To those who think Christians are deluded and foolish: If I die, and there is no God, and no after life, I will die having lived my life to the best of my ability, having harmed no one, and hopefully helped a few. I will have no regrets. But if YOU die, and there IS a God, and an afterlife, then YOU will be very sad that you rejected Him who loved you and gave His life for you. You will miss out on forever! Either way, I'm good....what about you?
@Misstorys So let me get this right? You want me to read a BOOK to prove a book false? hmmm. So I should put faith in your theory of beliefs and call them facts? Why do people like you waste your time insulting Christians calling them brainwashed? When it could very well be you that is brainwashed! You can keep putting your faith in man and I will put my faith in God!
@Crazywoodman I am sorry for you all brainwashed but its up to your selfs to find out. I am insulting nobody I am stating a fact ! You are wasting your time. Dream on.
Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
Whether or not you believe the bible is true, that statement sums you up perfectly.
I have looked at your channel and seen several of your posts on different videos. You really think you know it all about everything and have the world figured out. You are so wrapped up in your own deluded opinions and it blinds you. I wish you good luck with that, honestly.
Why do people wasting their time to believe in something never happened ? Study the origin of it all and become wiser instead of reading a book of frauds. Bushby The bible fraud.
I got the Feasts all messed up ! Yahshua's birth is Tabernacles (September ~ October) and His return should be Trumpets (September) . Pentacost (March ~ April) was when he was killed.
To add a Biblical perspective; fruit is on the trees during the Feast of Pentacost (September ~ October) and the Moon and the Sun rise together on the Feast of Trumpets (March ~ April).
This song is sublime! Today (November 26, 2011) I dedicate this song to the memory of My Heavenly-Resplendent Wife -- The Darling of My Life -- Barbra Jean "Rose" Ragan. I pray and hope you can hear this song from your home in Heaven, My Precious and Eternal Love, Barbra. Barbra -- you are still my heart's desire. Barbra -- you STILL possess the only key to my heart-of-hearts! Barbra Ragan (June 23, 1967 -- November 21/22, 2010). Barbra -- I love you beyond Space/Time! Come back for me soon!
I first heard this song by Peter, Paul and Mary and memorized it as it became my favorite Christmas song. I love their version and this one too. Judy Collins is my favorite singer of all time.Also, thanks for the story of the song. nice to know.
spectacular! She does the best version of any singer. Did you know that this story has its roots in an apocryphal gospel from the 2nd century. In that story, Joseph and Mary were in an oasis, walking under fig trees. The British took that ancient tale and changed the fruit to one they were more familiar with. Pretty cool.
@seamusberen Thank you very much for enlightening us as to the origins of the British tale. I'm certain that My Darling and Heavenly-Precious Wife, Barbra, knows all about this story now that she is in Heaven. Joseph wasn't mentioned much in The New Testament, so, I'm glad that Judy Collins sang about Joseph in 1996! A Heavenly-Graced and Joyous Christmas 2011 to all!
@seamusberen Yea right, its not even possible to let bend a fig or cherry tree in the way described by the story. Its all fantasy to give Jesus special abilities which he had not, he was born with Tiberius as father and Miriamne Herod as mother hence Mary. Forget Jesus born as a God, no such thing exist ! The bible is the biggest crap there is, the book of lies and deception. distorting history on purpose and a fraud so biggggg.. !
@OL8Twho What did I tell you above ? Dont reply without doing research ! You replied with nonsense, utter nonsense, its not even true. False story fraudulent story and that is proven by the ones who done research. Its all made up afterwards in the Fantasy Gospels, its not even true. Do research and than argue with me not before. You are brainwashed as for the rest of the people on this page. You've been had in a big scam lasting for 2000 years ! Its a BIG lie.
@Misstorys I'm not aware that you told me anything above. So, there's no God? Wow. I suppose you have proof. Ok thanks for the bad news that God died and left you in charge.
@OL8Twho I am not aware that I told you there was no God, its nothing more than a superconsiousness which only started for the most part the laws of physics and maybe a certain matrix or template and the rest follows the template according to the laws of physics on a autonomous way. There is no God in the sense as religion sees it thats impossible. Jesus was not son of God and not on cross. its madeup 400 years afterwards. its not true.
While this is an interesting tune with a lovely melody, this is a fictional folksong thought by some to have been written sometime in the 15th century. There is nothing in God's Holy Bible to support it the sotry told here, and many different versions of this song have been recorded with widely varying lyrics. My favorite version is by Mary Hopkin.
So beautiful!! I'll have to upload to version I grew up with by The Chad Mitchell Trio! <3

@yahdah613 Who was killed ? Jesus never hung on the cross he died in England because of stoning to death at approx the age of 61. Gospels are fraud !

Absolutely beautiful song and singing. But our Judy doesn't know her Bible so well. The nativity story in Matthew's gospel is all about Joseph.
