How God Deals With Evil Without Destroying Humanity

- Опубліковано 26 сер 2015
- God is on a mission to remove evil from His good world, along with all of its corrosive effects. However, He wants to do it in a way that does not involve removing humans. In this video on sacrifice and atonement, we trace the theme of God’s “covering” over human evil through animal sacrifices that ultimately point to Jesus and his death and resurrection.

Please repent and find YHWH Elohim and keep the commandments in Exodus 20 and Leviticus 11.
Please read Exodus 20 and pray for forgiveness
2nd Corinthians 5:17
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”
[37] Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. [38] This is the first and great commandment. [39] And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. [40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Matthew 22:37-40

When a person sins, essentially they get into "karmic" debt. Eventually at a time of God's choosing, this debt will have to be repaid, and the person who got into the debt, will have to incur some sort of loss to pay for that karmic debt.
The Hebrew word “kaphar” in the Old Testament Bible is translated into English as atonement and it means “to cover.” To cover what? Our "karmic" debts. We have to cover our own debt for our sins according to the old testament.
And it's not just animal sacrifices that were used to cover (atone) our debt.
One of the offerings brought by a sinner was the korban minchah, which was made up of flour. We also find in the Torah that both incense and monetary donations served to atone for the people.
A person can fast and pray as a form of sacrifice as well, like when Jonah saved Nineveh from destruction. When we fast, we are sacrificing the pleasure we get from eating food. Prayers of repentance is sacrificing not only time, but our ego and pride because we have to humble ourselves before the Lord and beg for forgiveness.
Repentance is better than a regular animal sacrifice, we sacrifice our animal tendancies to God, it is an inner animal sacrifice. Sacrificing a real animal may cover karmic debt to an extent, but it doesn't break the habits that caused us to sin in the first place, so the cycle of debt and repayment like a never ending hampster wheel.
Repentance does more than covering debt, it transform our character to prevent us from incurring more debt by purifying us of unrighteouness. Changing our character internally breaks the cycle of karmic debt creation.
Thanks for share us some wisdom ❤

I like how you explain things. Though I have been an atheist for most of my life, purely because of my own view on Christianity was that it was primal. However you have changed my mind, and I will take more consideration when it comes to Christianity.

"If God were to remove evil, He'd have to remove all of us"
That's crazy and so profound and true
@Justin Schaefer
Then you would be gone. Because you wouldn't have free will and without that you're just a robot.
Erika Alvarenga atonement I’m realising means the continued price is paid (the account of the innkeeper leaving the beaten man suggests that his keep would be paid in full (grace, the blood I believe represents the money given until his return).
Therefore the beaten man was free to live (enjoy the benefits, at the other mans expense) until the day of his return. Which, I believe, will not be to far away
@Justin Schaefer Every part of us is harmful. We are corrupted to the very core of our being. We need to be cleansed and conformed to the image of Christ. Meaning the penalty of sin needs to be atoned for before we can be conformed. As it is now, we all have are in the image of corrupt Adam. There will be a day when the people of God will be conformed, but that day is not yet.
I beg to differ. Sure , we make mistakes. But to say humans are evil. IDK. Im fortunate to know some good people. Im even blessed enough to have some good humans in my family. Heck. I will go a step further and say I'm not evil either. I didnt say Im perfect. At all. But animal sacrifice and sprinkling blood and the significance of this cleansing. Uh. No Way. I dont care who or when but there is no good/right time for that. Sorry G. Youre mistaken. Again.
@@davidrogers3253 You did not make a claim of being a Christian, but it's evident, to me, that you are not one. To suggest that A) Mankind are not evil, are not in need of redemption and B) that sacrifices were some how wrong tells me as much.
Things to consider... is road rage simply a 'mistake'? Is lying to make yourself look better or to get out of just consequences for your own actions simply a 'mistake'? Is wishing to get revenge or wishing evil upon someone simply a 'mistake'. Doing things out of selfish motivations is not making a 'mistake', but is willing evil. Humanity does not simply make 'mistakes' they seek each others harm for selfish gain. No one can be a good person and not understand their own capacity for evil. The issue is, even understanding that capacity can't make you good. It only serves to show how evil our intentions truly are. Think about lustful desire. It is objectifying to women (or men). It is a devaluing of humanity and is evil.
Any time we fall short of absolute good, it is evil and inexcusable because we know better. For you to tell me that you do not see the evil in your own heart says to me that you either A) ignore your own evil, B) justify it or C) Have never sought to understand your own motives and intentions. Only when you see your evil can you understand the need or redemption only found in the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Crying right now. Don't know why I'm so emotional right now. I just finished reading my bible, I'm currently on the old testament at the part when people used to sacrifice animals as atonement for sins. And I just appreciate it so much, realizing what God and Jesus Christ has really done for us, making atonement for our sins completely so that we don't have to make these sacrifices anymore for ourselves. I'm out of words. I'm crying out of gratefulness and overwhelmed with the Love that the LORD had shown us at the cross.

How y’all clearly explained atonement from the OT to today in less then 7 minutes is beyond me! God bless the entire team 🙏🏾
Agreed!!!!!
Amen!!
Christianity is a man nade book, not divine as Torah, and NT us full of contradictions.
Wasn't atonement in the OT a temporary covering for a year at a time? Actually, wasn't Jesus' death on the cross propitiation?
There only way to atone for ones sins is to follow the law's and the commandments . Jesus said " unless ur righteousness surpass that of the scribes n Pharisee u shall by no means enter the kingdom of heaven " so no heaven for u if u dont follow the law's and the commandments as jesus did ?
you guys restored my faith back in Jesus,
Apsilon Uni it's good to hear that you're back!
That is some of the greatest and most satisfying news a person who follows, loves, and knows that Jesus is our savior, can hear!!!
AMEN!!!!!! That is so great!
Does the word atonement mean the same as ransom ? If so does the word ransom mean the same as redeem ?

Amen. I've started their Bible Reading Plan and I absolutely love it.

Me too. This Channel helped me
The God of the bible is a bloodthirsty psychopath. His anger is born out of ignorance. If he was all knowing he wouldn't be angry nor surprised. He would never regret making creation as he did in genesis. People who worship jesus worship blood sacrifice magick. A god who needs sacrifices for forgiveness is incapable of forgiving without sacrifices. It's just a petty and insecure God who needs payment and constant attention from his creation.
glory to God!
I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!
That was encouraging. I recently felt so depressed and guilty I thought God doesn't want anything to do with me anymore. I felt like it was impossible for me to get back to that relationship I had when I first accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. I still don't feel close at all, but I'm just somewhat getting back very slowly. I'm taking one step at a time, thank you for your testimony. God bless you brother/sisters
@@regclumsy1210 Try to remember that "All things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose" God knows you inside and out, he sees and knows. He's not unaware of what you're going through. You're not too far gone because of what you've done. People make mistakes and you're not the same person you were yesterday. God desires to help you grow and steer you in the right direction. God forgives, he is merciful and his love is unending. God bless you!
@@GhostMonkey772 Thanks you ever so much, God bless you all
3:15 after hearing the explanation of why Christ had to die saved me 2 years ago. Thank you Bible Project!!
Yes! I wish people would stop saying "Jesus died for your sins" and thinking they're sharing the gospel. I heard that phrase my entire life but did not understand it until I was 16 and read Romans for the first time.

@@stevejohnson8599 God is all good. It's His creation and since He is God, He can do what He wants. He can chose what He wants to do because He is over all. He declared that since you and I sin, we should die. But Jesus died in our place for us.... Did you watch the video? It's helpful.
@@stevejohnson8599 We love you. You nor I can create our own God or attempt to make God look or work according to how we think or how we want him to, that is idolatry. From your comment, you are viewing God from a skewed & distorted perspective. At least you are acknowledging that God exists even though you falsely label him as petty and insecure among other insults - John 3:16-21. I can gather from your comment that you are interested and searching for God because you know he is real and you want to know him for yourself. There's an empty void in you & me because we disobeyed God that God has already determined to be filled with him and he's allowing us to leave it empty or be filled with him. You have free will to choose him or reject him. God has come down personally to earth as a human named Jesus to search for you, reveal himself to you, instruct you, declare his love for you and prove his love for you. God has left written evidence of his existence(the bible), regarding what he has done and what he will do. Nature also confirms God's existence just through mere observation. Please read & study the whole bible and you will conclude that God is not as you have described him. But here's the sobering thought Mr. Johnson, even if God were as you falsely described him (We know he is not), you & I would still need Jesus according to your description. You can not find anything or anyone to permanently remove your sins other than Jesus. You can't remove your own sins by yourself. God has provided Jesus as the atoning sacrifice for all our sins. Do not reject Jesus, he's the only sacrifice God will accept to cleanse you & me of all sins according to Isaiah 53 & the book of Hebrews God loves us that much. God planned this before we even messed up. Act 2:22-42
@@maddiedecker957 so god sacrificed himself onto himself to satisfy himself for a rule he setup?
These videos have taught me more about the bible than church.
Ryan Personal Bible study and church should be main sources. If this is not the case, pray about why and be willing to make big changes.
The only benefit I see church is being among family and friends, and we all listen to a priest preach in long-winded speeches, and you're not allowed to ask questions; you can only listen and keep your mouth shut. I like to ask questions and think about them, that's why I only read the bible and stay away from church. If you feel comfortable in church, i won't judge you. But don't be afraid to ask personal questions and seek the answers.
Ryan Hey Ryan, just curious what kind of church do you go to? Church is supposed to be a place where brothers and sisters in Christ are able to fellowship and lovingly encourage, admonish, correct, rebuke, and pray with one another. It seems rather odd that you are unable to ask questions eagerly to learn more about God's word.
Jesus Is Risen I honestly don't remember. I was a little kid when I went to church. So I should really be blaming myself for not learning about God. I was just thinking about fundamentalists when I wrote that comment.
Ryan hey :) have you found a new church?

Knowing that "the very power that brought Jesus Christ back from the dead is the same power that can deal with the evil in our own lives and transform us to people who live lives of love and peace" gives me so much comfort 💖💖💖
Not a Christian my self (but have studied religion at college uptown masters level and now work as a religion and faith and teacher in a high school) and I gotta say your videos are fantastic. They are so engaging, easy to follow and informative. My students and I love them. You deliver high level and often complex theology, and make it easy to understand and interpret. I would be lost without these videos!
Thank u so much for taking thst first step! Seek the Lord and u shall find Him my friend. He longs to have a relationship with you, speak to Him just once, cast your burdens onto Him and let Him be your strength in whatever you’re going through. God bless
You are lost without Jesus, not these videos. Please seek him.
Man that was amazing I recently found Christ and recently got baptized and man this video was a breath taker on how it all works. Because I started reading the Bible for the first time but don’t understand a lot of things and these videos really help. Love it ❤️❤️
Were u found him i never knew he was lost
It's an interesting video, but it's not accurate. Sin is essenntially karmic debt. So when you get in debt you have to pay it off, or else at a future point, seed of sin would fruit, and you would incure a loss in the future either a financial loss, loss of life, loss of family members etc....
Sacrifice were not always in blood. God accepted monetary donations to the poor, wheat, and incense as a sin offering.
The reason animals were the typical sacrifice is because they were the most valuable resrouce for the common man during that era. Sacrificing your sheep meant you no longer had wool. Sacrificing a chicken meant no more eggs. Sacrificing a cow meant no more milk.
It was a huge loss / blow to the family. But the debt is paid up front is less, because seeds over time grow, like debt that has interest on it, and the debt grows. So it's better to pay sooner rather than later.
But God also accepted fasting and repentance which are forms of sacrifice as well. You are sacrificng the pleasure of eating, and showing mercy to the plant and animal kingdom by not eating for a time, and according to the bible mercy trumps the laws of justice (James 2:13 ). And with repentance we sacrifice our pride / ego to humble ourselves to beg God for forgiveness.
But it is a lie that the church teaches that God requires blood for atonment / forgiveness.
@@adim00lahActually, if you are attempting to understand through the intellect what can only be discerned through the Spirit, you will never know anything.
SIN as spoken about in any ancient manuscript has nothing to do with karmic debt, as that is a non-existent creation of man's ignorance. Man's belief in duality(good and evil)!
SIN is anything we choose that keeps us from living in truth.
S......Self
I.......Indulged
N.....Nuisances
What is truth?? Well, that's actually quite simple if one's Conscious Activity is that of Infinite Omnipresence!!
Yes, God IS Omnipresent, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Infinite Consciousness.
What we are witnessing here on Earth is nothing more than the Illusory Entertaining of Two Powers(good and evil) through Collective Consciousness.
Jesus, Buddha, and all the great Mystics have made it perfectly clear to the Consciousness that is able to acknowledge it, and that is Matter is Illusory, and God is the True Self!!
I Live and Have My Being in God Consciousness!!!
Thank you very much. I have been struggling with the question "Why did Jesus have to die for me?" for a while now. You've mapped it out perfectly and didn't use any filler. Thank you so much. You've helped me and calmed my mind.
So basically God cant forgive without a sacrifice? What kind of a God is that? Then someone else has to pay for my sins. What kind of an unjust God is that. God is all forgiving and all merciful and does not require any sacrifice to forgive. God has no limits and conditions when it comes to forgiveness. This is more logical and more befitting of a forgiving God. Not this hogwash that someone had to die
@@chunara he literally sacrificed himself to himself to save all of us, I think that's pretty forgiving.
@@chunara God has no limits and conditions… but God says there is strict rules he adheres to. God and sin cannot coexist. In order for you and God to be re-united YOUR sin must be accounted for. But you cannot account for your own sin because you are a fallen creature. Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on Earth, making his sacrifice for you perfect. Jesus Christ was able to atone for all the sins of humanity with his perfect sacrifice… bridging the gap between fallen man and a perfect, Holy, Blameless God.
Why does it have to be this way you might wonder? Because God says so, it’s really that simple. If you look at it, Gods way of dealing with humanities sin/evil is as loving as it gets… you get a clean slate, and the opportunity to be with God for all eternity and you did nothing to earn it because Jesus Christ earned it for you. If that’s not selfless and loving then nothing is.
Recently I learned that the Eastern Church, unlike the Western church, views sin as a fatal disease rather than as a legal crime that demands execution.
So this disease of ours and its resulting death is the great flaw in our corrupted nature, not legal indebtedness to God and threat of punishment. “Salvation” isn’t someone covering our sin debt to God so we can avoid punishment.
Salvation is healing us and saving us from our wretched condition. Christ is the great Physician who comes to heal human nature, which he does in several ways.
All of humanity is united to God in the incarnation of Christ, because he has united a divine and human nature within himself. The same way Adam’s connection to humanity infected the whole world with sin, Christ’s connection has infected the whole human nature with healing.
Passing through this life, he heals and dignifies every element of human nature, even down to suffering and oppression, by remaining sinless and in full submission to God through it all. Through dying he invades Hades (world of the dead), he rescues the dead, and then destroys death from the inside. He comes back up having fully conquered the grave, leading a host of captives in his wake.
This is how Christ saves us, how he restores the image of God in us, defeating both the source of sin (the corrupted human heart) and the result of sin (death).

@@chunara Saw your post Ismail. I understand your push back on this. I was in a similar place and then I asked myself “what kind of a God would allow evil to go unpunished. That would not be a very “just God. Evil (Sin) has to be dealt with. God could not allow sin into his presence. That concept actually made a lot of sense to me instead of a god just forgiving people who were not sorry for what they did that was wrong. (Repentance) praying for you on your journey. Check out some of the other videos that explain the Bible from the Bible Project…. They really line things out…
I just realized the 'evil' is the word 'live' backwards.
I was looking for a strong summary of the Old Testament sacrificial system. Thank you for providing an answer to that search!
This actually isnt exactly correct. The sacrifice didnt by itself atone for the sins of the person. A person could repent without a sacrifice at all, actually. Except when they did something so bad, like murdering, then they had to be put to death. The lamb was more like an offering to god to show you have repented rather than the atonement itself. And this is why god says that the lamb should be without blemeshes. The person has to devout time and effort and resources to taking care of the lamb. And the ritual took time and effort. The blood is sort of the cherry on top. One could in principal atone for their sins by simply repenting if they could not make the sacrifice (like when the temples were destroyed) so yea. The idea of total depravity is actually a later christian invention by paul and not in fact found in the old testament. It was paul's personal theology. We dont even know if jesus himself believed it.
@@mothernature1755 Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness. This theme is throughout the Bible, Oldand New Testament. For example, when the priestly garments used in sacrifices were first made, God told Moses that they were not pure and holy until sprinkled with sacrificial blood. I recommend you study this topic again.
@@PhazonOmega the blood was for consecration not purity. It didnt take away their sin. It made them sacres and holy, since they were priests. It was a ceremonial. The blood didnt have any magical powers. The killing of the bull was to honor the lord and the honoring is what alowed a person to attone for sin. If a person was in a situation where they could not make a sacrifice, they could still attone for sin.
@@PhazonOmega Exactly!!!
@@mothernature1755 You're right, the blood of the lamb wasn't in and of itself magical. The priests did need to go to extra lengths to be in God's presence. Ultimately, all the people needed / need atonement. It was God's response to that sacrifice and symbolism that gave it power. It temporarily covered the sin. It didn't in itself atone for that sin but the blood and the qualifications of the lamb pointed to the Lamb of God - Jesus, whose blood does fully atone for our sin. Repentance is our part, but will never make us right with God without applying the blood of Christ. In other words, we are incapable of making our own forgiveness, no matter how hard we try. It's the free gift of God lest anyone should boast (Eph 2:8,9). That's the good news and the bad news. The good news is it's free and God does the work, the bad is that insisting we can get to God through another means than God's design is like Aaron's sons making strange fires to the Lord. In effect, in modern vernacular, giving God the finger and saying "I can decide how this is going to work. Thanks for the Jesus thing but I'll do it my way."

I've been rigorously studying soteriology, baptism, and the Lord's supper for the last 6 years or so and every year or two I come back and watch this video again. Every time I do I'm blown away at how deep and dense everything in this video is. They're powerfully and simply conveying five or six years of my study in a matter of minutes.
I feel every part what you said. I have been walking in circles in my walk with God and He has keep busy my side and keep opening my heart.
I finally get it! God lead me to these videos and I finally get it.
I was so blown away by the majesty of Gods grace.
I can't wait for God to work in my life, my marriage and as I raise my kids.
I am thankful to learn more and that it comes freely. Praise God!
I am thankful that God provided me away to help my kiddos learn how to read God Word.
Praise be to Jesus!
Healing humanity!
Gods will be done on earth as it is in heaven!
This shows us that God loves us and take care of us. We matter more than animals
Praise God Hallelujah Amen 🙏♥️🙏

@@EthanDyTioco Sorry Ethan. I know its comforting to millions to think that way but thats a big fat "No Way" in my book. I am OK with those people as well . If "Gods Word" is all that , then isnt ALL! of Gods words all of that as well. Books in or out and subject to change. ¿ Uhh ! NOPE ¡! Does it work for you ? Great then.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Thanks to all those who help make this ministry continue 🙏 😊
This is my first day experiencing your videos and I must say; they are awesome, not only for myself but for every Christian or non-believe out there. I’m thrilled because I can share them with my 8 year Step Grand daughter. In the last weeks, I have seen how happy she is after returning home from Bible School which was always negative. She used to hate going to Bible class but now she loves it, and she’s going to love the classes even more now, after I introduce her to your videos. I’m 65 years old and I’ve been reading the Bible since I was a kid but that doesn’t mean I know everything there is to know about the Bible. There’s a lot I don’t know and there’s even more I would love to learn and know. Our God is an amazing God, and I have a hunger for his Word in me that’s constantly craving for more. The more I read, the more I thirst. That’s why Jesus said ‘ I am the bread of life’. Thank you very much for all your beautiful and inspiring videos. I’m going to keep sharing them, for I know that they will be a great inspiration to those seeking his forgiveness, love, mercy, and wisdom. May the Lord Jesus bless you and your families, and all those watching and sharing your videos.
Amen! Glory be to the Lord what an amazing testimony, God bless u too my friend and I pray you continue to get closer to Christ in Jesus name amen
When God convicts us of our sin, He also convicts us of His love. Thank You Lord God for Your faithfulness, even as we were unfaithful. You lead us to become what we were made to be in Christ.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. This video was what made me become a Christian and understand the gospel properly.
You guys are amazing- you don't know how this has changed my life! God bless you guys
The thorny vines of Evil wrap around the figure representing me, and as I look down at my evil-enwrapped hands I hear, "... this kind of puts us in a BIND ..." I see what you did there. May God continue blessing your team with creativity to help us see the messages in the Bible!
Good evening!!! I love the animation and art style of this video; I always feel that we and the world never deserved Jesus and I may be tearing up in a spiritual sense when I see Him on that cross. God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit bless each of us that at least watches this awesome video and everyone that surrounds each of us unconditionally and forever!!!!! ❤️❣️♥️💓💗🕊️👻😇☺️🙏🥊🙌💕
He's going to rid the world of evil without destroying humanity 😊
I’m so happy i found you guys on UA-cam! I love it all! Great teachings! Praise Jesus! ❤️✝️
Thank you for including the truth that the Sacraments are not merely a remembering of what Jesus has done, but a way in which we actually partake in the power of Jesus' work of atonement!
My 7 year old just watched this with me and she understood almost everything. Your graphics are extremely helpful with context clues. I've watched videos previously but never through the eyes of my daughter. Amazing stuff 👏 Thank you!!! 😊
This makes me sad to hear. Think about all the things your kid is learning at this young, vulnerable and formative age. Think about how this will affect how they view the world and themselves. Think about what this will mean for your child’s development and how it will impact them as an adult. I mean REALLY think about it. I wish my parents had.

@@kaidakayama8179 as a true Christian we must not be religious but form a relationship with Jesus Christ. That’s why it’s important to pray/fast. You know religion is more like “I have too” than “I NEED to” if that makes sense
It’s false.
Thank you for offering your gift and talent to the world!! It’s truly a blessing and helps ppl to better understand the word of God and God himself.
Had to comment a big thank you for this. I have been using the Bible Project clips as intro to our home family Bible Studies and its interesting watching how engaging they are to my 20 year old sons. This one is perfect as we will study Hebrews 9 and 10 this week. This clip rolls it all up in less than 10 minutes. Thank you for allowing God to use you.
Thank you so much for all the great content you guys put out for free.. I'm a Sunday School teacher and I use your videos in many of my classes.. They have been a huge blessing ..I pray that God would continue to bless you and use you guys.!!
I am a very skeptic person, but God humbled my heart to study the Bible and your videos and explanations has helped me.
How can one explain the Gospel in such a slightly different way but yet to simple so clear? This is the Word of God!💯
I love y'all. thank you. I am a Christian, and I have been in the church my whole life (thought I think my heart was not truly changed until college)... this video helped me better understand the atoning, purifiying sacrifice of Jesus. It helped me better understand the gospel as well as the old testament sacrifices... would not have found this without reading Exodus 24.
How beautiful! It makes me cry. It's rare to see people explain evil this way. Halelu-YAH!
This has been the most powerful video I think I've seen yet. The drawings and way you put together this whole video revealed the amazing gift of God's grace. Continue to keep doing great and glorifying God through these videos! God Bless
Revising this in Easter week really hit different and meaningful to me 💖
I absolutely love your videos and devotionals on the Bible app! It REALLY HELPS break the Bible down into stories and categories that make sense and connect passages and books in ways i never would have figured out on my own. May God continue to bless this ministry and all who participate in it!!
1:06 I literally lost it at this point. Beautifully stated.
Based on what you claimed your philosophy of evangelism is with these resources, I would have to strongly recommend you change "Jesus believed he was fulfilling," to "Jesus claimed (or asserted) he was fulfilling." The word "belief" has a lot of luggage attached to it in our culture. Jesus made an assertion about Himself and what He was doing. He never said He "believed" it, but that He knew it. So if you are trying to maintain a neutral historical perspective for the sake of the curious non-believers, I can respect that, but it would be far more appropriate to affirm that Jesus asserted these things about Himself as being true with no doubt in His mind whatsoever.
Christian Dove 👍
was just thinking this very thing and you said it well
CL hmm
The point is, Jesus did claim he was, but in the perspective of those who do not know or believe, Jesus believed he was by his claimings.
I don't see nothing wrong with the way they Said it, i even think is the best way, no forcing something.
I believe in Jesus and in his ressurection by the way.
What Jesus believed completely trumps what the world believes. Jesus believed solely in the Father and did whatever the Father said. Jesus believed wholeheartedly in the fulfillment. He prophesied numerous times to His disciples where He was going and what He was going to do for Gods children. We as human beings can only hope and wish that we believe as Jesus believed, not as the world believes. We have no idea how He believed in His Fathers work. We will only find out when we get to heaven.
THANKYOU - this is clear articulate it’s wonderful --
I’ve been needing someone to help me study the Bible
I will contribute
This has been such a gift to me this is so needed for many of us don’t have a church yet and I look to you to help me learn !!
THANK U CHRIST JESUS❗
In such short time , the message is extremely powerful. Greatly blessed. Keep up the good work. The God of glory abundantly bless you TBP.
It was very interesting to learn about the effect that evil has on everything in this world. I also learned about how animal blood represents life, and the sprinkling of it symbolizes how God is cleansing the evil in communities. Jesus being described as the "perfect sacrifice" shows how he died to pay the debt that we owe to God because we contributed to spreading evil and sin.
Thank You Lord God for sending my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to this world for our sake. Thank You a million times for loving us unconditionslly Lord.🙏🙏🙏
I appreciate this channel so much and how it’s truly not white washed. Not that that even matters really but man is it refreshing
Exactly! Its a pet peeve of mine when other white people (like myself) feel the need to portray Israel as white. They aren't and it always makes it seem like it was somehow a bad thing. Like you said, it doesn't matter but it is really nice to see
You don't have to apologize by saying not that it matters much. That is an important thing and you are right to feel that way sister. But like you said Praise be to God that they don't white wash it👍
I'm glad it met the standard. :-) I'm in a majority white church with sadly little diversity, and we whitewash without realizing it. From time with a melinated church friend with children my kids age, hearing the questions his children bring up is surprising and heartbreaking. So I've started also appreciating more accurate portrayals. The kids notice inaccuracies and start deducing bad things from it.
@@atrowell THAT is the sad, and Bad part, of most churches today. What it is doing to our children, and grandchildren.
I greatly appreciate it as well. I am mostly white and I was always taught growing up that Jesus and the Israelites WERE NOT WHITE. So I always felt uncomfortable with those very European portrayals of Jesus and the Jews.
4 years later and I think this still might be my favorite video from Bible Project
These videos deserve a lot of sharing! PLEASE guys share them as much as you can if you can't donate. Because at least this way you can help promote "The Bible Project" and others might be able to donate.
thanks peace be with u!!!
I thank you guys for bringing the Word of God to life!!
Thank you and thank God for the Bible Project🙏🏾
I really enjoy watching these videos and they make me wanna read my bible more. It gets me exited and it opens Doors for me. Thanks for all the hard work!:)
I absolutely LOVE your videos!! Thank you SO much for making them! They teach me more in under ten minutes than I've ever learned in an hour long church service. They also help me understand and connect concepts that never made much sense to me before. I can't wait to see more videos!!
This video is beautiful. I almost cried . ❤️❤️ . Thank God for Jesus Christ !
I did my schooling in Christian School but there I wasn't interested the way they teach. You tell things so simplistic and easy to understand I love it I watch it often it's so lovely❤🌸
You guys are awesome. Thank you so much! When I have the funds I will definitely donate. This is such a valuable service to everyone. So blessed by you guys.
"Understandable" for visual learners like me. i like this.
I only now stumbled upon this and I am so glad I did . This is beautiful!
I was looking for ways to explain biblical sacrifice to my young children and just stumbled upon your videos. I am so thankful for your mission. After watching this, I will now be spending my free time gleaning from your videos as I prepare my lessons for my kids.... what a tremendously helpful resource.
Just amazing! I am using your videos in my weekly Bible study to teach the Bible in 365 days!! Thank you and God bless you!
Don't just see or hear Him, you drink and eat Him.
To believe, to experience, to practice, to live being in Him.
Gin,
INCREDIBLE!!! GOD bless you soooo much for this!

most complex thing in the Bible and make the clear in 5 to 7 minutes. I want to introduce these to my Sunday school class thank you so much for this. I will be supporting you. Thanks for these and please make more!
Thank you for your videos. They are beautifully done. but most of all, accurate. I'm reading the bible along with them and it's very interesting. I love God's word. God bless you!♡♡♡
Y'all are amazing blessings! Thank YOU SO MUCH
Praying for more blessings for you who all who made this video. Keep up the good works. You made God so happy for you guys! More power to us all ! 😊🙏
praise the Lord and God bless you
Great work guys. I'm not in my bible like I should be but I love that I can spend a few minutes, watch, and learn. Thank for your gift.
Thank you so much. I've always seen the question of "why can't God just erase evil from the world" and my answer was always that we didn't see and understand things the way He did so we can only wait for His timing. Though i know that this is correct, i also did feel a bit confused about that. So thank the Lord for allowing me to find this video to explain this to me much more simply.
For His ways are higher than ours, and His thoughts are higher than ours. And as High as the heavens are above the earth, so great is the Father's love
Thank you so much for this video BibleProject team! God loves you all! You are all so amazing! 😊 Does anyone want me to pray for them or their family? I would love to do that!❤️
So grateful for all of your videos! Such a great blessing!! Definitely worth supporting and sharing!
Answers the question of why a loving God would permit evil.
Because He gave us free will and Adam and Eve denied God and allowed Satan to deceive them from eating from the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil so we all fell into sin that is why we need Jesus and God knows that though their is much evil now that in the future the good that comes will be amazing and more then you could even imagine
Reveion I don’t understand why God would require a blood sacrifice in order to forgive sin, why can’t he just forgive when we’ve repented?
Reveion Also, I don’t understand why we’re all being punished for Adam and Eve sinning?
@@km0262 Hi! I recommend you to check out a channel called Campaign for Christ International. You will find videos on some questions that many ask themselves. If you leave a comment on their channel, they can possibly make a video response to your question.
Km02 the blood sacrifice is Jesus Christ He died for our sins he made the atonement for our sins because only He is good only He is perfect we all fall short so if you accept Christ you are saved but the only way to have true salvation is through repentance
Hey guys. I'm an ex-Muslim. I was wondering if it would be okay for me to either sub or dub your videos in another language and republish them?
No need to. You can go to the settings button, and you will see that you can add your own subtitles.
There's an article on that on their website :) thebibleproject.com/translators/
Jordan Taylor How can we do that? I can't find the settings button:(
+The Unknown Yes.
On the bottom right hand corner, you'll see a mechanical gear icon. Click that, then click subtitles, then click "add subtitles/cc".
Praise the Lord! I love it!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Heavenly Father God... forgive my family and I of our sins ..in Jesus mighty name amen
What a wonderful teaching tool. Clear and accurate to scripture. Amen!
Amazing! Love the way you explained why God doesn't just make the world good which so many people say without understanding what they are actually saying. Donating now! Can't wait to see more of your work.
@Julian Clarke Black people are not the “true Jews,” that claim is easily debunked by Numbers 12 when Miriam is racist to Moses’ black wife and God punishes her with ultra-white leprosy. Miriam, a Jewish woman, couldn’t have been racist to a black woman unless Miriam herself was NOT black.
The reason that God even had a chosen people was so that he could bring his blessing to all the nations through them. That blessing, the Christ, has come.
*“And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.” Isaiah 49:6*
*“Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, who hath made BOTH ONE, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain ONE NEW MAN, so making peace; And that he might reconcile BOTH unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. For through him we BOTH have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Now therefore ye are NO MORE strangers and foreigners, but FELLOWCITIZENS with the saints, and of the household of God;” Ephesians **2:11**-19*
