How To Talk To Unbelievers | A Christian Podcast
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 гру 2022
- In this episode, some of the fellas and I talk to my guy Maddux. At the time of this recording (7/4/22), Maddux is not a follower of Jesus. In this conversation, we all discuss religion and answer questions to try to gain some clarity on one another's views.
Highlights:
-This whole episode is a guide for how to talk to people of other religions/faiths.
-We discuss the reality of hell for unbelievers (those that don't put their faith in Jesus Christ).
-Perspective vs reality...What is truth?
-Why we can't understand God?
-What to do when we have questions that don't have answers.
-How is hell a fair punishment?
Join us in faith that our guy Maddux will be Saved🙏🏾

As a young adult in college who grew up in the faith as a pastors kid I found myself low today and typed in christian podcasts for young men. And i am in tears writing this because this episode softened my heart when I thought i lost that feeling. I see my friends in that kid and i see all the questions i had but God has revealed himself to me and when that kid sees God work in his life i pray he follows him 100% thank you for allowing God to work through all of you.
Wow🤧 Praise God! He's moving on your heart. Continue to embrace His presence and watch your life change. Thanks for watching and thank you for your encouragement🎈
this is beautiful i agree!
Bro! This was me yesterday.
Amén
im a teen girl trying to stregthen my walk with jesus christ and the lord and this is my first time listening to a christian podcast and i hope to listen to these all the time 🥰✝🙏
Praying God's blessings and protection over you🎈🙏🏾
Very nice to hear praise Yahweh 👑🕊️ SHALOM
Glad to see Jesus is on the youth's mind. Praise God!!!
As a teen girl trying to find my walk with Jesus, thank you for this video. Often times I do struggle talking to nonbelievers, because sometimes the answer is simply just faith. I don’t know all the inner workings of god, and I don’t know why god chose certain things to happen and take place. That’s where your Christian faith has to come into play. And I think that’s where people struggle. As humans we naturally want a clear answer. So whenever something becomes theoretical, we become unsettled. Like me personally, I’ve experienced the lord. I’ve been in his presence, I’ve seen miracles take place, I’ve seen people fall down to the ground with the spirit of the lord. But what made me believe the most, is when it happened to me. When I got baptized in the Holy Ghost, when I got healed of x,y,z. That’s when I got my clear answer. So in a way, I understand the nonbelievers viewpoints. When something has never happened to you, it’s hard to believe in it.
I’m looking forward to listening to some of your other videos and podcasts, as I’ve been trying to swap out my earthly habits for godly ones.
Thank you for watching and thank you for sharing!🎈
Facts, it’s crazy because it takes faith to have faith lol. But we have faith in a lot of things, we just don’t always acknowledge it. And yes, your experience is key. Nobody can take away from you🎈
The only thing I’d suggest is when referencing God, please remember to put His name in a capital G. Whether you say Lord, Father, Jesus Christ etc. Put respect on our Savior. People won’t know which “god” you are speaking of when you use lower case g.
@@ashleyciaraa4234YES INDEED THIS IS LACKING THESE DAYS 😞😞😕
I'm not a Christian. But I respect these Christians because they allowed someone of a different belief to have a conversation, without being totally one sided. Both sides had valid points, they were respectful towards each other while firming what they believe. I wish it was easier to talk about stuff like this with people. This should be expected
Thanks for watching!🎈 I’m hoping people will be inspired to have conversations like this on the regular🙏🏾
@@AChristianPod if you guys would be interested in like a Skype or video podcast, I'd love to talk to you guys at some point. I have a long Christian backround and there's a lot of things I feel we could talk about. So if you're ever interested, just let me know
To help with Maddox's question regarding what happens to the people who never heard about Jesus when they die, I remember reading a scripture where no matter if you die today or are still alive when Jesus returns, everyone will have the opportunity to accept or deny Christ. Like, when Jesus comes back and takes his people, the people who don't believe will remain on earth and still have an opportunity to accept Jesus as their lord and savior. Regarding the people who die before then, I would assume they get a chance to accept or decline. Just my take on it.
First time listener. Love the clarification about laughing about hell. I understood the laughter in the moment. But I think it's great you clarified for others.
Thank you for watching 👊🏾🎈
Praying for my brother Maddox🙏
Yessirrrr🙏🏾🎈

Great
A great, down to earth conversation!
babies do go to heaven because they’re pure and innocent
We are born through sun because of the choice Adam and Eve’s choice to eat the fruit
Yes babies are closer to God . That’s why in the Bible it always state to be child like , to be like babes. Babies are more spiritually inclined and close to God.
@@tinajohnson8015u can also be a naughty not easy to please baby - how to say...
What about baby Hitler?
@Char2805Live
Lol Yes baby Hitler had not been responsible for any murder at that point. So yeah he was still innocent at that point. Again. Lol.
Oh my I sure do wish I was there. God bless you guys
🙏🏾 thank you!🎈
Amen brothers!! May the good Lord continue to bless you and guide all of you as well!!! As an individual who has a podcast as well thank you so much for being an example in the Christian community!!
Thank you!🎈
God bless you, for your platform and the work you are doing. This is the type of dialogue that is necessary. There are so many searching for the truth and getting the wrong answers. I would have loved to be apart of this discussion with Maddux, because so many scriptures came to mind as he asked questions. I can see him developing an open mind as you guys explained things. May God continue to bless your work as you feed His flock & unbelievers.
Amen, thank you! And thanks for watching. There are a few other videos I have with him 🎈

Crazy how God works I accepted God and I prayed to him to teach me thangs thru anything and this podcast been a year ago old and I’m here learning 💯 thanks fr still trying to find a good church I can go too
God be doing His thing! What area you in?
This was a great and respectful conversation. What i would say is there is always going to be a logical question for anything in life, especially God. The logical conversation is good but I think the conversation should always be steered towards the conscience more so. I would have loved for more questions to be asked to maddox instead of the other way around. Either way i think you guys did a great job and i can see he doesnt feel like he cant approach you so its good knowing that when he does come around he can always reach out to you. Keep doing your thing. This is a great podcast!
Thank you!! 🎈
As an agnostic, it was great and refreshing to hear this from you. Some of my family members do no longer give me this Christian love anymore because of me not being convinced in the Christian god. I wish these conversations were like that more in families. I also agree how patience is needed as well with having these challenging topics.
Thanks for watching, Robert! I’m sorry to hear how your family treats you. I pray that this gave you some hope that there are people that can disagree with you and still show love to you. Maybe you can send them this video and hopefully it will give them a new perspective 🎈
Yahweh is real and wants you!†🕊️👑💯
I pray you receive what is missing to you but also send some of them this video, and try to let them know how to help you work through what is your current journey
I don't understand needing convinced since I have as long as I can remember believed I just always known and just there's always been Yahweh to me!
Jesus Christ said if we are to judge we are to judge righteously 😊❤🕊️👑💯
It makes me happy 😊 to listen to this. Very informative ❤u
Thanks for watching! 🎈
An answer for his question regarding why there is an eternal punishment or reward for the things we do here on earth..
It goes back to the garden of Eden. God in all his infinite wisdom and glory decided to make humans in his image and a place for these beautiful things he created to live and dwell with (think of a couple being so in love they decide to have a child out of that love). The goal of this was for God to dwell with us and us with God forever literally“heaven on earth”. However when Adam allowed sin to enter the world through disobedience ,God couldn’t dwell with us and us with God because of the evilness that filled our hearts. Ever since then m, God has made chess moves to ensure we can one day get back to “heaven on earth” bc It was never his plan to create us in this place and be separated from him just how it’s never a parents plan for them and their child to have an estranged relationship. Now fast forward to Jesus coming to earth! His main purpose was to bridge the gap that was made with Adam in order for us to dwell with God AGAIN how he created. So if you choose to live in sin here you choose to be estranged from God bc God in his perfectness can’t dwell in sin. His kingdom is perfect so only those who reflect God here now can dwell with him again. Those who reflect sin get to dwell in the place they felt was better than the kingdom of God and that’s hell.
The one question Maddux had about other people shouldn't be able to educate you on God and it is more that they need to experience God for themselves. This reminds me of all the mission trips Peter and the other apostles took in the book of Acts. Jesus did bless us with the Holy Spirit and wanted us to spread the word of the Gospel. He sent angels as well. Because of this us Christians are able to educate others since we are filled with the Holy Spirit and we are following what Jesus had done and wanted us to do.
On a road trip home from college this evening and I really felt like God was answering a prayer of mine. I turned my music down to pray and thank him for working in my life so much, and I felt like God told me to stop listening to music on that drive and to find a Christian podcast. I went on here and searched "Christian podcast" and this was the first video that popped up. I am extremely grateful for the fact that you're making these videos. Communicating with nonbelievers while representing God in a glorifying light is something that I've struggled with for all my life. This discussion was awesome to listen to. I'm going to surround myself with more of your content. Thank you man
Praise God! Glad to see the Holy Spirit lead you in such a cool way! 👊🏾🎈

Sorry but your example of an "answered prayer" is that you searched for something on UA-cam and you got a result for what you searched for?
@@Maksie0 listen man I'm not going to be able to change your faith with replying to that. And you commenting isn't going to make me lose mine. Yes I've been praying for God to change my heart towards him and encourage me to surround myself with things that bring me closer to him more often. You don't know my past so you don't know how different it is for me to make the choice to listen to a Christian podcast for hours than listen to my music. You can write anything off with an excuse on how it wasn't God. I have faith that it was. Thank you and have a good one man 🤙
@@Maksie0 I think you may have missed the part where Venture Groms mentioned during prayer he/she felt Jesus tell him/her to stop listening to music and to search for a Christian Podcast. Jesus will absolutely communicate this way with those who love and earnestly seek him.
@@VentureGroms Please dont let anyone discredit your beautiful encounter with the Holy Spirit or make you doubt it. Look up friend, Jesus is coming to take us home soon

HELLO UK keep this information relatively good over there ok!🕊️👑💯🤩
I wish that truth mattered more to people than their biases, identity, and worldview.
Everybody that watches this podcast should ask themselves “do I care about truth?” If you do care about truth then you would take steps to understand what leads one to truth. There is only one reliable way to find truth on this earth and that’s methodological naturalism. It’s learning skepticism and epistemology. If people could understand logic and reason, epistemology, skepticism, and fallacies then you will be lead to believe what is true or what is actually in reality.
Most times, until people encounter God personally, it’s hard to convince them. I grew up in a Christian household but I got into New Age. Until I encountered God for myself, I tried to twist and turn what I knew about the bible to fit my lifestyle. #nolongerbound
I would've loved to be a part of this podcast, I understand all males, but there were so many moments where I wanted to chime in
Keep going ! I love this

Thanks Kevin This is a great podcast. Maddox is typical of a lot of young people today. Love his honesty. My take on this is he does not know Who GOD is, who Jesus is, and he does need to be taught the WHOLE Bible. Once he has been taught the whole Bible he will be better equipped to make the right choices. It seems he is mixing science (what he sees) with the things of the Spirit (which is Faith).
Best comment couldn’t have said this better myself , he is definitely mixing science and his faith as a way of reasoning and I think that’s why it was so hard for the men to understand his questions and give better equipped answers .
Do not get me wrong the men stilll gave great answers but I mean the answers the young man was looking for . Great video though !
Thank you for watching! Let’s keep reaching people like Maddux🎈

For the first question about making up realities in our brains, Proverbs 23:7 says As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. I think that our hearts do the making up. Our brain just has the information needed for it. What's crazy is it's so easy to think we're thinking logically when we're actually not. "The heart is deceitful above all things, who can trust it?"
Trueeee
Bro you need to talk about the different church denominations pleaseee. Some of us desperately need it because many will fall on that wide road instaed of the narrow road.

I wish I was on this podcast and able to answer his questions.
I was thinking the same thing the whole time, with biblical references. Must be prepared in and out of season to give an answer, studying to show thyself approved, rightly dividing the word, with the power of the Holy Spirit. The author of confusion, a liar from the begining is busy.
As a young man (25) I’m trying to walk with Jesus. my grandparents are devout Christians and I’ve always felt deep down god is there from time to time.
Yessirr, put your faith in Jesus bro. He won’t let you down

John 15:7
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
Matthew 19:14
14 Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them,❗️for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these❗️.”
I know the devil will cause confusion, and the way Maddox speaks is confusion. That’s how he separates us from God. God WILL reveal his truth to you. I see Maddox is seeking answers and God will give it to him if he’s willing to receive it. Sew the seeds 😌
Great discussion, thanks for posting. Can I have your thoughts on the following?
I respectfully assert that *every* Christian believes in Jesus based on someone else's word. Even if the Christian ignores his pastor and reads the Bible for their self, they're still reading what someone else wrote about Jesus. The believer might say _"I experienced Jesus through the Holy Spirit."_ Again, one wouldn't know about the Holy Spirit unless they read about it in the Bible.
If a Christian had an experience with the Holy Spirit, that's great, but how does the Christian prove it? I can't see the Holy Spirit, I can't measure or interact with it, how do *I* know it's real?
Thanks.
Great question. I don't think understanding the source of the experience (the Holy Spirit) is necessary to understanding that you had an encounter with God. I use wifi everyday, but if my life depended on it, I couldn't tell you how it actually works lol.
I've seen with my own eyes and experienced myself what it's like to fall under the power of God. I can't explain it nor can I measure it, but nobody can convince me that the power of God isn't real.
Paul said, "My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power".
The power of God trumps our understanding. Hopefully that makes sense. I like this question🎈
@Kingdom Within We Ask For More Hundreds Of Loving Prosperous Kingdoms ♥️Thanks -The Policy Of Truth Needs More Clever Hands The Great Spirit- Thanks To The Ark Made By Hands Return To The Kingdoms ♥️ Be Made Well Amen I Love You Welcome All
If I may add a couple of points!
1) Paul tells us in 2nd Timothy that "all scripture is God-breathed." If this is true, which I believe it to be, then your assertion holds true. Every Christian's belief in Jesus is ultimately based on someone else's word. The Word of God. So yes, even if the Christian ignores his pastor and reads the scriptures for himself, his belief in Christ is rooted in God's literal spoken word to him. We should then be exceedingly confident in our faith in Jesus.
2) The idea that we can not interact with the Holy Spirit is subjective. Scripture makes it clear that the Holy Spirit is God himself. The Holy Spirit has a mind, emotions, and a will, and I do believe we can interact with Him. Not only is that evident at Pentecost in the book of Acts, but it should be evident in every believers life. The Holy Spirit changes the heart. The believers' outpouring of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control should be evidence enough as these things are impossible apart from Him. Conviction of sin and a repentant heart are all evidences of the Spirit interacting with us. Lastly, in a strange twist of fate, even our own ability to understand the scriptures concerning the Holy Spirit is only possible through the given wisdom and discernment of the Spirit Himself!
God bless!
@@telmore88great explanation, I agree 🙏
I obviously need help with this subject LoL I feel like I'm striking out 😊😢😮
This is so god
Int the first five minutes the answer to the question could be: when man was created the Father said: let us make man in our image and in our likeness.
If I were to ask 10 people in a room what's most important to them 80%+ would say relationship and the reason why is because we are made in His likeness. God wants a relationship with us, religion is man-made for control, relationship being is our original design
Matthew 6:22
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
We r told once ur have obeyed the gospel to renew UT mind
The question he asked about being punished infinitely for something finite could be answered in that what we do here on earth is not finite. Everything we do is in accordance to God's plan which is ongoing and beyond our knowledge and time. And also recognize that your actions/words do not stop at you, but affect the people and world around you to an extent that you may never fully know. Operationing outside of bringing glory to God and not acting on the desires He has put in your heart leads to a place that is eternally without him.
Facts! Solid take, thanks for watching 🎈
Psalms 119:29
Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.
36:23 WOAH !! 🙆♀️
The bible is backed up by so much evidence. Christianity is not just a matter of faith. The details in it are something that even many theologians couldn't dispute. The bible, unlike the Quran, was written by 40 authors spanning over a long period of time, in different languages, and compiled decades after the events of Jesus. Jesus' coming was already predicted centuries before He was crucified. The crucifixion of Jesus was not a fictional occurrence, and the fact that his following grew even more so after the fact made me question why. Because back then, being a Christian was literally a matter of life or death. People were literally killed for going against the Roman empire. Jesus was crucified because He stated He was the son of God. The Jews handed him over to the Romans on the grounds of Blasphemy. He had ample opportunity to deny the allegations and spare Himself the gruesome death He knew was awaiting Him, but He chose to still sacrifice Himself, for it was already written, and He knew He would arise again.
I do not know what 3 dimensional words are, but what has come to my mind for that question is this Scripture.
Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
Matthew 13:13
Jesus spoke in illustrations to give people understanding of God and the kingdom.
Even the disciples didn’t truly seem to understand, although much became clearer to them once they received the Holy Spirit.
Also this Scripture on our limited understanding.
For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face.
Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
I Corinthians 13:12
But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children. Matthew 19:14
How do you know God created our brains?
Palsm 139 talks about babies and young children going to heaven👍
Die and go to hell? Where does it say we burn in hell?
I’m agnostic but THESE are the type Christians I like. The ones comfortable saying “I don’t know”. I feel Christians would be able to bring more people to their religion if they didn’t pretend they had all the answers. Good video
Love this comment 🙌🏾 Thanks for watching and leaving your thoughts 🎈
34:58 We have the Holy Spirit (God in us)…Simple answer
It’s difficult to talk and have conversations with my Christian family because they easily get mad and take everything as an offense from you just because you disagree and have a different perspective on life, morality, and criticize their logic.
To the question at 35:08. It’s not that you are telling someone how to get closer from your own understanding. You are directing everyone to the living word thus it’s not you speaking but God. If you are created to do every good work you are supposed to or have a duty to share faith and to meet with the body of Christ
To explain a little bit with scripture about what Madix is talking about something finite shouldn't send you to eternal punishment or whatever, James 2:10 says, "Whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it." God doesn't necessarily view all sin the same, but all sin makes you fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). No matter what we do, we will inevitably sin. We are not perfect. We make our own decisions because God made us to make our own decisions. But the ONLY way we can get to heaven is to "confess with your mouth 'Jesus is Lord' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." (Romans 10:10) I hope this helps explain a little bit more. :D
I don't think anyone worships their own spirituality. Being spiritual just means you believe life has a purpose, and you're looking for it.
If you’re above the age of accountability you will be judged. A 11 year old knows right from wrong. A 5 year old does not
about good and evil- read C.S lewis mere christianity ch.1 "law of human nature". If there is no God, then where do morals come from?
We all have a desire for him, Jesus our God, its the empty pit in your stomach that you cannot fill with anything else- food, drugs, things etc. Sure we have our basic needs call that what you want, but how about those desires? All roads have a dead end and end up leading to him.
Matthew 7:7 NKJV
7“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

@AChristianPod hi again. Just following up. Did you receive my email? I hoped to connect with one of your guests. I sent you a Gmail and still awaiting a response. Maybe you're busy. Just want to follow up.
Ok so I don’t know if Maddox will see this or not but evil exists because we made it exist, we would be living in peace and harmony and perfect life in heaven if it waswnt for eve eating the apple. But we made evil what it is, idk if that’s answers his question but I hope it does❤
What do you believe made Eve eat the apple?
10:41 Mark 10:13-16
We should worship God because he is God? If you create ant farm, should they worship you?
Say you were a math's teacher equipped with knowledge of true equations. If someone was to say to you that 2x2=10, would you want to correct their mistake an equip them of the truth or will you be satisfied just allowing them to go about life believing a lie? Food for thought.
*How do you convince a skeptic?*
At 3:23, Kevin said _"there's one truth... Jesus is the truth."_ *How can you prove that?* A skeptic doesn't view the Bible as authoritative, so the skeptic isn't going to believe Jesus is the truth just because the Bible says it.
Thanks.
That's a great point. This was back in July and as I was editing it (in December), I realize how much we referenced scripture to someone that doesn't believe the Bible to be true. .The effort at that point should be spent trying to reason and show the person through history, geography, ect. that the Bible is the authoritative, inerrant Word of God🎈

i feel like the kid is coming from is its either this or that. There are these things of the world but there is also a God. I think the word Also is very important and even covers the willingness to know God is what makes us to even be casted to hell or go to Heaven. The choice or “alsoness” of the world is what makes us move to God because there can be compare and contrast all day long, but there also a God.
The young man makes mor sense than the Christian's
I noticed you kicked us out of your discord but you know a fair warning would've been nice but it's okay God bless you and may he continue to use you to bring the lost sheep to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior🙌
That’s fair, I’m new to discord and don’t know the proper way to go about that
@@AChristianPod No worries brother in Christ just continue to do what you were called to do just as I am called. I often need to remind myself that the body of Christ are multiple parts and everyone has different gifts. But that doesn't mean I should ignore other areas of truth, I should accept what is truth for as long as it is true and embrace all aspects of truth for as long as it brings the lost sheep to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. However I understand where you're at and respect you for doing what you do to contribute to the body of Christ. Keep up the good work with your podcast I am still a subscriber and will continue to watch. God bless your ministry brother.

“Why doesn’t God delete the devil ? “ God created the darkness to patronise the light (children of God) when out of alignment to his will, practising sin and being disobedient, God leaves you over to Satan on purpose (all still in his control) because your refusing to come to him for your answers, instead going to people or ideas and conceptions of the world and what it offers (new age spirituality) and simply just being disobedient
I believe it’s in Isaiah 49 I believe where it says that God is the creator of good and bad.
“Why doesn’t god delete the devil”?
Because he’s afraid to like the coward “God” is. I’ll do it but not for him
0:31
I don’t think that it is through works we are going to be saved but I think I that through confession of Jesus being lord and belief that Jesus died on the cross we are saved just like that, nooooo I think that we do have to follow Gods will and that’s what the Ten Commandments are for , for us to follow and abide by them, that’s why there is repentance and God says in the Bible that we are forgivin through Jesus, it’s because we do have to follow rules and have to put a little bit of work in to it, but yes I do believe through faith and confession we are like invited in ig you could say but I feel through doing the works of God we are truly saved
I don't want to sound mean but a few minutes in and this conversation is awful. All we've had so far is a lot of assertions about a range of things (largely theological) that are either demonstrably false or logically incoherant. And that's from both sides. It's staggering how ill equipt people are to have these conversations.
At least they are trying though and it's good that these conversations happen. It's just sad to see the way their religion has corroded their cognative abilities. They all see like good and honest people though. They just seem to have fallen for the con that is religion.
U cannot compare spiritual things with u feelings
41:09 For all that we know people who received healings because they think that they would be healed it could have been God healing them. Psalms 145 says that He loves all that He has made and He is a God of beliefs.
People in the gospels were healed because they believed that they would be healed.🙂
Trueee🎈
Long comment but I pray it helps anyone who reads it through. To the question posed- why does a finite moment place us in infinite space, whether it be heaven or hell. From the beginning humans were created to fellowship with God and we weren’t meant to die. Death was the consequence of eating the fruit (disobeying God) Gen 2:17. When Adam and Eve sinned they broke our relationship with God causing us to no longer have access to eternal life Gen 3:22-23. Which requires us to have an infinite placement as a result of human death. Jesus is our redemption, the choice we make to believe in Him as our savior restores our relationship with God Rom 5:11. So in Jesus second coming we’re able to receive salvation Hebrews 9:28 and live in our glorified bodies Phili 3:20-21. God patiently gives us multiple opportunities to make it right because He doesn’t want us to die, be eternally separated from Him 2 Peter 3:9. With Jesus we’re able to have eternal life as we were originally created to have. I pray that each of you are able to receive the free gift of salvation from Jesus Christ 🤍
I wish he would just told him all babies go to heaven plain and simple
Kids that know right from wrong will be held accountable. god want us to be like children if we get wrong by someone we for give them like a child when you punish them he want us to have that relationship with him forget the religion part.
How is it freedom of choice when the only other option is to burn in Hell? That's a bound choice, if any type of choice at all.
Why do you keep deleting some of my comments?
1 Peter 3:15
King James Version
15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
I haven’t deleted any of your comments
I think for the question of why God doesn't delete the Devil, the devil is the father of lies and deception, but he was also a being with a choice just as we are. Because we ate of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, we are knowledgeable and capable of both good and evil. The evil acts of man are not reliant on the Lucifer's existence. It speaks about him in Ezekiel, because he was originally an angel, more precisely a cherubim. Therefore even the Devil was intended originally for good and for the glory of God, but just like we can corrupted with evil, Lucifer was corrupted. I believe evil to be the absence of God, hell is about as distant from God as you can get. This however doesn't mean there's an in-between. I believe that even if you led a righteous life, if your do not choose God, you choose the absence of God and to distance yourself from Him. This means hell. We are doomed for hell as it is, but God sent Jesus to give us a path away from that fate and only through this path(Jesus) do we exit this inevitable fate. I do not know if this is backed up with scripture, however based on my experience studying the Bible, it's what rings true for me.
🎈Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord
I think the question that young boy asked about our brain creating our own reality is true but what matters is what is the reality according to God because when we don't believe what God said about our reality there when the Satan can infiltrate and create the alternate reality in our brain. Our mind is a battlefield between what God said about us vs what Satan said about us. Like it said on the Bible the devil come to steal,kill and destroy but Jesus come to bless and give you life abundantly.(this is not the exact verses) So, I'll said a reality in your brain is valid but it doesn't meant that's the truth and the end of the story. From my personal experience what God said about my reality is the total truth for me because He is always plans for my goodness,my success,my joy,my peace and my freedom. Hope this will help you...
Well said🎈 Thanks for watching and sharing your perspective

Leave it at that? Too much theology echoed. Not enough scripture. Please invite too next podcast lol
I believe there are many verses about your minds ability to create its own imagination. But in a way that tells us to be aware of it and its ability to lead us astray from the absolute truth of Jesus. Verses as 2 Corthinthians 10:5-6 reveals to us that we have ability to choose from a variety of choice if they are dependent on what we see through our eyes and perceive.
2 Corinthians 10:5-6
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Tells us that we were created with the ability to make up our own thoughts and beliefs, in turn making our own minds up about things. God did not create us as robots but with free will to choose. I don't believe we come to faith because of our visual ability of seeing life through our eyes. There are many testimony of people in the Bible upto now explaining there path to faith in christ very differently. Different ways, decades, cultures, backgrounds, environment, people etc etc. Having to many variations with only one resembles the truth of Jesus bringing them together.
Again, being a believing is much more than just a belief, it's life changing and impact your whole life for it to just be what you see.
Good stuff, thanks for watching! 🎈
Nobody knows Almighty God at all. because he is God. just let's see, what the bible says in (job 11:7-8) read it... we can't found hem in argument, but if we ask (pray) him, he reveal himself. And kev, God bless you, God be with you and i pray for you... ❤❤❤❤
I don't think anyone worships their own spirituality. What an odd concept. Being spiritual just means you believe life has a purpose and you're searching for it.
They giving this dude talking nonsense wayyy too much credit !
How to talk to unbelievers: by being respectful and respecting what they don’t believe in, and not forcing religion down their throats
Yessirr 🎈

Yet when you atheist find out someone Christian you ridicule, judge, make fun of, try to make them feel unintelligent because of what they believe. Good thing you don’t believe in God because now you don’t have anything to hold you accountable for your hypocrisy 😀🤡😂
If God is just a figment of everyone's imagination (which is highly possible), then Jesus is just imaginary. And if so, it wouldn't even matter what the Bible says about him (that he's that way, the truth, and the life)
Eternal torture? Not biblical brotha.

i get what maddox is saying like you can’t force someone to believe in God with your words but through HIS word, it is different than OUR words. His word is the living word. So yes in his logic i would say God’s word is “3 dimensional.” That’s why God says lean not on your own understanding and read people the scripture of HIS word instead of only using your interpretation. Also, we are made in His image for the purpose of being a reflection of who God is.
