From a linguistic perspective, Jesus came at a time when many languages in the "Old World", even those across different language families, still had similar flexible syntaxes, unlike now. This made translating the Gospel message into the other languages a much easier task, as the translations would be literal for the most part without confusing the audience or losing a significant amount of meaning, and I believe this helped the Gospel message to spread more quickly throughout the Gentile nations.
Great point. I have also thought, and have heard and read others thinking the same, that written Koine Greek as well as crucifixion share in the perfect timing. Crucifixion being the choice public execution style at that time, brutal and humiliating compared to other forms of torture/execution through history. Koine Greek being complex and exacting in its written form, a perfect choice to carry into the future and be translated into many languages. Gods timing is always perfect. I’m sure the complexity behind it and the many more reasons why than we’ve (and the video) mentioned would blow our minds.
@@Mandarintoenail1 oh wow yes!! I’ve always thought about this so much, and reading the old testament I came across the ritual for the sacrifice in the altar of the lambs and that just chatteredddd me !!! they where nailed to the altar so the body would scurry around while all the blood was shed. wow GOD IS AMAZING THANK YOU JESUS!!!! oh wow please guys check out the video on One For Israel channel called “what Mary didn’t know” MIND BLOWING!!!!
There are so many things that I, born and raised in a Christian home, have never thought to ask or think about. Fascinating. God puts faith in our hearts that needs no explanation, but the explanation can still be a blessing if we receive it less as something we have to have in order to believe and more as something that enriches our understanding.
Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths”
@@JamesRichardWiley For YOUR taste? You judge God? The created trying to school the creator? You fool. Let's see how that works for you on judgment day.
@@JamesRichardWiley that’s a very uneducated response. First God judged the world , as it’s his and everything is from him , not us. Second this life is not our true destination, we were not created to die, we were always meant to be immortal, the next life is where we will spend eternity. Third all children go straight to paradise and will be forever with the lord. Fourth God does not approve of slavery, if you read the scriptures it clearly says anyone who steals a person and sells him will be put to death, this is what modern day slavery is classed as. Slavery in the ancient world was about security and war , it takes a little reading and study to understand this fully. Fifth blood sacrifice? What animal or human? If you are referring to animals, this is all leading up to the ultimate and very last sacrifice, which was Jesus. You need to do some study to understand this, Jesus gave his life freely for us, he did not have to do this at all , God does not need us at all, but God loves us and knows how weak and broken we are and that we need a saviour, which is Jesus. Greater love has no one than this, to lay down ones life for his friends. John 15,13 Just try to understand this and it’s a start. Don’t deny yourself the knowledge that God gives us , as you are missing out on a eternity of growing in the true knowledge of God.
@martinbrown3161 what exactly does it mean that each of the previous sacrifices was leading up to Jesus? (Those are all examples of blood sacrifice, btw)

“Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed, saying, “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.” The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them. He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying, “ I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.” I will proclaim the Lord’s decree: He said to me, “You are my son; today I have become your father. Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession. You will rule them with an iron scepter; you will dash them to pieces like pottery.” Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear and celebrate his rule with trembling. Kiss his son, or he will be angry and your way will lead to your destruction, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.” Psalm 2

Your answer will work for The Devout believer, however it is completely useless for the unbeliever. Sometimes we have to give answers that are not just another form of preaching to the choir.
One of the common available resources to ancient theology not mentioned in this brief were the 48 constellations in the stars. The gospel from the virgin birth to the Southern Cross is written in the stars. The heavens declare the glory of Elohim.

Here in my country, in Belgium, christianity is in very strong decline. In a few years we won't even have a priest anymore in my parish. Really sad. Will Jesus eventually be forgotten?? What would be the consequence of that?
You must spread your religion, it's our duty. Don't force it but preach it to those who don't know it or misunderstand it through reasoning and common sense
Perhaps the Catholic Church is fading because they maintain that it takes the intercession of a priest to reach God. It doesn't. Ask and you shall receive.

*JESUS is COMING SOON!* Around 2 years ago I was out riding my bike along a spot that I'm not too familiar with. I felt that "not home" feeling and didn't like it; I started to tell myself *"Well, Jesus is..."* and before I could finish it, my head turns to the right and sees a big sign in the grass: *"COMING SOON!"* - Quickly I burst into laughter at the timing of this. It was *seamless.* So I went home and called my mother on the phone and told her about it. She quickly said to me: *"That's confirmation!"* - As *soon as she said that,* the memory was brought to my conscious mind that I prayed, *just two days before,* asking the Lord if He really told my mother: *"Soon, child, soon."* bass / baritone range, and cannot scream even close to that pitch in the dream. I learned later in the day that, just 2 days before my dream, *NY* lit up the *One World Trade* center building *PINK,* _IN CELEBRATION OF_ being able to murder babies in the womb at 9+ months! I was shocked (and disgusted) at how this was the confirmation to my dream. Will we be here to see this? I assumed so, or else I see no other reason why the Lord would show me this dream. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I've been born again since 1996 (at age 17) and my mother has been born again since the early-mid 1970s (her early-mid 20s). We've both had multiple experiences and words from the Lord over the years (about current situations at those times) but *never about anything concerning end times.* Only in the last couple of years did He wake us up to this. So let's keep watch. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Link to my forum where I've posted a few other experiences with Jesus + some of my viewpoints on biblical subjects:* ua-cam.com/channels/OqOr-lYMcAF-N39vx8WLng.htmldiscussion?view_as=subscriber
I think there is similarity story of Jona and Jesus. Jona was swollen by big fish on Friday and stay in the belly of fish. On Sunday Jona was spit him out to the shore and he still alive. Jesus was under arrest because Judas coordinated with emperor and crucified him. Al might Gid ascended Jesus directly to Heaven. Someone else die on the cross. He said Ely Ely Sabatani Jesus still alive in heaven. On Sunday the tomb was empty.
Thanks for such a wonderful show Alisa. Just got a copy of your book. Although I am not a woman, (thank the Lord I know who I am these days, right. lol) I am looking forward to you being with us for the conference next week at RBC which is generating a lot of excitement. It reminds me of when I invited your dad to come to Chandler in 1984. God bless you and the work you continue to do! 🧡
One important reason Jesus came when he did: the LXX. Accounts were written about him in a very expressive, flexible and widely used language. Additionally, the OT scriptures that spoke of him were also translated from a globally obscure language (Hebrew) into a globally used language (Greek). Greek was used in various amounts from Spain to India.
The advanced attribute that Jesus taught upon and demonstrated with his life that wasn't accentuated in former messiahs was forgiveness as a replacement for sacrifice as the way to salvation. The Crucifixion was an extreme case in which Jesus could have blamed others for his murder and even up to this day many debate whether it was the Romans or Pharisees that killed Jesus. Jesus forgave everyone setting the Way for us to do the same, that he made the death of his body happen. We get what we ask for. So we can forgive everyone for anything we think others did to us. So it wasn't about sacrifice but forgiveness. Matt 12.7 "But if you had known what this means I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the innocent."
Wrong conclusion. Jesus would have us have mercy , not sacrifice" is saying Jesus will be the mercy sacrifice for our sins. Yes, we should be full of mercy and sacrifice our lives living not in selfishness but in and through His Holy Spirit. "Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin" Hebrews 9:22
@@fuzfire If sacrifice is to give up listening to the world and listen to the Holy Spirit, I agree with that sacrifice, but pain has nothing to do with that. Doing so makes us blessed, it doesn't bring suffering. See the Beatitudes for the reference. Sickness is a sacrifice that people accept because they think it brings them closer to God, but I don't.
Logically speaking, "sooner" is a meaningless concept when dealing with a being who exists outside of time. The answer here is the same one God gave to Job when his human limitations caused him to ask similar questions.
All of this helps understand why Jesus, the prophet and Messiah, came at this time. But as a deity, that's not remotely convincing. I still believe that God, the Father, is the One and Only God.
In academia two things can be similiar but not the samething. Can you share why you say they are very similiar and not just similiar, or very very similiar? What accepted statistical analysis do you currently use?
Alisa Childers speaks out on the deception of New Age spirituality and so-called Progressive Christianity. Her theology is very reformed and ready to address the big issues of the day. She is in the Biblical tradition of Gresham Machen, Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Francis Schaeffer and John MacArthur.
I just chucked out my jeans for developing holes on the knees. If there are two things I can not stand: getting my toes caught in the hole as I attempt to put on my pants, and, cold air invading a design that's supposed to provide an envelope of warmth.

C. S. Lewis in Mere Christianity speculates that pagan deities having factors in common with Christ (such as a virgin birth) may be "good dreams" given by God in anticipation of the coming of the true Messiah, the God-man, Jesus Christ.
@@pauthang1767 I'm not talking about refusing to worship him with my comment. I'm referring to people being able to be convinced he's real in the first place.
@@pauthang1767 yeah totally agree. For example if the bible is 100% correct I don't trust, respect, or love that God at all. Even if it's not, I need a good explanation of why God needs or wants worship from Him. Plus a lot of other questions he needs to answer.
@@alexnunn1932 Hm... I see. Although I came to a different conclusion personally regarding the God of the Bible, I hope you find the answer you need to trust the God of the Bible.
Jesus came when Israel (the nation of priests to the nations) had sunk to their lowest low, and when the gentiles reached their highest high (the Roman Empire). There was no where for humanity to go unless the second Adam came to recreate humanity.
Would like to ask a question. How are you going to convince a young, Christian with a medical degree that Jesus was born of a virgin and that he woke up from the dead after 3 days, pushed the stone aside and walked out of the tomb? I used to believe that these stories were historical, biological facts back during the days when I was a young girl. I then had a chance of going to the UK for studies and that's when I had the privilege of reading theological books from British libraries and meeting up with educated, thinking Christians . That's when I had to change my mind and become a progressive Christian. The bible stories are allegorical and should not be read as if they were yesterdays TV news.
Let me try to answer that. If we were able to go back in time to say, the Medieval Age, bringing along some modern gadgets. It would appear incredible to people back than. God who claimed who He is. He who existed outside our space and time, the One who created this world, did present Himself to us as Jesus, with all the miracles ascribed to him, fulfilling all prophesies written about him in the Old Testament. The early disciples would be deluded and the Bible allegorical if it wasn't true. The entire case for Christianity collapses if the resurrection didn't happen.
Jesus is the Ancient of Days and the head of days. He came back from the fruture to save you from your sins so that he will keep his promise not to kill every living soul on earth. That's is why he came in between BC and AD to prove he is the son of the one God that the prophets talk about. He sits on the throne of God him self because he is the great holy one that loves his children
whenever a challenging question like this is asked it is almost always the one that makes the most sense and to me its simple that he was like so many others a failed doomsday prophet...upon the cross he said he would return before his friends died...and its 2000 years of any day now....and youd think a smart loving god would have his son appear at a time when its verifiable where communication is instant and international etc..instead of appearing amongst arguable the least inmtelligent area on earth...but beside foir your book of bronze age mythology theres in fact no proof he existed at all.....
It's a good thing Jesus didn't come back now. He would have had to postpone his crucifixion. Stay safe friends, get vaccinated and don't forget to always wear your mask. Remember that to truly love your neighbour you must give up all of your rights and join the ranks of those who call what is good-bad and what is right-wrong.
People think Jesus hasn’t come sooner but its the opposite. He’s been with us since the Old Testament lol John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. ✝️

I appreciate all you do however, For me this explanation does not answer the question why thousands of years of suffering, death, chaos, terrible deeds happened before God decied to send Jesus. It sounded like just revised version of information I have always heard in my life. The question was not answered for me.
And also the father of lie who didn't know when his head would be crashed would have spread lies trying to prevent belief in the coming promised seed of the woman. The promise was part of the collective memory of mankind. See also C.S. Lewis (mere Christianity?). The title: Person of Interest
@@alexwr everyone except me. Cause I waste 10 seconds when I fast-forward too far and have to rewind, then go forward again until I land on the perfect spot. Now I just go to a different video.
The reason God chose Jesus his son was because the Jewish people were worshiping their sacrifices and forgot about God. the simple fact is Jesus was the final sacrifice that after he rose from the dead he baptised in the Holy Spirit .and is what saves us today. Professional Christian authors forgot about God And realised they could make a financial $$ income selling books about God. Matthew 6:24 24 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
I know the answer to that question and you don't have to buy a book from me to get it. The Holy Spirit revealed it to me through Scripture which is my only resource. -God's complete image (3x) and perfect likeness (7): 1) Father "7" 2) Son "7" 3) HS "7" = 777 -Fallen Man's complete image (3x) and imperfect likeness (6): 1) Soul "6" 2) Flesh "6" 3) spirit "6" = 666 When mankind was utterly helpless and unable to provide for his own salvation (because he was controlled by his sinful nature), Christ came at just the right time and died. The generations of Jesus Christ through the lines of Mary (Luke 3) and Joseph (Matt 1): -Through Mary: 1) Adam to 76) Jesus -Through Joseph: This one is harder to explain but there are 3 total time periods representing (2 free + 1 slave) with each period containing 14 generations. Free period #1: 1) Abraham to 14) David Free period #2: 1) David to 14) Josias (Before the carrying away to Babylon) Slave period #1: 1) Jehoiachin (After the carrying away...) to 14) Jesus Jesus death and resurrection started a new and everlasting generation for each generational line: -Result under Mary's: 77th generation = '77' -Result under Joseph: Free period #3: 1) Jesus; "If any man be in-Christ, he is a new creature", "If the son has set you free, then you are free indeed", "The last adam (Jesus) became a life giving Spirit", "The Lord is the Spirit and where the 'Spirit of the Lord' (7) is there's freedom" = '7' In-Christ, we become "777" If He had been born even just one generation early, it would not have worked. There's more in scripture to back this up, but thought I'd share this as a start. You don't need any other resource but the Bible to answer these types of questions.
But this are silly distractions from the real unresolved problem that Jesus as a unique Messanger came in some particular space-time locations, not embracing people outside. And so conservative, non-progressive Christianity, will not even right to launch, to begin function, before it solves that problem. So, maybe people outside believe in proper saviour unconsciously, anonymously? If so, that mission and proselytism is a faulty endeavour and uniqueness of Christ is only declarative, not factual.
It bothers me that I can imagine a better god than Yahweh.....and really without much trouble at all. You'd think it would be harder. Does that bother any one else?
A better question is: How does Santa get into houses that DON'T have chimneys? If anyone out there can make up an answer for that one and somehow sound authoritative, please, write a book about it! Children deserve convincing answers to questions that they have about their favorite feel-good made up stories. Otherwise, they might lose all their 'feel-good' illusions and have to deal with the fact that reality isn't negligible just because they want to believe in magical beings, free presents and flying reindeer.
I am a Christian myself, however its absurd to believe that an all loving, all powerful God can reign over this pain soaked planet of ours. What keeps me in the fold of Christianity is Jesus. While I don't believe that Jesus was the author of love and compassion, he in many ways revolutionized the word love and encouraged us to understand the world from the bottom upwards and in doing so to place ourselves in the shoes of the victims of a merciless world we ourselves have created. The God I meet in Jesus is not a deity or some supernatural being, but a very human person who had the courage to love, forgive and stand his ground against all adversity.
If you do not believe that Jesus is God then you are not a Christian. God loves us enough to allow us to reject Him. God can and does turn intended evil to achieve good. God knows the end result of every decision. Sometimes something bad now leads to something better later. Sometimes what seems better now would lead to much worse later. This life is temporary. Don't put yourself in God's place, you are not qualified. All these things apply to why the world contains thing we see as bad.
Oh but God gave us free will, it’s our choice to love him and accept Jesus as our lord. It’s our task to spread the Gospel to others. But In pain can come redemption, miracles, justice, comfort, transformation...and that through Gods hand brings him Glory!!! This pain soaked planet needs people to see Him and be satisfied with Him. My sibling of Christ, seek more of God, he will help you with your faith.
@@maceylynn6344 That anyone can choose to believe would be disputed by the RCC, Calvinists, Lutherans and Mike Winger "The Bible Thinker". Calvinists believe that God chose who will believe ( the elect) and who will not (reprobates) most of the rest of us ( of the above) believe that while we are unable to believe of our own free will we are able to reject God's free gift of Salvation. This is the subject of whole libraries so I will shut up now.
Totally off topic, feel free to delete, but this triggers me. I wish I had never heard Bob Dylan sing. He sounded like a dying frog. His content is something else altogether.
This guy doesn't understand why Jesus came when he did. Jesus came when he did because of God creating man with free will. The heart of humanity had to be at a point when they truly realized they could not, on their own (with laws, with kings, etc) achieve the righteousness required of God ---- time for Jesus to come when he did.
How do you read the Gospel of John and still claim this? Get into the Word and you will see the truth. From your statement, it shows you do not know the Bible well.
@@thrivewithjesus5216 as Jesus started on his way A man ran up to him and felt on his knees before him "Good teachesr, he asked. "What must I do to inherent eternal life"? "Why do you call me good "?

Oh, yes, he did. If you’ve seen me, you’ve seen the Father. The Word became flesh and walked among us, and the Word is God. I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. There’s more.
@@chardo24 The man did not believe Jesus was God, yet he called him good. The point Jesus was making is that human beings are not good, only God. He was not denying his own deity. You need to read scripture in light of scripture. Don’t take one verse and make such a sweeping conclusion. Only God who is perfect could die for the sins of mankind to atone for them. Jesus is God.
As a Christian I would encourage people to follow Jesus rather than believe the claims that are been made about him by the authors of the Gospels. The Gospels are not live picture portraits. They are sketches that were drawn by artists who lived many years after Jesus died. That's why New Testament Scholar Marcus Borg reminds us that the Gospel narratives needs to be liberated from the first century language and mindset in to which they were born.
Ah ,Marcus Borg! One of the high priests of deconstructing Christianity in the so called Progressive movement! He is often favorably quoted by those who want to consider themselves Christians but without holding to inerrancy, the virgin birth, the resurrection, and other beliefs most Christians have long held sacred! Why even bother to call themselves Christians! This will assuredly lead to shipwrecking of their souls !
@@petethepeg2 What do you mean by biblical inerrancy ? does it mean that in order to be a Christian that one has to believe that God created the world in 6 days, how a snake spoke to eve and told her to eat an apple, that Moses separated the sea , the global flood, how Jesus was born of a virgin performed miracles, was resurrected and went to heaven in a cloud?
@@TikTok-se4cb Your heart seems far from the cross and your words are hard ! MT12:30 He that is not for me is against me. I`m really not trying to judge you but your words sound like those of an atheist. Do you realise that?
@@petethepeg2 How do you know if those were words spoken by the historical Jesus or if not words that were placed on his lips by people of the first century?
@@TikTok-se4cb There are 4 possibilities, among many: 1. You are a wannabe troll. 2. You are simply "in the fold of Christianity", but no true discipleship. 3. You are a progressive/idolatrous 'Christian' 4. You are any other thing, but certainly NOT a Christian.
Jesus never came to earth. But the story was invented because some Jews wanted a messiah right then. Then they made nonsense up. If this god had sent Jesus back, oh before the flood, then a lot of nonsense would not have needed to happen.
@velkyn1 Why are you watching this video and even take the time to send a comment if you do not believe, that Jesus came to save us? Does not make any sense whatsoever.🤔🙃
The Bible says that those who say Jesus never walked in the flesh as God, is the spirit of the Antichrist. I pray that you repent and trust in Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
@@toliveischrist950 Repent what, Leah? Pointing out that Christians have no evidence for their nonsense? Sorry, I'm here to point out the false and harmful nonsense Christians try to spread. Christians also try to claim lots of things as the "spirit of the antichrist". When I was a Christian, and young, I was taken to see the complete idiocy of The Late Great Planet Earth". I got to hear lots of false claims made about people who disagreed and disproved the claims of Christianity. And I've got to see Christians call each other antichrists. I'm not impressed.
As a Christian I don't believe that Jesus will be physically returning back to earth ever. It's just one of those beliefs that originated within the hearts of early Christians, who faced persecution. However each time I show compassion towards another person or even an animal, Jesus comes to me in spirit. Christians who believe that Jesus will be coming back should stop believing in nonsense, because all you people do is turn our faith system in to a joke.
I implore you to read the Bible. That’s where to find God’s truth. Revelation is all about prophecy about the actual physical return of Jesus Christ. His acts of redemption is not yet complete but will be. This is faith.
Hate to break to you buddy but the very system of faith you adhere to IS a joke. You are entitled to believe in anything you chose but why bother calling yourself a Christian ! You are mocking the word and your beliefs don`t even come close to the core teachings of Christ. Perhaps Gnostic ,yes . A little closer to heresy!
@@petethepeg2 You are entitled to remain a literalist. That's your right. But here's my question. How are you going to convince educated young people of these times that Jesus was born of a virgin and that he woke up from the dead , pushed aside the stone and walked out of his tomb? How will you trick people of this 21st century in to accepting first century language and terms ? Can you tell me?
@@TikTok-se4cbI do fine with educated young people as well as uneducated young people thanks! But you are so mistaken !It`s not about the head and education,it`s more about the heart!! Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks ! That`s why I commented that your heart seems so far from the cross!
@@TikTok-se4cb It`s fine to be an atheist ,Just be honest! To use an expression from your side of the argument ,you aren`t being intellectually honest! Actually ,I hate it
From a linguistic perspective, Jesus came at a time when many languages in the "Old World", even those across different language families, still had similar flexible syntaxes, unlike now. This made translating the Gospel message into the other languages a much easier task, as the translations would be literal for the most part without confusing the audience or losing a significant amount of meaning, and I believe this helped the Gospel message to spread more quickly throughout the Gentile nations.
Great point. I have also thought, and have heard and read others thinking the same, that written Koine Greek as well as crucifixion share in the perfect timing. Crucifixion being the choice public execution style at that time, brutal and humiliating compared to other forms of torture/execution through history. Koine Greek being complex and exacting in its written form, a perfect choice to carry into the future and be translated into many languages. Gods timing is always perfect. I’m sure the complexity behind it and the many more reasons why than we’ve (and the video) mentioned would blow our minds.
@@Mandarintoenail1 oh wow yes!! I’ve always thought about this so much, and reading the old testament I came across the ritual for the sacrifice in the altar of the lambs and that just chatteredddd me !!! they where nailed to the altar so the body would scurry around while all the blood was shed. wow GOD IS AMAZING THANK YOU JESUS!!!! oh wow please guys check out the video on One For Israel channel called “what Mary didn’t know” MIND BLOWING!!!!
There are so many things that I, born and raised in a Christian home, have never thought to ask or think about. Fascinating.
God puts faith in our hearts that needs no explanation, but the explanation can still be a blessing if we receive it less as something we have to have in order to believe and more as something that enriches our understanding.
How are you doing 😊😊
Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths”
The Lord drowned all the unborn babies on the earth, approves of human slavery and blood sacrifices.
He is too barbaric for my taste.
@@JamesRichardWiley For YOUR taste? You judge God? The created trying to school the creator? You fool. Let's see how that works for you on judgment day.
@@JamesRichardWiley that’s a very uneducated response.
First God judged the world , as it’s his and everything is from him , not us.
Second this life is not our true destination, we were not created to die, we were always meant to be immortal, the next life is where we will spend eternity.
Third all children go straight to paradise and will be forever with the lord.
Fourth God does not approve of slavery, if you read the scriptures it clearly says anyone who steals a person and sells him will be put to death, this is what modern day slavery is classed as. Slavery in the ancient world was about security and war , it takes a little reading and study to understand this fully.
Fifth blood sacrifice? What animal or human? If you are referring to animals, this is all leading up to the ultimate and very last sacrifice, which was Jesus. You need to do some study to understand this, Jesus gave his life freely for us, he did not have to do this at all , God does not need us at all, but God loves us and knows how weak and broken we are and that we need a saviour, which is Jesus.
Greater love has no one than this, to lay down ones life for his friends.
John 15,13
Just try to understand this and it’s a start.
Don’t deny yourself the knowledge that God gives us , as you are missing out on a eternity of growing in the true knowledge of God.
But why tho
@martinbrown3161 what exactly does it mean that each of the previous sacrifices was leading up to Jesus? (Those are all examples of blood sacrifice, btw)
This was great! Jesus always and forever!
Cannot wait for this book!
Lol so love Jim Wallace ask Jim a question he goes a mile a minute God Bless him.
What a great interview! Thanks so much, Alisa, for sitting down with J. Warner Wallace to share this wonderful insight! Thank you for your ministry.
Hello how are you doing 😊😊
It was such a pleasant surprise to see you speak at the women’s summit today at my church!! I’m a subscriber and a fan of yours. I love what you’re doing for the Kingdom. God bless you and your family.
Warner Wallace is probably my favorite apologist and critical examiner of Christianity.
His books are great!
I learned most of this from Dr. Merrill Tenney in Wheaton Grad School in 1973. Tenney's book, New Testament Times, points out these same factors.
Haven't heard such an explanation before, lots to think about. Thank you so much for sharing!
In the fulness of time, God sent His Son...
Excellent
Period. end of story!! No explanation necessary!
Two great Christian Apologists... Greatly appreciate both of you
Great interview! I look forward to reading his book!
Hello how are you doing 😊😊
Awesome question. I never studied the timing, knowing it's perfect, but we have to have an answer on this. Thank you
“Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
“Let us break their chains
and throw off their shackles.”
The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.
He rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
“ I have installed my king
on Zion, my holy mountain.”
I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:
He said to me, “You are my son;
today I have become your father.
Ask of me,
and I will make the nations your inheritance,
the ends of the earth your possession.
You will rule them with an iron scepter;
you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”
Therefore, you kings, be wise;
be warned, you rulers of the earth.
Serve the Lord with fear
and celebrate his rule with trembling.
Kiss his son, or he will be angry
and your way will lead to your destruction,
for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.”
Psalm 2
So great, my daughter is learning this passage in her class and we listen every morning to memorize.. so cool to see this written and I’m like “hey I know that verse!” Haha 😂
@@willire8811 - great to hear. It is so good to hide God’s word in our hearts...it’s like having springs of living water in us. It’ll bless your daughter all her days upon this earth. We sing this and other psalms that God has given us to praise and worship Him.
@@petervaichus6978 thanks for the encouragement... I’m coming to realize this as I live life I’m 32 this year and I remember the verses my mother taught me.. those verses brought me through massive doubt and the atheistic thinking (of which my brother ascribes)... I’m so thankful for the school I’m able to send her to, they learn whole passages of scripture which is so good cause it forces the parents to learn it too! I think they learn James chapter 1 in grade 5... so I have 4 more years to get into the practice of learning big wads of scripture haha!
Debating the why’s of the Ultimate Sovereign is futile. Just thank Him and Praise Him.
Yip
But God said he will tell us what to expect, that’s why the Bible is full of prophecy.
I think He loves His children's curiosity - what better to things to think on!🙏😇
I am a Christian and even I think of questions that would cross my mind and I think this is a good one, especially if a person is a history buff.
Your answer will work for The Devout believer, however it is completely useless for the unbeliever. Sometimes we have to give answers that are not just another form of preaching to the choir.
One of the common available resources to ancient theology not mentioned in this brief were the 48 constellations in the stars. The gospel from the virgin birth to the Southern Cross is written in the stars. The heavens declare the glory of Elohim.
I'm not familiar with this. Do you know a link I could look at?
@@codyvandal2860 Great question. I would research Gospel in the Stars or Constellations or something along those lines. Constellations have been around for ages. May The Almighty bless your research.
Here in my country, in Belgium, christianity is in very strong decline. In a few years we won't even have a priest anymore in my parish. Really sad. Will Jesus eventually be forgotten?? What would be the consequence of that?
Isaiah 40:8
@@dfischer5878 Thanks, Donna!
You must spread your religion, it's our duty. Don't force it but preach it to those who don't know it or misunderstand it through reasoning and common sense
Perhaps the Catholic Church is fading because they maintain that it takes the intercession of a priest to reach God. It doesn't. Ask and you shall receive.
Do you think missionaries should be sent there?

a Joy against his pain,

*JESUS is COMING SOON!*
Around 2 years ago I was out riding my bike along a spot that I'm not too familiar with. I felt that "not home" feeling and didn't like it; I started to tell myself *"Well, Jesus is..."* and before I could finish it, my head turns to the right and sees a big sign in the grass: *"COMING SOON!"* - Quickly I burst into laughter at the timing of this. It was *seamless.* So I went home and called my mother on the phone and told her about it. She quickly said to me: *"That's confirmation!"* - As *soon as she said that,* the memory was brought to my conscious mind that I prayed, *just two days before,* asking the Lord if He really told my mother: *"Soon, child, soon."* bass / baritone range, and cannot scream even close to that pitch in the dream.
I learned later in the day that, just 2 days before my dream, *NY* lit up the *One World Trade* center building *PINK,* _IN CELEBRATION OF_ being able to murder babies in the womb at 9+ months! I was shocked (and disgusted) at how this was the confirmation to my dream. Will we be here to see this? I assumed so, or else I see no other reason why the Lord would show me this dream.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been born again since 1996 (at age 17) and my mother has been born again since the early-mid 1970s (her early-mid 20s). We've both had multiple experiences and words from the Lord over the years (about current situations at those times) but *never about anything concerning end times.* Only in the last couple of years did He wake us up to this. So let's keep watch. :)

I think there is similarity story of Jona and Jesus.
Jona was swollen by big fish on Friday and stay in the belly of fish. On Sunday Jona was spit him out to the shore and he still alive.
Jesus was under arrest because Judas coordinated with emperor and crucified him. Al might Gid ascended Jesus directly to Heaven. Someone else die on the cross. He said
Ely Ely Sabatani
Jesus still alive in heaven.
On Sunday the tomb was empty.
Love his book, "Cold Case".
Thanks for such a wonderful show Alisa. Just got a copy of your book. Although I am not a woman, (thank the Lord I know who I am these days, right. lol) I am looking forward to you being with us for the conference next week at RBC which is generating a lot of excitement. It reminds me of when I invited your dad to come to Chandler in 1984. God bless you and the work you continue to do! 🧡
That's a great question.
Why did Yahweh come into form as Jesus to save humanity
when He is always with you?
have you done the podcast about this with J wallace?
Nice one. Thank you, Alisa. You are doing a good job. Keep it up!
This is off topic, but I love Jim's suits!
One important reason Jesus came when he did: the LXX.
Accounts were written about him in a very expressive, flexible and widely used language.
Additionally, the OT scriptures that spoke of him were also translated from a globally obscure language (Hebrew) into a globally used language (Greek). Greek was used in various amounts from Spain to India.
The advanced attribute that Jesus taught upon and demonstrated with his life that wasn't accentuated in former messiahs was forgiveness as a replacement for sacrifice as the way to salvation. The Crucifixion was an extreme case in which Jesus could have blamed others for his murder and even up to this day many debate whether it was the Romans or Pharisees that killed Jesus. Jesus forgave everyone setting the Way for us to do the same, that he made the death of his body happen. We get what we ask for. So we can forgive everyone for anything we think others did to us. So it wasn't about sacrifice but forgiveness. Matt 12.7 "But if you had known what this means I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the innocent."
Wrong conclusion. Jesus would have us have mercy , not sacrifice" is saying Jesus will be the mercy sacrifice for our sins. Yes, we should be full of mercy and sacrifice our lives living not in selfishness but in and through His Holy Spirit. "Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin" Hebrews 9:22
@@fuzfire If sacrifice is to give up listening to the world and listen to the Holy Spirit, I agree with that sacrifice, but pain has nothing to do with that. Doing so makes us blessed, it doesn't bring suffering. See the Beatitudes for the reference. Sickness is a sacrifice that people accept because they think it brings them closer to God, but I don't.
@@fuzfire What other part of life has mercy sacrifices? How can you understand that besides as rote memorization?
Logically speaking, "sooner" is a meaningless concept when dealing with a being who exists outside of time. The answer here is the same one God gave to Job when his human limitations caused him to ask similar questions.
First?
Huh... timely. Haha.
God is Good.
🙏✝️
Yes he is
All of this helps understand why Jesus, the prophet and Messiah, came at this time. But as a deity, that's not remotely convincing. I still believe that God, the Father, is the One and Only God.
Yes they are very similar. This argument holds no water.
In academia two things can be similiar but not the samething. Can you share why you say they are very similiar and not just similiar, or very very similiar? What accepted statistical analysis do you currently use?

Alisa Childers speaks out on the deception of New Age spirituality and so-called Progressive Christianity. Her theology is very reformed and ready to address the big issues of the day. She is in the Biblical tradition of Gresham Machen, Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Francis Schaeffer and John MacArthur.
Excellent video
Good question. Does this not make you question the whole story altogether?
I just chucked out my jeans for developing holes on the knees. If there are two things I can not stand: getting my toes caught in the hole as I attempt to put on my pants, and, cold air invading a design that's supposed to provide an envelope of warmth.
I bet Jesus would say you're all being silly.

Very interesting
C. S. Lewis in Mere Christianity speculates that pagan deities having factors in common with Christ (such as a virgin birth) may be "good dreams" given by God in anticipation of the coming of the true Messiah, the God-man, Jesus Christ.
This is why CS Lewis is considered a false teacher!!
Why didn't he come later when we had video and forensic analysis?
He will and people will still rise against Him.. (talking about His second coming)
@@pauthang1767 I'm not talking about refusing to worship him with my comment. I'm referring to people being able to be convinced he's real in the first place.
@@alexnunn1932 even still then, people will reject Him... but you might be right though that they would believe He exists
@@pauthang1767 yeah totally agree. For example if the bible is 100% correct I don't trust, respect, or love that God at all. Even if it's not, I need a good explanation of why God needs or wants worship from Him. Plus a lot of other questions he needs to answer.
@@alexnunn1932 Hm... I see. Although I came to a different conclusion personally regarding the God of the Bible, I hope you find the answer you need to trust the God of the Bible.
Jesus came when Israel (the nation of priests to the nations) had sunk to their lowest low, and when the gentiles reached their highest high (the Roman Empire). There was no where for humanity to go unless the second Adam came to recreate humanity.
Would like to ask a question. How are you going to convince a young, Christian with a medical degree that Jesus was born of a virgin and that he woke up from the dead after 3 days, pushed the stone aside and walked out of the tomb? I used to believe that these stories were historical, biological facts back during the days when I was a young girl. I then had a chance of going to the UK for studies and that's when I had the privilege of reading theological books from British libraries and meeting up with educated, thinking Christians . That's when I had to change my mind and become a progressive Christian. The bible stories are allegorical and should not be read as if they were yesterdays TV news.
Let me try to answer that. If we were able to go back in time to say, the Medieval Age, bringing along some modern gadgets. It would appear incredible to people back than. God who claimed who He is. He who existed outside our space and time, the One who created this world, did present Himself to us as Jesus, with all the miracles ascribed to him, fulfilling all prophesies written about him in the Old Testament. The early disciples would be deluded and the Bible allegorical if it wasn't true. The entire case for Christianity collapses if the resurrection didn't happen.
People would believe any ridiculous thing at that time, like many still will.
Jesus is the Ancient of Days and the head of days. He came back from the fruture to save you from your sins so that he will keep his promise not to kill every living soul on earth. That's is why he came in between BC and AD to prove he is the son of the one God that the prophets talk about. He sits on the throne of God him self because he is the great holy one that loves his children
whenever a challenging question like this is asked it is almost always the one that makes the most sense and to me its simple that he was like so many others a failed doomsday prophet...upon the cross he said he would return before his friends died...and its 2000 years of any day now....and youd think a smart loving god would have his son appear at a time when its verifiable where communication is instant and international etc..instead of appearing amongst arguable the least inmtelligent area on earth...but beside foir your book of bronze age mythology theres in fact no proof he existed at all.....
It's a good thing Jesus didn't come back now. He would have had to postpone his crucifixion. Stay safe friends, get vaccinated and don't forget to always wear your mask. Remember that to truly love your neighbour you must give up all of your rights and join the ranks of those who call what is good-bad and what is right-wrong.
Interesting to Alisa from a different angle, thought I clicked on the wrong video 🤨
Why I thought that born again Christians wouldn't wear torn jenes. Is too worldly. Forgive me Father🙏
I didn't know Roger Stone wrote another book.

Galatians 4, 4 But when the proper time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born subject to [the regulations of] the Law, 5 To purchase the freedom of (to ransom, to redeem, to atone for) those who were subject to the Law, that we might be adopted and have sonship conferred upon us [and be recognized as God's sons].
Daniel 9,24 Seventy weeks [of years, or 490 years] are decreed upon your people and upon your holy city [Jerusalem], to finish and put an end to transgression, to seal up and make full the measure of sin, to purge away and make expiation and reconciliation for sin, to bring in everlasting righteousness (permanent moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation) to seal up vision and prophecy and prophet, and to anoint a Holy of Holies. 25 Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem until [the coming of] the Anointed One, a Prince, shall be seven weeks [of years] and sixty-two weeks [of years]; it shall be built again with [city] square and moat, but in troublous times. 26 And after the sixty-two weeks [of years] shall the Anointed One be cut off or killed and shall have nothing [and no one] belonging to [and defending] Him. And the people of the [other] prince who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood; and even to the end there shall be war, and desolations are decreed. [Isa. 53:7-9; Nah. 1:8; Matt. 24:6-14.] 27 And he shall enter into a strong and firm covenant with the many for one week [seven years]. And in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and offering to cease [for the remaining three and one-half years]; and upon the wing or pinnacle of abominations [shall come] one who makes desolate, until the full determined end is poured out on the desolator.:

[The next day, the large crowd that had come for the festival heard that Yeshua was on his way into Yerushalayim. They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, “Deliver us!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of Adonai , the King of Isra’el!” After finding a donkey colt, Yeshua mounted it, just as the Tanakh says - “Daughter of Tziyon, don’t be afraid! Look! your King is coming, sitting on a donkey’s colt.” His talmidim did not understand this at first; but after Yeshua had been glorified, then they remembered that the Tanakh said this about him, and that they had done this for him.

Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report. For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it. For the Lord shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act. Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.

Wasn't Jesus supposed to return about 2000 years ago?
I appreciate all you do however,
For me this explanation does not answer the question why thousands of years of suffering, death, chaos, terrible deeds happened before God decied to send Jesus. It sounded like just revised version of information I have always heard in my life. The question was not answered for me.
And also the father of lie who didn't know
when his head would be crashed would have spread lies trying to prevent belief in the coming promised seed of the woman. The promise was part of the collective memory of mankind. See also C.S. Lewis (mere Christianity?). The title: Person of Interest
If people far and wide knew Jesus was born to a virgin, why no interest in His youth?

The reason God chose Jesus his son was because the Jewish people were worshiping their sacrifices and forgot about God.
the simple fact is Jesus was the final sacrifice that after he rose from the dead he baptised in the Holy Spirit .and is what saves us today.
Professional Christian authors forgot about God And realised they could make a financial $$ income selling books about God.

24 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

Wow. This comment section is a dumpster fire
I know the answer to that question and you don't have to buy a book from me to get it. The Holy Spirit revealed it to me through Scripture which is my only resource.
-God's complete image (3x) and perfect likeness (7): 1) Father "7" 2) Son "7" 3) HS "7" = 777
-Fallen Man's complete image (3x) and imperfect likeness (6): 1) Soul "6" 2) Flesh "6" 3) spirit "6" = 666
When mankind was utterly helpless and unable to provide for his own salvation (because he was controlled by his sinful nature), Christ came at just the right time and died.
The generations of Jesus Christ through the lines of Mary (Luke 3) and Joseph (Matt 1):
-Through Mary: 1) Adam to 76) Jesus
-Through Joseph: This one is harder to explain but there are 3 total time periods representing (2 free + 1 slave) with each period containing 14 generations.
Free period #1: 1) Abraham to 14) David
Free period #2: 1) David to 14) Josias (Before the carrying away to Babylon)
Slave period #1: 1) Jehoiachin (After the carrying away...) to 14) Jesus
Jesus death and resurrection started a new and everlasting generation for each generational line:
-Result under Mary's: 77th generation = '77'
-Result under Joseph: Free period #3: 1) Jesus; "If any man be in-Christ, he is a new creature", "If the son has set you free, then you are free indeed", "The last adam (Jesus) became a life giving Spirit", "The Lord is the Spirit and where the 'Spirit of the Lord' (7) is there's freedom" = '7'
In-Christ, we become "777"
If He had been born even just one generation early, it would not have worked. There's more in scripture to back this up, but thought I'd share this as a start. You don't need any other resource but the Bible to answer these types of questions.
Interview Bart Ehrman
But this are silly distractions from the real unresolved problem that Jesus as a unique Messanger came in some particular space-time locations, not embracing people outside. And so conservative, non-progressive Christianity, will not even right to launch, to begin function, before it solves that problem. So, maybe people outside believe in proper saviour unconsciously, anonymously? If so, that mission and proselytism is a faulty endeavour and uniqueness of Christ is only declarative, not factual.
I listen Rabbi and Islamic scholars about returning of Jesus. I think Jesus will destroy Christianity, because of paganism
It bothers me that I can imagine a better god than Yahweh.....and really without much trouble at all. You'd think it would be harder. Does that bother any one else?
U haven’t really done your research, bud 😂

A better question is: How does Santa get into houses that DON'T have chimneys? If anyone out there can make up an answer for that one and somehow sound authoritative, please, write a book about it! Children deserve convincing answers to questions that they have about their favorite feel-good made up stories. Otherwise, they might lose all their 'feel-good' illusions and have to deal with the fact that reality isn't negligible just because they want to believe in magical beings, free presents and flying reindeer.
When I was an atheist, I was happy with stories of santa, but as a believer in Christ I can not, so what are you saying?
@@somethingtothinkabout167 I think he is dripping with sarcasm...
I am a Christian myself, however its absurd to believe that an all loving, all powerful God can reign over this pain soaked planet of ours. What keeps me in the fold of Christianity is Jesus. While I don't believe that Jesus was the author of love and compassion, he in many ways revolutionized the word love and encouraged us to understand the world from the bottom upwards and in doing so to place ourselves in the shoes of the victims of a merciless world we ourselves have created. The God I meet in Jesus is not a deity or some supernatural being, but a very human person who had the courage to love, forgive and stand his ground against all adversity.
Jesus is God in human flesh. Do you believe scripture?
If you do not believe that Jesus is God then you are not a Christian.
God loves us enough to allow us to reject Him.
God can and does turn intended evil to achieve good.
God knows the end result of every decision. Sometimes something bad now leads to something better later.
Sometimes what seems better now would lead to much worse later.
This life is temporary.
Don't put yourself in God's place, you are not qualified.
All these things apply to why the world contains thing we see as bad.
You're in the right place. I suggest watching the documentary American gospel christ crucified.
Oh but God gave us free will, it’s our choice to love him and accept Jesus as our lord. It’s our task to spread the Gospel to others. But In pain can come redemption, miracles, justice, comfort, transformation...and that through Gods hand brings him Glory!!! This pain soaked planet needs people to see Him and be satisfied with Him. My sibling of Christ, seek more of God, he will help you with your faith.
@@maceylynn6344 That anyone can choose to believe would be disputed by the RCC, Calvinists, Lutherans and Mike Winger "The Bible Thinker". Calvinists believe that God chose who will believe ( the elect) and who will not (reprobates) most of the rest of us ( of the above) believe that while we are unable to believe of our own free will we are able to reject God's free gift of Salvation.

This guy doesn't understand why Jesus came when he did. Jesus came when he did because of God creating man with free will. The heart of humanity had to be at a point when they truly realized they could not, on their own (with laws, with kings, etc) achieve the righteousness required of God ---- time for Jesus to come when he did.
you can waste your entire life attempting to rationalize the irrational.
Lies, lies, les Jesus did not say he was God.
How do you read the Gospel of John and still claim this? Get into the Word and you will see the truth. From your statement, it shows you do not know the Bible well.
@@thrivewithjesus5216 as Jesus started on his way A man ran up to him and felt on his knees before him "Good teachesr, he asked. "What must I do to inherent eternal life"? "Why do you call me good "? Jesus answered. "No one is good except God alone"? Jesus in the Gospel of John say the same don't worship me "it is not that I honor no man however I told you so for your own salvation."
Oh, yes, he did. If you’ve seen me, you’ve seen the Father. The Word became flesh and walked among us, and the Word is God. I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. There’s more.
@@chardo24 The man did not believe Jesus was God, yet he called him good. The point Jesus was making is that human beings are not good, only God. He was not denying his own deity. You need to read scripture in light of scripture. Don’t take one verse and make such a sweeping conclusion. Only God who is perfect could die for the sins of mankind to atone for them. Jesus is God.
@@toliveischrist950 He is the beginning and the end. He is not the middle?
As a Christian I would encourage people to follow Jesus rather than believe the claims that are been made about him by the authors of the Gospels. The Gospels are not live picture portraits. They are sketches that were drawn by artists who lived many years after Jesus died. That's why New Testament Scholar Marcus Borg reminds us that the Gospel narratives needs to be liberated from the first century language and mindset in to which they were born.
Ah ,Marcus Borg! One of the high priests of deconstructing Christianity in the so called Progressive movement! He is often favorably quoted by those who want to consider themselves Christians but without holding to inerrancy, the virgin birth, the resurrection, and other beliefs most Christians have long held sacred! Why even bother to call themselves Christians! This will assuredly lead to shipwrecking of their souls !
@@petethepeg2 What do you mean by biblical inerrancy ? does it mean that in order to be a Christian that one has to believe that God created the world in 6 days, how a snake spoke to eve and told her to eat an apple, that Moses separated the sea , the global flood, how Jesus was born of a virgin performed miracles, was resurrected and went to heaven in a cloud?

Jesus never came to earth. But the story was invented because some Jews wanted a messiah right then. Then they made nonsense up.
If this god had sent Jesus back, oh before the flood, then a lot of nonsense would not have needed to happen.

@@toliveischrist950 Repent what, Leah? Pointing out that Christians have no evidence for their nonsense? Sorry, I'm here to point out the false and harmful nonsense Christians try to spread.

@@lovelife3602 indeed if if if and Christians can't explain just how stupid their god was.
As a Christian I don't believe that Jesus will be physically returning back to earth ever. It's just one of those beliefs that originated within the hearts of early Christians, who faced persecution. However each time I show compassion towards another person or even an animal, Jesus comes to me in spirit. Christians who believe that Jesus will be coming back should stop believing in nonsense, because all you people do is turn our faith system in to a joke.
I implore you to read the Bible. That’s where to find God’s truth. Revelation is all about prophecy about the actual physical return of Jesus Christ. His acts of redemption is not yet complete but will be. This is faith.
Hate to break to you buddy but the very system of faith you adhere to IS a joke. You are entitled to believe in anything you chose but why bother calling yourself a Christian !
