Tears in my eyes to see so many people recite together the Apostle's creed! People before many centuries have recited this creed even though they knew that it would cost them their life!
Living in liberal California, it is difficult to see a good balance of what we should keep and what needs to change. I am glad Ravi Zacharias can take on this difficult task in a time of divisive moral thought.
"An object produces sound when it vibrates in matter. When something vibrates in the atmosphere, it moves the air particles around it." wouldn't you think that the object creating the waves of pressure, will still produce the same result with or without a bearer of the sound?
The 'Catholic Church' as mentioned in the Apostle Creed is a reference to the Universal Church which all born-again believers belong to and NOT to the Roman Catholic Church. Hope this clears things up for you.
The "tree in the forest" thing is trivialized here. Part of the usefulness of the question is to define what is objective. What we refer to as "noise" is simply vibration of air as interpreted by the ear. If the tree falls and there are no ears around, what happens? Is it still "noise"? Does something exist apart from our perception of it?
Those are amazing ideas...which would fit right in a Dan Brown sensationalist fiction novel. Historically? Not so much. If there are any peer-reviewed scholarly sources that not only provides accurate evidence for your proposition, but also generally accepted by a sizeable amount of historians, Christian or not, or has not been refuted by further studies and evidence, then I'm sure not only me, but other Christians like Prof Zacharias may even fight for your case.
The event still happens, and if you define the event exclusively as the vibration of air particles around it, then yes- it's the same result. But if by "result" you mean what we define as "sound", then no.
Ravi presents a persuasive syllogism: "Objective moral values only exist if God exists. Objective moral values do exist, therefore God exists." And he rhetorically proposes the question "How do they knock that down?" giving only half the answer: "By making Jesus just like themselves." I say only half the answer because the agnostic liberal socialists also make themselves just like Jesus in their own eyes. For example, Sociology's purported 'Master Thinkers' which are neo-gnostic in nature. Idols
The Pastor and assembly omitted from the Apostle's Creed "He descended into hell/to the dead". While not one of the most well known parts of Scripture, it is indeed Scripture. Christ preached His victory over sin, death, and the devil as stated in 1 Peter 3:18ff. It is troubling when those gathered in the Name of Christ deliberately omit God's Word and change the ecumenical Creeds of the Church for almost 2000 years. Christian blood has been shed defending such.
Inspite of multimillion disease causing agents, 2 million illnesses, 2.5 million toxins, 4 m still births and unreliable weather pattern, earthquacks,barren land and deserts, are we thankful to God for preserving our life from Adam till today. Millions of disabled people are thankful to God for caring for them every day. A judgement day is coming then you will know that why God passed us through hardships and trials for our and His glory if we get in heaven. Do not be a doubter but a believer.
You make it sound like we (mankind) havn't had a hand in the world's atrocities. I'm sorry you feel this way, but i hope you can see that we are more to blame than God if you really sit down and think rationally about it. Like for example if i run a stop light and hurt myself or others, surely i was driving and chose to not pay attention. Let alone men designed the systems and roadways we drive on. I don't mean to poke at you i just hope you try to look at it from a different angle.
So, after you could not come up with any proper sources for any of your earlier points and arguments, you’ve switched to a fallacious ad hominem argument based on a terrible misunderstanding of Christianity? You can only be a troll, and not a sincere person seeking intelligent debate. Grade: 8/10, was successful, will not come back for more.
If life is really worth nothing, what does it all mean? If there is no meaning, why bother ask the question? If you posit a meaning then you imply life has intrinsic worth ..now you have a problem
Lee univ. Should invite bishop philips who wiil teach real true church history zion assembly church of God is last church im surprised lee did creed ,its not biblical did paul or any apostles ever did creed
Do objective moral values exist? How could you ever prove this? If you did why would it follow that God exists? Couldn't it just as easily follow that the Hindu gods exist or Zeus? Why would any of this mean that the Judao-Christian god exists? Ravi constantly brings up the holocaust, but never mentions that it was Martin Luther's idea. You can be sure that Eichmann knew this. His last words were "I die believing in God."
Does he have any conclusive evidence that supports the existence of God? No? Then why should we atheists be interested in what he says? Or what any of you Christians have to say on the subject of your religion?
When will Ravi be held responsible for his academic misrepresentation and online affair with Lori Anne Thompson? Does celebrity status, legal resources and influential connections matter more than TRUTH? The academic issues are as follows: 1. Ravi claiming to be a "visiting scholar at Cambridge University" when he was on sabbatical for 3 months at Ridley Hall (a Church of England training center) in the city of Cambridge. Cambridge University has explicitly denied in an official letter that they ever invited him as a visiting scholar. What he really did was to sit in on one or two courses at the university due to close proximity. 2. Ravi saying that he is lecturer at Oxford University when the university has also denied in an official letter that he was never a lecturer or a professor there at any time. 3. Ravi claiming on his website that he has been conferred with "8 doctoral degrees" without disclosing that they were honorary. A number of his books (in the backcover) state that he was "educated at Cambridge University." As mentioned earlier, he never studied nor was he ever a visiting scholar at Cambridge University. 4. Ravi repeatedly saying (you can check various youtube videos) that he studied "quantum physics" under John Polkinghorne at Cambridge University in 1990 when Dr. Polkinghorne stopped teaching Physics in 1979. Additionally, Ravi was never a student or visiting scholar at Cambridge University to begin with. 5. Ravi declaring that he lectures at universities like Harvard and Yale when all these events were organized by Christian groups and local churches which would rent an auditorium on the university campus to hold the meetings. For instance, one of the organizers for the Harvard event was the Chinese Holy Ghost Fellowship. 6. Ravi saying that he was the Chair of a Department that did not exist at the institution where he taught in the 80's. 7. Ravi stating that he won a prestigious international "All Asian Preaching Award" when what he actually participated in was a local preaching contest organized by Youth For Christ (YFC) in India. Steve Baughman spoke to all three judges who were at the competition and they have confirmed that Ravi's claims are false. 8. Ravi states that his first book was based on lectures delivered at the Bell Labs in New Jersey but they have absolutely no record of him. 9. Why did Ravi and RZIM completely change the content on their website after all the misrepresentations became public? Obviously, because they were marketing lies! Secondly, the online affair issue boils down to the following: 1. Why did Ravi threaten suicide in his email to Lori Anne Thompson? 2. Why does he accuse Lori of betraying him in the email? 3. Why does Ravi ask Lori to meet with him before disclosing his name to her husband? 4. Why does Ravi ask Lori if she was going to reveal his name to her husband and plead with her to meet him in person before doing anything? 5. Why did he not report to the RZIM board when he started receiving the nude picture from Lori? Why did he continue to engage Lori for quite sometime (as he himself admits) till the demand for 5 million? 6. Why has he nor RZIM denied anything from the emails? Much of the evidence, including letters from institutions, emails etc. can be found on @t
Jesus as a god is a myth. There were at least 40 men who claimed the name Yehua or Joshua. It certainly was not Jesus which means son of Zeus. Hey, go drink some blood for the zombie Jezeus. Wait, that pagan practice was being done hundreds of years before Jezeus. Justin Martyr even states so.
"After initially denying accounts of his misconduct, Ravi Zacharias International Ministries announced that an investigation had found credible evidence of sexual misconduct spanning many years and multiple continents."
it is an amazing thing some people simply love to embrace a lie and spread to let it appear real, victim of here say , try and learn something do not embrace another man shit , where is your judgement ?you are allowing people to blur your vision , be your own judge , do not let people toss you around like a puppet ,
Of course you will not. Go now and kneel before science as does Ravi just as you hang your hopes on the fallacious ad hominem arguments of his along with other arguments already disproven to be true. You want no intelligent debate. You want someone, you beg for someone to please, please prove Jezeus existed and was a demigod.
Hello Ravi:) Tonight I came across your videos and watched several of them. my severe depression has lifted. I feel a strong renewed confidence, my fear is eradicated. I am Christian Armenian from new york originally. I have been living in Santa Cruz Ca for 17 years. Do you ever give talks in my area? I have the utmost respect for You and Derek Prince. All other preachers/pastors/ministers in the media pale in comparison to you. I suffer from debilitating fibromyalgia for 20 yrs.
May I ask you to pray for me and the one medical condition I have, fibromyalgia, a diffuse soft tissue pain condition that is chronic in nature. My name is Christine Margosian. I know you are in a strong bond with The Lord. Without neurontin and tramadol, i would not be able to leave my bed. Perhaps there can be healing for me from this neuromuscular disability. I have subscribed to your channel. I feel born again. you are the greatest blessing to me. xoxo
This man's teaching always lifts my heart, praise Jesus

Tears in my eyes to see so many people recite together the Apostle's creed! People before many centuries have recited this creed even though they knew that it would cost them their life!

the Lord never fail to speak to his people in time of distress and pain ,
Living in liberal California, it is difficult to see a good balance of what we should keep and what needs to change. I am glad Ravi Zacharias can take on this difficult task in a time of divisive moral thought.
Beautiful man of God, now with Jesus..So very inteligent. A true gift to us all.

God bless zion assembly church of God for keeping true biblical doctrine
The 4 Questions for
Preparation of giving a Presentation:
Identification?
translation?
Persuasion?
Justification?
Ravi Zacharias at 8:20
Why is there no question and answer? Who's brilliant idea was to delete that from the video?
Aleluia to Good...
Amen
yeah ravi speaks the truth
"An object produces sound when it vibrates in matter. When something vibrates in the atmosphere, it moves the air particles around it." wouldn't you think that the object creating the waves of pressure, will still produce the same result with or without a bearer of the sound?
I would love to knw what the matra he read

What has happened to lee univ. Apostles creed

@hildahbaby amen, instead of throwing mud, he explains.

then why listen, yet here you are!

What annoys me most about the apostles creed is the name. The apostles didn't have that as a creed...

Ravi Sakaria , yes, absolutly, but the Catholic church, oh no, God forbid. Daniel 7:25, and all the book of Revelation. Flee my friends from her.
