 Man y'all gonna laugh at me the internet's gonna laugh at me, but bro Jesus came into my mind Did Logan Paul just look to Jesus to find forgiveness? This is really interesting over the last few months There has been a big dramatic build-up to a fight between Logan Paul and Dylan Danis There's been names insults and accusations thrown back both ways But what caught people's attention was Dylan Danis's Unrelenting attacks on Logan Paul's fiancee. How could any person Watch what he did to the person you love most in the world and be okay with it and not want to actually For this human being the fight happened over the weekend and Logan ended up being victorious But the very next day Logan dropped a podcast and in it he talks about what he believes was the key to his victory This is really interesting Be sure to stay tuned to the last clip where Logan shares his gripes about Christianity I do think it's a shame that the scripture says homosexuality is a sin Do you think it's a shame that the scripture says worshiping any other deity than Jesus is a sin? I don't agree with that In the beginning of the fight you said I forgive you Dylan that it was hard But did you mean that did you actually like Mentally tell yourself i'm gonna figure this guy or you just can put on a show So the major challenge for me in this fight As we knew Was that this guy got under my skin? How could how could he not how could any person? Watch what he did to the person you love most in the world and be okay with it and not want to actually murder this human being But as I just described i'm not that type of athlete I'm not that type of person when I lead with aggression And i'm fighting with emotion. I'm not in my best state And when we did that face to face with the glass He's standing across from me And I learned That he roused me up He brings out that side of me that that goes Kill this guy and that what that's not good. Have you tried that though? I I tried but then I just looked stupid throwing wild punches and and and then I get then I get caught I'd get caught with something and I you know He gets that knock out that the world was waiting for and it didn't happen Like I just this story was not meant to be written that way me and Nina sat right right over there We had a meditation and in this meditation i'm sitting here I go how how can I go into this as calm as possible and not want to Fight with the emotion And this word kept coming to my mind forgiveness forgiveness forgiveness and then I mean y'all gonna laugh at me The internet's gonna laugh at me but bro Jesus came into my mind Jesus is like The the the man who is master forgiveness the power of forgiveness a whole religion was built on the Power of forgiveness like that a lot of followers He has because of this one principle that if you can grasp it and it's hard at the grass You know how hard it was for me to go I forgive you bro I forgive you for making my life hell. I forgive you for hurting the person I love most in this world for months on ended when she's done nothing to you But I knew that if I could do it and I knew that if I meant that I actually forgave him I could enter this fight with a calm mind and just box Okay, a couple quick thoughts here is jesus the spokesman of forgiveness and he's the greatest example of forgiveness Absolutely, but it's not just because jesus was this nice guy walking around the middle east 2000 years ago saying i forgive you I forgive you i forgive you know his greatest example of forgiveness was that on the cross That's the picture that is the gospel the good news that we are forgiven for our sin Not because god was just like okay, you can get off scott free go go about your business But because he sacrificed himself in our place So I don't want logan to just you know look to jesus because he's a forgiving nice guy I want him to see this ultimate example of the gospel of forgiveness I see logan looking to god very pragmatically right, so he's looking at god god Give me some of your stuff. Give me some of your peace. Give me some of your forgiveness Give me some of your joy. Give me some of your happiness Like he's looking to god to give him the gifts that he wants But he doesn't really truly want who god is now Maybe there's an element for logan and i've seen this from other Sports stars and things like that where they'll look to god to give them a win Or like i'm gonna look to god and i'm gonna hope that he makes my dreams come true god Help me pass this test and i'll really believe in you help me win this boxing match And i'll really believe in you help me get this job and and i'll really really trust you and i'll know that You're there and i'll never forget that now maybe you think that request isn't that big a deal But then you look in the bible and see what jesus was saying to the people that we're seeking a sign An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign But no sign will be given to it except the sign of jonah now stick with me guys What is the sign of jonah jonah was in the big fish for three days and then he came out This is a picture of jesus in the grave for three days rising again on the third day And so what is the picture? What is the sign that he is going to give these people? It's going to be of his resurrection It's the gospel and that's a sign that he gives us today. He says okay Stop looking for all these signs everywhere else right stop looking for these signs everywhere else Because it's clear and it's simple. I've shown it to you I've revealed myself to you on the cross and in my resurrection proving to you that i am the messiah That i am god so logan doesn't need additional signs or to win a boxing match And i don't need to get that job or get that extra bonus in order to know that god is truly present No god has already revealed himself on the cross. He's revealed himself through his word He's revealed himself in the gospel the good news of the gospel that i can be forgiven and i can know him Now for some of you who have been following some of this controversy for a while You know, this isn't logan's first time dipping his toes in religion and christianity Actually at one point he really went after one of his former co-host george jenko About his christian faith and he was really angry about it And he said you know you all bunch of homophobes and bigots and you believe bigoted things And people were not happy about that even non christians thought that he really went overboard And so logan came back with this apology But in this apology he explained some of the things that he still has a problem with christianity So let's watch and then we'll see what the bible has to say about it from the bottom of my heart I'm sorry I appreciate that my attitude towards you On that episode and my belittlement of your beliefs was not appropriate at all and not as a podcast host Especially not as a friend every christian i know pretty much Is incredibly warm loving accepting and forgiving including my devout mother and I also recognize that it's a source of so much hope And purpose for people and it was wrong to be dismissive of that. I do think it's a shame that the scripture Says homosexuality is a sin I don't agree with that. Yes. I do think it's a shame that the scripture says worshiping any other deity than jesus is a sin I don't agree with that. As you know, I also Don't believe it's an incredibly progressive practice to deny scientific evidence and evolution In favor of creationism and I have a right to believe what I believe Which again as you know is in a god Like a higher power universal energy creator whatever you want to call it and and and while the god that I believe in Might not be the same as yours or mikes or anyone in this room The point is we all believe something and no matter how much conviction As individuals we have that our truth is the truth at the end of the day nobody knows So logan has some pretty clear gripes about christianity and i'm not here to say that he's misunderstanding the bible i'm not here to say that oh no actually homosexuality isn't a sin or jesus isn't the only way because he is And while some hold to an old earth perspective I don't believe that's biblical if you read the scripture as it's laid out if you understand adam and eve and their Significance as a real human beings when they were alive in that connection to jesus and I believe yeah It was six days So i'm not going to argue with him on that but what I see going on and this is not uncommon with other celebrities Is an editable bible is to somebody to say I really like jesus and what he stands for He is loving and he is gracious and he is amazing and he is wonderful and forgiving But I don't like the rest of the bible I really don't like that But the truth is you can't separate jesus from the rest of the bible You can't separate the god of the new testament from the god of the old testament in the scripture It says that he is the same yesterday today and forever in the first clip logan talked about how he looked to jesus To find this forgiveness for this person who had really done him wrong and done his fiance wrong in a real way But what you need to understand is that you can't really understand forgiveness unless you understand sin Right because if there's nothing if there's no sin, then there's nothing to forgive And we just don't like god's definition of sin see logan is easy It's easy for logan to look at this the londanas guy and say like this guy has sin This guy has hurt me he's hurt my fiance this is wrong But when he looks at other aspects of the bible and what the bible calls in He has a problem with god's Standard this comes down to the fact that we believe that our morality our wisdom our knowledge our beliefs our Resting they're all higher than gods. This is what first corinthian says and this has direct application here So pay attention for the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing but to us who are being saved It is the power of god for it is written I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart people that are perishing have yet to have their eyes open and they see the cross as folly It doesn't make sense to them and they see god's ways and his wisdom and his morality They see it as dumb hone into this next part in first corinthians with me But god shows what is foolish in the sight of the world to bring shame to the wise God shows what is weak in the world to shame the strong Here's the big picture point. We need to humble ourselves before god We need to stop looking to him just to get his stuff and recognize what he has done on our behalf on the cross Believing in a god is not enough believing that jesus was a cool guy is not enough Today god is calling all of us to repent of our sin and put our faith in jesus as lord and savior That's my prayer for logan He has been back and forth and back and forth on his perspective of christianity But I pray that god would continue to work on his heart and soften his heart and show him That he's not the ultimate authority here that he needs to submit himself to god Thank you for watching this video if you enjoyed it and enjoy this content in general subscribe because i'm putting out new videos all the time I want to give a huge shout out to my other youtube channel man on mission.
