The 3 wise men were astrologers the star lead them first to Herod, that star was satan himself leading this men to the Herod and let him know about Jesus. Everybody know what happend next when the angel advised the astrologers not to tell Herod where Jesus was, this enraged Herod and he gave an order to kill children under the age of 2. That's why God prohibited astrology because it has to do with ocultism and the devil uses this for his own purpose.
those poor wise men traveleld hundreds of miles through sand storms, intense cold and heat and hunger, they risked their lives to find jesus and when they got there they found out God told the shepherds directly where Jesus was, why didnt god tell the wise men where jesus was and do them a favour, instead they followed a star for hundreds of miles, god could hasve saved them a lot of bother
I thought it was funny. It caught me off guard at first...I was like...what the heck? Then at the end...I got it. Jesus laughed alot, he is a pretty cool person. The best part is...He loves us inspite of ourselves...no matter what....there is nothing anyone can do about that.
Its not defaming Jesus. The Bible says that the 3 Majo visited "mary and the child", there is no reference specifically to coming to see them in the stable or Jesus being a baby when they came to see Him. This clip is not Biblically accurate anyway. Its like claiming that using Catholic icons in art is defamatory. If we had a photo of Jesus, well, even then maybe!
I wish I were brainwashed sometimes, gosh, that'd really help me out a lot actually.
I havent felt guilty in quite some time, what a waste of time. It seems a lot more useful when you do something wrong to just do the right thing next time.
You seem angry at the "church" laser, I wonder when was the last time you actually went?
Hey Laser, my beliefs don't give me moral high ground, and I don't look down my nose. If it makes you feel better to think that I do, knock yourself out. I could care less if you believe what I believe. But Jesus is still the answer.
Hey HopeFlies, if Jesus is the answer, then the question must be "Which mythical figure has been used by the powers that be to control the population at large and to justify acts of hypocritical monstrosity?"
Maybe I'm mad at the "church" because I'm one of the many countless people who was abused by a priest who was in a position of power, authority and trust, when I was a young defenceless boy.
@edbear94 Actually the Bible does say that. It's in the second creation story of Genesis. Humans are the only ones to receive the breath of life from God, we are made in his image, and also we have dominion over all the animals on Earth. That means basically, we have souls, animals don't. We can own them and it is our responsibility to take care of them.
@edbear94 I agree, but I would prefer to call it "rationality", because "not smart enough" seems to me as if they were stupid. I don't think they're stupid. Anyways, I don't see the relation to the video, I sometimes just have to answer to some comments xD
yeah babies will do that and those gifts seem rather age inappropriate I heard metal, babies need soft colorful toys, no wonder Jesus had anger management problems ;-)
Oh brother, just do or don't believe. Christ died, no arguement, if you believe that and believe that it was anything to do with you, theres something in it for you. If not, thats called free will. I'm not selling you anything pal. I have all the time in the world to discuss what I believe, but I am not wasting time debating it. My, isnt this a funny clip BTW??/!!!
You personally may not be selling anything ( unlike the church that has been shamelessly selling entrance to paradise for ages, especially to those who can least afford it), however, your beliefs give you a moral high ground that allows you to look down your nose and condemn those who don't believe exactly as you do.
You must be referring to the Catholic church which is a cult and NOT a true follower of the Jesus Christ of the Bible.The Cathohlic Church and its apostate beliefs give true Christians a bad name. Do your homework. True Christians don't condemn unbelievers-we PRAY for you to see the light.
of course we all know. Such insightful crap comes easy or do you have to work at this kind of truistic babble? Why not come out with the fire and brimstone threat and be done with it - oooo believe or burn you sinners!!! Mwahahaha!!
But, hey if you pick the "wrong" God to worship just remember you DID have a choice,which is more than some religions that are truly intolerant will give you..uhmmm(islam)
If God exists, then if you believe in Him, you will have eternal life. And if God exists, then if you don't believe in him you will be eternally damned. So if God exists, you are better off believing in him. But if God doesn' t exist, then you lose nothing by believing that He does. So it is a safer bet to believe that God exists.
Which of the numerous known deities that offer eternal life should I believe in? It doesn't seem to me like it's a "god or not god" situation. It's a "god or y_w_h or allah or buddha or vishnu or ... or not god" situation. And what of the innumerable possible deities that might condemn me to hell specifically for believing in the christian god, while giving me paradise if I reject it?
No investment. None at all. You do or do not believe. What makes you think theres anything in it for us? The investment is or is not yours. If it doesnt matter to you, then thats that then. Thanks for coming.
Proof people. I want proof. Not references to some ancient book written by primitives and reinterpreted by the powers that be to suite any agenda that they might be hawking to control the population at large.
True biblical scholars do not accept the bible as Gods word and are able to see the symbolism inherent in these stories, so why can't you?
What is your investment in having me believe these fairy tales and myths, and why should it matter in the first place?
I think you may need to go back and read your gospel of Matthew and if you can tell me how this clip even remotely depicts whats in the Bible, I'll be glad to hear it.
The story depicted in this clip has as much to do with the Biblical representation of Christs birth as easter eggs have to do with the resurrection of Christ. Thats why this has nothing to do with Jesus.
HAHAHA this add is GOLD...... im christian and im not offended by it.... people just like to find things to whinge about.... if they arent whinging what else they gonna do..... i vote to keep this add.... is funny as fuck
For goodness sake, Christians have been prepared to allow the dilution of the gospel into social tradition and done nothing about it. The story of the "three wise men" has about as much to do with the power of the gospel as easter eggs. There can be no doubt that Christ was born in the circumstances depicted in the gospels in the Bible, but the story of the "three wise men" is nothing to do with Jesus anyway. Jesus died on the cross, and THATS the power of the gospel of Truth.
The magi were seeking wisdom and found a Person, they show that the Gospel is about a personal relationship with Jesus, Who is God with us, Whom we can adore. They gift of mhyrr is about the Cross. Btw, if God had this put into the Gospel, how can you say it has nothing to do with Jesus? All Scripture is useful for instruction.. at least that is what the Bible says. God bless.
Very funny! I can't believe anyone could be offended by this. I know there are a few ultra-religious people out there who will not see the funny side, but honestly! Tell me that didn't make you smile!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Actually, if you think that this is fairy tales, you need throw out all your history books. There is concrete evidence that Jesus did walk this earth - there is written evidence of it.
I didn't say he didn't walk the Earth. I have very little doubt that he did, but what I do 101% doubt is that he was anything more than a peasant. Santa says Hi.
If you believe everything that is written down just because it is in a book i'd hate to see what you think after you've read Harry Potter (although at times it is just as believable as the bible, if not more so)
Have you read the Bible, do you own one ,Do you know the story of his Birth.He will not discriminate between you sinner and the believers, he even died for you,specially for you
I see the Bible Basher's are already whinging about this Ad. They need to wake the fuck up and realise if you are going to believe in fairy tales you are going to be mocked.
I agree, I think we could safely say no one can doubt that there was a man called Jesus around 2000 years ago. He features in many religions like Islam, Judaism, of course, Christian.
All think he was a prophet except Christianity who believes he was God.
He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!
