he really had to use a lot of words to explain progressive christianity....well, the word of God never changes because GOD never changes in any way shape or form. To say you can evolve on christianity because it's what Jesus did? What??? I'm praying for you all. You are making an all powerful God into what you want him to be so as to suit your lifestyle and what makes you feel good. We have to humble ourselves before God, HE makes the rules, we don't!!!

@Mr88playmaker Incidently, 'revolutionary' is not a Marxist term - you'd have to have an unusual understanding of world history to think that George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and William Wallace were influenced by 19th Century philosophers!

@Mr88playmaker Have you read the Bible? If a biblical Jesus existed, he was one of the most liberal people ever! "Thou shall not kill", "Love your enemies", "do not judge" and "blessed are the merciful" are but a handful of quotations that indicate Jesus wasn't as right-wing as you imply he was. If God is not an unchanging, progressive figure, does that mean ALL Christians must follow Jewish laws and customs as told in the OT? I hope you're not wearing mixed fabrics, you dirty little sinner!

Right at 8:38 the atheist in the red shirt calls Jesus a "revolutionary."

Revolutionary is a Marxist term we are hearing a lot of these days.

Folks, Jesus is a CONSERVATIVE. He is the quintessential ULTRA- Conservative of all time. According to the Bible, there is no one more conservative than God. God is NOT a progressive; God does NOT change; Jesus specifies that he did NOT come to destroy the LAW or reinterpret it. These people reject the cross and the laws of God. They blaspheme Christ.

[Mr88playmaker]

These people are messing with dangerous forces they should not mess with.

[Mr88playmaker]

The people in this video have no idea what they are doing. They treat Christianity as if they were discussing politics or something; as if they could persuade someone to swallow their atheist agenda.

These atheists don't get it. Every Christian has the Holy Spirit, and you can not lie to the Holy Spirit. These people THINK that the subject of Christ & Christianity is like any other subject, and have no idea how openly satanic their message is. They're outsiders posing only for outsiders.

[Mr88playmaker]

There is no such thing as "progressive Christianity."

[Mr88playmaker]

There are 3 forms of government competing for world dominance:

1. Secular /Atheist / Communist model where HUMAN rulers decide your "rights & freedoms" with NO guarantee because what man gives man can take away. Our founders call this "TYRANNY of men."

2. Sharia: The Qu'ron is your constitution and HUMANS rule over you.

3. Judeo-Christian (USA) model: GOD is our sole granter of rights & liberties, power comes from GOD to us individually, we are sovereign and the government is our servant.

“Communism begins from the outset with atheism.”

--Karl Marx (the father of communism)

"World dictatorship can be established only when the victory of Socialism has been achieved in certain countries or groups of countries … [and] when these federation of republics have finally grown into a world union of Soviet Socialist Republics uniting the whole of mankind under the hegemony of the international proletariat organized as a state."

--Josef Stalin (Communist dictator)
