And the government shall be upon his shoulder and he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 53:5 "But he was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement that brought us peace was upon him and by his stripes we are healed" Isaiah 7:14 "The virgin shall bring forth a child and he shall be called Emmanuel, which means "God with us" This was found on the dead sea scrolls and carbon dated back to the 2nd century BC.

Turkey finances Azerbaijan's attack on Armenia but cries a river when Isreal retaliated against Hamas. If Armenia had retaliated against Azerbaijan, turkey would have made it a big issue
It is funny to see ignorance and silliness to such a degree on RUclips. First of all, Azerbaijan did not attack Armenia. Azerbaijan liberated the occupied land of Karabag by Armenia after the collapse of Soviets, taking advantage of the weak status of Azerbaijan ta the time. Armenians committed despicable atrocities during their occupation, such as the messacre of Hodjali. As expected, nobody said anything about it as the victims were muslim Azeris. Karabag stayed under occupation for more than 30 years, despite numerous discussions and negotiations. Eventually, the 2nd Karabag conflict started and this time Azerbaijan was able to liberate most of Karabag is just 44 days, as they were not the weak state anymore as in the late 80'ies. Azerbaijan never targeted any civilians nor any areas outside of Karabag, despite Armenians launching Russian supplied ballistic missiles inside Azeri territories, killing many civilians in the process. This does not compare to Hamas attack on Israel, as they also attacked civilians. Also Israel's response was not proportional and they used it as an excuse to wipe out all population of Gaza.

Unfortunately what most people aren't aware of is that, according to the UN, Turkey committed the most genocides in the 20th century, exterminating 3 million Christians from Anatolia and Eastern Thrace just during the Greco-Armenian genocide in the decade between 1913-1922.
Although Muslims were humane in their strongest times, they gave Christians a place in the government during a time when even Christians treated Christians badly, but they had to defend themselves because they were exposed to great massacres by Christians.

maybe in start in of the 20th century, before that ottoman empire was multinational and multireligious empire...nobody was persecuted in scale you talk about...so what about reqonquista in Spain?! everbody flee or forcebly converted to christianity

@@ameerz80so the Armenian genocide didn’t happen huh? Besides Reconquista was literally justified because the Spaniards just took their land back. And no Muslim Arabs weren’t forcefully converted, they were ales to leave Spain into their desert but the ones who refused were converted. And Jews were converted because they helped the Muslims conquer Spain back then, the Jews were responsible for the quick Somalia expansion, they opened the doors for the Muslims into Spanish cities and the censured after that they oppressed the Christian Spaniards.

Matthew 21:1-11 wrote that Christ sent two disciples to the village to bring a donkey and a colt, and he mounted on them. 🔷️As for the other three Evangelists, they said to bring the colt, so they brought it and rode on it. Mark 11:1-11, Luke 19:28-40, John 12:12-19 It is learned from Matthew 27:1-10 that Judas Iscariot, the traitor, hanged himself by committing suicide. As for the Book of Acts 1:18-19, it is learned that he died from his entrails spilling out of his stomach on his land, which he bought with the money of betrayal. It is learned from Matthew that the chief priests bought the field for thirty pieces of silver, which Judas returned after he regretted. While the Acts of the Apostles mentions Judas buying the field for thirty silver.
2. And the chief priests and scribes were seeking how to kill him. Because they feared the people 39. And he went out and went as usual to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him. 41. He separated from them about a stone's throw, knelt down and prayed 42. Saying, O my Father, if you are willing, take this cup away from me. But not my will, but yours, be done. 43. An angel appeared to him from heaven, strengthening him. 44. And while he was in agony, he prayed most earnestly, and his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground. 45. Then he rose from prayer and came to his disciples and found them asleep for grief. (Luke, 22) You convince yourselves with illogical words: Jesus is a prophet to the children of Israel, and you say that he is the Lord. You have forgotten who created you from a sperm into the wombs of your mothers into the world and will bring you out to the grave, and you say that the son of Mary is the Lord.
@@mahmoudsbeih8614 Unlike for muslims, the Bible does not hold the same place in Christianity that the Quran does in Islam, it is not the literal Word of God nor is it the revelation of God, it is about the revelation of God but the revelation itself is the teaching of the Church, it was the Church that compiled the Bible and the Church predates it by 3 centuries. Neither do Christians base their faith off of verses in a book, that is something muslims do. The Christian faith is founded on the Revelation given to the Apostles and handed down in an unbroken chain to the Patriarchs and Bishops of the Church.
Why did the Bible not mention anything about the life of Christ and his mother from 12 to 30, meaning 18 years? Their lives are ambiguous. How old was Mary when she died and where was she buried?
Due to current Turkish government not protecting its borders - everyone should protect themselves. We have so many undocumented individuals migrated from middle east 1:48
The messiah 3. And this is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. 4. I glorified you on earth. The work you gave me to do I have finished. (John, 17) Who is the true God? What is the meaning of “I sent him”? The word “send me” was repeated 35 times.
It is a sad fact that in most Muslim-majority countries, people of other religions are forced to live with discrimination and hatred. As a Bangladeshi Hindu I have experienced this. May mutual knowledge and sympathy be awakened among people.
It is a fair question....there isn't outright persecution of Christians in Israel but I do know that Messianic Jews (Jewish believers in Jesus) do face a fair bit of hostility from the Ultra religious Jewish community...
God almighty says *Jesus, son of Mary, was not but a messenger; [other] messengers have passed on before him. And his mother was a supporter of truth. They both used to eat food. Look how We make clear to them the signs; then look how they are deluded.* Qur’an 5:75 God doesn't required to eat to drink to sleep. God is Independent of All. Allah is our God. And Jesus Christ instructed to believe in Allah and worship him alone. Also he told us to believe in Last and Final Messanger Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). Jesus declared, *“I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture and to be a prophet.* (Quran)
First of all, there is nothing for them to fear in Turkiye, secondly Jesus cannot protect anyone as he couldn't do anything to protect himself from being killed on a cross , according to your belief.
@@istanbullubenim5543my auntie who lives in istanbul literally has friends who are christian who have to hide their christians names and crosses from public, yeah so free. Im not religious so im not being bias here.
Well done, thanks. My brief stays in Istanbul and in Antalya were exhilarating. Just to walk the streets in my monastic habit and be Christ's light. I really had to hunt to find Christians. I found the last street of Orthodox families living downtown. A compound of eight little houses, if I remember right. We sat together and ate coated peanuts. And I think there were three of us plus the priests for the Divine Liturgy at the Patriarchate. -Fr. Anthony of the Transfiguration, CB
You can’t judge a country just by an act of a terrorist. Christians have always and still are safe in Turkey, plus the Turkey is not a religious country and you can hardly tell who is who.
It is true many Turkish citizens are not very religious....the Father of modern Turkey, Kemal Ataturk, himself was very secular and his influence is still very strong in the Turkish nation
Friends, I am an atheist Turk. And I observe that you are being too emotional on some issues and exaggerating the issue of "being a Christian in Turkey". First of all, 90% of Turks are not Muslims. Even the social studies of the past year have revealed that there are at least 15% of people in this country who "do not believe in any religion", and except for the minority of radical Islamists, the understanding of religion of Turks is secular. They just pray from time to time. Yes, as I said, some families are radical Islamic and if you are a member of that family, being a Christian will cause a reaction. But my mother is a Muslim who prays 5 times a day and knows that I am an atheist and this does not pose a problem. No one will pressure you regarding religion except the radical Islamists who are a minority in this country. We have been governed by a political Islamist government for 20 years, so this causes misunderstandings. I am an atheist and no one can oppress me because the important thing in this country is national culture. Religion is secondary. Priests say they cannot spread Christianity. In Turkey, we also criticize missionaries who try to spread Islam. We do not allow them either. Because, as I said, the principle of secularism prevails in this country. Putting religious pressure on someone is not something that Turkish people like. As long as you don't harm anyone, you can practice Christianity comfortably in Turkey. (However, Christianity is a little more difficult than Islam in Turkey)
@@Fromtitwarthe conservatives are mostly giving their votes to the governing party and this is how they are selected. More than half of the population in Turkey are conservatives.Being a radical and being a conservative are different things. Most of the conservatives in Turkey are sensitive about İslam, traditions and national values but also believe in secularism.
That is very interesting....you are saying that roughly 90 percent of Turks are not muslims....I know because of the great Kemal Ataturk, that secularism has deep roots in your safety and radical islam has thankfully not played a huge part....but I am concerned about your current hardline Islamic regime....hopefully Erodogan will be out soon and Ataturkism will once again be in power.
Hello also Turk, simply no. You confuse political ideology with faith. The majority (90%) is muslim. Doesn't matter, if they know absolutely nothing about their religion or pray only occasionaly, they still see themselves as muslim and thats what makes the muslim. K bye

Turkey finances Azerbaijan's attack on Armenia but cries a river when Isreal retaliated against Hamas. If Armenia had retaliated against Azerbaijan, turkey would have made it a big issue
Because its has nothing to do with religion and more with political gains
It is funny to see ignorance and silliness to such a degree on RUclips.
First of all, Azerbaijan did not attack Armenia.
Azerbaijan liberated the occupied land of Karabag by Armenia after the collapse of Soviets, taking advantage of the weak status of Azerbaijan ta the time.
Armenians committed despicable atrocities during their occupation, such as the messacre of Hodjali.
As expected, nobody said anything about it as the victims were muslim Azeris.
Karabag stayed under occupation for more than 30 years, despite numerous discussions and negotiations.
Eventually, the 2nd Karabag conflict started and this time Azerbaijan was able to liberate most of Karabag is just 44 days,
as they were not the weak state anymore as in the late 80'ies.
Azerbaijan never targeted any civilians nor any areas outside of Karabag, despite Armenians launching Russian supplied
ballistic missiles inside Azeri territories, killing many civilians in the process.
This does not compare to Hamas attack on Israel, as they also attacked civilians.
Also Israel's response was not proportional and they used it as an excuse to wipe out all population of Gaza.
@@lonelywolf1480 that's the dumbest thing I've heard. Azerbaijan killed many and occupied it. You are probably Turkish or Muslim so you'll try to rationalize the injustice done in Armenia by the Turks and Azerbaijanis. Read my comment again.

I'm deist Turkish and it's not a problem in Turkiye.
God bless the Christian family in Anatolia. 🙏🏼
Due to current Turkish government not protecting its borders - everyone should protect themselves. We have so many undocumented individuals migrated from middle east 1:48
May God Bless you and keep you! In the name of Yeshua
The messiah 3. And this is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
4. I glorified you on earth. The work you gave me to do I have finished.
(John, 17) Who is the true God? What is the meaning of “I sent him”? The word “send me” was repeated 35 times.
türkler bütün dinlere saygılıdır atalarından gelir bu saygı
It is a sad fact that in most Muslim-majority countries, people of other religions are forced to live with discrimination and hatred. As a Bangladeshi Hindu I have experienced this. May mutual knowledge and sympathy be awakened among people.
Is it safe to be Christian in Israel? please make a video about this topic.
They dont dare to show the truth😂
Yes it is very safe because it is a modern democracy.
@@michelleburke5674 If it is a modern democracy i can't think the otherwise. Nope i'll pass.
It is a fair question....there isn't outright persecution of Christians in Israel but I do know that Messianic Jews (Jewish believers in Jesus) do face a fair bit of hostility from the Ultra religious Jewish community...
We talk.about turkey little hypocrite
God Bless Christians. God Bless Turkey.
Let us pray for our Christian brothers and sisters ❤️! May the Lord turn Turkey into a Christian nation. Amen!
God almighty says
*Jesus, son of Mary, was not but a messenger; [other] messengers have passed on before him. And his mother was a supporter of truth. They both used to eat food. Look how We make clear to them the signs; then look how they are deluded.*
Qur’an 5:75
God doesn't required to eat to drink to sleep. God is Independent of All.
Allah is our God. And Jesus Christ instructed to believe in Allah and worship him alone. Also he told us to believe in Last and Final Messanger Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ).
Jesus declared,
*“I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture and to be a prophet.*
(Quran)
"You meant to do me harm, but God meant it for good - so that it would come about as it is today, with many people’s lives being saved."
Genesis 50:20
Muezzin's call to prayer gives me the shivers
Lord I pray for the Christians in Turkey.
Jesus protect them.
Amen
First of all, there is nothing for them to fear in Turkiye, secondly Jesus cannot protect anyone as he couldn't do anything to protect himself from being killed on a cross , according to your belief.
@@istanbullubenim5543my auntie who lives in istanbul literally has friends who are christian who have to hide their christians names and crosses from public, yeah so free. Im not religious so im not being bias here.

@@alpcaglayan1643 Where does it say in the Bible?
This is done by Pakistani/Syrian immigrants. The majority of Turkish people are secular and peaceful, believe me.
Make Turkey Orthodox again. May Constantinople be restored.
Make America an Islamic country.

Those of Gökturk barbarians can come back to their ancestor with Tengerism's cult.
Keep dreaming.

Make Spain Islam again...
My brothers lets us not become enemies of each other because of our differences.May the good always be protected❤
Thank you for this exposition
Well done, thanks. My brief stays in Istanbul and in Antalya were exhilarating. Just to walk the streets in my monastic habit and be Christ's light. I really had to hunt to find Christians. I found the last street of Orthodox families living downtown. A compound of eight little houses, if I remember right. We sat together and ate coated peanuts. And I think there were three of us plus the priests for the Divine Liturgy at the Patriarchate. -Fr. Anthony of the Transfiguration, CB
You can’t judge a country just by an act of a terrorist. Christians have always and still are safe in Turkey, plus the Turkey is not a religious country and you can hardly tell who is who.
We can blame the country. Turkish government should impose police security on churches
It is true many Turkish citizens are not very religious....the Father of modern Turkey, Kemal Ataturk, himself was very secular and his influence is still very strong in the Turkish nation
Then give the christians seat in goverment. Let us be represented.
My parents are moslems but I am a believer of the simulation theory.
@@tiyes94 What is the simulation theory?
Friends, I am an atheist Turk. And I observe that you are being too emotional on some issues and exaggerating the issue of "being a Christian in Turkey". First of all, 90% of Turks are not Muslims. Even the social studies of the past year have revealed that there are at least 15% of people in this country who "do not believe in any religion", and except for the minority of radical Islamists, the understanding of religion of Turks is secular. They just pray from time to time. Yes, as I said, some families are radical Islamic and if you are a member of that family, being a Christian will cause a reaction. But my mother is a Muslim who prays 5 times a day and knows that I am an atheist and this does not pose a problem. No one will pressure you regarding religion except the radical Islamists who are a minority in this country. We have been governed by a political Islamist government for 20 years, so this causes misunderstandings. I am an atheist and no one can oppress me because the important thing in this country is national culture. Religion is secondary. Priests say they cannot spread Christianity. In Turkey, we also criticize missionaries who try to spread Islam. We do not allow them either. Because, as I said, the principle of secularism prevails in this country. Putting religious pressure on someone is not something that Turkish people like. As long as you don't harm anyone, you can practice Christianity comfortably in Turkey. (However, Christianity is a little more difficult than Islam in Turkey)
If the radicals are the minorities, why turks keep electing an Islamist party ?
I don’t get it .
@@Fromtitwarthe conservatives are mostly giving their votes to the governing party and this is how they are selected. More than half of the population in Turkey are conservatives.Being a radical and being a conservative are different things. Most of the conservatives in Turkey are sensitive about İslam, traditions and national values but also believe in secularism.
That is very interesting....you are saying that roughly 90 percent of Turks are not muslims....I know because of the great Kemal Ataturk, that secularism has deep roots in your safety and radical islam has thankfully not played a huge part....but I am concerned about your current hardline Islamic regime....hopefully Erodogan will be out soon and Ataturkism will once again be in power.
Hello also Turk, simply no. You confuse political ideology with faith.
The majority (90%) is muslim. Doesn't matter, if they know absolutely nothing about their religion or pray only occasionaly, they still see themselves as muslim and thats what makes the muslim. K bye
Please follow up with a video , ' Is it safe to be a Christian in Israel and Palestine ? ' . With plenty of depth , details , and specifics about life and worship as a Christian in Israel and Palestine .
I’m Nigerian Christian, my prayers are with you
Wow that was a great Story about the Situation now in Turkey. It is wonderful to see how the light 🕯️ in Turkey is shining
50-55% of Turkeys younger population is currently Ateist this is true facts and growing Turkey is a modern Secular country Ataturk founded Turkey
Düşmanlık yapmıyorsa Türkiye'de dini, milleti farketmez herkese saygı duyulur. Yabancılara yardımseverlik, misafirperverlik vardır.
Yabancı ne demek? Türk Hristiyan olunca birden yabancı mı oluyor?
Boş yapma gördüğün üzere kimse düşmanlık yapmıyor ibadet eden birinin ibadethanesine girip ateş açılıyor.
Why are you saying "foreigners " for Christians? It is the muslims who are the foreigners. Learn your history
Is this question a joke? I am from Antakya (Antioch) which has a ton of diversity. Turks, Arabs, Armenians; Sunnis, Alawites, Christians and even Jews. We all live peacefully together. What kind of Americanish question is this?
You didn’t watch the video.
God bless people of turky and all the childrens of Turkey let mother Mary of Fatima look after this city❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 2:44
I'm a Turkish atheist and well, I'm definitely not alone, but still I need to be careful to who I talk sometimes when it comes to such topics.
Aww poor guy.
