This is an important topic. It also reminds me of what Jesus Christ said, "Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven..." God bless your ministry, sir!
Mike Winger has a great/ funny reply to the atheist saying they believe in one less God then they do... he says that's like saying, Im single (just like you), I just have one more wife than you do.
Good evening, I am currently enrolled at LU, and I am taking APOL220. Your videos are incredible for providing a proper example as how to ask the tough questions and provide a proper, realistic, evidential response that leaves the listener thinking, especially as an Apologist.
When John the Bapt. asked Jesus if He were the One, Jesus pointed to EVIDENCE, and told John's disciples to report WHAT THEY WERE SEEING. It's all about the evidence.
I wish you did Q&As. My mother is very lost. She likes to call herself open-minded, but really she just picks and chooses what she likes. She calls herself a member of the Baha'i Faith, but Bahai's don't believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus while she does. She rejects Islam, even though Baha'is promote an idea of religious pluralism including Islam. She also believes in New Age things, including astrology, chakras, yoga, third eye, etc. Whenever I condemn these things as demonic, sinful or false, she argues, shouts and calls me closed-minded. She rejects logic and evidence, including people who lived through those things and gave them up for Jesus. She likes Buddha statues. She doesn't like church. She won't condemn any false prophet except Muhammad and Joseph Smith. In fact, she'll listen to almost anyone claiming to be a prophet of God in the current age. She watches Christians she likes on UA-cam, but whenever they say the basics of Christianity, like the fact we've sinned, we deserve Hell, and Jesus died for our sins, it goes through her head and doesn't impact her heart. That's everything I can think of about her, other than the fact she has an unhealthy obsession with ETs and flying saucers, and videos she's watching about them are promoting New Age ideas. I don't know what to do other than pray. She has no other Christians in her life.
Sounds familiar. All you can do is pray for her, and talk to her as much as she is willing without forcing the subject. Leave it in God's hands; we cannot change anyone's mind. God bless you and I pray your mother comes Christ in time.
Even those who say "coexist" and "all religious viewpoints are true" will not accept the viewpoint that only one religious viewpoint is true. Where is the tolerance, love, and 100% acceptance?
I would respond to the "one less god" insult by saying "Actually, I do believe in all those gods. They were a group of fallen angels called Watchers, and their half-human offspring called the Nephilim."
Yeah... the 'one less god' complaint is really just a logical fallacy. It's the generalization fallacy- the atheist is saying that because most gods can be/have been rejected, then all gods must be. But this is ridiculous. Let's say you have a pair of shoes on. I come up to you and inform you that you are, in fact, barefoot. Why? Because you've just rejected one fewer pair of shoes that I have, and I am barefoot. In a way, the skeptic's claim is true. Christians reject one less God than the atheists do. But so what? What you do or don't reject has no bearing on Truth. I can reject that the Earth is round; that does not mean that the Earth is now suddenly flat. You can reject God, but that does not mean that God is not real.
You are judged by what you know many who have not heard of JESUS shall be in heaven. GOD is a fair GOD. GOD loves everyone he has breathed life into . Is it pot luck that I know JESUS and bad luck that I was born on an island in the pacific 500 years ago or born in the desert 4000 years ago . Isn't Elijah. Moses and Enoch already in heaven yet they did not know JESUS as we know him .
Fair is that every person is a sinner and deserves eternal punishment in hell. Grace is what God in His loving kindness has given to those whom He predestined to be His through Jesus. He brings us to saving faith in Christ through the Holy Spirit. Thanks be to God that He doesn’t give everyone what they fairly deserve.

MANY. MANY SHALL SAY TO ME LORD LORD....MANY

Great teaching, thank you very much for sharing. May God Bless you, your loved ones, and everyone who hears this message. Maranatha!
Well spoken.

It makes me mad about the Buddha statue because I believe that he was a real person. But apparently it's considered idolatry.
New to this channel, absolutely love it🙏🏼
I love these videos
Thank you wise man of God for another excellent video🫶🏾
We are NOT all "climbing Mount Fuji from different sides."
The only way all religions can be equally true is if all religions are false.
ATHEIST: I believe in one less god than you do.
CHRISTIAN: And you will get one less Eternal Life than I do.
Actually the atheist gets eternal life, everyone does. The question is where they spend it. The atheist will spend theirs in hell.
Great.
Case closed! :]
Algorithm boost.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by me" John 14:6.
Even those who say "coexist" and "all religious viewpoints are true" will not accept the viewpoint that only one religious viewpoint is true.
Where is the tolerance, love, and 100% acceptance?
I would respond to the "one less god" insult by saying "Actually, I do believe in all those gods. They were a group of fallen angels called Watchers, and their half-human offspring called the Nephilim."
I was aware of all that, except "Watchers". Where did you get that term from?
Back everything up with the Bible or it is speculation.

where is this evidence that you speak of
All religions were built from God, like gossip. God Jesus and the Holy Spirit is the true God.
What are you trying to say? All religions don’t come from God. There is what God has revealed to us in the Bible and everything else is from Satan .
You are judged by what you know many who have not heard of JESUS shall be in heaven. GOD is a fair GOD. GOD loves everyone he has breathed life into . Is it pot luck that I know JESUS and bad luck that I was born on an island in the pacific 500 years ago or born in the desert 4000 years ago . Isn't Elijah.
