Cliffe Classics #1 - Give Me an Answer
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 авг 2024
- Recorded - Spring 1998
The "Give Me An Answer" ministry began as an outgrowth of the dialogues Cliffe Knechtle has had with students on various university campuses throughout the United States. These universities include the University of Maine, Harvard, MIT, University of Florida, University of Texas, University of Wisconsin, University of Minnesota, University of California Los Angeles, University of California San Diego, Berkeley, Stanford, University of Hawaii and the University of Washington. Cliffe spoke on these campuses in front of the Student Union or Library at noon for five to ten minutes. At the close of his initial remarks, he'd open up the time for questions and answers, which usually turned into a two to four hour dialogue with students. His crowd size ranged from 25 - 500 students at a time, and between classes, new students would join the discussion. This is an extremely effective way to reach a large number of university students with the Gospel of Christ.

The homie has given more answers than McDonald’s has served fries! 💯🔥🙌
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
Cliff's the man!
Huge fan of both you guyz👋
Yoooo
Love your videos bro
Even border jumpers listen to cliff 😂 sup mma I’m subbed and love ur channel dawg
"My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" transformed my faith. When I finally realized Jesus was saying the first line of a very popular psalm, and that psalm gets stuck in your mind, you would see in the lyrics a man being beaten, hands and feet pierced, his clothes gambled for, being encircled by his killers, and dying a slow horrible death. Which might explain why as soon as He says it, someone runs and gets a drink on a sponge and gives it to Him. The psalm mentions, "My tongue is parched and sticks to my mouth."
How could David know each detail in the death of this man hundreds of years before it happened? Because Jesus is the Messiah. And the choice of words was perfect!
Amen
Thank you so much for this download of knowledge ✝️🤲😊🫂!!!
Man Cliff knows his stuff. He has done his research. He has an immense amount of knowledge in his head. Wow. Doing amazing work all these years.
It’s amazing, this is the power of God! Immense wisdom and it’s so fascinating. I want to be able to stand up like this and preach the truth in the face of adversity, I struggle with this though. However, I know continuing to stand on my faith will cause me to have no choice but to submit and tell others about my greatest friend- Jesus Christ
I hope the young students in this video can now look back on this video, 24 years later, and realize this is when they became followers of Jesus.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to hear their testimonies
Was this filmed 24 years ago?
Wouldn't it be wonderful if Christianity didn't exist
I watched Cliffe in debate with Matt Dilihunty and Cliffe showed he is a quite weak and poor thinker.
@cameronadair5422 wouldn't it be wonderful if people could respect other people and their beliefs without trying to put others down and disrespect them?
🫵
Jesus vs Ego …no contest. He blew them all away so eloquently. This was fun to watch
This was super neat, the 90's graphics and music and clothing styles were almost as cool as the content of the messages Cliff gave..
Definitely haha agreed
This was 90s if not early 2000s
@@TrevorCanToo So he's been doing this for over 20 years? Wow
@@Conk_Creet over 40 years

“How convenient “ this was my favorite mic drop moment from Cliffe God bless him amen 🙏🏻
I loved that part too. It was priceless.
“Christianity is not a leap into la la land” jajajaja love this man 😂 Jesus is king !!
Dear Cliffe - God bless your service and lengthen your years so you continue teaching and serving His Name
I highly commend Cliffe for his patience with some of these people.
That’s what God calls us to be . The fruits of the spirit are love , joy , prace PATIENCE, kindness…… living the Christian life you strive to be more and more like God like Cliff said and patience is one of those ways
Me, too. I'm not the most patient person in the world, so some of the insults and games people play would be highly annoyjng to me. I don't naturally react well when people mock God, so I'd be having to pray for God to give me the grace to.
That girl really thought that she was going to prove us Christians wrong🤣
First 5-10Mins Of Him Talking Straight. Jesus & The Heaven’s Must be proud. I can’t wait to meet Cliffe. Man Of God👏🏽
Show me your God ?
@@Bugsy0333 if we are mammals right? coming from monkies right?
you shouldn't feel any pain in ur heart if u are cheated on.. if there is no God
but if u feel pain, there is ur proof that God connected us to love one another like he loves us
@@Tiger4ever89 Humans and monkeys are both primates. But humans are not descended from monkeys or any other primate living today. We do share a common ape ancestor with chimpanzees. It lived between 8 and 6 million years ago.
Feeling pain has nothing to do with a God concept unless you can prove otherwise?
@@Bugsy0333 i am not talking about physical pain.. i am talking about emotional pain.. u will probably hate many women for more years to come, just bcuz ur GF or Wife cheated u... and that alone justifies that Humans has nothing to do with any other animal here on earth..
2nd part is moral law.. without God we cannot make our own moral law.. and if we do.. u will have a different one compared to mine.. but above us there is a Moral Law who stays in our heart and tell us how to feel remorse, pitty, empathy etc...
3rd daily people experience revelations from God. i did too! and i was just like u a non-believer. GOD is real. another proof is love.. love wouldn't exist without God.. it will need only attraction and urge to have sex to multiply.. but we will be just like germs or viruses.. but with Love we have the power not just to multiply.. but to forgive one another... and that is from God also
@@Tiger4ever89 If this is the way you actually think then there is nothing i could say to ever change your mind therfore there in need need to continue.
Tke care stay safe.
I saw Cliffe bringing the heat and giving students the business at UC San Diego in 1992. He knows his Bible…bless him!
These classic vids remind me of when I saw Cliffe in 1983 on the UT campus. I had just become a Christian through the kind of evidence he talks about. I never asked him a question but I stood there for hours listening to his responses. God definitely used him to shape my faith.
Thanks for that anecdote. It's incredible to know he's been so consistent over the years
So cool, I often wonder how many people begin to think for themselves and find Jesus. These videos are so helpful
I’m a Christian yet listening to him makes me I need to learn more about Jesus. Thank youuu Pastor.
Thank you for continuing to post these videos. We all enjoy them.
Cliff is where the rubber meets the road. He gets unabashed, real-life questions, & takes them on in such a way as to not be offensive, when we all know, he is operating in not just the realm of a physical arena alone, but a spiritual one, where we also know the gospel is, offensive to a nonbeliever. What a blessing it is to see him hold his own. It becomes especially obvious when watching those individuals appearing to be academics, as they try to toss him curve balls, but can't strike him out. Bravo, & thanks you for sharing these enriching interactions, where we as lay people, can absorb, & hopefully replicate, effective responses to real objections that get tossed to belivers.
In what manner are any of the gospels an _offense_ to me?
@@theoskeptomai2535In response to the question stating (in what manner are the gospels an offense to me?) the statement was speaking about nonbelievers. I'm going to offer a response, assuming the question was NOT posed as disingenuous. If you are a "nonbeliever", I personally have never met a nonbeliever, who actually, fully accepts the claims of the gospel, of Jesus being God, where it was not offensive. We are not talking about a small "g" god, but Jesus was fully God, & fully man, sent as the only way, to fix, what is broken, which is, the message of the gospel.... May I ask, if you are currently checking out the claims of Christ, before accepting Him? Because the implications conneted with if He is God, if He is the one way to our redemption, we find a spiritual war exists within us, as self, wants to remain God & Lord of our actions, desitions, life, and therefore the claims from the gospel become offensive. The offense remains unless we come to a place where we see Him for who He is, & follow Him. I am sure you understand the internal conflict I speak of if you are a nonbeliever. The Gospel message compels us to pick one, & therein lies the offense if we are a nonbeliever. Again, if the question was NOT posed as disingenuous, then I hope you keep watching, & listening to the honest questions I here being asked, & Clif's responses offered up help, for us to move past whatever stumbling blocks exist in the spiritual warfare going on within us.
@@WellWhyNot200 I am an atheist (nonbeliever) and my question is asked sincerely. Please answer it.
In what manner are any of the gospels an _offense_ to me? I once believed absolutely in the truth of the gospel accounts. Now I realize that I had no good reason to believe these accounts to be historical. I realize they are fictitious narratives of a purely apologetic nature.
@@theoskeptomai2535 You now pose a second question, which is fine. Great, but the first question was given a detailed reply, & your projected hostility makes it pretty clear, that you do have an offense to the gospel, or else why would your second response be structured the way you have done? .... As to you second question listed in your reply, no forum response offers adiquite space to address it, without monopolizing all the digital 0 & 1 that the platform contains, but actually within this message of Clif's above, he takes a serious run at your second question. Perhaps you didn't play it all the way to the end & might go back & do so. To give an exhaustive reply to #2, volumes of publications address this fully.
@@WellWhyNot200 Have a good evening. Peace.
The excuses for NOT believing in God never change over the decades.
Woah Cliffes been doing this longer than ive been alive, glory to God.
I have never said this about anyone, but I am convinced this man is a MODERN DAY SAINT.
"I admire you Cliffe for trying "Very Hard" to get these children to seek Jesus Christ, when you "Know all they want to do is sin and think their getting away with it"! "I love how you have the knowledge and courage and faith in The Lord to keep testifying for them"! God bless you Cliffe! I bow down to you, for I can't do what you do. "My blessing and my love for you! May God watch over you! With 🙏's and ❤ from Mn.
(Wow, "No Likes"? "What ever did I do wrong"?? All I did was commend this Pastor for trying to win souls to the Lord and liking him for doing so! I'm not a troll...Jesus is my Savior and will be for eternity). I beg and pray for you that you take Jesus as your Savior and live in Heaven for eternity. (John 3 in the KJB).🙏's and ♥️.
These classics are incredible! Thank you for your ministry Cliffe 🙏
Man seeing a younger Cliffe threw me for a loop. Excellent stuff!
Really glad to find this Cliffe Classics series as I graduated from UT Austin in 1994. It really reminds me the old days in the campus listening to Cliffe speaking to the young minds back then. I have been back to my birthplace Hong Kong since my graduation. Thank you for your faithful work for the Lord all along.
This dude Cliff is so smart I love listening keep these coming
Well educated, great listener, and I love it when he starts getting worked up. Usually I hear "worked up" as an insult, but with Cliffe I mean it as an absolute compliment.
Haha......anyone who thinks this Clown Cliffe is smart are themselves clueless
The opening sequence is actually cute and nostalgic tbh, reminds me of my childhood back in the 2000's. :)
I wish we could go back.
The school assembly presentations of the early 2000s were true gems of our memory 😂
We must pray for the lost and the foolishness...please pray for these people ✝️🙏
Ayyy Cliffe. Started following you one year ago. Glad to see you reached that coveted 100k subscriber threshold. Keep it up!
The answers and the questions are the same ,nothing has changed. It is the condition of the heart. It will always be the condition of the heart.
Correct, fulfillment of prophecy in Ecclesiastes & John 3:19. God bless!
So True
What do you mean by "it is the condition of the heart"? I am an agnostic atheist. Please inform me as to the condition of my heart.
Theo Skeptomai is begging for attention again.
@@theoskeptomai2535 You just contradicted yourself Theo, please seek Jesus man…
Continue prayers for all , to continue to become following christ!❤❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤍🤍🤍
I love these throwback cliffe videos! Cliffe is so fluid with his words.
He is. Someday I hope to be able to explain the gospel with the clarity and wisdom that the Lord has given Cliff.
Thank you Jesus Christ for everything. Thank u very much for intellectually, spiritually, emotionally and in terms of understanding faith giving us so much fruitful debate, insight and knowledge. God really bless the Knechtle family and everybody who is participating and engaging.
❤🙏👍💪✌️🙏❤️🧿🏀💚
Yessss!! More Cliffe classics! I love seeing young Cliffe. I also like the old camera vibe.
YES I LOVE THE OLD VIDEOS. PLEASE POST MORE
People seem to be more intent on listening too! Less phones distracting & keeping them accountable. God bless!
Agreed. Both of you.
May the Good Lord bless and keep you Cliffe!
Never seen this one before. Thanks 😊 🙏🏾✝️💪🏾
Hope you like it! It has never been on RUclips.
@@givemeananswer if you happen to have any old, unseen footage at UCONN with the young Muslim lady, I'd love to see more of that.
Pls we want more of these classics. God bless you and your family.
Whooooo!!! Brother Cliffe?! You did amazing here!! Your apologetics and knowledge was sharp, clean, concise and to the point!! Praise God!!!
The Gospel The Gospel....so so compelling! Thank you Jesús!
This dude never misses
I miss these days, it's 2023 and we need more people like him, and sooner i know this video is going to be taken out because of the Truth it holds
Ignorance is bliss but bliss is not ignorant
23:54 is absolute gold
Hahaha 🤣
Only came for this
What does he say?
I love Cliff what a wise and knowledgeable man. God bless Cliff. All glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
The energy is incredible
He can be strongly passionate without it obliterating his patience and listening abilities.
Praise Jesus! Just an amazing person of Christ. So loving. Just captures the audience. Nothing like I’ve seen. I seen a lot of people getting disrespectful etc
Binging all of these clips, I keep wanting to find a comment from one of these students testifying that this is the moment they started to seek God truthfully. Still hoping to find one.
I like these classics. Cliffe is just tearing down arguments left, right, and center.
Teenage kids is one thing but college kids can be the worst. They all think they know more than they actually do just because they attend a university. They ask questions without sincerity but to ask questions so they can have a gotcha moment.
Imagine the chick telling the hen how to la eggs. These men have studied the bible. So many people have negative opinions of the bible but they haven't actually read it.
@@arkhamkillzone Reading is one thing but I hope young and old would laern to study the words in the Bible.
I prefer these people engaging with a pastor on these topics than most losers who said at home, watch porn and play video games all day.
@@--sly-- As a college student myself I'd say that You might have actually properly explained the attitude of College students. Specially the type of the ones who's speaking after 24:00
Exactly
I respect Cliffe so much for having the patience to continuously being interrupted by ignorant rude people and still deliver a loving messsge
Thank you, OG Cliff!
I love the videos it's really encouraging and edifying, my God my God why have you forsaken me, Psalm 22. Jesus knew the word of God because it's his word he knew what Psalm 22 referred to. Just read Psalm 22 and ask yourself who is that referring to?.
God bless brothers and sisters. Let's grow in the faith together. GOD bless
14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
this man needs to be in a movie
This man IS a movie!
Amen 🙏 He is a man of God 🙏
Great job clif
Old school Cliffe = savage 😂 👍
I love this one! Great arguments, I shared with my non believer friends💙
What did you consider to be a great argument?
The difference between Jesus and people is that people will let you down. Free will is a thing. Choice is real. Wants and desires are real, but so are moral right and wrong.
The best explanation for Job I've come across--Job was a very proud man, SO sure he was doing everything right. However, he was more focused on following the letter of the law without love in his heart. He was basically an Old Testament Pharisee.
And yet GOD said that Job was "righteous". Are proud people righteous?
@@jessebryant9233 Yes, Job was. He ticked all the boxes the way Pharisees did. "I pay this, I pray that" loudly on a street corner. They follow all the rules (as best they can) yet their HEART is not what it should be.
@@billyholly
But GOD said that Job was righteous and Job towed the line through all his trials. I'm going with God on this one over you.
Ngl I was trying to find some of the older older videos the other day so I’m grateful for this
I hope to be able to explain the Bible as good as this. Mercy! 🙏🏾
“he appears to be solid”
-professor
🤣🤣
I know, absolutely pathetic.
If you even think you're dumb think of this woman who ask medical records of 1st century lol 😂😂
😂😂😂 can’t forget that one
More more more classics please
The guy behind him made sure to watch out for his feet lol. Love the videos Cliff your a real inspiration
That last guy was such a powerful conversation. Cause Cliffe even admits its such a hard question to answer. And both of them were about as respectful as humans can possibly get.
Im so blessed. Thank you so much for this vidio. Its open a lot of understanding of my Lord Jesus Christ. How much He loves me. And but my trust in Him
Love how Cliffe shut down the false accusations against Jesus and the Bible
God is good 🙏🏼
Great answer sir, you give me teaching as a saw you preech may God Bless you and family and all of us
Praise the LORD
Am blessed to find this channel
"My God. My God..." was Jesus QUOTING the Old Testament. He knew what was going on, 100%.
“Cliff classics” awesome man!
Amazing simply amazing !!!
You guys should release a whole line of 90s era Cliffe sweaters.
I would buy one
@@t_hunder7016 right?!
Blessings dude
I was in 7th grade when this video was recorded. How time flies. I'm getting old 😓😟
I was exactly 40 in 1998, 64 now, the Beatles wrote a song about it.. "When I'm 64", lol. The great thing is, in my head, I still feel 18, but there's no way my body could do what an 18-year-old could do now 🙂
@@bonnie43uk Right. We grow, get old and die. And then judgement.
@@Lerian_V If this God exists Lerian, he's more than welcome to judge me, nothing I've done in my life has warranted me going to prison, if you treat people as you'd like to be treated you will do ok in life. Am i perfect?, heh, not by a long shot, none of us are.
@@bonnie43uk What do you mean by not being perfect? Do you mean that you've not kept all the Commandments? If yes, why should your lawlessness be rewarded instead of punished?
@@Lerian_V "not perfect" eg, i make mistakes sometimes and do things I regret. I've certainly not kept all the commandments, I'm not a Christian and don't agree with some of them, while other much more important moral commandments are not even included. I believe our wrongdoings belong to us and it's up to us to ask forgiveness from those we wrong, .. and they are not duty bound to forgive us if they feel it's not warranted, we hopefully learn from our mistakes, and our faults and mistakes make us stronger and build our character. Learning that our actions have consequences is a life long lesson, hopefully when we leave and our time is up, we are better people than when we were younger and we've learnt how to treat people with respect.
I didnt say anything about our lawlessness being rewarded, it's more a case of learning to be more tolerant and kind to others. I believe this is the only life we get, so it makes it more precious.
I certainly dont believe in any kind of eternal punishment... that is an abhorrent thought which I would wish upon my worst enemy.
It must be hard to answer questions to people set to tell your wrong and you let them talk and answer questions but they talk over you and keep trying to do an I got you when they have nothing but angry hate to offer.
You're doing important and good work Cliff keep it up I pray for you 🙏
It seems people were less socially akward in the late 90's....I wonder why?
Its great to see some old stuff
Great sweater
Cliffe cliffe cliffe you have a real challenge but never give up the reward is well worth it
Cliff being a man of God looks so pleasant….
Just subscribed to your Channel Cliff & I m grateful I found this Channel. 🙏
Awesome, praise God
Thank you Sir! I am blessed by your videos.
Woah, definitely a classic lol. Awesome to see something from a while ago
The woman at 24 minutes who thinks history is not real because she didn’t see it then says holocaust or slavery is not in that category
She was a perfect example of a person actively rejecting God and our Savior. Hope she changed.
@@spacecoastz4026 She has not rejected this mythological god. She has rejected your _claim_ that such a god exists.
I would rather hate myself than be prideful. Because then if I were to hate myself, that keeps me from being too prideful and ignorant.

Thanks Dr. Clif
Yeah please, i want to see more of that
God bless you Ptr Cliffe❤

Wow, where have you been all my life? Thank you for being so clear
Most don't know that Psalms 22 is actually a foreshadowing of Jesus's crucifixition and it was written hundreds of years before crucifixition was even a form of execution.
@@ChrisTheKing172 That's an interesting claim. What evidence do you have to support it?
@@ChrisTheKing172 You said all of the "so-called" prophecies in the Bible lack specific details. Where is the evidence to back the claim you made?
@@jaylenthompson9238 Jaylen can you give me a prophecy in the bible that has very specific details that could not be made to fit a later event. The writers of the New Testament would have had access to the Old Testament, they read Psalms, and weaved it into the story of Jesus. You can plant a seed, and it can take root, and turn into a massive tree.
@@bonnie43uk Isaiah 7:14 - Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel (God with us)
@@jaylenthompson9238 The original text does not mention a virgin, and it goes without saying Jesus is not mentioned. "therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign: the maiden is with child and she will bear a son, and will call his name Immanuel"
The second guy, Lord. I pray that the confusion of his mind has been delivered. He needs to read the New Testament so that he can understand where the Pastor was coming from. Sheesh, Pastor Cliffe is a good one.
