As a person who have dealt with self harm and suic*dal idealizations, this song, I can relate to the lyrics. This was my childhood song and now it has more meaning than ever before as a young adult.
K. The second reason that i posted the comment there. Was so people could see how much evil there is in the world. EVEN ON RUclips. Those people criticizing me. I wanted them to look back at their own comments and say " Wow!. That was an evil thing i just said". and i want them to realize that GOD IS REAL. CHRISTIANS ARE GOING THROUGH A VERY HARD TIME RIGHT NOW. Look at all the beheadings, the raping, the murdering of us CHRISTIANS. We have the right to tell people the truth. That GOD CREATED US. And that JESUS IS KING
Jonathan Keller I have multiple Atheist friends so I have their Hindsight on why. Its a lot of stuff that I don't feel like typing down but you get the idea. I've also learned that preaching to someone who doesn't care is a bad idea. Also on a side note did you listen to this song?
I found this which Ryan Clark, the vocalist, said about the song,... "In the few months before I began writing lyrics for this record, I was hearing a lot about cutting. This, for those who don’t know is the act of inflicting pain on one’s self (often times by cutting with a knife, or burning with a lighter) in order to take their mind off of some emotional pain. Although I don’t personally know anyone who has dealt with this (that I am aware of), the idea of writing a song about it was really placed on my heart. I guess I thought I might be able to speak to some young people about this particular issue. I couldn’t help but draw a connection between someone wanting to inflict pain on themselves and Jesus having been sacrificed so that we wouldn’t need to bare the guilt of sin. My thought was that Christ had already been cut for us, so there was no need for us to inflict pain on ourselves. That work has been paid for in full by the cross. The chorus lyrics hope that this person (represented by a young female in the song) might find this truth in her darkest of times, when she realizes that the emptiness she hoped would leave after inflicting this pain, still remains. Her flesh, broken, is emptiness. Christ’s flesh broken is mercy for us. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross. -Colossians 1: 19, 20"
Amen. The one who died with thorns on his head, he suffered so that we could be whole, he bled so that we could be healed. He died so that we could be forgiven. Praises to the Lord Jesus Christ.

That's the truth. Why don't people just accept That God created us.
