Modern-day Christians know Jesus so well, that this one decided to travel back in time to help Jesus get his message across right from the start. Those people back in Jesus' time might have mistaken Jesus' own words as actually representing what he really meant! And we wouldn't want that!

Let's see how modern interpretations stack up against the words as they are spoken.

This was made because the few videos I made just before this one (and a lot of my subsequent videos) dealt with the brutality of the old testament, and I was getting many comments telling me that christians DON'T follow the old testament, but that they follow the words and teachings of JESUS instead!
This video is my way of saying "No, you so obviously don't".


Rather than admit that you don't actually obey Jesus' instructions, perhaps instead you could leave a comment telling me that I am ignorant, and that I could never have been a Christian. Or, ignore the content of the video completely, and threaten eternal damnation to all God-hating atheists like me. Or why not use that old stand-by you always use when your religion is exposed as ludicrous: argue about evolution!



And yes, I know it's a bit too long. I chipped away at it for hours but this is as short as I could get it whilst still making all the points I wanted to.

  • Funny video, though even as an atheist if there was one person from history I'd like to meet it would be JC - if for no other reason than to find out who he really was and what he really believed.

  • Haha! I love how you find a great, simple, funny way to explain what a lot of us know but have difficulty expressing. Thanks for that, keep it up!

  • @j919or so u believe in the bible?

  • @11202" Pardon? No idea what you said"

    This was not the word of God but rather the common thinking of the day that Jesus stated to her.God didnt call the gentiles dogs,the Jews did.God wanted the jews to share the gospel with the gentiles. But Jesus spoke to individuals to get a response and then He responded to their response.

    The end result is that the woman trusted God and Jesus regardless of what people were saying about her.This is greatfaith in God,not faith in mans representation of God

  • @11202 "Christ told people to do are ignorable."

    Remember that the gospels were written in narrative form and so they are not directly spoken to us. Most people don't have a clue on the basic principles of interpretation. Now if Jesus says "whosoever..." that means it applies to everyone. Like He says whosoever believes in Him has eternal life, that applies to everyone.

  • @breendaystarz Topic change + lack of answer to a single point ( reduced from the entire video) + General Here read this and figure it out yourself + 3 comments later. I'm get to hear the single explaination.

  • @breendaystarz You can't use the Bible to validate the Bible. You get nowhere.

    You are still figuring out how life works. One day you will realise that reputation/authority alone is not enough to validate a claim. When you are talking about the Bible, you are talking about an authority which it gave itself.

    How much a person experiences is not the same as how much they learn. You can finish college in your teens and have little experience. You can drop out of school and experience the workforce.

  • @11202 Goodbye. For the record i had a lot more where that came from but it is not possible to write eveything here it would be to much, thank you for not threatening me that your going to kill my fam, and for not trying to act hard on YouTube, once again goodbye(:

  • @57worldwide I think im gonna end the conversation here this can be an ongoing conversation, it would be better to be a face to face. Read the book of Ecc. I think Solomon knows what life isnt about. Solomon had more experience then you thats for sure and it doesn't matter how old you are, and he never spoke bad about God, neither did Job. Goodbye and interesting conversation.(:

  • @breendaystarz Actually I haven't changed the topic at all, I've consistently asked you to explain to me 1 thing. I've changed the Criteria after you saying it was too much. Yet your point remains to be seen.

  • @breendaystarz The reason I brought up your age is due to experience (or, more accurately, inexperience). You are young and don't have much life experience. You are still figuring out how the world actually works.

    If you think that the Christian god exists, and allows the devil to interfere with his creation, then explain how that is good. That doesn't make sense to me.

  • @j919or LOL for me to question the words of God makes me an atheist? "demonstrate her faith that God was bigger than the common understanding which was that gentiles were dogs" <- Pardon? No idea what you said. All I recall from that section was that he himself called her a dog and said something like "It isn't right to take food away from children and feed it to dogs" not to realise that to acknowledge Demons is to acknowledge an Abrahamic religion anyhow.
