I definitely was attacked yesterday, not face to face, but in social media. I was sharing Daily Strength and Jesus Calling devotionals and prayers from books. I didn’t feel discouraged by their hatred towards God and Christianity, I just felt annoyed. I used to feel nervous/discourage to share the gospel and the love of God like years ago but my faith I believe has grown stronger. Praise Lord Jesus.

As a new Christian you better investigate the supernatural changes that were made in your bible in recent years because none of the ''men of God'' on YT are ever going to tell you about them.*
You better read Daniel 3:25 28 in KJV then NASV. KJV reads the Son of God, NASV reads a son of the gods. Make sure you read 28, it reads the same for both versions, God sent his Angel ie. Jesus is the Angel of the Lord.❤❤❤
THANK YOU, I hear people argue about the location of the Garden of Eden, and I always think about the fact that it was before the flood, and that we can not possibly expect to be able to find the location. Noah probably looked out upon the landscape and decided to name the Euphrates and Tigris rivers after the original rivers from before the flood. Like how people will name a city after another, York -> New York. I have NEVER understood why people think that the earth would be even remotely similar after the flood, if you believe in the bible you have to understand that the flood destroyed the old world. Lands ripped apart, layers and layers and layers of sediment containing the tsunami remains of animals swept away... where Noah landed, was the new location of humanity. Before.. only God knows.
I completely agree with you! Plus, I tend to wonder if most of what has been the dry land, post-flood, might have originally been the seabed, pre-flood; and vice versa, if most of what has been the seabed, post-flood, might have originally been the dry land lived on by Adam and his antediluvian children (so that, for instance, for ought we know, the garden of Eden may well now be at the bottom of the Sargasso Sea, or the Mariana Trench). A global inversion, so to speak. Not saying I think that was the case, or that anything leads me to think it was (though, on the other hand, I don't know that any of the Biblical data contradicts it). But, if God has a sense of humor, He surely could have done so...all the while making sure man will never locate Eden short of His direct revelation of it!
The Garden of Eden is a spiritual garden located in Paradise. The banishment of the fallen angels was initially to Paradise where that well known event took place. It was following that further act of disobedience that the physical creation of the earth as the highest level of Hell was necessary as part of God's Mysterious Plan of Redemption.
There's a UA-cam page that concentrates on nothing but showing alleged contradictions in the Bible, often using mocking cartoons to try and get a laugh (humor is a tool people use to get you to like what they post). I was challenged to watch them and respond, and I did, and I enjoyed it as they were all SO EASY to refute! I have read the Bible cover to cover several times and studied it in depth (not bragging, just stating facts) and so it was easy for me to refute them. I went into reading God's word to learn the truth. They go in looking for errors (this is also what God's word refers to when it comes to looking into God's word with an "unholy curiosity", if you're looking for contradictions, that's exactly what that is, you have evil intent) and they find errors because they don't understand what they're reading and they haven't read it all. It was actually an interesting challenge and I highly recommend you ALL go looking for these contradiction videos and then refute them publicly, showing off how foolish they are. It will sharpen your knowledge of the scriptures and you may just help someone else out there who could be duped by these lies into understanding the truth.
I find it helps my own study to search out these allegations because the truth always refutes them. I’ve found most who criticize the holy Bible have no idea what’s in it.
I forgot how much I love this organization. I am currently in Bible college, and even then, doubts can still creep in, but videos like this help to strengthen my faith! Thank you Answers in Genesis for being a light in the Darkness!
As you know, in Genesis are the correct, God-breathed answers to these two, interesting questions: 1. *What is earth's all-time lowest, greater-than-0 human population number?* Answer: *1 individual* (namely, Adam). 2. *What is earth's all-time lowest, greater-than-1 human population number?* Answer: *2 individuals* (namely, Adam and Eve). Have fun trying to get any Darwin cheerleader to answer either of these questions. The Darwin cheerleader learns very quickly how utterly worthless to him is his falsely so-called "science" ("science" is what he asininely terms his vacuous Darwinistspeak) when it comes to a confrontation with such questions. I mean, what's he going to do? Answer them respectively, "1 individual" and "2 individuals"? Obviously he's not going to do _that,_ since those are the same answers God gives in His Word, and he's a fist-clenching, dyed-in-the-wool rejecter and denier of God's Word. In short, what it comes down to is that he is forced into silence regarding these questions, pretending as though he never heard them asked, since he, as a Darwin cheerleader, has not a shred of hope of ever responding rationally to them.
ANSWERS IN GENESIS needs to stop associating Science with a SCIENTIFIC WORLDVIEW. There is no such thing as "secular" Science anymore than their is "Christian" science. Science is a METHOD and it seeks TRUTH. While it's true than the NEW ATHEISM is thankfully failing and THEISM back on the rise, saying the Earth is 6000 years old and ignoring the fossil record isn't needed to believe in GOD ALMIGHTY and JESUS CHRIST as the redeemer of mankind!! ANSWERS IN GENESIS makes alot of mistakes and tells alot of UNTRUTHS (not sure if these are intentionally lies or just ignorance) but GOD is the GOD of Science, just as GOD is the Almighty Creator GOD and author of the BIBLE. All this said, we don't have to tell UNTRUTHS to push for JESUS CHRIST!! The Earth is ancient and GOD made many life forms along the way before GOD made MODERN MAN and made modern man in the IMAGE of GOD!! The EARTH is 4.5 Billion years old, any Christian PhD Geologist and Christian PhD Astronomers will verify this!! This isn't CONTESTED fact, it's TRUTH!! GOD BLESS!!

Sometimes we gloss over the word substance in the verse...Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Substance in the greek is hypostasis. Hypo means below and stasis means to hold or stand. It literaly means to hold or stand under. We can visualize this, as in a building, like a foundation or piling or column on which the building is supported. So faith is not just some willy-nilly belief floating around in the clouds. It is a belief born out of physical and spiritual evidence that God gives us so that we have a "reaasonable expecation" that supports our belief. We hope for eternal life and more importantly we hope for a loving relationship with our creator. He has given copius evidence that this is true.....sub - stance... stand under...Understand?
@@nathanielalderson9111 faith is belief in a proposition without evidence to support the conclusion. In contrast, trust would be an evidence based reason to believe a statement or action to be true.

2 Timothy 3:16,17 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
And that means "life giving." It is not a reference to NT scripture, as none of the authors had a NT. The author of 2 Timothy is referring to the Hebrew Bible. This entire video is a lovely example of apologetics. Like when he discussed the 4 different accounts of the number of angels in the gospels. His own words are "Maybe Mark only focused on the angel that was speaking." That Maybe is big, because it creates the possibility, and so long as that possibility exists, then our presuppositions allow us to ignore discrepancies.
@@MrBlakeD82 Going by what Christians are to believe, that the Holy Spirit inspired the writers who wrote these books, to say that 2 Tim 3:16 did not refer to the NT is false. You're forgetting the true author of the scriptures and that he was fully aware of what was being said with those words. It refers to the whole Bible, not just the OT. And the 'maybe' you mention is not ignoring a discrepancy, it's giving a valid reason for why it may exist in the first place.
Just to anyone wondering, this video is not about the particular supposed contradictions in the Bible themselves, like I’ve seen someone comment, but rather the focus is on the various kinds of fallacious reasoning they bring to this issue (what they call a contradiction) to say there are contradictions in the Word. Peace in Christ ❤

Road Runner Tactic: Self contradicting statement... another funny one. "It's true for you but not for me." heheh oh really and on what planet do you live on?
The verse that says a man doesn't love his children that spares the rod... Does not mean to beat your children. The rod or staff with hook that shepherds used was to guide the sheep on the narrow paths on the mountain and the hook with to pull them out of holes that they might fall into. Good shepherds did not hit their sheep! It's telling you to guide your children in the way to go! It's easier to teach your children the right way than just to hit them when they do wrong!
And yet here we are, several generations after physical punishment was outlawed, with children showing very little respect for any authority. The Bible doesn’t mean people to beat their children, but the odd smack when they were out of line sure worked wonders in times gone by. But unfortunately the pendulum has swung too far the other way. The elderly used to get respect and placed first, now children are given that place of honor.
Once, a man who had heard his minister say, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and he will not depart from it," and he later asked the minister, "How do I train up my child in the way he should go?" The minister replied, "By going that way yourself."
@@AmericanActionReport that's awesome! I decided when I was pregnant with my first one that I wasn't going to be a parent who said do as I say, not as I do. But I think what helped me train them more more than my parenting, was I told them that good comes back to you just like bad. And it seemed that the Holy Spirit (or what some would call instant karma) seemed to help me, to make that point. My family and the children's teachers were mad at me because my daughter was telling all the little kids Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny wasn't real. they were mad at me because they lied to their kids. The movie tooth fairy seem like satanic propaganda to me. They want parents to lie to their children. Oh what a tangled web parents weave, when they think their children are naive. My two girls were strange anyways they didn't want to give up their teeth for money. They saved every single tooth. I gave them the money, anyway.

@@razark9do you realize that all historians worth their salt even in acknowledge Jesus lived.

John 17:17 Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. John 16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

On March 26th 2022, just past midnight, I was restless in bed, my limbs became numb & tingly, my chest became tight, & my heart felt like it was being crushed. So I sang out to God and Jesus, about my pain, my feelings, my faults and my inabilities.
As I sang, I began to feel like a river, & a hand was on my back, it's fingers where skimming the surface of the waters, separating the waters, causing ripples through my body. Then the hand reached inside my chest, lit my heart on fire, & the heat moved like waves through my body. When I was done singing, all the pain was gone, & I looked at the clock, it was past 1am, I had sang near an hour.
Then the voice of my guardian angel called my name from above, & there was a hymn of energy in the air, the same hymn I hear in my dreams of God. Glory, Honor, blessings, thanks and praise to the Lord my God, for healing my heart during a heart attack! Hallelujah to the Lord my God for healing my heart! Hallelujah for His son Jesus for saving my soul! Hallelujah for every day! Hallelujah for every breath! The Lord is Faithful and true! May the Lord Bless your hearts, so that you have the will and strength to turn from selfish sins, and flee from the slaveries of the flesh!

20:48 *"can you give me one example where a mutation has added new genetic information?"* To my understanding, mutation generate new genetic information, that's the point of calling it mutation. New information in the form of new states of biomolecules, makes the DNA to do something different than it did before. Here no information was added (increased) in the genome, but genome information has changed. In DNA ´information´ means the specific physical states of biomolecules that determine how living organisms function. If the information changes, DNA changes, and what is does change. *Now, talking about if is possible to INCREASE the information on genomes, an answer I read was:* Gene duplication followed by divergence is a well-known example of mutation that increases information in the genome. This process is a key driver of evolutionary innovation. What basically happens is that in a cell division, a segment of a DNA containing a gene is duplicated. With time the duplicated genes can accumulate mutations, yet still perform their necessary functions. These mutations lead to the gene acquiring a new function or a modified version of the original function. The genome now contains two genes where there was originally only one, each serving different roles. This way the information content of the genome has increased. *About the "pause" in Dawkins answer:* What was asked to Richard Dawkins was this: "can you give us an example of a genetic mutation or an evolutionary process which can be seen to increase the information in the genome?" And he didn't pause to think for an answer, he paused because the interviewers there did not posed as creationists when they agreed with the interview. He paused because he was about to end the interview, but he was pledged to continue since the people were from Australia or something like that, and travelled all the way just to interview him. So after agreeing to continue, they went to another topic but that was cut out. He does answer this question in his books, but I never read them.
I appreciate your diligence, intelligence, and commitment. As for the people who call out all of the supposed contradictions in the Bible… not really something I focus on.

@@_fire_fox_1152 Please get your facts right. Jesus may have been a real person (or perhaps the stories are based on a real person), but there are no eye-witness accounts. Stories about eye-witnesses do not constitute eye-witness accounts.
@@BruceFox-Lefriche Actually, virtually every scholar to ever live, as well as ancient historical scholars are 100% certain that Jesus not only existed, but even was crucified, and we even have reasonable evidence to support the truth of the resurrection, with the empty tomb. If the disciples were hallucinating, and they really didn't see Jesus, and were just making the whole thing up, wouldn't it be easier for the authorities to just have people check the Tomb? wouldn't it be easier for them to send a batallion of troops, open the door of the tomb, and show that The dead Jesus was there the whole time? but no, We historically have an empty Tomb! the Phariees and other officials simply responded saying that the disciples stole the body... somehow, but that couldn't be possible, because The Romans positioned soldiers in front of the Tomb, with a huge stone rolled in the front. Impossible to get past if these crazed disciples just wanted to steal their master's body. And if you really are going to stick with the idea that it was hallucination, what drug where all the disciples smoking then? How did all of them see Jesus? The same vision. I think it would be a greater miracle that rising from the dead to say that the 500 witnesses who saw Jesus' bodily resurrection were all having the same hallucination. But let's assume this somehow happened, ok. Or, better yet, let's say that the disciples stole the body, and convinced everyone else that Jesus had risen. Ok, fine. The disciples, those who were personally with Jesus, and many others, were led to their deaths. The most gruesome, awful, horrific ends a human could imagine. They were skinned alive, sawn in two, burned, beheaded, crucified, or fed to wild animals. Do you REALLY think that these guys would suffer these horrible, horrific deaths, based on something they knew wasn't true? Based on a lie they concocted to, what? Get rich? seriously, what do you people think these guys had to gain? The bible had to be written by SOMEBODY, and we have valid historical proof that much of it is from the sources tradition credits them with, so why would this happen if it was all a fake?

Hey Mr Chaffey! Glad to have had you as my science teacher in high school at TSCS. Some of my favorite memories heading to AIG with you. Learned a lot from you!
In 2 Timothy 3:16, in my ESV Bible, it says, "All Scripture is God-breathed..." I just prefer that term personally. To me, that term makes it clearer that God spoke the entire Bible. 😊
For whatever it's worth .... I like 2Ti 3:16 KJV - 16 All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: God communicates in many ways with mankind and that includes the scriptures. He first wrote the 10 commandments Himself. Another example is from Jer 36:1-6 KJV - 1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, [that] this word came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, 2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. 3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin. 4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and *Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book* . 5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I [am] shut up; I cannot go into the house of the LORD: 6 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, *which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD* in the ears of the people in the LORD'S house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities. The main thing is that we believe the Bible came from God. 🙂
We can understand what He (God) has given us in His Holy Scriptures through study and prayer. To say that we cannot come to understand all of what God has given us in His Scriptures is to say that He did not do a good enough job in his Word for His children to be able to understand Him. The "not knowing all of that which He has given us in the Bible" is due to our lack of devoting ourselves to His word not on Him being clear enough. The key to all of this is to study and show oneself approved, be in his Word and "study" not just read, you must dig into the Scriptures. We cannot fully know God, but we can truly know God and that is by His authoritative, inerrant, infallible, necessary, and sufficient Word. Enjoyed the video!

Thank you for this! I will say some great tools we can use to show why the enemy is wrong is stuff like this - being able to explain why the bible can be trusted. It's hard for me to explain why I have the faith I have other than it being a gift, but when you have solid, concrete reasons why the bible itself can be trusted, it's hard for the nay sayers to argue with that.
Ooooh this is going to be good. It amazes me how many people will claim there's a Bible contradiction and will never look up the Christian explanation for it. It's really simple. Google----( the Bible verse in question), contradiction, explanation.....
The Gospel Truth didn't have to be repeated several times to be called 'The Gospel Truth'. Even the repetitions have contradictions in them. What is the truth? What do we believe?
"God enjoys hiding somethings from us..." The answer to the that is in Proverbs 25:2 "It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter." It is not a matter of if we knew everything, we would be God. It is a matter of Him giving us challenges. We have to really WANT to know the answers. God is no proponent of the attitude, "There are some things that man was not meant to know."
The answer is easy - to help spread the truth through logic and reason. It is disconcerting to see people declare that they love Jesus and then display hate to their fellow man. This shows that people are truly not being honest with themselves about their own values. One way to help people see reality is to gently let them realize that the bible is not inerrant. Careful review of the bible lets one realize that it is a combination of both fact and fiction. This realization does not mean that there is no God nor does it mean that the bible should not be read for the powerful inspiration that it provides. Everyone should read the bible.

Later said that he was punned to the wall of a cave three times by a demon who forced a message on him. He told his Catholic inlaws about it, they convinced him that it was actually the angel Gabriel, and thats just the beginning. But to get back to the question, I , like all, have some sort of axiom but I know forming it or trying to maintain a certain bias without objective evidence is self-defeating.
@@Isaac-47517 If I followed your mindset of “one can judge a tree by it’s fruit” you should take one look at the Holocaust (as Hitler, even if he didn’t actually believe in god, was a Christian)
If you believe in God being all powerful and literally spoke the universe into being, then how is it difficult to believe anything written in his word?
From what I gather from nonbelievers that aren't full of hatred is mostly scientific. They believe in evolution and a universe made over 10 billion years ago because that's what they were taught. They're either completely unaware of the scientific evidence against their theory, or, they are aware and choose not to believe it. Other reasons they've told me is that you can't see God. They don't understand that mankind is fallen and disconnected from God which is why Jesus existed to reconnect humankind back with God. And one other thing is they want to know who created God. They don't understand He's infinite, eternal and has simply always existed. It's difficult for some people to grasp the eternal aspect of Gods nature.
I will say that when people start attacking and attacking, it is a good idea to pause, step back and evaluate what your goal in the conversation is and reestablish what both of your goals and points are
Ironically the only empirical thing going on is that if this is 2024 to you, you are technically still living in Anno Domini, The Year of Our Lord, no matter how you call it Common Era. Philippians 2:11, boom.
So what? We still divide circles into 360 but we don’t believe in the Babylonian gods, and over half of our words come from Latin, Germanic, or Celtic tribes. It’s just more logical to base our time system off of the one already used by the majority of western cultures rather than guess when a more impactful event happened.
@@Woopor You say "so what?" as if it is insignificant. But even non Christian higher ups, including atheists, realized this and demanded that Common Era be used instead. Insecure much? I'm not even asking you to believe. But just say it, what year is this, its complete name?
@@Taehc Why bother giving you what you so desperately crave, when anyone can just point out that 0 for our modern calendar isn't even Jesus' birth year.
@@burnttoast2790 Ironically the only desperate attempt here is demanding to use a different name to distance yourselves from the religious implication, yet still shamelessly use the same number. Use like Earth's actual age or something, people! Seriously, Dude, seriously. Say what year this is, complete sentence.
@@Taehc *Ironically the only desperate attempt here is demanding to use a different name to distance yourselves from the religious implication, yet still shamelessly use the same number.* The _number_ is more important here, because a good chunk of our civilizations internal interactions rely on that number by virtue of the cultural dominance of European-descended nations. The name, meanwhile, doesn't matter, especially when it doesn't actually match the birth year of Christ. Call it Anno Domini or the Common Era, it's still starting at a time that isn't Jesus' birthdate and doesn't _need_ to be so heavily intertwined with Christian mythology. *Use like Earth's actual age or something, people! Seriously, Dude, seriously.* Unfortunately for everyone, the modern Gregorian calendar, complete with AD/BC placement, is still around by virtue of "TRADITION" and convenience. It'd be like Y2K but _worse._ *Say what year this is, complete sentence.* It is the year 2024 if we go by the Gregorian calendar. Now that we've got that out of the way, would you quit with the sad whining? And better yet, are you gonna actually deal with the problems your GOTCHA has with Jesus' supposed birthdate?
When an atheist or other religion tells me a so called contradiction im just thinking so ive been reading the Bible all this time and you found a contradiction I did not see. You must be a diligent reader of the Bible! They just pick up stuff randomly from people who dont do research
A contridiction is having two statements of the same idea, but they're both saying two different things. You can Google contridictions of the Bible and look for yourself - that's what I'm doing. Some aren't, but some definitely are, regardless whether or not it's significant or not; 700 vs 1000 is a contridiction. Like the Prophet Gad telling David that Adonai says three years of famine in one account, and 7 years of famine in another account; that's by definition a contridiction. Now you may think like me, it's written by humans, as the Bible doesn't shy away from that fact - though guided by the Holy Spirit. However, if a prophet is saying two different things, is he really a prophet? If the Bible is true, we MUST be fearless and search out for the answer, because truth is truth regardless. If we don't, we don't really care about truth, but feeling comfortable in a religion.
The Bible is the word of God. He chose each and every word carefully. Every word is true. And no word contradicts another word. Some word are figurative, and some words are literal. Both are true. It is not a history book like we would write. It is His story. It is God writing to us about God. To our tiny minds, God is a mystery. It makes sense that we wouldn't understand everything. But thru it we can see and know God. Thankyou for your word, God. Amen.
Great documentation of clarification, of the soundness of God's word, science is still catching up to the truth of God's word, which is forever, just like God's glory and mercy to us all in Jesus Christ His Son.
When someone tells me 'The Bible is full of contradictions' I ask them two questions: 1. Contradictions, huh? Name the one that MOST bothers you. and, once I've dealt with that ''contradiction'' ... 2. Is THAT the only, and REAL, reason you don't believe in the Bible? Most times, I find that at some point the protestor against the Bible will do something that always proves my second point: 1. They shift the goal posts... moving on to some other perceived or claimed ''problem''... because... 2. The REAL reason that people don't reject Jesus and the Bible is NOT because of some perceived ''contradiction''. There's something else at work.
The age at which Ahazia took the throne is given twice, in two different books. Each book gives a different age. This is a clear contradiction. They cannot both be correct.
You know what's funny? Christians act the exact same way as every other religion when their book is criticized. Except yours in the only true one of course 🤣
Oh yeah? Care to explain why God is supposedly omnibenevolent but also creates evil? Proverbs 16:4 says, "The LORD has made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble". Why would an all good God need to create evil?
@@Sam_Hyde_Apologist Answer: 1 John 1:5 KJV [5] This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. There is no darkness in God at all. Rather we may understand that or not. God created the person, and that person choose evil. Therefore that wicked person who choose evil, is for the day of wrath. Plus God has another plan for those who choose evil, for them to repent. This also what proves my point: Acts 17:30-31 KJV [30] And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: [31] because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. God's is still loving became He have a way for the wicked to come to Him. So if He judges them He is just because He made a way for all to come to Him through Jesus His Son.
@@Peony-wg5jc the passage literally says he made everything, including evil peoole... You just proved a contradiction, God has no darkness in him, but creates evil. If God didn't make evil than he did not make everything, thus someone else did, but that means he isn't omnipotent. Another contradiction

Not going to even bother refuting you in the other apparent contradictions when right off the bat, you apparently missed the fall of man, after which God is displeased with men. So, because your first point shows a lack of basic reading comprehension, I'm not going to take you seriously when you fail to understand that God is sometimes spoken of according to His Nature and sometimes according to human terms to help us understand.
I agree with these defenses, but that's partly because I'm a believer in Jesus Christ as being infallible! I can see that some of these wouldn't, couldn't fly with non-believers!
@@markduell2468 did you know you are wrong? You haven't been keeping up to date on everything. If you were you would realize that Bible archaeologists have been discovering a lot of new things about the Exodus. You're behind on the times there, Mark.
@@RobertA-up9urwhen was evidence for the Exodus discovered ? Last I checked, which was a few years ago, teams of Jewish archaeologists, some of the leading archaeologists, said that there's no evidence for the Exodus. I'll try to find sources for that again.
Concerning Judas, I believe he fell down from where he was hanging during the earthquake that struck when Jesus died. If the quake was strong enough to rip the curtain of the temple and split rock, it could have caused judas’ swinging body to fall and be split open!
The best answer I can give you for historical fulfillments, is that the New Testament writers and early Christians didn't explained the Tenakh or Hebrew Bible (text like Isaiah 7) in a mathematical way or in a rigorous precise literal manner. That was not their intentions and it caused them to be branded heretics by the Jewish authorities. Their manner of interpretation was always to parallel (types and shadows) the meaning of what was written to their modern day. 🤔And of course ... this created dual interpretations of prophecies, and the types in the Old Testament were foreshadowed in the New Testament in grandeur and spiritual meanings as to what is coming. For example the sacrifice of the lamb foreshadowed the sacrifice of Jesus. Circumcision foreshadowed baptism. The Passover feast foreshadowed Holy Communion. The Sabbath day of rest foreshadowed rest in Christ and His gospel work. The Ark of the Covenant foreshadowed Mary and the cheribims the angels in heaven. And we can go on ... And this is how many Messianic prophecies of the Old Testament foreshadowed were fulfilled in the New Testament, and still others to be fulfilled until the second coming of Christ ... Now ... of course my dear reader, Orthodox or Rabbinic Jewish scholars will not endorse the New Testament interpretation method (also demonstrated by Peter in Acts 2 using Joel's prophecy).☝🏽 Nevertheless, Christians truly believe and hold that this method of interpretation is INSPIRED. For the Spirit of God is able to add and subtract different dimensions of meanings from His own scriptural works, move people's hearts, and apply the scriptures to our modern times ... so as to bring about the salvation of souls. 🙏🏽Regards
bro👍 good job, of late 10 12 contradictions in a video form, was bothering and used ponder try find solutions, as was scrolling I got you, wud u pl give them the rebut, make their doubts clear or debunk them👍😅
2 Samuel 10:18 and 1 Chronicles 19:18 both speak of David slaying the Syrians cahriots. The first lists 700 slain, the second lists 7,000 slain. This is a contradiction. I believe in God maintaining the message of the Gsopel, but to say there are no contradictions is a stretch.
Yeah, but that doesn't acknowledge human error. It isn't an error in the Bible, it is an error in the translation, or maybe in the interpretation - perhaps there was another instance not recorded, or maybe it was disputed at the time, but I believe there is a logical explanation in every event recorded on the Biblr
Right out of the gate you poorly define contradiction. It's making a statement claiming truth, and then also claiming it as false. It is making a statement as truth, and then making another statement as truth, but the two statements together cannot be both true at the same time. Example "The sky is blue." "The molecules in the air make the sky green." I have now committed a contracictory statement to the first. He also mentions Mary Magdalen, but not all accounts have Mary Magdalen, and some have a different Mary. That is a contradiction. There's also the reason Joseph and Mary left their home. Was it for the Census of Quirenos, or was it for King Herod. During King Herod's reign, there was no census. That wasn't until years after Herods death. What about the commandment to not steal? Jesus told a man to go into town and take a donkey. If the owner asks why he's taking it, tell him the Lord needs it. Thats theft. No matter how you look at it, they are to take this donkey with or without permission from the owner. We do have four accounts if the gospels, but two of them are nearly identical in every word, which like you said, is suspect to the actual truth of it. There's alsl several "non canonical" gospels that didn't make it in under the idea that they didn't fit the narrative well enough. The church admitted this. To study? What happebed to not rely on your knowledge but to rely on your faith? "Trust in the lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." Your first point on common mistakes is wrong. You never assume the author is telling the truth. You can choose to do so for the sake of ease, sure. But that's not a good or valid reason to believe in anything. If there is a claim that is made, it must hsve evidence to support that claim that is independent. That means it supports only itself and no other contradictory claim, can be verified and is true. What would the bible be guilt or innocent of? Its a horrible analogy. They who make the claim have the burden of proof. Not those who don't believe the claim. Also, nonbelievers didnt say the Hitittes didn't exist, they said that we shouldn't take the claim as true until there is evidence of such. And guess what type of science found the evidence. Archaeology. Guess who dated it? Archaelogists. The same people answers in gensis claims cant accurately date things. How do the four corners of the earth mean the four cardknak directions? East and west is just one endless circle that is based on location. It's relative. North is relative to the north cap, south is relative to the south cap, so they at least have stopping points, but east and west don't. Its just a circle. Also, how did you conclude this? Or did you just pull it out from nowhere like God did the universe? Yes, every person who has ever criticized the bible for endorsing slavery, telling you how to buy, sell, trade, beat and even have...uh...less than consensual entertainment with... slaves. And dont give me "Chattel" vs "bonded servitude." It calls them property. That's what Chattel means. You claim the Bible is written by man inspired by God. Well, the only animals we know that can write, have wrote and still write are humans, so ill say there's enough evidence for the first half. But how do you know the bible was inspired by God? Could someone write something and think they were inspired by god? How do you prove who really was? I have no idea what the writinf styles of the bible have to do in rerence to what we're talking about here. It doesnt matter what was okay back then, the reason we have the rules on citation is precisely because of the lack of being able to identify where quotes come from. As an example, the very first line of the bible is a copy of another religious text. Those two verses you showed are an actual contradiction. Like, even the was you explained it is still contradictory because that is entirely made up. The bible doesnt say that they then purchased the field with the money Judas refused but technically it's Judas, therefore he bought it. That doesn't make sense logically either. If I stole your debit and spent the money, that doesn't mean you bought me a car. It means i purchased a car with stolen money. You also make up a story entirely made up, once again, in order to not make it a contradiction. You made thst story up. The bible did not claim that was the vase. That's still 100% a contradiction. Round numbers are fine. As long as they match relative historical numbers and can be verified, i can accept them as truth. Otherwise, i just don't know. How do we know the original text is inerrant if we dont have the original texts? Also, the sections that we do are often still filled with contradictions. You're confident when it was written originally that it was inerrant...why? You have no reason to believe that. Circular reasoning. The bible is true because God made it. Which god? The god of the bible. How do we know he is real? The bible says so. "Just believe" is not a good reason. Just believe me. I'm right. Faith is beleivng in somethinf without good reason. If you jsd a good reason, you eluld give the reason, making faith useless. I don't want to destroy your belief. I care about truth, and I want everyone to care about truth because evidence shows that the more true things you believe in, the better society runs as well as the happier the people are. Every mutation is new information. Easy answer. Evolution is a fact. Its crazy how people miss this. Theories. Explain. Facts. Theories are sets of explanations bscked by the best facts amd evidence we have for OBSERVED PHENOMENA. Gravity is a fact, the thory of gravity explains it. Cells are factually real. Cell theory explains cells. Germs are actually factually real, yet still, germ theiry explains germs. Theories. Explain. Favts. Im done now.
Also, I am stealing that burden of proof part. So many people that I have talked to about my lack of faith say that a god of infinite power could easily fill any contradiction in the Bible. Then they need to prove that that god exists
Hey, I really appreciate this...This may save my families life..I'd say more about the personal details, but it's the internet. Never realized how low of a bar the bible set for god and me about god. A all-knowing god wouldn't use a word that means something entirely different than the definition of that word. ya use a different word/correct yourself, duh. Cheers, mate. Thank you for taking time out of your day to write this.
Faith is choosing to trust and then respond to situations from that place of trust. I trust that Jesus is who He says He is and that He will do what He says He will do. Everything Jesus did happened and everything He says is true. Jesus is coming back to earth to finally bring end to the evil we see now and this earth. All those who knows Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour will live forever with Him on the new earth and new heaven where there will be no more tears and no evil. Everyone who doesn't want to live with Christ, whoever does not want to place their hope and faith in Jesus Christ to the very end will get what they want: a life without the presence of God, but without His presence you lose acess to love, peace, and all things good permanently. That life will be filled with everlasting torment. This is why the news of Jesus needs to be shared while there is still time. The opportunity to know Christ as your Lord and Saviour is open to you until your last breath or until Jesus has come back. The real question is will you let Jesus personally lead you to everlasting life? I don't need to know your answer, the answer can stay between you and God. If I am wrong then you have nothing to worry about but if what I said is true, then everyone's life is a stake. As for me and my household, I will serve Jesus Christ and wait on his promises.
@@tdcampbell7728 you realize that people cannot just *choose* to believe in something, right? If I told you the sky was green, you would say that the sky is blue. If I then said that all you had to do is choose to believe that the sky is green and then it would turn green, you would call me insane. And yet, that's the argument you're making for religion
@@tdcampbell7728 You're definition of faith is a useless definition. If I just trust that Gerald the magic giraffe will set us free in eternal peace of the infinite white room, it makes it no more valid than your claim of Jesus being true. Evidence is required for truth to have meaning. Otherwise, we would believe in any and everything that "feels" right to us, which is not how reality works. It doesn't matter whether I trust in gravity. It works. It doesn't matter whether I trust that atoms exist. They do. It doesn't matter if I trust in electrons being attracted to protons. They are. You're statements about believing in Christ are just stupidly wrong as well. I was a devout Catholic who was desperately trying to to strengthen my connection with God. I believed he was talking to me and guiding me. He wasn't. I was. I realize this for myself. Maybe there is a God talking, I'm not sure. But if it is the Christian God, he's a monster and you shouldn't worship him. He allows slavery, he allows human sacrifice, he allows the murder of humans, he allows the genocide of peoples, and there's no good reason to even believe he's real in the first place.
I agree with the majority of what this influencer post. Mostly because they explain things according to scripture. Would love this channel to talk about the “rapture” in a scriptural narrative. Thank you for doing your best to spread the actual word and always looking forward to what y’all do produce to educate accordingly with scripture.
He didn't prove anything, he just stated that the contradictions, weren't contradictions. I guess because he says so? Then he brings up multiple theories, where Is the evidence for them? It seems to me that ones perception plays a significant role In the bible. Also.. who said that All scripture was Inspired by God? I believe It's Paul that says this, correct? Not, Jesus? For me, there are a lot of unanswered things, that I'm just now getting the privilege to explore. Is God static? If so, doesn't that make the bible REALLY REALLY REALLY hard to explain to the younger generations? Considering they do have access to the world wide web after-all. I pray Jesus shows me truth within this topic. I'm searching for answers and I will continue to reflect on this. Thank you. God bless.
I feel pretty goof about my knowledge of the Bible that I was able to answer or rationalize all of these supposed contradictions on my own. I'm grateful that God has always made me somewhat cynical and skeptical so I could address these things in my own and thus be better prepared.
That's because none of these that he looked at were actual contradictions, a real contradiction would be like whether the animals were created before or after man (Genisis 2:18-19, Genisis 1:25-27)
@@voltagestorm1787 Precisely. Watching this video, I was looking for the contridictions I hear most of, though admitedly the most people go for are the OT passages. I'm trying to figure this out myself, but you're absolutely right that this video really isn't addressing contridictions. He does address a few, but not everything he mentions is. :)
Yes exactly, so when I said there were 11 Jurors, that was accurate because there were 12 and you have to have 11 before 12, this is a super common way of speaking, totally 100%
I wish they had touched on the apparent contradiction of the two genealogies of Jesus. That is the most commonly raised one by critics, being the most difficult to resolve. Having dug into it extensively with two brothers, I'm rather confident at this point that Mary's father was also named Joseph and Matthew has been mistranslated to list Joseph as her husband rather than father, hence the generational miscount stating 14 generations where there is clearly only 13 if Joseph there is her husband rather than father. There are two middle ages Hebrew manuscripts found in Italy that have the Matthew's Joseph down as Mary's father as well.

@@Feraeond welcome. Just watched Skip Heitzig and he explains it much better, though. It's 47 minutes long but if you're looking for an answer to the question he explains it thoroughly.
Hi, atheist here! I literally just wasted the time it took to watch that video because you didn't debunk ONE single biblical contradiction. Like whether Jairus's daughter was sick (Mark 5) or already dead (Matthew 9) when he came to Jesus. Whether Jesus stood before Pilate on the day OF Passover (like Mark says) or the day BEFORE Passover (like John says). Whether Jesus went into the wilderness for 40 days "immediately" after his baptism (Mark) or attended the wedding in Cana 3 days after his baptism (John). Whether the men traveling with Paul (at the time of his conversion) heard a voice (Acts 9) or heard no voice (Acts 22). There are more, but I don't want to make this comment too long. All of your reasoning is just support for a presuppositional way of thinking. If someone already believes the Bible is true and the inerrant word of God, then maybe the things you presented here could potentially strengthen that belief (assuming that aren't skeptical enough to question any of it). But not one word of what was said will do anything at all to convince a Bible denier that these contradictions may actually not be contradictions. They definitely are. Nice try. Try harder.
Mark: v22 vs. v35; Matthew v18 vs. 24 - the girl was still alive at first, but died shortly after. Jesus will bring her back to life.|| Mark vs. John re Passover: when does a day start for Jews vs. Gentiles? ||Acts: they heard a voice vs. they heard the voice (one can hear, but not understand what is being said)|| I hope this helps. May the Lord Jesus bless you.
Hello, just wanted to point out that the book of Mark is written chronologically while John is written topically. There is no contradiction, just different ways to present a collaborative account.
This content is educational: thank you. HOWEVER, the jumpy/jagged editing makes everything seem speeded up. Please in future: not so many sudden edits. Let the audio 'breathe'. Real speakers take pauses.
10:10 This is a travesty. On the screen at this timestamp is the literal definition of a contradiction. Look at the two verses. They state entirely different things. That is a contradiction. From google, the definition of contradiction is: "a combination of statements, ideas, or features of a situation that are opposed to one another."
*Even though you were probably made to believe that the bible can never be changed and that God wouldn't allow it, He actually only promised to protect His word until the last days. Daniel 12:4 & 12:9 and Revelation 22:10 He promised to send a famine of hearing His word in the last days too, and that we won't be able to find it anywhere in Amos **8:11**-12. In Daniel 7:25 God said that He would give the AC power to "change times and laws" for a short time which we now know meant history, laws of physics and scripture. The famine for hearing God's word has already been sent! Because when hearing "pastors" today, you're hearing some of Satan's words mixed in with God's words **_UNAWARE!_** This truth shines a light on people and exposes who the WHEAT and the tares are. 👉WHEAT ALWAYS react the same way, they immediately investigate to PROVE if this is true or not, find out it is and start warning their brothers and sisters because they LOVE truth and OBEY God's commandment to "prove all things". 👉Tares ALWAYS react the same way too, they quote scriptures and argue instead of looking into the videos offered as proof.* *The tares are being divided from the WHEAT and the famine for hearing the words of God has been sent! Our bibles will never be taken from us like we used to believe, they have all just been changed by Satan into his "rat poison." Rat poison is 99.95% corn, and even though the rats love it, it is 100% fatal for every rat that eats it. If you are still reading ANY bible now without knowing a LOT about what the thousands of supernatural changes in it are, Satan is laughing at you! Soon Amos **8:12** will be fulfilled like **8:11** already has, because they are going to cut our lights! The ONLY place you can still find God's words without risking reading some of Satan's mixed in unaware is in the videos DOCUMENTING the changes or in written lists of the documented changes like the one at the web site (amos)(8)(.)(org). I urge EVERYONE to open up your bible and watch as many as you can NOW! There will be time to read Satan's rat poison later if you want. I will never read mine again, and haven't for 7 years. It gives me the creeps just looking at it like if I was looking at a Ouija board on my bookshelf or something, so it will stay in a box in my closet. I learned so much about this it disgusts me! There are thousands of changes, they're on every page, many are ridiculously obvious and blasphemous, and they are ongoing!!* *The first few short films are just about Isaiah 11:6, and could easily prove it was changed in any court of law in the world.

Wonderful video -- What is sad is that many atheists who come forth claiming a "supposed contradiction" in the Bible don't really "want" an answer or explanation. When you correctly explain away the error they are quoting, they never say "Wow, thank you for explaining that to me, I just learned something!" But rather, they just go look for another supposed contradiction to "showcase." Peter Ruckman did an excellent book on the "Supposed contradictions in the King James Bible."
What’s sad is that theists believe in a book of fiction written by Iron Age goat herders which has been proven wrong time and time again. You don’t “want” truth. You want an imaginary sky daddy.
@@Doc-Holliday1851 Yes, thank you for the offer. I am struggling with the inerrancy of scripture. There are a few contradictions that are bothering me. But most notably, the Christmas story. Luke says that Joseph came to Bethlehem from his home in Nazareth. Because of Quirinus's census. But Matthew says Jesus was born under Herod the Great, (who massacred children because of the birth) who died ten years before Quirinus's census. Quirinus only came to Judea to replace Herod's son Archelaus who had been banished. Matthew goes on to claim Archelaus is the reason Joseph moved to Nazareth after coming back from Egypt. This is all very confusing. I would appreciate your help! 😅
@@chaosreality7029 Well the truth is we don't actually know when Herod died or when Quirinus became governor and conducted his census. Josephus writes about it but never mentions any date. It is down purely to interpretation and theory as to what time period this occurred. I wouldn't call scripture into question over something that is so debatable. If, on the other hand, scripture said that Jesus split the moon in half and the moon is currently intact then I'd definitely call scripture into question.
@@Doc-Holliday1851 "Well the truth is we don't actually know when Herod died or when Quirinus became governor and conducted his census." So, no answer and no debunk, just "we don't know". I can also "debunk" absolutely everything that way. That's not how you solve contradictions.
@@betaorionis2164 It is a debunk because the claim is that the timelines dont line up. The truth is we don't know. The claim is objectively not true. I don't have to provide dates of my own to show that the dates we do have are based wholly on speculation and in no way set in stone.
There is however objective truth. In my opinion, too much work has to be done to reconcile certain contradictions. For true believers, no work (no matter how seemingly far fetched) is too great.
What are "all scriptures"? All the scripture from that time? All the scripture written by the authers of the Bible? All the scripture that was selected into your favorite version of the Bible?
Most (if not all) of the older bibles I’ve looked at do not say “All scripture is given by inspiration of God…”, but rather, “All scripture given by inspiration of God is profitable…”. Big difference.
How do you know it’s the word of god? I’m pretty sure people wrote all of it, and we don’t even know their names. The gospels are almost completely anonymous…
@@Oskyosky2009Why are you here? Why are you so obsessed with us Christians? Do we get under your skin that much? Or are we that wonderful? It has to be one of the two. Which is it?
The Christian saints accepted the contradictions, seeing that the New Testament was an improvement on the myths and stories of the Old Testament and that is why our religion is Christianity and not Judaism.
I definitely was attacked yesterday, not face to face, but in social media. I was sharing Daily Strength and Jesus Calling devotionals and prayers from books. I didn’t feel discouraged by their hatred towards God and Christianity, I just felt annoyed.

THANK YOU, I hear people argue about the location of the Garden of Eden, and I always think about the fact that it was before the flood, and that we can not possibly expect to be able to find the location. Noah probably looked out upon the landscape and decided to name the Euphrates and Tigris rivers after the original rivers from before the flood. Like how people will name a city after another, York -> New York.
I have NEVER understood why people think that the earth would be even remotely similar after the flood, if you believe in the bible you have to understand that the flood destroyed the old world. Lands ripped apart, layers and layers and layers of sediment containing the tsunami remains of animals swept away... where Noah landed, was the new location of humanity. Before.. only God knows.
I completely agree with you! Plus, I tend to wonder if most of what has been the dry land, post-flood, might have originally been the seabed, pre-flood; and vice versa, if most of what has been the seabed, post-flood, might have originally been the dry land lived on by Adam and his antediluvian children (so that, for instance, for ought we know, the garden of Eden may well now be at the bottom of the Sargasso Sea, or the Mariana Trench). A global inversion, so to speak. Not saying I think that was the case, or that anything leads me to think it was (though, on the other hand, I don't know that any of the Biblical data contradicts it). But, if God has a sense of humor, He surely could have done so...all the while making sure man will never locate Eden short of His direct revelation of it!
The Garden of Eden is a spiritual garden located in Paradise. The banishment of the fallen angels was initially to Paradise where that well known event took place. It was following that further act of disobedience that the physical creation of the earth as the highest level of Hell was necessary as part of God's Mysterious Plan of Redemption.

There's a UA-cam page that concentrates on nothing but showing alleged contradictions in the Bible, often using mocking cartoons to try and get a laugh (humor is a tool people use to get you to like what they post). I was challenged to watch them and respond, and I did, and I enjoyed it as they were all SO EASY to refute! I have read the Bible cover to cover several times and studied it in depth (not bragging, just stating facts) and so it was easy for me to refute them. I went into reading God's word to learn the truth. They go in looking for errors (this is also what God's word refers to when it comes to looking into God's word with an "unholy curiosity", if you're looking for contradictions, that's exactly what that is, you have evil intent) and they find errors because they don't understand what they're reading and they haven't read it all. It was actually an interesting challenge and I highly recommend you ALL go looking for these contradiction videos and then refute them publicly, showing off how foolish they are. It will sharpen your knowledge of the scriptures and you may just help someone else out there who could be duped by these lies into understanding the truth.

As you know, in Genesis are the correct, God-breathed answers to these two, interesting questions:
1. *What is earth's all-time lowest, greater-than-0 human population number?* Answer: *1 individual* (namely, Adam).
2. *What is earth's all-time lowest, greater-than-1 human population number?* Answer: *2 individuals* (namely, Adam
and Eve).
Have fun trying to get any Darwin cheerleader to answer either of these questions. The Darwin cheerleader learns very quickly how utterly worthless to him is his falsely so-called "science" ("science" is what he asininely terms his vacuous Darwinistspeak) when it comes to a confrontation with such questions. I mean, what's he going to do? Answer them respectively, "1 individual" and "2 individuals"? Obviously he's not going to do _that,_ since those are the same answers God gives in His Word, and he's a fist-clenching, dyed-in-the-wool rejecter and denier of God's Word. In short, what it comes down to is that he is forced into silence regarding these questions, pretending as though he never heard them asked, since he, as a Darwin cheerleader, has not a shred of hope of ever responding rationally to them.
ANSWERS IN GENESIS needs to stop associating Science with a SCIENTIFIC WORLDVIEW.
There is no such thing as "secular" Science anymore than their is "Christian" science. Science is a METHOD and it seeks TRUTH.
While it's true than the NEW ATHEISM is thankfully failing and THEISM back on the rise, saying the Earth is 6000 years old and ignoring the fossil record isn't needed to believe in GOD ALMIGHTY and JESUS CHRIST as the redeemer of mankind!!
ANSWERS IN GENESIS makes alot of mistakes and tells alot of UNTRUTHS (not sure if these are intentionally lies or just ignorance) but GOD is the GOD of Science, just as GOD is the Almighty Creator GOD and author of the BIBLE. All this said, we don't have to tell UNTRUTHS to push for JESUS CHRIST!! The Earth is ancient and GOD made many life forms along the way before GOD made MODERN MAN and made modern man in the IMAGE of GOD!!
The EARTH is 4.5 Billion years old, any Christian PhD Geologist and Christian PhD Astronomers will verify this!! This isn't CONTESTED fact, it's TRUTH!!

Sometimes we gloss over the word substance in the verse...Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Substance in the greek is hypostasis. Hypo means below and stasis means to hold or stand. It literaly means to hold or stand under. We can visualize this, as in a building, like a foundation or piling or column on which the building is supported. So faith is not just some willy-nilly belief floating around in the clouds. It is a belief born out of physical and spiritual evidence that God gives us so that we have a "reaasonable expecation" that supports our belief. We hope for eternal life and more importantly we hope for a loving relationship with our creator. He has given copius evidence that this is true.....sub - stance... stand under...Understand?
Christ is our firm foundation. All other ground is sinking sand.
Faith is the most dishonest position to hold.

2 Timothy 3:16,17 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

This entire video is a lovely example of apologetics. Like when he discussed the 4 different accounts of the number of angels in the gospels.

On March 26th 2022,
just past midnight,
I was restless in bed,
my limbs became numb & tingly,
my chest became tight,
& my heart felt like it was being crushed.
So I sang out to God and Jesus,
about my pain, my feelings,
my faults and my inabilities.
As I sang, I began to feel like a river,
& a hand was on my back,
it's fingers where skimming the surface of the waters,
separating the waters,
causing ripples through my body.
Then the hand reached inside my chest,
lit my heart on fire,
& the heat moved like waves through my body.
When I was done singing,
all the pain was gone,
& I looked at the clock,
it was past 1am,
I had sang near an hour.
Then the voice of my guardian angel called my name from above,
& there was a hymn of energy in the air,
the same hymn I hear in my dreams of God.
Glory, Honor, blessings, thanks and praise to the Lord my God,
for healing my heart during a heart attack!
Hallelujah to the Lord my God for healing my heart!
Hallelujah for His son Jesus for saving my soul!
Hallelujah for every day!
Hallelujah for every breath!
The Lord is Faithful and true!
May the Lord Bless your hearts,
so that you have the will and strength to turn from selfish sins,
and flee from the slaveries of the flesh!
Thank you for sharing this is Great! Glory be to God🎊🎊
Hallelujah to the Holy Spirit who empowers you

*"can you give me one example where a mutation has added new genetic information?"*
To my understanding, mutation generate new genetic information, that's the point of calling it mutation. New information in the form of new states of biomolecules, makes the DNA to do something different than it did before. Here no information was added (increased) in the genome, but genome information has changed.
In DNA ´information´ means the specific physical states of biomolecules that determine how living organisms function.
If the information changes, DNA changes, and what is does change.
*Now, talking about if is possible to INCREASE the information on genomes, an answer I read was:*
Gene duplication followed by divergence is a well-known example of mutation that increases information in the genome. This process is a key driver of evolutionary innovation.
What basically happens is that in a cell division, a segment of a DNA containing a gene is duplicated. With time the duplicated genes can accumulate mutations, yet still perform their necessary functions. These mutations lead to the gene acquiring a new function or a modified version of the original function. The genome now contains two genes where there was originally only one, each serving different roles. This way the information content of the genome has increased.
*About the "pause" in Dawkins answer:*
What was asked to Richard Dawkins was this: "can you give us an example of a genetic mutation or an evolutionary process which can be seen to increase the information in the genome?"
And he didn't pause to think for an answer, he paused because the interviewers there did not posed as creationists when they agreed with the interview. He paused because he was about to end the interview, but he was pledged to continue since the people were from Australia or something like that, and travelled all the way just to interview him. So after agreeing to continue, they went to another topic but that was cut out. He does answer this question in his books, but I never read them.
I appreciate your diligence, intelligence, and commitment. As for the people who call out all of the supposed contradictions in the Bible… not really something I focus on.

Might I suggest other fantasy novels to read? Perhaps a good sci fi? Wizards can be cool, although Gandalf had quite a bit more powers than jesus, what kind of power is healing the blind when you can blind orks using a staff?
@Oskyosky2009 do you know the difference is between a work of fiction and a historical account? One is real the other isn't. Despite what you may want to believe, Jesus did exist. And there are eyewitnesses who saw him perform miracles.
Gandalf is a fictional character, Jesus is a real person. Regardless if you want to believe otherwise.
@@_fire_fox_1152 Please get your facts right. Jesus may have been a real person (or perhaps the stories are based on a real person), but there are no eye-witness accounts. Stories about eye-witnesses do not constitute eye-witness accounts.
@@BruceFox-Lefriche Actually, virtually every scholar to ever live, as well as ancient historical scholars are 100% certain that Jesus not only existed, but even was crucified, and we even have reasonable evidence to support the truth of the resurrection, with the empty tomb. If the disciples were hallucinating, and they really didn't see Jesus, and were just making the whole thing up, wouldn't it be easier for the authorities to just have people check the Tomb? wouldn't it be easier for them to send a batallion of troops, open the door of the tomb, and show that The dead Jesus was there the whole time? but no, We historically have an empty Tomb! the Phariees and other officials simply responded saying that the disciples stole the body... somehow, but that couldn't be possible, because The Romans positioned soldiers in front of the Tomb, with a huge stone rolled in the front. Impossible to get past if these crazed disciples just wanted to steal their master's body. And if you really are going to stick with the idea that it was hallucination, what drug where all the disciples smoking then? How did all of them see Jesus? The same vision. I think it would be a greater miracle that rising from the dead to say that the 500 witnesses who saw Jesus' bodily resurrection were all having the same hallucination. But let's assume this somehow happened, ok. Or, better yet, let's say that the disciples stole the body, and convinced everyone else that Jesus had risen. Ok, fine. The disciples, those who were personally with Jesus, and many others, were led to their deaths. The most gruesome, awful, horrific ends a human could imagine. They were skinned alive, sawn in two, burned, beheaded, crucified, or fed to wild animals. Do you REALLY think that these guys would suffer these horrible, horrific deaths, based on something they knew wasn't true? Based on a lie they concocted to, what? Get rich? seriously, what do you people think these guys had to gain? The bible had to be written by SOMEBODY, and we have valid historical proof that much of it is from the sources tradition credits them with, so why would this happen if it was all a fake?

God communicates in many ways with mankind and that includes the scriptures. He first wrote the 10 commandments Himself.
Another example is from Jer 36:1-6 KJV - 1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, [that] this word came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, 2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. 3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin. 4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and *Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book* . 5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I [am] shut up; I cannot go into the house of the LORD: 6 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, *which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD* in the ears of the people in the LORD'S house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.

We can understand what He (God) has given us in His Holy Scriptures through study and prayer. To say that we cannot come to understand all of what God has given us in His Scriptures is to say that He did not do a good enough job in his Word for His children to be able to understand Him. The "not knowing all of that which He has given us in the Bible" is due to our lack of devoting ourselves to His word not on Him being clear enough. The key to all of this is to study and show oneself approved, be in his Word and "study" not just read, you must dig into the Scriptures. We cannot fully know God, but we can truly know God and that is by His authoritative, inerrant, infallible, necessary, and sufficient Word. Enjoyed the video!

"God enjoys hiding somethings from us..." The answer to the that is in Proverbs 25:2 "It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter." It is not a matter of if we knew everything, we would be God. It is a matter of Him giving us challenges. We have to really WANT to know the answers. God is no proponent of the attitude, "There are some things that man was not meant to know."
Why do skeptics troll Christian sites? What is the payoff/benefit/gain? What makes trolling the highest and best use of their time?
The answer is easy - to help spread the truth through logic and reason. It is disconcerting to see people declare that they love Jesus and then display hate to their fellow man. This shows that people are truly not being honest with themselves about their own values. One way to help people see reality is to gently let them realize that the bible is not inerrant. Careful review of the bible lets one realize that it is a combination of both fact and fiction. This realization does not mean that there is no God nor does it mean that the bible should not be read for the powerful inspiration that it provides. Everyone should read the bible.
@@leeleonard2746 Oh, I understand that skeptics believe that they are smarter, wiser, and more rational than Christians. What I don't understand is how do they, personally, benefit from their trolling? Does trolling give them something superior to all other possible uses of their time?

@@leeleonard2746 I am trying to understand _why_ skeptics "...spread the truth through logic and reason." How are their lives enriched for having "...spread the truth..."?

@@bbjornr One can judge a tree by its fruit, so I figured the Q'ran was not the word of God.

Later said that he was punned to the wall of a cave three times by a demon who forced a message on him. He told his Catholic inlaws about it, they convinced him that it was actually the angel Gabriel, and thats just the beginning.

If you believe in God being all powerful and literally spoke the universe into being, then how is it difficult to believe anything written in his word?

From what I gather from nonbelievers that aren't full of hatred is mostly scientific. They believe in evolution and a universe made over 10 billion years ago because that's what they were taught. They're either completely unaware of the scientific evidence against their theory, or, they are aware and choose not to believe it. Other reasons they've told me is that you can't see God. They don't understand that mankind is fallen and disconnected from God which is why Jesus existed to reconnect humankind back with God. And one other thing is they want to know who created God. They don't understand He's infinite, eternal and has simply always existed. It's difficult for some people to grasp the eternal aspect of Gods nature.

The name, meanwhile, doesn't matter, especially when it doesn't actually match the birth year of Christ. Call it Anno Domini or the Common Era, it's still starting at a time that isn't Jesus' birthdate and doesn't _need_ to be so heavily intertwined with Christian mythology.

When an atheist or other religion tells me a so called contradiction im just thinking so ive been reading the Bible all this time and you found a contradiction I did not see. You must be a diligent reader of the Bible! They just pick up stuff randomly from people who dont do research
Most raised to be fundamentalist just refuse to acknowledge any contradictions.
It's the easiest way to maintain their beliefs.
Maybe they're using on of the many false translations, some which do have errors. Truth In Genesis - Why use the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible
@@Gek1177 There is no contradiction that affects your salvation. Atheists throw the baby out with the bath water to maintain their beliefs.
A contridiction is having two statements of the same idea, but they're both saying two different things. You can Google contridictions of the Bible and look for yourself - that's what I'm doing. Some aren't, but some definitely are, regardless whether or not it's significant or not; 700 vs 1000 is a contridiction. Like the Prophet Gad telling David that Adonai says three years of famine in one account, and 7 years of famine in another account; that's by definition a contridiction. Now you may think like me, it's written by humans, as the Bible doesn't shy away from that fact - though guided by the Holy Spirit. However, if a prophet is saying two different things, is he really a prophet? If the Bible is true, we MUST be fearless and search out for the answer, because truth is truth regardless. If we don't, we don't really care about truth, but feeling comfortable in a religion.
The Bible is the word of God. He chose each and every word carefully. Every word is true. And no word contradicts another word. Some word are figurative, and some words are literal. Both are true. It is not a history book like we would write. It is His story. It is God writing to us about God. To our tiny minds, God is a mystery. It makes sense that we wouldn't understand everything.
But thru it we can see and know God. Thankyou for your word, God. Amen.

When someone tells me 'The Bible is full of contradictions' I ask them two questions:
1. Contradictions, huh? Name the one that MOST bothers you. and, once I've dealt with that ''contradiction'' ...
2. Is THAT the only, and REAL, reason you don't believe in the Bible?
Most times, I find that at some point the protestor against the Bible will do something that always proves my second point:
1. They shift the goal posts... moving on to some other perceived or claimed ''problem''... because...
2. The REAL reason that people don't reject Jesus and the Bible is NOT because of some perceived ''contradiction''. There's something else at work.
The age at which Ahazia took the throne is given twice, in two different books. Each book gives a different age. This is a clear contradiction. They cannot both be correct.
You know what's funny? Christians act the exact same way as every other religion when their book is criticized. Except yours in the only true one of course 🤣
Oh yeah?
Care to explain why God is supposedly omnibenevolent but also creates evil?
Proverbs 16:4 says, "The LORD has made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble".
Why would an all good God need to create evil?

Answer:
1 John 1:5 KJV
[5] This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
There is no darkness in God at all. Rather we may understand that or not.
God created the person, and that person choose evil. Therefore that wicked person who choose evil, is for the day of wrath. Plus God has another plan for those who choose evil, for them to repent.
This also what proves my point: Acts 17:30-31 KJV
[30] And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: [31] because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
God's is still loving became He have a way for the wicked to come to Him.
So if He judges them He is just because He made a way for all to come to Him through Jesus His Son.
@@Peony-wg5jc the passage literally says he made everything, including evil peoole...
You just proved a contradiction, God has no darkness in him, but creates evil.
If God didn't make evil than he did not make everything, thus someone else did, but that means he isn't omnipotent. Another contradiction

Not going to even bother refuting you in the other apparent contradictions when right off the bat, you apparently missed the fall of man, after which God is displeased with men. So, because your first point shows a lack of basic reading comprehension, I'm not going to take you seriously when you fail to understand that God is sometimes spoken of according to His Nature and sometimes according to human terms to help us understand.
God bless your team
I agree with these defenses, but that's partly because I'm a believer in Jesus Christ as being infallible! I can see that some of these wouldn't, couldn't fly with non-believers!
God's word is completely reliable. Archeologists actually use it as primary source material.
Do you know there is no archeological evidence for the Exodus?
@@markduell2468 did you know you are wrong? You haven't been keeping up to date on everything.
If you were you would realize that Bible archaeologists have been discovering a lot of new things about the Exodus. You're behind on the times there, Mark.
@@markduell2468 what evidence would you explect to find?
@@refuse2bdcvd324 Actual evidence that hundreds of thousands of people were in an area for 40 years.
@@RobertA-up9urwhen was evidence for the Exodus discovered ? Last I checked, which was a few years ago, teams of Jewish archaeologists, some of the leading archaeologists, said that there's no evidence for the Exodus. I'll try to find sources for that again.
Concerning Judas, I believe he fell down from where he was hanging during the earthquake that struck when Jesus died. If the quake was strong enough to rip the curtain of the temple and split rock, it could have caused judas’ swinging body to fall and be split open!
Someone else talked about this and said that the rope could have been too weak and his alive self fell and splat
Isaiah 7:14 is fulfilled in chapter 8.
The best answer I can give you for historical fulfillments, is that the New Testament writers and early Christians didn't explained the Tenakh or Hebrew Bible (text like Isaiah 7) in a mathematical way or in a rigorous precise literal manner. That was not their intentions and it caused them to be branded heretics by the Jewish authorities. Their manner of interpretation was always to parallel (types and shadows) the meaning of what was written to their modern day. 🤔And of course ... this created dual interpretations of prophecies, and the types in the Old Testament were foreshadowed in the New Testament in grandeur and spiritual meanings as to what is coming. For example the sacrifice of the lamb foreshadowed the sacrifice of Jesus. Circumcision foreshadowed baptism. The Passover feast foreshadowed Holy Communion. The Sabbath day of rest foreshadowed rest in Christ and His gospel work. The Ark of the Covenant foreshadowed Mary and the cheribims the angels in heaven. And we can go on ... And this is how many Messianic prophecies of the Old Testament foreshadowed were fulfilled in the New Testament, and still others to be fulfilled until the second coming of Christ ...
Now ... of course my dear reader, Orthodox or Rabbinic Jewish scholars will not endorse the New Testament interpretation method (also demonstrated by Peter in Acts 2 using Joel's prophecy).☝🏽 Nevertheless, Christians truly believe and hold that this method of interpretation is INSPIRED. For the Spirit of God is able to add and subtract different dimensions of meanings from His own scriptural works, move people's hearts, and apply the scriptures to our modern times ... so as to bring about the salvation of souls.

bro👍 good job, of late 10 12 contradictions in a video form, was bothering and used ponder try find solutions, as was scrolling I got you, wud u pl give them the rebut, make their doubts clear or debunk them👍😅
My internet router fried while I was watching this lol Thanks for the share.
Thank God for his inerrant word preserved in the Authorized Version King James Bible.
What a silly thing to say. My favorite word of god is “hey lemme spit in your eye”
Above comment. Such .prejudice. Truth in anybible
@@margaretrobinson-sn2nb Lol. They say conflicting things. You can't even write correctly.
2 Samuel 10:18 and 1 Chronicles 19:18 both speak of David slaying the Syrians cahriots. The first lists 700 slain, the second lists 7,000 slain. This is a contradiction. I believe in God maintaining the message of the Gsopel, but to say there are no contradictions is a stretch.
Yeah, but that doesn't acknowledge human error. It isn't an error in the Bible, it is an error in the translation, or maybe in the interpretation - perhaps there was another instance not recorded, or maybe it was disputed at the time, but I believe there is a logical explanation in every event recorded on the Biblr
Right out of the gate you poorly define contradiction. It's making a statement claiming truth, and then also claiming it as false. It is making a statement as truth, and then making another statement as truth, but the two statements together cannot be both true at the same time. Example "The sky is blue." "The molecules in the air make the sky green." I have now committed a contracictory statement to the first. He also mentions Mary Magdalen, but not all accounts have Mary Magdalen, and some have a different Mary. That is a contradiction. There's also the reason Joseph and Mary left their home. Was it for the Census of Quirenos, or was it for King Herod. During King Herod's reign, there was no census. That wasn't until years after Herods death. What about the commandment to not steal? Jesus told a man to go into town and take a donkey. If the owner asks why he's taking it, tell him the Lord needs it. Thats theft. No matter how you look at it, they are to take this donkey with or without permission from the owner. We do have four accounts if the gospels, but two of them are nearly identical in every word, which like you said, is suspect to the actual truth of it. There's alsl several "non canonical" gospels that didn't make it in under the idea that they didn't fit the narrative well enough. The church admitted this. To study? What happebed to not rely on your knowledge but to rely on your faith? "Trust in the lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." Your first point on common mistakes is wrong. You never assume the author is telling the truth. You can choose to do so for the sake of ease, sure. But that's not a good or valid reason to believe in anything. If there is a claim that is made, it must hsve evidence to support that claim that is independent. That means it supports only itself and no other contradictory claim, can be verified and is true. What would the bible be guilt or innocent of? Its a horrible analogy. They who make the claim have the burden of proof. Not those who don't believe the claim. Also, nonbelievers didnt say the Hitittes didn't exist, they said that we shouldn't take the claim as true until there is evidence of such. And guess what type of science found the evidence. Archaeology. Guess who dated it? Archaelogists. The same people answers in gensis claims cant accurately date things. How do the four corners of the earth mean the four cardknak directions? East and west is just one endless circle that is based on location. It's relative. North is relative to the north cap, south is relative to the south cap, so they at least have stopping points, but east and west don't. Its just a circle. Also, how did you conclude this? Or did you just pull it out from nowhere like God did the universe? Yes, every person who has ever criticized the bible for endorsing slavery, telling you how to buy, sell, trade, beat and even have...uh...less than consensual entertainment with... slaves. And dont give me "Chattel" vs "bonded servitude." It calls them property. That's what Chattel means. You claim the Bible is written by man inspired by God. Well, the only animals we know that can write, have wrote and still write are humans, so ill say there's enough evidence for the first half. But how do you know the bible was inspired by God? Could someone write something and think they were inspired by god? How do you prove who really was? I have no idea what the writinf styles of the bible have to do in rerence to what we're talking about here. It doesnt matter what was okay back then, the reason we have the rules on citation is precisely because of the lack of being able to identify where quotes come from. As an example, the very first line of the bible is a copy of another religious text. Those two verses you showed are an actual contradiction. Like, even the was you explained it is still contradictory because that is entirely made up. The bible doesnt say that they then purchased the field with the money Judas refused but technically it's Judas, therefore he bought it. That doesn't make sense logically either. If I stole your debit and spent the money, that doesn't mean you bought me a car. It means i purchased a car with stolen money. You also make up a story entirely made up, once again, in order to not make it a contradiction. You made thst story up. The bible did not claim that was the vase. That's still 100% a contradiction. Round numbers are fine. As long as they match relative historical numbers and can be verified, i can accept them as truth. Otherwise, i just don't know. How do we know the original text is inerrant if we dont have the original texts? Also, the sections that we do are often still filled with contradictions. You're confident when it was written originally that it was inerrant...why? You have no reason to believe that. Circular reasoning. The bible is true because God made it. Which god? The god of the bible. How do we know he is real? The bible says so. "Just believe" is not a good reason. Just believe me. I'm right. Faith is beleivng in somethinf without good reason. If you jsd a good reason, you eluld give the reason, making faith useless. I don't want to destroy your belief. I care about truth, and I want everyone to care about truth because evidence shows that the more true things you believe in, the better society runs as well as the happier the people are. Every mutation is new information. Easy answer. Evolution is a fact. Its crazy how people miss this. Theories. Explain. Facts. Theories are sets of explanations bscked by the best facts amd evidence we have for OBSERVED PHENOMENA. Gravity is a fact, the thory of gravity explains it. Cells are factually real. Cell theory explains cells. Germs are actually factually real, yet still, germ theiry explains germs. Theories. Explain. Favts.
Im done now.
Also, I am stealing that burden of proof part. So many people that I have talked to about my lack of faith say that a god of infinite power could easily fill any contradiction in the Bible. Then they need to prove that that god exists
Hey, I really appreciate this...This may save my families life..I'd say more about the personal details, but it's the internet. Never realized how low of a bar the bible set for god and me about god. A all-knowing god wouldn't use a word that means something entirely different than the definition of that word. ya use a different word/correct yourself, duh. Cheers, mate. Thank you for taking time out of your day to write this.
Faith is choosing to trust and then respond to situations from that place of trust. I trust that Jesus is who He says He is and that He will do what He says He will do. Everything Jesus did happened and everything He says is true. Jesus is coming back to earth to finally bring end to the evil we see now and this earth. All those who knows Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour will live forever with Him on the new earth and new heaven where there will be no more tears and no evil. Everyone who doesn't want to live with Christ, whoever does not want to place their hope and faith in Jesus Christ to the very end will get what they want: a life without the presence of God, but without His presence you lose acess to love, peace, and all things good permanently. That life will be filled with everlasting torment. This is why the news of Jesus needs to be shared while there is still time. The opportunity to know Christ as your Lord and Saviour is open to you until your last breath or until Jesus has come back. The real question is will you let Jesus personally lead you to everlasting life? I don't need to know your answer, the answer can stay between you and God. If I am wrong then you have nothing to worry about but if what I said is true, then everyone's life is a stake. As for me and my household, I will serve Jesus Christ and wait on his promises.
@@tdcampbell7728 you realize that people cannot just *choose* to believe in something, right? If I told you the sky was green, you would say that the sky is blue. If I then said that all you had to do is choose to believe that the sky is green and then it would turn green, you would call me insane. And yet, that's the argument you're making for religion
@@tdcampbell7728 You're definition of faith is a useless definition. If I just trust that Gerald the magic giraffe will set us free in eternal peace of the infinite white room, it makes it no more valid than your claim of Jesus being true. Evidence is required for truth to have meaning. Otherwise, we would believe in any and everything that "feels" right to us, which is not how reality works. It doesn't matter whether I trust in gravity. It works. It doesn't matter whether I trust that atoms exist. They do. It doesn't matter if I trust in electrons being attracted to protons. They are.
You're statements about believing in Christ are just stupidly wrong as well. I was a devout Catholic who was desperately trying to to strengthen my connection with God. I believed he was talking to me and guiding me. He wasn't. I was. I realize this for myself. Maybe there is a God talking, I'm not sure. But if it is the Christian God, he's a monster and you shouldn't worship him. He allows slavery, he allows human sacrifice, he allows the murder of humans, he allows the genocide of peoples, and there's no good reason to even believe he's real in the first place.
He doesn't pause to take a breath, this brother. Bravo for the content!
I agree with the majority of what this influencer post. Mostly because they explain things according to scripture. Would love this channel to talk about the “rapture” in a scriptural narrative. Thank you for doing your best to spread the actual word and always looking forward to what y’all do produce to educate accordingly with scripture.

He didn't prove anything, he just stated that the contradictions, weren't contradictions. I guess because he says so? Then he brings up multiple theories, where Is the evidence for them? It seems to me that ones perception plays a significant role In the bible.
Also.. who said that All scripture was Inspired by God? I believe It's Paul that says this, correct? Not, Jesus?
For me, there are a lot of unanswered things, that I'm just now getting the privilege to explore.
Is God static? If so, doesn't that make the bible REALLY REALLY REALLY hard to explain to the younger generations? Considering they do have access to the world wide web after-all.
I pray Jesus shows me truth within this topic.
I'm searching for answers and I will continue to reflect on this. Thank you.
God bless.
It is encouraging to read you are seeking truth about God. How is it going?
@ Ups and Downs. I suppose that’s normal. Thanks for asking. How’s yours going?
@@IIMeanDeanII Going good. Ups and downs as well. To me it helps finding a time to dedicate to God. Helps you focus and also learn more.

@@brianmitchell8964 Are you saying there's a contradiction in those accounts?
I feel pretty goof about my knowledge of the Bible that I was able to answer or rationalize all of these supposed contradictions on my own. I'm grateful that God has always made me somewhat cynical and skeptical so I could address these things in my own and thus be better prepared.
That's because none of these that he looked at were actual contradictions, a real contradiction would be like whether the animals were created before or after man (Genisis 2:18-19, Genisis 1:25-27)
@@voltagestorm1787 Precisely. Watching this video, I was looking for the contridictions I hear most of, though admitedly the most people go for are the OT passages. I'm trying to figure this out myself, but you're absolutely right that this video really isn't addressing contridictions. He does address a few, but not everything he mentions is. :)
Yes exactly, so when I said there were 11 Jurors, that was accurate because there were 12 and you have to have 11 before 12, this is a super common way of speaking, totally 100%
I wish they had touched on the apparent contradiction of the two genealogies of Jesus. That is the most commonly raised one by critics, being the most difficult to resolve. Having dug into it extensively with two brothers, I'm rather confident at this point that Mary's father was also named Joseph and Matthew has been mistranslated to list Joseph as her husband rather than father, hence the generational miscount stating 14 generations where there is clearly only 13 if Joseph there is her husband rather than father. There are two middle ages Hebrew manuscripts found in Italy that have the Matthew's Joseph down as Mary's father as well.
Bill Mounce does an interesting video on it. If you watch it make sure and go to the end to hear his conclusion. Pretty good watch.
@zerosteel0123 Thank you for the tip! I've tried to do a search for it and am coming up empty using my best keyword guesses. Do you recall the relevant video title?
@@Feraeond it is called "Bible contradictions: Jesus genealogy"
@zerosteel0123 Fantastic! Thank you brother.
@@Feraeond welcome. Just watched Skip Heitzig and he explains it much better, though. It's 47 minutes long but if you're looking for an answer to the question he explains it thoroughly.
Hi, atheist here! I literally just wasted the time it took to watch that video because you didn't debunk ONE single biblical contradiction. Like whether Jairus's daughter was sick (Mark 5) or already dead (Matthew 9) when he came to Jesus. Whether Jesus stood before Pilate on the day OF Passover (like Mark says) or the day BEFORE Passover (like John says). Whether Jesus went into the wilderness for 40 days "immediately" after his baptism (Mark) or attended the wedding in Cana 3 days after his baptism (John). Whether the men traveling with Paul (at the time of his conversion) heard a voice (Acts 9) or heard no voice (Acts 22). There are more, but I don't want to make this comment too long. All of your reasoning is just support for a presuppositional way of thinking. If someone already believes the Bible is true and the inerrant word of God, then maybe the things you presented here could potentially strengthen that belief (assuming that aren't skeptical enough to question any of it). But not one word of what was said will do anything at all to convince a Bible denier that these contradictions may actually not be contradictions. They definitely are. Nice try. Try harder.
Mark: v22 vs. v35; Matthew v18 vs. 24 - the girl was still alive at first, but died shortly after. Jesus will bring her back to life.|| Mark vs. John re Passover: when does a day start for Jews vs. Gentiles? ||Acts: they heard a voice vs. they heard the voice (one can hear, but not understand what is being said)|| I hope this helps. May the Lord Jesus bless you.
Hello, just wanted to point out that the book of Mark is written chronologically while John is written topically. There is no contradiction, just different ways to present a collaborative account.
One contradiction is enough to prove that the bible does not tell the truth.
Above comment. But there isn't one

10:10 This is a travesty. On the screen at this timestamp is the literal definition of a contradiction. Look at the two verses. They state entirely different things. That is a contradiction. From google, the definition of contradiction is: "a combination of statements, ideas, or features of a situation that are opposed to one another."
*Even though you were probably made to believe that the bible can never be changed and that God wouldn't allow it, He actually only promised to protect His word until the last days. Daniel 12:4 & 12:9 and Revelation 22:10 He promised to send a famine of hearing His word in the last days too, and that we won't be able to find it anywhere in Amos **8:11**-12. In Daniel 7:25 God said that He would give the AC power to "change times and laws" for a short time which we now know meant history, laws of physics and scripture. The famine for hearing God's word has already been sent! Because when hearing "pastors" today, you're hearing some of Satan's words mixed in with God's words **_UNAWARE!_** This truth shines a light on people and exposes who the WHEAT and the tares are. 👉WHEAT ALWAYS react the same way, they immediately investigate to PROVE if this is true or not, find out it is and start warning their brothers and sisters because they LOVE truth and OBEY God's commandment to "prove all things". 👉Tares ALWAYS react the same way too, they quote scriptures and argue instead of looking into the videos offered as proof.*
*The tares are being divided from the WHEAT and the famine for hearing the words of God has been sent! Our bibles will never be taken from us like we used to believe, they have all just been changed by Satan into his "rat poison." Rat poison is 99.95% corn, and even though the rats love it, it is 100% fatal for every rat that eats it. If you are still reading ANY bible now without knowing a LOT about what the thousands of supernatural changes in it are, Satan is laughing at you! Soon Amos **8:12** will be fulfilled like **8:11** already has, because they are going to cut our lights! The ONLY place you can still find God's words without risking reading some of Satan's mixed in unaware is in the videos DOCUMENTING the changes or in written lists of the documented changes like the one at the web site (amos)(8)(.)(org). I urge EVERYONE to open up your bible and watch as many as you can NOW! There will be time to read Satan's rat poison later if you want. I will never read mine again, and haven't for 7 years. It gives me the creeps just looking at it like if I was looking at a Ouija board on my bookshelf or something, so it will stay in a box in my closet. I learned so much about this it disgusts me! There are thousands of changes, they're on every page, many are ridiculously obvious and blasphemous, and they are ongoing!!*
*The first few short films are just about Isaiah 11:6, and could easily prove it was changed in any court of law in the world. Open any bible to that verse and watch those films, (this is one of the two universal changes, the other is Luke 19:27) I don't make films btw, they were made by 6 other true followers of Jesus (TRUTH) who researched to find "residue" showing that it used to say "LION" instead of "wolf".*
*Watch all of the rest of the films for a good understanding of how this is perfectly fulfilling many end time prophecies that we had all previously misinterpreted simply because we had no idea they would be fulfilled supernaturally. It's funny how many people who claim to believe the bible just scoff if you talk about the supernatural. LOL But when people see absolute proof of this with their own eyes, their faith is strengthened greatly! You can read some of their testimonies on my COMMUNITY page.*
*Here are a couple examples of the replies I receive from the "WHEAT"...*
Hello Residue Junkie, my name is Tamara Dobson. God lead me to you through a call for an uprising. I just wanted you to know how blessed I have been through finding you. For awhile I thought I was losing my mind, because of the things that I was seeing and experiencing, that so many around me were apparently not seeing. And I couldn't understand how or why that would be, unless maybe, I was in fact losing my mind. About 2 years ago I was diagnosed with white matter disease, which I thought was a completely ridiculous notion, however alzheimers and dementia, as well as a vast laundry list of other mental degenerative disorders are associated with it. So I thought it was at least possible, however, that never set right with my spirit. Any way, I was thinking about you and hoping all is well with you and yours. I remember you mentioned that your health is not the best and I hope you are feeling better. But I mostly hope you're in good spirits and your faith is still strong . Much love and many prayers for you and yours, & God willing, I hope to meet you someday, so I can hug you and thank you in person for restoring & strengthening my faith .
john oz Yes residue junkie I was a backsliden Pastor, away from God for over 25 years. When I found out that Isaiah 11:6 had supernaturaly changed from a lion to a wolf. It spun me out, and as a result it brought me back to Christ. I have been back in the arms of Jesus for 12 months now. I see changes in the bible constantly now. For example, you can not find the words, "hallelujah, demons or wineskins" in the Old KJV bible anymore. Too many changes to go into. In Gen 1:1, the word heavens has changed to heaven. It no longer has the letter s in the word....
*To see proof of many of the changes plus all of the end time prophecies this is perfectly fulfilling, and to receive the greatest strengthening of faith you ever had, type in PROOF OF BIBLE CHANGE RESIDUE JUNKIE 1. God bless you all!!!*

The Bible never contradicts itself because it's inspired by God.
That is stupid. Period.
there are so many contradictions it's just false lol and you know it.
Wonderful video -- What is sad is that many atheists who come forth claiming a "supposed contradiction" in the Bible don't really "want" an answer or explanation. When you correctly explain away the error they are quoting, they never say "Wow, thank you for explaining that to me, I just learned something!" But rather, they just go look for another supposed contradiction to "showcase." Peter Ruckman did an excellent book on the "Supposed contradictions in the King James Bible."
What’s sad is that theists believe in a book of fiction written by Iron Age goat herders which has been proven wrong time and time again. You don’t “want” truth. You want an imaginary sky daddy.
Thank you, this was very helpful
Clickbait. Not as advertised. Debunked a small handful, without going into much detail. With a lot of standard preaching in-between.
which one would you like to have seen debunked?
@@Doc-Holliday1851 Yes, thank you for the offer. I am struggling with the inerrancy of scripture. There are a few contradictions that are bothering me. But most notably, the Christmas story. Luke says that Joseph came to Bethlehem from his home in Nazareth. Because of Quirinus's census. But Matthew says Jesus was born under Herod the Great, (who massacred children because of the birth) who died ten years before Quirinus's census. Quirinus only came to Judea to replace Herod's son Archelaus who had been banished. Matthew goes on to claim Archelaus is the reason Joseph moved to Nazareth after coming back from Egypt. This is all very confusing. I would appreciate your help! 😅
@@chaosreality7029 Well the truth is we don't actually know when Herod died or when Quirinus became governor and conducted his census. Josephus writes about it but never mentions any date. It is down purely to interpretation and theory as to what time period this occurred. I wouldn't call scripture into question over something that is so debatable. If, on the other hand, scripture said that Jesus split the moon in half and the moon is currently intact then I'd definitely call scripture into question.
@@Doc-Holliday1851 "Well the truth is we don't actually know when Herod died or when Quirinus became governor and conducted his census."
So, no answer and no debunk, just "we don't know". I can also "debunk" absolutely everything that way. That's not how you solve contradictions.
@@betaorionis2164 It is a debunk because the claim is that the timelines dont line up. The truth is we don't know. The claim is objectively not true. I don't have to provide dates of my own to show that the dates we do have are based wholly on speculation and in no way set in stone.
If you believe that there are no errors or contradictions in the bible then you'll find a way to prove yourself right.
Then he's lying?
If you believe there are errors and contradictions in the Bible then you’ll find a way to prove yourself right
There is however objective truth.
In my opinion, too much work has to be done to reconcile certain contradictions. For true believers, no work (no matter how seemingly far fetched) is too great.
What are "all scriptures"?
All the scripture from that time?
All the scripture written by the authers of the Bible?
All the scripture that was selected into your favorite version of the Bible?
Most (if not all) of the older bibles I’ve looked at do not say “All scripture is given by inspiration of God…”, but rather, “All scripture given by inspiration of God is profitable…”. Big difference.
Above comment. God is the author.He makes no mistakes all scripture means the whole bible not the book of Enoch and others these contradict the bible
Nice 👍, the word of God is awesome 😃
How do you know it’s the word of god? I’m pretty sure people wrote all of it, and we don’t even know their names. The gospels are almost completely anonymous…
@@Oskyosky2009Why are you here? Why are you so obsessed with us Christians?
Do we get under your skin that much? Or are we that wonderful?
It has to be one of the two.
Which is it?
The Christian saints accepted the contradictions, seeing that the New Testament was an improvement on the myths and stories of the Old Testament and that is why our religion is Christianity and not Judaism.
I'll have to watch this again!
Praise The Lord!
