    Dear Joseph, blessings to you . I dont prétend to know everything but i do know this , in all my years of studying and trying to pull apart and analogized faith , God, supernatural events and etc. I've realized this, for me it was this, I had an encounter with the Lord and with over in time the word of God i allow it to transform me . I think we try to figure God out we never will because in my humble opinion, he is too great and infinite. Now as i say in my humble opinion. I believe The Lord is something one must have a divine experience with God and his holy Spirit because weather , its me or aomeone else tells you anything of the bible or maybe even supernatural things , it will sound foreign to your ear. To know God is to believe he exists and to know Jesus is to know the Lord. But if anyone is not open that their is a God and they do exist this will sound strange to you. No one can put faith under a microscope you will goad trying to make logical understanding out of faith, because it is may ne simple for some and hard for others just to believe.

    I'm not worried about this guy being a believer or not I am unfortunately surprised that some believers aren't being more compassionate on the fact someone either lost their faith or just never really believed in the faith , would treat our brothers and sisters that way. I'm like dang in my view it's like Please Lord don't come back obliviously we aren't ready yet. Smh I'm just like if you really love and care for someone you don't force anything on anyone ever that is not dwelling in the Love of Christ.

Not every woman (regardless whether they in their 20s or 30s) gonna wear crop tops, short dresses, nor skirts etc. To look good, plus, also, I'm agree with her that you can always change clothes, so I don't think it's not that deep, just because they don't fit what your ideal what a lady (or guy) look like because not everyone is monolithic though. Lastly but not least: this is how a woman should dress like, lowkey.

    How can one have morals without a belief in God? Morality is the careful consideration of the rights and consequences of one's own actions and the rights of others involved. Although many persons might believe in a God, their doctrines and morals do differ. For example, some things that are considered a sin in Islam are quite all right in Christianity. Some things that were not suitable in the Old Testament are now acceptable in the New Testament. Do you not see the evolution of morality unfolding and becoming better as time goes by? So where is this universal standard or religious world view of morality? It does not exist, never did. Even if l think that God dictates morality, the question then begs, "Which God am l speaking of, and what time in history am l living?". Therefore l say that morality is the careful consideration of the rights and consequences of one's own actions and the rights of others involved. I don't need to have a God consciousness to achieve respect for others. I only need to care! Assume nothing, question all things, but most of all learn to think critically, for this is the most noble thing that one can do for one's own self.

    I understand why many of us feel the way you do. I would agree that many of us desire to bring culture into our Christian experiences, and we often desire to make others conform to our culture. It is sad that this is brought into the family of God. Many forget passages in the Bible that speaks against this behavior. It's not about being black or white or anything else. The early church being originally filled by Jews often attempted tried to make nonjews change or abandon their culture. It was decided that this wasn't necessary. They only had to give up those things that were considered uncleaned or sinful according to the revealed word. Today we often teach religious ideas and often forget the core teaches of Jesus and His disciples. We are more concerned with music styles, preaching styles, and the like than what the core doctrines teach. Christianity is about how you were called out of the world systems and brought into the Kingdom of God. It is about learning to live a life that is guided not by what people say but your King. It is how you learn to love your neighbors and your God with everything you are. It is about how you consider not your own thoughts or feelings as supreme wisdom but you learn to align them to what is taught in Scripture. Unfortunately in today's world many look st their faith as personal buy truly it is never really about you. God desires we learn not to be so selfish or self-centered. Jesus's Kingdom begins with denying oneself and following the way of selflessness. It is about community and spreading the truth of who Jesus is and what we were created for. Be blessed, and may God watch over you and everyone else who is struggling with their faith

    The New Testament makes bold and extraordinary assertions that both Jesus and the Apostle Paul claimed that the scriptures (the Old Testament) spoke of Jesus dying for our sins, being buried, and rising on the third day. Now these prophecies should be easy to find if indeed Moses and all the other prophets actually did write of them. So, would you kindly show me where these prophecies are of this dying messiah that l too might know of their existence in the scriptures. 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Luke 24:25-27 & 44-46 25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? 27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. 44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. 45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, 46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

    All in all... our salvation is not defined by us but God Jesus Himself. As He says in John 15 We didn't chose Him, He chose us. As He says in Isaiah 45 That He is God and there is no other but Him, that His word will not go back to Him void, that as all of the living will confess and bow down crying JESUS CHRIST IS LORD. And finally, as Alpha Omega... He will accomplish what He started in you. He is faithful when we are faithless. So, I understand your perspective. May the Lord Jesus, have mercy on all of us and may He really appear to you, freshly, and may He really restore the years the locust had been eating! May you find favour in His eyes... Lord may Joseph experience You. Amen

    I'm sorry. I've had the same on comments on my vids. Really insulting. Like we are so stupid we never even knew we weren't really christians. Unbelievably condenscending. God or Magic Elf forbid someone could do a lot of research when most of them have done none, agonized about the matter, lay awake in the small hours of the morning giving Yeshua a chance to reveal himself because we really didn't want to leave the faith. That couldn't have happened. No way realizing some of the prophecies were mistranslated, the rest are so vague they could pertain to anyone, there is no witness of a resurrected Yeshua at the time it happened from someone who was there. Never mind the secular sources actually don't prove a resurrection--they just prove the man existed. Never mind the miracles were taken from pagan tradition. Never mind any of that. We just weren't really christians to begin with. Golly, I never saw it----cheers, DCF

    15:12 "I don't think that we're equipped historically or rationally"...I assume you were going to say "to establish a miracle"? "the fact that the resurrection is so unreasonable is what makes it sorta anti-historical" This line of reasoning is unfortunately the place that modern critical scholarship (including Ehrman's work) is in. So influenced by Hume's "Of Miracles", which tries to prove that miracle claims can never be believed in rationally. A deep dive into this reasoning shows it to be absolutely fallacious. Dr. Tim and Lydia McGrew have an essay that addresses this and applies Baysian probability to studying the likelihood of the resurrection. It's called "The Argument from Miracles". Check it out if you'd like.

      i think you’re misunderstanding my point or i’m not doing well to clarify. it’s not simply that miracles can’t be believed in historically or scientifically. it’s that if a miracle is something that is SUPERnatural, then by definition, it is the least likely natural explanation (truly not a natural explanation at all) and cannot be captured by natural methods like historical criticism or the scientific method. if miracles could be explained by natural methods, then by sheer definition, it is not a miracle. this is not to say miracles are impossible. i don’t believe miracles are impossible.

    Maybe reason sports 🏀 can be good, is because even though it’s people operating doing a weird task…. It’s causing them to navigate about eachother in a way that connects people, but shows what’s inside them. Also like in a movie if someone was born into a fictitious simulation, it could still show what’s truly inside them. Like a test. Sports prolly aren’t completely irrelevant or outaaatheree though, if the purpose is to propel GOD’s principles forward… like love and stuff. In an unwicked way. But yea bonding for a goal that’s conducive in an assigned purpose/calling they may have. Like family bonding. Peace making. Fueling. Etc. ((I’m seeking myself. And the councils of blahblah don’t determine which doctrine is true. But yeah. I do know the true JESUS is Fr. And I’m watching to help propel me off in ma studying.))

    Originally, I wasn't going to comment anything because I prefer to listen than voice my opinion all the time, BUT...The view that you cannot escape subjectivity is just a bad take. Sure, things can be subjective, but it doesn't change the objectiveness of something. For example, if two people are viewing an animal, but one says it looks like a bunny and the other says it looks like a rat, what the animal is will always be objective despite what someone views. The objectivity of the word will always be objective despite interpretation because despite how someone may view something there is an intended meaning. The point of studying the word is to find that intended meaning. The intended meaning will never change and will always be objective despite people getting that wrong.

      ⁠@@flightsfeelingsthank you for your thoughts. I understand that a lot of Christians would have that response, but the same way we use science to accurately determine something and the same way we study history to accurately determine something is the same way we can determine whether the Bible is true or not. Leaving out spirituality, questions the world need answers to will always remain the same regardless of what someone views it as. Did Jesus exist? Y/N. Can we reliably determine what Jesus said is true based on eye witness, based on historical documents, based on logic (meaning does it contradict reality), etc? Y/N? Based on studying (reading literature, looking at the facts) what can we determine. The objectivity will be the answer and how we got the answer can lead us to objectivity. If our conclusion is correct, our answer is objectively correct. If we are wrong, our answer is objectively incorrect. Interpretation may be based off perspective, but I t is not limited to subjectivity, for it can be made objective based on it’s accuracy.

      hey joshua! thanks for engaging and listening through. my perspective may sound like a bad take, because it was misunderstood, which led to a strawman argument on your end. this is possibly at the fault of me the speaker, not you the listener. so i’ll try to clarify. the discussion was not about if objective truth exist but if objective values exist, and to a secondary point, if objective routes to objective (metaphysical) truth exist. ive never believed or made the argument that objective truth does not exist. to the point of your example, whether or not the animal is a bunny or rat isn’t dependent on the observer, correct. (though in some overly reductionist sense that could be argued against too, but we are speaking plainly here.) in order for two people to come to the same conclusion about what the animal is, they’d have to agree on the categories and language, which is subjective. but more importantly to my point is that even if they could arrive at the categories in some objective way, this does not answer the questions: “what does this animal MEAN to me? what is the value of this animal? what should we DO about this animal?” christians in the “objective vs subjective” convo often conflate reality and morality, and this is what your argument is doing. this is a huge distinction. even a staunch materialist atheist would tell you “yes, i believe there are objective facts about the world that are independent of conscious minds observing them.” that’s not this discussion. my discussion with zeke was not if objective truth exists but if objective morality exists AND if our pathways/methods to discovering objective metaphysical reality objective? my point and belief is that objective morality and meaning do not exist. meaning is inherently subjective, and that’s not a bad thing. it’s just a thing. meaning is determined by what an individual or group of individuals hold most important. furthermore, the existence of objective metaphysical truth and access to/capacity for those truths are not the same thing. metaphysical objective truth can (and probably does) exist, and your method for determining what is metaphysical objective truth will always be subjective/existential. if i asked you “how do you know the bible is objectively true?” we’d first have to agree on that evens means then i could ask “what is the method to determine the intended meaning? how do you know that method gets you to the intended meaning? what do you mean you say “intended meaning? how do we understand that intended meaning today?” you would not be able to explain any of that without using words like “best, better, experience, holy spirit, should, more reliable, i think, most scholars say” etc. all subjective and existential language. OR some sort of inherently circular reasoning “the bible is true because god said it is true. i know god said it is true because the bible tells me so. i choose to believe the bible because god says should. i choose to believe god because the bible says i should.” this is what i mean when i say subjectivity is inescapable. again, im not saying this is a bad thing. it’s just a thing. an inescapable thing. its only a bad thing because christian’s make it a bad thing.

      sorry. didn’t think my earlier message went through. my second reply is a little more clear. bro your points are all over the place, like i was in this video lol. but i will try to rangle them in. again, my convo was not about whether or not objective truth exists. but to your point about history, history is not a natural science. how scientists and historians go about finding truth are extremely different and how theologians go about finding truth is different than the historian. and you’re pretending they all have same approach. but there’s a reason they are all disparate disciplines. historical criticism is about creating the most plausible narrative. narratives are riddled with potential subjectivity. science is not concerned about narratives. you cannot prove abraham lincoln existed the same way you prove 2+2= 4. one is repeatable, the other is not. one requires plausible narratives and the other requires a pencil and paper. you cannot prove jesus existed (and i believe that he did!) the same way you can prove atoms exist. one is repeatable and the other requires presenting evidences that point to what most likely happened based on our understanding of reality. so no these aren’t the same. and more importantly, historical criticism is not theology, which is even more subjective. by natural historical criticism based on plausible natural scientific outcomes, jesus could not have risen from the grave. it would take a shift in one’s philosophy to believe he rose and THEN a shift in one’s THEOLOGY that him rising MEANS something. and i’m not here to argue jesus didn’t rise. my point is to show the distinctions of categories and how differently they arrive at conclusions about reality with varying degrees of subjectivity. so no these don’t translate so easily. and this just further proves my point i make in the convo with ezekiel: when convenient, christians want to make faith on par with the scientific method, but they also acknowledge that faith is something entirely different when it suits them. they wish for it to exist in the rational parameters, when faith by definition must exist outside of it. but as the famous christian philosopher, kierkegaard says in this case they “sell faith at a bargain price”.

      @@flightsfeelingsthanks for clarifying your point. My aim wasn’t to dispute a strawman, but to prove that the conclusion someone holds can be objective. But I understand your perspective, though I disagree. I do agree with the idea that the scientific method and concluding something historical has occurred are different in terms of how they get to their conclusion, but the point I was trying to make was they had data to backup their conclusion. One can conclude the Bible is true based on data. But I doubt any argument I give will prove to you that not all Christian’s believe that it’s all just about faith. Some Christians (including me) believe your faith can be backed by evidence (as spoken in Hebrews). But I appreciate your willingness to accept pushback and to be reasonable. Def will be praying for you! Be blessed.

      but fam what determines historical criticism is subjective, even for the secular historian. no matter how reliable it is. it’s based on schools of thoughts, philosophical approaches, biases, and really really good and careful guesses. they use language like i suggested earlier “best, better, most scholars say, should,” etc. this is just really refined subjectivity. nothing like science. either e=Mc2 and always will or it doesn’t and never was. and the only thing that would prove it be wrong is repeatable and observable experiments. this is not subjectivity. and theology is a whole other subjective animal. explain to me the best way to determine the historicity or any of the historical claims of the gospels or interpret the moral implications without using subjective words like “should, better, best, most scholars say, holy spirit guides” etc. you’ll find it extremely difficult, and i’d bet impossible. i don’t believe all christians think it’s only all about faith with historical reasoning to back it up. that’s not what was being discussed. you don’t have to make argument for that because i already believe they exist lol. apologetics is anything but new to me. i get the premise. my point is that no matter your starting point, at some point you must move from the objective into the subjective, from the finite into the infinite. from the rational into the irrational, out of the propositional and into the existential. THAT is faith. that is what i mean when i say no amount of “evidences” will ever make someone believe. even according to the christian, no one will get to heaven because they acknowledged the right facts. i believe all serious christians who want to have conversations about objectivity vs subjectivity should read Fear and Trembling by the christian Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard. my thoughts on this are not a bad take. this is years of reading (even a hundred different apologists who have made your same argument in some form or another) and pondering on this with seriousness and important distinctions. the christian sees subjectivity and existentialism as a thing to avoid and i see it as christianity’s/religious experience’s greatest asset. its extremely western, and eastern orthodox folks don’t worry much about it. it seems very divorced from new testament thought as well (even the canonical NT but Thomas’ Gospel had no problem with it) idk why so many christians are so eager to waddle in materialism dressed in religious language.

    These have got to be the most ratchet & most used up broken down h03z I've seen so far. Not a single one of them are above a 5/10 and when they open their mouths they drop down to a 2/10.
