About Me:
 
Hello, I have started making these videos out of a strong personal conviction. I have many family members that are Jehovah's Witnesses and the New World Translation and Watchtower publications were presented to me also the Book of Mormon was as well when I first accepted Christ, it is still amazing to me that at one point in my life three gospels were presented to me at the same time making for a very difficult search for the truth. Its funny in life that when you have the most questions and are most hard pressed for the answers they are hardest to find. In time God was faithful and slowly, patiently revealed to me what I needed, I didn't deserve even knowing him yet he kindly carried me through the darkness and confusion. Many moons have passed since then and now God has provided me with knowledge in many areas of apologetics. Dr. Walter Martin and his continued ministry through his daughter is invaluable, also David A. Reed author and president of Gospel Truth Ministries, Inc., Ravi Zacharias and countless others have been such a rich source for learning about and understanding the many gospels that exist today and the many arguments against the truth. The struggle that I endured at the beginning of my faith was the seed of a passion for understanding what I believe and being able to defend it - Jude (1:3) Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints. IPeter (3:15) but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence; 2Timothy (2:15) Study to show yourself approved to God, a workman that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. The existence of a lie is evidence of truth because there can be no lie without truth and truth is not just words spoken, written or believed on but a living person. Today more people see truth as an enemy to freedom, intelligence and politics, nothing is further from being true. It is true that the truth has narrowness but it also has freedom, the belief in relative truth is circular reasoning, it is self defeating. The belief that truth is relative leaves an individual without the ability to determine truth. The very statement that truth is relative destroys itself because that very statement is then relative meaning that it is not absolutely true and that truth is absolute. We need truth it gives us freedom, these freedoms that it gives are what I want to share. An example of the narrowness and freedom of the truth is dialing a phone number, it is narrow in that only one specific sequence of numbers can gain access to whom one is trying to reach and gives freedom from the myriad possibilities of wrong sequences. Also the exclusivity of the Bible is found to be offensive since Jesus is the only way but what people fail to see is that he is the door and the door is open to everyone, this isn't a club with requirements that only some can meet, it is an invitation to all but all must come through the door. America is a nation of tolerance which means it is founded on absolute unbending truth with respect and regard for ideas and beliefs, not what the majority of society defines tolerance as. In mentioning tolerance I use America as an example of what it is but I am not nationalistic in what I am doing with these videos I am aiming at the entire human race. These are the links for those looking for the proof that the WTBTS was part of the U.N. for 10 years www.randytv.com/secret/unitednations.htm - www.watchtower.cc/united_nations.htm This is a site that has every Watchtower prophecy from the first in 1877 by N.H. Barbour and C.T. Russell to the most recent in 1995 when the 1914 generation was being changed in the AWAKE! http://www.bible.ca/Jw-Prop... For anyone who may wonder about how to read the Bible daily in a way that can speak to you this is my method though it may sound mechanical it is really organic, I take one word and survey it through the entire Bible. This often takes more than one or two days so it will be something to interest you and hold your attention for more than one day and can be extremely revealing.

I was taken aback by your gentleman's response to my post in your page. Had I concocted my post in your page, I would have to apologize but since these verses are right from your Bible, it is improper for me to say sorry - if your god did not see it as something to be ashamed of, why should you? You are one of the Christians mentioned in our Noble Quran - "you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers those who say, 'We are Christians.'" (Surah 5:82). Muslims aren't Muslims if they don't believe in Jesus peace be upon him as one of the mightiest messengers of God. Jews vilify him and his mother Maryam (Mary). But we respect him. His name is mentioned in our Holy Book 25 times more than our Prophet's (pbuh). His mother Maryam (Mary) has a chapter in the Noble Quran entiled "Surah Maryam". We differ only on his divinity. Can we discuss this in BeholderGuard, if you don't mind?

Believe it or not there was peace between Islams and Christians in southern Europe. Scharlemagne prevented Islamic invasion any further North but at the time Europe was illiterate save the monks due to the Bubonic plauge decimating more than half of Europe's population leaving those who remained to survive in low population. In Spain though education between Islamics and Christians flurished with Latin becoming the medium throuugh which communication and records were made.

friendofutube2009, the first thing you do is make attacks on historical records in Scripture. With such an attack it is hard to believe that you are a true Muslim. I find much beauty in Islam, the deep recognition in the details, the common place and the extraordinary. Though I find beauty in it I cannot consent to it not because I make derogatory remarks about it but because it denounces the Christian faith without properly defining it to begin with. Jesus is the crux of the issue my friend not what you are siting. Christianity is sourced in a mass historical revelation in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, this is the foundation of Christianity. Feel free to attempt to deny it, many have only to accept Christ finding the evidence testifying to his resurrection.

Christianity is the true incest and pornographic religion with its Biblical Penhouse Playboy:

- "She lusted after lovers with genitals as large as a donkey's and emissions like those of a horse." (Ezekiel 23:20 NLT)

- "..the older daughter went in and had intercourse with her father..the older daughter said to her younger sister, "I had sex with our father last night. Let's get him drunk with wine again tonight, and you go in and have sex with him." (Gen 19:33-34)

- "Samson went to Gaza, and there he saw a prostitute, and he went in to her." (Judges 16:1)

We must put away lifeless religion and seek Jesus with all that is within us. His sheep hear His voice and obey. Keep going for Jesus and never give up! :) BLESSINGS!

clearedtoengage, I am so grateful for your compassion and deep concern for me. I am sorry though that I cannot take your baptism which salvation requires, my baptism isn't required for salvation. Faith and faith alone which the faith to beleive the message of the cross isn't even from ourselves is the key to salvation prior to baptism not following it. You can be unsaved and baptized, you can also be saved and not baptized. My friend I will strive with you to see the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Epidome, Jesus' gospel certainly has been under attack.. people did not want to obey Him (Mt. 7:21). Will you make the same mistake the Jews made and crucify Him by not doing what He said was necessary before salvation?
