The Atheist Delusion Movie (2016) HD
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2016
- Having to prove the existence of God to an atheist is like having to prove the existence of the sun, at noon on a clear day. Yet millions are embracing the foolishness of atheism. “The Atheist Delusion” pulls back the curtain and reveals what is going on in the mind of those who deny the obvious. It introduces you to a number of atheists who you will follow as they go where the evidence leads, find a roadblock, and enter into a place of honesty that is rarely seen on film.
From Living Waters, creators of the award-winning TV program “The Way of the Master” and the hit movies “180” and “Evolution vs. God,” comes the powerful film “The Atheist Delusion.” Executive produced by TV co-host and best-selling author Ray Comfort (Hell’s Best Kept Secret, Scientific Facts in the Bible).

Ray, this was very encouraging and moving for a fellow believer. Though you and I don't always agree on every single thing. I praise God for your witness and example and you and your ministry are daily in my prayers.
Thank God for your guy’s wonderful ministry! I was told about being born again and that was the seed that led me to wanting to know more about God and the Bible and what it means to be born again!
I WAS an atheist, now a Christian, Praise God
Welcome to the family of God! May His name be praised forever and ever because He is Holy, Holy, Holy!
@Quint what do you mean?
@@kevinrtres Praise God
Wow! Praise God brother!
@@kevinrtresOur Triune God is THE only 3 entity Singular Being! THE only Living God. He is THE God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
He is Holy, Holy, Holy.
He is LOVE. His thoughts are above our thoughts.
One Day LORD Jesus Christ will give us 'full knowledge'... We will use our entire minds, not just the 10% we use now.
We will be allowed to use our full senses... Sight, Feelings, Smell, hearing. Glory be unto God. Hark the Angels...a praise song after we are Raptured!
Maranatha 🙏💖
The Rapture/Harpanzo.
Will be taken by Lord Jesus Christ in the clouds very Soon to our true Home in Heaven!
I was raised lukewarm Christian (barely that), converted atheist, then soon started doing witchcraft (age 13-17). Convinced my family to go into that life with me. And now I’m 21, Jesus has become my life and now it’s part of my mission to turn my family back to God. *All glory to GOD*
Praise the Lord! I pray you are able to bring your family into the fold. Stay strong, pray fervently and without ceasing. May the Lord bless you!
Prayers for your sweet family 💕🙏
@@Doorknobz I hope
@@Doorknobz 80% of christian testimonies also sound fake too me..... but apparently they are serious.
lmao which craft lmao
This made me get on my knees and repent before the Lord because of his everlasting mercy and love. Forgive me Father for my sins. Wash me in the blood of Jesus and cleanse me. Give me a heart of flesh and take out this heart of stone, in Jesus name. Amen.
JesusChrustIsKing - And I screen shot your prayer to look at and say when I need to. Thank you, sister. Blessings.
Thank you for this prayer🙏🏽
I was agnostic and 10 months ago I was born again after searching for God and praying and looking for him and I am terrified for the overwhelming amount of people who are lost
Praise God!
The aim is not to win an argument, but to reveal the truth in love
This atheist does (I mean me lol)
@@richardgould3615 winning an argument is good but for a Christian if I win an argument but you still don't believe then I wasted my time
@@josephdoctor6423 But then again when it comes to evolution vs creation or god vs no god, you simply can not win an argument. Since arguments are based on logic and proof. And religion and creationism both aren't.
@@MrKakatoe that's your opinion and I disagree with it
@@josephdoctor6423 You can not disagree with science unless you have better scientific proof.
I've never been good at evangelizing. This man is amazing. The people don't seem to be threatened by him or his witness. Such a gift. I've learned some things too. Thank you Mr. Comfort.
Yeah Ray certainly has a way about him.
Yeah, he is good at manipulating people.
He really isn't though. Ray using fear tactics and social engineering techniques on typically guileless students.
Not only that but he blatantly misrepresents Non-believers and Catholics. Comfort is nothing more than a pushy used car salesman and his tactics are coercive.
Practice talking to ppl or at least give them a gospel tract.
@roscowbrown3937 but he did provide proof how atheism is illogical.
That older gentleman started out very hostile...I could see a massive softening of his heart at the end, I sure hope he repented and got saved...That for me was the highlight of this
People are afraid to believe in a creator with laws to live by.
@@margiehankins-jerde6094 Maybe some people just simply don't think it makes any sense. The suggestion that you have the truth, and the rest of the people that don't believe your truth are just afraid for it is quite ignorant.
@@nijebo1and to not question and see truth and admit when someone else might have the answer we all are looking for, is arrogance. Pride got Satan kicked out of heaven. And it runs rampant in us humans.
@@madys416 Margie made the suggestion that it is because of being afraid to believe in a creator, that people don't believe this video. I am stating that maybe people don't believe this video and theory for another reason, being they just think it is poor reasoning.
Your general statement that not being willing to see the truth is arrogance might be as true as 1+1=2, but it is not relevant for this discussion. The reasoning of the gentleman is just quite poor and superficial, and that is why I think it is not a good video.
@@nijebo1 I stand by what I said. You can be given a world of evidence. It can be shoved right in your face and people will still deny it. This video made absolute sense. But if you do not have the heart to really listen and have the willingness to seek TRUTH, and not just watch to disprove God, then you will walk away having learned nothing and just more confused than before. We have such a way of overcompensating as humans. When we don’t want to face reality, we try to make excuses to deny it. This is because we don’t want to face that we may be wrong and acknowledging that there is an all seeing God kinda means you can’t sin freely, and we’re pretty rooted in our human pleasures and sinful ways.
As a believer, I couldn't help but shed tears. The film was well done, spoke the truth in love, and the editing was superior. I found myself praying for the people in the film and others whom I continue to know and who live in an unrighteous state. Thank you Ray, and all involved in putting this marvelous film together.
I cried like a baby!! God’s love and mercy are unsurmountable
I just found this to be silly. I mean George Pell is in this.
@@Quint-ib4nf Sure, he was a Catholic, but that doesn't make him wrong on issues as they pertain to the film.
I grew up in a communist country that means I grew up atheist!
1990 I escaped the communist regime
proud to say I accepted Jesus Christ as my saver.
So So
Good for you. God bless you.
@@chrisbotha3881
Unfortunately, pope francis doesn't decide. John 3:16 sums it up nicely.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE."
Also, see Matthew 25:46, Romans 6:23, Luke 12:5, and Mark 9:43.
Awesome God bless you
Blessings, it literally must have been like taking the blinders off going from black and white to 4K high definition for you. Socialism NEVER works.
God bless you. Evolution big bang atheism moral relativity and rampant sexual immorality seem to be the prescription for destroying a people or a nation, its terrifing to me. I just want to obey Him and be of some use keep my heart pure keep the sin habbits under His subjection and plant seeds for Him. We live in a post christian world where many people havent even heard the gospel even right here in the usa. We need personal revival in our hearts each person and then we need to start a holy fire! Clean this place up start big families abandon the tv and start enjoying the good things God graces us with....like friends families fishing hiking studying learning witnessing preaching practicing charity...personally i think i could honor gGod much better with my time, its His time anyway.
The older man, Richard, reminded me of my Dad. He was gloriously saved 2 yrs & 4 months before he went to heaven...at age 56 ✝️ 🙏 ❤️
Amen
Sorry
People don't understand the love Christians have for total strangers. I didn't until I became a Christian, but the thing is, I started out like this, I loved people so much when I was an innocent child, I just forgot along the way. Satan tries to beat that out of you. Life is so much better now that I have it back. There is no better treasure. There is no amount of wealth that could replace or purchase it.
that's lovely. Thanks for sharing.
I wonder how many people were in this video and watched it after it was uploaded and realized how true it all must be when put together
"An atheist believes that nothing created everything"
False. We simply do not claim to know how the creation took place.
You do not claim to know how the creation took place ... except that you know it wasn't God, right?
By the way, use of the term "creation" necessitates a "Creator" behind that creation. You might want to change your verbiage to something that shows you really believe everything came about from nothing by chance, for no reason.
Troy Schukar Schuka Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, there is a blurry, grey line between the definitions of atheism of agnosticism. From what I can tell, agnosticism is a description of one's views on epistemology itself, whereas theism/atheism is a description of one's views on the existence of a personal, interventionist God. They're actually in two different categories altogether. I maintain that the only rational, defensible position is one of agnosticism. You can be an agnostic theist or an agnostic atheist, which is what I am. They are not mutually exclusive. The old trope that "an atheist is sure God doesn't exist, and an agnostic isn't really decided" is misleading and unhelpful.
The reason Mr. Comfort's statement "an atheist believes that nothing created everything" is factually inaccurate is that atheism doesn't constitute a positive assertion that a god does not exist. Rather, it's simply the _lack_ of the positive assertion that he does indeed exist.
I hope that clears it up.
***** Ah yes, I used the word "creation" because I secretly believe in God. It's all a ruse.
If you're done being pedantic, I'd like to continue.
I'm afraid you're mistaken again. I am making no assertions about how the universe must have come in to being. Rather, I am simply _not_ asserting that I _do_ know. Am I open to the possibility that Yahweh created the universe? Absolutely. I was, after all, a devoted Christian for 15 years in training to become a pastor. But as it currently stands, I do not find myself convinced. Therefore, just as I do not believe that Atlas holds up the earth, and am therefore an a-Atlas-ist, I am also an a-Yahweh-ist. "Atheist" is an accurate umbrella term for believing in one less god than you do, as the total number of gods I believe exist numbers zero, whereas I imagine yours numbers one.
So my original comment stands. Mr. Comfort's statement "an atheist believes that nothing created everything" is simply an inaccurate representation of non-theistic philosophy.
There is no evidence for god. Sucks for you eh? The Bible is riddled with errors. That's tough eh? But you have your position. I had your position and I realized it was wrong. Maybe you will too.
Troy Schukar Schuka Your change from an apparently feigned friendly tone to an overtly hostile one is very disappointing. I can't help but notice you didn't respond to a single thing I said. Would you like to rebut anything I said (even though I wasn't making any arguments)?
This isn't just for Atheists... but, as a Christian, watching this video and the way Brother Comfort goes deep into the depth of richness of God's glory, gives new meaning to my own personal relationship with Christ. God bless you, Brother Comfort and I pray that every person that you've communicated within this video, will be touched by the hand of God and their eyes opened to the truth of the gospel. Especially, the old guy. Lord, please don't let him leave this earth until he's accepted, Jesus.
Amen! May God bless you 💗
this was only for the christians, he indirectly insulted other religions and even atheists.. pathetic
@@Mina-zg7oi
It's pathetic (& damning) to be deceived by false doctrine religion. At least he cares & does something about it. It only helps those with humility; eyes to SEE & ears to HEAR. You're obviously not being called because of your hard-hearted pride & love of your sin. When/if you get tired of suffering the consequences of your sin, you'll FINALLY stop trusting your fallible self & wicked worldly nonsense & cry out to & be saved by YAHSHUA/JESUS. Prayers for you to wake up & KNOW Him BEFORE it's too late. HalleluYAH! Be well in YAHSHUA/JESUS. 🙋🏼♀️

Hello Avery, you are in my prayers and if you have any questions you would like to ask regarding theology, Jesus, Christianity, I'm here for you. I don't believe in pushing religion on anyone but if you ever have questions, I am happy to answer them so you can decide for yourself. I always have believed that final decision to accept Christ as your Savior is between you and Christ alone. God Bless you!
VAIBHAVI GUPTA thank you so much
Patriot Coin Rings ok thank you so much
@@elloluv859 of course Avarie, I'd be lying if I didn't say I've been there as well but it was those very feelings that made me more driven to find answers and it's true, the more answers I had the more questions I had and it just kept growing which lead to a study in theology then many years of missionary work. I'm here for you if you would like someone to talk to and I'd even give you my private contact information if you ever need to speak off the record if it is more personal. Again, God Bless, you're in my prayers.
I am saved almost 40 years. This movie so blessed me..I fell in love w each of these kids..and was tearful at the end.
40 YEARS WOW
That was powerful! Ever since my mum went to be w/ the Lord, & since reading the Bible & watching living waters, I see differently now. I want to share the good news. Praying for courage, wisdom & the ability to speak boldly about the good news. I got to share what I knew fr the Bible & also my own testimonies before my mum passed & im so grateful God put it in my heart to share. When I look around when I’m in the subway, I wish I could share w/ them the good news, like Ray does, speaks so lovingly, gentle & truthfully.
Wow 🤯 I was baptised earlier this year and I’m very early in my Christian life . I feel recently I’ve fallen off the path and this movie really was just another reminder of how good God is and how my beliefs and actions really dictate my next step . Thank you living waters for this amazing film and thank you Jesus for all the wonderful people who with love in their heart evangelise to the world
In my teens and twenties I continued to rebel against my Christian upbringing. I kept searching for "my happiness," and I made plenty of mistakes including marrying a non-believer. Happy to say that in my mid-50s, I re-committed my life to Christ and I have been at peace ever since. Real happiness in Christ alone. You'll be in my prayers. Stay strong and wear the shield of Jesus Christ ✝️

And how much money does living waters make, without paying a dime in taxes?
What about all the corporations that every day all of us contribute to in one way or another. Many if all of them do not pay all of the taxes they should because of loopholes in the tax laws.
This is a Beautiful video…..and I shared it with many asking them to share with kids and young adults
I read the comments and all I can think of is how amazing it is to be all brothers and sisters in Christ. Sharing the same sentiment. Praise the Lord Jesus! ❤
I was once an atheist, and i made some dumb arguments in defense of evolution, but i never got a good argument back from Christians. I finally ran across some people who made some decent arguments not only for creation, but also for the God of the Bible, instead of just telling me " you just gotta have faith ". They even said that faith isn't about believing something without evidence, but trust, which makes a lot more sense and is biblical. If i had run into those people a lot earlier in life, my life would've been much better. I've made some bad decisions.
Don't think all atheists are stubborn and won't listen, sometimes they just want a sound argument and not circular arguments such as " you just gotta have faith ". Paul said " Prove all things, hold fast that which is good ( or TRUE ) "
That not only goes for proving God's existence and the truth of the Bible, but also the things you believe about God and what the Bible says.
Don't just believe what you've been taught. Search the scriptures to see if the things you've been taught are truly what the Bible teaches.
@@ariahh3770
Yes, and the TRUE gospel, which is actually plainly stated . People are actually believing a false gospel.
Part of the problem is people don't actually read the Bible but instead believe things they've been taught, or just as bad, they read into the Bible things they've been taught, when they just aren't there.
My point is, the Bible is actually very clear, but people listen more to people's " interpretations " than to what the Bible really says.
This is also spread to the atheists and that's part of the problem. They THINK the Bible teaches certain things because that is what is commonly taught in the Churches, but isn't actually what is plainly stated in the Bible. They rightfully reject the beliefs, but wrongfully reject the Bible, because they think those beliefs are what are taught in the Bible.
An honest reading of the Bible is really eye opening.
The last part of your comment is SO important!! Always fact check what you hear, with scripture. Even with pastor’s teachings. And never listen to anyone who doesn’t quote scripture, it can be dangerous. My 2 favorite pastors on youtube are Jeff Durbin and Francis Chan. I’ve fact checked them many times and they are reputable, know and understand the Bible so well, that I trust them. God bless you Justin, for coming out of the darkness and into the light. I’m so happy you found Jesus!!
👏👏👏
Well said, and hopefully you are now reaching out to those who were once like you, and trying to help them save their souls. If that is what you are called to do, I myself don't have the words for some people but I do for others which is why I speak when I see someone who thinks like I use to. God Bless you and I will pray for your continued success in God's work!
Justin Case
Your words mean a great deal to me. My step sister is a buddhist, and I need to be well armed with scripture before I have a truth discussion with her. She is a beautiful part of my life and we are soulmates, and the thought of her ending up in hell rips my heart to shreds. Her dad was Catholic when she was growing up, and pushed the catholic “religion” aspect on her until she hated the Bible. I too grew up Catholic, and people with that background are very hard to reach. I welcome any advice you may have.
The older man really touched my heart, I feel I want to hug him, bless him.
Me too.
I want to see him with us on Judgement Day for sure. His heart is so pure.
Me too! Let's pray for him 🙏
I completely agree, towards the end you could see God is talking to him you can see that he’s yearning for that comfort he’s been looking for his whole life, may God bless him and I hope to see him in Heaven as well as all of you, God bless you guys and stay hopeful in the Lord.
@Mister Sifter What brought you to this comment section? Are you looking for answers? What made your heart so hard?
I am not an accident, I was placed here for a purpose. I have the love of God. Such a powerful message.
You are not an accident. You are the product of evolution. There is proof of you. There is no proof for the existence of a god.
@@noobisprop Atheists assemble!
It’s a crap message that preys on the weak minded and indoctrinated.
Yah - if it makes you feel good about yourself - go with it.
You are an accident and there is no celestial "purpose" for you. As we humans matured we created many abstract concepts to try to explain to ourselves stuff that confounded us. We wondered why we were here and slowly developed the concept of purpose. But whatever purpose we have is whatever we create for ourselves as we go through life. Mine? Make myself happy, help contribute to others being happy, learning about myself and what my talents and abilities were, little things like that.
You can’t prove anything by interviewing people who are not professionals on the field and biasedly cherry-picking the speech of the ones who are.
This is a disingenuous production and evangelicals and their apologetic teams are fool of crap. Can't see the blur between what you think exists and what we actually know exists.
Exactly. Literally no “evidence” here whatsoever.

G.K. Chesterton once said: “when people stop believing in God, they don’t believe in nothing, they believe in anything.”
Agnostic Atheist
You said: "...they believe in anything that has been substantiated to be true."
I take it then that if you believe that "nothing created everything" then you believe it because it has been substantiated to be true?
Edward Tryon failed to do this in his 1973 article in the Journal: Nature.
Stephen Hawking failed to do this in his book "The Grand Design."
Lawrence Krauss failed to do this in his book: "A Universe from Nothing."
If you can substantiate this fairy tale, then please do so. Go ahead, I'll wait.
Agnostic Atheist
You said: "Where did I state "nothing created everything"? That is simply a theists dishonest misrepresentation of what science states."
No sir, you are wrong.
In a December 1973 article of the journal Nature, Edward Tryon first posited how our universe could have come from nothing and yet stay within the laws of physics. He stated that “our universe may have originated as a quantum fluctuation of the vacuum.” This is the idea that the universe allows for the creation of something from nothing provided that the laws of nature exist… Of course if the laws of nature exist, and the laws of nature are not nothing, then the universe did not come from nothing, but from something… So where did the laws of nature come from?
Stephen Hawking agreed in his book “The Grand Design,” in it, he said: “Because there is a law of gravity, the universe can and will create itself out of nothing.” Firstly, since the creation of the universe is dependent upon the pre-existence of the law of gravity, and gravity is not nothing, then the universe was not created out of nothing, but something. Next, he posits that the universe created itself. Now, if I say that “X” creates “Y” then I am presupposing the existence of “X” to explain the existence of “Y.” If I say that “X” creates “X” then I must presuppose the existence of “X” in order to account for “X.” This is obviously self-contradictory. To presuppose the existence of the universe in order to account for the existence of the universe sounds like something from Alice and Wonderland, not science. Thirdly, the notion that the law of gravity - a law of nature - explains the existence of the universe is self-contradictory since a law of nature by definition must depend for its own existence on the prior existence of the nature it purports to describe.
In Lawrence Krauss’ 2012 book, called “A Universe from Nothing,” in the chapter titled “Nothing is Unstable,” Krauss posited that the laws of physics could have created the universe from nothing via quantum fluctuations. Richard Dawkins agreed to the degree that he wrote the afterword to his book. On page 172, Krauss acknowledges: “All of the examples I have provided thus far indeed involve creation of something from what one should be tempted to consider as nothing, but the rules for that creation, i.e. the laws of physics, were pre-ordained. Where do the rules come from?”
Agnostic Atheist
So what are the laws of nature, and where did they come from? The laws of nature certainly are not physical themselves, but they are mechanisms that act upon the physical. So if the creation of the universe was contingent upon them, then they must have the following attributes:
1) They are not physical in nature
2) They act upon the physical
3) They facilitated the creation of the physical universe from nothing
4) They predate the universe
5) They are currently active in governing the universe
The attributes of the laws of nature sound exactly like the attributes that the Bible attributes to God. While the laws of nature obviously are not themselves "God," they do describe how He chooses to govern this universe, and because they are not contingent upon the physical universe because they predate it, they point directly to God because they could only have come to exist through Him. So, the atheist who claims not to believe in God but does believe in the laws of nature is admitting that he does know that God exists, but that he suppresses that knowledge. Just as Romans 1:18-32 states, when man chooses not to worship the God that he already knows exists, he worships the creature rather than the Creator, therefore scientific principles become his god.
Agnostic Atheist
You said: "Nothing" in reality has never been substantiated to actually exist. It simply remains to be a philosophical concept.” I agree. If there ever was a time when there was absolutely nothing, then nothing is all that there ever would be. This only leaves two options - either the universe is eternal, which is demonstrably impossible - an eternal universe comprised completely of contingent entities is an infinite causal chain, and an infinite causal chain is an effect without a cause, and that is impossible. OR, the universe was created by God who is eternal - this is demonstrably the only explanation.
You said: “What science states is the universe expanded from a singularity. In which there is no evidence for causation, origins, or whether or not that singularity was eternal.” No, you misunderstand the science. Science does not deny causation, origins, or creation - science can only go back to a certain point in the universe’s existence at which point there is no evidence of its existence prior to that point. That’s it. (Remember, science is about the collection of data from that which can be observed, NOT about the drawing of conclusions about things which cannot be observed) The minute that a scientist makes a claim about that which he cannot observe, he steps out of the realm of science and into that of philosophy.
You said: “So what does scientists state about such unexplained questions? "We don't know, however, we are working on a substantiated answer." Except for all of those scientists who admit that the data points to a creation.
You said: “1) They are not physical in nature - What are you talking about? They are physical and/or effects are physical. The laws of physics of universe are simply inherent properties of this universe.” The laws of nature are the absolute, universal governing principles to which every event in the universe must conform without exception.
You said: “2) They act upon the physical - contradicting number 1.” No. The laws of nature act upon physical matter, though the laws of nature themselves are not composed of physical matter.
You said: “3) They facilitated the creation of the physical universe from nothing - wrong, as I already explained about "nothing". Then you have not read Tryon, Hawking, or Krauss. They posit that the quantum fluctuation responsible for bringing the universe into existence “from nothing” was entirely dependent upon the pre-existence of the laws of nature - specifically: gravity.
You said: “4) They predate the universe - No evidence for this.” Then you disagree with Tryon, Hawking, and Krauss.
Until you can account for the existence of the laws of nature that are the absolute, universal governing principles to which every event in the universe conforms without exception, then you have no choice but to worship God.
Agnostic Atheist
Logical fallacies? I'll tell you what... Every atheist by necessity must also be a reductionist - that is, they believe that the explanation for all that exists can be explained by physics and chemistry. However, when you look at the words on the page of a book, they are merely ink marks on paper, but they carry meaning. I challenge you to explain the meaning of the word "paper" strictly in terms of physics and chemistry.
This was wonderful! Praise be to God and God bless Ray Comfort.
I am weeping at the new brothers from this video, and I'm genuinely faithful that many of the women are also my sisters. When Richard asked why a stranger would care about him... I knew that feeling, but now I also know that Love is written on the hearts of all men if we soften them to God's will. Thank you for sharing this and sharing the Good News.
Welp,as a graduate of UCLA I can say welp
As a graduate of UCLA, can you prove that the Bible is not true????
Well. This got me Weeping and asking God for forgiveness. I have been a hipocrite for a long time and all it has given me is pain, sorrow and sadneas. I now know the importance of Life better. Thank you Jesus.

ARTISTdaisyJ. Thank you very much, really need that. God bless you and lets pray for those who are hesitant so that they may believe and receive the crown of life as the word promises.
Faith is all I need my friend and it is in faith that evidence is realised. Please read Hebrews 11:1 and Ephesians 2:8. You see... Faith makes a fool of what makes sence.
Let me direct you to someone who is more equipped to deal with such questions. Please read the scriptures I sent, I beg you.
I gave you scriptures to read and a video to watch and you havent done either. It seems to me that you actually ignoring the evidence or you just afraid that it will turn out to be true.

@Chaz Daz Your are angry enough to be passive aggressive and rude but your evidence doesn’t justify it.

How was your New Years?
Arguments from incredulity, quote mining, Misrepresenting science, and catching people off guard who aren't prepared to answer his questions. Another Ray Comfort "movie" that will make some Christians feel better about themselves, but in the end it will make no difference at all.
Quote mining and misrepresenting science? Can you provide specifics?
Sure, he quote mines Dawkins and Krauss talking about "nothing." He says "So you're and atheist so you believe that nothing created everything." No one believes nothing created anything. He constantly refers "random accidents" when referring to evolution but no one claims evolution is a series of random accidents. When talking about DNA he claims atheists think "the book made itself." DNA isn't a book and no one things it made itself. Nothing but fallacy after fallacy after fallacy.

Josh Odell sex isn’t a sin... but when man misuses it for his own will and twists it for evil - it’s a sin because it leads him away from God in a pursuit for Joy that ultimately isn’t found in doing so... the same as sleep isn’t a sin but when misused it is, if you were to never get out of bed - and just sleep all day and night it would destroy you - some people in depression do this - yet it does not heal anyone - it makes them worse - for sleep has its purpose... same as eating isn’t a sin but if one uses eating beyond Gods intended use - it destroys man, it can make one unhealthy and die - people in depression use eating for help... SIN is when man turns away from God in seek of PLEASURE and HEALING in the creation, rather than seeking the Creator for all its satisfaction and Joy... and see, that’s our fallen nature, we are at enmity with God - we hate him and think we are sufficient outside of him and can DO IT OUR WAY - yet we are void inside without him and PERISH all alone... what you need is to repent of your sins and say FATHER I NEED YOU IN MY LIFE - I AM A REBEL - IM SORRY, TAKE ME BACK
@@PoeticCollective So true. There are so many references in the Bible about the abuse of good gifts that God gives to people. Sex is one of those divinely ordained gifts. Even in the garden, God commands, "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth", (Gen. 1:28). But since the fall of Adam and Eve, many of the gifts that God has given us has been abused in such a way that dishonors God and His established order. As someone who has spent many years doing things my own way, I can tell you that there is NO greater joy than doing things God's way. I use to be a sinner (by nature and by choice), indulging in all sorts of worldly pleasures, such as premarital sex, drugs, and alcohol abuse. But when someone shared the Gospel message with me, how that God, who loves us so much, came down to earth in the Person of Jesus Christ, died a literal death on a Roman cross to make a full payment for my sin debt, then rose up from the dead to sit at the right hand of God the Father, the eyes of my understanding began to see how through God's plan set in place from before the foundation of the earth, He was making a way for sinners like me to stand justified (declared NOT GUILTY) in heavens court of law. All will stand before Him in judgment. And there will only be 2 outcomes: 1.) Stand in Christ's righteousness and allow His work on the cross to cleanse you from all guilt and condemnation, or 2.) Depend on your own works of righteousness, by rejecting His gift of salvation in Christ.
One of the works of the Holy Spirit is to reveal the true nature of our souls. And one of the first things he will show a person who's not in relation with Christ is their guilt. All have sinned and stand guilty before a holy God. But he reveals our guilty condition so that He can save us from it. For how can a person be saved if they don't realize they need saving?
There is NO hope apart from Christ. You can search the world all over, and it will all come back to this: "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" (Jn. 14:6).

Kinda like believing you're ancestors were fish 😂
@@richardlozano251 No scientists believe that our ancestors are fish… thats just what ignorant people think we believe.
Jesus said "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Because children lack the pride and puffed up knowledge that a lot of us adults get stuck in. Pride is a folly that leads many hard hearts astray, please don't let it keep you from eternal life in Jesus Christ. He is the way the truth and the life, the perfect sacrifice for our sins.
"But we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those who are called,..Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength."
He is the Creator who formed all that we see from nothing and put all the laws that govern the earth and hold life together in place! Without him we are nothing and his intelligence is vastly beyond anything we can comprehend.
It has taken human beings thousands of years so uncover only a tiny portion of what God set in place for life to be able to exist and function. Please have ears to hear his words for you and to have salvation on the day of judgment.

I F*CKING HATE RAY COMFORT!
The most elaborate God of the gaps video.
Very little can be known about anything. One can trust that their spouse loves them, but such critical information is impossible to know for certain. We trust our knowledge based on the supporting evidence. This is what Ray does in this video. He argues from the complexity of the universe and its fine tuning, that it makes more sense to say that there is a God, than to say that everything just happened by accident. It’s common sense thinking since we do not see such amazing things occur in nature by chance, nor do we see it within society, but only by the intelligent life.
In short: is there a gap in our knowledge? Certainly! As with everything. But only a fool will throw up their hands and say “To heck with it all. There is nothing to learn!” And I believe we find compelling evidence for God and very little evidence for atheism. To trust such evidence is not foolishness, as all humans should pursue truth wherever the evidence leads, even when such truth cannot be directly known at this time with the certainty that some people desire.
“our god isn’t a god of the gaps, he’s the whole show”
Best comment here.
God is so amazing!!!! As a former atheist, I never actually listened to theists. Just wanted confirmation bias. But watching conversations like this now I realize it’s really hard to disprove God’s existence
Me too. Praise to the Lord.

As an ex-Christian, watching this video just makes me cringe, the people he interviewed were clearly chosen because of their lack of a basic understanding of evolutionary processes. And some of the arguments Ray is making for a god just aren't very good. Basically all Ray did throughout this entire video was:
1. Present the watchmakers analogy, except in the form of a book, he states a book is complex, so it requires a writer just as we are complex, so we require a creator. Not only is this faulty logic, it also completely disregards the process of natural selection. Using the same logic, I could say your god is complex, therefore your god has a creator just as we are complex and require a creator, and that creator requires a creator, and so on. Just because we have one thing in common with a book doesn't mean our origins are the same. And even if your analogy was valid, it still fails to prove the existence of your god, god could be a spaghetti cookie monster for all we know.
2. Argument from incredulity, Ray kept going on and on about how beautiful our world is and how the chances of life existing on a planet in the universe are so slim (when it isn't, there are millions of potential habitable planets just in our galaxy) This kind of argument is considered a logical fallacy, something seeming crazy to you doesn't prove anything.
3. And after making a bunch of other arguments that could be easily disproved I'm too bored to respond to and asking a bunch of questions that could be easily answered by anyone literally anyone but the people he decided to put into the video. He proceeds to preach about the god of the bible.
I really don't get why people see this as a good film when it's just a bunch of flimsy arguments mixed in with some preaching.
@@acowfrommars3565 Sorry, but your very comment PROVES that you were NEVER ...TRULY.... a "Christian". A true Christian is someone who PERSONALLY KNOWS and has a PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH... Jesus Christ. The Risen, LIVING PERSON of Jesus Christ. What you had was, the same thing I had for years... "CHURCHIANITY"... "Religion" and nothing more. I FULLY understand. I had that, and "Had it" with that and felt exactly as you do now. It took years for me to let go of all of that and begin seeking the REALITY of everything. I MET Jesus Christ and He LIVES IN me. I never knew ANYTHING like it. I could quote whole chapters of the Bible, but did NOT KNOW the One that it's all written about. I went to a private Church School and studied "Bible" the 1st hour of every day. In the Church EVERY time the doors were open, and NEVER KNEW God. I HATED "Religion" and EVERYTHING about it. I cussed out "Jesus People" who tried to witness to me. Then, one day, BOOM, THERE HE WAS.... IN my life, and I had to UNlearn everything I THOUGHT I knew about Him, and really get to know Who HE REALLY IS. He LOVES you beyond all comprehension. I pray, right now, that He comes into your life as Genuinely and Authentically as He has mine. WHEN you hear Him knocking, Open The Door.
@@thomasmartinscott dude... Stop trying to convert everyone you meet. It just makes you look crazy, people more intelligent than you have tried with me, using actual arguments instead of just spouting beliefs into my face like you are. People like you are partly why I left Christianity, you aren't open minded and when someone has a valid opinion that differs from yours on an issue you just completely disregard it and just say satan is manipulating them when in fact you're the one being manipulated by your religious leaders that indirectly tell you to not be open-minded. If you want to discuss Ray's points during the video I would be more than willing to but stop pushing your beliefs into my face, it doesn't help at all.
@@acowfrommars3565 the only thing that holds faulty logic is your first premise. You cannot state that because our God is complex he requires a creator. That would presuppose that God isnt eternal and that you've evaluated him in any way to find a scale of the knowledge he posses. At that point you wouldn't be talking about the God of the bible or any other "god" for that matter. The fact that you even state that must obviously mean that you haven't even analyzed all the arguments for God's existence 🤦🏾♂️. I'm assuming you're an athiest? After you tell me. We will continue this discussion since you obviously wanna talk about your lack of belief (even though no one asked).

"God confounds the wise, but gives grace to the humble."
The stories in the Bible are crazy because you have to have faith to trust in God. It’s taken thousands of years of scientific discovery to find out that our universe began in a large void, just like the one described in the book of Genesis. If you’d like to have a civil conversation, awesome! I will pray for you regardless.
Kyle G we actually dont know where our universe began we know what happened a few milliseconds after the Big Bang and that’s as close as we can get right now but prior to the Big Bang it’s just as probable there was another universe here that had suffered its own heat death then all the matter collected together to form the singularity, it could also be our universe exited a black hole and that was the Big Bang moving through a multiverse. We just don’t know but god did it is a terrible answer because it explains nothing and we want to know what actually happened that’s more important so we keep digging, hypothesizing, and searching for answers. We choose to go to the moon.
We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, when we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too. -John F. Kennady
The line in this we should all strive for is ‘to do things not because they’re easy but because they are hard’ and that’s our focus on the discoveries in science. We are human we have a challenge and we strive to overcome it and we don’t need Jesus to do it
Just pray for him yall

@@jennyberger8229 One day those who reject God's free gift of salvation will have eternity to reflect on all their past baseless assertions that "god is not real" and that believers "wasted the majority of [their] life for nothing." All have sinned (Romans 3:23), the punishment for sin is death (Romans 6:23), and "It is appointed for man to die once, and then comes judgment" (Hebrews 9:27). If you have a history of moral rebellion against your Creator including hating, lusting, stealing, lying, being greedy/jealous, denying God altogether, idolatry, using your Creator's name as a curse word, disobedience, sexual immorality, etc. then you're in trouble if you don't have Someone to pay your fine... and your fine will be paid, one way or another.

This made me cry!! I love hearing the gospel ♥️ I wish I had the confidence to approach strangers and speak with them like Ray does. I care about people so much, I’m just terrified of them 😞
It gets easier as you do it, and the first times for everyone is always intimidating and the flesh tries to talk us out of doing it at all.
You can ask them "if I was your neighbor and I only had a week to live, and I asked you how I can get right with God from a lifetime of lying, stealing, lusting, hating, coveting blaspheming and more, what would you tell me?" They'll then point out what they're believing and you can then address it with what you know (or look into things later if you weren't sure at the time what to say).
As part of a response to this, I often point out that there are only two religions in the world: countless versions of "DO this or that and you (might) be saved" and God / Jesus Christ's truth of "It is done by what Jesus Christ did on the cross, and we just accept that by faith" with a few verses to following:
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. John 3:16
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Titus 3:5
And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:30-31
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
All anyone has to do is preach the Gospel (the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ) and God is the one that gives the increase.
The more you do it, the more comfortable you get with it. And any "mistake" you think you do, think of what you'd say next time, and your confidence and knowledge grows.
May God bless!

What is truth? God is truth, one of His many intrinsic qualities, that is common knowledge.
So because Ray is speaking about the perfect qualities of God - that are common knowledge - he's hardly making a fallacious argument is he?
Heather Artus
he called them lots of names and gave them a guilt trip.
reading the bible is the main reason that i'm an atheist.
i couldn't believe a story about a god that is supposed to be able to talk directly to people.
and yet that same god (who is supposed to want a relationship with everyone) doesn't bother to talk to any of us.
Idiot atheist just because you claim a god is communicating with you, doesn't mean your god is real.
there are simple ways to test the claim that you are communicating with a god.
(depending on which version of god you are claiming to communicate with).
just because you can't hear leprechauns talking to you, doesn't mean they're not talking.
foodfood correct, and just because you claim to hear leprechauns, doesn't mean that leprechauns are real.
the time to believe a claim is after you have sufficient evidence to support that claim.
i haven't seen any evidence for a god, so i have no sound reason to believe a god is real.
Idiot atheist so you resort to ad hominem attacks, because you have already run out of sound reasons.
i agree, Just because people claim the Holocaust happened does not mean it happened.
however there is actual evidence for the holocaust, and i haven't seen any evidence for a god.
i didn't use a straw man fallacy. since you claim i did, why don't you tell me what exactly you are claiming is the straw man?
maybe then i can correct your mistake.
+Idiot atheist then you should start with specifics these questions should be simple to answer.
are you convinced that a god is real?

You could prove the Big Bang and evolution are complete frauds and it still wouldn’t get you any closer to a god doing anything. All you have is a book written by men claiming divine inspiration. And then this same book promotes slavery, misogyny, homophobia, child sacrifices, victim blaming, and genocide.
It’s bullsh!t painted to look “holy.”
Very informative, thanks Ray!
I'm late to this video. Wow..how I cried with tears of compassion for these people and even myself. I am surrendering ALL. Thank you whoever put this video here. Thank you 💜💜💜
Aaaah, same here!! 😭 I watched this film twice in the past couple of days and cried both times. I will pray for you, Cindy! 🙏🏽 Big hug from the Netherlands! 🤗❤
@@TheNewLifeOfFienie thank you! 🙏💗
I literally cried so hard by the end of this. My heart just warmed so much. I was so happy from them and by the end actually cared deeply about these people's lives and what they went through and would happen to them. Oh my jesus is truly lord.
Me too man I cried because I was wondering how could God still love me even when I was a retched sinner who just believed in the existence of Jesus, how could he love me who broke almost all of his holy laws and your telling me that I can still obtain everlasting life, MAN GOD IS GOOD, GOOD IS GOD.
HAHA!
Goodness and beautyness
I litterally think you're overexaggerating.
I wish someone would’ve shown me Christ earlier in my life. Please pray God will spur me into share the Gospel with as many people as I can until He calls me home!
i would be this guy is trash at texting back...
Same!!! Praying for you!
@MISTUHjawknee
I'd love to help you share God's word. I think the most important thing I learned in sharing Gods word is that it wasn't my job to "convince" anyone that God was who you and I know Him to be. It doesn't matter how much evidence, logical, historical, experiential, or existential truth you share in kindness if someone wants to deny God, (here is the important part)..."That's between them and God alone"! Our job is only to "share" God's word and what they want to do with it is up to them. If we don't, their blood is on our hands but if after hearing the truth they leave this world still in denial, they will have to answer to God standing before the thrown one day.
I love to answer questions as a missionary and am here for any "sincere" person who has a question they are really desiring the knowledge of however you'll find many trying to convince you that God doesn't exist and some that will push to try and even put doubt in your own mind doing Satans will just as was done in the Garden. I'll be kind, answer as politely as I can and extend it with a few follow-up answers (they will always be the ones with the questions demanding answers and never have an answer for your reply) and I'll do this to a point. At some point, they either need to use their own God-given intellect or choose not to, and at that point as an avid fisherman, I like to say "Cut bait" (let them go).
To answer your question on how to share His word and provide an effective testimony, share something that conveys both your own experience and the Gospel of Christ so that someone else has the information about the process of salvation from truth.
(1) To do this, start by writing down the details of how you came to trust in Christ to save you. Answering the following questions to help you: a) Who told me about Christ? b) What events led up to me trusting or believing in Christ? c) When did I trust in Christ? d) Where was I when I first believed? e) How has faith in Christ been a blessing to me?
(2) Next write this out so that it flows well as a story. Try to be as concise as possible. As a goal, try to make the length of your testimony so that it can be effectively shared in three minutes or less.
(3) Make sure you have included the appropriate Scriptures in your testimony. Remember that it is Scripture that is authoritative because it is God’s Word. As an example, your testimony should consist of your becoming aware that you were separated from God by your sin (Romans 3:23), the realization that you would spend eternity away from God if you did not receive forgiveness (Romans 6:23), the understanding that God sent His only perfect Son Jesus to die and pay for your sin (Romans 5:8), and finally your receiving forgiveness by trusting alone in Christ’s payment for sin (Acts 16:31).
As an example, below is my testimony of how I came to trust in Christ as my Savior.
Though as a child and teenager I spoke with a pastor three or four times about how I might go to heaven when I died, I never really understood the Gospel of Christ until I was a young adult in my mid-20s. Over the course of a few years, I began reading the Bible, listening to a couple of good conservative Bible teachers on television, and discussing what I had heard with Christians at work. Through this, I came to realize that I was a sinner separated from God and deserved to be eternally separated from God. This was based on Romans 3:23 “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” and Romans 6:23 “the wages of sin is death.” I also came to understand that God loves me so much that He sent His Son Jesus, and Jesus came to earth specifically to die for my sins (and the sins of the whole world) so that I could be forgiven (Romans 5:8; John 3:16).
Finally, I came to understand that there was no way I could be good enough or work my way to heaven. Romans 3:10 says there is none who does good and Ephesians 2:8-10 declares that salvation is a gift of God, not something earned, and it is received only by faith, which is to simply trust in or rely completely on the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ as payment for my sin. After I came to understand these truths from Scripture, I had a sense of assurance that since I could not work for my salvation, I could not lose it either since it is a gift from God.
There was a great sense of relief in knowing that I was forgiven and that God was on my side and wanted and still wants what is best for me. Since beginning my life with Christ, He has, by the power of the Holy Spirit who lives in my heart, continued to sanctify me through His Word and His working in my life. This forgiveness and security that I have from God can be yours too if you will trust Christ alone for the forgiveness of your sins.
Hope this helps,
Your brother in Christ,
Michael Baker
Praying for you, good luck!
Father use this man as a great witness for the gospel and may he have a heart if fire and the wisdom to reach the lost and answer all their questions and lead them to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith
Such a very loving, logical way of explaining this. Well done!
Thank you so much for uploading this to RUclips!!!!
Same old arguments that only appeal to the gullible, credulous, the ignorant, the superstitious. Books don't breed and evolve, neither do watches.
The Rapture of those who choose Jesus Christ over the world is here! Will you continue to believe the lies of the world after the Rapture?
How to get saved and "born again":
Humbly say these words aloud with all of your heart: I believe with all of my heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and died for me on the cross for my sins and that God has raised Him from the dead. Jesus please forgive me of my sins. Have the Holy Spirit take up residence within my soul and guide me in my new life. I give my life over to you Jesus Christ. Guide me to the eternal waters of everlasting life. I pray this in your Holy Mighty name Jesus Christ. Amen.
Do this now and become born again! There is no more time left!
Romans 10:9
If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:13
for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
The Lord is Jesus Christ. Jesus is The King of Kings, The Lord of Lords, The Beginning and The End, The Alpha and The Omega, The Prince of Peace, Immanuel, The Son of Man, The Son of the One True Living God, The Son of David, The Author of Salvation, The High Priest, The Perfect Lamb, The Lamb of God, The Savior, The Lion of Judah, The Christ, The Truth, The Light, The Life and The Messiah! EVERY knee shall bow and EVERY tongue shall confess that you are God!
Paul Thomas
Like I said: only the gullible.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictions_and_claims_for_the_Second_Coming_of_Christ
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
Kinda just validates scripture more, than contradicts that the second coming is wrong, Scripture proclaims no man can tell the day or the hour of the rapture.
regardless, you seem to be straw manning his argument, and completely missing his point of why a book can't make itself. Your saying because the system of breeding is in place, of course a book can't make itself, it can't breed! kinda an elementary argument there. It's pretty clear ray understands a book doesn't breed, I don't know if your just refusing to look at his argument, or just missed the entire point he was making in his argument. It's one or the other, because you didn't bring any credible rebuttals to his argument, that was even relevant to what his point was.
Artisan Crafter
So tell me, where is this "second coming" of Jesus talked about - outside of the gospel and Acts fantasies. The first coming was when he was "revealed" from the scriptures - like He.9:28, but his coming to be seen as a person on earth is yet to take place. James 5:7, Col.3:4, I Th.5:23, Ti.2:3, and I Jn.2:2-3, for instance. All these passages speak of the coming of Jesus, not the "second coming". This is the time when we "shall see him" for the first time, not the second. The only passages about a "return" are in the gospels and Acts, and those documents are older than the epistles, and clearly allegorical (Mark) or based on them.
And everything evolves (changes). Evolution as a biological process whereby those most adaptable to the environment survive to reproduce, and in so doing, pass their genes on to the next generation (something we've obviously bypassed today by assisting even the stupid to survive and breed). Books don't evolve, therefore it's illogical to compare books with things that do evolve. Our universe is potentially one of several in the multiverse, and those most adaptable are the survivors. It's perfectly justified to speak of the universes in much the same way we talk of evolution by natural selection. But claiming some "goddidit" requires more evidence than flawed logic.
"Banana-man" has only this single argument - the only arrow in his quiver, and it has nothing to do with Christianity any more than it does to Asatru or other religions. He has no more evidence for the existence of "Yahweh and his Asherah" as anyone has for An, Enlil, and Enki.
Rand Huso I'm either misunderstanding you, or maybe you are just not familiar with what scripture teaches, but Jesus Christ, fully god, fully man, came down and sacrificed himself for our sins, then he rose from the dead on the third day, The appearance of Christ and the resurrection, was his first coming, the speak of second coming is revealed in the book of revelations. Revelations hasn't happened yet, it's a foretelling of the end times, rapture, Jesus's reign on earth, etc. As your claim of the gospels being allegorical is just objectively false. It's pretty clearly written as a witness testimony to the Jesus's life and resurrection. Each book is written from the view point of an apostle, to say otherwise is (no offense) just being willfully ignorant on them. You might be confused on the fact that there are parables in them, but those are just simple analogies, and doesn't make the entire book an analogy.
I'm going to assume your pretty open minded, despite the strong words you have on the subject. I want to suggest something to you that might seem little strange but hear me out. We live in a secular society, evolution, an atheist agenda, has literally be indoctrinated into us as children. So because of this, we kinda have a natural bias against the supernatural, if you disagree on this, let me know. But this line is kinda the foundation of secularism, and in of itself has a huge problem. "Anything that can't be explained and is labeled as supernatural, will ultimately have a natural explanation". The problem here is, when you ask the question. "Does a supernatural being exist" you already have your answer, you have presumptions already made. Thats the very definition of bias isn't it? investigating something with your mind already made up? I just want to suggest this possibility, that because of how we are raised, and that this narrative has been ingrained in us, everyday in society, that you could have a natural bias towards anything thats supernatural.
If you are truly open minded, I highly recommend at least getting the book Cold Case Christianity by J Warner Wallace, it shows you that the statement of Christianity can be shown to have naturalistic evidence. All you have to be, is put away your emotions on the subject, and be open to the possibility that it could be true. It's like this, if the statement of christanity is false, it's not that important. But if it's true, it is the most important thing in this life, because of that very possibility, it's worthy of investigation.
I watched this the first time a couple years ago, and I think it was the start of my path to truth. I wish every single person could see this. So beautiful. Thank you Jesus for our amazing creation🙏🏽
Woke In Truth as an atheist i honestly feel bad. i don’t think christians r correct but they are definitely not saying jesus created humans. they know humans has been around for ages before jesus
If you think, that we have a creator, just remember: Almost EVERY biologist sees Evolution as a fact. They know how complex DNA is. This video is full of lies and misrepresentations.
Yay!! I love this comment!! Keep your faith in Him. He will NEVER LET YOU DOWN!
@@nenademiel9540 He will never let you down because he doesn't exist
2736 nice try. No one on this earth can convince me that He isn’t real. I know with all my heart mind & soul that He is living. Read the Bible.
Ray Comfort, you are an amazing person and I love how you show people the truth.
I really enjoyed watching this Jesus is the way 💛
I pray for the 21k atheists that saw this video (or more likely, just a part of this) and closed themselves down to it. Incredibly well put together, very strong and logical arguments put together.
And may God bless you all.
@Edward The Booble the whole point of the video is it makes accessible arguments. I don't need a PhD in philosophy to see that, at best, atheists take as big of a leap of faith as theists. You can get tied up in semantics if you want but you can't actually answer to a lot of this video. And you know it.
@@elbow_patches yeah. I say the same thing. I don't need a phd in philosophy to believe in God. See, I'm okay saying "I don't know".
@@elbow_patches atheism IS NOT A RELIGION!! The entire point is that we don’t believe in any god. If being an atheist is a religion, then NOT collecting stamps is a hobby. If atheism is a religion, then NOT playing football is a sport
@@elbow_patches I appreciate the blessing (even though I’m an atheist) but I have to disagree with your other statements. We do not take as big of a leap of faith as theists. While there is no evidence whatsoever God doesn’t exist, it is irrelevant. The Burden of Proof states that a statement is wrong until proven correct. For example, if I said that there are invisible, not feel-able, not smellable, not tastable, and not hearable (all similar to a ghost) giant elephants roaming around, would you believe me? Of course not. I didn’t provide any evidence for it, so therefore we must assume it is untrue. It’s the same thing with God. I’m not opposed to believing in him because I dislike faith, I’m opposed to believing in him because there is no evidence of him.
It's full of logical fallacies and bad science. It's laughable to people with an education, obviously this film was produced to pick on the ignorant and gullible.
Interesting how evidence changed nothing for those people but the love and mercy of Christ changed everything.
Blue Bird wow great observation
Have you considered since there is a GOD, that in his awesomeness he created all the Dna necessary for Jesus to be created.
Mary was just a regular woman who GOD chose to use as a vessel.
@@dabbbles The Power of the Holy Spirit makes the impossible, possible.: 34“How can this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” 35The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God. 36Look, even Elizabeth your relative has conceived a son in her old age.
Absolutely amen. evidence is can be blinded and ignored but the actual love of Christ when you recognize it os too overwhelming and real to ignore.
I think the evidence greased the wheels a bit and caused them to take their shield down. As long as that shield is there, it makes it easier for them to resist God. In the end, the love of God is what grabbed them
This is brilliant! You are helping me understand how to share the gospel. Thank you!
Just to add that by the end of that film, i felt love for each one of those people. The young girl who had the most to say particularly touched my heart. 🙏
That smile is so beautiful when people find out they have a creator
Very True.....!!!

Great video!!! When I went through college years ago it was popular to teach atheism and evolution. But I came from a Christian family so I kept that in perspective, and didn't let it consume me like many other students. But when I began going through my medical training I reached a point where I realized, GOD HAD TO BE REAL!!! Studying the human body how every system had a backup, and everything was soooo complex that in no way could their not be a creator. And when I spent time working in a mental hospital I found their had to be an evil adversary, because so many poor messed up delusional people were saying the same things, that I found they must be tormented by something, an evil!!! Over the years my beliefs have been reinforced many times with what I have seen. God is real, Angels are real and Evil is real. Jesus is my King, and he is returning!

When God shows Himself and opens your heart.. you can do nothing but kneel. For He is The King of all kings.
@@blondboozebaron The God of the Universe who created everyone and everything including the laws of nature themselves (Jeremiah 33:25) who put us in charge of everything, made us in His image and likeness, after we rebelled continued to take care of us, and then loved us so much that He created a way for us to be saved from the just punishment for our moral sins as a free gift if we were willing to accept it... Yeah I would like the sight.
Just as Isaiah broke down before God in repentance saying "I am undone because I am a man of unclean lips and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips, for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of Hosts" (Isaiah 6:5) I look forward to standing in front of Him knowing that He paid the fine for my sins and that He loves me.
I fear for those who reject Him, who will stand in front of Him knowing that they rejected Him their entire life and that they now stand in judgment, knowing that they are guilty of countless moral sins and that they will have eternity to reflect and regret that they chose to refuse His free gift. "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23), and "It is appointed for man to die once, and then comes judgment" (Hebrews 9:27)
