider evil now, we would never be here without them because they are the examples.
The problem with preahers like John Piper is he doesn't do what Jesus said. Jesus said lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. Oh and by the way God is not angry. God put all his anger and punishment on Jesus! if you are a Christian then Jesus took your place! The whole point of being a christian is christians have a Saviour. HIs name is Jesus. John Piper needs to get saved!
John Piper's statement: "If you make an idle out of this health of yours now, and thank me til the day you are dead, for the idle of your health, you will perish forever."
Very confusing to me...would like clarification & more references please and thanks.
What happens when you die?Have you told lies, stolen, used God's name in vain(10 Commandments)? If yes, then you're a liar, thief, and a blasphemer in the sight of God. When you die & be judged by God, you'll be guilty of sin, & go to Hell! But God sent His Son Jesus to shed His blood & die on a cross for your sins, He was buried & rose again from the dead on the third day. If you'll believe the Gospel(Jesus's death for your sins,His burial & resurrection)you'll not perish & have eternal life
Ugh I hate crap like this, so what your automatically born into this world as a bad person is that it? No no my friends, you don't need to ask for forgiveness everyday from whatever god is out there. Granted I think if you hurt people and take advantage of them and have hatred in your heart that's another story.
@devilshomie where did you get the idea from? have you ever heard of chronological snobbery? its when someone thinks that the age or youth of something makes it more valuable. by your logic, the bible is wrong because it is old. well 2+2=4 was penned long ago also. why isnt that wrong?
@tercelkisor Look I've read the bible and you know what I've come to the conclusion that it is just a way for humans to explain how the world works and why it was created. It's a story and shouldn't be taken so literally
@TDNSLEDANG Yes..religion sucks. Salvation through Christ is true life and freedom, a relationship with God Almighty, so close you can call Him Father!
@joeforHistruth i think you misunderstood me, I dont like any kind of religion. Its only for social and emotional poor people.. i shall except you view of this but its just nothing for me.
You obviously have no idea what he means by fighting sin @Strefanasha. What do you think repenting is? Your equating his words to some sort of works and you have missed the message completely. What do you think Paul meant in Romans 8 when he instructed to mortify the deeds of the flesh. Seems like you have a problem more with Mr. Piper then the truth.
@XashaMaree "I don't believe in the trinity paganism" When did I say anything about trinity?
"I believe Jesus' words"
Okay Jesus Says clearly in John 14:8-9 that he is God>>>>>>
8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? WHOEVER HAS SEEN ME HAS SEEN THE FATHER. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
If you don't know who He TRULY is, you don't know Him. If you reject His deity, you are declaring blasphemy.
MANY will come to me and say "Lord, Lord" (get that? they not only think they KNOW Him but they think He is their Lord) and what does He say to them? AWAY FROM ME you workers of lawlessness I NEVER KNEW YOU. Being born again has EVERYTHING to do with being ABLE to know who He is. Man can't even SEE the kingdom of God UNLESS he is BORN AGAIN.
@XashaMaree You again can not understand this, because you are not born again. Your sin and resistance to the gospel is what hinders you. The trinity is not a pagan understanding. I am thinking you are of the Jehovah's Witnesses cult, is that true?
@ronathanedwards Actually you are not born again. You are judging me and you will be judged. Shouldn't you be out witnessing to people who don't know about Jesus. He is the son of God and I love him. simple as that. Now Go get a life.
I am witnessing to people who don't know Jesus. You are one for example. I can say I know a "Joe" and you can say the same thing, "I know Joe". But I say mine has blonde hair and is 6 ft. tall. You say, NO he is bald and is 4.10 . We know a "different" Joe. Your "Jesus" is a different Jesus than that of the Bible. You seemed to be caught on "Son of God" and God the "father". These are only relational terms and you misapply them. John 1:1 simply states Jesus IS God. Repent.
@ronathanedwards Lol.. LMAO.. I'm going off what jesus said... It's you're Jeus... The one other people made up.. And my jeaua, the one who was actually talking.. trust me... I've repented... You don't know the mysteries of the Kingdom.. you're blind.. sorry
@ronathanedwards and you are really going off the Top saying I'm resisting the Gospel... Do you always exaggerate like this. i hope you're a teenager also, because you need to grow up.
This is a rhetorical question with the answer to be assumed in the AFFIRMATIVE. In other words, "Why do you call me good? BECAUSE no one is good but GOD alone, which I AM that is why you do call me good. Jesus does not DENY His goodness, He is affirming what you think He is denying. Why is His name "Emanuel" which means "God with Us". Why does He accept WORSHIP when He accepts Thomas' declaration "My LORD and my GOD". God does not share his Glory, yet JOhn 17:5. Answer Jn. 1.1
@ronathanedwards No.. you're twisting It.. He never said "because" you added one... yes God is with us.... And that's what they named him.... Me and my family can survive a storm.. and Get blessed and say "God is with us"... LORD does not mean GOD.... and he NEVER CALLED HIM GOD... please stop making things up
@XashaMaree Well as v know it Jesus came to earth to set an example to us... other religion ppl like hindus.. i sometimes heard dem crying and prayin "Y wud God understand our problems he's not human.. he doesnt knw wt kinda trobles temptations or brokenness v go thru.. he's just a maker.. like a director of da movie .. just watches us play our roles nd have fun".. well v christians knw well..v can say such things abt God.. coz God himself came to earth in form a human nd has one thru everything
@quasarqueen God had no need to come to earth. if he is all knowing he would already know how we felt. Christianity is Dramatically inspired by other religions... research it yourself. Now I completely believe in following Jesus' words.
@XashaMaree I never said God needed to know how v felt. dat wasnt da point at all.ofcourse he knows everything.it is for ppl to know... ppl say anything and everything while they r in pain.. accusing God and stuff.. dat's wt i meant... but no tht ppl knw dat Jesus came here and suffered greatly.. ppl have no such xcuse to accuse God... and Christianity is coming from Jesus Himself... He was da one who started it in da beginning and the other disciples din't go out spreading Christianity untill.
@XashaMaree .....they recieved ....the Holy Spirit.. which v can read in acts... All the books written in bible, they arent written out of some man's experience or their own understanding of things.. But is inspired by the Holy Spirit... All the decisions They made in da early Church which led to what Christianity is today ... none of them were made by da apostles by their thinking.. , they were sent visions and dreams....
@quasarqueen Thank you for being calm about it. Ok i understand that, but it scares me that Paul wasn't even sure he had the holy spirit or not, and he admitted that he became all things to all men ( he pretended to be certain things to win people) 1 Corinthians 9:19... this all started when i said I believed Jesus was The son of God sent by god, instead of believing he was the Father himself. And i Got attacked.. it bothers me that people believe other men's Words over Jesus' own words...
@XashaMaree I totally undersatnd what u mean... i myself have a lotta doubts and sometimes ever reach a point whr i question myself for wheather this whole book of bible is reliable or not (it is quite a big issue coz dats da only Word of God ) coz it was rearranged nd edited by many ppl over time. But though its all so troubling nd uncertain... there is one thing tht has to b understood, reading bible isn;t a data mining process.. whr ppl have to do da digging and make patters....
@quasarqueen Yeah.. I can understand that it can be confusing. But you'll be fine as long as you ask God for the truth about his word. you know, he'll help you to understand what's right and whats wrong. I've gotten to a point where I realized some things I have been taught in Church is not true, but you learn when you're seeking God.... If you don't believe anything else, just pay attention to the words in red, because it's the truth... God Bless you
@XashaMaree .. argue about and understand... Bible as itself says.. becomes Word of God to you... when you or me or anyone has a relationship with u.. this isnt history or something thou ppl do treat it dat way... having a relationship with God is crucial here. Christianity, Trinity, Word of God... all of these things they are more Personal than Intellectual. When an actual intimate relationship is established betwen one person and God... all of these questions hey wont trouble u anymore...
@XashaMaree ...and with this i'd like to finish my contribution to this conversation....and i really thanq for being so patient with me coz i often come across ppl who get so mad a me nd mock me all da time. If there is anything more plz do msg me into my inbox.... God Bless you....
@XashaMaree So.. everything Jesus did.. da way he lived. wen he washed the feet of his disciples... it was all to set an xample to us.. for us to teach how v must live... wen Jesus said those words in Mark 10:18 ... he wasnt denying that fact that he's Good...he was speaking in human terms... he was like saying "brother.. u dont go about thinking that man is good or this man...no body is all Good xcept for God".. that man who said dat to Jesus was probably those words as flattery or sumthin...
@quasarqueen You're right though. Jesus Sure did come to teach us how to live... Hun Do you ever notice that Chrisitanity is not coming from Jesus himself, but from other people who said they knew Him... Yes Jesus said I and My father are one.. meaning He had God's spirit and his words were from God... But he came to teach us that we can also be one with the father THROUGH him... which is Through his words and example...... If I need to repent because I prefer following every word jesus said..
@XashaMaree Dan 7 I saw in the night visions & behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven & came to the Ancient of days & they brought him near before him & there was given him dominion & glory & a kingdom, that all people, nations & languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away & his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed
1 Jn 5 There are 3 that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word & the Holy Ghost & these 3 are 1
@TheCHURCHinDROUIN 1 John 5 This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the[a] Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.... the spirit, water , and blood? that's God, jesus, and the holy spirit?
@tiredofthebs2008 God bless you too. But the part when it said a man and a woman become one flesh... they're still not one entity. I believe jesus is the SOn of God, not God. And calling him God is wrong IMO. I believe he was God's living Word.. Not God...
@XashaMaree IN the beginning was the word and the word was WITH God and the Word WAS God.
Jesus also equated himself as being the very God that Moses spoke to (the burning bush) When Jesus said "Before Abraham was "I am". In the Greek it is a direct EXACT reference to name that God gave to Moses "ego eimi", thus Jesus was calling himself the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel.
The "son of God" was important because it was the title of the Messiah. God in the flesh "Immanuel" GOD with us.
@ronathanedwards that's nice, but I'll stick with acknowledging God as one and the only true God and Jesus as his son. It's hard for me to believe God would become a man.
@XashaMaree You are ignoring the text for your opinion. You can have your opinion, but I'll stick with what God says and not what you ignore for the sake of your opinion. It is hard to believe that God would demonstrate His love for His elect, and unless you are born again you will never believe it.
@ronathanedwards it really doesn't matter if I believe they are all one. As long as I follow his teachings about how to live my life I'm good.. Me being born again has nothing to do with the trinity doctrine. That's your interpretation. Like I'll go to hell for believing Jesus is God's son and not God. You're over doing it.
@XashaMaree "I don't believe in the trinity paganism."
When did I say anything about trinity?
"I believe Jesus' words"
Okay,in John 14:8-9 Jesus clearly says He is God>>>>
8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip?WHOEVER HAS SEEN ME HAS SEEN THE FATHER. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
Hey youtubers, I recently launched a website to step forward in my call to preach. I'd appreciate anyone reading this to go to my channel and to the website. Comment the posts and save the site in your favorites. I'd greatly appreciate it as I'm beginning my itinerant ministry. Also if any of you are near Los Angeles and feel theologically sound, I'm looking for two people to join the ministry team.
I think it is tragic when unbelievers try and understand and debate theology, and when things "don't make sense" in their minds, they use that as an excuse to not believe.
I'm not a religious scholar, but it seems that the "threatening damnation" aspect is not any different than the protection rackets practiced by mobsters.
It's interesting to hear John try to explain 2 Peter 2:1. Its like a contortionist tying himself in knots. Listen up People, If you have to twist the scriptures in a knot to give an explanation of what you believe. Maybe what is believe is not right.
John Piper denies Jesus heals. performs miracles. He denies the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He denies Christ died for everyone. On one hand he says you don't have a choice. Then on the other hand he says fight Sin. He teaches God intentionally allows babies to be born with absolutely no intention of allowing them the opportunity for salvation. Unfortunately this dogma is spreading through out the Baptist Church. The movement better start listening to there more level headed leaders.
I like john piper, hes a harsh guy. He looks likes hes really tired, people not understanding the real belief of christ. I felt before for the only love love thing, its certainley not. christianity is hardship
Though this guy is not of my faith, I like him. He speaks the truth. Salvation is not a one time declaration of belief which still leaves one filthy with sin. No unclean thing (person) enters God's kingdom. One must overcome the propensity for sin, and acquire the propensity for holyness.
sin no more.... he changed him into a believer so he wont sin no more, but if he leaves this love that Jesus showed him, then something bad will happen.
nothing can take away the love of christ the bible says.
atheists dont realize that if they leave christians faith alone we will, in turn, leave them alone and let them find god if they chose to, and if they dont then i pray that they are saved in the end. now im not saying god exists because i cannot see or show physical proof so my faith could be wrong but im a strong believer in it.
We have to first view what sin is. Sin IS anything against what God ordains. God is Never wrong; indeed he is the righteous judge.
Plus, there are laws that are given to show the existence of sin. Adultery, fornication, disrespecting parents, lying, murder, etc. the list goes on and on.... The bible tells us what is sinful. We also have guilty consciences and morals that we natural receive; all these point back to the existence of sin. WE cant write the def. of sin, God already did.
Sin is described in the Bible as transgression of the law of God (1 John 3:4 {Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.}) and rebellion against God (Deuteronomy 9:7; Joshua 1:18).
@logoRH Sin doesn't really have to do with the good or bad that we do to others, or if it's good in one person or another's view. Sin is situated only under God's viewpoint, not peoples, because people can have sooooo many views on what is "right" or "wrong" that it's basically both. But sin is a problem with human desires and anything against God.
i believe in god but i also believe in balance. the problem with religeous people they think to robotic and think everythings a sin. i remember a cristian telling me quit my job to come to church i was like whos ganna pay the bills god. believe in the right thing but also have common sense.
I have a book... it's good... it was written by a guy... it's called alice in wonderland... do you guys want to read it? you seem to have a thing for these types of books...
@Davidbirtles1 I dont need to know you, or your life, I just know that since you dont have God in your life, you are miserble, and you will continue to be miserble until you surrender to Jesus Christ. you will die, and will stand in front of God, and you will be judged for all the vile things you have done
@danielpinto20 dude i live an awesome life... truly... i am happy as possible, and i do it without your "jesus" in my life... i don't need a book. i think for myself. lol.
funny how your god is going to judge me for something he knew i was going to to...
funny how your god is going to judge me for choosing a path that he put me on...
@Davidbirtles1 I dont believe your happy, you live a life of entertainment, a barren life, a life without purpose or direction, because everything you work for will perish. everything will turn to dust. and let me get this straight, you believe that if God does exist, he will let you into heaven when you die, cuz your a good person, right?
@danielpinto20 dude you don't know me so how can you know if my life is good? i'm a moral person, i help people, i don't kill etc. difference is i dont need a book to tell me how to be good. can you prove everything will turn to dust? no...
and yes if your god is real he will do... haha i'v led a good life. and he knew i was going to be an atheist so he cannot punish me... gett it??? you make me laugh.
your god cannot punish me for something he knew i was going to do... so grow up mate.
@Davidbirtles1 ok let me adress one thing at a time, 1) your a good person? really? ok, take a test- If I could take every thought you have ever had since the moment you were 4-5 years old-till today, Every PERVERSE THOUGHT YOU HAVE HAD, thoughts that you've had about your friends that if they knew they would no longer be your friends, and I can put all those vile thoughts in a dvd, and showed it to your loved ones, parents ect, you would run away in shame, you know its true,
@danielpinto20 yeah i'v thought bad things. but morality is our actions in life not our thoughts. so someone would go to hell for thinking about rape, even if he never did it? grow up please. I respect you, but you need to think more. make your own decisions in life.
for the sake of argument... let me ask you one simple question. If I may (I hope you will answer)
@Davidbirtles1 you know your thoughts are vile, because it exposes motives, we are going to be judged by motives. and even then, you have done(actions) vile dishonorable things. i,e(porn). God WILL NOT forgive you, because hes a righteous judge. here is the catch, you konw why I know your wicked? cuz soo am I, im no better than you, whole humanity as a whole is vile, just read your newspapers and it will prove me right, did you know there are 2000 rapes every five minutes, counting sex trafickig
@Davidbirtles1 oh btw, you said that how can you be judged based on thoughts, and I replied that your judged based on motives. if that sounds dumb to you, realize this: thats how our judicial branch work, our criminal code, its called "mens rea" look it up. a person cannot be convicted of murder for example, without the mens rea being present,
@Davidbirtles1 soo God will not forgive you for being wicked just how a good judge cant forgive a guilty person. 2) your saying that your not accountable to God because he ordained you to be an athiest? you cant come to God cuz your soo wicked, soo how can you be held accountable? right? well,, let me put like this, your absolutley right in you cant come to God, but your still accountable, e.g a person can be soo arrogant that he CANT be humble. your still guilty of not being humble.
@moonicababy if you read all my comments on this video, you have felt convicted because you know you are a wicked person. but that is not the essence of what im saying, ALL human beings are wicked and worthy of hell. Im a human being, there is no way im a "good person".
Shouting if often a sign of under confidence sometimes in the speaker and sometimes in what they are saying. Probably the latter because this is nonsense. Jesus gave us an invisible gift which we can't see feel or prove, yeah sure buddy.
@FeeDthiSFohl If you can say God an intellectual entity could always exist, then surely a universe could, something that is random elements and not actual life and intelligence. It is far more far fetched to believe an intelligent being always just existed, than to believe the conditions needed for the universe to expand just always existed.
@GeorgeEJWaites Ahhh... I can't really understand but I do want to reply! >.< Hrm, one thing is that WE did not come up with the idea that there is a God. Man did not one day, just say, "There must be a God!" But, God, HE created us and came up with the idea of us. We don't believe what we don't understand, like the fact that there's a God. But I challenge you to evaluate what you CAN see, which is sin. If sin is real, then that's exactly why people don't acknowledge God's existence.
@FeeDthiSFohl How do you know whether or not man "one day created god?" Were you a fly on the wall back when men were living in tribes? Your comments are arrogant and not thought out very well in my humble opinion!
was I a fly?No. But were you one two? And... ... :/ Why are you "yelling"... );
I'm really sorry for sounding heated to you. I apologize for appearing arrogant. And as i humble myself, I don't mind taking this humility for truly apologizing. Because humility=true humbleness :]
@togwm@togwm mmm.... Christianity isn't a religion, it's a relationship♥. Thanking goodness? Goodness is only from God. And BRAINWASHED? hrmmm... I'm butthurt... :/ but no, I', surely not brainwashed! >.< I'm freed from sin brainwashing me from disbelief from God. I encourage you to search the clip below. It's from a person who was not a Christian, who didn't believe in God.
@togwm The truth is all around us. There's no excuse to not accept God and to not know we are sinners. But it's more like we use excuses to continue living in sin, thinking, "Oh, I'm, not that bad of a person. I do several good things. I'm morally good." But, fact is, we all have sinned and are all bad, and Christians aren't sinless, but they have realized the reality of sin in their life and are turning away from them.
@FeeDthiSFohl "There's no excuse to not accept God and to not know we are sinners." I will totally agree with you as soon as you can show me scientific proof of what you say to be true! It's interesting though that even the "hard hitting apologists and theologians claim that they cannot prove that god even exists HENCE "FAITH" based!! At this point if you cannot show scientific proof, you're blowing hot air! As time continues, more and more of your religions "so called" truth is being DEBUNKED!
[Why does *everyone* seem to be "yelling"... :/] Ica stones are evidence of something. because evolution says that dinosaurs and man did not live together, nor are they still alive. but Ica stones from years ago, depict images of dinos and men living together. Science can also be proven wrong. The bible prophesies upcoming events that are now coming very true. And those theologians, I wouldn't count as Real theologians. Real ones properly understand God's truth.
I'm not a theologian and maybe I will never truly reach that high level of research, but I don't certainly need one for me to believe God is real. What he has done in my life is more than enough evidence. And I'm not mad or crazy (or w/e you mean), as you say *blowing hot air*, so please don't blow hot air at me... :(
@FeeDthiSFohl The problem for me is, YOU cannot keep your religion to your self(PERSONAL relationship)! Example: you said, "The truth is all around us. There's no excuse to not accept God and to not know we are sinners. But it's more like we use excuses to continue living in sin, thinking," Yet you have ZERO EVIDENCE to back up what you claim here! As soon as you make public statements like that expect public scrutiny, it's going to happen ie I will continue to blow hot air at you! Cont:
Continued here: If you truly keep your relationship(I realize you can't but just saying)to yourself and stop proselytizing then you won't be scrutinized! :p
@99minerkc If you say God is God, then God created everything, including time. People always ask what created God because their minds cannot percieve anything outside of time. God is outside of time, it is one of His attributes, and we will never understand it. But if you want scientifical facts I would ask the same, no side can provide solid facts for their argument. And thats a fact haha
@92JesusFreak You're correct in saying neither side can provide solid facts for their argument, so I ask you why did you make a statement with a tone of authority stating, "If you say God is God, then God created everything, including time. People always ask what created God because their minds cannot percieve anything outside of time. God is outside of time, it is one of His attributes, and we will never understand it. " Did god tell you he was outside of time? Also, you said, it is (cont)
(cont here): one of "His" attributes. How do you know that god is a male? Again, did god talk to you and say "He" is a male? Know I don't believe a personal god exists, but I'm implying one does for the sake of discussion.
@logoRH Saul made the problem of acting on his own thinking thus refuting the word of the LORD but offering the prize plunder as sacrifices, but God rebuked him in saying it is better to heed his commands then perform useless acts of obedience. 1 sam 15
One day I asked Jesus "how much do you love me." He answered with his arms spread apart on the cross and said "this much." if u really love god post this comment on every Christian video. 97 percent won't do it the other 3 percent will.

@devilshomie you are taking it out of context, did you read around it? and have you even researched the laws of that time? the New Testament is the New Covenant, the NEW promise. Jesus came to abolish the law; God tried to make ppl perfect and it obviously did not work..
So Jesus came and taught us a different way.

I can pay a man's debts, if I want to help him. I can even serve his time.
But I can't forgive him for something he has done to another human! That would be mad and immoral; to say, "I forgive you for treading on that man's toes" is absurd, vicarious, stupid. Who am I to ignore the victim's broken toe, and give you forgiveness in spite of it?
If anybody offers to take away your responsibility in that manner, distrust him; tell him he is evil and immoral.

Do you want to believe that there is an all powerful, eternal entity that watches you while you sleep; can convict you of thought crime; can take your most involuntary passing thought and use it to condemn you for ever? Do you want to have invigilation every second of your life, from “before you are born” and, yes, even after death?

We would not be where we are at if human beings did not make what they believe as moral. The only difference from animals and human beings is that human beings through out time have fought and died for others in whatever belief they thought as good. Maybe the actions of what was said to be good was not that good, but atleast there is good that has come out of it. Although morals of the past may be barbaric or consider evil now, we would never be here without them because they are the examples.

The problem with preahers like John Piper is he doesn't do what Jesus said. Jesus said lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. Oh and by the way God is not angry. God put all his anger and punishment on Jesus! if you are a Christian then Jesus took your place! The whole point of being a christian is christians have a Saviour. HIs name is Jesus.

What happens when you die?Have you told lies, stolen, used God's name in vain(10 Commandments)? If yes, then you're a liar, thief, and a blasphemer in the sight of God. When you die & be judged by God, you'll be guilty of sin, & go to Hell! But God sent His Son Jesus to shed His blood & die on a cross for your sins, He was buried & rose again from the dead on the third day. If you'll believe the Gospel(Jesus's death for your sins,His burial & resurrection)you'll not perish & have eternal life

the inward nature of sin is such that if you have the impulse IT IS TOO LATE.
look at the 10th commandment, look at teh sermon on the mount
the issue may be holiness but this man offers the TOTALLY wrong means to get there.
if you have the impulse your effort against your sin is an expression of sin itself, and is no cure..
his passion is vacuous ranting. he knows not himself nor his sin.
fight your sin? and seek to be perfected in the flesh

fight your sin? then be a house divided against itself which WILL fall.
either repent and be free or fight and destroy yourself.

@XashaMaree IN the beginning was the word and the word was WITH God and the Word WAS God.
Jesus also equated himself as being the very God that Moses spoke to (the burning bush) When Jesus said "Before Abraham was "I am". In the Greek it is a direct EXACT reference to name that God gave to Moses "ego eimi", thus Jesus was calling himself the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel.
The "son of God" was important because it was the title of the Messiah. God in the flesh "Immanuel" GOD with us.

We have to first view what sin is. Sin IS anything against what God ordains. God is Never wrong; indeed he is the righteous judge.
Plus, there are laws that are given to show the existence of sin. Adultery, fornication, disrespecting parents, lying, murder, etc. the list goes on and on.... The bible tells us what is sinful. We also have guilty consciences and morals that we natural receive; all these point back to the existence of sin. WE cant write the def. of sin, God already did.

@logoRH Sin doesn't really have to do with the good or bad that we do to others, or if it's good in one person or another's view.

But sin is a problem with human desires and anything against God.

@Davidbirtles1 oh btw, you said that how can you be judged based on thoughts, and I replied that your judged based on motives. if that sounds dumb to you, realize this: thats how our judicial branch work, our criminal code, its called "mens rea" look it up. a person cannot be convicted of murder for example, without the mens rea being present,
danielpinto20 1 year ago
@Davidbirtles1 soo God will not forgive you for being wicked just how a good judge cant forgive a guilty person. 2) your saying that your not accountable to God because he ordained you to be an athiest? you cant come to God cuz your soo wicked, soo how can you be held accountable? right? well,, let me put like this, your absolutley right in you cant come to God, but your still accountable, e.g a person can be soo arrogant that he CANT be humble. your still guilty of not being humble.

@moonicababy if you read all my comments on this video, you have felt convicted because you know you are a wicked person. but that is not the essence of what im saying, ALL human beings are wicked and worthy of hell. Im a human being, there is no way im a "good person".

Shouting if often a sign of under confidence sometimes in the speaker and sometimes in what they are saying. Probably the latter because this is nonsense. Jesus gave us an invisible gift which we can't see feel or prove, yeah sure buddy.

@FeeDthiSFohl If you can say God an intellectual entity could always exist, then surely a universe could, something that is random elements and not actual life and intelligence. It is far more far fetched to believe an intelligent being always just existed, than to believe the conditions needed for the universe to expand just always existed.

@GeorgeEJWaites Ahhh... I can't really understand but I do want to reply! >.< Hrm, one thing is that WE did not come up with the idea that there is a God. Man did not one day, just say, "There must be a God!" But, God, HE created us and came up with the idea of us. We don't believe what we don't understand, like the fact that there's a God. But I challenge you to evaluate what you CAN see, which is sin. If sin is real, then that's exactly why people don't acknowledge God's existence.

@togwm The truth is all around us. There's no excuse to not accept God and to not know we are sinners. But it's more like we use excuses to continue living in sin, thinking, "Oh, I'm, not that bad of a person. I do several good things. I'm morally good." But, fact is, we all have sinned and are all bad, and Christians aren't sinless, but they have realized the reality of sin in their life and are turning away from them.

@FeeDthiSFohl "There's no excuse to not accept God and to not know we are sinners." I will totally agree with you as soon as you can show me scientific proof of what you say to be true! It's interesting though that even the "hard hitting apologists and theologians claim that they cannot prove that god even exists HENCE "FAITH" based!! At this point if you cannot show scientific proof, you're blowing hot air! As time continues, more and more of your religions "so called" truth is being DEBUNKED!

@mythicalhell
[Why does *everyone* seem to be "yelling"... :/] Ica stones are evidence of something. because evolution says that dinosaurs and man did not live together, nor are they still alive. but Ica stones from years ago, depict images of dinos and men living together. Science can also be proven wrong. The bible prophesies upcoming events that are now coming very true. And those theologians, I wouldn't count as Real theologians. Real ones properly understand God's truth.

@mythicalhell
I'm not a theologian and maybe I will never truly reach that high level of research, but I don't certainly need one for me to believe God is real. What he has done in my life is more than enough evidence. And I'm not mad or crazy (or w/e you mean), as you say *blowing hot air*, so please don't blow hot air at me... :(

@FeeDthiSFohl The problem for me is, YOU cannot keep your religion to your self(PERSONAL relationship)! Example: you said, "The truth is all around us. There's no excuse to not accept God and to not know we are sinners. But it's more like we use excuses to continue living in sin, thinking," Yet you have ZERO EVIDENCE to back up what you claim here! As soon as you make public statements like that expect public scrutiny, it's going to happen ie I will continue to blow hot air at you! Cont:

@99minerkc If you say God is God, then God created everything, including time. People always ask what created God because their minds cannot percieve anything outside of time. God is outside of time, it is one of His attributes, and we will never understand it. But if you want scientifical facts I would ask the same, no side can provide solid facts for their argument. And thats a fact haha

@92JesusFreak You're correct in saying neither side can provide solid facts for their argument, so I ask you why did you make a statement with a tone of authority stating, "If you say God is God, then God created everything, including time. People always ask what created God because their minds cannot percieve anything outside of time. God is outside of time, it is one of His attributes, and we will never understand it. " Did god tell you he was outside of time? Also, you said, it is (cont)

(cont here): one of "His" attributes. How do you know that god is a male? Again, did god talk to you and say "He" is a male? Know I don't believe a personal god exists, but I'm implying one does for the sake of discussion.

plain. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh

That's exactly what the enemy wants you to think.
If we're gonna fight it for ourselves then I guess Jesus didn't do a very good job.
