  • @commanche213

    I don't think any of Skillet's stuff is the same. Each album is different, so... :/

  • D: Why you disrespect evolution? It makes tons of sense. Has anyone seen Stephen Hawking's documentary proving God

  • God doesnt believe in atheists X) haha

  • No offense to skillet.. but i am not really a fan of their new music. :/ like lucy and never surrender were it on Awake, and looking for angels was pretty much it on Comatose. I miss the Invincible/Alien Youth/Collide Skillet!

  • first i was like >:( then i was like :D

  • Skillet has always been a christian band from the start some of their songs are christan and some are just plain rock.

    

  • AWESOME

  • Evolution didn't take Jesus' place. Jesus existed and nothing will change that. Why can't the idea of evolution and God coexist?

  • im not christian but i love this band!!!

  • Atheists have it all wrong may God save there souls from hell

  • Thumbs up if you're an atheist or agnostic.

  • I <3 JESUS

  • I need glass's ... i read Skillet not "Religious argue" , maybe just me.

    Skillet <3

  • What does it say in the very beginning? It's driving me insane not knowing!!

  • @coolestmomintheworld i must beleive

  • @coolestmomintheworld

    our eyes belive ...... that's what i hear :/ :D

  • Replace "God" and "Jesus" with "Gaia", "evolution" with "technology", and "his"/"him" with "hers"/"her", and you'll get my beliefs :)

  • @Lovedrawing1 leave it the same and youve got mine :)

  • love this song, don't really believe in the lyrics but as a song its incredible :)

  • this song is weird i don't get the lyrics, and the music sounds neat, but i just don't get the point.

  • this song was in test drive 5 ps1 days

  • I like this band but not for lyrics... There are only several neutral songs which i like.

  • @graffikart i agree

  • I love how they became a Christian band<3<3

  • @MsLissyyy me 2

    

  • @MsLissyyy theyve been a christian band since the beginning...

    incase you dont know, this song is from 2001, and the first song on their first album called I Can is very Christian, and another song on that album called Paint is about the fall of man and Adam and Eve in the garden

  • @MsLissyyy became? listen to their very first album, they always were :D

  • Comment removed

  • Thumbs up if you don't care about any religion but love this song =D

  • i have tried to find a lousy song by skillet.....i had no luck

  • I'm just gunna put it this way: God is real hell is real heavon is real and sation is real

  • I like how the two top comments are the exact opposite of eachother.

  • @CrazedNovaProduction lol you're in REALLY bad luck XD

  • OK can we plz just enjoy and band and their amazing song and keep ur believe to ur self! and stop fighting about it -_-

  • I agree with you.. You believe Christ is reigning His thousand year (It's not a literal thousand.. because it started 2,011 years ago when He ascended into Heaven) reign right now (that's called postmilleniasm, it's one of the oldest most proven views around) But you could have that right.. My bible is NKJ. Bible's do vary in wording.. what is some of the wording your's uses? I'll give you one or two verses from mine if you wish.

  • @Killacookie95 Where is this verse coming from? Revelation?

    

  • Skillet is a christian band and THEY ARE NOT MISTAKEN this is what they believe and I agree with every word they say/sing in this song!!!

  • OMFG! Up this so it can be seen. He wrote this after attending a Marylin Manson concert. Funny he's made about Manson saying god is dead, but his favorite band is NIN, perhaps he never heard Heresy????

  • LOL i love how people think this is actually against Jesus and they don't realize its Skillet telling us what they are lying to us, Skillet is christian band.

  • I LOVE JESUS I DON'T THINK THIS SONG IS CORRECT AT THE BEGINNING

  • do u think that Jesus really died? cuz i do believe that he didn't died

  • @BLUE7404

    I think that he died.

  • @BLUE7404

    then he rose from the dead

  • @Scionwoods

    u are so lame

    hewas never dead

  • @BLUE7404

    Your wrong, jesus died for our sins then rose from the dead three days later.

  • @BLUE7404

    Your wrong, jesus died for our sins then rose from the dead three days later.

  • @BLUE7404 Christ? Yes.. He died.. went to Hell for three days.... then rose again.. and ascended to Heaven forty days

  • @Killacookie95 O_O Jesus went to Hell?!?!

  • @xXRevenantAngelXx Yes, but not because he deserved it.. He is God.. and He CREATED Hell.. So he has the power to go there.. read Psalm 139: 8 if you'd like proof of that.. And Heaven is a place with Christ's physical presence before you. So when He was there it wasnt like Hell to Him.

  • @Killacookie95 ??? you need to go back and read a Bible. Jesus was dead in the grave from Friday night to Sunday mourning. He didn't go to hell. Hell doesn't exist yet.

  • @Kenny414G Read Psalm 139:8 like I said.. Psalms in in the Old Testament.. BEFORE CHRIST (B.C) so if there's a reference to Hell before Christ.. Then there was a Hell when Christ walked the Earth and there still is one... What do you take the word Hell to mean there then?

    And have you heard the Apostles Creed? I suggest you look it up.

  • @Killacookie95 I looked up those text and none of them mentioned hell at least in the NIV. But I agree with you that eventually there will be a hell just not until after Jesus comes and the thousand years in heaven are up. Than when the rightous people come back to Earth God will protect them but destroy the rest of the Earth and the people that didnt accept salvation and loved evil with the lake of fire or hell.

  • @Kenny414G Check in Theselonians. Don't know if I spelled that right.

  • @Kenny414G I also suggest you read Luke 16: 19-31, Acts 2:27, Psalms 55:15, and Isaiah 14:9. .. These references all mention Hell or Hades (you should know that's the same thing). Some in future tense.. some in present and past.. Hell is as real as you or me, as Heaven or Earth..And there are yet more verses still.. I can give them too if you can't find them..

  • @Killacookie95 Oh and about the Apostles Creed. I don't believe in that since im not a Catholic or a Lutheran or a Methodist etc.

  • @Kenny414G Well what about the Scripture references then? ALL CHRISTIANS BELIEVE THE SCRIPTURES.. It's God's word.. and get this.. I'm a Protestant in a C.r.e.c (Christian reformed evangelical church) And I believe it because it's the creed about Christ from the people who knew Him the best and the people who had the Holy Spirit (who is God) therefore had God with them.. Therefore what they said WAS TRUE.. and 2 and 2 together.. comes out to The Apostles Creed IS THE WORD OF GOD THROUGH MAN.

  • @Killacookie95 Growing up I was taught that hell won't arrive till the second coming of Christ. First the pure of heart will be raised from the dead to study the history of God and the earth for a thousand years so we will understand everything. While this is happening Satan will be chained to the earth. Then they will return to raise the wicked dead to destroy them and the earth along with satan. After everything has been destroyed a new earth will be made for God's people.

  • @Killacookie95 Jesus... didn't go to Hell. He went to Paradise, where He gathered the old testament saints and brang them to Heaven.

  • @TheGokua Where does it say that? I didn't get that at all.

  • @abigaelruth23 What did I say? I can't find my comment. xD

  • @TheGokua lol :D try pressing ctrl and 'f' and then type what youre searching for (in this case, you should type up your username) in the search bar that pops up and it'll highlight everything that matches the thing you typed in.........if that makes any sense :P

  • its kinda hard to take the song seriously at the begging but later it gets awesome

  • i love skillet!!!

  • in the begining is it saying i must believe??

  • THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! ^.^y THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! ^.^y THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! ^.^y THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! THIS SONG IS MIGHTY! ^.^y THIS SONG IS MIGHTY!

  • @RawrLydiaLikesYou

    u sucks u u sucks 

  • thumbs up if you don't care about @maxzburatorul 's comment and just want to listen to the song

  • @mikeimmenga hmm?

  • @maxzburatorul thats always :D

  • Honestly Skillets songs are really good on telling how the world can mess with us and i believe this song is saying that he believes in god and that he doesnt wanna hear that he isnt because god is alive an he lives an always will<3

  • pretty awesome song :D I don't believe in god, but its inspiring how much passion Skillet have for their faith and what they believe <3 personally I don't think there is ever going to be just one man to "save" humanity... I Believe humanity as a whole are the only ones who should save themselves... they just need to realise, that we all live under the same sky we all live and we all die. I think if people believe in themselves they are unstoppable.

  • ok look god is not real if he is which he is not i will say sorry and accept a eternety in hell but let me see so will every single one of you people out there god said in one of the 10 commandments love thy neighbour and reading these comments all you fucking fags are hateing atheist and other religons so enjoy hell dumbasses i know i will

  • @deidara69100 Part of this is true. There are a lot of hypocrits out there, and I am so sorry for those such as them, and for you guys who have to put up with it. Not trying to start an arguement, you can believe what you want, but I will speak the truth: God is real. We are the very proof that God is real, because an explosion cannot create a world in a perfect spot away from the son, create water, life, etc. It makes as much sense as you think God does. But I'm done with religion. God bless!

  • @WheresTheLove02 A chemical explosion can possibly make a world perfect every way. Everything is made of chemicals. But this is only a theory that can never be proven unless it can be reproduced.

  • @deidara69100 Oh and I don't mean done, as in, I'm done believing, I mean I'm done talking about it. Take care!

  • we shouldn't hate anyone, but we need to tell them about the gospel message and hope they see the truth , that God is very real and he sent his Son to die for our sins . im not sure what some of you mean about not having a problem with other religions ? . Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. John 14:6 every other religion is not ok . it is separation from God and the wonderful future he has for you!

  • "Burn reptiles! Baby wings!" XD -the beginning.

  • @BeyondtheChaos1 That sounds so funny but it does sound like it in the intro :P

  • Dear God: Thanks for dying on the cross for our sins.... And another big thanks for bringing us Skillet!

  • @LordKidOfDeath Wasn't that Jesus?

  • @Lyricsguy971 In the bible, or at least I think it was the bible, it says that God, Jesus, and Christ, are in terms, the same person.

  • @LordKidOfDeath Ok thanks for clearing it up :).

  • @LordKidOfDeath It was in the bible and yea thats right :D

  • @LordKidOfDeath

    u and the dust and the lame peple are the same person

  • Never let yourself be diverted by what you wish to believe.

  • It's rippin me off to see my friends who are fans of Manson...

  • personally i dont believe in god or the devil .... but skillet it awsome !

  • hey my mistake,. i meant to say that true christians do not have a problem with other reigions, sorry if thats not what it sounds like

  • Hey haters, christianity is believed to be all about going to church and getting baptised and reading the bible. While all of htis is an important part of it, the main thing is about the bond that christians , like myself, have to Jesus Christ. I was a Hindu before i came to Australia and started listening to skillet. In a way skillet saved my soul and i am immensly greatful to that. i do not have, as a true chrsitian should, any problems against aethists or any religions.

  • @XNiteAngelX

    You said this a long time ago (about 8 pages from where I am...) But anyways, I'm glad that you feel that way. It's really annoying to see Christians treat those people in a way they shouldn't, what's really supposed to occur is brotherly love and the want to show Christ as a result of this love. Thank you for knowing this part of Christ's teaching very well, because it's very rare.

  • @n147258noah Hey thanks. i just get sick and tired of people misunderstanding christianity. theysteryotype everything.

  • Personally, I'm an atheist, however, I still enjoy this song. Seriously, people who are different religions shouldn't hate the son because it's about God.

  • who cares what religion you are? I dont, all i know is that I love Skillet <3

  • @lostandmisused i so agree :)))) thank you:)

  • @musicismywholelife95 hah ur welcome im just sayin it shouldnt matter hah skillet is just an awesome band, period.

  • reading through the comments about people being atheist, christian, and other makes me think what really are we

    i deeply believe in god, in jesus christ my parents are catholic and they tell me to go to church but i dont

    why?

    because the church is not what we think it is no offense to those who go to church

    but i dont like it's system.

  • A guy a couple off comments below said 14 athiests r here I am a athiest by choice and am deeply offened by comments like this in fact every1 in this worlds going too hell 1 wars. 2 all those perfect Christians like that cunt I said about for hateing athiests as it says in the bible dnt hate 3 raceism I could go on for fuckin hours but that guy is a dickhead who rapes kids. If I'm wrong about god I'd happily admit it so would countless others except dickcheese below

  • @deidara69100 christian isn't a lable it's a life style, and not all of us hate athiests, we simply want to see you saved, and to welcome you into our family :) 

  • @soccer16dewey I agree completely!!!!!

  • @AyameKira14 :) Glad to know i'm not the only one who feels that way

  • @soccer16dewey ok so hang on save us from what let me just say GODS NOT REAL

  • @deidara69100 Tell him that when your on your knees infront of him someday asking him to forgive you for not believing in him...

  • 13 people are atheists

  • @SpottedRain1398 I'm atheist and I love this song and Skillet.

  • @CrouchLeStrange I'm sorry to hear that. Have do you know you are an atheist?

  • @CrouchLeStrange im athiest as well but skillet is my lifee :)

  • @CrouchLeStrange im not against athiesm, but how can you look at how complex our world is and say God doesn't exist? the chance of that happening is almost 0, and wouldnt it be more assuring to have a religion just to be safe? i'm just curious,

  • @cinematographystudio Have a look into the blind watchmaker argument, and the big crunch/big bang cycle theory.

  • @cinematographystudio What if the religion you're in is wrong? Why is it that some people put so much faith in something invented by humans? I'm sure if there is a God he will take mercy on all of us because we cannot directly know what he needs and wants from us exactly.

  • @CrouchLeStrange christ is real my friend he loves u no matter what u have done!!!!!!!!!

  • I dont believe in god or anything i also believe that people mad him up to numb there pain....

    BUT THIS SONG IS SOO FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!!!

    I LOVE SKILLET!!!!!

  • @TheOfekofek123 yo u shoudl believe in God,im not forcing u to do tht but its for ur own good man!!if theres no God?what is the worlds secret hwo did we get here who created us??

  • JOHN WAS BLONDE FOR THIS ALBUM?! FUCK THE WHAAAAT? I love this darker hair on him.

    I was Christian, and I loved Skillet

    I'm sorta... I duunno what now

    AND I LOVE SKILLET <3

  • for some reason i cant get with the pre-collide songs from skillet

  • @theqrokz I feel ya there.

  • I love this song so much ... I grew up in a non-Christian family that forces religion down my throat.. But im a Christian & Always will be <3 this song explains just how I feel.

  • One thing I noticed: he doesn't actually prove the counter arguments wrong... He just calls them names and says that they're 'ripping me off'... And there are some pretty valid points stated against Christianity...

    Like seriously, what was God doing when millions of Japanese died in the last month? What about the tornadoes in the states? Where is God in them? What about the flooding in Iraq? Most if those people never learned about christanity... Wheres Gods love in that?

  • @gingerchick007 i can ask you a lot of question's that know one know's answer to. that is why there is Heaven and Hell. when you die you ethier get eternal punishment or Heaven. know one can understand God.

  • @gingerchick007 They said, “Each of you must turn from your wicked ways and reform your actions; do not follow other gods to serve them. Then you will live in the land I have given to you and your ancestors.” But you have not paid attention or listened to me. 16 The descendants of Jehonadab son of Rekab have carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not obeyed me.’

  • @gingerchick007 17(cont.2) “Therefore this is what the LORD God Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘Listen! I am going to bring on Judah and on everyone living in Jerusalem every disaster I pronounced against them. I spoke to them, but they did not listen; I called to them, but they did not answer.’"(jeremiah35:15-16...v­erse 15 is kinda cut in half)...I asked God to give me somethin to show u and He gave me that...God's love is still there...'God chastises those whom He loves'.

  • @gingerchick007

    "...Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?..." Job 2:10. As humans, we seem to think we're fine all by ourselves when everything is well. When something bad happens, we immediately blame God for not protecting us...We have to respect both swords of the coin. God blesses us in innumerable ways, yet when a single curse falls upon us, we seem stricken. He died for me. I live for Him. God Bless!

  • onafia thanks. lol. and i agree :) marylin manson is a horrible person. hopefully he can still change though...but i doubt it...Even his music is pretty bad, not just the lyrics imo.

  • WOW! Who say's there is no such thing as chistian Rock, WHO !?!?!

  • Im Catholic..

    I LOVE SKILLET! <3

    Awesome band, their songs are great with mad as beats! XD

  • any 1 know what John says @ very begining of song w/ autotune?

  • @cmsbobcatfootball7 Al-wa-a-ays be-e-lieve.

    lol I'm trying to type it how it sounds xD

  • @drago939393 This is an awesome video. PS what John was stating was what he believes in. He doesn't say anything against any other religions, he's just saying believe in what you want to believe in and don't insult other religions. Chillax. Not to go against your religion BTW but 4 me it's God/Jesus/Skillet 4 evr!!

  • @cmsbobcatfootball7 the word chillax is against my religion, it is an exclusive religion revolving around dictionaries and proper grammar!

  • Comment removed

  • The music is good (though I like their new style).

    However, as an atheist, I dislike that this song has such a "pro-Christian" message. Usually they aren't direct and "aggressive" like this, and they cater to their non-Christian listeners with songs that can be interpreted in different ways; However, here, they are just "F-you atheists, how can you say something like that?"

    I'm guessing that something pissed them/him of before writing this song, but still, it ain't okay...

  • @drago939393 no offense but how do atheist have funerals?

  • I think this is one of my fave albums <3 I love all their music. I've been listening to them since I was in diapers I think.......at least since I was 6 for sure.

  • what a wierd soundin intro

  • This album, while it may be a bit weird for some, is still very good and carries through with as great and powerful a message as ever.

    Keep on rocking, Skillet.

  • does anyone know what he is saying in the beginning?

    This song is awesome.

    Btw John Cooper wrote this song after attending a Marilyn Manson concert, which was apparently popular at the time. He was disgusted at how Manson led people against Jesus and Christianity.

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy first awesome name and marilyn manson was my douche bags ex bfs fave artist or what evr thats wen i should i have known but marilyn manson is a horrible person!!!!!!!!

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy hes saying i must beleive

  • @MrCrazymonkeys1234 really? it doesnt sound like it at all... though, it kinda does when played backwards...are you sure? I'm thinking that it's just for effect. no meaning, just to sound cool lol.

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy yes im sure listen real carefully

  • @MrCrazymonkeys1234 I hear "Always believe" because to me I must believe sounds too robotic and forceful. idk. like I hear "Alwa-a-ays be-elieve"

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy he is saying are you guys rippin me

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy are you guys rippin me?<~~ that.

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy I just went and listened to part of a Marilyn Manson song, I had no idea he was a guy! lol.

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy goes to prove that sometimes, your worst enemies give you the best ideas.

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy bro he says rippin meeee, oooffffffff

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy to me it sounds like he's saying "I must believe"

  • @infernoherosmasher heh yea same here.

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy well the last bit he says Rippn me ....the first part is harder to hear....it might either be our lives or our wings

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy I think he is saying "clap your hands"

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy sounds like hes saying "im at odds with the world" 

  • @UndeniablyInsaneGuy my sis belives every word he speaks such as- everybody expresses themselfs diffrently,a murder does it by murdering,even if it's wrong they were rasied up wrong.wow

    and a raiper is just doing it the same way.and i said,"mayb he's just obssesed with sex"but no,marylin manson is perfect,so i was wrong automaticly.

    ugh,such a nieve,stuiped,evil sister i have

  • =(

  • iloveLABandSKILLET - i am being a three year old for what? voicing my opinion? this is a christian band so obviously people are going to be talking about god and preaching. coming here and getting mad for christians being christians is stupid. i believe he was rude so i had the right to be rude back. so why dont you be a good little wanna be christian and stay out of other peoples business. Thanks.

  • nastyv3548 - i am not "preaching" im simply stating the true message skillet tries to say in their songs. i never said non christians cant listen to skillet. so calm yourself down, and shut your mouth about stuff you dont even have anything to do with. pinkprogram gave their opinion and i gave mine. end of discusion.

  • Why are people always preaching. For the millionth time" YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE CHRISTIAN TO LISTEN TO SKILLET. THE ONLY THING THAT MATTER IS THAT YOU LIKE SKILLET"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • PinkProgram - those that you just described are the pretend christians. i am a christian and i dont ask for your vote money or devotion. and maybe you dont believe there is a God but i represent the one true God who loves us all. and through his love whether you hate christians or not i love you as my own family. despite what you believe because in the end were all human and all the same. homosapiens trying to make it through life.just wanting to be happy.

  • o.O well I'm disappointed... how can a god be dead if it never existed in the first place? Its the one's who claim god loves you and wants your devotion/vote/money that are ripping people off... pathetic primate totem worship >.<
