Thank you Professor Lennox for devoting your life to God and to teaching His marvelous works! I can’t begin to tell you what an impact your teaching has made on my life. May the Lord bless you and keep you, make His face to shine upon you and give you peace! ❤️
I love to listen to John Lennox speak about the Bible…his wonderful Irish accent pulls you right in and focus on every word. Thank you John Lennox for sharing your wisdom and knowledge of….the inspiring Word. ❤️✝️
I discovered John Lennox about 2 months ago and often find myself putting him on when I'm at the gym throwing weights around. His voice and words energize and motivate me to not only be a better Christian, but to be bigger and stronger.
So many people have the ability to play musical instruments brilliantly, but sadly, so few of them seem to know that music was given to us so that we might worship our Creator, to lift Him up, so that we are also lifted up into His presence.
And don't forget God sings. Zephaniah 3:17 KJV The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
Beautiful - thank You Father God for Singing Over Us. Yours is the sweetest voice. Your lyrics the most sublime - bringing healing, connectedness and wholeness as You connect us with You and through You to all Your awesome creation. Praise to You Father, Son and Holy Spirit in Your World Without End. Amen Amen. Hallelujah
The human brain (scientist or not) is very susceptible to pareidolia, apophenia, hallucinations, superstitions and gullibility; That's why so many people have been fooled by religion.
Ooohh this makes me so happy! 😊I have been preaching this sermon for years. I am a music teacher..I have been sent by God, young girls who needs creativity bc they are lost in their identity and they don't know how to claim space for their views and feelings. I saw these precious souls able to express themselves and expel bottled up emotions when given a song of their choice to sing.. Art is healing and it helps a person to identify who he/ she is & what he/she is all about. The arts also brings purpose to life for some.. What each individual thinks, feels and believes in is very important to each soul as it gives them a voice and a valid place to belong while here on earth.
I'm a music teacher and songwriter. I responded to the song "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man o' Mine," from the musical "Showboat," with: "Don't need a boyfriend, Don't need a date. Don't need a girlfriend To make me feel great. Won't Stop Respecting That Self of Mine.... Pm me for the rest of my parody. The women's chorus at a local high school liked my version better than the original.
"gods" are narcissistic self- delusions. Singing, however, is a manifestation of delight, and as the texts more ancient than that evil bible, the Universe is Composed of Delight. You would not live without hedonic pleasure. Lions, by the way, murder the offspring of other males. so Lewis and his inaccurate analogies, was just a dimwitted messianist.
All fine and good as long as art, music etc., do not become ‘God’ in themselves: we worship God first and always first. Youngsters (and many adults) should be reminded of this, or else it becomes idolatry.
@@afterlate8866 Such an important footnote to keep in mind. I have had struggles with this myself to some degree. I remind myself often with a paraphrase of Jesus by thinking to myself, "She who loves music more than Me is not worthy of Me." It's a challenge to work it out sometimes but necessary.
@@afterlate8866 That is a rather silly comment. Not making idols applies to almost every human activity. The thing about the arts is that they can capture truth that cannot be articulated in any other way. I have found that when people really come to an 'at one' experience with Christ. Where Christ becomes both centre and periphery, they discover a new joy in the arts. They find Christ in the music they listen to, the books they read, the art they behold and the films they watch. And they are drawn towards the kind of art that expresses in ways that words cannot something of the reality of who God is. 'He who sings prays twice.'
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
@@BeefT-Sq Nathanel Branden is describing Blind faith. To have blind faith is stupidity. Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners by His death and resurrection. He worked miracles, healed the sick, cast out demons fortold the future, raised the dead, and fulfilled hundreds of Old Testament prophecies. For 8 prophecies to happen by chance is mathematically impossible. Now, you can see why Christianity is based on true faith not blind faith. Science on the other hand changes constantly so beleiving in science is based on blind faith. Science does nothing! People do science and Scientists can and do tell lies. The more we learn from following the scientific method, which came from the Bible, the more our eyes are opened to the truth by discovery. We are still blind to knowing all the truth just as the Bible stated, so their is a blind faith required to believe in scientific evidence. It changes all the time. If Darwin was alive today he wouldn't believe in EVOLUTION! It's scientifically and mathematically impossible, yet millions of people still believe it to be true, with blind faith. No evidence exists for neo evolution. Maranatha
What a tremendous impetus to worship and praise. John Lennox still has the ability, under God, to draw the heart out in awe and reverence for the Saviour Who is Christ the Lord.
AMEN & AMEN I Love to listen to him. If I had the knowledge that he has I will also spread it as far and wide as I possibly could. God bless you richly as you spread His beauty, creativity, Power and Love.
I just discovered this “treasure.” My heart has been so overwhelmed with the joy of the Lord. each time I have listened to his messages’. What an earthly treasure.

lennox has the ability to foll you people into thinking he's got something to say when really he's a windbag who gets trounced when debating atheists. go watch him with any atheist, he talks drivel. you can't talk anything but drivel if you think gods are real
I really appreciate Dr. Lennox’s video about the brain and song. As a musician and poet, it gives me hope that God will guide my efforts to shine light of praise to a dark world.
I really don't know what kind of a human being you have to be not to love this man. ❤ God bless you prof. Lennox with better health for many years more ... People need you. God knows that we need you as one of His best messengers.
Beautiful words of the riches that God gave man to show in his wonderful work of tapestry of music, colour, shapes, mathematics , design. He is awesome. I would like to send a prayer that I got in my spirit while sat in my garden in a quiet time. I will also say that I have never written a poem before. Redemption is the kindest part. It takes away a broken heart. It gives us back a heart renewed. So glorious works can be persued. Without the giving gift of life With all its wonders and all its strife.

Thankyou I love ❤️ 😍 💖 your most beautiful 😍 proclamation think thanks worship praise for HIS REDEMPTION CREATION 🙏 AND POWER AND GLORY 😂 AMEN COME QUICK LORD JESUS 🙏 COME AMEN !!! ❤😊❤😊❤😊
As an artist who loves listening to Proff. Lennox, I wasn't expecting a talk on art. Thank you! The new atheists are clearly not artists, or don't see art's connection with science. Numerous times, I have heard them throw in a remark about the wastefulness of God in leaving so much emptiness in space...presumably, their walls are hung like the Royal Academy, with Where's Wally? pictures, with every square cm filled with detail. God has better taste. He knows the value of spacesbetweenwords, pauses in music and speech, quiet times, open spaces, great skies. He knows the precious value of silence and the importance of a day off and a holiday. He marries art, science, craftsmanship and his character in His creation and His sustaining of it. May He sustain our dear brother John to walk with Him. 🙂
Same here, I'm an artist that loves listening to Professor Lennox. I remember channel surfing years ago and then landing on some channel with a random scientist sitting in a room stuffed full of life support equipment. He said that the human placenta performed all the functions of all those clunky boxes. I was immediately brought to tears as I was pregnant with my first child at the time. The sight of all that cold metallic man-made stuff being compared to the warm organic and simple complexity of God's design struck me with awe and reverence for our great creator -- how amazing he is! Then that bloke opened his wretched mouth and ruined what he had said by saying something like, "It's too bad evolution couldn't make it possible for a woman to walk normally in her third trimester instead of walking like a duck." I wanted to reach in that screen and SLAP that fool! Evolutionists are the some of the most intellectually and spiritually bankrupt of people, they are as shallow as the ocean is deep. Nothing can be made without our great God and Savior, the LORD Jesus Christ, nothing! "I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it." - Alice Walker/Shug Avery
I admire both of your comments. That is why I usually take the time to read comments, I learn a lot. I am pleased that many see the beauty and greatness of the Creation and The Creator of All (God) 🙏
I love to listen to John Lennox. Everything He says always confirms my thoughts and beliefs. I just had this conversation with my son last night. How all throughout the Bible it tells us to sing, praise and Worship. There is power and strength in our Words. Thank you Lord for this amazing gift! 🙌💖🙌
What a treasure this man is ,he is not a mystic but he teaches about the ancient paths and the mystical realm, sound ,vibration , reverberation resonance, all used to create everything. How much power is there in sound ? Life and death are in the power of the tongue or the larynx ?
This man brought me back and I owe him everything. Binge watching everything he has put out such an amazing loving teacher. Jesus is so proud of you truly 🙏✝️🕯
Thank you immensely for encouraging this humble poet for God! MORNING PRAYER I dedicate myself to You Today and everyday Come and walk by my side And guard what I think and say Fill my heart with love and kindness As I thank and worship You I pray for revival in the world New faith as the morning dew Come to us and fill our hearts So that they overflow Fill our minds with thoughts of You So Your great peace we'll know O my Lord, you give so much Forever with you I pray I feel so loved and rich and blessed When at your feet I stay Shirley ❤
Always always, John Lennox speaks a language that grips my heart. Let us all make our voices instruments of praise to You, dear Lord. I particularly loved the image of the Lion in " The Magician's Nephew," singing creation into existence, when I read it years ago. It still fills me with wonder. So beautiful a being is our God. Van Goh's paintings are startling in their simplicity, powerful in their message. He revealed the depths of his love for God in his work. Thank you,John Lennox, for validating all of us right brained thinkers. 😊
Next week I’ll teach in my university Music & Civ. Class about the benefits of listening to music. This message gives me some inspiration about highlighting the benefits of music & worship!
@@גקליןיפה Our university has a great music therapy program! Currently I just teach low brass and a Music & Civilization class. I've served as an interim worship leader and love entering God's presence via song and music!
Eloquently said. Thanks John Lennox for always bringing the message to the people of The Book and the world. Love the accent, though. Jesus bless all our journeys to Him. 💞✝️✌🥰🙏
The light of God in some people is marvelous to behold: C.S. Lewis, Rabbi Sachs and now John Lennox. God has in no wise left us without witnesses who see more than others and testify to it. May God have mercy on this generation and raise up more witnesses and labourers in every field and make His light in them more evident even than His light in John Lennox. And may the Holy Spirit speak through them and alone to convict of sins and judgements and that righteousness, rightness with the author of creation, is only through the life work and sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ. Lord have mercy. So many people are just being indoctrinated to hear like Lewis's Uncle Andrew only thinking of God as snarling,if at all. And not recognising the very song that brought them into being and is sustaining their lives and is the fount of every blessing. LORD have mercy. In Jesus's name Amen.
Yes I too spend time in prayer for my children, grandchildren and all the young people in this our generation to seek and find the God who has created them for His glory.
I agree, you're right...But we can have the same wisdom if we only ask! James 1:5 says "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and [a]without reproach, and it will be given to him."
A jam-packed, anointed teaching from Professor John Lennox. So many springboards provided for our faith to leap from into a richer understanding. God bless and heal John, in Jesus ‘name Amen 🙏🏻
I absolutely loved this lecture! It was so beautifuly explained. Thank you so much. The opening of the Similirian, the creation of Middle Earth, and the whole world Tolkien imagined, was also made with a song.
“The exalted and not the manipulated.” Look forward to our Lord and Saviour Jesus leading us in praise when He comes again in Glory ❤. Brilliant and inspirational words of encouragement.
Thank you for this exhortation to use our gifts that God has given us to glorify the Lord God and express our love for him. Praise the Lord, for he is holy his love endures forever.
Rarely in this life, even more scarcely today, does God bring men of the kind of Mr. Lennox for our blessing. I could sit at his feet for hours enjoying the work God produces through him!🙏💪❤️
Wow, wow, and thank you very much for extending and explaining so eloquently and so simple to God's directives so even I could understand. Thank you. You are a great teacher.
I know with assurance that God led me to your video on this subject! You see, I am a singer, by God's grace. I have been focused on the wrong thing when I sing at my Church. I will spare you the details, but mostly I felt I had to prove my worth with my voice. Yes, the Holy Spirit has corrected me and is reminding me God made all of us to praise God because He is worthy. I am made the righteousness of Christ and my calling is to glorify God and Him alone. Dr. Lennox, my husband and I listen to your videos on apologetics. Everyone knows your discipline is Math and we would love to hear more of your Mathematical proofs of God's existence. Anyway, we thank God you are teaching the irrefutable word of God. And we love your personality and Irish accent as well!
if you're christian can you remind god he can't just go around killing people and burning them alive for eternity just because they disagree with him, we have rights. and while you're at it, cold fusion, if god isn't going to do anything about putin (heart attack or something that looks natural), if he's not going to stop the war, (when did he ever stop a war) then the least he can do is hint as to how to get cold fusion working - has he seen my electricity bills since the ukraine debacle started, there's a love eh. don't be pushy though, god has a short fuse.
Thankyou so much for this video. I love the Getty’s music and I am in awe of John Lennox’s apologetics. Both are so encouraging, enlightening and inspire me to worship our magnificent, beautiful and outrageously generous God.
Such INSPIRATION! And wisdom about art, ART is so connected to spirit. As we become technically astute at capturing images invisible to the human eye, we will one day, not only feel but see the spirit that art emanates and radiates. HALLELUJAH!
Thank you very inspiring comments What an Amazing Creator we have and we can call Him FATHER because Jesus paid for it on the Cross with His Precious Blood
So much wisdom and truth! So much food for thought. It makes me want to take time to learn for myself and to ponder God’s creations that we see every day and foolishly take for granted. Most of all, it makes me want to be a better person and a better example of a believer.
Thank you for bringing gods majesty in music and art and word. I was brought to tears, someone hears it! Be blessed all the days if your life. Humble gratitude
How can you not love John Lennox? Endowed with a brilliant mind and the tender heart to lift up the lonely musicians who aren't recognized? God Himself hears you!!
I really enjoy John Lennox. I can listen to him all day and thank god there are people like him in this world working to spread the truth. God bless sir!
What an awesome message...the best on this subject that I have ever heard. ...I'm so glad that the stroke didn't affect his speaking ability..praise God
Thank you for still giving these speaches! I pray God will grant you a long life, your messages are revealing and encouraging. I pray God will heal you completely.
A true teaching from the scriptures. I left the organized church as the congregations are without Biblical teaching in America. I have stated just recently that I miss the congregational singing of the very Scripturally Illiterate Saints. Sigh.
I sing in a local choir, and its at the end of a working week, and l always feel so empowered and envigorated as we sing together hymns and contemporary songs. I know it is A great communication tool to share Gods loving redemption work.
Lord, please give him a hundred years of strength and whole health. What a treasure John Lennox is to us all from the King of Kings.
Amen
Amen and Amen from me too!
What a beautiful prayer. Let me add to it by saying I wish long life on dear John also, that he will continue to speak to those who are lost.

Thank you Kieth and Kristyn! Indeed, the thoughts shared make my heart “sing to the Lord” !!❤
As an artist who loves listening to Proff. Lennox, I wasn't expecting a talk on art. Thank you!
The new atheists are clearly not artists, or don't see art's connection with science. Numerous times, I have heard them throw in a remark about the wastefulness of God in leaving so much emptiness in space...presumably, their walls are hung like the Royal Academy, with Where's Wally? pictures, with every square cm filled with detail.
God has better taste. He knows the value of spacesbetweenwords, pauses in music and speech, quiet times, open spaces, great skies. He knows the precious value of silence and the importance of a day off and a holiday.
He marries art, science, craftsmanship and his character in His creation and His sustaining of it. May He sustain our dear brother John to walk with Him. 🙂
Same here, I'm an artist that loves listening to Professor Lennox. I remember channel surfing years ago and then landing on some channel with a random scientist sitting in a room stuffed full of life support equipment. He said that the human placenta performed all the functions of all those clunky boxes. I was immediately brought to tears as I was pregnant with my first child at the time. The sight of all that cold metallic man-made stuff being compared to the warm organic and simple complexity of God's design struck me with awe and reverence for our great creator -- how amazing he is! Then that bloke opened his wretched mouth and ruined what he had said by saying something like, "It's too bad evolution couldn't make it possible for a woman to walk normally in her third trimester instead of walking like a duck." I wanted to reach in that screen and SLAP that fool! Evolutionists are the some of the most intellectually and spiritually bankrupt of people, they are as shallow as the ocean is deep. Nothing can be made without our great God and Savior, the LORD Jesus Christ, nothing!
"I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it." - Alice Walker/Shug Avery
I admire both of your comments. That is why I usually take the time to read comments, I learn a lot. I am pleased that many see the beauty and greatness of the Creation and The Creator of All (God) 🙏
Lovely comments from blessed people. Thank you!
If I like Where’s Wally pictures, does that make me an atheist? 😕
@@Psalm22v6 Actually, no, it doesn't 🙂 Where's Wally is fun, so why not?
And remember that it doesn't end at v 6- try ps 22 v 24 🙂
I love to listen to John Lennox. Everything He says always confirms my thoughts and beliefs. I just had this conversation with my son last night. How all throughout the Bible it tells us to sing, praise and Worship. There is power and strength in our Words. Thank you Lord for this amazing gift! 🙌💖🙌
What a treasure this man is ,he is not a mystic but he teaches about the ancient paths and the mystical realm, sound ,vibration , reverberation resonance, all used to create everything. How much power is there in sound ? Life and death are in the power of the tongue or the larynx ?
I wasn’t expecting that on a Monday afternoon.
What a wonderful presentation.
I love his heart! I worry that this man and his generation are passing away. Who will stand up once these voices pass on?
You and I. Every (human) being will come to an end at some point, so don't worry about the things you can't change.
Don't worry about these things, God will always have His people to shine for every generation. God will reveal other wonderful people as time goes on.
Such as his cohort Dr. James Tour
This man brought me back and I owe him everything. Binge watching everything he has put out such an amazing loving teacher. Jesus is so proud of you truly 🙏✝️🕯
Thank you immensely for encouraging this humble poet for God!
MORNING PRAYER
I dedicate myself to You
Today and everyday
Come and walk by my side
And guard what I think and say
Fill my heart with love and kindness
As I thank and worship You
I pray for revival in the world
New faith as the morning dew
Come to us and fill our hearts
So that they overflow
Fill our minds with thoughts of You
So Your great peace we'll know
O my Lord, you give so much
Forever with you I pray
I feel so loved and rich and blessed
When at your feet I stay
Shirley ❤
Love John Lennox. He is a true blessing.
Always always, John Lennox speaks a language that grips my heart. Let us all make our voices instruments of praise to You, dear Lord. I particularly loved the image of the Lion in " The Magician's Nephew," singing creation into existence, when I read it years ago. It still fills me with wonder. So beautiful a being is our God. Van Goh's paintings are startling in their simplicity, powerful in their message. He revealed the depths of his love for God in his work. Thank you,John Lennox, for validating all of us right brained thinkers. 😊
Next week I’ll teach in my university Music & Civ. Class about the benefits of listening to music. This message gives me some inspiration about highlighting the benefits of music & worship!
I. Suggest. You. Study. Music. Therapy. Good. Luck. From. Jerusalem ❤❤
@@גקליןיפה Our university has a great music therapy program! Currently I just teach low brass and a Music & Civilization class. I've served as an interim worship leader and love entering God's presence via song and music!
I love you, Dr. Lennox. Thank you for existing. ❤
Eloquently said. Thanks John Lennox for always bringing the message to the people of The Book and the world. Love the accent, though. Jesus bless all our journeys to Him. 💞✝️✌🥰🙏
Thank you John for telling truth and spending your life energy to spread it. 💕👍👌🙏
Thank you, Dr. Lennox, very beautiful, God Bless You and Glory to God!!
The light of God in some people is marvelous to behold: C.S. Lewis, Rabbi Sachs and now John Lennox. God has in no wise left us without witnesses who see more than others and testify to it.
May God have mercy on this generation and raise up more witnesses and labourers in every field and make His light in them more evident even than His light in John Lennox. And may the Holy Spirit speak through them and alone to convict of sins and judgements and that righteousness, rightness with the author of creation, is only through the life work and sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ. Lord have mercy.
So many people are just being indoctrinated to hear like Lewis's Uncle Andrew only thinking of God as snarling,if at all. And not recognising the very song that brought them into being and is sustaining their lives and is the fount of every blessing.
LORD have mercy.
In Jesus's name Amen.
Yes I too spend time in prayer for my children, grandchildren and all the young people in this our generation to seek and find the God who has created them for His glory.
@@christineperera2393 Amen. God bless you and and those you are praying for. In Jesus's name Amen.
My heart and mind were blissfully happy listening to this wonderful discussion. Thank you.
This message is really for our age and speaks a message we must not. ignore.
Thank God for the wisdom He gave Dr. Lennox
I agree, you're right...But we can have the same wisdom if we only ask! James 1:5 says "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and [a]without reproach, and it will be given to him."
I stumbled across this man about 6 months ago and I am so grateful. I love to hear him speak.
Be BLESSING AND HONOR AND GLORY TO HIM WHO SITS ON THE THRONE ….AMEN and AMEN 💥💥💥💥💥❤️❤️❤️
No matter what you think about the world being made in 6 days. Worship GOD! He's definitely responsible. HALLELUJAH!
Oh! Thank you! Another gift from Prof Lennox to us. Tears running down my cheeks ... I can only offer a humble (and huge) THANK YOU!
How absolutely beautiful! Thank you for this! Glory to God! 🎉🌠💫✨🔥
A jam-packed, anointed teaching from Professor John Lennox. So many springboards provided for our faith to leap from into a richer understanding. God bless and heal John, in Jesus ‘name Amen 🙏🏻
I absolutely loved this lecture! It was so beautifuly explained. Thank you so much.
The opening of the Similirian, the creation of Middle Earth, and the whole world Tolkien imagined, was also made with a song.
What a joy to hear this John Lennox the positive message of a loving God who wants the truth moral justice in a sad world right now
“The exalted and not the manipulated.” Look forward to our Lord and Saviour Jesus leading us in praise when He comes again in Glory ❤. Brilliant and inspirational words of encouragement.
Thank you for this exhortation to use our gifts that God has given us to glorify the Lord God and express our love for him. Praise the Lord, for he is holy his love endures forever.
Soul-ly exalted!
gods gifts ignore millions of children every day the lord is therefore useless and not deserving of any praise whatsoever
Hallelujah
Thanks John Lennox for artfully and musically conveying the message of God with accent 🙂. God bless our journey to Jesus. ✝️✌🥰🙏
AMEN ! ! ! & AMEN ! ! ! GOD BE PRAISED ! ! !
Wow… that was so beautiful and uplifting and encouraging! My soul has been nourished - thank you for sharing
I could listen to Lennox all day!
Me, too.
Me too
This is incredible. I wish everyone would listen to this message!
Yes I have just posted this on my Facebook page for anyone who is drawn to this message. Thank you Professor Lennox.
Amen!!
Rarely in this life, even more scarcely today, does God bring men of the kind of Mr. Lennox for our blessing. I could sit at his feet for hours enjoying the work God produces through him!🙏💪❤️
Wow, wow, and thank you very much for extending and explaining so eloquently and so simple to God's directives so even I could understand. Thank you. You are a great teacher.
Wow, wow, wow is all I can say! ❤🙏
A beautiful talk, Thank you so much for this video. God Bless 💯🙏🏻💖💖
I praise God for your life. Thank you for leading me to Christ.
Truly a modern version of King Solomon. May the Lord bless you richly my dear friend Prof. John. I hnger for your wise words.
Beautifully spoken.
I know with assurance that God led me to your video on this subject! You see, I am a singer, by God's grace. I have been focused on the wrong thing when I sing at my Church. I will spare you the details, but mostly I felt I had to prove my worth with my voice. Yes, the Holy Spirit has corrected me and is reminding me God made all of us to praise God because He is worthy. I am made the righteousness of Christ and my calling is to glorify God and Him alone. Dr. Lennox, my husband and I listen to your videos on apologetics. Everyone knows your discipline is Math and we would love to hear more of your Mathematical proofs of God's existence. Anyway, we thank God you are teaching the irrefutable word of God. And we love your personality and Irish accent as well!
if you're christian can you remind god he can't just go around killing people and burning
them alive for eternity just because they disagree with him, we have rights. and while you're
at it, cold fusion, if god isn't going to do anything about putin (heart attack or something
that looks natural), if he's not going to stop the war, (when did he ever stop a war) then the
least he can do is hint as to
how to get cold fusion working - has he seen my electricity bills since the ukraine debacle
started, there's a love eh. don't be pushy though, god has a short fuse.
Ah what a breath of fresh air! Thank you.
13:16 "So my question is..."
John, I've followed in your footsteps and didn't even know you were there before me.
So eloquently and beautifully said sir! Praise God!
Profound!...and beautifully explained.☘️
Thankyou so much for this video. I love the Getty’s music and I am in awe of John Lennox’s apologetics. Both are so encouraging, enlightening and inspire me to worship our magnificent, beautiful and outrageously generous God.
I love how you describe The Lord Jesus ... thank you.
AMEN & AMEN! !
I love this so much I'm watching it again in the same day!
Such INSPIRATION! And wisdom about art, ART is so connected to spirit. As we become technically astute at capturing images invisible to the human eye, we will one day, not only feel but see the spirit that art emanates and radiates. HALLELUJAH!
I came here to hear Lennox sing!!
Love listening to John Lennox. His style of apologetics speaks to both the mind and the heart.
What a beautiful unfolding of this topic.
Thank you very inspiring comments What an Amazing Creator we have and we can call Him FATHER because Jesus paid for it on the Cross with His Precious Blood
respect, much respect to dr john lennox
God is so Amazing in every detail !!!
So much wisdom and truth! So much food for thought. It makes me want to take time to learn for myself and to ponder God’s creations that we see every day and foolishly take for granted. Most of all, it makes me want to be a better person and a better example of a believer.
Beautiful! This message blessed me, thank you Sir for sharing this with us!
Thank you for bringing gods majesty in music and art and word. I was brought to tears, someone hears it! Be blessed all the days if your life. Humble gratitude
How can you not love John Lennox? Endowed with a brilliant mind and the tender heart to lift up the lonely musicians who aren't recognized? God Himself hears you!!
I really enjoy John Lennox. I can listen to him all day and thank god there are people like him in this world working to spread the truth. God bless sir!
This was spot on!! Thank you sir for your faithfulness to the word❤ God Bless you and your family 🙏
Worship You Lord in all manner. There is no beauty or truth but that which You are Yahweh!
Praise the Lord !! Holy name of Jesus !
Bless you Professor Lennox. Thank you so much. You stop the false speakers every time.
Thank you for this. I feel like I am listening to a modern day C.S. Lewis! May God richly bless you. What a gift to the body of Christ you are.
I don't really understand it but I smiled when I heard a theory that everything was made of vibrating strings. I was thinking "God spoke".
So Fascinating! Ty for explaining all of this. God has blessed you. Ty. 👍🏼 💗 🙏🏼
Wonderful! Beautiful! Amazing! God bless him and God bless us all!
Beautiful lecture! ✨✨✨
What an awesome message...the best on this subject that I have ever heard. ...I'm so glad that the stroke didn't affect his speaking ability..praise God
Wow. Powerful. God bless you Dr. Lennox
Thank you for still giving these speaches! I pray God will grant you a long life, your messages are revealing and encouraging. I pray God will heal you completely.
A true teaching from the scriptures.
I left the organized church as the congregations are without Biblical teaching in America.
I have stated just recently that I miss the congregational singing of the very Scripturally Illiterate Saints.
Sigh.
@pamscarr8696 I don't think you are by yourself!
There are still some faithfully biblical churches here, don't lose heart!
@@marebear09 do you know what these Churches teach about the AntiChrist? What Bible do they use? Are they 5013C Churches? Thank you.
Not all of us are scripturally illiterate. Hebrews 10:24,25 says not to forsake the gathering of the brethren...
What a beautiful sermon! A priceless treasure.
God Bless you 🙏
I am always encouraged and educated by John Lennox.
Thank you John Lennox. God bless
Great mind and great Christian teacher!!
Bravo! Yes! And Amen!!! ❤
Incredible amazing singing world by God's Words. ❤🎉
I sing in a local choir, and its at the end of a working week, and l always feel so empowered and envigorated as we sing together hymns and contemporary songs. I know it is A great communication tool to share Gods loving redemption work.
That sounds wonderful!
