When Ben Shapiro Got HUMBLED About Jesus
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- William Lane Craig and Ben Shapiro talked about Jesus. They looked at what Jewish people thought the Messiah would be like, if Jesus really came back to life, and why Jesus was killed. Ben had to think about how Jesus is described in the Bible, which made him think about his own beliefs as a Jewish person.

Wondering what facts about Jesus William Lane Craig is talking about? Watch this:

Jewish people generally don't regard freedom fighters under roman rule as "common criminals". They're wrong on Jesus, but Ben's take is quite positive for coming from a non-believing perspective
What is keeping Ben Shapiro from seeing the truth is no different than the reason they couldn’t see it then, when Jesus Christ walked this earth! Pride!!!
I come into agreement with your prayer and believe! In the name of Yeshua Hamashiach! Amen, Amen! 🙏🙌❤️🇨🇦

I think you're a commendable kid, Jaiden. But I wonder if you will answer this question, and all commenters are welcome to as well:
I am assuming you are a Protestant brother in Christ. I am a Catholic. If I can't convince you to become Catholic, or vice versa, how can you (we) fault others for not becoming Christians? See John 17:21-24 "I (Jesus) pray that they may be ONE, as YOU (God) and I (Jesus) are ONE...that they may believe that you sent Me" Are all Christians ONE?
@@jiherrera7418 Thank you brother!
Well, based off scripture I don't think we can fault others for not becoming Christians. Romans 9 declares that no one can be saved without God's mercy (specifically verse 9:16).
I believe all Christians are children of God, Christians meaning those with lasting faith in Jesus Christ alone to save them.
God has hardened the hearts of Jews for our sake, once the Gentile Dispensation is over and the Bride Saints(Not the Saved) are whisked away in the blink of an eye to the Wedding Supper, God will turn his focus back on Israel(Jacob) and deal with them as a Nation. He will send his two Prophets to preach in the streets in Jerusalem where they will be slain dead, and after 3 days of their bodies lying in the square, God will resurrect them and only then will Jews (of Jacob) be Converted and Understand that Jesus is Messiah.
What I like most about William Lane Craig is that there isn't an ounce of pride or arrogance in his tone. Just passion. A true Christian.
I saw it too. He's the real deal
Didn’t see your last sentence until I opened your comment. My intention was to write exactly what you wrote. A true Christina in its form, the one who brings others to God through being a real follower of God in the form of love for all people.
He tells the truth and humbles non believers. I don't think Ben Shapiros book smart could handle the truth ...
His patience is a virtue. A great example for everybody. "it's not what you say, it's how you say it".
What’s funny is so many atheists say he is smug and condescending lol
When your answer to facts about the Messiah is “I don’t care. They’re really boring” then you have valued your own pride over the most important truth in life.
Well said.
This is true, but im not convinced ben was doing that. He tends in these interviews to get the interviewee to speak freely about his views, and doesnt tend to argue too much, just challenge them will questions to bring out the interviewee's points. It is a different format from a debate.
What facts? There are words in a book and there is belief in those words but believing something does not automatically make it true. It has nothing to do with pride or an important truth. Without genuine evidence, it is everyone's right to choose to beleive or not. Shapiro and the majority of the world's population choose not to beleive.
@@theoutspokenhumanist My approach is similar but more nuanced, of course stating dogmatically "truth" based on a book is meaningless in itself. However, we have to know what is the basis of the truth of the said book. How strong is the chain of custody, how much is explicit or clear in the book and what is interpretation. Based on our knowledge of the book would we reaosnably expect there to be independent corroboration, and if so where is it?
I find intuitively that a lot of these comments are made by people who have a desire to believe and come off as similar to cult members, totally unquestioning and dogmatic. However this isn't a reason in itself to reject what these people say.
@@theoutspokenhumanist , What facts? Obviously this is a subject that you haven’t researched at all. Perhaps you should read Gary Habermas’ new book. Then you will understand that there are many facts and the number of people who believe something or not has absolutely no effect on truth. Most people, like you, have put zero effort into researching the resurrection and the facts supporting it. At very least watch one of Gary Habermas’ videos on the resurrection.
You can wake a man who's sleeping, but you cannot wake a man who's pretending to be asleep.
I can tell be Ben Shapiro 's answer that he is not a serious student of the bible..
that his synagogue
is more like a social club..that he has lived a very sheltered life..
Israel does not allow Amazon or Kindle &
books that would cost $20 here would be
$8,000 over there.
@@charlesmargolin2226 Right! He is culturally influenced and a believer in what he was taught...so even if he chooses to try to understand what WLC is saying about historical actions of Jesus, it would take some time for him to come to terms with the possibility, because he would be going against what he has accepted as truth, so far. Evolving consciousness takes some time & effort....and risks being rejected by many people in his world.
William Lane Craig kept saying that God raised Jesus from the dead. which is true..
that the Father & the Holy Spirit worked together to
bring Christ up from the grave..but Christ also raised Himself to bring himself Christ up from the grave.. Jesus said.."destroy This body & in 3 days, I will raise It up". speaking of His own spirit..
& power to raise Himself up.
Shapiros fast talking whiny voice ain’t fooling me, he’s a bad bad man.. got a lot of people fooled esp boomers
Oh trust me you can....a bucket of ice water not expecting it...doesn't matter how hard you are you're jumping up
Man it's so impressive to see the youth following Jesus Christ
yes but he shouldn't put words in BEN's mouth. Ben isn't an IDOL WORSHIPPER who doesn't believe in a SAVIOR because GOD is the only saviour of man. And for Jews, having a statue of Jesus everywhere is the REAL IDOLATRY.
It's a true consolation to me that this young man truly believes Jesus is the King. If any critique, I would caution the judge analogy, I think that's not well worded and can lead one to believe that God holds our sin against us despite our contrition
@@MsElke11So the Son of God isn't also the savior? That is not the case. The Messiah is referred to as the savior. Idol worship can be physical or it can be immaterial. Anyone who is adulterous to God whether that be through direct or indirect worship of things that are not God are worshipping their idols. If they love that thing more than God's own nature exemplified through Jesus Christ, then they are adulterers to God on the account given by his Son. God has always been good and only good, the lying wonders performed on the Earth in the sight of men dissuaded men away from God. This was stated in the letters of Paul in reference to the Old Testament events of fire from the sky and other destructive "miracles". Everyone is under this same veil since Moses, and will continue to be until the truth in Christ is revealed to them and that veil over their hearts is lifted. From the agreement made with the serpent in the garden to the agreement made on mount Sinai, the authorship is the same and his work through serpents has been the same. Whether that serpent is of fire, bronze, or flesh.
How is it impressive, all humans should follow Christ
It's sad to see that ppl still believe all these fairy tails
Further, not only did the apostles have a complete reversal in their understanding of the resurrection of Christ. They also gave their lives for his witness. No one does that for a lie.
I once debated my friend (he is religious, I am not) and that was his main point. First, there is no proof that these men gave their lives so adamantly for Jesus. Second, even if they did, that does not in any way correlate to the existence of God. They could’ve been mental health, tricked, lied, hallucinated, etc…
In fact, there is zero evidence whatsoever to support the existence of God. People use God to fill in the blanks that science could fill (with explanation) given enough time.
@@alphaapex3663 Christians were being killed and put to death in the early times, thats why they're called martyrs, a Pharisee called Saul condemned Christians before but he too turned Christian when Jesus showed up to him, asking why he persecutes him, he literally back down to his status and preached the Word, he was also put to death
and seriously you have a lot of faith in science
@@alphaapex3663math says that it’s more likely an intelligent creator made this world over a big bang. History says Jesus was crucified, buried, and his tomb was found empty. Atheist can’t deny these facts.
@@alphaapex3663theres plenty of hard evidence of Christ that science has tried to explain but can’t. Take the relic of Saint Juan Diego's Tilma which contains the miraculous imprint of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
I would HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to look into this story and the studies that have been on this cloth, science has zero way of explaining how this piece of cloth could contain such detail not to mention surviving in such pristine condition all these centuries later.
If you ask me it’s very compelling evidence for those who may need tangible proof.
Some may do it for a lie but not if they know it's a lie.

The seven deadly sins aren’t biblical.
I believe Ben hit it on the head when he said that Jesus does not fit the Jewish narrative of who they believe the Messiah will be. That is the whole point. Jesus came to fulfill God the Father's plan, not man's plan. That is why the Jewish leaders and the people rejected Jesus. He would not fit their narrative or their plans for who the Messiah should be.
I don't think all Jews rejected Jesus but mainly the power structure hiarchy of the day
Good point, but it should also be pointed out that popular Jewish conception of the Messiah as a political or military leader who would conquer Israel’s enemies was not simply based on their own wishes or even on the fact that Israel was then under harsh Roman occupation, but on the writings of the Old Testament prophets. The religious scholars in Judaism were aware that the books of the prophets gave two very different descriptions of the coming Messiah-one of a suffering servant and one as a conquering king. Most Jewish people understood and naturally placed their hope in the descriptions of Messiah as a conquering king rather than those of the suffering servant. Messiah as a suffering servant. Later Jewish scholars resolved this tension in the role of the Messiah by positing that the prophets spoke of two messiahs-Messiah son of Joseph, who would be a suffering servant, and Messiah son of David, who would be a conquering king. By contrast, Christians from the beginning interpreted the prophets as speaking of one Messiah who would come twice-first as the suffering servant, and the second time as the conquering king, which is still future, but which can rightly be understood as similar to what the popular Jewish expectations of the Messiah would have been in the first century.
@@cbtam4333 Excellent! You have explained it perfectly. It's a shame that they can't get on board and recognize now what they are still too proud to have recognized then. The gig is up.
Exactly! They wanted another King David.
Ben has a lot of knowledge but needs wisdom.
SO HAPPY TO SEE A YOUNGER PERSON LIKE YOURSELF DEFENDING JESUS.
Yes, we need more young people like you
That’s what I was thinking too .its lovely .
Yes, I am so pleased to see an enthusiastic young man like you discussing such theological debate between two popular figures about our Lord Jesus Christ. In fact, it is very crucial because when Jews come back to their senses , it is the second coming. Wow 😳, we all seek this day. God bless you young thinker .
Right!!!?!🙌🙌💯👏❤️
FAAAAAACCCTTTSSSS
As a nation, I think the Jews missed Jesus because they were looking for a political figure rather than a saving from sin figure.
Isaiah 53:1-5
Dumdum not all Jews missed Jesus because some of his followers were Jews.
@Wise__guy he's actually talking the fake ones and True Elites: Revelation 2:9
I mean that's exactly what they thought the messiah would be, someone who would restore the kingdom and free them from Gentile rule.
@@Wise__guy most of the followers were Jews … at the time
That is exactly spot on...Even some of his followers thought it was an earthly Kingdom/Messiah pretty long into his ministry.
Let's pray for Ben Shapiro. He needs Jesus's love and light. I believe that such a person like Ben can inspire the whole Israel to accept Christ
lol , nah 😂🤣
ben shapiro?? bro you can't be serious 😂
there ain't none so blind as those who will not open up their own two eyes and see
you're crazy 😂
Getting baptized tomorrow with family in front of 800 people so nervous but ready to tell the world I love Jesus and trust in him. He is the way the truth and the light. No one gets to the father except thru him.
Had 3 months to live with stage 4b cancer 2 years ago. Went cancer free for 13 months with small recurrence. Md anderson,Mayo,siteman, 11 of top places still can't believe. Had to do 22 rounds of 3 chemos and surgery but 50 percent disappeared the week I got on my knees. 24 spots at age 35 it was bad told I wouldn't survive 1 round of chemo.
May God bless you and your heart
Amen 🙏🏽
Update?
I love hearing that you found God through the Son! He WILL heal and give life and give it abundantly! I will pray for you and I'm happy to call you a brother in Christ!
@themaestro5946 just did chemo this weekend round 3 technically 23 if you add from 3 month diagnosis. My surgeon in California says it's small 2cm size of penny that my local people here can most likely easily treat with thermal ablation. I'm doing chemo every two weeks and having liver spot taken off on may 24th. I appreciate you all so very much. If there are ever more than one person praying he is there and I think he is there if it's just one but the more prayers really help me. Thankyou all.
2000 years ago, and they are still talking about him. ❤
Dang right Katherine! It makes ya think.
Exactly
Everyday!!! Jesus is the Truth, the Light, and the Way. Forgive me Jesus ❤
Do you think the deciples would of went through the deaths the did just so they could agree Jesus was who he was. That's hard one to believe 🙏
We changed the way we counted time because of Him!
BC: Before Christ
AD: Anno Domini, Latin for "In the year of our Lord Jesus Christ"
I, myself, refuse to use the new paganistic substitution of BCE, "Before the Common Era", and CE, the "Common Era".
Please remember this on New Year's Day!
To Ben's credit, he's very good at letting others talk. He's very respectful. It will take a personal encounter with Jesus to change his position. Kudos to both men for a calm discourse. That speaks volumes to me.
Yes, I had these same thoughts.
I thought so too Ben for most part respectful. However, I have/do watch Ben frequently this video was profoundly telling. I found Ben's silence to be ... deep thought...having determined currently NO intelligent, credible response coming to mind ... clearly loss for words. Let's call it for what it is ....rude to say "disinterested". Ben would of called his guest out on that. I also noted Ben's speech was noticeably slower in the overall convo.
I do believe God's mighty hands at work❤
You also have to take into account not just Jesus doesn't fit the accepted ideology, but historically Jews have been extremely mistreated by Roman Christianity (modern Christianity)- The Jewish Jesus has been stolen and so changed that He isn't even recognizable by Jews.
Also Jews do not believe theybare working their way to heaven they believe in Grace, Grace predates Christianity and is a part of Judaisim.
The struggle you see Ben going through is multifaceted, first though shalt have no other Gods before you, second Christianity has adopted many pagan ideologies not apart of the original church, the ham sandwich thought process in Christianity that Jews must become like us to be saved, and last family and community. Judaisim isn't just religion it is family, and community and actually a reverence for Hashem that most Christians don't have.
So ya, there is an inner turmoil but it isn't one most of us could even begin to grasp.
A great place to start would be, I am so sorry for what the church has taken from you, this wasn't yeshua, it was man.
I love Ben Shapiro. But, it would take him humbling himself, in order to have a personal experience with Christ. Then he could have an experience everyday. I truly hope he does.
@@classicalgas8297 personal experience with Jesus, with God? Really? Isn't you being alive by God's grace alone enough???

Please explain when and how Jesus proved he was God. And I shall need more than just words in a book.
@LeaveChildrenAlone83 I respect your right to hold your own beleifs but surely you are not serious with what you have just said? You are joking, yes? 😂
1. Our timeline is based on Jesus simply because it is a tradition begun by Christians. Other calendars exist.
2. The events of history would have happened even if we had a different calendar. Pick any historical event and it has a different date when spoken of by Jews, or Muslims, or Hindus.
3. Jesus spoke of Noah because Jesus was a Jew and knew Jewish scripture. It doesn't mean the scripture is true.
4. There is absolutely zero evidence for a worldwide flood and only charlatans pretend there is. Please do not beleive them.
You have every right to be a Christian but please try to be a thinking Christian.
💯
Look up Eucharistic miracles and healings/miracles of the saints. 😁
@@theoutspokenhumanistthere have been many catastrophic floods, not just 1
The entire context is what is so convincing to me. Jesus wasn't just some guy claiming this or that. He taught thousands. He healed un-healable ailments. His own disciples were skeptical at first...yet his actions convinced them. He preached peace....yet adherence to God. He predicted his suffering and his resurrection. And the witnesses not only claimed to have witnessed Him, but put their lives on the line to preach His gospel. Very convincing.
Not to mention that the disciples were themselves executed for teaching the Gospel. The Tribe of Judah certainly has not lost the stiffness in it's neck...
@@cptcosmoAs the Bible states
You said it all!
But there is no good evidence for any of that because we don't even have any first hand accounts or anything from his lifetime...
Ben says he went up against the Romans and was killed, but that's a big lie, Jesus Christ went up against the Pharisees and challenged their teachings & practices, showing them out to be the biggest hypocrites. It was his words that found no place in them for he spoke with authority, and his doctrine & revelation made him to be accused of blasphemy, as he was God in the flesh. The hypocrite Pharisees called for his death & the Romans executed it.
Answering your question about the revolt (around 5:30) the craziest thing about Jesus is that besides claiming his divinity, his message and ministry was full of mercy, forgiveness, repentance, and changing your heart. No one would ever lead a revolt by saying “love your enemy”. This has always humbled me so much. God has done the most amazing things that no human could ever conceive.
Unrelenting Compassion is at the core of God's will in the form of Jesus.
Excelente point
Pharisees hated Jesus for doing GOOD! Not use power, didn't come from Kingly or high official, or Pharisee . Jesus came through a lineage of such, but didn't use that, he was a humble man and though God's Son, he didn't grasp after those things which were rightfully his.
If you actually believe in the Bible then you truly are just skipping the Old Testament and either way him being someone who let a revolt does not necessarily mean killing. And destroying evil is not a sin such as Jesus did when he got mad the one time in the Bible where he tossed aside the money being used for profit from sales in a holy place. That is a revolt and you are taking the words of today's bias and assuming that as a negative connotation. The only way to ever bring a new religion is to revolt against the old and imagine a picketing or a protest today that is peaceful and that is another definition of a Revolt but not violent. You dying for your troubles of trying to spread the good word is extremely risky and terrible in the perception of the Roman eyes of that day and time in that region. They wanted stability and he was unwilling to allow people using God's name as a way to make money and be corrupt. And he did try to spread the word many of times by preaching in front of crowds which was actually part of what they considered the revolt which he did first.
@jeffgrove6568 I know you are ignorant of anything to do with History or scriptures, and translations. KJV was finished in 1611, we have many other versions prior to that and they coincide with that Version. So you lie. Dead Sea Scrolls support the O T passages . N.T. supported by hundreds of not thousands of codexes and fragments. Noah's Ark has been seen and is recorded in bear every culture on earth, the stories vary in regions, based on verbal passing of info, but support a worldwide flood. Growth statistics support current populations from that date.
Watching a fake Jew (Jew-ish) try to disregard Christ is crazy to me. The true Hebrew/Jew knows Christ.
I just love this I’m a jewish follower of Jesus! God bless you from Israel. Let’s pray that Ben’s eyes to be opened.
Amen! May Jesus reveal Himself to Ben as the true Messiah 🙏🏾
That's absolutely awesome!
How do you get treated in Israel for being a christian?
Yes sir , pray for Ben.
Ben is a deeply religious Jew. He is scholarly about his religion. I don’t always agree with his political views, but I have deep respect for his studies. It’s offensive to be disrespectful and condescending to want him to find Christ. What happened to respecting different beliefs?
The irony in this is that a Christian Nation ended up reestablishing Israel and giving Jews back their promise land.
Christ is King. He’s chill like that.
It’s our holy land yet we allow the Muslims and Hebrews to squabble over it.

When I say paganism, I mean idolaters. Those who worship creations instead of the Creator.
What Christians can never answer is the fact that God did appear in front of the entire nation of Israel by the giving of the Torah. He wants them to accept it.
He said "Do not have any other gods". He didn't say "except for the man that rises from the dead".
Why didn't God appear in front of all jews to tell them to accept Jesus like he did by the Torah??
No answer.
@@testingdafapp1159 First, God never appeared in form before Israel. John (1:18) makes it perfectly clear that "No man hath seen God at any time..." However, that same verse continues with "the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him." Declared him may be phrased "has made him known." The writer of Hebrews (1:1-3) is stated in like manner, "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power..."
He did appear "in front of all jews" of his day and most did not accept him as the Old Testament God in the flesh, Peter declared him to be so as recorded by Matthew (16:16), and of course the others. Paul writing to Titus (2:11), reads, "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men..." How was that grace revealed?
Back to where we started, John 1 (10-18)
"He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him."
The prophets had spoken of his coming and when he came most of the folks, just like today, missed him. He reveals himself to those who look, honestly look.
NOBODY will get to the Father except through the Son.
Amen Amen!!!
Nothing exist without the female. Virgin Mary is mythology. No Jesus in real history...only current belief of followers. Mohammed too!
Why can't we have a direct relationship with the father? Did Moses and Abraham go through the son?
It is only symbolic. Father is the God Osiris. Preserved on the wall in Egypt. Spiritual body led the the Judgement seat of Osiris. ..

@@peaceandfood7952aw it wants attention.
It's always been interesting to me that Ben rarely says "I believe...", rather he says something like "The traditional Jewish belief is...". This nuance leads me to believe that there's a part of him that knows Jesus is the Messiah, and he wants to distance himself from criticism of Christianity "in case" it is true. I too pray for his salvation.
Or he is simply a fake jew like all Zionists!!
It’s just better for the debate to stay “factual” rather than to talk about what one man believes.
Ben talks about Christianity and especially the Catholic Church alot. I think he may believe as well but just can't bring himself to leave his Jewish faith, traditions, and culture
I often wonder if I would’ve recognized Jesus as Messiah if I lived back then. Thank you Jesus for creating me for a time such as this where I do believe and I do know you, recognize you for what and who you are ❤
Do you think you would so casually dismiss the Messiah after witnessing His miracles? ✝️
Right, I think that's the reason why there are so many people who believe today due to the pewho saw the works back than
@@brendabadih8855yes, John 12:40 and also John 12:37 confirms this. But it's not impossible of course.
*The Law and Prophets Are The Oil (Holy Spirit) Needed In Your Lamps: They are the Light of Jesus
Once blind, I now see! I am a 72 year old Christian father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who was once the chief among sinners. But what Satan meant for evil in me, Yahweh used for good to confound the wise and mighty in this world. (1Co 1:27) Now, the prayers of thanksgiving and praise are always upon my lips and tongue! I am a Gentile by physical birth but a Jew, and Lion's whelp, reborn in the Holy Spirit of Father Yahweh: grafted into the
natural (good) Olive Tree, Messiah Jesus, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Whom bears my name in the breastplate, heart, and ephod of His righteous judgement, the Urim (Law) and Thummim (Prophets, Spirit), the Lights OF perfection! These two righteous witnesses and lots that are cast continuously upon me and all Jesus' Disciples, the learned, whom bear record of Jesus in earth as He is in heaven. (Ex 28:29, Prov 3:3) Christians are priests of our most High Priest, Jesus Messiah of Nazareth. Christians are the church: temples and dedicated temple keepers of heavenly Father's Word and Holy Spirit. They are witnesses of heavenly Father's only begotten here on earth! Jesus is that free gift of grace received through faith in Messiah our Deliverer and confirmation of Father, God, our Triune Creator! (Eph 2:8, Gal 4:6) Christians live and walk, in earth, bearing witness to His Word and Spirit, in One which are One in the heavenly record of: 1. Father, 2. Son (Word/Immanuel) (Isa 7:14, 8:8, Jhn 1:14), and 3. Holy Spirit. (1Jhn 5:6-8) Through baptism: (our ritual washing) by the water (of repentance), blood of atonement (justification by faith) and Holy Spirit (of sanctification and renewal in regeneration), Christians are followers of Jesus: crucifying the evil lust of the flesh in "hatred, Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, disputing, wrath, strife, resistance to the Law of Father God, heresies, envyings (ambitions to equal or excel others), murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like." (Gal 5:19-21) Through His Holy Spirit, we deny this flesh by keeping His Commands as we live and walk in the hope of our soon coming redemption and resurrection to life everlasting. This is our daily priestly offering, in worship and fear, reverence, through an offering of fire to God the Father and it is the first fruits: our living sacrifice of service. (Lev 3:3) This is our "worship in the beauty of holiness" in all:
1. Love
2. Joy
3. Peace
4. Longsuffering
5. Gentleness
6. Goodness
7. Faith
8. Meekness
9. Temperance
Towards God and fellow man!
"Against such fruit as this, there is no Law." (Gal 5:22-25) We have heard the Truth of God! "Wherefore the Law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto the Gospel, Messiah Jesus, through repentance, that we might be justified through faith in His precious shed blood. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster but the indwelling hope and patience of the Holy Spirit. As was our daddy, Abraham, Christians are circumcised through faith in the Word of God: Jesus Messiah, the fulfillment of Heavenly Father's everlasting covenant, to Israel, on Mount Moriah! (1Ch 16: 16-17 , Psa 105:8-10) "For we (Christians) are all the children of God by faith in Messiah Jesus." (Gal 3: 26) "For the fruit of the Spirit, is in all goodness righteousness and truth." (Eph 5:9) "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross (this sinful flesh), and follow me" by Crucifying the works of this flesh: keeping the Commandments of God is our living sacrifice that is holy, acceptable, and reasonable service (worship), in Spirit and Truth to a loving and faithful Creator/Savior, in whom we all were created for His pleasure! (Jhn 4:23-24, Rom 12:1, Rev 4:11) Again, For a testimony and witness, as One here in earth, Christians have received by grace and through faith (Eph 2:8) from the sacrificial death of His Testator, Jesus, two witnesses of Father's fulfillment of that covenant to daddy Abraham. (Gen 15, Heb 9:16-17, 11:8-10, For as it is written, "Mercy (Spirit) and Truth (Law) are met together; righteousness (Law) and peace (Spirit) have kissed each other" (Psa 85:10)within our souls, to conceive a new and born again creature: circumcised of that fleshy foreskin of an evil heart! (Deu 10:16, 30:6, Jer 4:4,17:9, Jhn 3:3) Let your light shine brothers and sisters in Christ! (Mat 5:16) To the Law and to the Testimony (Spirit/Prophets), if they speak not according to this WORD (COVENANT, JESUS), it is because there is no light in them." (Isa 8:20, Jhn 8:12, Rom 3:21) Dear readers, do you have a form of godliness but are walking in this flesh and denying the power thereof? (2 Ti 3:5) Do you want the faith of a mustard seed that removes mountains? (Mat 17:20) "The mystery (power) of faith is held in a pure conscience" (1Ti 3:9): a heart that can approach the Holy of Holies (Throne of God) without shame having been found free of evil (wilfull sin against Father God and fellow man), by the Holy Spirit (2 Ch 29:31). Now dear brothers and sisters, Disciples of Messiah Jesus filled with the joy and patience of the Holy Spirit, let's do what Father has ordained of us and speak truth with our new cloven tongues of fire (Law and Testimony)! (Acts 2:3) "Bind up the testimony, seal the law among My disciples." (Isa 8:16) This is the oil Jesus spoke of in the "Parable of the Ten Virgins." (Mat 25:1-13) Study to show thyself approved, Pray without ceasing (2 Ti 2:15, 1Sa 12:23, 1Th 5:17) and present this everlasting Gospel of the Kingdom to those Father is calling and placing into our realm of influence: those with ears ready to hear this Gospel message of faith (hearing/ believing is accounted unto them for righteousness), conversion by Father God and new birth in the Holy Spirit! Our Creator, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, stepped down from Divinity to show His great love towards His Creation. Yahweh took upon Himself the form of a servant, the likeness of men, in Jesus Messiah of Nazareth, that through His righteous shed blood in death, burial and resurrection, He crucified our sins, the works of the flesh and in so doing defeated, once and for all, death and the grave! (Jhn 15:13) We did not choose to be born into this earth and its circumstance only to continue this pagan cycle of procreation towards our children destined to go round and round that growing mountain of unforgiven sin, in this wilderness of life wewithout true Manna from heaven, Jesus Messiah. We are given choice! Choose life through faith in His grace (Loving, blood sacrifice) and follow Jesus in the first resurrection to life instead of death in the second resurrection! "The mystery of faith (power of faith) s held in a pure conscience" (1 Ti 3:9), a heart and conscience found free, by the Holy Spirit, of wilfull sin against Father God and fellow man. Rededicate your temple! Repent in the name of Jesus for the pardon of sin so that you may worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth! Choose life everlasting in this Gospel of the Kingdom! Call upon Jesus Messiah of Nazareth: the One true living God. (Jhn 3:16-19) Amen

Prove it.
Jesus is a cursed Jew that’s laying in boiling semen for claiming himself
By that same logic, it’s impressive that the Jewish people have stayed true to their firm belief in one God, for some 2000 years LONGER than Christians; since the time of Abraham.
For Jewish people, anyone who claims to be God is in direct violation of the 10 Commandments. There is no room for for argument on that. This is why Ben Shapiro had no interest in beating a dead horse on a point that is completely nonnegotiable to Jews. Throughout history, thousands of Jews have chosen death rather than idolatry when forced to convert by oppressors and Nazis.
Anyone can claim to be God. Jews remained steadfast that all humans are equally the children of God, regardless of their faith. When the messianic redemption happens, it will be completely obvious to 100% of humanity- not just a handful of people who claim that somebody’s tomb is empty. There will be no confusion or debate. It will simply be a clear revelation to all.

Ben understands that a significant number of his allies are Christians and this a a vast segment of America that he dares not alienate. Yes, there are Jews who will happily insult Christians and shrug off any sort of alliance or assistance but Ben is not one of them.

I had a near death experience and met God while undergoing 18 rounds of chemotherapy in 6 days before getting a stem cell transplant.

I 100% know that we all meet him before fully going over or being sent back. I asked to come back to be a good dad to my 4 children

Chemotherapy treatment is usually given in cycles, which are periods of treatment followed by rest periods. The length of a cycle depends on the drugs used and the treatment plan, and can range from a few hours to a few days, or even weeks. For example, a cycle might involve treatment on the first, second, and third days of a week, followed by no treatment for the rest of the week. The rest period allows the body to recover and rebuild healthy cells.
Cancer Research UK
Your chemotherapy plan | Cancer Research UK
During a course of chemotherapy, you usually have around 4 to 8 cycles of treatment. After each round of treatment you have a break. This allows your body to recover. For example, if your cycle lasts 4 weeks, you may have treatment on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd days. You then have nothing from the 4th to the 28th day. Then the cycle starts again. Or you may have a 3 week cycle where you have treatment on the 1st and 8th days. You then have nothing on days 2 to 7 and days 9 to 21. Your treatment cycles might be weekly or take 2, 3, or 4 weeks or more, depending on the drugs and your treatment plan.
American Cancer Society
Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer | Breast Cancer Treatment
Oct 27, 2021 - Chemo cycles are most often 2 or 3 weeks long. The schedule varies depending on the drugs used. For example, with some drugs, chemo is given only on the first day of the cycle. With others, it is given one day a week for a few weeks or every other week.

Starting chemotherapy? 6 questions to ask | MD Anderson Cancer Center
Nov 8, 2017 - It describes how the medications work, as well as side effects and ways to manage them. It's also important to ask how long you'll be receiving chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is often given in “cycles.” This means the treatment is repeated on a regular schedule with days or weeks of rest in between. For instance, you may receive a dose of chemotherapy on days 1, 5 and 9 every 21 days (3 weeks) for a total of 6 cycles. This means your treatment would last approximately 18 weeks (multiply 6 cycles by 3 weeks). Knowing this information will help you plan ahead. What side effects may I experience?

What to Expect Before, During, and After Chemotherapy Treatment
A cycle is a period of chemotherapy treatment followed by a period of rest. For instance, you might receive chemotherapy every day for 1 week followed by 3 weeks with no chemotherapy. These 4 weeks make up one cycle. The rest period gives your body a chance to recover and build new healthy cells.

@@wekidemon8085 @popshighlightcollection1388 @bdude93 Hi, I don’t recognize any of the “handles” so I’m just going to go with the idea that I don’t have a clue who any of you are. That said, I am a certified chemotherapy RN, retired, although it has been several years since my retirement. And not knowing this case, I don’t know WHEN it took place VS. current standard of care. But I have watched/participated in countless instances of people who needing bone marrow transplants, precursor to the stem sell cell treatments, but initially the “prep” was the same. Not all survived the prep, and not all survived the procedure. Now he may have used terms you don’t know. Maybe you think a cycle = round. Not true. 1 round, 1 infusion.
In the examples you posted, the chemo is the endpoint of successful treatment. Not so with bone marrow/ stem cell replacement therapy. At least when I was working, the chemotherapy was used to completely eliminate the body’s own immune system AND bone marrow. This paved the way for (it was believed at the time) a more successful treatment. But some patients could take more chemo than most thought humanly possible. Where I worked depending upon agents used, 24 infusions were usually the max. That is 24rounds/days of chemotherapy, and if your body proved to be particularly resistant a radiation treatment or two might be added, to target the bone marrow. Some of these patients did not survive the “prep”. Others did not survive the subsequent treatment. To say it is “hard on the body” is a flat out understatement. So who are you to question what someone did or did not go through?? And if you live outside the USA, we have this thing called “right to try”. If you are a Doctor and you have a terminally ill patient and you think XYZ treatment might work, write up your plan, send it (I forget where) but you don’t need to wait for an answer. As long as you and the patient are in agreement with the plan, go ahead and try it! So, get off your high horse. You just might find yourself having a similar experience, but I sincerely pray that you don’t. I have never even wished this experience on my worst enemy. Truly horrific.
I was adopted twice, first by a Christian couple, then by my church family. Amen.
God bless you.

If Jesus wanted a revolt against the Romans, why would he advocate "render unto Caesar what is Caesar's?"
Because His kingdom extended beyond Rome. There are Biblical references to the true Messiah- not one interpretation which is a world political ruler. Jesus is the true Messiah because He overcame the ENTIRE world by the ability to save them, their souls for eternity.
When the earth shook, Did Caesar know the saints had come out of the grave and went down into the city?
that was a public statement all politically aware people know what not to say in public
Because He was a good man. He was fair even to Caesar.
When he said that it was in context of the money. The gold had an image of ceaser. That is what they were giving to ceaser, his coin. They were to give to Christ what matters, their love.

Jesus is not the Father and he was never a man that became the father . He was with the Father from the beginning he is God and always remained God and as God he also became man. This is also why he is called son of man. Because God was made flesh.
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
John 1:14
King James Version
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Anytime he suffered, he did so to teach us that suffering through any situation brings growth as a human being.
God can talk to us through our wounds
"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

I saw him when I was 10 yrs old. I'm 58 now and I still believe Jesus is who he said he was.
Tell me more....I saw Him too.
He spoke to me clear as day when I was 3yo…telling me He made the world. I saw Him walking in the desert. Then when I was 23 I got involved in witchcraft. After repenting, He came to me while I lay on the bathroom floor bawling and He told me He forgave me. I gave my Life to Him and it’s been ten years. I can’t compare it to anything else in this Life. Still makes me cry!!! ❤
Man I pray for the same. My experience was when I was a pre teen, I got really bad wupping at home cause of my antics at school.
That night, I prayed, Jesus please just don't let me get any more complaints. I didn't pray to be a good child, but for no complaints 😂
God helped me that very night. Had a 3 minute long dream of what would happen the next day (cause I didn't learn my lesson), and everything happened exactly as it would. Even the people/friends in the dream, and in reality, spoke the same exact words, did the same things, the teacher wore the same dress, surreal.
And I took the steps to escape the wooping 💪😂
I went through a really bad atheistic phase, thanks to Epicurus. But this experience kept my grounded and brought me back. I had asked Jesus, and he answered.
Although the atheist phase left a severe depression like feelings on me from which I haven't recovered. Haven't felt real happiness since. I pray for healing.
He still is.
I saw him too, when I was 4 years old. He has always been in my life. However, it wasn’t until I became a born again Christian at age 51 that I truly understood who he is and what he is about. I am now 69.

I think Ben forgot if you were born as gods son being Jewish is not your first priority
Lmaoooo
Jejus was Jew or not? Jejus was born he could hardly choose to be born as son of anyone or in what religion. Most prophets have political ambitions and use god told me to as a way to influence people.
Resurrection of jejus? What proof does anyone have? It is just hypothesis…and then people say jejus died for sins of future generations what bullsh*t
Why were people digging up jejus grave?
Underrated comment
I believe Ben's issue is pride. He makes a point of putting Jesus in a low position. He changed the subject because he is dismissive of it. He isn't afraid to argue it. He puts so little value in it that he acts like it's a waste of his time. I'm very surprised that he even had this conversation.
That’s an arrogant insistence though. No one is obliged to believe Jesus. I like Jesus, I do not think he is divine.
Learn Hebrew and study the Bible without being captive to the Christian interpretation and you will realize how wrong and blind you really are
I noticed it is strong in the jewish culture to be negative about Jesus wherever possible... while most people simply don't know what he is about

@LastMinutePhysics - your last minute physics wont save you sir when you have to make an account of yourself. I pray (something you probably hate) that you will see truth and not just be so full of bile.
Here are some facts that should have been mentioned. The Sanhedrin plotted against Yeshua because too many people believed in him and he was 'disrupting' their political status in Roman occupied Israel. You will see the conspiracy noted in each of the Gospels. Well yes they expected a political power, they relied more on their writings (Talmud/Midrash and other writings of the sages), than the actually Tanuk (Torah, writings and histories). They missed all the signs, the restoration of sight (the blind see), healing of illness/infirmities (the lame walk), and later on the resurrection of many to include himself. Hitherto, no one has ever raised themself. John the Baptist asked the right questions, the Sanhedrin did not like the answers. It is why even today (as like then), Isaiah 7, 9, 11, 53, Zechariah 9 and so many others are ignored. It is their stumbling block, but do not worry, keep praying for Ben and many others, The Most High always has a remnant.
The biggest fact that the jews missed was.... the suffering servant. There is 2 parts of messiah missed. Messiah also means blessed one. So king david and joseph were... in a way messiah.
Correct. As noted in the writings and histories. Noah, Abraham , Moses, David Joseph etc., as you noted are all pictures to come of the anointed one. This is noted and expertly explained in Hebrews @@semperfi-1918
@@annpenso7299 no i ment in hebrew and hebraic terminology joseph and those others i mentioned are messiah. Not thee messiah but messiah no doubt. Its hard to explain without a jew to explain the difference.
I understood, this is why I wrote what I wrote @@semperfi-1918
Jesus means Savior, and Messiah means King. So His our King and Savior. What other man on earth has ever claimed that? No other man has claimed that his blood can cleanse us from all unrighteousness. No other man has the power to forgive us from our sin. No other man was in the beginning, before the world began. No other man, ...All it takes people is some reading and studying. There is no debate here. Ben is lost just like we once was. Pray for him. But why just him? Because he is some kind of high moral figure? I tell you to pray for that family member, your neighbor, and even the person you most detest. Love all people and do good to those that don't do you right. Not for your glory but for our Father in Heavens Glory. We are being watched by such a cloud of witnesses. What will be your last deed here on earth? Will the Father be pleased? And if we should receive a reward will you lay it at Jesus feet. The true Champion, who has won the battle over death, hell, and the grave. Only Jesus!
I was baptized in 2007 at 63. I am born again and have accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. He is the Messiah as promised in Isaiah 53.

How I think of it is I imagine Andrew Tate claiming he is the 2nd coming.
Imagine how we would all react to that. That's pretty much how most people would've reacted to Jesus claiming the same thing.
This is a great conversation and kudos to Ben to be willing to discuss this publicly.
Ben by all accounts is pretty fantastic. He knows Christians pray for him to accept Jesus out of love, so he doesn’t get offended. He told a young man that once in a Q and A session.
I have known other Jewish people who had the same attitude.
God will do what He’s gonna do in His own time. Just keep praying.

Brilliantly said. So often, people cut up the argument to take things out of context and make the opponent look foolish or like he is saying something he is not. Here the presentation allows everyone to state his piece and the argument to stand on its own merit, or lack thereof. It is not necessary to sabotage one who's argument is flawed; he will bring himself down by his own hand. The Truth always prevails.

I am a teacher by profession. Anyone watching this earns my respect. Learn to think, not what to think.
By Margaret Mead
You said "I am a teacher" does that make you GOD.
A teachers job isn't to teach what is nonsense and what isn't. It is about giving the tools for people to make it up for themselves.
Some times those tool are more of subjective than objective, but that is only makes sense given the subject matter.
This is why it is essential that schools should be as neutral and impartial as as possible - something that obviously isn't possible in all countries. Even secular countries like the US struggles with this. A child isn't born religious, that is something it evolves cognitively, over many iterations and a social construct of sort. I'm what some people describe as a atheist or even an militant atheist - and I've taught religion to pupils aged 10. Me being an atheist wasn't a relevant parameter for getting the job.
Any way... It is safe to say that I'm no fan of Ben Shapiro :)

God will raise up young people they will remain (hidden) until they emerge. Just like Elijah when he thought all his people were lost to worshipping Baal, he travels to Mount Horeb and God tells him essentially that things are not as they seem, there was 7000 that the Lord reserved who have not given over to the worshipping of the image. So it is with these young people that in what feels like an upcoming perverse and faithless generation, God will pour his spirit upon all flesh and the young people will arise and bring glory to his kingdom 🔥
I’m currently a 16 year old girl, got baptized at 13 and my faith is strong.. don’t lose hope in us young folks were here and burning for Christ 💜✝️
Spiritual warfare is in full force. Jesus is putting a fire in the people he knows will and have devoted theirselves to him. A little over a month ago I finally stopped running from Jesus after knowing of him my whole life. It was the best decision of my life and I’m ashamed it took me this long to stop rebelling against my heart, soul, and spirits true desire, and thats to give all the praise and glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thats why we will always feel like something is mussing or we don’t have enough without God. I finally know what true love is and can now give it to others with Jesus Christ and they can experience that same love from Jesus if they just submit and genuinely calling out to Jesus Christ and meaning it from their mind, heart, and spirit! Thats all it takes for them to start their walk. But usually people dismiss and stay sarcastic and never really try.

You are so right! Speaking as a Jew, growing up we hear about a “messianic era” but we never discussed the need for a messiah or redemption from sin. Our good works and charity would be sufficient. That was sad… but having been a believer in Yeshua for forty years now, ALL of our holy days make sense! Our holy days were the foretelling of Yeshua AS Messiah. 💞
Thank you Lord. 🙏🏼
yea it’s pretty cool that God, long before sending Jesus, foreshadowed what would happen by having his followers make sacrifices to be forgiven and honor God.
Do the jews read Isaiah 53? Do they ignore the references to the Messiah dying for our iniquities? Do they see the promised deliverer of Genesis 3:15? Do they not see the savior in Joseph, the rejected (and supposedly murdered by his envious brothers but was only sold into slavery) son of Jacob? Joseph, who the father thinks he's been dead for years, comes out of Egypt and saves all of Israel?

Pride is what is keeping Ben from accepting that he's wrong...
hes a jew. theyre cursed
Yes, Pride, one of the 7 deadly sins, Jewish people have suffered from human pride long before the crucifixion and still today. May our Father’s kingdom welcome all who welcome and walk the path of Christ.
It is more than pride. His parents, all relatives dead and alive, his wife,etc., are of the jewish faith. To reject that would destroy the people he loves and his relationship with them.

The pharisees refused to believe Jesus because He didn’t come in the manner THEY thought was appropriate. The pharisee spirit lives in His people still to this day, and Ben is one of them. Praise God for His mercy, Ben and others like him will have a chance to repent in the end, and the Bible says multitudes of them will. I pray he is one of them ❤️ What a shame to have to suffer the Tribulation in order to finally accept Jesus, but what a gift that they will be able to.
For Ben to say in the first interview that Jesus was a person out to overthrow the government kind of took me back.
Nowhere in the New Testament does Jesus even hint at that being a goal.
In a few places he even makes it clear his goal is to establish a Kingdom in the next world.
That is why Pilate could find no criminal charges to bring against him.
The Romans were concerned with this world and government system and not some next world ideology.
Ben is usually very up on details and so this was quite the surprise to me.
Then you missed a bunch of instructions from the prophets if you don't think the Messiah would be a politician. And yes, Jesus knew, and yes, he made declarations of war, if you know your prophecy they are easy to spot. He will ride into the city on a white colt ( which the disciples stole for him) that he would carry fronds (a symbol of royalty) . Jesus didn't get all 300 plus of the descriptors of the Messiah but yes, he was politically active. And war like. "Do not think that I come to bring peace to the world. I come as a sword to separate the father's from the sons" . That was Jesus.
The truth should not make your faith less, challenges to your faith should make you stronger. But you have to know what you are talking about.
@@tammyhanlon3057 Jesus was talking about his SECOND coming in the future when he talked about war. I am talking about his first coming. I guess I did not make that clear enough in my above comment. If Pilate had thought there was any chance Jesus would have made war at that time he would have had him put to death. Jesus never in his first coming even sought any type of worldly position of power. He even said he had no home to rest his head, talking about his life before he died and rose again.

Even if a supernatural being existed, where did he come from? An all-powerful man just popped into being from nothing? Be realistic. That never happened.
Jews reject Jesus as the savior. They had him murdered in cold blood.
In the end days, the jews are to kill all infadels in the name of there god.
(Anyone who isn't a jew)
Don't be surprised people. This is who the jews are.
They reject Jesus outright.
They had Jesus killed.
"Jewish authorities in Roman Judea charged Jesus with blasphemy and sought his execution, but lacked the authority to have Jesus put to death (John 18:31), so they brought Jesus to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of the province, who authorized Jesus' execution (John 19:16)."
Pontius Pilate actually did not want jesus killed. He tried to get around it, but the jews gave him an ultimatum as they were already in the provess of an insurrection, insurgents tearing up the place, so he either execute Jesus or they will start a holy war with the romans.
4
Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews, "Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him."
"6
As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, "Crucify! Crucify!" But Pilate answered, "You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him."
7
The Jews insisted, "We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because he claimed to be the Son of God."
8
When Pilate heard this, he was even more afraid."
"12
From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free, but the Jews kept shouting, "If you let this man go, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar."
When Pilate saw that a riot might break out, he washed his hands in front of the crowd, and said, “I am not responsible for the death of this man!”
The whole jewish crowd answered, “Let the responsibility for his death fall on us and on our children!”
Then Pilate set Barabbas free and reluctantly handed Jesus over to be crucified."
I agree that Ben has a stumbling block and I believe it is his pride that is holding him back. He is a very intelligent person who prides himself on his intelligence and opinion so to admit he is wrong about Jesus would be monumental for him. We need to pray for him and all those who don’t know Jesus as their Savior.

He preached love and tolerance and against usury by chasing money lenders out of synagogues. If anything he was a threat to the Jewish hierarchy not Rome.
he said, or it was written that he said?
Jesus most likely existed because we have multiple records of conflicting biases agreeing that he did; Romans and jews. But what jesus said, is only recorded by his followers. This is a single, biased source. Physically not different from a comic book or a novel.
I think you’re conclusion here is pretty spot on. There’s an underlying heart issue. Praying for Ben is an excellent thing to do.

Lazarus was not resurrected. Jesus Christ was the “first fruit” of the resurrection because He was to die then take his body up again. He was raised, not resurrected. Lazarus would continue to age and eventually die. After his death Lazarus would receive his resurrection when The Savior calls His saints out of their tombs.

Shapiros whole identity is his religion, his Jewish background. He’s not going to leave everything he’s ever known over one conversation. Everyone believes their religion is the right religion. Could he convert? Sure, it’s possible. Just not probable.
Would love to see Ben have in depth discussion with Lee Strobel. He was a hard core atheist intellectual who vigorously sought to disprove the claim Jesus is God and is who He said He is. He became a Christian. Beautiful testimony.
Jesus was NOT God! Jesus as conflated by modern theologians represents at least five different people who were converged into one at the Council of Nicene, where many books were removed. One of these books tell of one of these ‘Jesuses’ visited Hell.
