- We hear a lot of things about God. Things in church, in songs, on the news, and in the bible. But what if everything we have heard is actually true? Well, no everything, but what if God really is who he says he is? In this spoken word poem, Jon asks a dangerous question...What if?

This is going to cause people to doubt their doubts, and that's amazing.
Will Cotterall could not say it better myself..
Who tf told you? God aint real
No. I still doubt
what if? you are,
what if you can change me.
my heart's pounding
when i heard that, almost teared up
I teared up
He can!
Speaking from experience
@@jesuslovesyou3402 aww men. I hate you for replyin hahaha
God is working in you !! He IS transforming you. He loves you ❤️❤️❤️❤️ !!
God's not dead. He is surely alive.
He’s an immortal being
He’s living on the outside. roaring like a lion.
"And even though I can't see you, what if I need you?" Wow! Powerful words
I keep coming back to this video for perspective on God. It's so refreshing. God has truly given you a gift with words, and it's beautiful.
this is soo good, my take from it...
"let the love of God rearrange me from my sins that estrange me to a Saviour who claimed me"
This phrase is good and powerful!
Being a Christian isn’t a religion, it’s a relationship with God. You have to have Faith and believe. ❤️
So much expression and passion in your voice. So much emotion, I could feel through my computer screen. 😮
Praise God!
*Stop over*
Much ❤️!
I noticed that there is only one dislike. and compared to the likes, it's weak. There are so many amazing people in this world that I don't even know. Thank you.
haha. love it. thanks for the support!
JonJorgenson of course! 😄 I love your poems! Keep up the great work!

yeah but what you guys fail to see...... is a arising of Athiest that are louder than Christians.
+Jesus Freak I am a Christian but I see Athiest that are louder than us! I see them logically arguing and winning arguments while Christians don't have the right awnser. i see so many people deceived. I am a Christian but what does it mean to really be a Christian? Is it not to act as Jesus act. is it not be doing what He did? You see it's more than just believe...... But true faith is done when you do works because of your belief. you see God does not want us to simply be silent but to shout like a lion. to be bolder than a soldier who has been told to March with no boundaries. you see we are ment to be more but just accept that it's okay to be normal when it's not. we are no longer of the world. for whoever is friends with the world is enemies with God. don't you see it's impossible to be gray when you were ment to be a page so that God could write His grace!
I love pieces that are spoken from the heart like this. Really inspires me to write more.
Amazing! You popped up on my recommendation list and I haven't stopped watching your videos. God bless you and your calling, it has blessed me so much.
I really needed to hear this morethan anything. You put into words what I couldn't find words to say. Thankyou so much Jon, God bless you. Keep making videos like this.
Amazing, thank you. Your spoken words, and videos are making a huge impact in this world and generation. Thank you for being a light, and using your voice for the glory of the almighty King.✨😊🙏
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS. You are so talented and so blessed. Thank you so much for this..so true. I will undoubtedly watch this over and over.
Thank You Jon, another amazing and annointed Spoken Word, Jesus is working greatly through you , What a beautiful poem and artist you are .
thank you for allowing Him to speak through you!!!!
God knew I needed to hear this. I'm really thanking Him for blessing you with such talent. The struggle is real but He is faithful. Have a great day and thanks for sharing! :-)
I don't wonder what if, I know!!! Thank you for sharing. Stay blessed...
"i dont see YOU, but what if i need You. " very well said . truly God is amazing.
I am a published poet and have been into the workshop/ open mic/ slam scene for over 30 years... With " shock" topics so much the vogue, it is nice to see something wholesome and Godly- do not change, be true to yourself, and keep shining!
Amazing as always Jon,
God bless you and blessings from Kentucky.
i am muslim and i like watching your vids because i just love the way you speak and carry yourself... :-)
zaynab lahrach Same,I'm not Christian but he has good points and great word order
+ruby harrison no.

How can man be God. Does not make sense..
Esio Trot are you doubting Gods ability to do so? What about when God came upon the burning bush and spoke to Moses . Do you really think it’s impossible for God?
Nick Yusenko how can god die. Think about it. It doesn't make sense. God is all powerful, all knowing. In Islam Jesus was a prophet of God like many others.
This is the most moving spoken word poetry I have ever heard and seen and felt in my life.
I literally stopped everything I was doing and just listened 💜
'And even though I can't see You, what if I need You?
And I know You will just be You while I sit here and ask-what if?'
@Jon Jorgenson, thank you for your videos. They are powerful. You bring life to the scriptures!!
i've listened this many times, and it always makes me cry.
This gives me strength. Spread the love, because God is love.
thanks Jon. its a blessing watching 'What if'... God showers his blessing more on you
This is SO powerful!!!! I love his series so much!
This is so powerful!! I’m in tears!! 👏
he is changing me. .. as I seek him in his word,, as I learn to love as he does. he is faithful, he is god. I stand amazed.
Thank you, once again I am brought to tears by your amazing spoken word!
Thank you sir for showing me that the word of god can be found anywhere. I was actually looking for tutorials on how to make a spoken word then I found this. Thank you for reminding me that all answers can be found in God.
That made me shed some tears, excactly what I needed to hear. Praise God!
I really love your videos John. It's really encouraging!! God bless you more
And again, I cried. Thank you for this Jon. More videos to come. #FromPhilippines
thanks for watching. glad you enjoyed it!
CJhay Salon wow may ganto pa plng girl ngyon. Tuloy mo lng po yan. Ung malapit kay God 😍
Thank You. Praise God. :)
Jon I am African from Namibia and poetry is what I do and love...
Man you are good. I pray that ur Ministry increases more and more and more coz ur writing is so excellent, beautiful and uplifting but mostly God Praising, Oh Hallelua to the Lord.
My Soul Rejoices when one sees what we do with our talents to Magnify and testify about the goodness of God.
God bless bro...keep going by his Grace
I literally cried. Thank you for making this video. ❤️
Amen +JonJorgenson !!! Very well spoken!!! I loved every single line of the poem. It is so true!!
Wow. Amazing the angles through which God is being exalted.
This was so good! God bless you.
Dude..... wtf. This is insane. Who in the heck are you? Man, this is amazing. Probably watched this 20 times in a row now before commenting. Truly outstanding.
This is beautiful, thanks Jon. I needed to hear this.
Oke, I really like this one! I was my whole life sure about litterly everything, but I asked God to take me deeper. Then there begun the doubting and I was really doubthing about everything! A long time ago I had saved this video to watch it another time and now was the time! So amazing knowing it's God who's leading me♡
This is beautiful! Jon, GOD IS awesome.
God is sooo Good...All the time!!❤️🙌🏽
this is so outstanding..
many at times we are defined
by the world hence brings doubts in our mind about God...
The silence at the end was just at important as all the words spoken, for it was God's turn to speak.
Thanks Jon! Thanks a million! 'What if God is real?'❤️ Hallelujah!
Wonderfully well done. Faith grows strong with such words of grace. God Bless You.
Wonderful! God bless you! Keep making poetries like this!
I have tried writing my own spoken words but they always seen to lack some kind of backbone for them. I LOVE THIS!! What if? I know many Christians who say this especially ones new to the faith. Thank you for providing me something like this. I think it crazy how God works i needed to hear this as i am in a time of need.
Amazing! I felt goose bumps listening to this. Actually brought me to tears!
I went back and this was the first video I ever watched by you. Now, I use your videos as my quiet time... thank you!
I don't believe much in Christianity but this is so powerful and beautiful it gave me chills. I am a poet and have not once wrote a "happy" poem with meaning it. I write about suicide and cutting and my struggles. I don't have happy in my life ... but this has given me the pleasure to write myself a happy poem and mean it with everything in me. Thank you for this powerful poem.
Pls do 🙏🏻
your poems are always so powerful and touching 💪🏻
👍 👍 really loved this one. WHAT IF! can change your whole mind-set.
thanks for watching!
did you know guys. the background music pf it.
Hey
its amaizing
Hey
I can't get enough of this! Thank you for sharing this :)
Rewatched this again, an all timer!!
Amazing. So true. God is all, in all, and through all!
Wow powerful. Absolutely love this.
This made me cry. It was amazing!
I've been blessed bc I can see GOD.
Absolutely love this Jon!
God is so amazing!!
amen.
Yes
Why then did he invent hell or eternal damnation? Why do babies suffer? Why are Antelopes chewed off from their faces by lions? Why is there injustice and poverty and ignorance?
You see if there is a god then he must not be good. He must be indifferent at best and evil at worst. Think about it.
Chinemelu Ezeh God does not so these things . God doesn't send us to hell our own actions do. He is more than merciful unto is but we give up. God is great. He gives us more than one chance at redemption. The devil tries to cast things on but God allows these trails to prove us. He never said it was going to be easy but he did say he would help us. Search his word and you shall find your answer
Assume you were a father and you had a son. If you know fully the limitations of your son's nature, will you test your child using eternal damnation? That isn't love. That's perverted justice. Moreover, in god's case, he doesn't just know your limitations, he made you that way!
Moreover, God created people with their unique abilities and flaws. He created the circumstances that people find themselves in. He can see all of time so he know who is going to hell. We know from revelations that at least one person is going to hell. So you see that he essentially have designed life so that some people will definitely be damned for ever.
That is not a loving God.
I can easily invent a more loving God that what christianity proposes.
Love this. Thank you! ❤
That was amazing! Your poetry is anointed. Never stop writing and sharing for the Lord. God bless💙
Loved this so much
God is amazing🙏🏾
Love this one - great work as always Jon!:)
Very good young man. You have the passion to read God's Word with gusto!!!
This was truly beautiful. Very emotional 👏
This is what I've been looking for. Thank you
What if you could change me, let your love rearrange me, from the sin that estranged me, to a savior who claimed me.
OH MY GOSH, your words are amazing Jon. They rock me to my core. Thanks for being an awesome inspiration and link to God for me.
i was just searching for an example of spoken and this is the first thing i saw. i cried.
I’ve been waiting for this video to reach 1M views for ages 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
... and... what if we believed it!?!? And thus allowed that belief and faith to change and transform us. WHO HE IS SHOULD IRREVOCABLY CHANGE WHO I AM. Great poem.
AMEN!
Amen PRAISE the one and only lord
Son of Nil ... AWESOME RESPONSE!!! Now we just need to be patient in the process of YAH ...1peter 1:*
What if is great. It really gets you thinking...good work...
Ohhhh now! I feel the spirit up and down my spine
Beautiful. Praise be to Lord 🙏
This was amazing, it lit my heart on fire and I'm so thankful that it popped up in my feed. Thank you so much.
So this is the guy who explained us at our English Class about Spoken Word Poetry
Sir I really appreciate your acknowledgement, seriously you really touch my heart.
o my god...this is so damn amazing...words can change the world. infinite positive vibes
Totally Holy Spirit that I came across this today. This is incredible. Thank you.
love this! it's so beautiful and heartfelt and from the gut..
This is exactly what we/I need to hear 🙌
What if.... so powerful man thanks for the great video
Looks like an ancient art still alive.Keep up the good work 👍👍☺😊
l love the message of the poem and background music it's really blending and coming together. Life changing bro. Glory be to God
1:20 - 1:28 was my favorite part.❤ Because how often do we doubt that? How often do we DOUBT God's goodness? How often do we try SO desperately hard to understand God in everything He is and does?
The important thing to remember, I think, is that God was never really meant to be truly comprehended. If He were, wouldn't He just be like the rest of us?
thank you Jon. very timely in my life.
As someone who has self esteem issues and who self condemns. I needed this
Not sure if you've heard the song before, Jon, but this reminds me of the song "Live Like He's Alive" by Jonny Diaz. A powerful reminder to the saved and unsaved.
Who else is in tears.....wow I loved it
This is my favorite of his work!
Not the format that usually speaks to me but this is truly beautiful, moving, deep. thank you for sharing
I had to post to my public Facebook page. Very thought provoking for Christians and Non-Christians alike.
This is “SUPER POWERFUL!”
