THIS SONG IS SPECIAL TO ME I GREW UP SINGING IT IN CHURCH WITH MY GRANDMA AND WISH SHE WAS HERE WITH ME NOW. MY MOM HAS CANCER AND SHE IS NOT DOING GOOD I HEAR THIS SONG AND IT MAKES ME SAD
Have faith my children that your epic personal problems pale in comparison to the
20,000 children who died today from preventable disease and starvation.. so too bad but I am not going to help you buy a new car, of cure your flu like symptoms!
However I may choose to reconsider if you leave a voice mail about how awesome I Am!
Then I may reconsider, or maybe not!!!! I am a jealous God! I am atheist,I don't believe in gods, I am an angry god!!
can anyone plz tell me cuz im always troubled by this, but as a christian, in a worst case life-threatening scenario, do i pray to god or jesus? for example a bear comes to attack me in the wilderness. who should i turn to, god or jesus?
Lord I have fallen many times in my life I say, living in lies and disgust in full of sin today, i have weep many many nights away, a broken heart that needs your blessing to save me from satan ways i pray. please hear my request to enter your kingdom someday. and reunite with you my creator the ruler from the north south east and west..An awesome God you are truly the BEST!!!!
Jesus is god; The same god of the O.T. who ordered:Witches, to be killed . Homosexuals, kill them.fortunetellers, kill them. those who don`t listen to priests, kill them. those hitting their dad, kill them. those who curse their parents, kill them, adulterers, kill them. fornicators, kill them. people who believe in other religions, kill them. non-believers,kill them. fals prohets ,kill them. blasphemers, kill them. those who work on the Sabbath, kill them. That`s real LOVE !!
Jesus is waiting for every one of us to come to Him with all our cares and troubles and realize the sin that we are living in. He transforms and heals the most broken all for His glory. He paid a price for you. Please realize how much He loves you and wants you to be a part of His everlasting kingdom. Take a chance and ask him to come into your heart. You will be amazed at what He can do. ~God bless
WHEN MY FAITH GET WEAK I WATCH THIS VIDEO THIS IS THE SONG THEY SONG WHEN I GOT BAPTIZE SO I KNOW HE WAS CALLING ME AND I DIDN'T LINGER I WENT HOME AND IF I SHOULD SAY SO MY SELF I AM AT REST SOME PEOPLE WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND THEY HAVE TO FELL IT FOR THEM SELF.
@StrumstickJoe Thanks very much and i am always putting other first i do wonder if that the right thing to do but i think that my destiny and weather i love it or not that something i will do till my time on earth is expired
Will someone to explain to me what “he died for my sins” means; because if “he” died, it was 2,000 years before my first sin. I honestly don’t get it, it requires double-think, and a time-shift. It requires that I imagine myself to be guilty of another’s misdemeanour 4 thousand years earlier than the killing. I find human sacrifice repulsive. At the moment, you see, I am firmly of the opinion that the religious texts are myth, fantasy and lies, and I chose those words carefully.
@StrumstickJoe He died for the sins of Humanity. By his death, a provision was made such that whoever commit sin and request forgiveness, such an individual will recieve pardon. Think of it as a prepaid situation. It is onlt through the blodd that there can be remision for sin. Christ payed the ultimate sacrifice and I thank him for that by faith... I hope this helps clarify!
@davoyedokun No, it doesn't help. "He died for sins" I don't get it and I think human sacrifice is repulsive.
Two of the major things to overcome, (and even some scientists fall into this trap) are the desperate need to find a meaning to life; and a destination for it.
I am here for the same reason as a leaf, or a stone, or a planet, and my destiny is the same as those things.
That makes me happy enough. Despite my importance today, and my sentience, I am no more than a transient happening.
@kathleenleondahall Alright, I think "not exactly human" sacrifice is repulsive!
It is also a terrible evil to tell children they are born sinful - and yet worse to tell them that they can shed the burden of their "faults" onto someone else. That would be highly immoral.
If you HAVE done something wrong (and it's not just a false guilt imposed by the church for reasons of control) then make amends and don't walk about guilty afterwards.
Take responsibility and don't lean on imaginary friends.
@StrumstickJoe Jesus is NOT imaginary and btw if you don't believe in Him why did you post on a Christian song? I pray for you that you will see we all have a friend that loved us so much He died for us, no one forced Him to die He Himself said that no one takes His Life away from Him, He couldve called legions of angels to save Him, but he didnt because He LOVES YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But, like I implied below, what if he did exist, nothing of divinity is proved and, unless you believe in zombification, he's dead and gone.
If you believe it, then surely he was preordained to die? Yes? what does that mean? How can you suggest he could have prevented it? How do you think the death had anything to do with us?
@StrumstickJoe Now if you just had the authority to speak on such matters. Truth is not subjective. All of Christs teachings were validated the moment he rose from the dead. I will take his testimoney over yours.
@2112dan2112 ...And who validated his rising from the dead? Nobody did to me.
And I question your argument anyway: even if the resurrection were true, then it appears, from the fact that all the graves in the city opened up that night and the dead walked the streets, that it was a positively banal occurrence.
And how does a resurrection prove the existence of a god, or that the resurrected was divine, or that he was in any way a moral example.
@StrumstickJoe Ill give you all of that, right down to the bizzare. the only one who can validate his authority is God himself. jesus said seek and you will find. As a former athiest, I realized when I heard that, it was just that simple. And he was either telling the truth or he was lying. I rose to the challenge. 20 years later and I must testify that his words rang true. You need to bluntly (minus contempt)ask God to validate himself to you. Jesus made many claims and promises, challenge him
@2112dan2112 So did you agree that resurrection was a banal happening at the time? (I don't believe any of it happened, of course, but I was checking whether you thought that ALL those people were the sons of god)
If you believe in miracles, then either the progress of the universe has been stopped in your favour - or you have made a mistake. Truth is not subjective.
I have no testimony. The world, the universe, you me, we just IS!
Thanks for listening, hit my vids. (I need hits! ;-} )
@StrumstickJoe No, there just turned out NOT to be enough room to really comment on the banality of the ressurection. But when one contemplates the conviction of the men and woman of the early church who also went to thier death for thier testimoney scores points for me on the side of possibility. But ultimately, it was not thier testimonies that convinced me. He has proven himself to me because I asked him to. Go to the source Go ahead and ask him to show himself to you.
@StrumstickJoe Wisdom's Plea (From Proverbs 1) 20 Wisdom calls out in the street; she raises her voice in the public squares. 21 She cries out above [j] the commotion; she speaks at the entrance of the city gates: 22 "How long, foolish ones, will you love ignorance? [How long] will [you] mockers enjoy mocking and [you] fools hate knowledge? 23 If you turn to my discipline, [k] "then I will pour out my spirit on you and teach you my words."
@2112dan2112 If you fist contemplate what it means to turn to his discipline, then do that-see what happens. Put that to the scientific method test. Hypothesis "God will pour out his spirit on me" Ok, friend, ill click some videos for ya!!
@StrumstickJoe He died for the sins of Humanity. By his death, a provision was made such that whoever commit sin and request forgiveness, such an individual will recieve pardon. Think of it as a prepaid situation. It is onlt through the blodd that there can be remision for sin. Christ payed the ultimate sacrifice and I thank him for that by faith... I hope this helps clarify!
@StrumstickJoe The reason you are having trouble is because you do not know what happened in the beginning. The Earth and the souls of men are millions of years old. There was an earth age before this one. When Satan rebelled, God destroyed the first earth age and created this earth age that we are in now. There will be a third world age yet to come. I could explain more, but I doubt you are interested.
@StrumstickJoe You know nothing about Christianity. You are only trying to provoke people of faith. Why else would you come to this hymn and attack those who believe. You are just another lonely atheist longing for answers in a world where you will not find any. If luck is what you believe in, then I hope you find some because you will need it in the end.
@bdpilot28 To hold one of the faiths, you have to believe that a nameless spirit-entity, without a physical brain, suddenly had the need to “think” into existence a material universe of unfathomable complexity and danger, solely to place for testing, on a precarious planet, procreating beings of many imperfections. To each of these beings he assigns an individual soul, which, without physical connection, dwells within its host during life, then “lives” on for eternity.
@StrumstickJoe God said not to cast your pearls before swine. God also says to lay out the truth and then let the cards fall where they will. I don't have to nor can I convince you of anything. I live by faith and my understanding of the word of God. I understand things because I have made a real effort over the past fifteen years to read, study, and listen to what the Bible teaches. I also continue to learn new things every day. Have you made any real attempt? The Bible is a living document.
@StrumstickJoe I am at peace with myself and I am happy. You like to insist that you are right, but what if you are wrong. If you are wrong, you will miss out on eternal life with God. For it is also written that not all will make it. I will pray that maybe someday you will share the same peace and understanding that I do. I am just a man. The answers can be found in the word of God.
@bdpilot28 Reading the bible only results, for me, in massive disbelief that anybody can take it seriously - let alone form their moral code from its primitive doctrines.
Why do you tell me what "god says" when I have no belief at all in such an entity?
You are suggesting that I believe in god "just in case" aren't you?
Oooh dear! That's wrong! That is the most despicable form of hypocrisy possible.
"Pascal's wager = religious hucksterism" please please watch that to understand the meaning.
@StrumstickJoe That is your opinion, not a matter of fact. No, because if your belief is not genuine then it does not count. You can not fool God. Like it or not, our moral code comes directly from the word of God. You give to much credit to man and your sense of intellect. It will not save you in the end. Besides, I don't care if you believe or not. God is not a beggar. Those that turn their back to God will he also turn his back to you. That will be a fate you and you alone have chosen.
@StrumstickJoe The negative vibe you eminent is quite obvious. I'll bet there is an emptiness inside of you that you can not explain. Has life been good to you? Are you happy? Why so much hatred? Those are the questions you should be asking yourself.
@StrumstickJoe Well, I am glad you have all the answers. I have mine. Yes, my blanket is very warm and comfortable. NO power in this universe can shake my devotion to Christ, so you NEVER had a chance. It is funny though that people like you can't mind your own business. It is ironic since you don't want Christians imposing their will on you, but it is ok for you to do so. Who's the hypocrite?
I don't think I implied you were a hypocrite, but you, without basis or provocation, said I was.
I am open to evidence against my view - you are not open to anything that threatens your bias.
There are no "people like me", and the danger of the faiths is everybody's business.
I ask for evidence - I plead for rational thought about the lack of evidence - I advise you to live your life yourself instead of in slavery to an imaginary friend.
@StrumstickJoe Actually you did. When I said what if you are wrong, you suggested I said you should believe just in case. That was not what I was saying. You want a simple explanation for evidence. Now, you know that no man has that kind of wisdom or knowledge. What evidence do you have to the contrary? There's the problem. I tried to tell you that my belief and faith comes from the word of God through many years of study. If I were to pick up a book on quantum mechanics, and just breeze
@StrumstickJoe through it I would laugh it off too. I see evidence all around me through the creation of this place. I see the complexity of life and it is not mathematically possible through chance that this all just came to be. Christianity is not a religion. Christianity is a reality for those who believe. How is it dangerous? Give me an example, but not about what man has done. For there is a difference. I am not enslaved by my faith, but I am strengthened by it.
@bdpilot28 If someone believes "just in case " then I suppose that is hypocrisy.
I can give you examples of bloodletting - but of course they would be "what man has done"! Who else is there to do it? I think you're enslaved by your faith, denial might be comforting, but it doesn't make it true.
Christianity seems a reality for those who believe.
There are millions of "christian" & "muslim" children. How did they fit their "years of study" in?
Some are indoctrinated - some do it for themselves.
@StrumstickJoe The punishment for sin prior to the crucifixion of Christ was death. That was the law. God is the creator. Therefore, he can do as he pleases. I don't think God cares if you like it or not. You seem to think I am forced to believe in God. I am not. I do it willing and with love. It seems to me that maybe you want to do anything you want and not be held accountable for it. That is why there is so much trouble in the world. Some muslims seek out Christianity and some Christian
@bdpilot28 There are people who are forced, on pain of excommunication from their families or friends, or of death, to believe in this excitable nonsense, but I don't think you are. Like I said, some indoctrinate themselves; some are willing slaves to an unnecessary god.
If you think that the human race travelled for 100,000 years before "exodus" without knowing that killing your kind was a bad idea, then you are deluded.
I have no god, I do not kill. God wrote no law; that's nonsense.
There's no adequate answer to the problem of the slaughter of innocents, is there?
That's what should make you see that your faith is baseless and immoral.
Religion is demeaning to the human race, with its primitive belief in a creator and "lord" to whom you must grovel; and its assumption of guilt to control the mind of the vulnerable by calling it a soul and threatening it with eternity.
@StrumstickJoe children fall away. It is by choice or free will. You can not force people to believe or not believe. It is also true that people have been trying to discredit and destroy Christianity for thousands of years. And for thousands of years they have failed and will continue to fail. There is nothing new under the sun. Where would we be without the law that was written by God. Do you like chaos and anarchy? Without God, why is murder wrong?
@ nuttybar9 even tho he didnt answer your prayer still dnt giv up...god knws wats best 4 u......an maybe he is even testin u 2 c hw strng u r....cntinue 2 keep d faith my frend.....
yeah he called my dog home yesterday i prayed for him to heal him but he did'nt he never answers my prayers....i beginning to lose faith in him the more i believe in him the more things go wrong why is that...and why does he let the good peope suffer but not the bad .
@nuttybar9, i understand perfectly, when I asked this they said 'a loving God is at work in your life' then I said 'God...love me less'. God is only trying to burn out the impurities from your life, he wants to rid you of all your flesh so that u can recieve the anointing, see the big picture friend, you should also know that the devil is fighting you tooth and nail, not over where you are but over where you're going here on earth and after, dont lose faith, you have to be STRONG, and tell God.
@nuttybar9 my dog had 6 pups on monday. one of the pups suffered a bad bite from mum. a vet told me to monitor the situation for 24 hrs. the pup died a long agonising death. god didnt cause that, i did i should have listened to the still small voice that said VET NOW !! I have also lost 2 sisters, a brother, my children's father and my nephew all in 10 years. My faith has kept me strong thru these trials. keep your faith you WILL be blessed believe me.
Respond to this video...I can also understand why you feel the way you do. When my son lost his dad his faith died too because he couldn't understand why we have lost so many family members. My son was so spiritually strong before hand. However even if my son doesn't see it i can see the Lord's work in my son. I believe my son's faith shall return one day but he has to reach out first , Christ is waiting his call and he WILL be there when he calls. Please don't give up. x
I am grateful that I found the Saviour Jesus Christ. I am truly blessed on his atoning sacrifice. I am praying constantly that I could be worthy for His love be back to His presence.
Deuteronomy 22:17-21 If a man marries a woman and discovers that she is not a virgin, she is to be taken to her fathers door and stoned to death
There are thousands of barbaric and immoral passages in the bible being taught to our children. How many women would the creator of the universe have us murder?
The bible is ancient myth and superstition. Our early ancestors lacked basic common sense and had far less facts about the origins of the cosmos than anyone alive today. Think & reason.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (March 9, Ash Wednesday), I filled in at a local Lutheran Church for a noon service. I played this as the opening hymn. It is #608 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
thanks for the reminder rev. Jack. The love of God is greater than I or anyone else could express. We should praise him for this rather than get lost in pointless and unwinable arguments. I stand corrected and thank you again.

Merry Christmas Everyone. All we need to know is what makes one happy is not what makes others happy. What one believes (or not) is a personal choice. The sad fact someone comments on something notbelieved is trying to convince others to see things their way. Conflict should not be discussed. The message of our Savior shouldn't be lost in discussions ofcontention...
I love Anne Murray singing...several months ago as my Mom lay dying in her bed at home, I wanted to sing one last time for her, but only could hum, and I did it with this song. She passed away just a couple of hours later.
@jrmelmer the bible didn't say so, the hebrew term of abrahams Faith has the same meaning like the latin word religere with is the origin of the english word religion
but i now what you want to say - but the words are empty for explaining that
Because I have a magic sandwich that cures cancer. seek it with all your heart and you will find it, sandwichism is of the mind, it's spirit is of the Soul
people cannot act moral0ly without a template. Religion provides a template. All religions are good. Doesn't matter which we favor. Thomas Jefferson said 'the masses are asses; and without some kind of guidepost most would run amok like sheep. Maybe you and I dont really need it but some schlubs do. I am not saying everybody has to participate. Like all things in life, it's optional. If it helps someone -great. If not, leave it
Morality: a sense of behavioral conduct that differentiates right or wrong
For human societies to be successful the community needs to trust itself
Every society that had corruption ultimately collapsed
We are the outcome of successful societies and thus our morals
Society needs rules to follow or the society won't be successful and people won't be born. We are born in a successful society and so the community has these 'morals'. Not Religion.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds How you can say we are living in a "successful society" Murder happens every day, rape goes unabated, kids are taken from their families and abused some even abused by their own families. Mankind has turned away from the ways of God. But the Lord Jesus has died and shed his blood for all mankind and given each one away back to God. Through the blood of His cross and the power of His love we can claim His salvation. This is not religion this is faith and this is Gods love
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Obviously you are a sad disillusioned human being. Without faith we can not live. However I will be praying for you. An atheist needs no proof that God does not exist any more than a Christian needs proof that he does. It is strange that as an atheist you blame God for the sin in this world. You obviously do believe in God. I trust that you will come to accept that His Son Jesus has died for you too but if you do not then one day he will become your judge.
1. Obviously facts make you sad and disillusioned, brah.
2. I'm living without faith.
3. I'll pray to my magic sandwich for you.
4. An atheist is not making a claim, a christian is now back yours up.
5. I never said god was responsible for sin, I think stupid people for believing in him are
6. Horus also died for your sins, for 3 days and then was resurrected and sent off to heaven, I trust you will come to accept him, or you will be judged!
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds why are you commenting on a song about God if you dont believe in him. he is real and he loves everybody even if you dont believe in him he still loves you. and he is waiting for everybody to answer there heart and let him in. you really need to quit judging people for beliving in him because if you dont thats on you but stop trying to put people down because they are doing the right thing by beliving in him. because he is our heavly father and we will be with him someday.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Can you provide evidence that you have a spirit or that you don't have a spirit? Jesus lives in the spirit world. The evidence of his life and death are well documented historically and can not be denied. The spirit of GOD will confirm with you that HE is real when you believe. Some will never believe what they can't see. Yet they believe their own thoughts which can't be seen or captured in a hand.
You cannot prove that something doesn't exist, but if you're going to use this argument, then you must also believe in unicorns, ferries and every possibility in existence. That's why the evidence is on the people making the claim to provide evidence for such claim. There is no evidence for the existence any god.
I don't necessarily believe only what I see, you cannot see gravity.
Evolution has every step from ape to man, and can not be denied.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Aren't you a bit of a hypocrite ? Why are you listening and watching this video praising Jesus, if you don't believe in God ? What made you come here in the first place ? Can't believe you'd be so vicious as to make inflammatory remarks just for the heck of it.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Even the majority of atheists have a code of conduct by which they live… some would term this morality. Historically, religion has been used as a form of control through fear and punishment. However, a great many people invest much hope and devotion into their beliefs in exchange for comfort and peace of mind. So, just because you have not found your comfort and peace of mind, doesn’t give you or anyone else the right to take it away from those who have.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . I, myself, am a devout Christian (also a 23 year-old college student), and I have an open mind. My boyfriend of 5 years is an agnostic (who grew up in a Jehovah’s Witness family) and though he may not agree with our beliefs, he does not ridicule us for them. As I have said, I am devout in my faith, but that does not mean I follow my religion blindly. Do I take everything in the Bible literally? No, I do not.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . If something fantastical is said to have happened, I view it more as metaphorical guidance rather than literal translation. But that doesn’t mean I scoff at everything in it, or at others who may take it more literally than I. You say we are close-minded… Close-minded: intolerant of the beliefs of others; stubbornly unreceptive to new ideas. One could argue that this definition perfectly describes you in your view toward religious people.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds It is well-known that the mind is incapable of comprehending anything larger than itself… Yours appears exceptionally small- and you have the nerve to accuse others of being close-minded. And let’s not forget how arrogant we supposedly are. Weren’t you the one who first started pushing your beliefs on the people on this page, so it begs the question: Who is the arrogant party?
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds ? Perhaps you should take a little time out of your time belittling others to study a little more in-depth the philosophy of Descartes… He held more sway over his audience in proving the existence of God than do you in your quest to prove otherwise. Maybe that’s because he didn’t insult them, and more efficiently organized his arguments. Maybe it cannot be proved that God exists, but neither can it be proved otherwise.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds One cannot prove there are other dimensions, but scientists are fairly certain they are there. But I predict that you would not contradict them because of their generally unreligious points of view. One cannot see time either, but we all know it’s there. By the way, time is NOT finite.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . Here’s a little quote from Time Before the Big Bang? By Roger Costello “What is being said here is not that past time is limited (finite rather than infinite), but only that our knowledge of past time is limited — limited to a time beyond which our observations and measurements cannot go. Time may extend back infinitely beyond that initial explosion of matter, out of which the present shape of the cosmos has developed, ...(read next comment for rest of quote..)
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds(cont. from previous comment)... but unless some radical alteration in our techniques and instruments of observation and measurement occurs, we will never be able to penetrate the veil that hides the infinite past from us.” – Mortimer J. Adler. However, even were there a beginning point, time will go on indefinitely. Therefore, the argument for eternity is valid.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . George Orwell once said something that rather strongly resembles my image of you: “He was an embittered atheist, the sort of atheist who does not so much disbelieve in God as dislike Him.” Now, having made my argument, I hope that you are mature enough to admit that I am indeed educated “in spite of” my beliefs. And I can assure you that I am well aware of what ‘hypocrite’ means, and you , Adamant Atheist, fit the bill precisely.
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds You may want to go from my first comment and read to the last so that all of my comments will make sense.... *shrug* just a suggestion....
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds There are many different paths to enlightenment. How one gets there isn’t important; what matters is that one reaches it in the end. The fundamentals of all predominant religions are characteristics of morality: such as justice, kindness, etc. Those characteristics are what are important to adopt in order to make oneself a better person. This can be done through personal enlightenment or through the guidance of the chosen teachers of the group of one’s choice.
I have reason. Sad sad sad doesn't get it. That is why s/he is sad. If you want to know the value of something (religious, for want of a better word) look at the results. Does this piece of music harm people, or help them? If you want to run out and rob a convenience store after listening to a piece of music, then it isn't truly from God. Allow it to help the people that it helps, and take your cynicism elsewhere. We don't need you here.
My name is just me bashing my three figners on 'a' 's' and 'd'. The fact that 'sad' came out was just a chance and meh, what would a title matter anyway?
Your argument: A society run by religious morals is a better society.
Why you're wrong: Religion has nothing to do with human morality and religion has little to do with society.
Religion has nothing to do with human morality. I'm going to explain.
There is no evidence for Christianity (or any other religion) therefor if you believe in Christianity (or any other religion) you are illogical and basically, stupid.
What does evidence help you when you open up your eyes in hell? For everything we do there is a consequence sooner or later. We shall reap what we have sown. Just because punishment is not following immediately you think you are free. But you are not. Unfortunately many will realize that when it´s too late.
Believe me I´m educated to some extend. But still there are answers that you cannot get by intellectual knowledge. There´s a peace I got when I believed in Jesus that the world cannot give. I thought and I came to the conclusion that something complicated like a human being cannot develop without an intelligence behind it, by mere mistakes, no matter how long it takes.

Homosexuals, kill them.fortunetellers, kill them. those who don`t listen to priests, kill them. those hitting their dad, kill them. those who curse their parents, kill them, adulterers, kill them. fornicators, kill them. people who believe in other religions, kill them. non-believers,kill them. fals prohets ,kill them. blasphemers, kill them. those who work on the Sabbath, kill them.

Jesus is waiting for every one of us to come to Him with all our cares and troubles and realize the sin that we are living in. He transforms and heals the most broken all for His glory. He paid a price for you. Please realize how much He loves you and wants you to be a part of His everlasting kingdom. Take a chance and ask him to come into your heart. You will be amazed at what He can do. ~God bless

Will someone to explain to me what “he died for my sins” means; because if “he” died, it was 2,000 years before my first sin. I honestly don’t get it, it requires double-think, and a time-shift. It requires that I imagine myself to be guilty of another’s misdemeanour 4 thousand years earlier than the killing. I find human sacrifice repulsive. At the moment, you see, I am firmly of the opinion that the religious texts are myth, fantasy and lies, and I chose those words carefully.
Peace on earth.

@StrumstickJoe He died for the sins of Humanity. By his death, a provision was made such that whoever commit sin and request forgiveness, such an individual will recieve pardon.

@davoyedokun No, it doesn't help. "He died for sins" I don't get it and I think human sacrifice is repulsive.
Two of the major things to overcome, (and even some scientists fall into this trap) are the desperate need to find a meaning to life; and a destination for it.
I am here for the same reason as a leaf, or a stone, or a planet, and my destiny is the same as those things.
That makes me happy enough. Despite my importance today, and my sentience, I am no more than a transient happening.

@kathleenleondahall Alright, I think "not exactly human" sacrifice is repulsive!
It is also a terrible evil to tell children they are born sinful - and yet worse to tell them that they can shed the burden of their "faults" onto someone else. That would be highly immoral.
If you HAVE done something wrong (and it's not just a false guilt imposed by the church for reasons of control) then make amends and don't walk about guilty afterwards.

@kathleenleondahall Despite your argument, I still think he is imaginary.
But, like I implied below, what if he did exist, nothing of divinity is proved and, unless you believe in zombification, he's dead and gone.
If you believe it, then surely he was preordained to die? Yes? what does that mean? How can you suggest he could have prevented it? How do you think the death had anything to do with us?
And angels...? You believe in angels?

@StrumstickJoe Now if you just had the authority to speak on such matters. Truth is not subjective. All of Christs teachings were validated the moment he rose from the dead. I will take his testimoney over yours.
2112dan2112 5 months ago
@2112dan2112 ...And who validated his rising from the dead? Nobody did to me.
And I question your argument anyway: even if the resurrection were true, then it appears, from the fact that all the graves in the city opened up that night and the dead walked the streets, that it was a positively banal occurrence.
And how does a resurrection prove the existence of a god, or that the resurrected was divine, or that he was in any way a moral example.
"His" teachings were bizarre!
StrumstickJoe 5 months ago
@StrumstickJoe Ill give you all of that, right down to the bizzare. the only one who can validate his authority is God himself. jesus said seek and you will find. As a former athiest, I realized when I heard that, it was just that simple. And he was either telling the truth or he was lying. I rose to the challenge. 20 years later and I must testify that his words rang true. You need to bluntly (minus contempt)ask God to validate himself to you. Jesus made many claims and promises, challenge him
2112dan2112 5 months ago
@2112dan2112 So did you agree that resurrection was a banal happening at the time? (I don't believe any of it happened, of course, but I was checking whether you thought that ALL those people were the sons of god)
If you believe in miracles, then either the progress of the universe has been stopped in your favour - or you have made a mistake. Truth is not subjective.
I have no testimony. The world, the universe, you me, we just IS!

@StrumstickJoe No, there just turned out NOT to be enough room to really comment on the banality of the ressurection. But when one contemplates the conviction of the men and woman of the early church who also went to thier death for thier testimoney scores points for me on the side of possibility. But ultimately, it was not thier testimonies that convinced me. He has proven himself to me because I asked him to. Go to the source Go ahead and ask him to show himself to you.

@bdpilot28 To hold one of the faiths, you have to believe that a nameless spirit-entity, without a physical brain, suddenly had the need to “think” into existence a material universe of unfathomable complexity and danger, solely to place for testing, on a precarious planet, procreating beings of many imperfections. To each of these beings he assigns an individual soul, which, without physical connection, dwells within its host during life, then “lives” on for eternity.

What does religion do other than waste some hours every Sunday, and waste some hours of individuals' time weekly through prayer?
Religion has nothing else to do with society.

Morality: a sense of behavioral conduct that differentiates right or wrong
For human societies to be successful the community needs to trust itself
Every society that had corruption ultimately collapsed
We are the outcome of successful societies and thus our morals
Society needs rules to follow or the society won't be successful and people won't be born. We are born in a successful society and so the community has these 'morals'. Not Religion.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds How you can say we are living in a "successful society" Murder happens every day, rape goes unabated, kids are taken from their families and abused some even abused by their own families. Mankind has turned away from the ways of God. But the Lord Jesus has died and shed his blood for all mankind and given each one away back to God. Through the blood of His cross and the power of His love we can claim His salvation. This is not religion this is faith and this is Gods love

1. to have a successful species is to have a continuing species, we aren't perfect but we have been continuing.
"Mankind has turned away from the ways of god."
God is responsible for massacres
God is responsible for raping and killing children
God is responsible for unnecessary stupidity.
God killed himself to have himself forgive us, and then came to life so there really was no sacrifice, sorry the entire Jesus story is pointless.
Faith is a false virtue.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Obviously you are a sad disillusioned human being. Without faith we can not live. However I will be praying for you. An atheist needs no proof that God does not exist any more than a Christian needs proof that he does. It is strange that as an atheist you blame God for the sin in this world. You obviously do believe in God. I trust that you will come to accept that His Son Jesus has died for you too but if you do not then one day he will become your judge.

1. Obviously facts make you sad and disillusioned, brah.
2. I'm living without faith.
3. I'll pray to my magic sandwich for you.
4. An atheist is not making a claim, a christian is now back yours up.
5. I never said god was responsible for sin, I think stupid people for believing in him are
6. Horus also died for your sins, for 3 days and then was resurrected and sent off to heaven, I trust you will come to accept him, or you will be judged!
retard.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds why are you commenting on a song about God if you dont believe in him. he is real and he loves everybody even if you dont believe in him he still loves you. and he is waiting for everybody to answer there heart and let him in. you really need to quit judging people for beliving in him because if you dont thats on you but stop trying to put people down because they are doing the right thing by beliving in him. because he is our heavly father and we will be with him someday.

What evidence do you have that he's real? If you cannot provide any, then there is no reason to believe in him.
Who says I'm trying to put people down?
What proof is there that he's real in order for them to do the right thing?
asdsdsdsadsadsadasds 1 year ago
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Can you provide evidence that you have a spirit or that you don't have a spirit? Jesus lives in the spirit world. The evidence of his life and death are well documented historically and can not be denied. The spirit of GOD will confirm with you that HE is real when you believe. Some will never believe what they can't see. Yet they believe their own thoughts which can't be seen or captured in a hand.

You cannot prove that something doesn't exist, but if you're going to use this argument, then you must also believe in unicorns, ferries and every possibility in existence. That's why the evidence is on the people making the claim to provide evidence for such claim. There is no evidence for the existence any god.
I don't necessarily believe only what I see, you cannot see gravity.
Evolution has every step from ape to man, and can not be denied.
See how I turned that back on you?

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Aren't you a bit of a hypocrite ? Why are you listening and watching this video praising Jesus, if you don't believe in God ? What made you come here in the first place ? Can't believe you'd be so vicious as to make inflammatory remarks just for the heck of it.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds Even the majority of atheists have a code of conduct by which they live… some would term this morality. Historically, religion has been used as a form of control through fear and punishment. However, a great many people invest much hope and devotion into their beliefs in exchange for comfort and peace of mind. So, just because you have not found your comfort and peace of mind, doesn’t give you or anyone else the right to take it away from those who have.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . I, myself, am a devout Christian (also a 23 year-old college student), and I have an open mind. My boyfriend of 5 years is an agnostic (who grew up in a Jehovah’s Witness family) and though he may not agree with our beliefs, he does not ridicule us for them. As I have said, I am devout in my faith, but that does not mean I follow my religion blindly. Do I take everything in the Bible literally? No, I do not.
clpruett87 11 months ago
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . If something fantastical is said to have happened, I view it more as metaphorical guidance rather than literal translation. But that doesn’t mean I scoff at everything in it, or at others who may take it more literally than I. You say we are close-minded… Close-minded: intolerant of the beliefs of others; stubbornly unreceptive to new ideas. One could argue that this definition perfectly describes you in your view toward religious people.
clpruett87 11 months ago
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds It is well-known that the mind is incapable of comprehending anything larger than itself… Yours appears exceptionally small- and you have the nerve to accuse others of being close-minded. And let’s not forget how arrogant we supposedly are. Weren’t you the one who first started pushing your beliefs on the people on this page, so it begs the question: Who is the arrogant party?
clpruett87 11 months ago
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds ? Perhaps you should take a little time out of your time belittling others to study a little more in-depth the philosophy of Descartes… He held more sway over his audience in proving the existence of God than do you in your quest to prove otherwise. Maybe that’s because he didn’t insult them, and more efficiently organized his arguments. Maybe it cannot be proved that God exists, but neither can it be proved otherwise.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds One cannot prove there are other dimensions, but scientists are fairly certain they are there. But I predict that you would not contradict them because of their generally unreligious points of view. One cannot see time either, but we all know it’s there. By the way, time is NOT finite.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . Here’s a little quote from Time Before the Big Bang? By Roger Costello “What is being said here is not that past time is limited (finite rather than infinite), but only that our knowledge of past time is limited — limited to a time beyond which our observations and measurements cannot go. Time may extend back infinitely beyond that initial explosion of matter, out of which the present shape of the cosmos has developed, ...(read next comment for rest of quote..)

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds(cont. from previous comment)... but unless some radical alteration in our techniques and instruments of observation and measurement occurs, we will never be able to penetrate the veil that hides the infinite past from us.” – Mortimer J. Adler. However, even were there a beginning point, time will go on indefinitely. Therefore, the argument for eternity is valid.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds . George Orwell once said something that rather strongly resembles my image of you: “He was an embittered atheist, the sort of atheist who does not so much disbelieve in God as dislike Him.” Now, having made my argument, I hope that you are mature enough to admit that I am indeed educated “in spite of” my beliefs. And I can assure you that I am well aware of what ‘hypocrite’ means, and you , Adamant Atheist, fit the bill precisely.

@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds There are many different paths to enlightenment. How one gets there isn’t important; what matters is that one reaches it in the end. The fundamentals of all predominant religions are characteristics of morality: such as justice, kindness, etc. Those characteristics are what are important to adopt in order to make oneself a better person. This can be done through personal enlightenment or through the guidance of the chosen teachers of the group of one’s choice.
clpruett87 11 months ago
I have reason. Sad sad sad doesn't get it. That is why s/he is sad. If you want to know the value of something (religious, for want of a better word) look at the results. Does this piece of music harm people, or help them? If you want to run out and rob a convenience store after listening to a piece of music, then it isn't truly from God. Allow it to help the people that it helps, and take your cynicism elsewhere. We don't need you here.

My name is just me bashing my three figners on 'a' 's' and 'd'. The fact that 'sad' came out was just a chance and meh, what would a title matter anyway?
Your argument: A society run by religious morals is a better society.
Why you're wrong: Religion has nothing to do with human morality and religion has little to do with society.
Religion has nothing to do with human morality. I'm going to explain.
Look above this comment for my explanations.

There is no evidence for Christianity (or any other religion) therefor if you believe in Christianity (or any other religion) you are illogical and basically, stupid.
You might as well believe I'm bulletproof.

What does evidence help you when you open up your eyes in hell? For everything we do there is a consequence sooner or later. We shall reap what we have sown. Just because punishment is not following immediately you think you are free. But you are not. Unfortunately many will realize that when it´s too late.

I "waste my time" to let you understand that being closed-minded and blind has caused you to waste your most special gift of all
You're brain
You won the lottery just by being brought to life, there were millions of possibilities of other people but YOU were lucky enough to have been born
Now you are wasting this precious gift with closed-minds and arrogance
I feel sorry for the millions who didn't come to life, when people like you did

So your mission is to convert others to your "faith"?

@Annemone2009
Atheism is not a faith.
That's like saying black is a colour. (It's spelled like that in New Zealand).
No. I don't want people to blindly 'convert' to atheism.
I just want people to think and be educated, I assure you, once you begin to think, you will drop your religion.
Once you start to think rationally, you will become an atheist (or at least an agnostic).
Simply because: There is no evidence for god, so why should you believe in him?
asdsdsdsadsadsadasds 1 year ago
@asdsdsdsadsadsadasds
Believe me I´m educated to some extend. But still there are answers that you cannot get by intellectual knowledge. There´s a peace I got when I believed in Jesus that the world cannot give. I thought and I came to the conclusion that something complicated like a human being cannot develop without an intelligence behind it, by mere mistakes, no matter how long it takes.
Annemone2009 1 year ago
@Annemone2009
The only real points you made in there were:
"Human beings are too complicated to be developed naturally"
and
"by mere mistakes"
the DNA difference between a human being and an ape is 2%. Problem 1 solved
Natural Selection is not "mere mistake". Problem 2 solved
You just turned the conversation to evolution, a topic which you showed, you don't have the slightest idea of.
I'm not insulting you, I'm just saying you need to understand something before you can argue against it
