Oddly enough it was recognizing that the Truth is more important than whether I was a Christian, Jew, Muslim, or Atheist that gave me the intellectual honesty that led me from Christianity to Judaism to Atheism. If my honest search for truth is what will condemn me to eternal torment, then a war is what your god can have. Maybe God does exist and the test is having the courage to stand up to Him.
Under the dark sky, shines the moonlight. Blessed by Satan, I dwell within depths of hell. Powers of the devil defeating the cowardly light. The throne of god shall crumble down. The earth will be a kingdom of demons. Where life and indulgence shall rule. Those who worship holy evil will be doomed. The white sheep shall be destroyed. Rendered to pieces by the claws of Satan. A black star shines over a mighty new king. The paths to hell are clear. The lord of the pit will rule!
I wish you did believe in God so that you could pray for me. Other than that, I don't see why you feel the need to insult me. Why the hostility? If you don't like what I have to say- go away.
Hey friend, amen! I'll pray for you! It isn't always easy, is it? However, it's okay. We believe, and we must speak the truth. Such a profound video!!! Thanks for sharing! God bless!
i agree with you cjunk: they ar eplenty of contradictions in the KJV bible. i find it also amusing. example that so many will believe the bible and not UFO's
Hey cjunk351! I know you're not the only one to feel that way- in fact, before I was a believer I felt very similar. I always thought the Christian message was weak and plain non-relevant; I didn't care enough to be offended. However, when we start talking about our true nature and submitting to Christ that's when things can get offensive and misinterpreted as attacks. Good to hear from you.
People can talk to me and have done for a few years now about submitting to christ and our 'true nature' (the way they put it) and I never get offended at the message of that. I may not take to kindly to the christian(any body for that matter) who says to me, that I am a chicken lightweight, whining, heartless, evil, murderous, lying, deceiving, alcoholic, drug addicted, poor excuse of a human being, bad father etc. sure, but not at what the bible says. For me its just an old set of books.
Thanks buddy, but so many years so much work. Being here on youtube and yahoo answers helps me get over somewhat in a weird way. Its hard when you sell out for Jesus, you end up setting yourself apart from real people. decades of that will take it out of a person. :)
its been 4 years for me now and it still feels like it wasn't that long ago.
Just not feeling so alone anymore helps. Seeing guys like yourself and graphicsguy, paulharrison1976, infidelguy and others and hearing their stories is awesome. :)
bberchin lets respect each other and please do not contact me again. your narrow-minded views are for likeminded people. not me. i will only respond to your video responders and will not contact you again.
Brett, you demonstrate the power and love of Christ in two ways: in speaking His truth, and in walking in such truth. Your videos are a testimony to this. We can't make people see what God alone reveals, but we do live and love that Truth which upholds the universe. We provide a means of witness that may save many. Keep up that testimony, brother. Love in Christ.
Yes, I'm tired and I'm no salesman. I don't need proof and I don't need science; I love science because it shows me how awesome God is as Creator and Sustainer, but I don't need it to proove Him. And, yes, I love to talk- about the Lord because He is awesome and life has no meaning without Him; my brother ReformedLou will tell you the same thing.
hello bberchin: its obvious by your answer how tired and irrational you sound. if a doctor told you you had cancer, would you need proof? i hope so. reasonable people would. my comment was right, you are tired. proves my point.
bberchin; your words...and I don;t need science..and don;t need it to proove him. That is your problem you have not proven anything,all you have is words on paper.Example,if you break a leg you going to go to science and forget about god to heal it because deep down you know that the god you pray too is not going to do a thing for your leg.Unlike you I am restrained by logic. Thank you
Just look at the apostles. Philip was stoned to death. Peter and Andrew were crucified. Paul and Matthew were beheaded. Thomas was speared to death. James was clubbed to death. And John was abandoned on the isle of Patmos. People did not welcome the message they preached. It's not any different today.
Sometimes we need to show people the ten commandments and allow their conscience to convict them. If it offends them, then that's too bad. We are motivated by love and concern.
I just watched God's Outlaw, the story of William Tyndale, and talk about suffering! God bless men like him and all the dear saints who have gone before us who would not recant their faith in Jesus Christ. Btw, you can watch the entire movie here on YT.

I am a liberal Christian and I do preach the truth of universal salvation and that hell doesn't exists.I will always preach the truth of Gods love for all of humanity!! I will never compromise my beliefs for any man . May God bless you and your Family.
I'm sorry, brother, but your 'truth' of universal salvation is not biblical and an abomination. I say that with confidence and humility. You must preach what the scriptures teach. God bless you as well and I hope you really study the scriptures in context.
Do you own research where the word Hell came from and where the idea of hell came from. You will then find out the real truth. You will find out that hell is a man made concept used to scare and manipulate people in believing in God .
I am sorry I am going to have to disagree with you my friend. Universal salvation is Biblical. If you want, I can give you tons of Biblical proof to back up my position.
You can quote many scriptures to back up your position, but you cannot do it with them in context. I already know which scriptures you'll use. This is pointless; I don't wish to debate another believer about such a rediculous notion. Please do not render the cross void by promoting such an abomination.
The bible makes the following three propositions, all of which cannot be true:
1. God loves each person in such a way that He desires each person's salvation.
2. Whomever God desires to be saved will be saved.
3. Some are not saved, and remain separated from God forever.
You will deny proposition 1; however, 1 has far more biblical support than does 3. Tell me how many times hell is mentioned in the bible where it isn't translated from a word that means grave.
I wonder why bberchin didn't respond to this. It's true, there's scant evidence that God will punish some forever without hope of salvation. But there seems to be a lot more evidence for (1) & (2).
Christians are ONLY the people who are described in 1 and 2 John. No one else - no matter what they may call themselves. No matter if they think Jesus is a prophet, either. ANYone who believes and/or teaches contrary to 1 and 2 John is NOT a Christian.
I hope and pray that you will read both of these epistles, SEVERAL times, and ask the Lord to have mercy on you; to reveal the Truth to you. You are in eternal danger.
How am I in eternal danger ? I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal lord and savior. Therefore I am a Christian . Jesus came to save ALL mankind and I believe he did. Everybody will be saved.....Universal salvation.
For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough.
Paul clearly says that we *accept* the gospel. Why is this a concern? Does it sound too Arminian?
Oddly enough it was recognizing that the Truth is more important than whether I was a Christian, Jew, Muslim, or Atheist that gave me the intellectual honesty that led me from Christianity to Judaism to Atheism. If my honest search for truth is what will condemn me to eternal torment, then a war is what your god can have. Maybe God does exist and the test is having the courage to stand up to Him.

why MUST we listen to you?
why are YOU the one whos right?
why wont you listen to someone else?(because your brainwashed)
i do want to know everything, if i close my mind an only accept god then i will not learn the truth i will only know what i am told.
if god were to test your faith then i am the test.
i dont beleive anything you say, only what i see.
i see a trouble man trying to help others but he cant even help himself because his eyes and mind are closed

Hi my "happy" friend; long time, no talk. Well, I'm not surprised you agree, as it was you who introduced me to the inconsistent triad.
Although I still don't accept the existence of the christian god, your presentation seems much more rational than others.
