I pray one day I get the honor to meet this man. Cliff has helped me understand and grow in my faith with Christ. I have helped friends reconnect with Christ and now we have our own Bible study at home. Thank you for having him! I invited all my friends for this service and they loved it! We will see yall soon! Hopefully Feb. God willing 🙏🏼
Same here I'm actually living in Mexico on Costa Rican I was raised in Phoenix Arizona now right now I just recently found more properness to living christ-like and now that I Matt Cliff through his videos he has helped me complete so much that I never thought that I would know through somebody like cliff so I've recently been urging to meet Cliff someday and go back to the United States and shake his hand 👌
People often say, “I’m not hurting anyone so it’s ok to sin (lying, stealing, sexual sins, disrespecting parents etc)” The same God who said to love your neighbour first said to love Him to the best of your ability. If you carry on sinning, then you do not love God but are selfish like the devil so you will be joined to your father in hell or repent of your sins and believe in Jesus as God so Jesus adopts you as His child and you will join Him in Heaven forever. Issue of sin
Beautiful stuff right here. Ed’s a strong man any young guy could aspire to be like!💪 strong in faith, kind, and hearing him talk is like a breathe of fresh air
Cliffe you are a gift man, you were the main motivation for me to take my Christian faith more serious a few years ago. Today I lead my life having a very strong relationshio with Christ and my life has only become better since. I’m 31 today and I know the Lord will test me in the future, that’s when your videos filled with wisdom and Bible knowledge will help me through. God bless you sir!

We’ve been following cliff for couple do years now. Love what Gods doing through him. However, his answer on voting could have been stronger, followers of Jesus need to vote biblically. Our “conscious” is still bred from our selfish deceitful self. May God have mercy and bless us.
Cliff I needed this video more than you will ever know brother. I was speaking to the lord about my grief and this video is the first on my home page. God is great

Such a great conversation. It’s clear Cliff is very thoughtful and passionate in answering tough questions about faith and Christianity. Learned so much from both these amazing men!
How exciting it is find Pastor Ed Young on UA-cam! This is the man that taught me how to genuinely forgive others through a sermon at FC Plano, when I was 13! I got baptized that same year at that church. I’m 32 now and loving God more than ever! Thank you Pastor Ed Young! God Bless You All 💚
This was such a great conversation with Cliffe. He's brilliant at breaking down some of the most challenging questions. The part about pain and suffering was really good!
Cliffe is so brilliant. I hope him and Jordan Peterson will do a podcast together one day. I pray that it may happen because I suspect the two men fleshing out existential problems together as they wrestle with God... it will be incredibly wise beyond imagination from both! It would be just amazing to see how the Holy Spirit will speak through each of them as they interact with each other ❤
Biblical Truth as Interpreted by the church is NOT GOD TRUTH...!! God Truth is Spiritual and must be Spiritually Discerned. The Church, it's pastors, and its followers remain ignorant of this even though it states it in Corinthians 2:4 that Spiritual Things must be Spiritually Discerned or else it is simply Foolishness, such as Christianity.
I want to thank my Father God for allowing you, Cliffe, to be a tool of the Lord's and be able to, at least I can speak for myself, help me tremendously to understand how ungrateful I am through your speaking at colleges and having the education on the Gospels, and the other 62 books of Love, to be able to confront any 'debate' and leave the other party grasping at straws to avoid admitting defeat. I would enjoy having a lengthy conversation with you and be able to get through my own spiritual battles every day. I am a hypocrite and ask for your sincere prayers for my growth in understanding and strength to overcome my spiritual battles in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Happy Thanksgiving day, may God bless you and your family.
I think we are all hypocrites sometimes but thank God, He helps us all the time to confess it and thank Him for His forgiveness. We need to believe this and claim this all the time because the enemy doesn't want us to be victorious in our Christian life. I thank God for Cliff for his passion in declaring the truth, he is a blessing. Praying that more people will listen to all the videos so their questions are answered..God bless you for sharing!
Cliffe Knechtle is not a good person. He is a paid professional actor who pretends to be an intellectual and uses his highly edited videos to appear smarter than he actually is. His "answers" make no sense and when he is asked a question, often times he attacks the person asking the question, including Cliffe's fans in the comments also attacking the person. He is definitely a "tool", but in the derogatory sense of the word. Believe me, nobody is "grasping at straws" when debating him. His default response is a man who knows little to nothing about how the universe works.
@steviacandyman7892 I'm sorry you feel that way. We all have our own opinions, and we all have the right to express our opinions. Facts are facts though. I was 19 riding a bicycle and encountered a pick-up truck that was traveling 45-50 mph. I lost my military career, I lost my left eye, received a major TBI, was in coma for awhile, among other things. I died 9 times and had 9 doctors with 2 neurosurgeons that said I would need to learn everything again. By the grace of God I didn't. How do you think I survived? It wasn't strictly due to the drs.lone knowledge. I feel there was a higher power who was standing with me as I laid on the road with blood coming out of my eyes, ears, nose, and mouth as my brother, who was behind me on a bicycle and seen it happen, told me. I hope you change your viewpoint. I understand, as most other people do, that the truth hurts, but if you love people you will speak the truth. I would like to know more on your opinion about your personal feelings on Cliffe's debates and the reasons for them. You may see that it is due to fear, but I tell you that fear is a liar. Unless you read, with an open mind, the texts that Cliffe refers to then you will continue down this dark and lonely road.

Then you will still be confused. You people cannot even decide what the "word of God" actually is. Then you claim that is your standard? Is it the bible with 66 or 80 books? Is it the KJV or the NIV? When you say "word of God", you imply a singular source of information and yet the truth is quite obvious. You don't have a "single" source of anything. You are selling a product that you cannot tell people what it actually is.

Would like to add to the voting discussion: also consider the CHARACTER of the people running for any office. We don't want liars, blasphemers, and sharp tongues representing us. You will know them by their fruit, not what they say.
I like Cliff a lot, he is really letting the holy spirit talk through him, but one man dont know all the truths. I believe God has dispersed His wisdom on many. For example do I believe Hugh Ross; the christian astrophysicist, has found the true connection between The Book of Nature( laws of nature) is compatible 100% with The Book of Life ( the scriptures..) 🙏bless you all
The Great Day of the Lord 1 The word of the Lord which came to Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah. The Great Day of the Lord 2 “I will [a]utterly consume everything From the face of the land,” Says the Lord; 3 “I will consume man and beast; I will consume the birds of the heavens, The fish of the sea, And the [b]stumbling blocks along with the wicked. I will cut off man from the face of the [c]land,” Says the Lord. 4 “I will stretch out My hand against Judah, And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. [d]I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place, The names of the idolatrous[e] priests with the pagan priests- 5 Those who worship the host of heaven on the housetops; Those who worship and swear oaths by the Lord, But who also swear by [f]Milcom; 6 Those who have turned back from following the Lord, And have not sought the Lord, nor inquired of Him.” 7 Be silent in the presence of the Lord God; For the day of the Lord is at hand, For the Lord has prepared a sacrifice; He has [g]invited His guests. 8 “And it shall be, In the day of the Lord’s sacrifice, That I will punish the princes and the king’s children, And all such as are clothed with foreign apparel. 9 In the same day I will punish All those who leap over the threshold, Who fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit. 10 “And there shall be on that day,” says the Lord, “The sound of a mournful cry from the Fish Gate, A wailing from the Second Quarter, And a loud crashing from the hills. 11 Wail, you inhabitants of [h]Maktesh! For all the merchant people are cut down; All those who handle money are cut off. 12 “And it shall come to pass at that time That I will search Jerusalem with lamps, And punish the men Who are settled[i] in complacency, Who say in their heart, ‘The Lord will not do good, Nor will He do evil.’ 13 Therefore their goods shall become booty, And their houses a desolation; They shall build houses, but not inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards, but not drink their wine.” 14 The great day of the Lord is near; It is near and hastens quickly. The noise of the day of the Lord is bitter; There the mighty men shall cry out. 15 That day is a day of wrath, A day of trouble and distress, A day of devastation and desolation, A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, 16 A day of trumpet and alarm Against the fortified cities And against the high towers. 17 “I will bring distress upon men, And they shall walk like blind men, Because they have sinned against the Lord; Their blood shall be poured out like dust, And their flesh like refuse.” 18 Neither their silver nor their gold Shall be able to deliver them In the day of the Lord’s wrath; But the whole land shall be devoured By the fire of His jealousy, For He will make speedy riddance Of all those who dwell in the land.
Cliff says I do not know, Almighty God says I DO know because I AM the one true God Himself! I would rather listen to God who knows all things than to a man who doesn't. No disrespect to Cliff but it's a no brainer for me. 😊
i don't hate islam i just respect the islamic religion however there are some things i disagree with islam for example, islam believes Jesus isn't God but to christians, Jesus is God and there is this debate between christianity and islam
We believe in a living God not a God who is mute and cannot communicate. Then why would we think that it must be impossible for God to speak to us in words that we can see and read and understand. He came to earth as John
I pray one day to meet Jesus who returned as Almighty God rather than a mere man who admits often "I do not know." I don't worship any man or earthly hero like I was fooled in the past. I worship the one true God Jesus Christ who has a new name as Revelation prophesied "the Almighty."
Almighty God's words says that giving alms to the poor or charity is not the focus of our duty to God nor is it God's will. God's will is to save mankind but charity distracts us away from our real duty which is to real Almighty God's words in order to know how we can cooperate with God in order to become approved, commended and qualified qualified by God to enter His kingdom. That is our whole duty in life and all the rest cannot and will not get us into heaven. If we miss this our whole life of faith in God will be bankrupt and we will miss heaven. 😮

As Jesus not John sorry my typo mistake. He came as a human and humans at that time saw, heard, talked with, walked with, ate with and lived alongside with God in human form. He promised to come back again and that has come true. Actually He doesn't just come back once but twice according to the Bible, first as a thief in the night or in other words in secret then publicly on clouds when every eye will see Him. He will be rejected by this generation because He comes back as an ordinary human or in other words a son of man or incarnated flesh of God the first time and the second time He comes back with power and great glory on clouds with all the millions of His angels. Then "all kindreds shall mourn" this is because they will realize that He is Almighty God or Jesus whom they rejected or "pierced." Almighty God IS Jesus! What a jaw dropper that will be!!!😮😢😮😢😮😂
I'm pretty sure other Christians would say a completely different thing than you just said. You people cannot even agree amongst yourselves about the basic "essential" doctrines, and you expect any serious person to believe you?
I prayed God You loved me so much that You CAME as Jesus! Sent Jesus means that God's Spirit sent Himself into a baby named Jesus conceived by the Holy Spirit born of a virgin Mary so it was a miraculous birth created by God in order that God Himself could enter our world similar to us except without sin to become our sacrifice in our stead to redeem us of our sins. We still sin today that is why He had to come back again to complete the work of judgment and salvation on us.
Matthew 34 GOD comes with a sword 🗡 , u said GOD doesn’t come with a sword but a towel ? How so when scripture says GOD comes with a sword ? Please explain
How do you see about Ethiopian orthodox chrstianity????? We believe it is the right chrstianity. It lives more than 3,000 years even before birth of Jeses christ with old testament

I love Cliffe but we are and live in a country of the republic. The demonizing politicians tried changing the term from republic to democracy. It’s in the pledge. “And to the republic” but vote for the person that has the same values as you. Vote for common sense and the research that you have done yourself and that you weren’t told. Pray on it.
Contrary to popular belief, America is not, nor was it meant to be, a pure democracy. America 🇺🇸 is a republic. Nevertheless, more and more voices today are calling for America to become a direct democracy.

Praying a prayer does not save you. You must believe, repent, confess, be baptized and live faithful. Acts 2:38. How was the Apostle Paul save. Read the book of Acts to learn Truth about the Salvation Plan. 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 you must obey the Gospel and be added to the LORD'S Church.
That is nice, however it is meaningless. Every Christian believes something different and it is such a spectrum, one end to the other could almost be called entirely different religions. You people don't even agree on salvation, or the basic teachings of Jesus Christ in the new testament. It's called "getting your story straight" and your religion fails more than any other one I have seen. Then we are expected to take anything else you say as the truth when you can't even establish what that is among yourselves? No thanks.
@@braydenweese1407 except that it is. the term doesn’t need to be explicitly stated in the Bible. we gave it a term for us to better understand it. it is however Biblical in concept because it asserts that God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one in 3 persons, rather than being completely separate from one another. John 1:1-5 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” From the very mouth of Jesus in John 10:29-30 “My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.””
I used to love listening to Cliff until I found out that he's a work salvationist therefore, he is a heretic and you guys need to stay as far away from him as possible

Unfortunately Cliff does not have a proper understanding of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints… if you want to cherry pick minute details of the History of Joseph smith go right ahead, but please do not discredit the rest of the restored truth. I promise you the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is in this Church and once you seek for a further understanding, the Spirit will confirm upon you the validity of what we preach. Christs Church is opened to all. We welcome everyone. There is so much knowledge, understanding, and blessings in this church. William Shakespeare once said “knowledge is the wing where with we fly to heaven” I love you all. Peace
Ed and Cliff... you dudes are still stuck in the 1980s. The only one's interested in "evangelical apologetics" is already-convinced evangelicals.Have you every met anyone who was "converted" by "biblicistic apologetics?" Uhhhh... noooo. Or, rarely. You know who ends up loving apologetics? People "after" the come to some sort of faith. Ask Josh McDowell, ask even Cliff Knechtle, or Josh's son, Sean, hell, ask the "apologetics department at Talbot Seminary, "who here was converted to evangelicalism thru "apologetics?" Few... if any. And the stories, illustrations, the biblicistic gymnastics Cliff is using... are the same dumb circular answers from 1982. Hell, Cliff isn't even dressing any different. He still looks like he shops from the same 1984 Lands End catalog. Remember, knowledge is not intellect. It's just knowing stuff. It's not actual deep theology. It's just updated Great-Awakening-until-2024-American-Evangelical-ChristianISM. It's time to evolve and give a better message about Christ's LOVE.
To answer your question, the main point of evangelical apologetics isn’t to convert someone to Christianity. It’s to have an open and honest conversation about faith and to allow the person to open themselves up to the truth so that in time once that seed is planted that they seek truth and see for themselves what Christ is all about and by God’s grace will turn to Christ. No man can convert someone, only Jesus Christ thru the Holy Spirit can change someone’s heart. Apologetics is like a how-to guide on spreading our faith like the Bible calls us to do. Hope that helped, God bless🙏🏼
I know several people converted by apologetics! These type of argument’s and thought processes were super useful for me in college and conversations with others in general. Being able to argue for the faith is a useful tool for spreading the message of Christs love!
The etrnal truth of the Gospel doesn't 'evolve'. "...Jesus answered them, “You are wrong because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God."- The Holy Bible - Book of Matthew - Chapter 22 - Verse 29
Dang bro you're a certified hater. I'll have to say there are millions of views on all of Cliffe's content that disagree with you. People, especially young people, are incredibly engaged on this topic. Get out of your little echo chamber and go lead someone to Christ. These are the questions people are asking
I pray one day I get the honor to meet this man. Cliff has helped me understand and grow in my faith with Christ. I have helped friends reconnect with Christ and now we have our own Bible study at home. Thank you for having him! I invited all my friends for this service and they loved it! We will see yall soon!

I remember 2020 when I binge watched all of Cliff’s videos and I wasn’t even a Christian. Now I am and he played a huge role in that

What an insightful conversation! So much wisdom.
The insight is incredible! Thank you for this!
THIS!! wow. Everyone needs to hear this!
What is your reason for living? I live for Christ. This makes so much sense. What else can we live for that makes sense except living for Christ ❤❤❤
To me, it makes no sense. Are you asserting this Christ is a _reality?_
Amazing. Inspiring. Challenging. I’m going to watch this again and again

People often say, “I’m not hurting anyone so it’s ok to sin (lying, stealing, sexual sins, disrespecting parents etc)” The same God who said to love your neighbour first said to love Him to the best of your ability. If you carry on sinning, then you do not love God but are selfish like the devil so you will be joined to your father in hell or repent of your sins and believe in Jesus as God so Jesus adopts you as His child and you will join Him in Heaven forever.

Thank you great video
Very good explanation, wow, Cliffe is really smart lol
Life is fair
Vote with the Word of God as your standard!!
Then you will still be confused. You people cannot even decide what the "word of God" actually is. Then you claim that is your standard? Is it the bible with 66 or 80 books? Is it the KJV or the NIV? When you say "word of God", you imply a singular source of information and yet the truth is quite obvious. You don't have a "single" source of anything. You are selling a product that you cannot tell people what it actually is.
The way he feels isn’t how others feel sorry to those who hear that way
I wanted to see this live so much! Sadly, my truck ended up breaking down 10 minutes away. Very unfortunate.

Would like to add to the voting discussion: also consider the CHARACTER of the people running for any office. We don't want liars, blasphemers, and sharp tongues representing us. You will know them by their fruit, not what they say.
I like Cliff a lot, he is really letting the holy spirit talk through him, but one man dont know all the truths. I believe God has dispersed His wisdom on many. For example do I believe Hugh Ross; the christian astrophysicist, has found the true connection between The Book of Nature( laws of nature) is compatible 100% with The Book of Life ( the scriptures..) 🙏bless you all
The Great Day of the Lord
1 The word of the Lord which came to Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.
The Great Day of the Lord
2 “I will [a]utterly consume everything
From the face of the land,”
Says the Lord;
3 “I will consume man and beast;
I will consume the birds of the heavens,
The fish of the sea,
And the [b]stumbling blocks along with the wicked.
I will cut off man from the face of the [c]land,”
Says the Lord.
4 “I will stretch out My hand against Judah,
And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
[d]I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place,
The names of the idolatrous[e] priests with the pagan priests-
5 Those who worship the host of heaven on the housetops;
Those who worship and swear oaths by the Lord,
But who also swear by [f]Milcom;
6 Those who have turned back from following the Lord,
And have not sought the Lord, nor inquired of Him.”
7 Be silent in the presence of the Lord God;
For the day of the Lord is at hand,
For the Lord has prepared a sacrifice;
He has [g]invited His guests.
8 “And it shall be,
In the day of the Lord’s sacrifice,
That I will punish the princes and the king’s children,
And all such as are clothed with foreign apparel.
9 In the same day I will punish
All those who leap over the threshold,
Who fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit.
10 “And there shall be on that day,” says the Lord,
“The sound of a mournful cry from the Fish Gate,
A wailing from the Second Quarter,
And a loud crashing from the hills.
11 Wail, you inhabitants of [h]Maktesh!
For all the merchant people are cut down;
All those who handle money are cut off.
12 “And it shall come to pass at that time
That I will search Jerusalem with lamps,
And punish the men
Who are settled[i] in complacency,
Who say in their heart,
‘The Lord will not do good,
Nor will He do evil.’
13 Therefore their goods shall become booty,
And their houses a desolation;
They shall build houses, but not inhabit them;
They shall plant vineyards, but not drink their wine.”
14 The great day of the Lord is near;
It is near and hastens quickly.
The noise of the day of the Lord is bitter;
There the mighty men shall cry out.
15 That day is a day of wrath,
A day of trouble and distress,
A day of devastation and desolation,
A day of darkness and gloominess,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,
16 A day of trumpet and alarm
Against the fortified cities
And against the high towers.
17 “I will bring distress upon men,
And they shall walk like blind men,
Because they have sinned against the Lord;
Their blood shall be poured out like dust,
And their flesh like refuse.”
18 Neither their silver nor their gold
Shall be able to deliver them
In the day of the Lord’s wrath;
But the whole land shall be devoured
By the fire of His jealousy,
For He will make speedy riddance
Of all those who dwell in the land.

Cliff says I do not know, Almighty God says I DO know because I AM the one true God Himself! I would rather listen to God who knows all things than to a man who doesn't. No disrespect to Cliff but it's a no brainer for me. 😊
i don't hate islam i just respect the islamic religion however there are some things i disagree with islam for example, islam believes Jesus isn't God but to christians, Jesus is God and there is this debate between christianity and islam
We believe in a living God not a God who is mute and cannot communicate. Then why would we think that it must be impossible for God to speak to us in words that we can see and read and understand. He came to earth as John
And yet not a peep from any "God" you believe in.
I pray one day to meet Jesus who returned as Almighty God rather than a mere man who admits often "I do not know." I don't worship any man or earthly hero like I was fooled in the past. I worship the one true God Jesus Christ who has a new name as Revelation prophesied "the Almighty."
It's a statement of humility of things that he does not know about. I'm sure he wants to meet our Lord as much as you.
Almighty God's words says that giving alms to the poor or charity is not the focus of our duty to God nor is it God's will. God's will is to save mankind but charity distracts us away from our real duty which is to real Almighty God's words in order to know how we can cooperate with God in order to become approved, commended and qualified qualified by God to enter His kingdom. That is our whole duty in life and all the rest cannot and will not get us into heaven. If we miss this our whole life of faith in God will be bankrupt and we will miss heaven. 😮
There's only 1 answer for every question....Please listen...." I Am the Way the Truth and the Life " - Jesus Christ ✝️

As Jesus not John sorry my typo mistake. He came as a human and humans at that time saw, heard, talked with, walked with, ate with and lived alongside with God in human form. He promised to come back again and that has come true. Actually He doesn't just come back once but twice according to the Bible, first as a thief in the night or in other words in secret then publicly on clouds when every eye will see Him. He will be rejected by this generation because He comes back as an ordinary human or in other words a son of man or incarnated flesh of God the first time and the second time He comes back with power and great glory on clouds with all the millions of His angels. Then "all kindreds shall mourn" this is because they will realize that He is Almighty God or Jesus whom they rejected or "pierced." Almighty God IS Jesus! What a jaw dropper that will be!!!😮😢😮😢😮😂
I'm pretty sure other Christians would say a completely different thing than you just said. You people cannot even agree amongst yourselves about the basic "essential" doctrines, and you expect any serious person to believe you?
I prayed God You loved me so much that You CAME as Jesus! Sent Jesus means that God's Spirit sent Himself into a baby named Jesus conceived by the Holy Spirit born of a virgin Mary so it was a miraculous birth created by God in order that God Himself could enter our world similar to us except without sin to become our sacrifice in our stead to redeem us of our sins. We still sin today that is why He had to come back again to complete the work of judgment and salvation on us.
Sorry, but that makes no sense and contradicts the old testament.
Love this b reliant guy Clift knuckle ❤❤❤❤
Matthew 34 GOD comes with a sword 🗡 , u said GOD doesn’t come with a sword but a towel ? How so when scripture says GOD comes with a sword ? Please explain
Please let's not worship people. The only one that legendary is Jesus the king.
How do you see about Ethiopian orthodox chrstianity????? We believe it is the right chrstianity. It lives more than 3,000 years even before birth of Jeses christ with old testament
I was there. We didn't open our bibles... not once. I was hoping Cliffe was going to preach, not regurgitate his youtube videos.

I love Cliffe but we are and live in a country of the republic. The demonizing politicians tried changing the term from republic to democracy. It’s in the pledge. “And to the republic” but vote for the person that has the same values as you. Vote for common sense and the research that you have done yourself and that you weren’t told. Pray on it.
Contrary to popular belief, America is not, nor was it meant to be, a pure democracy. America 🇺🇸 is a republic. Nevertheless, more and more voices today are calling for America to become a direct democracy.
only Pseudo-intellectuals respond to his message by: "We're Republic not a Democracy"

Great presentation, but more of the same
I know how to say his last name now
Praying a prayer does not save you. You must believe, repent, confess, be baptized and live faithful. Acts 2:38. How was the Apostle Paul save. Read the book of Acts to learn Truth about the Salvation Plan. 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 you must obey the Gospel and be added to the LORD'S Church.
That is nice, however it is meaningless. Every Christian believes something different and it is such a spectrum, one end to the other could almost be called entirely different religions. You people don't even agree on salvation, or the basic teachings of Jesus Christ in the new testament. It's called "getting your story straight" and your religion fails more than any other one I have seen. Then we are expected to take anything else you say as the truth when you can't even establish what that is among yourselves? No thanks.
Even feels = “-“
I wish Cliffe would apply the same logic he did with Hinduism to the Trinity. The trinity isn’t Biblical
@@braydenweese1407 except that it is. the term doesn’t need to be explicitly stated in the Bible. we gave it a term for us to better understand it. it is however Biblical in concept because it asserts that God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one in 3 persons, rather than being completely separate from one another.
John 1:1-5
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
From the very mouth of Jesus in John 10:29-30
“My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.””
I used to love listening to Cliff until I found out that he's a work salvationist therefore, he is a heretic and you guys need to stay as far away from him as possible
Im sure your sad Cliff about being there and be pay to talk about ours Lord

Unfortunately Cliff does not have a proper understanding of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints… if you want to cherry pick minute details of the History of Joseph smith go right ahead, but please do not discredit the rest of the restored truth. I promise you the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is in this Church and once you seek for a further understanding, the Spirit will confirm upon you the validity of what we preach. Christs Church is opened to all. We welcome everyone. There is so much knowledge, understanding, and blessings in this church.
William Shakespeare once said “knowledge is the wing where with we fly to heaven”
I love you all. Peace
Ed and Cliff... you dudes are still stuck in the 1980s. The only one's interested in "evangelical apologetics" is already-convinced evangelicals.Have you every met anyone who was "converted" by "biblicistic apologetics?" Uhhhh... noooo. Or, rarely. You know who ends up loving apologetics? People "after" the come to some sort of faith. Ask Josh McDowell, ask even Cliff Knechtle, or Josh's son, Sean, hell, ask the "apologetics department at Talbot Seminary, "who here was converted to evangelicalism thru "apologetics?" Few... if any. And the stories, illustrations, the biblicistic gymnastics Cliff is using... are the same dumb circular answers from 1982. Hell, Cliff isn't even dressing any different. He still looks like he shops from the same 1984 Lands End catalog. Remember, knowledge is not intellect. It's just knowing stuff. It's not actual deep theology. It's just updated Great-Awakening-until-2024-American-Evangelical-ChristianISM. It's time to evolve and give a better message about Christ's LOVE.
To answer your question, the main point of evangelical apologetics isn’t to convert someone to Christianity. It’s to have an open and honest conversation about faith and to allow the person to open themselves up to the truth so that in time once that seed is planted that they seek truth and see for themselves what Christ is all about and by God’s grace will turn to Christ. No man can convert someone, only Jesus Christ thru the Holy Spirit can change someone’s heart. Apologetics is like a how-to guide on spreading our faith like the Bible calls us to do. Hope that helped, God bless🙏🏼
I know several people converted by apologetics! These type of argument’s and thought processes were super useful for me in college and conversations with others in general. Being able to argue for the faith is a useful tool for spreading the message of Christs love!
The etrnal truth of the Gospel doesn't 'evolve'.
"...Jesus answered them, “You are wrong because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God."-
The Holy Bible - Book of Matthew - Chapter 22 - Verse 29
Dang bro you're a certified hater. I'll have to say there are millions of views on all of Cliffe's content that disagree with you. People, especially young people, are incredibly engaged on this topic. Get out of your little echo chamber and go lead someone to Christ. These are the questions people are asking
What’s the better way?
two amazing communicators!!
