Do you REALLY believe?

[capoa2]

thank you for making me want to become an atheist

[mreh5an]

"AS A CHRISTIAN..." shattafakap buddy [video stopped].

[Toggen62]

How can any faith or action be really true as long we are born, live and will die as sinners? My way, reading the bible/quran and helping old and sick people won't stop God sending me to hell to gether with rapist and serial killers. You talk about God's way as the only way, ok, but WHAT is that way?

[PirateXzibit]

@Toggen62 "Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, except through Me.” (John 14:6)

Jesus is the way. Take it or leave it.

[patfarlow]

HAHAHA

you provided zero proof of fire

hes correct to doubt you..........

do you get it??

[PunkPoser123]

If we can only love our enemies while they're loving us, then maybe we don't believe.

[MrRunningwolfe]

Great message...well presented. And I love the shirt, man ! I remember when the Jesus people use to wear those and hand the One Way stickers. I have always loved that simple sign with said it all. Thanks for posting the video,

[redbonesmkia]

Great video this is so true!!

[Zekian]

If you kept telling me there was a fire in my house, and i smelt no smoke, heard no fire alarms and could not find the fire, I would continue to go about my business. I might entertain your notion out of politeness and to help stop you bugging me ;)

[theTRUTHgroup]

The fire is not what's in question.

The fire is VERY real.

The choice is whether or not you will heed the warning.

If you do not, you will suffer the consequences.

[imvold]

I realise it's not a fire that your reffering to, and stating something does not make it true.

[lordjashis]

How do you KNOW that the fire is VERY real? Others , like seventh day adventists, claim to KNOW that there is no fire, but only eternal separation from god... different religions or denominations give different warnings or no warnings, and they all claim to be the TRUTH... how is that?

[theTRUTHgroup]

There's a LOT of false teaching and beliefs in this world.

I would encourage you to do some research and find out what's what.

God's truth is available to all who seek.

[lordjashis]

Sir, you haven't answered my question. Like every other fundamentalist, you claim to have faith in the TRUE religion but you provide no evidence or reasoning. I'll ask you again: how do you know that the fire is very real? did god tell you? how do you know that the bible is true and the qur'an -just to name one holy book- is false? btw, I've done a lot of research (and I keep doing research).

[theTRUTHgroup]

Awesome.

Then, I hope you keep searching. And, I pray that God open your eyes to the truth.

Thanks for watching.

[Flamefrog]

@theTRUTHgroup ...wow, you just proved lordjashis's point. You didn't give any evidence of your claim that your God is the "right" god, you just shrugged it off and told him he was "wrong" in a very arrogant and condescending way. See, this is where you Fundies get to me. You don't give any evidence whatsoever, but you continue to sit up on your pedastal, with the high-minded idea that you're the only ones that know the "true way".

[ClassicCartoonsGuy]

@lordjashis While Hell is a real place, the term "fire" in this video is not so much speaking of hell as it is complete and total destruction (e.g. eternal separation from God). While I don't know that much about the beliefs of Seventh Day Adventists, I do know that you clearly do not understand the concept of the metaphor, which is such a shame. I'm a Double-Major in Literary English and History in college, so your comment makes me sick.

[Boxcutter7]

You shouldn't believe in a fairy tale in which your god sends people to hell without even showing himself or talking to them. That's the problem with your tax-exempt club: the threat of hell for disbelief & disobedience. An atheist could hear the message & choose to accept jesus into his heart, but it's still a placebo. You say you "gotta go god's way", but you don't even explain how or what that is!

[Darverses]

Or maybe you just deny His existence to protect yourself because you know that if God did exist, you'd be in deep shit.

Now tell me, what exactly is wrong with believing in God?

According to you, it's a "fairytale," so I'll call it that for now, but what is wrong with believing in a fairytale that tells you you are loved by God, you should help people and stay away from sinful things, instead of a cosmic explosion that says you don't matter in life and there are no morals?

[Boxcutter7]

I find nothing wrong with CHILDREN believing in fairy tales up to a certain age. You can't WANT something into existence even if it sounds nice. LMFAO We don't need a god or religion to have morals! Most of the sins in the bible are common sense, others are not bad, & none are worthy of ETERNAL TORTURE (except maybe mass murder, which your god ordered many times)!

"If we believe absurdities, we shall commit atrocities." [Voltaire]

[Darverses]

Those sins are only "common sense" though because you were raised on them, believe it or not. And yes we do need a God to have morals or else those morals are subjective, thus just mere opinions.

When did God ever order anyone to commit mass murder? Please show me the scriptures so I can debunk them yet again.

[Boxcutter7]

The god of the bible committed mass murder with the great flood; he murdered many with plagues in Egypt & elsewhere; Sodom & Gomorra (not all of them were wicked or deserving of death);ordered the children of Is Ra El (Isis, Ra, and a couple Mediterranean gods) aka israel to massacre all the Canaanites, somone [I think David] slayed over 200 [Pharisees I think] & cut off their foreskins for payment of his wife; etc.

[paulepaulets]

See, the problem with this argument is that there clearly is no evidence that the house is on fire. So until your buddy sees or smells some fire or smoke, he's gonna go about his day.

[Ironhoist]

I love the way that the gospel is delivered with a comic twist.

Man i want to hear that drummer in the video "lay it down". it was sounding pretty cool! :]

[RonnocRetep]

why is it your responsibility, it is as much of your responsibility as it is my responisbility to inform you believing a book that someone wrote thousands of years ago is a waste of time

[philos71]

Very, very good. You're very eloquent, Daniel. I see you in front of the Dallas Cowboys, giving them their daily devotions, as their chaplain.... I hope this is a prophecy and it's not from the flesh.

[theTRUTHgroup]

Sounds good to me!

I wonder, does the Chaplain get a ring, too? ;)

[lastdaysguitar]

It's pretty predictable to see how various folks handle these truths Daniel is speaking of.

HEY! WAKE UP!!

God exists Athiests... get a bible and learn who He IS... not just what some youtube demon athiest told you to say.

[RonnocRetep]

Why the bible? why not any book about any God?

you claim God exists, yet you have no proof. I could write a book about a God, doesn't make it any more real than the bible

[lastdaysguitar]

@RonnocRetep

Read the bible in truth and you will understand it is not just any other book, but the very word of God.

[RonnocRetep]

On what basis do you have that it is the word of God, the truth is you don't have any proof

you are blinded by faith

[lastdaysguitar]

@RonnocRetep

Ephesians 4:17-19

17This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

18Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:

19Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

[RonnocRetep]

All you are doing is quoting words from someone thousands of years ago.

I can quote mickey mouse but it does not mean there is a God

[trumpetz09]

@RonnocRetep Book of Revelations..The last book of the Bible. It describes things that have already happened and things that will happen in the future. A bible is "from some thousands of years ago" but can just anyone accurately describe events that will happen...before they happen. An earthly man will try to predict the future but Revelations is the ONLY accurate prophecy. If that's not enough to make you believe.... then keep doing things your way and leave yourself doomed.

[Boxcutter7]

The book of Revelations is very symbolic and wholly open to interpretation. Not only that, but prophecies are self-fulfilling. They are also made to be fulfilled on purpose. Case in point is the political influential group called "christian zionists" that are trying to "push" the end times, "hurry" god's rapture. World leaders are trying to fulfill the prophecies are purpose. Wars in the middle east have been going on for over a millenia!

[phatcartoon]

Hey, stop lieing. It's not good to lie to someone just to get them to they follow what you do. There was no fire. Your friend saw there was no proof of fire. Let him jam, he had a good beat going.

[Eron2828]

I`m not lost. This video fails.

[theTRUTHgroup]

The first step is admitting the problem.

As long as you believe you're not lost, you'll never be found.

[Eron2828]

Bull.

The last thing I would do if I were lost, in any case, is turn to a fictitious god.

[theTRUTHgroup]

Well, that's a relief.

Then you should have no problem turning to the true and living God of the Bible.

I'd love to meet you when we get to the other side.

I'm pulling for you. :)

[Eron2828]

You mean the god who tells us to stone adulterers and disobedient children (or alternatively, sends bears to maul dozens of children who mocked the baldness of a prophet)?

Not that I need to worry. The Judeo-Christian god is among the most fictitious.

[christlover3000]

@Eron2828 they were not children they were older teenagers seriously they were old enough to see that they were in the wrong the prophet warned them and they did not listen.

[Eron2828]

@christlover3000 Oh. I guess that makes it okay then...

*SARCASM*

[TheLORDismySheperd1]

Great video guys!! I am always using this metaphor with my family too!

Keep on glorifying GOD!!!

[rgandy123]

LOL my way is goofed up. Praise the Lord!!!

[EWETUBER2]

James' illustration in his Epislte using Abraham and Rahab were also inaccurate. WE today can go check the OT scriptures and see that for ourselves..

So quoting James and what he said is sometimes like quoting what Peter said or did.. in John 13:8 or John 18:10..18:26,27 or Galatians 2:11,12. Scripture teaches that Peter at times..made mistakes...The same goes for James and what he said.

Just be a good Acts 17:11 Berean and go check out James..don't deify him.

[EWETUBER2]

3:19 Re-check your teaching notes on what Paul said in Romans 2:4.. because we don't even have the capacity to repent and "turn from...to".. in and of ourselves..!

So what you said is inaccurate. GOD is the one who leads you and I to repentance and he does that by the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. So..they need to hear the Gospel message preached properly..correctly..and then they have the chance to "hear"..and be saved by Faith in Jesus Christ and repent of their sins.

[EWETUBER2]

1:49 Read what James said in his Epistle..James 2-14 and 2-17 then go and read what JESUS said in LUKE 7:50..

Does it match..? No it doesn't..so why doesn't it...?

I'll stick with what JESUS said ..because of what John 7:5 says about James..!

[EWETUBER2]

James was inaccurate with what he said in his Epistle about Faith..!

For the REAL biblical teachings on James..read John 7:3,7 it's there that Jesus shows us how James liked to do his works. Acts 15:21 where James like the Pharisee..quotes his favorite spiritual authority when making decisions..and ACTS 21:20,21 where James makes his "statement of Faith"..about how he lives his life..as a zealot..under bondage to the OT Law and not a zealot to Jesus..!

[EWETUBER2]

Believe and Faith are NOT synonyms...!

[halcain]

Romans 10:9- That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God raised from the dead, thou shalt be saved

Romans 10:13- For whomsoever calleth upon the name of the Lord shall be saved

This is th only way:)

[MeanHacker]

good job!!! I really loved the concept and the message!!! God Bless you Daniel!

[beverly92552]

Thanks good message

[babaganoug]

why did god light the house on fire?

[Epoch03]

so so very true keep up the good work Dan and mark. Oh yeah i went to school for stuff like video editing and animation once i'm done with my schooling or when i have some time i may be able to help. God Bless you. BTW i think the editing was just fine it served its purpose good job guys. =D

[Epoch03]

wow whats up mark =D

[Blogrich55]

Faith is a gift of God. My comment about the satanic lie was directed at bigjared420

[baltusd]

I WANT to get it, but I DON'T want to follow God.

[theTRUTHgroup]

God is all there is to get.

The only way someone wouldn't want the perfect love and supremacy of God is if they don't understand it yet.

You may be closer than you think.

[theTRUTHgroup]

Kent who?

[NoaahsArk]

why?

[edensapples]

My pastor was speaking on this topic today! Praise God :)

[atrasz]

You are coo coo for coco puffs crazy.

[BigDickandLittleJon]

No smoke, no alarm, no flames, no panic from the messenger. The guy seems pretty well justified in not hurrying out the door. Similarly, in the absence of the slightest hint of evidence for the existence of any gods, the most rational reaction to paranoid alarm-ism, is nothing.

[superextremelaser]

well put BigDick :)

[annahpanna]

love this =)

[ThisIsMySockAccount]

Very good message Daniel. It's so hard to watch people comment sometimes. Trying to comically turn this message into something else. They are about to die in that fire and sleeping too hard to get and get out before they die. :o(

[krisv001]

good video !

[philos71]

God called you to be a teacher my friend. Very very good. Keep going, Daniel, don't stop.

[theTRUTHgroup]

Too bad He didn't call me to be a video editor. :(

If only I could find someone who was.

Hmmmm...

[crystalsky84]

It's too bad some of the commenters on here STILL DON"T GET IT! I understand what you are saying, but maybe that's because those of us who are saved have their eyes opened by God. Those who aren't, are still in blindness.

[bigjared420]

Eyes opened by God = All critical thinking skills have been abandoned.

[crystalsky84]

I'd rather have all my "critical thinking skills" abandoned if it means God has opened my eyes. I know you STILL won't understand, but, God's ways are higher than ours. So, that means, your puny human "critical thinking skills" mean nothing as far as true wisdom in the eyes of God. But, like I said, you still won't understand.

[Blogrich55]

This is a satanic lie from the very pit of hell! Jesus is the light that lights every man who comes into the world according you John 1:9 THAT is talking about the critical thinking skills God has given man. This ability to reason is the image of God. Animals can't reason or ponder. They cannot sin. We cannot believe what we don't understand.

Man's thinking is warped by the fall. No doubt about this. But Jesus does NOT want us to check our brains in the trash and have mindless zeal either!

[joeprogo]

great vid!

[Doitblue]

Love this group!! God bless you, guys!!

[skevosmavros]

I honestly just can't tell - is this a satire of certain kinds of christianity? Or is it genuine?

Of course the guy in the video ignores the warnings - they are false! No fire! The guy doing the warning has a track record of lying about the house being on fire, so it's only natural that the guy ignores the warnings.

If the day ever comes that the warning is true, if the guy still ignores it, it will be the warner's fault for lying about it so often.

[Doitblue]

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard....

[skevosmavros]

Doitblue said:

-- That's? the stupidest thing I've ever heard....

Okay. How so? My observations are correct - the house is not on fire yet one guy issues warnings that it is. The other guy ignores the warnings, even while professing to believe them.

Sounds like a LOT of people's attitude to warnings of "end times" or warnings of being "hell bound".

The video is SO weak I genuinely can't tell if it is satirising christians or not.

[icartoon2]

"skevosmavros" I'm sure you attend movies and watch television with that same skepticism, right? Otherwise, you're hypocrite ie. a hyper critic.

Truth is, you're being obstinate just for the sake of being obstinate.

[skevosmavros]

Actually, yes, I DO attend movies and watch TV with the same skepticism.

And since you also were unable to point out any flaw or stupidity in what I said, then I guess I'm right.

I'm honestly beginning to think this video and others like it are an elaborate hoax - a prank being played against christians to see if they will swallow anything if it is said by someone that seems to be "on their side".

Since I'm commenting on the video, I guess that makes ME a victim of the prank too! :-)

[Darverses]

....Can't you just use your imagination to pretend that there's a fire going on?

The video is talking about the ignorance of people not wanting to do something they should because it's more convenient not to.

[Boxcutter7]

You can't be ignorant about an invisible placebo god that has no relevance in the modern world. If there was evidence for a god, it would be more convenient for me to accept him & even try to love him despite the horrific infanticide & mass homicide he's committed & condoned in the bible. Reading the bible with critical thinking skills will allow you to see many fallacies, such as light being made before sun & stars; earth being made before sun & stars.

[Darverses]

You sound really ignorant yourself with there being no evidence for God, let alone pretending like you know everything and how the Earth was formed.

Admit it, you DON'T know what happened that long ago and don't pretend like dead bodies in the dirt prove a life-creating random explosion of nothingness that somehow created everything from nothing.

[Boxcutter7]

I was pointing out what Genesis chapter 1 says about how light came before the earth and the earth came before the sun & stars. I make no claims about how the universe came to be, how the big bang happened [if it happened], how the explosion formed other objects, etc. I'm not just going to say "god did it", just because I don't know, especially when the biblical account of creation is massively flawed.

[Boxcutter7]

Oh and I forgot to point out how the bible says that the first man was created from sand and the first woman from that man's rib!

[StaIIIone]

Nice vid :D !! Keep it up bro :) C2C4C !

[tommiatkins]

Fanatacism? Check! Misplaced self-rightiousness? Check! Unthinking Blindness? Check! Stupid T shirt? Check!

Yup! Its a Theist!

[SERVANTofYHVH]

A lovely Parable. May God bless you & keep you brother. Amen!

[thenowinstitute]

AMEN, Daniel!! Great message on God's Grace and the Salvation He offers us!!

[bombsawaydrums]

DAN! I hope all is well and you arent getting to cold or getting rained on or anything that may make walking not so fun. Anyway... that video was a good time and im glad that I could be a part of a great message. Keep in touch and God Bless You. -Mark

[heavenshotline]

Great message bro. God Bless ya

[tries2getitright]

I'm confused...is God's way on my left or my right because I was like he's pointing to his right BUT does he mean my right or my left because you know when your facing someone..... Nah I'm just kidding, you're right, you have to follow Jesus' way to be saved.

[theTRUTHgroup]

God's way is on YOUR right. ;)

[David578593]

amen brother

[1nemind]

Great video brother.

[simple475]

yes awesome!

when we repent from our unbelief/non-faith/dead works to belief in the gospel 1 Cor 15:1-4, we become literally born again as an adopted child of God.

awesome video

[drybomber5]

Lol thesstop playing in the toilet funny.

Eternal life is not earned, it is a gift! Nobody deserves eternal life. The fact is, we all deserve hell. But because God loves us, we don't have to go to hell. God died for us to *save* us from hell. Follow Gods way! Not your way.

[drybomber5]

Great video!

[BriSTEAMZ]

Not first comment but first view

[theTRUTHgroup]

I'm not sure if that even makes sense.
