The First Outsider to Become a Christian was LGBTQIA !
I've never got over that I am not under the bondage of sin anymore. I'm still amazed that Jesus would pay a debt I could not afford. I never got past that I'm free at last from the sin that made me a slave. I still feel as much as when he first touched me. Oh, yes! I'm still amazed! I'm amazed to know how far God would go to set a lost man free. I'm still in awe that he gave it all for an ole sinner like me. I never got over that this king would shoulder my sin with all its disgrace. Yes, Calvary's hill still gives me a thrill. Oh, yes! I'm still amazed! Amazed this stranger would accept a manger in trade for a kingly throne. I'm still at a loss why he'd take the cross instead of the street of pure gold. He's the only king who gave everything in exchange for a cold dark grave. I still love to ponder this God given wonder. Oh, yes! I'm still amazed!

If you are Christian, and believe in the Bible (you apparently dont consider Bible as true) you should know Jesus does support and love all people, but He does not support sin. Jesus saved the prostitute woman, not because prostitution was okay or good, but because He cared about all people's souls and wanted to save them from sin! This doesnt mean that this sin should be normalized. Please dont invent your own new theology.
God asked you to stone them. Are you murdering gay people with rocks? If you aren’t then you don’t believe in the bible either.
Who is this fake person calling himself 'Reverend'. Using titles to authentic his fake gospel. Jesus warned us about people like him. A wolf in sheep's clothing. There's a special place for the likes of him.
Romans 1:21-27 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles. 24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator-who is forever praised. Amen. 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. your religion is a lie
God breathed the universe into existence but he doubts that He could pull off a virgin birth? I don’t get how one can reconcile those two thoughts in their mind. Take care creator of this video.
Gee....I wonder if God could create miracles by using His humans over a period of human earth time?
This sort of person means I must amend anything I say about the religious right. It is easy to forget those who actually walk the intended purpose of much of scripture. I'm sorry if I forgot about them.
Can I just say I'm really happy Christians like you exist, I'm a trans woman and currently it's a really scary time especially with how any seemingly alright people can turn out to be insanely hateful towards people like me. That can definitely be said for many people who call themselves Christians I myself am no longer one but it makes me happy some people don't think I will be eternally punished for living a life that is most honest to who I know I am. Thankyou!
btw hell isn’t even a biblical term - you aren’t going there just for aligning yourself with what God must have wanted you to be all along. You deserve comfort, peace and to be persecuted the same as any other. I bet you are beautiful inside and out and you don’t deserve the needless fear mongering they try to propagate 🏳️⚧️🫶🏻⚧️
If the original Hebrew says young woman and as St. Gerome argues, it is indicated that this more than just a woman who has not engaged in intercourse but a cloistered woman which necessitates virginity. Further, if the prophecy is that a young woman would give birth to the messiah, a young virgin giving birth would also meet that requirement. It is also highly likely that the authors Matthew and John were acquainted with Mary herself or those close to her. After witnessing the miracles of Christ, they would not be shocked to learn from Mary that she was a virgin when she gave birth. In fact they probably already knew that during his life. But beyond these arguments we must always remember, "With man these things are impossible, but with God all things are possible."
This guy is going with the Satanic corruptions of the bible that came out of Alexandrian Egypt instead of the God Preserved word that came out of Antioch. This is total Catholic garbage!
This guy, pretending to be a Christian.
If Christ was not born of a virgin then he was not God. If he was not God he got exactly what he deserved. He received worship (Matthew 2:2,8,11; 8:2) Notice what Jesus said to Satan (Matthew 4:10) If He was not born a virgin he was not God and a complete hypocrite! He called himself I AM (John 8:58) not only that if Christ was not born of a virgin there will be NO king ever to rule in Israel again (Jeremiah 22:28-30). God cursed the seed of the Kings so no one born of the seed of Coniah can sit on the throne. Mr. Caleb Lines, you err not knowing the scriptures or the power of God (Matthew 22:29). Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Tim 2:15)
thank you for spreading the word!

Virgin births are a biological impossibility…. And you think this disproves anything? lol.

There is nothing Christian about this guy. the deity of Christ is a Doctrine that is non-negotiable. Unfortunately you are a heretic and should be called out as such. Have a nice day.
He's right though about the book of isaiah. It doesn't say anything about a Virgin birth. Also if you read on into chapter 8 of Isaiah the child is actually born that is prophesied about in Chapter 7
It's dismaying how many people react to violations of individual rights of honest, peaceful people by seeking to violate the individual rights of honest, peaceful people.

"“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;” 2 Timothy 4:3 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." - John 3:3 "And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin." 1 John 3:5 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” - John 3:16-18 "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." - Acts 4:12
This person is a false teacher. He denies that Jesus Christ is the only way, he says the Bible is purely symbolic, he says Jesus is not God in the flesh, that Jesus didn't die for anyone's sins...need I continue? Absolutely everything I've heard come out of this man's mouth has been unbiblical and heretical. Test everything this person say with what the Bible says. But if you agree with him, then absolutely more power to you I suppose. Warning though, "My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation." James 3:1 Masters = didaskalos = "teachers" If you teach others such blasphemous, heretical nonsense, then the true God (not the idol you created and call "god") WILL judge you. Nothing coming out of your mouth has even remotely resembled Christianity, but rather, the coming antichrist religion that will encompass all religions except for biblical Christianity. You need to repent of this... (1) The biblical gospel - Admit to Jesus Christ (God the Son, fully God & fully man) that you're a sinner. Accept His free gift of salvation & total forgiveness of your sin debt through His sacrifice on the cross. (2) - Believe on Jesus as your Lord and all-sufficient Savior. Believe He died on the cross for you and rose from the dead. (3) - Come to Jesus Christ just as you are, none of us are perfect! The Holy Spirit will then seal AND sanctify you once you have spiritually been born again. You will forever be saved and will spend eternity with God. Our works cannot save us, that includes any religious acts such as attending mass, getting baptized, taking communion, praying, giving, helping poor, etc. Only Jesus can pay a person's sin debt, because the Jesus of the Bible is the only one qualified. He is fully man and fully God, He's the only acceptable sacrifice to pay the penalty we individually have occurred through our sins. Go to Him alone, not religion. If you sincerely forsake your ego and truly believe on the biblical Jesus, sincerely ask Him for forgiveness of your sin debt (I highly doubt you even believe there's such a thing as sin though) and choose to be born again, then that would be amazing. I highly doubt you'll ever do that because you're so full of blasphemy, pride and arrogance, but God can work miracles -- look at Saul. So I hope you turn from evil and humbly turn to the true God.
Interesting how you, being a "Rev Dr" didn't quote even ONE VERSE from the Bible to support these false teachings of yours. Let me guess, you deny the inerrancy and infallibility of scripture also? You must. So arrogant and sooooooo very, very incorrect about absolutely everything.
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. 15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. 18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. John 1:1-18 Read it, it says Jesus is the Word made flesh, that He is the only begotten Son of God (literal Son!) and only those who receive Him will be adopted into God's kingdom as children. "And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." 1 John 4:3 "22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also." 1 John 2:22-23 You're denying that Jesus is the only begotten Son of God, that He died for the sins of all humanity, that He is the only way to be saved. Why would you even think about saying you're a Christian? You'd have to contort the entire Bible to conform to your twisted theology. God will judge you for perverting His word, and for teaching people a false gospel. You'd be better off quitting your profession as a priest and selling insurance than to continue to lead people astray and build-up God's wrath. Shame on you.
This man is a liar. He's preaching a false gospel, which is absolutely NOT Christianity. Avoid his teachings at ALL costs. God's plan of salvation: (1) The biblical gospel - Admit to Jesus Christ (God the Son, fully God & fully man) that you're a sinner. Accept His free gift of salvation & total forgiveness of your sin debt through His sacrifice on the cross. (2) - Believe on Jesus as your Lord and all-sufficient Savior. Believe He died on the cross for you and rose from the dead. (3) - Come to Jesus Christ just as you are, none of us are perfect!

This videos stupid ahh he!! This dude doesn’t know sh**
Great video. I continue to believe in all of those concepts, but I agree that those aren’t necessary for being a Christian. I do think you need to believe in SOME higher standard for Jesus than for other humans though - after all, if Jesus was just a mere human on the exact same level as anyone else, why follow specifically His teachings? So maybe the minimum level is something like “foremost among God’s prophets” or something, idk.
I think you should follow his teachings because they are brilliant and will almost certainly improve anyone's lives when put into practice.
@@iilugs I mean fair enough
Wait what? I'm confused. If it was never supposed to be that Jesus is the literal son of God, then... Why did he not have a literal biological father? Then having God say that it's because that's His son? Considering how much space it takes up, how many times it's referenced in the Bible, and how few other people afterwards use a child-parent description without some sort of caveat or qualifier (son IN God, heavenly father, etc), I thought the safe assumption was that it's supposed to be that God is the actual father. The part about the two main rules I'm totally on board with. That makes perfect sense and is basically literally what it says the requirement to being a good Christian is. It's the "not actually a son of God" part I'm confused by.
Read a bit more of the bible.

This is why the bible says , “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves” (Matthew 7:15). Sir, you are a wolve in a sheep closing. You don't have to twist the scripture to fit your narrative and perception. HAVING CHILDRENS OUT OF WEDLOCK IS NOT GOOD FOR ANYONE, THIS IS COMING FROM A CHILD WHO WAS BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK AND HAVE A FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE ON ALL OF THE SIDE EFFECTS THAT IT BROUGHT. Wait for your daughters to have a child out of wedlock and be thrown out with no respect or anything whatsoever. Talk to your woman directly, if you want her to buy your bs instead of creating a whole video to brainwash people
Yep, there's a difference all right!
@@j.b.macadam6516 Actually they're not different... The Marxist invent the differences... They either redefine words... Or makeup new ones.

When every one of them is a full-blown globalist 🤣😭😎
Kid sounded like a bloody commie lover!
Bear in mind, the only reason this country has been shown the mercy that it has... It's because churches hadn't devolved into Marxist indoctrination camps. (Well of course some of them had been for a long time... But they were much more subtle) What use, as a nation, are we to God, anymore?
Strictly speaking, the only durable difference is in the Latin roots- patria for the 'fatherland'/country/place, natio for the nation/tribe/people. So place versus people. That's it. That distinction is not meaningless- people have approached their loyalties with either as the focus or every possible nuanced blend between them and still do today. Both can serve as the basis for all the superstructure of laws, customs, institutions, procedures, rules and identities built on top. All the other distinctions are exceptionally artificial- in just the past 200 years and in just the English speaking countries, the terms patriotism and nationalism have often been used as synonyms. When not so used, which one was good or bad kept switching around. The distinctions we hear now are as artificial as any, given that history. I'd be prepared to accept an undeniably just as artificial distinction, though, in which patriotism is loyalty to one's country [nuances and caveats acceptable] and nationalism is placing one's country's worth and interests ahead of those of other countries [also caveats may be admitted]. Both are entirely acceptable, just, and fit duties of the citizen.
Sure, and gay means happy, fat means awesome, and bad means good.
