Good morning Professor Hunter & Dr. Black. Y’all r rocking the world’s of preacher kids 😂. I’m 56 now & was THAT pk problem because I voiced many questions. To God be the Glory. Dr. Black just described my existence!🎉 My celebration is not being the only 1…aware.❤🎉❤🎉 ❤❤❤ I love y’all 2 the moon 🌚 🌙 & back 🏡 !❤❤❤
Dr. Black always brings it!!! I think this may have been the first time I was right along with him or saw where he was heading & didn't have to rewind multiple times to digest what he was saying.
Dr. Black said something that struck my core: "God gives us gifts that we didn't ask for". That is exactly what I am dealing with at this very moment. The Most High used the great Dr. Black to send me confirmation that it is all apart of God's plan. Thank you for being a vessel. For those of us fortunate enough to hear your anointed words- what a true blessing. And thank you again Prof Hunter, you are a wonderful conductor bringing spiritual music to our souls.
I love this conversation Professor Karen! If we search the scriptures, Mary said "let it be unto me according to your word. She consented to give birth to Jesus! Dr. Black is Awesome!
Mary did give consent, when she responded let it be according to your word, oh yes there was dialogue between her and the angel that brought her the message
When I meet people who were brought up Christian who later reject Christianity as adults, it almost always means they've been taught that there's only one 'infallible' set of beliefs that must adhered to in order to be a Christian. But for those who have freed their minds from this narrow perspective, a whole new concept of Christianity, God and reading of the Word can be opened up that is liberating.
Mary consented by her absolute faith IN GOD! That whatever HE/SHE did “worked together for good for those who LOVE the Lord and are CALLED according to HER/HIS will.”
Sit still and know I AM God! Operative Words, "I AM!" Go within and find the I AM! This is when you find the truth of who you are in "I AM" Dr. Black is making people think! These are metaphors not literal, and we have to think critically and draw out our own analysis or our perception of truth from it. Thank you both🎉❤
Can't help it- one more comment. Thank you, thank you, thank you Prof Hunter for sharing this clip. I think I will refer to this anointed soul as Dr. Black Bars because every time he opens his mouth- spiritual bars just start flying out. I am so very grateful. I really needed this 8 minute uplifting boost today. Much gratitude.
Oooh I'm wondering how deep this hole is going to go. See this is what happens when you question everything...the sky is the limit to what you begin to understand. Wait until you ask the question if Jesus is the Messiah. So glad we are able to have these types of discussions. It's hard when you question what you've believed your whole life. Thank you again Prof Hunter and Dr. Black.
Wow, I love to watch walk Dr. Black walk through these questions in real-time. God definitely moves through him. Dr. Black and Carr are my fav guest of yours - both are brilliant, open minded and humble!
I've always believed it's up to the individual to look at all the information and define God for themselves. I do not think one size fits all. There are intersections but one's continued growth and personal clarity is always transitory.
If you would read the Bible Mary did give permission right after Yahovah's Angel told her this good news, she was not taken advantage of and only someone who does not know The God of The Bible would think and say something like that whether it be a child or an adult. This is why He tells us to seek His Kingdom and His Righteousness first and it is also one of the reasons why Yahshua says over and over, Come unto Me and learn from Me.
God doesn’t grow. GOD IS. GOD “IS” ALL the time. What happens is WE grow. And we’ve outgrown a Bible that was written centuries and centuries ago for how people were THEN. Yes! There are still lessons to be learned from the Bible, but we haven’t yet recognized scholars with a deeper wisdom we so desperately need to hear today. And since many of them are from countries we have little knowledge of, it may take several more generations to recognize them. Much like what happened with the creation of the first Bible.
Respectfully Dr. Black in Luke 1 is it not written in the text that Mary responded ‘“…let Your will be done in me…” Meaning this; Yes let’s challenge what has been taught by many. In doing so I isn’t it also important to challenge hearers & listeners to accept the context provided from The Most High while rejecting the All pretext…. even when if the same is intended to inspire, encourage, revive, and/or draw listeners and or hearers to The Most High?
Why does man always have to have an answer to the question of who God is and why (He) does what (He) does. No way us being human can begun to answer those questions. Its our arrogance within to always have to give an answer to a concept we truly don’t have the ability to answer. Much love and respect to Dr. Black but this is out of our league to answer.
If one thing is wrong does not make the whole thing wrong. Mary stated "If it is God's Will, then let it be done". Mary did consented, but she was uncertain of it. Also, at the time in the Bible, children were given into marriage with the parent's consent. So, it was not uncommon for a teenaged girl to be married and pregnant.
You know Professor Karen Hunter I knew that this was a metaphor like a bunch of other quotes and things in the Bible they're all metaphors I never understood why people took it literally cuz just like Dr Black said it's set up that way so that you can go through the journey and pursue excellence I knew this back in the '70s 🤔
I love you, Karen and Dr. Black. Dr. Black is wrong and Yeshua is perfect according to the scripture, a man can never judge scripture, but scripture judges us and is spot on it is correct every time not some of the time. God doesn't kill, sin kills god gives life. The word has to be divided rightly; if Dr. Black cannot do that, then he is the problem and not Yeshua because he is and will remain perfect.
I just think its fascinating how mere "men" sit and explain God! Its like having a child you "birth into being" explain how you think, "why" you think all you think and the intention behind each and every action - and they don't even know how to say their own name!!! In comparison, we've been here "all of a minute" yet sit and analyze GOD who is ETERNAL. Where did we get such audacity? Because clearly we think God is as "we are" and not the other way around. If we sit and analyze our own selves "how we think" and "what we do" and the "intentions" behind our actions - won't we be just as confused? Aren't the reasons unfathomable? Yet, we presume to "know and understand God" - as if "confused" just as we are! HE IS NOT! Yet, we presume him to be. And try to "make sense" out of his actions. You gotta be "some kind of special" to reduce God to your level and think you can find him within the chaos of your own creation, expecting he "fit" so you can "pinpoint him" and "tell all about him". God creates and man "perverts and destroys" what God created. And now we sit and say "where is he in all this"? The bigger question is "where were you" in all this? Because when God created the earth he declared "it was good" and didn't bring a man into it until after. But what did you do with it? How did you occupy the places he had given you? Will we now turn the "wreckage" we have made of all that he gave - and say "explain yourself" and command to know the basis behind his actions? Truly, we don't see ourselves or the audacity in which we function.
@@KarenHunterShow EXACTLY! Before we try to analyze God and the things he has stated - we need to check our own selves and see if we live up to the claims we ourselves are making. Where do we get the audacity and presumption to know "spiritual" things being led according to the "flesh"? Yet here we sit compelled by the "flesh" to diagnose "spiritual" things, like how a man can produce a man, without the help of a man? MAN is both Male & Female. And both were created by God "without the help of a man. So because "a Virgin gave birth" we question if God is able to produce such a thing, without the help of a man? What we do is "sit and analyze God" to see if his actions line up to our belief of what is "right and wrong". The laws we have been given by God were to "keep us in check" not him! Who can say he is "right or wrong" concerning a thing he determined to do? Will you hold GOD to the laws given to MAN? By what authority? God is bound by his "word" not "a law" given for man. And being God, reserves the right to repent of a thing he determined to do. It means, he's free to "change his mind". Rather than call God "a liar" or that he meant something "other" than what he actually said, why not simply say "its beyond my comprehension, knowledge or ability to understand" and proceed with the truth you know? Nobody is being asked to accept what they "cannot accept". Only, what they are able to "receive".
Can’t believe people have not awakened from this Christianity nightmare. I pose this question, were you born with a religion or was it imposed on you in your innocence? Why would the oppressor give you a GOD to save you from hell when your oppressor creates the hell in which you live? And last but not least, would the white race serve an African man on the cross?🤔 Anyone who believes what is in the Bible as the word of God you are right. The Bible is the word of man who is controlling your mind to believe instead of knowing. Wake up!!!!!
The book in question was authored by a male[s]. While I do not personally subscribe to its contents, I have to say that my recent exploration of the topic has led me to ponder further. Specifically, I am troubled by the account of Mary, who was reportedly informed of her pregnancy and initially resisted. Despite her objections, she was subjected to the complete control of the male figures in her life. It begs the question: if a divine being can send an angel, why resort to taking advantage of vulnerable individuals, such as young girls or elderly women? Additionally, the whereabouts of Joseph after the fact remains unclear. While I acknowledge that my personal knowledge and interest in this topic is limited, I believe that continued inquiry and pursuit of answers are crucial for those who are invested in it. "From the age at which Jewish maidens became marriageable, it is possible that Mary gave birth to her son when she was about thirteen or fourteen years of age. No historical document tells us how old she was at the time of the Nativity." How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus? They were Jews in ancient Israel, which was an agrarian society at that time. The birth of Jesus to Mary or Mariam (her name in Greek NT) was miraculous. Not because she was young. But because she was old! The NT scriptures say the couple were betrothed. That is, they were fully married. It would hardly be a miracle if she were young and became pregnant. How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus? We are never told the age of Joseph or Mary. Many assume that the Virgin Mary was a teenager because that was the age that young women often got married at that time. Based on practices at the time, the assumption is that Joseph would have been older than Mary, but how much older is unknown. How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus? In the Roman Catholic tradition, Mary remained a perpetual virgin. When the New Testament speaks of Jesus’ brothers and sisters (Matthew 13:55-56), one Roman Catholic interpretation is that these are Joseph’s children from a previous marriage. If we assume he had multiple children of a prior marriage, then we can assume that he must have been quite a bit older than Mary-at least old enough to have had five or six other children. How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus? By Jesus’ public ministry, Joseph seems to have passed from the scene. Although Mary is mentioned several times in the gospels, Joseph is never mentioned after the incident of twelve-year-old Jesus in the temple (Luke 2:42-52). How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus? How old was Mary when she had Jesus,” the answer is that Mary was relatively young in age but mature in faith. Mary put her faith in action by pushing past her fear and moving forward with what God called her to do. Still related to the question, Dr. Black proposes a few vlogs back about Mary, age, and her body.
Greetings all! God is omnipresent, omniscience, omnipotent. God dont make mistakes, man does. Why do we think we know what God would or would not do….. man’s arrogance!
So upon listening to your video. I am humbly asking, Is Dr. Black saying that God grows and is in need of growth as humans do grow and are in need of growth also?
One needs to learn to "Exegesis Scripture": bringing out the meaning of the scriptures and NOT to "Eisegesis Scripture": adding your own opinion to the scriptures
Sis God has never been revised. We were originally lied to about who we are are who God is to us. THAT IS the big secret to this whole entire thing and it ties into the book of revelation. The truth will not be revised or changed. This is precisely why them folks are afraid of woke. Umgawa. ✊🏾
@@KarenHunterShow Peace and blessings sis. I’m going to share with you what God Himself has to say about that, to us as a ppl, out of the book we as a ppl claim to believe: …………………………… (Presented as a scholastic citation.) Malachi 3: 5. “For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.” …………………………. WE were changed. OUR mindset was changed. OUR culture was hidden. We are in the process of recovering what belongs to us. We are awakening. And God remains the same. He is not a concept. We have zero control over what He does. His word will not return to Him void. He is The Maker and The Owner. That scares some ppl.
There have been Theologians throughout History that believe that The God in the Old Testament isnt the same God as in the New Testament..Old Testament God was more willing to punish and show his wrath whereas New Testament God was more Loving and forgiving. Read Theologian Marcion of Sinope his readings are interesting 🤔🤔🤔
I guess Eve is forgiven for picking and eating that fruit. This brother is talking nonsense. There are so many points where he needed to be challenged.
@@KarenHunterShow Challenge is necessary. If everyone chose to not engage in your content, your platform, like any other on YT, would materially, cease to exist. Admittedly, I don't know the purpose of your platform, but its fair to assume it's meant to inform or otherwise provoke dialogue amongst your audience, not simply "move on."
Ummm... with love and respect no sir. #1 The Bible says Mary consented "let it be as you say". #2 We need to stop making excuses for a flawed religion. To take your answer is to blasphemy and contradiction, which is still against the rules. The question is dose it contradict? Yes. It does. Does contradiction go against the claim of perfection? Yes. Is that wrong? Yes. It has to be. It is the truth and it hurts. But the sooner we deal with it, the better. I had to go through this journey by myself. It destroyed me... twice. My whole life was ministry and the church. But it is what it is. I'm here for those who are taking the journey or just want truth. Nobody should go thru it alone.
Wouldn’t that be an argument that there is no divine creator, that it’s all cause and effect (evolution)? It feels like what Dr. Black is doing is making up methods to have it both ways which is very common in religion. To stay in it you have to do all kinds of mental gymnastics, making up ways to follow a logic. Ironically, much of this involves throwing out logic and making up rules. “A thing has to be flawed and still be wonderful”. Why?? Says who?? “I think god grows”. Where is that?? It’s all reaching. If you study anthropology and human brain size you’ll find our brains were on a growth trend when we were hunter gatherers until the agricultural period. Once we started eating grains and setting our brains stopped growing and started shrinking and we started having various metabolic disorders. Where is the god in that design, where human actions impact human growth in a negative way but it’s god’s design of growth, to make things better, when shrinking brain size and disease makes us worse? Uh oh, I think I just helped someone argue for the eventual extinction of humans as a part of “the plan”. lol 😂 🤦🏾♀️. And yet, a little girl was impregnated against her free will. The issue still remains. Free will seems to only work for those making bad choices. The rest of us just have bad things happen to us, AGAINST our will.
3:18 Nah, no matter how you slight and dice it: “God is Perfect, God is light, and in him there is no darkness - none at all!” Any other concept is nothing more than exaggerated man called god, the world mind the ruler of this world of form and matter. Let no man with breath in his nostrils, no matter what title or regalia they have, deceive you.
I don’t know if I can accept Dr. Black’s explanation about God’s own growth and thereby his/it’s ability to move through our existence adjusting things as he it sees fit. It isn’t clear. Are we making excuses for the inconsistencies in the Bible? One wrong thing in the book doesn’t dismiss everything else, but it does give pause to our interpretation of bible as well as how theologians espouse truth mixed with suppositions. Man has already decided how and why we should consider the Bible as our Judeo Christian foundation, and it’s often based as the final word. We should ask questions of a bible that reveal inconsistencies; a blueprint created to influence people and behaviors. Sometimes there are things we can’t explain, and that’s ok.
@@KarenHunterShow I believe that he has extensive knowledge on the topic, and I listen to what he says, often prophetic, but in this case things are not as clear as he often
@@MariaAlvarez-mn9nd It's okay. Sit with it. If it doesn't resonate, this message isn't for you. And that's okay. We are all on our own unique journey and we all have our OWN relationship with the Most High!
Professor Karen is Doctor Black saying we are like the little white mice "humans" and the Scientist "God" test things on us to see how we will respond.
@@KarenHunterShow Thank you Professor Karen. In all honesty we can't see God in all it's divinity because nobody really understands what Divinity really is. All I can do as a human is see God in nature and in other humans. We don't even know what Satan really is, I can see wickedness in how we as humans "choose" to deal with others and how injustice is heaped upon the marginalized and monetary reward is granted to the privilege. I have experienced the grace, mercy and kindness of the Divine and I have experienced the nastiness of wickedness which caused me to grow and become a better version of my higher self and people can testify the bad experiences have caused them to be better versions of themself and at times it created a demon on earth so I say all that to say nobody know what God truly is.
God is a Man of War, he’s not always loving, he’s a Just, and Balance God. The problem is, A lot of Pastor don’t keep knowledge, they keep Lies and Religion and the Bible don’t teach that, to My Israelites brothers and sisters please Read the Bible. And Mary had Baby Jesus by her husband Joseph. Think logically Black Man and not like the Esau
@@KarenHunterShow God thought Ain’t Nobody else though, God Don’t Play about Is Nation of Gods who are Israelite, today known as Negro, Hispanic and Native. Let God Speak: ”The LORD is a man of war: The LORD is his name. Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea. The depths have covered them: They sank into the bottom as a stone. Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: Thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.“ Exodus 15:3-6 KJV
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. The Birth of Jesus was prophecied by the Prophet Isaiah 700 years before the Angel Gabriel appeared to the Virgin Mary. The Virgin Birth was a fullfillment of scripture Luke 1:26-38
I don't think god grows at all. Humanities discernment of what God is through experience is a significant part of what this human journey is about. We cannot make this journey collectively. It's an individual journey that takes tremendous effort and willingness to be transformed to know beyond all doubt, what God truly is...which is that we're truly a part of God. "Be still and know that I am God."
The word Christian does not belong in the Bible because the Bible says it does not belong. The word of Yeshua God has to come out of his mouth. No one else okay, The word has to be established in the mouth of two or three witnesses no lees and you have to divide the word rightly no man can divide the word rightly so you are going to know how to use the Bible so that it has to divide the word rightly for you. Because no man can divide the word rightly, but the word has no problem dividing the word right. What man knows a man except the spirit of the man?
Sounds good but Nope on the Mary and the birth of Jesus. Please read Luke chapter one. Mary gave consent. There are things in the Bible that a prescriptive and some descriptive. The Bible does not condone everything in it. It’s for our learning. Having multiple wives is descriptive, there isn’t a story in the Bible where someone having multiple wives worked out great for them.
This is disturbing. This non-believer has removed the very foundation of who The Most High Is and inserted his version of who he would like The Creator of the heavens and the earth to be. He has brought The Highest down to his level and given Him a place with creation. God's People perish for a lack of knowledge because they reject God's Knowledge and go about thinking they are wiser and that they can and actually have the right to interpret what He Is saying without His Spirit, which one must have to receive from Elohim, The Most High God. The God of The Bible does not lie because Truth cannot lie and He was not lying when He said that heaven and earth shall all pass away, but His Word shall stand. We must be very, very careful mettling with The Word of The Great God Yahovah. He don't play that and He has already stated what happens to people who mislead His sheep
The Bible contains a lot of wisdom along with a lot of cultural dysfunction. Discernment is needed.
Holy Spirit Discernment yes.
Absolutely. The Bible was written by MEN 2000 years ago.
You don't have discernment if Yeshua God doesn't give it to you and it also is found in the Bible because he is a God of his word Yeshua.
Christianity with its white Jesus has been used to control Black people religion is a club
Bless you all for shaking my spirit every time

By his statement which is fine by me he has changed the definition of what we knew God to be
Wasn't Dr Black meant to be a pastor! His animated motions just equate him to one!
Perfect definition: having all the required or desirable elements, qualities, or characteristics; as good as it is possible to be.
I love you, Karen and Dr. Black. Dr. Black is wrong and Yeshua is perfect according to the scripture, a man can never judge scripture, but scripture judges us and is spot on it is correct every time not some of the time. God doesn't kill, sin kills god gives life. The word has to be divided rightly; if Dr. Black cannot do that, then he is the problem and not Yeshua because he is and will remain perfect.

Who can say he is "right or wrong" concerning a thing he determined to do? Will you hold GOD to the laws given to MAN? By what authority? God is bound by his "word" not "a law" given for man. And being God, reserves the right to repent of a thing he determined to do. It means, he's free to "change his mind". Rather than call God "a liar" or that he meant something "other" than what he actually said, why not simply say "its beyond my comprehension, knowledge or ability to understand" and proceed with the truth you know? Nobody is being asked to accept what they "cannot accept". Only, what they are able to "receive".
Can’t believe people have not awakened from this Christianity nightmare. I pose this question, were you born with a religion or was it imposed on you in your innocence? Why would the oppressor give you a GOD to save you from hell when your oppressor creates the hell in which you live? And last but not least, would the white race serve an African man on the cross?🤔 Anyone who believes what is in the Bible as the word of God you are right. The Bible is the word of man who is controlling your mind to believe instead of knowing. Wake up!!!!!
The book in question was authored by a male[s]. While I do not personally subscribe to its contents, I have to say that my recent exploration of the topic has led me to ponder further. Specifically, I am troubled by the account of Mary, who was reportedly informed of her pregnancy and initially resisted. Despite her objections, she was subjected to the complete control of the male figures in her life. It begs the question: if a divine being can send an angel, why resort to taking advantage of vulnerable individuals, such as young girls or elderly women? Additionally, the whereabouts of Joseph after the fact remains unclear. While I acknowledge that my personal knowledge and interest in this topic is limited, I believe that continued inquiry and pursuit of answers are crucial for those who are invested in it.
"From the age at which Jewish maidens became marriageable, it is possible that Mary gave birth to her son when she was about thirteen or fourteen years of age. No historical document tells us how old she was at the time of the Nativity."
How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus?
They were Jews in ancient Israel, which was an agrarian society at that time.
The birth of Jesus to Mary or Mariam (her name in Greek NT) was miraculous. Not because she was young. But because she was old! The NT scriptures say the couple were betrothed. That is, they were fully married. It would hardly be a miracle if she were young and became pregnant.
How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus?
We are never told the age of Joseph or Mary. Many assume that the Virgin Mary was a teenager because that was the age that young women often got married at that time. Based on practices at the time, the assumption is that Joseph would have been older than Mary, but how much older is unknown.
How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus?
In the Roman Catholic tradition, Mary remained a perpetual virgin. When the New Testament speaks of Jesus’ brothers and sisters (Matthew 13:55-56), one Roman Catholic interpretation is that these are Joseph’s children from a previous marriage. If we assume he had multiple children of a prior marriage, then we can assume that he must have been quite a bit older than Mary-at least old enough to have had five or six other children.
How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus?
By Jesus’ public ministry, Joseph seems to have passed from the scene. Although Mary is mentioned several times in the gospels, Joseph is never mentioned after the incident of twelve-year-old Jesus in the temple (Luke 2:42-52).
How old were Joseph and his wife when they had Jesus?
How old was Mary when she had Jesus,” the answer is that Mary was relatively young in age but mature in faith. Mary put her faith in action by pushing past her fear and moving forward with what God called her to do.
Still related to the question, Dr. Black proposes a few vlogs back about Mary, age, and her body.
I wholeheartedly disagree with this whole conversation. Jesus is the same yesterday, and forever. Do not be carried by strange doctrine.
Greetings all! God is omnipresent, omniscience, omnipotent. God dont make mistakes, man does. Why do we think we know what God would or would not do….. man’s arrogance!
So upon listening to your video. I am humbly asking, Is Dr. Black saying that God grows and is in need of growth as humans do grow and are in need of growth also?
Bible refers to God as perfect, the word perfect in the Greek is "teleios", it means "Complete"
One needs to learn to "Exegesis Scripture": bringing out the meaning of the scriptures and NOT to
"Eisegesis Scripture": adding your own opinion to the scriptures
Sis God has never been revised. We were originally lied to about who we are are who God is to us.
THAT IS the big secret to this whole entire thing and it ties into the book of revelation.
The truth will not be revised or changed.
This is precisely why them folks are afraid of woke.
Umgawa. ✊🏾
The conversation is about US and HOW WE change God.
@@KarenHunterShow Peace and blessings sis.
I’m going to share with you what God Himself has to say about that, to us as a ppl, out of the book we as a ppl claim to believe:
……………………………
(Presented as a scholastic citation.)
Malachi 3:
5. “For I am the LORD,
I change not;
therefore
ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.”
………………………….
WE were changed. OUR mindset was changed. OUR culture was hidden.
We are in the process of recovering what belongs to us. We are awakening.
And God remains the same. He is not a concept. We have zero control over what He does. His word will not return to Him void. He is The Maker and The Owner.
That scares some ppl.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Apologetics are counter to logic. He drank the koolaid
There have been Theologians throughout History that believe that The God in the Old Testament isnt the same God as in the New Testament..Old Testament God was more willing to punish and show his wrath whereas New Testament God was more Loving and forgiving. Read Theologian Marcion of Sinope his readings are interesting 🤔🤔🤔
Come on Dr Black, revelate,I 4:18 I think GOD allows us to grow, ever learning and coming into the knowledge of GOD
GOD Is
Which god?
@@nsudatta-roy8154 Does not matter, they all lead to the Divine Essence within ourselves after we grow and evolve through many incarnations.
I guess Eve is forgiven for picking and eating that fruit. This brother is talking nonsense. There are so many points where he needed to be challenged.
why challenge. Take or don't take what he is saying. if you don't agree, move on.
@@KarenHunterShow Challenge is necessary. If everyone chose to not engage in your content, your platform, like any other on YT, would materially, cease to exist.

@@nsudatta-roy8154 very good...so like Christ.
Ummm... with love and respect no sir. #1 The Bible says Mary consented "let it be as you say". #2 We need to stop making excuses for a flawed religion. To take your answer is to blasphemy and contradiction, which is still against the rules. The question is dose it contradict? Yes. It does. Does contradiction go against the claim of perfection? Yes. Is that wrong? Yes. It has to be. It is the truth and it hurts. But the sooner we deal with it, the better. I had to go through this journey by myself. It destroyed me... twice. My whole life was ministry and the church. But it is what it is. I'm here for those who are taking the journey or just want truth. Nobody should go thru it alone.
Wouldn’t that be an argument that there is no divine creator, that it’s all cause and effect (evolution)? It feels like what Dr. Black is doing is making up methods to have it both ways which is very common in religion. To stay in it you have to do all kinds of mental gymnastics, making up ways to follow a logic. Ironically, much of this involves throwing out logic and making up rules. “A thing has to be flawed and still be wonderful”. Why?? Says who?? “I think god grows”. Where is that?? It’s all reaching. If you study anthropology and human brain size you’ll find our brains were on a growth trend when we were hunter gatherers until the agricultural period. Once we started eating grains and setting our brains stopped growing and started shrinking and we started having various metabolic disorders. Where is the god in that design, where human actions impact human growth in a negative way but it’s god’s design of growth, to make things better, when shrinking brain size and disease makes us worse? Uh oh, I think I just helped someone argue for the eventual extinction of humans as a part of “the plan”. lol 😂 🤦🏾♀️. And yet, a little girl was impregnated against her free will. The issue still remains. Free will seems to only work for those making bad choices. The rest of us just have bad things happen to us, AGAINST our will.
3:18 Nah, no matter how you slight and dice it: “God is Perfect, God is light, and in him there is no darkness - none at all!” Any other concept is nothing more than exaggerated man called god, the world mind the ruler of this world of form and matter. Let no man with breath in his nostrils, no matter what title or regalia they have, deceive you.
I don’t know if I can accept Dr. Black’s explanation about God’s own growth and thereby his/it’s ability to move through our existence adjusting things as he it sees fit. It isn’t clear.
Are we making excuses for the inconsistencies in the Bible? One wrong thing in the book doesn’t dismiss everything else, but it does give pause to our interpretation of bible as well as how theologians espouse truth mixed with suppositions.
Man has already decided how and why we should consider the Bible as our Judeo Christian foundation, and it’s often based as the final word. We should ask questions of a bible that reveal inconsistencies; a blueprint created to influence people and behaviors.
Sometimes there are things we can’t explain, and that’s ok.
you don't have to. It's food for thought. Do you believe he hasn't studied that which he speaks extensively?
@@KarenHunterShow I believe that he has extensive knowledge on the topic, and I listen to what he says, often prophetic, but in this case things are not as clear as he often
is. I usually get him, not this time!
@@MariaAlvarez-mn9nd It's okay. Sit with it. If it doesn't resonate, this message isn't for you. And that's okay. We are all on our own unique journey and we all have our OWN relationship with the Most High!
NO!
adamant...
Professor Karen is Doctor Black saying we are like the little white mice "humans" and the Scientist "God" test things on us to see how we will respond.
no. He is seeing that WE make God...in OUR image...instead of seeing it the other way.
@@KarenHunterShow Thank you Professor Karen. In all honesty we can't see God in all it's divinity because nobody really understands what Divinity really is. All I can do as a human is see God in nature and in other humans. We don't even know what Satan really is, I can see wickedness in how we as humans "choose" to deal with others and how injustice is heaped upon the marginalized and monetary reward is granted to the privilege. I have experienced the grace, mercy and kindness of the Divine and I have experienced the nastiness of wickedness which caused me to grow and become a better version of my higher self and people can testify the bad experiences have caused them to be better versions of themself and at times it created a demon on earth so I say all that to say nobody know what God truly is.
@@micheleholley1070 exactly. That's why there are billions of versions of God and once we see GOD in one another, God will be fully seen.
🤦🏾♂️he's moving the goal post
God is a Man of War, he’s not always loving, he’s a Just, and Balance God. The problem is, A lot of Pastor don’t keep knowledge, they keep Lies and Religion and the Bible don’t teach that, to My Israelites brothers and sisters please Read the Bible. And Mary had Baby Jesus by her husband Joseph. Think logically Black Man and not like the Esau
my God is always loving, always nurturing, always there, never fails.
Yessss !!!!!!!!!
@@KarenHunterShow God thought Ain’t Nobody else though, God Don’t Play about Is Nation of Gods who are Israelite, today known as Negro, Hispanic and Native.
Let God Speak:
”The LORD is a man of war: The LORD is his name. Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea. The depths have covered them: They sank into the bottom as a stone. Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: Thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.“
Exodus 15:3-6 KJV
Please don’t try and judge the Bible it judges you. There is no one who can win that battle, all has failed and will fail.
GOD ALL READY KNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN BEFORE IT HAPPENED , DR BLACK WAS WRONG ON THIS ONE , WHEN GOD CREATED SOMETHING HE SAID IT WAS GOOD.
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.
The Birth of Jesus was prophecied by the Prophet Isaiah 700 years before the Angel Gabriel appeared to the Virgin Mary.
The Virgin Birth was a fullfillment of scripture
Luke 1:26-38
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Also: Old Testament GOD is not New Testament GOD
hmm. so God changed? evolved?
I don't think god grows at all. Humanities discernment of what God is through experience is a significant part of what this human journey is about. We cannot make this journey collectively. It's an individual journey that takes tremendous effort and willingness to be transformed to know beyond all doubt, what God truly is...which is that we're truly a part of God. "Be still and know that I am God."
The word Christian does not belong in the Bible because the Bible says it does not belong. The word of Yeshua God has to come out of his mouth. No one else okay, The word has to be established in the mouth of two or three witnesses no lees and you have to divide the word rightly no man can divide the word rightly so you are going to know how to use the Bible so that it has to divide the word rightly for you. Because no man can divide the word rightly, but the word has no problem dividing the word right. What man knows a man except the spirit of the man?
Dr. Black is speaking the fact of things. Everything!
Sounds good but Nope on the Mary and the birth of Jesus. Please read Luke chapter one. Mary gave consent. There are things in the Bible that a prescriptive and some descriptive. The Bible does not condone everything in it. It’s for our learning. Having multiple wives is descriptive, there isn’t a story in the Bible where someone having multiple wives worked out great for them.
This is disturbing. This non-believer has removed the very foundation of who The Most High Is and inserted his version of who he would like The Creator of the heavens and the earth to be. He has brought The Highest down to his level and given Him a place with creation. God's People perish for a lack of knowledge because they reject God's Knowledge and go about thinking they are wiser and that they can and actually have the right to interpret what He Is saying without His Spirit, which one must have to receive from Elohim, The Most High God. The God of The Bible does not lie because Truth cannot lie and He was not lying when He said that heaven and earth shall all pass away, but His Word shall stand. We must be very, very careful mettling with The Word of The Great God Yahovah. He don't play that and He has already stated what happens to people who mislead His sheep
who is a nonbeliever here?
@@KarenHunterShow The guy on the screen.
@@LaverneRivers he's not a non-believer.
So much blasphemy!🤦🏾
no blasphemy!
Yes, Dr. Black, God changes with each century..
