 Five Christians get together to see if they agree and one Christian myself reacts to that video Hey guys, what's up? My name is Isaac and this is the daily disciple where I help you follow Jesus daily first off I just want to give a huge shout out to my patrons on patreon. Hey, thank you so much you guys Those of you who support me on patreon. It means so much to me And it keeps this ministry going honestly So if you want to help support Me on patreon if you're not already doing that you can head on over to patreon.com slash daily underscore disciple Thanks so much guys. So as I teased in the intro today, I'm gonna be reacting to another video I'm really enjoying this kind of format. I think you guys based on the comments I've been getting are enjoying this kind of style of video too So I'm definitely gonna be doing more of these suggest down below Videos that you want me to react and respond to but today I'm gonna be responding to another jubilee video and this is a video called do all Christians think the same now Initially when I was you know about to watch this video I was like, okay, you know, are they gonna talk about pedo baptism and eschatology Or Calvinism and Arminianism, but at the same time I was like, ah, they probably don't go that deep Turns out I'm right, but we're gonna watch the video together and find out some Christian music is good and some of it is Lame but that's the same with like any kind of any genre music is the same way I have to be like in a certain setting or certain mind states to listen to it I kind of agree that some is good and some is bad, but I kind of feel like 60 to 70 percent of it is not good Or like exciting, but maybe I'm kind of traumatized because I could only listen to Christian music when I was a kid Okay, so in this first part they're talking about Christian music and I have a very strong opinion about this Okay, so I was raised in a homeschooling family. So I was homeschooled from well We say from birth to you know, 18 or whatever and so I was homeschooled. We only really listen to Christian music I only listen to Christian music pretty much until I was like 16 so we and I was kind of showed secular music to me at 16 I'm like, oh wow, this is so much better than Christian music So I kind of swayed the other way into totally kind of hating on Christian music to an extent Really liking secular music. I have to say I kind of still have that same perspective that you know To a large degree a lot of Christian music can sound very trite And it's just the way they a lot of Christian music deals with tough topics They'll go from very like sad and you know, oh man like life is tough and then all of a sudden Oh my goodness life is awesome now and we can all party it feels very disingenuous and fake and That's just the way I feel and maybe you disagree But there are a lot of Christian artists that I do like and I actually have a list here So then I will tell you them now. Okay, so Josh Groel's Fantastic for King country very good need to breathe went to their concert last year. So good The Greyhavens underrated small artists, but they're so good And of course who can forget about Kanye West. I Mean, I'm gay. I'm from like a little town in Texas. It's difficult to not question your faith because you're told that Gay people can't be Christians or Christians can only follow these certain Rules that are set out So for me when I started to grow and to get a relationship With Christianity myself is whenever my faith became stronger, but it was definitely difficult and I'm still really going through that right now There were things that I Felt like I was born knowing that God loved me and that God was good And then when I came into the church a little bit later, there were some beliefs Because I'm queer so That people were just like this is what it is and you can't be this and like this is not But the reason I'm in this line is because I never Felt that from God. I still felt like he loves me. Okay. We're really getting into it now Okay, I knew this was gonna get interesting. This is why I picked this video to react to Okay, so have I ever doubted my beliefs just answering personally for myself? Yes, of course I think you're you'd be hard-pressed to come across a Christian that hasn't Questioned what they believe because that's just the nature of being human. We want to know wait What if I'm wrong about this? Hey, what if what if all this isn't true and you have those moments even as a Christian where you're like Wait a minute. What if what if they're right? What if life is meaningless? What if we just die and it's over all these kind of questions, right? but ultimately we know and I myself have had to come to this realization that even when I have doubts that's okay, and That I could still be a Christian even though I have doubts Christian isn't somebody who who has no doubts But it's it's one that follows Christ despite their doubts insecurities and fears Because we've been given that grace by God for him to accept us by by his grace, right? and so now we can follow him and Doesn't mean there's not things that keep us back and there's not things that we question but ultimately We can put our faith in God and know that even if there's things we don't understand He is things under control the interesting thing for these two people here Is that they've almost questioned their beliefs? Because they disagree with something that's in the Bible that the Christianity has taught for for you know centuries the fact that you know marriages between a one man and one woman and and so this this is this is not congruent with how they see themselves or their identity so they've they've doubted but ultimately the solution to that is to create an idol One a God who who doesn't really care about that who doesn't care about you know how you know Sexuality or he just kind of wants you be you type type of God that they've created for themselves You know do all Christians think the same? No, not all Christians think the same, but we need to understand what does that actually mean to be a Christian? It means to you know cast off the flesh and put on Christ I was dead dead dead to sin and alive to Christ and we can only do that by God's grace But it seems like these people are creating an idol So they don't have to doubt an idol So then they are can be accepted for who they want to be as opposed to who God created them to be But we'll get into that a little bit more later When we mentioned support it means to accept and I don't accept the lifestyles within the community But do I love them? Do I want the best for them? I absolutely do Do I think that we should be mean to them in church? Do I think that we should shun them from church? No And I'm sorry that you guys had that experience because that is awful. That is horrible No one should go to a church and feel like you need to run away from it This lady's out here speaking some truth You know, it's amazing to me in the boldness of this lady because this would be a scary situation to be in at least for me You think about it. Okay, you have you know these two people that you know one identifies as queer and one If not already has identified will identify as as gay later in the video But you have these two people that believe very differently from you and have lifestyles that are very opposed to what you believe in And you're forced to in this video pick a side literally and so I appreciate the boldness of this lady but also just the compassion because It can be easy sometimes for some people depending on your personality to become very Bombastic and very just antagonistic maybe even say some insensitive things just because We feel that license just because yeah, God says it's wrong You know now we can you know go full force at these people and not be compassionate But I think it's awesome that she can speak the truth and so much the love. It's an example for us And just saying hey look, I don't necessarily accept the way you're living your life in terms of that Identity that you believe you're born with But I love you and I want the best for you and I want to continue to point you to what I believe is The best for you and it is following God and how he has created you It's interesting though because the thing that has hurt me the most is actually the language with which you're speaking Which is more confusing? I think no one actually shunned me It was more like this more like I love you But like God kind of wants to like send you to hell Wow, okay, that's that that takes a little bit to process there I think this is why it's so important to have these kind of conversations because you develop a lot more clarity You know we we might think at the beginning with this other lady the Christian lady who was saying hey look I don't know who you know if you were shunned from the church or anything like that And it turns out actually they weren't she wasn't shunned she wasn't shunned But actually she she felt like they were saying that you know God didn't accept her as she was and I think this is an important distinction here. Um, you know people will say Look, we need to we need to change or there'll be a lot of confusing terminology So let me just lay it up here for you So we go to God as we are right we go to God as we are we don't have the power to change in and of ourselves so Jesus is asking everyone come to me come to me. Okay, so whoever you are whatever you gay you're straight whatever come to me, okay? But God doesn't want us to stay there, right? God doesn't want us to stay there He wants to transform us by the power of his Holy Spirit, right? And so he's going to make us dead to the flesh so that which we had a tendency for sin Before we came to Christ he wants us to put away those things and he's gonna help us do that and he's gonna help us follow him and Transform and he's gonna help us transform in closer and closer to the image of himself But the thing is is when we you know when people have these identities so connected with their flesh So, you know, I am a I'm gay I'm a transgender on these things that are connected to the flesh and they come to God But they say hi, I don't want to let go of this because this is who I am That's when there's gonna become difficulty there. That's when there's gonna be some some challenging Challenging things that are gonna need to be said especially in terms of you know being in a church and Somebody living according to this lifestyle and you're gonna be like hey look God God accepts you as you are by his grace but he doesn't want to leave you there he doesn't want you living in this sin and People feel very offended by that because you're saying that their identity who they believe they are is Is wrong right and that is just a big crux of the issue is okay Should we put off the flesh right or should we continue to walk in the flesh? Well still saying yeah, I like Jesus, you know, are we gonna walk into this transformation? Or we're gonna hold on to the flesh these things that we want in our hearts our old identity Are we gonna step into this new creation? If you're gonna disagree with it You also have to understand like the weight of what you are asking a queer person to do when you look at someone And you feel like they're attractive and you have to disagree with that part of yourself every second of the day You have to tell yourself. That's freaking wrong. That's freaking wrong at like every second You don't think that I should I should not marry a woman that I love. I'm not saying you should be alone I'm saying at the basis of anything. I want you to be who God created you to be I find it very interesting though the words she chooses to use here You need to understand the weight of what you're asking A queer person to do the weight of it, right? You're asking them to put off this identity that they have who they believe they are right And you're asking them to say no, this is wrong. This is wrong. This is wrong It brings me back to the scriptures actually and what Jesus actually calls all of us to do and is to put off The old self and follow him is to pick up our cross and follow him The weight of that is Gynormous because we're leaving behind everything that we knew as Christians that's what it means to be a Christian it means to Leave what you knew and follow Christ into something new into his newness of life, right? And so the weight of that is enormous it is Enormous and if we're just on our own doing, you know If we're just up to us to leave that on our own then we would be that would be very very heavy But thankfully God is sovereign over all of his creation And he gives us the grace to follow him and into that weighty weighty Calling and that mission. There's so much here. I'm gonna do a part two So come back later this week, I think actually and we're gonna do a part two to this video There's so much more interesting stuff.
