@@Looking_For_That_Blessed_Hope7 Heaven and hell arnet just places you go when you die they are apart of our everyday life. You will never even be able to see true happiness until you accept god. Having faith in god can bring happiness to the most lonely poor beggar on the earth and yet the tech billionaire that owns everything they ever wanted are miserable because they dont know god.
“If Christianity were true, would you believe in it?” That’s a brilliant question. Most people want to do their own thing in this life. That’s the truth.
anees miah You don’t have a single clue as to what will happen on judgement day because you don’t know the future. Bro, the Koran was written 5 hundred years after Jesus rose from the grave. It’s basically a changed copy of the Bible; we don’t believe anything it says, period. Christians celebrate Jesus not only because he died for humanity but also because billions of people can feel his love, peace, joy TODAY! Millions of people today can testify to you how Jesus has physically, mentally spiritually healed them, TODAY!
I got saved in a room by myself. I had no knowledge of who jesus was or who God was. It was strange thinking about it now. Now i know a lot of course, but it's strange that someone could ask me back then, "whos jesus" and I would literally be like, "i actually dont know". I had deaf ears to everything. Anyways, called out, was shown the holy spirit, got filled with pure love, changed my life forever. Long live our King.
@here's my opinion. Did you read this verses too? 💡Gospel of John 14 :28 My father is greater than I. 💡Gospel of John 10: 29 My Father is greater than all. 💡Gospel of Matthew 12: 28 I cast out devils by the spirit of God......... 💡Gospel of luke 11:20 ...... I with the finger of God cast out devils 💡 John 17:3 “Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” 💡Gospel of John 5:30 I can of my own self do nothing: as here, I judge, and my judgement is just; because I seek not mine on will, but the will of the Father, which hath sent me May the Only True God guid us all and show us the truth 😇🤲👏 Amen! As Jesus peace be upon him says all the time: 💡 John 17:3 (NIV) “Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”
@@joesephlebon I see that you've left out the places where Jesus has said that He and the Father are one and that He's the Alpha and the Omega and even the Almighty.
@john hemnath, ♥️The verses that I sent you are the saying of Jesus himself, and they are Cristal Clear 😇. Now let’s talk about the verses that you pointed 🤗
🔴 Is to be one with God mean that’s you and God are one God? Let’s read this verses: 💡 John 17:21 (KJV) that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. 💡 John 17:11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of[b] your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. 💡 John 17:22-23 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one. I in them and you in me-so that they may be brought to complete unity. 🔶Is this oneness makes the 12 disciples One God, the same Glory that Jesus receives from God he shares it and gives it to disciples too. So the Oneness with God and Sharing the same Glory will makes the Disciples Gods too? So they will not be 3 in 1, but (3+12) in 1 ? 🤔 use the same logique, why you select Divinity for Jesus and not for disciples?🤔 🔴When Jesus says, I and My father are one, I say Amen to that, all prophets are one with God, they don’t speak from theirselves. They speak what God ask them to speak and preach. 👉Jesus peace be upon him and God they were one in the purpose
@john hemnath, 🔴 Is to be Alpha and Omega makes someone God? 🔶There is an other man (Melchizedek the Priest) in the Bible, who has no beginning and no end, without Father or a Mother and without genealogy. He event meet Abraham. And he wasn’t God. ❓Is Jesus has a mother ? Yes 🔆Is Melchizedek has a father or a mother? No ❓Is Jesus has genealogy? Yes 🔆Is Melchizedek has a genealogy? No 💡Hebrews 7:1-3 (Melchizedek the Priest) This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, the name Melchizedek means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, resembling the Son of God, he remains a priest forever. 👉 Melchizedek is without beginning of days or end of life, is he God too?
"Most people are not on a "truth" quest, they are on a "happiness" quest. Great quote! If Christianity was proven to be true, would you want to become a Christian? If the answer is "no" then they have a moral problem, not an intellectual one. This agrees with scripture - John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light Great stuff!
Each religion and the followers each religion will tell you that their religions change their life, they will tell you that they are better than before, and that they fell more happy :) But this is not criteria, the happiness you can find it without religion, it’s depend what the people are searching for. This is objectif. The only way to know about the religion is to study their teaching, and study their Book. God is almighty, so his teaching and his book should be perfect! Pure message without any adding, removing,...
@Rafael Vargas The Quran gives to us a challenge, the challenge come directly from God almighty. The Quran has his own challenge if you want to test his authenticity, example : 💡Quran [4:82] (Surah An-Nisa) “Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an? If it had been from [any] other than Allah, they would have found within it much contradiction” No one until now find any contradiction on the Quran and this is from 1400 years ago :) And the Quran is one (with 7 Hourouf:recitations) for all Muslims, no change, no adding, no mistakes from the prophet time Muhammad until now. Some claim that they have found contradiction and mistakes on the Quran. And just because they don’t understand Arabic and they don’t understand the meaning of the word. They base their claim on the traduction of the Quran :) So if the Quran is without any contradiction, and the teaching of Islam is the continuity of all other prophets, the message is the same. - God is One - Submition to Only the almighty God ❤️Peace be upon you my friend May the Only true God guide us all and show us the truth 😇👏🤲 Amen
Jesus said in Luke 12:48: “Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.” Basically the more we KNOW, the more we are ACCOUNTABLE for!
Yep, Lazarus and the rich man. I read that passage often. "Be there few who find it." It truly is a narrow way. As long as we stay on that narrow path and know God we wont be locked out of the wedding feast. 1-12-2021
Man, right on the target of my sinful heart. So often I choose my own happiness over God because that's wayy more convenient. Have mercy on me Lord and give me a new heart 🙏🙏 Thank You and praise You!
The "99% are hostile to God" statement is absolutely true, and biblically supported, e.g. " 13 For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it," - Matthew 7:13-14. Finding the small gate and narrow road means to foresake oneself, knowing that everything truly is - all about God. Without Christ, we are nothing.
The bible is fictional mythology written by man. Jesus is a plagiarized Egyptian myth fabricated by Rome for political propaganda. Faith isn't fact you gullible fool.
It is even more supported by John 3: 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light...
If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair. -C.S. Lewis
When I lived in darkness I didn’t want my friends to tell me to get save I would get annoyed but they didn’t know I was annoyed. I knew in my heart there is a God I just wasn’t ready for GOD I knew getting drunk wasn’t a good thing because It clouds your judgement. I also knew having sex with someone other than your husband just wasn’t right especially if he belong to someone else. I hated lying but I did it anyway especially to get out of situation. And I loved partying listening to Vulgar music. Dancing up on strange men. Even At a young age I won’t go to church New Year eve and then go partying I wasn’t playing that either I’m staying in this world fully or I am going to choose God I knew I can’t have both so I choose the world happiness which is temporary hoping that one day I’ll be fully ready because it’s either I’m in or out I don’t half step anything. I’m just blessed now to know I was given that chance to redeem myself. I have finally found the love Peace and rightful living I’ve been needing.
Dennis Chang I used to be an atheist also. (Quick look at the commandments). I loved working on Sundays, dishonouring my parents and making graven images. I loved it. Couldn’t get enough of it.
@ welcome to the gotcha god you created, the bible made fun of people like you, cut down a tree, one branch they cooked supper, the other branch they made into a god and worshipped it, don't quit me now, your on a roll, your a lot of fun, fool!
I searched so many years for an answer to this question. Frank is the only one who's been able to give me a convincing response. "They wouldn't have searched for God anyway". Makes total sense. Bless you Frank.
No. God would find a way to give the chance of salvation. There are people that have the gospel in them in their hearts without knowing Jesus or the Bible but the teaching in the spirit dwells in them. I learned that from Bro. Eli Soriano's teaching.
This is true I have a friend we both use to do drugs, party, steal and do a lot of crazy things but In the end we both still felt like something was still missing. We both knew God but just weren’t ready to walk in the ways of Jesus Christ. I got tired of living that life and wanted something better so I accept Jesus Christ as my savior and I got convicted that day and the power of the Holy Spirit filled me it was like nothing I’ve ever felt before right from that day my addiction and mindset changed I told my friend that the chain’s of bondage is broken and I feel free. He knew everything what I was saying but it looked like he just wasn’t ready for change and kept on doing the sinful things. Even though he too knew something was still missing.
@ayo A, I am really happy that you stoped making sins, and you know and you believe that they are an almighty God.

❤️May the Only True God guide us all and show us the truth ❤️ God Allah in the Quran will never punish a people until he send them a messenger. 💡Quran 17:15 Whoever is guided is only guided for [the benefit of] his soul. And whoever errs only errs against it. And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And never would We punish until We sent a messenger.
Great video and explanation. Roman's 1 and 2 explains this. We are judged by what we know. For those who know the law they will be judged by the law. For those who dont know they will be judged by their conscience. There are very few people in the world who hasn't heard the gospel now. Very few people groups have not heard. I heard 2 people at my job talking about Jesus a few days ago. They don't believe in him but I was amazed how informed they were about what the gospel is. People know. They just choose to not believe. God bless
That's not true and that's not what it says and that's not what he said in his response in this video. Paraphrasing what Acts 26 says, is that all those non-believing people who haven't been formally preach the word of the Bible are unsaved and Unworthy of salvation. It is used as an explanation for the believer that clearly knows that it's wrong and unjust to punish somebody for ever for not hearing the gospel. Acts 26 does three things. 1 it relieves the Believers conscience knowing that all those unjustly convicted people deserve it. 2 it reinforces the doctrine of unbelief is punishable by Eternal and everlasting punishment.3 it dehumanizes the "Savages" who haven't heard the good news, so that you good believers can treat them any way you want, to the point of slavery or genocide. You're a believer, I get it you're convinced , it doesn't mean you're right
@@frankfontaine5604 If you look at the demographics, Christianity has a 100% penetration rate, while Islam or any other religion doesn't have it.And you will only see preachers all over the world preaching about Jesus not about fake gods like allah! Even the people living in India knows in detail about lord Jesus, in a place where Christianity is only 2.5% of the total population !
That's exactly right. We are judged by what we know. So if someone rejects what little knowledge they have about God, why would God reveal more to them?
Yes, indeed. The people who are so fast to cast others into eternal fire in the name of god, are really no different from the scribes and Pharisees that rejected Jesus because he didn't fit into their box. Sincerity is the key. To truly repent you must be sincere. It does not say in order to repent you must follow every written line perfectly. These people that say you must know the name "Jesus", they don't say "or it's transliterations". Because they don't want you to believe in the entity of god. They want you to worship the Jesus they think is right. Why do they not say you must know the name he was actually born with if it's that important?
I asked my Mum this and she replied "I hate God because my parents died." When I said their sin caused them to die as Well as yours and mine as we've sinned against a Holy and Just God...she got absolutely furious and refuses to even hear about Jesus! She told me that it's me who was the black sheep of the family therefore if anything I need God's forgiveness, not her or her parents..wow..Frank not the nail on the head with this one. Although I'll always love my Mum, I love God so much more and trust in him alone! May Jesus bless you.
I don't get why everyone blames God for death , sickness , evil acts. Blame satan, blame humanity , blame the lazy, comfortable Christians (including me😢) , but don't blame God . . . . . . . . . . . but then, I'm born again , I know the Lord Jesus and love Him. ❤️✝️🙏
Also heard stories that random people who didn't know the gospel or anything about Christ...Jesus appears to them in visions, dreams, or just a random person starts talking to them about Him.
@wiskyBOY123 🔶Visions, dreams, hallucination are all subjectif. We don’t have to follow our dreams. The dreams could be from Satan, to let you worship Jesus beside the Only True God! So please wake up! 🌹♥️
@@rhinestonecowboy8032 There's literally no proof that those people were schizophrenic. Heck, you're exactly one of those people that Frank was talking about. You don't care about the truth, you just wanna do your own thing and think life centers around you.
@@aarondowd7346 he is saying as the bible does. That God looks at the heart of the man. It is inline with what Jesus himself said in John 2:23Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name when they saw the signs which He did. 24But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men, 25and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man. He knew what was in their heart. They did not want him. They wanted what he could give, (happiness) and he would have no part in such people.
This one is so uplifting! I’ve been on a truth quest from a very young age and try hard to put everything else behind this search. I’m stunned talking to those people that aren’t searching for truth. I subbed to your channel.
That's by far the best response to that classic question that I've ever heard. And the audience proved him right by their own vote. "He has saved us and called us to a holy life-not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time" 2 Timothy 1:9
A truth so powerful it hurts :'( I have family who even if they knew wouldn't turn around. And they have it available. I've had family literally say they rather go to hell. No, being a Christian and knowing the TRUTH means we have joy, even amidst a heart that is shattered and broken because we go somewhere we cannot take everyone we love because of free will. And yet without free will we couldn't know true love.
That last part was powerful. I have given in to my own selfish thoughts many times. But whenever I realize I've messed up, I always bring my fears, doubts, and regrets to God. I never want to be someone who turns my back on Him for too long. We're all flawed people who need the grace and kindness of our loving Father.
@Daines L. Nelly , 🔶As we know Jesus preached from his own gospel, and not from the “Bibles” that we have today. The Bible that we have nowadays is A collections of some books, bibliography of Jesus, stories, poems, letters,... and Jesus never preached this book or knew its existence! 🔶The English word "Bible" comes from bíblia in Latin and bíblos in Greek. The term means books. So how are you sure that the Gospel of Jesus has all books? 📕66 books in the Protestant 📘73 books in the Catholic 📙86 books in the Orthodox 📗76 books in the Charismatic
19. *Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,* baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20. *Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:* and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matthew 28:19,20) Because we MUST PREACH. First Apostles got ot Rome, India, Armenia, we HAVE TO preach to people so they will know.
Павел Коровин Very true. And think about this. Those who have been given the light and the truth of the gospel and reject it...they will have the more severe judgment. A very sobering thought.
We HAVE TO or what? The law of God is written on their hearts. I'm all for evangelism but the scriptures don't say HAVE TO, that's man's doctrine you're bringing to the table. Instead of HAVE TO, we GET TO.
@@arcguardian 16. For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: *for necessity is laid upon me;* yea, *woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!* (1 Corinthians 9:16) You do understand why this is important? You are saved becuase someone did oreached to you, or did something for you, and may be they too did not really wante that. May be they had problems. All spread of gospel is becuase of Apotles and first christians, they were all killed for that. Because it is about people's lives and eternity. Yeas, we have to, and God will provide.
@@arcguardian well I guess you're right, you don't have to save a person walking off a cliff, or getting hit by a car, or a burning house fire. But Jesus tought that one should have pity and compassion for ones neighbor. Take the good Samaritan story told by Jesus for example in Luke 10:25-37. The teacher of the law of Moses asked Jesus how he could obtain eternal life. Jesus affirmed two things; to love God with all your heart, strength and soul, and to love your neighbor as yourself. When you do not preach the word of God to others around you (neighbor), you are not loving them as you would your own self. If you aren't attempting to save your neighbor than you clearly do not have love for them like you love yourself. Therefore the person you are responding to isn't brining "man's doctrine" to the table.
It's amazing how powerful this question is. The problem is that the answers really stink. If all you need to do is believe in God, then why do you need jesus? The whole point of having to believe in him is because he supposedly died for our sins and if you don't believe in him you can't benefit from his sacrifice. This obviously is a big problem. Why can't anyone just admit this makes no sense? So all the billions of people that came before jesus were somehow saved just by believing in God? Then the obvious question is why can't we do the same thing? Every Muslim and jew who also believe in God should be automatically going to heaven too. I just wish these people doing apologetics would stop giving these nonsensical answers pretending that it makes sense.
Exactly. If it is true that before Christ, man was saved by their simple faith in 'God', but after Christ, the rules suddenly changed and now *only* those who know *Christ alone* are saved, the supposed 'good news' is actually *bad news* for a many millions of people - seemingly overnight. What the scriptures tell us is that 'faith in Christ' is the only **guaranteed* way to the Father. But it is not the 'only way'. Granted, the work of Christ is still the *only* means by which *anyone* is saved. But for those who never heard the gospel, their faith, humility, and acknowledgement of 'God' is sufficient that they may still be 'beneficiaries' of Christ's atonement. If you are drowning in an ocean and someone reaches his hand in to save you, you don't necessarily need to know his name or anything else about him in order to grab onto him and be pulled to safety. All you have to do is be willing to reach out your hand and acknowledge he's there to help you.
@@N.i.E.M.O My friend, so you are telling me then that the 1.5 billion muslims in this world and the millions of jews who believe in God will be "saved" just like any Christian? I understand you are saying this because this would answer the question and make sense. However, this is not Christianity at all. Faith in Christ is the only way to be saved because it is only by faith in Christ that we can be counted righteous in God’s sight (Gal. 2:16). It is only by faith in Christ that we can be reconciled to God (Rom. 5:9-11). It is only by faith in Christ that we can receive eternal life (John 3:16). Jesus is the only mediator between God and man (1 Tim. 2:5). Your analogy to a drowning man makes so much sense but again, this is not christianity. If you don't know the man saving you, you will drown in christianity. You are just strengthening the problem even more
@@nothingbutthetruth613 I know this will come as as blasphemous to many, but it's not about adhering to 'Christianity'. It's not about any allegiance to any group of men or self-proclaimed 'church'. What we we seek is the Truth. And the Truth goes beyond any 'religion'. Christ said he is the only way. This is true. Without his sacrifice, there is no no way for anyone to be washed of their sins. Christ died for humanity - God himself taking on flesh in order to save his prized creation. This is the *Good News* - that the path to salvation lies in humility, selflessness, and the love of God. And how does one express their love for God? By "following (his) commandments". And how does one follow his commandments? By "loving your neighbor as yourself". Because when we do good unto our neighbor, we do good unto Christ, and when we do evil unto our neighbor, we do evil unto Christ. The scriptures tells us that that only way to be *sure* that we will inherit the kingdom of God is by placing our faith in Christ and following in his ways. But that is the only **assured** way to God. The 'Good News'. Before Christ, and after Christ, man was judged by what knowledge they were afforded in life and by their humility, their repentance, the content of their heart. We are judged by what we did with what we were given in life - not by what we weren't. God's ways are above our ways - but he has told us that he is a God of love and he is just. Not all people who inherit eternal life will be 'Christians' ... any more than all self-proclaimed 'Christians' will inherit eternal life. This is not to say that there are 'multiple paths to God'. Not at all. But it is possible that one can be a 'benefactor' of Christ's sacrifice without even knowing his name, so long as they synchronize with his teaching with genuineness, sincerity, and humility in their heart. The 'Good News' isn't necessarily about 'converting' anyone to 'Christianity' any more than it was about forcing gentiles to adopt Jewish customs. It is about revealing the clear path to salvation. It is revealing the 'mystery', the true God - so no one would have to live in doubt, worshipping a God they want to know, but don't.
This is one of those hard ones. Because we know everyone will stand before Him and he is just. So the judgement will be made accordingly. It’s isn’t our job to make the judgement. It’s our job to love and share.
This simple answer to this questions is found in Romans 2:12-16. The short answer: men inherently know right from wrong because God has written it on their conscience. So even if they have never heard of Jesus, God will judge them according to their conscience. Their conscience will either condemn or excuse them. We know that God is fair and just and judges rightly. It’s very rare in our modern day to see a remote group who have never heard the Gospel though. Read the following scriptures. God's Judgment and the Law 12 For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.
Matthew 24:14 And the gospel about the kingdom WILL BE PREACHED THROUGH ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS TO ALL NATIONS, and then the end will come. In other words, the end won’t come unless all kinds of people on this earth have been witnessed to. Don’t worry God has it all figured out already.
I truly believe that if someone, no matter where in the world, is truly seeking God, He will reveal Himself to that person. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.
Love ya Frank! You’re a real Christian, spreading truth in love. You’ve helped me out tremendously in my personal walk with the good Lord and I appreciate you soo much! 🙂
This may be hard for a lot of folks to wrap their mind around but it really IS ok to sometimes simply say "I don't know". Making it up as we go along in order to always appear to have all the answers is not honest.
For those still wondering if Jesus is God, ask yourself.... 'Can any one persons death pay for the sins of the world?" The answer is no... only the sacrifice of God Himself could.
each person will pay for their own sin. That is a fair statement to me. Sacrificing someones life for another ones sin makes no sense at all. Plus, that is all it takes? believing in jesus as god and savior will clear you of all sins???? What kind of justice is that? if I wronged someone, I can just believe in Christ and free of any fault?
Zubair Fadel it’s not just believing in his name but loving him deeply. It’s not just someone it was God as flesh that died for the sins of mankind. When you open the Bible and try to study the gospels you will c and understand. God put himself into earth to conquer death.
But it only answers the question of not hearing about christ, what about people who haven't heard of God. I think his comment that everyone knows that there is a god is not only untrue but nicely allows him to not answer that question. What happens to those who never hear about God?
OMG 3:00 so god pre made non believers in remote areas so he could condemn them for eternity. Faith isn't fact you gullible delusional fool. The bible is fictional mythology written by man.
Most of Native Americans were absolutely seeking God and were nothing but an obstacle for those who believed they held the truth. I believe God will save man who never heard Christ by their conciousness because the fact is not all hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Watching frank answering this question, I said oh God I'm grateful for this man I wish Frank never dies lol but that's impossible It my prayers that someone inherit this great gift and mantle
Samuel Sarbah:According to Frank in a few other videos, “people don’t die, they just change locations”. He uses this phrase to answer questions with respect to biblical genocide. So you have your wish, Frank will never die but will only change locations.
NicoCoco:I was born and raised in a Christian home and so am very familiar with Christian culture. Although I do not find the evidence of Jesus’ resurrection convincing, I try and live my life like it were true. What I mean is that I try and love my neighbor, respect others and do what is “good”. Without a central tenet to live by, it is easy to become nihilistic. You might call me a religious fictionalist. I am fascinated with Frank’s arguments for morality and disagree wholeheartedly that without god, morality is just an “opinion”. Cosmic Skeptic and Rationality Rules are atheist channels that explores this concept further. I think I watch Frank hoping he’ll convince me of the belief I had for over 40 years - that Jesus was resurrected. What I end up seeing most often, is Frank using verbal gymnastics to explain away things like biblical genocide (the flood, midianites), slavery, the apparent absence of the supernatural today and eternal conscious torment. I also watch Frank to see how Christians respond to his videos and am genuinely fascinated in their responses and the many fallacies they use to justify their belief. I’m also interested in the way in which Christians equivocate “truth” with “my belief is correct” and can’t possibly fathom that some people are genuinely searching, like me, but just aren’t convinced. I don’t think you choose to believe something - you’re either convinced or you’re not just as you’re not convinced of Buddhism, Hinduism or Islam. Hope that makes sense to you.
No matter what Frank Turek says, no matter what anyone says, the entire concept of Jesus allegedly "sacrificing" himself and that having any purpose or providing any significance, is a concept that has a plethora of logical problems. That isn't to say that a person can't concoct some explanation. But to the objective person those problems remain.
@Desire Of All Nations The problems of Jesus's alleged sacrifice depend on the religious belief. Is Jesus a human-looking incarnation of God on earth? If that is the case then Jesus is sacrificing himself to himself, a needless sacrifice and illogical. If God is omnipotent, then he can change the direction of all things, making a sacrifice unnecessary. Is Jesus really sacrificing himself at all, given that he knows he is going to heaven? If a kid takes the blame for breaking a window, an act of which he is not actually guilty, is taking the blame a sacrifice if the kid is then treated to a hot fudge sundae?
Desire Of All Nations: So let’s see, god created people, who He KNEW would sin before he created them. So god (who is somehow ALSO Jesus), knows beforehand that He will have to sacrifice himself TO himself to appease himself for his own screwed up creation... Now that I wrote that I think it all makes perfect sense! WOW!!!!!! I’m SAVED from the hell that Jesus created to eternally torture those people he created who he KNEW would burn in eternity because he never bothered to reveal himself to them!! Genius!!!!
@Desire Of All Nations You're just another apologist who lacks critical thinking and the inability to let objective arguments penetrate you because of the powerful indoctrination befalling you. It's pure dissonance on your part. This story about this Jesus man are embellishments and tall tales of primitive people akin to our current tells of: Spiderman, Batman, Superman, X-Men, Avengers. You would think I was crazy if I walked around and told you how much Superman loves you and died for you in the movie "Batman vs. Superman", well this is what I think of you Christians. You're brainwashed as children or you have some emotional problems that you aren't aware of so you appeal to something outside of yourself because you can't handle the harsh reality of this world.
Desire Of All Nations : you obviously suffer from deluded thinking. If Jesus was the OT god who exactly was the Most High God? You believe in TWO gods my friend. Hell? Read revelation. Jesus sacrificed Himself to Himself to Pay for “our” sins. That’s appeasement. Your brain is so scrambled you can’t think straight. I pity you
It must be pointed out that we as Christians are not judges of yhe heart, but doers of the Great Commision. We bring the Gospel, and if those we bring it to, respond with apathy, mockery, or even hostility, then we leave them be. Otherwise we must continue building meaningful relationships, being true friends, and earning the love and respect of our communities. So that they will hear us when we speak the truth.
During times of serious thought I think: In my Walk or could it be "walk" I have with the Lord? I catch myself regularly asking GOD to please help me to Repent and Believe. To help me be humble, to love others as I love myself, to genuinely reach out to others with the Gospel, to Glorify Him, to Fear Him, to obey Him because I love Him in JESUS CHRIST. I ask this because when I look at myself (which I do quite often) I'm not striding to do all that He says. Why? Could it be because I'm hanging onto my lifestyle that I'm hoping to bring me happiness? Am I chasing what it is I want rather what GOD commands me to which is right and good? In my struggle with self (sin) I to know what it is GOD has done for me thru JESUS CHRIST.... despite Him knowing how I am? He still paid my sin debt in His own lifes blood.... anyway?? How could I not ask Him to help me? Look what he has done for mankind's sin. So when it's all said and done it's not primarily myself who I should be looking at but at.... * JESUS CHRIST *
I’ve heard Frank Turek ask the question regarding Christianity in several videos. “If you had undeniable proof that Christianity were true, would you become a Christian?” That’s a great question. Here’s a question for Christians you rarely hear. “If there was undeniable proof that Christ was not resurrected, would you stop believing in the tenets of Christianity? Would you live your life any differently than you are living it now?”
@ Jason A Yes I would And in all honesty I ask myself that question and the answer is yes because that’s just how I am created. To believe in the CREATOR takes heart and a whole lot of trust. It’s actually easier to not believe. It makes for simpler life. My heart is made to love forgive be kind helpful truth honesty. I also said to myself if I’m the only person on this planet earth believe in the ALMIGHTY I’m fine I’ll just be the cheese that stand alone. I just can’t be any other way so until my very last breath I’ll always trust in the THE MOST HIGH no matter what’s going on with me or around me.
In 2019 we have undeniable proof that Christ was resurrected. On judgement day you'll have no excuse if you don't repent and believe the gospel. That's because of the amount of light that you have, the Bible so easy to purchase, you can even get it for free online, the outstanding archaelogical research available just at a simple click of a button. As Jesus said, it's gonna be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgement, than for people living in 2019. Because they didn't as much light as the world has nowadays, especially in western countries where you don't get beheaded for being a christian (yet, the time will come when that's gonna happen here as well).
Chosen D Joseph:My question was for the purpose of a thought experiment only. I’m not quite clear from your answer but it sounds like you would not change your belief?
Why You Need My Name:I disagree wholeheartedly that we have undeniable proof of Jesus’ resurrection. I’d rather not get into my reasons yet but, with all due respect, you did not answer the question. Frank posits non-believers the opposite question all the time and my answer is yes, I would believe. Are you brave enough to answer the opposite question? Would you stop believing if there was proof that the resurrection did not happen? Would you then behave any differently?
Why You Need My Name:I’m disappointed you haven’t had time to answer my follow up question and that very few Christians have responded to my initial question. If you’re proselytizing to someone about Christianity, you are asking them to temporarily suspend their worldview and consider yours. It is only fair that you are open to the same line of questioning.
"Being a Christian is inconvenient, you'd rather do your own thing too wouldn't you?" I just got stabbed with these words. Thanks Doc. Jesus is the only way.
@ O T I'm a Christian too but what turns a lot of people off is people saying that they know for a fact what happens to us when we die. Nobody can say for a hundred percent guarantee that they know what happens to us when we die. All we can say is that we choose to believe one thing or another. So the most honest answer you can give somebody is to say that this is what I believe to be true. Secondly nobody can tell you what truth is. They can only tell you their perception of the truth. Just as convinced as you are that you are right that is exactly the level of conviction that Muslims have. I believe that they are mistaken but they cannot display any more evidence than I can. So the most honest answer you can give someone is to Simply say this is what I believe to be true. That is why people are called believers.
@Blank Man Truth be told. I trust in the Creator as I look around at the stars the sun the moon the sky the ocean the trees it has to come from somewhere it didn’t just happen. And when I have the emotion to love to laugh to cry both when I’m happy and sad, Someone Higher than me did that got me. They’re building robots that talks that look humanlike, but they don’t have emotions they only say and do limited things and if they take out the batteries they can’t talk anymore.
I think it’s a myth that certain ppl will never hear the gospel. According to the following scripture, all ppl (nations) will hear the gospel bf the end comes. “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matt 24:14
@@Allen_Sherry Really? Ill give you one example of many. The first appearance of Jesus to his disciples in Luke 24 is Jerusalem. In Matthew 28 its Galilee. Neither gospel leaves any time for the first appearance to be anywhere else. There can only be one first appearance.
I am the 1 out of 99. I would love to be a Christian again, but remain unconvinced. I read my Bible a lot and when I was a Christian I pray all the time for God to show me the way in my studies. Still seeking.
Tammy Powell you are correct, but the question is will he look the same ? And will he be named Jesus ? Will he come from the sky or is he already here possibly in the comments or walking around ?
What about those who died in Asia Africa and America's before the gospel reached them? My argument is that since ancient times good has always existed alongside evil just like in our modern times. There were those who believed in God and chose to do right by God while the rest chose to practice witchcraft, sorcery, magic, divination and idol worship as they sought to submit to their carnal desires. I believe God reveals himself to people in different ways just like he used to during the time of Moses, abraham and other prophets but people chose to do evil due to their sinful nature just like in our modern times. There's nothing new under the sun.
"What about those who died in Asia Africa and America's before the gospel reached them?" Dr. Turek covered this, in this particular video. The same concept applies to all humans, across the history of humans, from Adam until the day that Christ returns.
When he said "think of someone you know who is on a truth quest", I immediately thought of the woman I love who is a muslim but has told me multiple times when I share my beliefs as a follower of Christ with her, that she only wants to find the truth and hasn't stopped reading the bible with me since we met. Prayers for her would be appreciated. God bless you all
I've found that the "what about the natives" question is a tactic to criticize the gospel and not about a real care for the natives. The question is what will you do with the knowledge of Christ? Not what will someone else do with it.

Joeseph Lebon possibly .... I don’t know what’s right and wrong. I honestly don’t think anyone does . But I think that is a possibility . To me all that matters is being connected with God (higher power)
The Bible is very clear on this point: "Seek God with all your heart soul and mind and you WILL find him" I was backsliding for 30 years and was ruining my life. I was saved at 7 years old but over the years turned away. But after much prayer and truly seeking God he showed up in my life. I am now back in church and living my life for Jesus. I have received certainly of my eternal destination. And again the Peace that passes all understanding is in my heart. Thank you Heavenly Father for your mercy. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for your love for us. And thank you Holy Spirit for convicting my heart. ✝️
All people are accountable to God whether or not they have “heard about Him.” The Bible tells us that God has clearly revealed Himself in nature (Romans 1:20) and in the hearts of people (Ecclesiastes 3:11). The problem is that the human race is sinful; we all reject this knowledge of God and rebel against Him (Romans 1:21-23). If it were not for God's grace, we would be given over to the sinful desires of our hearts, allowing us to discover how useless and miserable life is apart from Him. He does this for those who continually reject Him (Romans 1:24-32).
Carl Valentine because our God is alive and He is real. You can ask Him to yanno he hears everything you think and he knows your desires. If you are searching for the truth absolute truth, wouldn’t you want to investigate a person like Jesus, who claimed to be the Truth? Ask him, Jesus if you are who oh say you are, please show me, Amen. Hope this helps and I hope you this touches your heart( : Godbless
He just spoke out on what he thinks is a justified explanation. Would've been more logical if he pulled out some verses on what happens to disbelievers or apostates for not believing.
People are on a feelgoodway not on a truthway. Thats so true! There is only one way to God! Jesus said: I am THE WAY, the truth and the life, noone comes to the father but through me.
Maybe your false god but not to a real God when you seek God you find God and there is many ways to God actually there's not one way and if it was one way it wouldn't be the Jesus guy in fact he's one way to Hell by your own standard the one with destruction and we've seen that consistently John 3:16 and John 14:6 has no power because we know the author of John has an enormous Jesus worshiping agenda and conflicts with Mark Matthew and Luke so you can't just dance around assuming it's correct when the Jesus guy destroys himself and it was fake message has been torn apart that means everyone not only should reject it but not know about this is well as eraser from their minds and be set free and come to heaven on their own cuz people save themselves it's like God saves people that means he forgives their sins when they fix themselves real forgiveness not fake agree that Christianity is corrupted I'm challengingly for 2,000 years or less
This is one question that kinda ate at me, and I was on my lawnmower, thinking about this, and I believe the Lord spoke to me, " do you believe God is Just?" And I do, and that answered it for me. I don't have to worry, God is just and will do what is right in the earth
What about those who never heard of Christ... Paul answers this question indirectly in Romans 2: 12-16 12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.
Does this mean that people who are righteous and even though we all sin they do good and they’ve never had a chance to believe in god could go to heaven?
@@dairy7087 That's what is implied, yes. So for instance, if you have never heard of the Church, and you live in a secluded place not of your own doing, but you do moral and good things, God will always know and he will judge you accordingly. Especially if you seek out God despite not being taught about him.
@@dairy7087 But if you were raised and taught about Christ and actively and consciously rebel against God and his teachings, and you also choose to never come back, then you have made the CHOICE to sin and go against what you already know. God is just and judges accordingly 🙏
In scripture there is mention of a place called Sheol and Abraham's bosom. The old testament saints were sent to Abraham's bosom and the unsaved went to sheol. After Jesus descended, he took the old testament saints with Him to Heaven. If your still curious, Google the terms Sheol and Abraham's bosom, that's a good place to start.
In using critical thinking, IF we are judged by what we know, and those whom have never heard of Jesus will get into heaven, then isn't witnessing to someone, like in the deep jungles of Africa giving that person a death sentence if they don't believe?
No it is not. We do not know who is going to be saved so we have to preach to all. That's our responsibility. Who gets saved is not in our hands. The thirsty soul who hears the gospel will respond gratefully. The other is condemned already whether he hears the gospel or not.
2 Pet 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Everyone will hear the gospel. God has a way for them to hear it. Even though God knows the outcome. I dont agree on him with this one. Isa 59:12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; If we know no other way we cant be judge? We must hear the gospel first.
@@keepitapostolic. I disagree with the fact some can't hear like North Korea for example People who are Christians are in concentration camps. And most don't even know because is not taught and illegal
Did we all forget about God ALREADY knew those that are His way before the foundation of the earth was formed? Fore-knowledge, predestination....? .... .... ....
Romans 2:15 (KJV) Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and [their] thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
@I James, I believe on what Jesus says about himself not what the others says about him, a messenger of the Almighty God. 💡Gospel of John 14 :28 My father is greater than I. 💡Gospel of John 10: 29 My Father is greater than all. 💡Gospel of Matthew 12: 28 I cast out devils by the spirit of God......... 💡Gospel of luke 11:20 ......

Joeseph Lebon Joeseph Lebon Good morning I wanted to give a few verses because your response to believing what Jesus says about Himself seem reasonable enough. Jesus always spoke in metaphors and parables and becoming the perfect human was how God showed how we should model our life like Jesus.......... Gospel of John 10:30 “I and the Father are one” .......Gospel of John 14:11-14 “Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.” (No other messenger of God have authority to say to ask for Him only God himself).....Gospel of Mark 1:24-27 “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are- the Holy One of God.” But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him. And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.”..( No other messenger or prophet before and after had the command Jesus had. Even angels rebuked demons in the name of God but not Jesus. Every person he healed he did it without the need to say “ with the power of God I rebuke you” Book of John19:30 “When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.” (Now isn’t that a weird thing to say before dying? He knew He had to complete this in order for our sins to be forgiven. His blood represented the sacrificed lamb of Passover) Book of Revelation 22:12-13 “Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” (The only person that can say this is God who manifested in flesh. His Word become flesh). There was more than 500 witnesses who saw Jesus ascending the heavens proving His resurrection. There’s a lot more that Jesus said that I can go over but hope this was enough for you to understand. May God bless you on your journey on finding the truth.
🔶 He could say, only the God of Jesus knows. The business of who is going to heaven or no, is the business of the almighty God, it’s irrespecutful to talk about the willing of God. What we can do, is to pray from them, pray to the Only True God, the God of Jesus and all other prophets, to guide us all and to guide them, and to show us all and to show them the truth 😇🤲👏Ameen!🌹♥️
@Daines L. Nelly God demanded bood sacrifices of animals that is pagan ritual too . Indeed God was unhappy at the idea of sacrifices of fruits of the earth. As wa written in the bible. We should not be sacrificing any life for good be it human or animal.
There are people that have the gospel in them in their hearts without knowing Jesus or the Bible but the teaching in the spirit dwells in them. I learned that from Bro. Eli Soriano's teaching.
While it's a great explanation, it doesn't fully answer questions like, "What about the Miscarried/Died Young/Aborted?" The answer, I think, happens to do with the fact that the Bible doesn't contain all the answers related to How GOD operate's. The Bible doesn't explain absolutely everything we want to know, it explains absolutely everything we *Need* to Know. And, this is the other part of the answer, GOD is *LOVE* ! He absolutely loves those we fail to reach with the biblical message, the same as those who we do reach. He will take care of it. How? I can't rightly say. We'll be able to ask now, in prayer, and in heaven. He may answer the prayer with the how, but He will answer in heaven.
@Zeke Bean Every thing you need to know about Salvation. GOD'S Grace. You've already figured the other stuff already. Without the Bible telling you, too boot. Took you long enough. ✌😜 Besides which, your life is temporary in this world. Heaven is forever.
@@Paulthored you Will find the answer in islam. Islam teach us, that God never punished person who dont know (example,; babies, native) and forget. In cristianity even babies have original sin.
@@noname-eb3wl That's because Everyone has been under the debt of Sin. Jesus Christ is the only human being to ever be Perfectly Blameless and therefore Sinless. And either you're talking about the same God, or you aren't talking about the God of the Bible. Islam is many things, but a way to heaven, because of forgiveness, it is not. God must apply the standards for punishment to all equally, or he can't be Just. Since God is Just, he must have payment for the Sin all have accrued. Jesus Christ's willing sacrifice for our sins, is the only way for us to get into heaven. Because we ALL are already so sinful that being in God's Perfectly Holy Presence, as unrepentant sinners, would be worse than Hell. If we weren't automatically made non-existent by his presence rejecting our imperfection. Or are you thinking that infidels, pagans, or others who never heard from either Islam or Christianity... Automatically are forgiven, or not punished, because they simply don't know about either? Not that I think that happens, but I doubt that since God specifically tell's us that it is better to know & come to Faith in Christ Jesus through hearing/knowing the Word/Bible/Truth... That it is just a straight up your into heaven. Though Jesus Christ is Loving enough that I could almost see it... But he is also Just. It is admittedly an unknown subject... But, like I've said elsewhere, God put everything we Need to be saved, into the Bible... FOR those who get a chance to hear that Message. Those who don't get that Chance, Those get handled by God Himself. For instance, many Christians who were former Muslims, report having Dreams of someone they now realize was Jesus Christ... Before they'd ever even seen a Bible. And that these Dreams, got them to come to Christ. Peace to you, and God bless you during this Covid19 thing!✌😇✝🙏

Well what was God's purpose for creating to begin with? The Catechism of the Church says: "God, infinitely perfect and blessed in himself, in a plan of sheer goodness freely created man to make him share in his own blessed life. For this reason, at every time and in every place, God draws close to man. He calls man to seek him, to know him, to love him with all his strength. He calls together all men, scattered and divided by sin, into the unity of his family, the Church. To accomplish this, when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son as Redeemer and Savior. In his Son and through him, he invites men to become, in the Holy Spirit, his adopted children and thus heirs of his blessed life." The purpose was love. Think about any relationship we enter into. It's always a bit of a gamble where we can either have our heart broken or find love and build something lasting and meaningful together. But just because there's a risk of being hurt and rejected, doesn't mean you should never try, right? "To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." - C.S.Lewis
It's what's in your heart that maters if you resist Jesus in the end you will not be saved but if you love and accept Jesus in the end you will be saved. Jesus knows those who do not know him and he judges based more on the way you act rather than on what you know.
@Joshua Whitworth We Muslims love Jesus peace be upon him, we love him so much, no Muslim is a Muslim if he didn’t believe in him and on his teaching. We believe - he was the Messiah, - he had a Virgin birth, - he heals the seek, - he bring the people from dead with the power of God, - we believe on his second coming 🤗 - we pray like he prays - we follow the laws like he did - we don’t eat pork - we don’t eat blood - we don’t drink - we pray directly to the True God like he teach us. ❤️I love Jesus peace be upon him❤️ May the Only True God guide us all and show us the truth 😇🤲👏Amen!
It's not hard for you to understand the problem is is you have a conscience you're a moral person and the Bible is in conflict with morality. If the Bible was truly perfect it wouldn't need to constantly over and over again explain make excuses and apologize for the horrific things that are in it.
@Felipe Alvarez Do you think Jesus came to make bad people good, and since He didnt teach against slavery, He must be bad??? Is that your premise? Is slavery immoral now only because its against our law? It wasn't against the law when we had it. Is it immoral then, too because of an absolute moral law? Can you explain such an absolute moral law without circling back to an absolute Moral Law Giver: God?
@Felipe Alvarez slavery is one of the most talked about complaints from atheist so i did my biblical research into what it says about slavery and yes it does mention indentured servitude and specific rules regarding Isrealite slaves from foreign slaves and how long one can keep which slaves so I'm well aware of most if not all the verses pertaining to the rules of slavery according to the bible especially since atheist love to complain about it so its best to know what you are talking about before having this conversation about this subject. As it turns out most atheist just read that slavery is in the bible but that's really all they know because of their opinion that slavery is wrong without a real justifaction as to why its wrong. For the most part people are of the opinion that "slavery is wrong because its wrong" which is what every argument against slavery amounts to which is circular reasoning which atheist also loves complaining about people using circular reasoning when they are perfectly fine with using circular reasoning when it fits them but to better explain the ashiest objection to slavery what is ultimately being said from those saying slavery is immoral is that "i don't like slavery therefore it is wrong" which is not how we determine morals at all because if all it takes to declare that something is immoral is simply just "not liking it" then i could say "i don't like to eat beets therefore eating beets is wrong so it is immoral" yeah morality doesnt work like that so it isnt going to work to conclude that slavery is immoral. Anyways after the last 8-9 or so months of conversating with several people on a weekly bases about the topic of slavery(even black people and no i haven't been punched yet) what can be taken from all the info we have is simply "slavery in of itself is not immoral but its how you treat your slaves that can be immoral" so if you can justify why slavery is wrong/immoral without it just being your opinion I'm all ears and an willing to discuss biblical slavery with you. So is slavery moral or immoral and please explain why? If you ask me why it would be moral i will respond like Jesus did with the pharisees " i will answer your question when you answer mine" so I've already asked my question and would like to not have to repeat myself but i can repeat something if something needs more clarification. Thank you for replying to me and i hope to hear back from you. Have a good day
"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse." - Romans 1:20 Regardless of where a person is/was in time and place, God has revealed himself to them. For instance, God has revealed himself even to the Huli tribe of New Guinea, and they have no excuse in their response.
But he hasn't though that's the thing no one has not one person ever proves this and there's no proof of this and like that he consistently fails at this that he break God consistently hasn't proved himself to anybody that's just Paul's opinion just like the rest of the Bible lies that means that Jesus guy is like any other part like Judaism or Islam can't be proven and consistently refuted because if you look around it doesn't show the signs of the heat break God it shows signs of another God from a different belief system and it works that means Paul is a liar
That means if you didn't use Christian no one would know what it is and rightly so because it's a lie it's a fraud it's fake it means it should be totally rejected and totally wiped out
I am 100% in agreeement with this, and it all goes back to submitting to His infinite wisdom even when we don't understand. The more I learn about God, the more I fear Him. God isn't bound by time, because He exists outside of time - think about that.. He knew before the world was even created who would be His true followers. He knew what choice we would make *before we even knew who we were.* So if God is calling you pay attention and don't take it lightly, or put it off til tomorrow! I have a strong feeling that on Judgment Day we will ALL feel the sense that whatever He decides is just. And I pray that all of us who seek truth and righteousness find it in Jesus's name. 💟
You wrote … \\ He knew before the world was even created who would be His true followers. He knew what choice we would make before we even knew who we were. \\ Why create a person knowing for an absolute certainty that they will reject you and go to Hell ?
Doesn’t an all knowing god know who will hear the gospel before he even creates that person? If god created a person knowing they wouldn’t hear the gospel before they die, how is the the individuals fault?
That's a really good point. The speaker assumes people have no free will, as do you. If people had free will, then the future would be open and unknowable.
It's not about not hearing the gospel. If u listen carefully he (in the vid) explains that we are ALL without excuse, due to God being revealed in nature. If that revelation offends u, so will the gospel. If u delight in it, you'll also delight in the gospel. It's the individual's choice, therefore it is their fault.
arcguardian what about those who die as babies or below the age of reason, or the aborted or miscarried, or the severely mentally handicapped? Don’t THEY have an “excuse”?

@@lizzy6319 Many people believed that to be a good christian mean tot keep slaves. Indeed they pointed to that truth in the very bible you use. What makes your truth better than their truth is the real question? Does it mean that those people that followed the Old testament law on slavery are right. does it not point to why the gospels are different. Most people quote John as to Jesus's divinity and very few point to Mark. So my answer is if Jesus is the truth why does he need faith? Why is my faith different and even opposite depending when and where I was born. Why if we were not all gods children the bible did no t reach the incas, red indians or even the cradle of humanity in africa. Why is it the Jews and why did Jesus say he had not come to change the law of moses in one verse and contradict himself in another. history
If we're in a building that's on fire, and I see you as I'm running toward the exit, I have an obligation to tell you "FIRE". Same thing, different circumstances.
I was raised Godless and abusive environment. Without knowing Jesus or any bible teachings I still believed in a creator and sought out a personal relationship with it. It gave me an inner compass and knowledge of right and wrong. I believe that even in a dark pit God will come to us. Maybe the name is called something else but in the heart it’s God and God will see the heart has pure intentions.
It bothers me when people ask this question sometimes, because the picture for this video reminded me of a Christian who was literally killed with having spears thrown at his body, because the people there didn't want any visitors and no foreigners. So the gospel came to those people, but they never got a chance to hear it, because they rejected the messenger. And it's not Christ fault it's their own.
This video reminded me of the same thing. Is it true that if even one person on that island wanted to hear the truth, that God would've allowed it in their hearts to let him in and speak? Or is it that since God is all-knowing, knew these people would always reject the truth, and hence has them isolated...I also think of Genesis 18, when Abraham pleads with God not to destroy Sodom if as many as 10 righteous people live there, God agrees...But God already knew that there weren't 10...Probably not even 1, other than Lot...It makes for a good debatable topic.
@Andrew Kwan children & those born with dysfunctional conditions from birth (genetic aberrations that have affected their mental, visual, auditory faculties) may NOT go to hell the same is true with the ethnic / tribal / indigenous communities tucked away in far flung & unreachable places surprisingly, 90% of the global populace have heard the Word of God (Bible) even in places called "iron curtain" i.e. north korea, iran, syria, china, etc. note: i could be TOTALLY WRONG with my assertions here
@A Lvl 40 DeShawn Has Appeared! I wouldn't be worried about children dying and going to hell (they are not), I would worry about myself and my salvation.
Sorry I can’t reason with the idea of God creating humans and placing certain ones deliberately in darkness to await their own destruction. That is the very definition of injustice. I believe the answer is as simple as honoring God with what you’ve been given. Even if that’s just your conscience. To whom much is given, much is required.
@Raven Hoodcat In Islam we don’t believe that God put some people deliberately in darkness to await their ones destruction, this is teaching in the teaching and in the attributes of Allah. 💡Allah God has 99 manes and attributes : 1 The Most Gracious 2 The Most Merciful 3 The King 4 The Most Holy 5 The Ultimate Provider of Peace 6 The Guardian of Faith 7 The Guardian, the Preserver 8 The Almighty, the Self Sufficient 9 The Compeller 10 The Dominant one 11 The Creator 12 The Maker 13 The Fashioner of Forms 14 The Ever-Forgiving 15 The All Subduer 16 The Bestower 17 The Ever-Providing, The Sustainer 18 The Ultimate Judge, The Opener of All Portals, the Victory Giver 19 The All-Knowing, the Omniscient 20 The Restrainer, the Straightener 21 The Expander, the Munificent 22 The Abaser 23 The Exalter 24 The Giver of Honour 25 The Giver of Dishonor 26 The All-Hearing 27 The All-Seeing 28 The Judge, the Ultimate Arbiter 29 The Utterly Just 30 The Kind 31 The All-Aware 32 The Forbearer, The Indulgent 33 The Magnificent, the Infinite 34 The All-Forgiving 35 The Grateful 36 The Sublimely Exalted 37 The Great 38 The Preserver, The Protector 39 The Nourisher 40 The Reckoner 41 The Majestic 42 The Bountiful, the Generous 43 The Watchful 44 The Responsive, the Answerer 45 The Vast, the All Encompassing 46 The Wise 47 The Loving, the Kind One 48 The All Glorious 49 The Raiser of the Dead 50 The Witness 51 The Truth, the Real 52 The Trustee, the Dependable 53 The Strong 54 The Firm, the Steadfast 55 The Protecting Friend, Patron, and Supporter 56 The All Praise Worthy 57 The Accounter, The Numberer of All 58 The Producer, Originator, and Initiator of all 59 The Reinstater Who Brings Back All 60 The Giver of Life 61 The Bringer of Death, the Destroyer 62 The Ever Living 63 The Self Subsisting Sustainer of All 64 The Perceiver, the Finder, the Unfailing 65 The Illustrious, the Magnificent 66 The One, the All Inclusive, the Indivisible 67 The One, the Indivisible 68 The Everlasting,The Eternal Refuge 69 The All-Capable, The Most Able, The Most Powerful 70 The All Determiner, the Dominant 71 The Expediter, He who brings forward 72 The Delayer, He who brings backwards 73 The First 74 The Last 75 The Manifest; the All Victorious 76 The Hidden; the All Encompassing 77 The Patron 78 The Self Exalted 79 The Most Kind and Righteous 80 The Ever-Pardoning, Ever Relenting 81 The Avenger 82 The Pardoner, The Forgiver 83 The Clement, The Compassionate, The All-Pitying 84 The Owner of All Sovereignty 85 The Lord of Majesty and Generosity 86 The Equitable, the Requiter 87 The Gatherer, the Unifier 88 The All Rich, the Independent 89 The Enricher, the Emancipator 90 The Withholder, the Shielder, the Defender 91 The Distresser 92 The Propitious, the Benefactor 93 The Light 94 The Guide 95 Incomparable, the Originator 96 The Ever Enduring and Immutable 97 The Heir, the Inheritor of All 98 The Guide, Infallible Teacher, and Knower 99 The Forbearing, The Patien
And he couldnt even save himself from a bunch if jews and romans, and start whinning on the cross about why god let him there, a god yelling to god 😂😂😂 what a circus
He's at the safer anyone not even of himself men are the savior of him he's a sinner and he's damned men are their own saviors and they save themselves they take care of that in fact they're not even in trouble it's you guys who need to be saved really from the darkness that really comes out to you cuz sin happens even in Christianity that means it didn't solve it it only made it worse way worse in fact it caused more problems so he's got a savior of man it's just a false statement of a cult claim that's been unchallenged until you check Christianity and all it's claims and how it falls apart he's not a savior he's a damner of men men are the savior of him because they made him greater than he really was in Jesus was a damner so it's not just people who don't know about who are free but people who reject him and throw them out or overly free that means Christianity all of it every single bit of it should be destroyed and wiped out and erased as if it never happened
Some 10 years ago I figured this out that not everybody wants to be saved, after like 3 days of comments back and forth in the end the other person just said even if Jesus would stand right in front of me I still wouldn't accept Him, so I was like woooooo what ? Since then never talked with anybody about Christ who weren't at least somewhat open to hear it.
If that were the case but it's not you still shouldn't accept because he's a liar is a sinner and a fool what about another savior character or figure from a different belief system why don't you accept that one why should you accept a particular Jewish guy who sinned multiple times and died for nothing and cause conspiracy and magic tricks of Darkness why believe that why believe any of that it's more of a threat and deception it's not be saved it's way more to be not to be enslaved with false belief system it's better not to be real than to have that and that's the truth that's the god-given truth why don't Christians want to see themselves from this false belief system and come to another religion that's just as good if not better plus Christians never proved itself to anyone except people who were invent that making it up and influencing others no one's not only heard it never seen it can't see it and don't want to see it and never could see it and never should see it and can't even see it at all unless someone forces it on them like a dumb advertisement or someone who is basically selling bad salesman
I guarantee you even if you have Christianity you leave it if you take Christian off your mind and you have a viewpoints you won't find Christianity outside anywhere you'll be free of it just like people who don't come across it who are safe and free or just as much so and better they've never had not one less than zero far less.
One big problem with the whole religious 'believe in me or else' is that's it threatening and dictatorial. Better off without superstition and threatening Gods.
I am with you on that ! He murdered babies, raped women, killed animals in the old testament and we must bow down and glorify him? I am better off without their bully God.
Everytime a christian tries to tell me how loving god is I read them a page of my great grandfather's diary about how he spent 2 years in a nazi labor camp. It always works.
Romans 2:12-16 New King James Version (NKJV) 12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law 13 (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; 14 for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15 who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them) 16 in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.
Continue to Romans 3 9 What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, 10 as it is written: "None is righteous, no, not one; 11 no one understands; no one seeks for God. 12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one." (Romans 3:9-12, ESV) Our conscience and nature (environment) testify to the presence of God. As such, even those who claim never to have heard of God are condemned since the environment and our conscience testifies of His presence

That’s just foolery for something y’all don’t believe.
The problem is that Frank completely dodged the actual question that was asked and just made a bunch of irrelevant assertions that didn't have anything to do with what was asked. I'll present the same question in the form of a scenario. Suppose you have a remote village in the middle of the African rainforest. The villagers have no TV, no internet, no phones, and no awareness of the outside world. The villagers have also never been visited by foreign missionaries and thus have no bibles, nor any knowledge of the gospel message, nor the ten commandments, and no means of learning about Christianity. There is a 20 year old man named Kwame who lives in the village and is well liked by his neighbors. He is honest and has never stolen anything in his life, but is guilty of idolatry under biblical law because his people practice their own native religion. Also, Kwame has been eying a young woman who lives near him, so he is guilty of adultery in the heart. One day, Kwame climbs a tree to harvest coconuts for his village. He falls from the tree, breaking his neck, and develops severe internal bleeding. He helplessly lays on the ground, with 3 minutes to live before he bleeds out. What can Kwame do as he takes his final breaths to be forgiven of his sins and avoid eternal damnation, having never heard the gospel?
According to Catholic theology, the answer would be yes since the Bible says that love covers a multitude of sins and the merits of Christ's redemption can be applied to anyone at any time since God isn't bound by the sacraments or by time and space.
Kwame has a conscience. He knows he shouldn't eye the young woman. In his heart, he can make excuses for that or submit himself to God in repentance. The best way to know if someone is sorry is if they stop doing it or take no pleasure in going back to it. In Kwame's village some men are faithful to their wives and other men cheat.
@@blakeavila4409 There are a few problems I have with that accepting that response. First off, when you say "He knows he shouldn't eye the young woman", how exactly do you know precisely what goes on in another's mind? What empirical, measurable, re-producible, first-hand evidence can you site to show that to be true beyond a reasonable doubt? Unless you, yourself, are omniscient and can read minds, that is an unprovable and unfalsifiable claim which is thus invalid. You are simply making a blind judgement about someone else and asserting as objective fact something that you have not demonstrated to be true and more than likely can't. You also seem to be suggesting that we have the ability to suppress our natural instincts, desires, and urges. I don't see how that is possible. I accept that we have the ability to choose how we act and behave in response to those 3 things, but that's it. Free choice of action does not equal free will, the latter of which I thus don't believe we actually have. Also, unless you are a bible believing Christian (which does not apply to Kwame in my pretend scenario), what basis would a random young man have for instinctually believing that eying a young woman is actually wrong? If we examine this through the lens of consequentialism, how is it rational to believe that sexual desire in the mind is wrong, since there is no wounded party as a result of this? No victim = no wrongdoing. I can't speak for others, but I personally, never had this inclination and until someone can produce a corpse to demonstrate otherwise, I am unconvinced it is wrong. Furthermore, what those in the Christian community often refer to as "adultery in the heart" or "looking with lust" is actually describing the natural, instinctual, hormone-driven sex drive of humans (libido in scientific terms). It seems like you are overlooking the obvious fact that humans require this for our continued existence since we reproduce sexually by nature. If men and women didn't desire each other sexually, there would be no further reproduction and humans would just die off and become extinct. The bottom line is that the idea that simply looking at another person and desiring them is somehow immoral is just barking mad.

@here's my opinion. Did you read this verses too?
💡Gospel of John 14 :28
My father is greater than I.
💡Gospel of John 10: 29
My Father is greater than all.
💡Gospel of Matthew 12: 28
I cast out devils by the spirit of God.........
💡Gospel of luke 11:20

💡 John 17:3
“Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”
💡Gospel of John 5:30
I can of my own self do nothing: as here, I judge, and my judgement is just; because I seek not mine on will, but the will of the Father, which hath sent me
May the Only True God guid us all and show us the truth 😇🤲👏 Amen! As Jesus peace be upon him says all the time:
💡 John 17:3 (NIV)
“Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”
@@joesephlebon I see that you've left out the places where Jesus has said that He and the Father are one and that He's the Alpha and the Omega and even the Almighty.
@john hemnath, ♥️The verses that I sent you are the saying of Jesus himself, and they are Cristal Clear 😇. Now let’s talk about the verses that you pointed 🤗
🔴 Is to be one with God mean that’s you and God are one God? Let’s read this verses:
💡 John 17:21 (KJV)
that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.
💡 John 17:11
I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of[b] your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one.
💡 John 17:22-23
I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one. I in them and you in me-so that they may be brought to complete unity.
🔶Is this oneness makes the 12 disciples One God, the same Glory that Jesus receives from God he shares it and gives it to disciples too.
So the Oneness with God and Sharing the same Glory will makes the Disciples Gods too?
So they will not be 3 in 1, but (3+12) in 1 ? 🤔
use the same logique, why you select Divinity for Jesus and not for disciples?🤔
🔴When Jesus says, I and My father are one, I say Amen to that, all prophets are one with God, they don’t speak from theirselves. They speak what God ask them to speak and preach.
👉Jesus peace be upon him and God they were one in the purpose
@john hemnath, 🔴 Is to be Alpha and Omega makes someone God?
🔶There is an other man (Melchizedek the Priest) in the Bible, who has no beginning and no end, without Father or a Mother and without genealogy. He event meet Abraham. And he wasn’t God.
❓Is Jesus has a mother ? Yes
🔆Is Melchizedek has a father or a mother? No
❓Is Jesus has genealogy? Yes
🔆Is Melchizedek has a genealogy? No
💡Hebrews 7:1-3 (Melchizedek the Priest)
This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, the name Melchizedek means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, resembling the Son of God, he remains a priest forever.
👉 Melchizedek is without beginning of days or end of life, is he God too?
This man is filled with God's wisdom. God bless him and his ministry
Amen brother.

"Most people are not on a "truth" quest, they are on a "happiness" quest. Great quote!
If Christianity was proven to be true, would you want to become a Christian? If the answer is "no" then they have a moral problem, not an intellectual one. This agrees with scripture - John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light Great stuff!
Wouldn't they have an intellectual problem as well? Denying the truth is like next level retarded.
Each religion and the followers each religion will tell you that their religions change their life, they will tell you that they are better than before, and that they fell more happy :)
But this is not criteria, the happiness you can find it without religion, it’s depend what the people are searching for. This is objectif.
The only way to know about the religion is to study their teaching, and study their Book.
God is almighty, so his teaching and his book should be perfect! Pure message without any adding, removing,...
Joeseph Lebon there will always be questions and lessons therefor it will be an infinite book of knowledge, but not perfection.
What it the person views Christianity as immoral?
@Rafael Vargas
The Quran gives to us a challenge, the challenge come directly from God almighty.
The Quran has his own challenge if you want to test his authenticity, example :
💡Quran [4:82] (Surah An-Nisa)
“Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an? If it had been from [any] other than Allah, they would have found within it much contradiction”
No one until now find any contradiction on the Quran and this is from 1400 years ago :)
And the Quran is one (with 7 Hourouf:recitations) for all Muslims, no change, no adding, no mistakes from the prophet time Muhammad until now.
Some claim that they have found contradiction and mistakes on the Quran. And just because they don’t understand Arabic and they don’t understand the meaning of the word. They base their claim on the traduction of the Quran :)
So if the Quran is without any contradiction, and the teaching of Islam is the continuity of all other prophets, the message is the same.
- God is One
- Submition to Only the almighty God

The "99% are hostile to God" statement is absolutely true, and biblically supported, e.g. " 13 For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it," - Matthew 7:13-14. Finding the small gate and narrow road means to foresake oneself, knowing that everything truly is - all about God. Without Christ, we are nothing.

No. God would find a way to give the chance of salvation. There are people that have the gospel in them in their hearts without knowing Jesus or the Bible but the teaching in the spirit dwells in them. I learned that from Bro. Eli Soriano's teaching.
but the truth is that they would’ve. or they could’ve. to say that none of them would search for God is insanely illogical
This is true I have a friend we both use to do drugs, party, steal and do a lot of crazy things but In the end we both still felt like something was still missing. We both knew God but just weren’t ready to walk in the ways of Jesus Christ. I got tired of living that life and wanted something better so I accept Jesus Christ as my savior and I got convicted that day and the power of the Holy Spirit filled me it was like nothing I’ve ever felt before right from that day my addiction and mindset changed I told my friend that the chain’s of bondage is broken and I feel free. He knew everything what I was saying but it looked like he just wasn’t ready for change and kept on doing the sinful things. Even though he too knew something was still missing.
@ayo A, I am really happy that you stoped making sins, and you know and you believe that they are an almighty God. Now you just have to worship the correct God, the Only True God, the one and the Only, without partnership. Ask him without any mediator, ask him to show you the truth and to guide you.

God Allah in the Quran will never punish a people until he send them a messenger.
💡Quran 17:15
Whoever is guided is only guided for [the benefit of] his soul. And whoever errs only errs against it. And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And never would We punish until We sent a messenger.
Great video and explanation. Roman's 1 and 2 explains this. We are judged by what we know. For those who know the law they will be judged by the law. For those who dont know they will be judged by their conscience. There are very few people in the world who hasn't heard the gospel now. Very few people groups have not heard. I heard 2 people at my job talking about Jesus a few days ago. They don't believe in him but I was amazed how informed they were about what the gospel is. People know. They just choose to not believe. God bless

People also have heard about Allah and the Koran. Would it be right if Allah to burn you in hell because you didn’t blindly believe it?
@@frankfontaine5604 who is asking you believe blindly?
That's not true and that's not what it says and that's not what he said in his response in this video. Paraphrasing what Acts 26 says, is that all those non-believing people who haven't been formally preach the word of the Bible are unsaved and Unworthy of salvation. It is used as an explanation for the believer that clearly knows that it's wrong and unjust to punish somebody for ever for not hearing the gospel. Acts 26 does three things. 1 it relieves the Believers conscience knowing that all those unjustly convicted people deserve it. 2 it reinforces the doctrine of unbelief is punishable by Eternal and everlasting punishment.3 it dehumanizes the "Savages" who haven't heard the good news, so that you good believers can treat them any way you want, to the point of slavery or genocide. You're a believer, I get it you're convinced , it doesn't mean you're right
@@frankfontaine5604 If you look at the demographics, Christianity has a 100% penetration rate, while Islam or any other religion doesn't have it.And you will only see preachers all over the world preaching about Jesus not about fake gods like allah!
Even the people living in India knows in detail about lord Jesus, in a place where Christianity is only 2.5% of the total population !
That's exactly right. We are judged by what we know. So if someone rejects what little knowledge they have about God, why would God reveal more to them?
The bare minimum I think a person needs to be saved is to realize they need saving. Our default is we think we can save our selves
Yes, indeed. The people who are so fast to cast others into eternal fire in the name of god, are really no different from the scribes and Pharisees that rejected Jesus because he didn't fit into their box. Sincerity is the key. To truly repent you must be sincere. It does not say in order to repent you must follow every written line perfectly. These people that say you must know the name "Jesus", they don't say "or it's transliterations". Because they don't want you to believe in the entity of god. They want you to worship the Jesus they think is right. Why do they not say you must know the name he was actually born with if it's that important?
Praise be to God! Thank you Jesus for all you have done, thank you for saving me!
I asked my Mum this and she replied "I hate God because my parents died." When I said their sin caused them to die as Well as yours and mine as we've sinned against a Holy and Just God...she got absolutely furious and refuses to even hear about Jesus!
She told me that it's me who was the black sheep of the family therefore if anything I need God's forgiveness, not her or her parents..wow..Frank not the nail on the head with this one. Although I'll always love my Mum, I love God so much more and trust in him alone!
May Jesus bless you.
I don't get why everyone blames God for death , sickness , evil acts.

@@aarondowd7346 he is saying as the bible does. That God looks at the heart of the man. It is inline with what Jesus himself said in John 2:23Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name when they saw the signs which He did. 24But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men, 25and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man.
He knew what was in their heart. They did not want him. They wanted what he could give, (happiness) and he would have no part in such people.
This one is so uplifting! I’ve been on a truth quest from a very young age and try hard to put everything else behind this search. I’m stunned talking to those people that aren’t searching for truth. I subbed to your channel.
I've been on a Truth quest my whole life... Happiness for me IS knowing the Truth!
That's by far the best response to that classic question that I've ever heard. And the audience proved him right by their own vote.
"He has saved us and called us to a holy life-not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time"
2 Timothy 1:9
A truth so powerful it hurts :'( I have family who even if they knew wouldn't turn around. And they have it available. I've had family literally say they rather go to hell. No, being a Christian and knowing the TRUTH means we have joy, even amidst a heart that is shattered and broken because we go somewhere we cannot take everyone we love because of free will. And yet without free will we couldn't know true love.
WOW!!! I love the very last thing spoken! It applies to every single human being on this planet. Well done.
It is true that if people (who knew Jesus or not) truly search for the truth and are thirst for it, they will find Jesus
That last part was powerful. I have given in to my own selfish thoughts many times. But whenever I realize I've messed up, I always bring my fears, doubts, and regrets to God. I never want to be someone who turns my back on Him for too long. We're all flawed people who need the grace and kindness of our loving Father.
Wow, wow, wow! Thank you for allowing God to use you. 🙏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼 praise God!

@Daines L. Nelly , 🔶Which Gospel are you talking about? The Bible or the Gospel of Jesus form where Jesus used to preach from? 🤗🌹
@Daines L. Nelly , 🔶 So is the Bible the Gospel from where Jesus used to preach? May I have a direct answer 🤗🌹
@Daines L. Nelly , 🔶As we know Jesus preached from his own gospel, and not from the “Bibles” that we have today. The Bible that we have nowadays is A collections of some books, bibliography of Jesus, stories, poems, letters,... and Jesus never preached this book or knew its existence!
🔶The English word "Bible" comes from bíblia in Latin and bíblos in Greek. The term means books. So how are you sure that the Gospel of Jesus has all books?
📕66 books in the Protestant
📘73 books in the Catholic
📙86 books in the Orthodox
📗76 books in the Charismatic
19. *Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,* baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20. *Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:* and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
(Matthew 28:19,20)
Because we MUST PREACH. First Apostles got ot Rome, India, Armenia, we HAVE TO preach to people so they will know.
Павел Коровин Very true. And think about this. Those who have been given the light and the truth of the gospel and reject it...they will have the more severe judgment. A very sobering thought.
We HAVE TO or what? The law of God is written on their hearts. I'm all for evangelism but the scriptures don't say HAVE TO, that's man's doctrine you're bringing to the table. Instead of HAVE TO, we GET TO.
@@arcguardian 16. For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: *for necessity is laid upon me;* yea, *woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!*
(1 Corinthians 9:16)
You do understand why this is important? You are saved becuase someone did oreached to you, or did something for you, and may be they too did not really wante that. May be they had problems. All spread of gospel is becuase of Apotles and first christians, they were all killed for that. Because it is about people's lives and eternity. Yeas, we have to, and God will provide.
@@arcguardian well I guess you're right, you don't have to save a person walking off a cliff, or getting hit by a car, or a burning house fire. But Jesus tought that one should have pity and compassion for ones neighbor. Take the good Samaritan story told by Jesus for example in Luke 10:25-37. The teacher of the law of Moses asked Jesus how he could obtain eternal life. Jesus affirmed two things; to love God with all your heart, strength and soul, and to love your neighbor as yourself. When you do not preach the word of God to others around you (neighbor), you are not loving them as you would your own self. If you aren't attempting to save your neighbor than you clearly do not have love for them like you love yourself. Therefore the person you are responding to isn't brining "man's doctrine" to the table.
We don’t need you or your fantasy god!!!!
It's amazing how powerful this question is. The problem is that the answers really stink. If all you need to do is believe in God, then why do you need jesus? The whole point of having to believe in him is because he supposedly died for our sins and if you don't believe in him you can't benefit from his sacrifice. This obviously is a big problem. Why can't anyone just admit this makes no sense? So all the billions of people that came before jesus were somehow saved just by believing in God? Then the obvious question is why can't we do the same thing? Every Muslim and jew who also believe in God should be automatically going to heaven too. I just wish these people doing apologetics would stop giving these nonsensical answers pretending that it makes sense.
I'm telling you brother he didn't even answer the question at all
Exactly. If it is true that before Christ, man was saved by their simple faith in 'God', but after Christ, the rules suddenly changed and now *only* those who know *Christ alone* are saved, the supposed 'good news' is actually *bad news* for a many millions of people - seemingly overnight.
What the scriptures tell us is that 'faith in Christ' is the only **guaranteed* way to the Father. But it is not the 'only way'. Granted, the work of Christ is still the *only* means by which *anyone* is saved. But for those who never heard the gospel, their faith, humility, and acknowledgement of 'God' is sufficient that they may still be 'beneficiaries' of Christ's atonement. If you are drowning in an ocean and someone reaches his hand in to save you, you don't necessarily need to know his name or anything else about him in order to grab onto him and be pulled to safety. All you have to do is be willing to reach out your hand and acknowledge he's there to help you.
@@N.i.E.M.O My friend, so you are telling me then that the 1.5 billion muslims in this world and the millions of jews who believe in God will be "saved" just like any Christian? I understand you are saying this because this would answer the question and make sense. However, this is not Christianity at all.
Faith in Christ is the only way to be saved because it is only by faith in Christ that we can be counted righteous in God’s sight (Gal. 2:16). It is only by faith in Christ that we can be reconciled to God (Rom. 5:9-11). It is only by faith in Christ that we can receive eternal life (John 3:16). Jesus is the only mediator between God and man (1 Tim. 2:5).
Your analogy to a drowning man makes so much sense but again, this is not christianity. If you don't know the man saving you, you will drown in christianity. You are just strengthening the problem even more
@@nothingbutthetruth613
I know this will come as as blasphemous to many, but it's not about adhering to 'Christianity'. It's not about any allegiance to any group of men or self-proclaimed 'church'. What we we seek is the Truth. And the Truth goes beyond any 'religion'.
Christ said he is the only way. This is true. Without his sacrifice, there is no no way for anyone to be washed of their sins. Christ died for humanity - God himself taking on flesh in order to save his prized creation. This is the *Good News* - that the path to salvation lies in humility, selflessness, and the love of God. And how does one express their love for God? By "following (his) commandments". And how does one follow his commandments? By "loving your neighbor as yourself". Because when we do good unto our neighbor, we do good unto Christ, and when we do evil unto our neighbor, we do evil unto Christ.
The scriptures tells us that that only way to be *sure* that we will inherit the kingdom of God is by placing our faith in Christ and following in his ways. But that is the only **assured** way to God. The 'Good News'.
Before Christ, and after Christ, man was judged by what knowledge they were afforded in life and by their humility, their repentance, the content of their heart. We are judged by what we did with what we were given in life - not by what we weren't. God's ways are above our ways - but he has told us that he is a God of love and he is just.
Not all people who inherit eternal life will be 'Christians' ... any more than all self-proclaimed 'Christians' will inherit eternal life. This is not to say that there are 'multiple paths to God'. Not at all. But it is possible that one can be a 'benefactor' of Christ's sacrifice without even knowing his name, so long as they synchronize with his teaching with genuineness, sincerity, and humility in their heart.
The 'Good News' isn't necessarily about 'converting' anyone to 'Christianity' any more than it was about forcing gentiles to adopt Jewish customs. It is about revealing the clear path to salvation. It is revealing the 'mystery', the true God - so no one would have to live in doubt, worshipping a God they want to know, but don't.
Where do you folks think Abraham went after he died? Jesus hadn't incarnated yet btw
Christ is all.. in all. He will see to every sheep, as he bought them all. Grace still reigns 👌👏
To be fair, we're all on a happiness quest, it's just that some of us are content to endure hardship now for a promised greater happiness in eternity.
Ok, but I don't think ANY of us can go too far with this conversation since it is all up to God to decide wether you're saved or not.
This is one of those hard ones. Because we know everyone will stand before Him and he is just. So the judgement will be made accordingly. It’s isn’t our job to make the judgement. It’s our job to love and share.
This simple answer to this questions is found in Romans 2:12-16.
The short answer: men inherently know right from wrong because God has written it on their conscience. So even if they have never heard of Jesus, God will judge them according to their conscience. Their conscience will either condemn or excuse them. We know that God is fair and just and judges rightly. It’s very rare in our modern day to see a remote group who have never heard the Gospel though.
Read the following scriptures.
God's Judgment and the Law
12 For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.
Exactly. If nobody hears of God or Jesus, they could be judged by their conscious because every human is born with it.
Great explanation gentlemen. Very direct and concise
Matthew 24:14 And the gospel about the kingdom WILL BE PREACHED THROUGH ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS TO ALL NATIONS, and then the end will come. In other words, the end won’t come unless all kinds of people on this earth have been witnessed to. Don’t worry God has it all figured out already.
I truly believe that if someone, no matter where in the world, is truly seeking God, He will reveal Himself to that person. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.
Love ya Frank! You’re a real Christian, spreading truth in love. You’ve helped me out tremendously in my personal walk with the good Lord and I appreciate you soo much! 🙂
This may be hard for a lot of folks to wrap their mind around but it really IS ok to sometimes simply say "I don't know". Making it up as we go along in order to always appear to have all the answers is not honest.
For those still wondering if Jesus is God, ask yourself....
'Can any one persons death pay for the sins of the world?" The answer is no... only the sacrifice of God Himself could.
if jesus is God why did jesus call God his brother ?? genuinely asking trying to find some answers.
@@clipsmtc tell me when did Jesus called God brother?
In Yo Mouth Jesus is God- John 1:1, John 20:28, Titus 2:13, 2 Peter 1:1, Col 1:16, Mt 11:27, 1 Tim 2:16, Isaiah 9:6
each person will pay for their own sin. That is a fair statement to me. Sacrificing someones life for another ones sin makes no sense at all. Plus, that is all it takes? believing in jesus as god and savior will clear you of all sins???? What kind of justice is that? if I wronged someone, I can just believe in Christ and free of any fault?
Zubair Fadel it’s not just believing in his name but loving him deeply. It’s not just someone it was God as flesh that died for the sins of mankind. When you open the Bible and try to study the gospels you will c and understand. God put himself into earth to conquer death.

But it only answers the question of not hearing about christ, what about people who haven't heard of God. I think his comment that everyone knows that there is a god is not only untrue but nicely allows him to not answer that question. What happens to those who never hear about God?

I wish Frank never dies lol but that's impossible
It my prayers that someone inherit this great gift and mantle
But we pray that we will meet Frank in heaven. He's such a great blessing for us. We are made infinite through Christ's love
💖✝️💖
Frank is a lying bastard.
@NicoCoco Ugh, there's always that one guy.
Samuel Sarbah:According to Frank in a few other videos, “people don’t die, they just change locations”. He uses this phrase to answer questions with respect to biblical genocide. So you have your wish, Frank will never die but will only change locations.
NicoCoco:I was born and raised in a Christian home and so am very familiar with Christian culture. Although I do not find the evidence of Jesus’ resurrection convincing, I try and live my life like it were true. What I mean is that I try and love my neighbor, respect others and do what is “good”. Without a central tenet to live by, it is easy to become nihilistic. You might call me a religious fictionalist. I am fascinated with Frank’s arguments for morality and disagree wholeheartedly that without god, morality is just an “opinion”. Cosmic Skeptic and Rationality Rules are atheist channels that explores this concept further. I think I watch Frank hoping he’ll convince me of the belief I had for over 40 years - that Jesus was resurrected. What I end up seeing most often, is Frank using verbal gymnastics to explain away things like biblical genocide (the flood, midianites), slavery, the apparent absence of the supernatural today and eternal conscious torment. I also watch Frank to see how Christians respond to his videos and am genuinely fascinated in their responses and the many fallacies they use to justify their belief. I’m also interested in the way in which Christians equivocate “truth” with “my belief is correct” and can’t possibly fathom that some people are genuinely searching, like me, but just aren’t convinced. I don’t think you choose to believe something - you’re either convinced or you’re not just as you’re not convinced of Buddhism, Hinduism or Islam. Hope that makes sense to you.
No matter what Frank Turek says, no matter what anyone says, the entire concept of Jesus allegedly "sacrificing" himself and that having any purpose or providing any significance, is a concept that has a plethora of logical problems. That isn't to say that a person can't concoct some explanation. But to the objective person those problems remain.
Three O Five they sound ridiculously desperate everytime they try to explain the injustice of it all.
@Desire Of All Nations The problems of Jesus's alleged sacrifice depend on the religious belief. Is Jesus a human-looking incarnation of God on earth? If that is the case then Jesus is sacrificing himself to himself, a needless sacrifice and illogical. If God is omnipotent, then he can change the direction of all things, making a sacrifice unnecessary. Is Jesus really sacrificing himself at all, given that he knows he is going to heaven? If a kid takes the blame for breaking a window, an act of which he is not actually guilty, is taking the blame a sacrifice if the kid is then treated to a hot fudge sundae?
Desire Of All Nations: So let’s see, god created people, who He KNEW would sin before he created them. So god (who is somehow ALSO Jesus), knows beforehand that He will have to sacrifice himself TO himself to appease himself for his own screwed up creation... Now that I wrote that I think it all makes perfect sense! WOW!!!!!! I’m SAVED from the hell that Jesus created to eternally torture those people he created who he KNEW would burn in eternity because he never bothered to reveal himself to them!! Genius!!!!
@Desire Of All Nations You're just another apologist who lacks critical thinking and the inability to let objective arguments penetrate you because of the powerful indoctrination befalling you. It's pure dissonance on your part. This story about this Jesus man are embellishments and tall tales of primitive people akin to our current tells of: Spiderman, Batman, Superman, X-Men, Avengers. You would think I was crazy if I walked around and told you how much Superman loves you and died for you in the movie "Batman vs. Superman", well this is what I think of you Christians. You're brainwashed as children or you have some emotional problems that you aren't aware of so you appeal to something outside of yourself because you can't handle the harsh reality of this world.
Desire Of All Nations : you obviously suffer from deluded thinking. If Jesus was the OT god who exactly was the Most High God? You believe in TWO gods my friend. Hell? Read revelation. Jesus sacrificed Himself to Himself to Pay for “our” sins. That’s appeasement. Your brain is so scrambled you can’t think straight. I pity you
Excellent answer. Thank you.
Really, so who was the first person to go to heaven?
@Steve Hardy Who cares? We don’t ask silly question like that silly atheist.
@@LivingMyBestAlways yes it's a silly question
It must be pointed out that we as Christians are not judges of yhe heart, but doers of the Great Commision. We bring the Gospel, and if those we bring it to, respond with apathy, mockery, or even hostility, then we leave them be. Otherwise we must continue building meaningful relationships, being true friends, and earning the love and respect of our communities. So that they will hear us when we speak the truth.
Thank you for distilling the answer to this question down so succinctly, and easy to communicate to others.
During times of serious thought I think: In my Walk or could it be "walk" I have with the Lord? I catch myself regularly asking GOD to please help me to Repent and Believe. To help me be humble, to love others as I love myself, to genuinely reach out to others with the Gospel, to Glorify Him, to Fear Him, to obey Him because I love Him in JESUS CHRIST.
I ask this because when I look at myself (which I do quite often) I'm not striding to do all that He says. Why? Could it be because I'm hanging onto my lifestyle that I'm hoping to bring me happiness? Am I chasing what it is I want rather what GOD commands me to which is right and good?
In my struggle with self (sin) I to know what it is GOD has done for me thru JESUS CHRIST.... despite Him knowing how I am? He still paid my sin debt in His own lifes blood.... anyway??
How could I not ask Him to help me? Look what he has done for mankind's sin. So when it's all said and done it's not primarily myself who I should be looking at but at.... * JESUS CHRIST *
All glory to God, I pray to be more like Christ and less like the world it’s not about us it’s all about Jesus Christ
I’ve heard Frank Turek ask the question regarding Christianity in several videos. “If you had undeniable proof that Christianity were true, would you become a Christian?” That’s a great question. Here’s a question for Christians you rarely hear. “If there was undeniable proof that Christ was not resurrected, would you stop believing in the tenets of Christianity? Would you live your life any differently than you are living it now?”
@ Jason A Yes I would And in all honesty I ask myself that question and the answer is yes because that’s just how I am created. To believe in the CREATOR takes heart and a whole lot of trust. It’s actually easier to not believe. It makes for simpler life.
My heart is made to love forgive be kind helpful truth honesty.
I also said to myself if I’m the only person on this planet earth believe in the ALMIGHTY I’m fine I’ll just be the cheese that stand alone. I just can’t be any other way so until my very last breath I’ll always trust in the THE MOST HIGH no matter what’s going on with me or around me.
In 2019 we have undeniable proof that Christ was resurrected. On judgement day you'll have no excuse if you don't repent and believe the gospel. That's because of the amount of light that you have, the Bible so easy to purchase, you can even get it for free online, the outstanding archaelogical research available just at a simple click of a button. As Jesus said, it's gonna be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgement, than for people living in 2019. Because they didn't as much light as the world has nowadays, especially in western countries where you don't get beheaded for being a christian (yet, the time will come when that's gonna happen here as well).
Chosen D Joseph:My question was for the purpose of a thought experiment only. I’m not quite clear from your answer but it sounds like you would not change your belief?
Why You Need My Name:I disagree wholeheartedly that we have undeniable proof of Jesus’ resurrection. I’d rather not get into my reasons yet but, with all due respect, you did not answer the question. Frank posits non-believers the opposite question all the time and my answer is yes, I would believe. Are you brave enough to answer the opposite question? Would you stop believing if there was proof that the resurrection did not happen? Would you then behave any differently?
Why You Need My Name:I’m disappointed you haven’t had time to answer my follow up question and that very few Christians have responded to my initial question. If you’re proselytizing to someone about Christianity, you are asking them to temporarily suspend their worldview and consider yours. It is only fair that you are open to the same line of questioning.
"Being a Christian is inconvenient, you'd rather do your own thing too wouldn't you?"
I just got stabbed with these words. Thanks Doc. Jesus is the only way.
Awesome Frank!
I believe a more honest answer would have been for him to tell them that he just didn't know. This response is in regards to the title of this video.
Blank Man Errum, that would be lying. For we know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.
@ O T I'm a Christian too but what turns a lot of people off is people saying that they know for a fact what happens to us when we die. Nobody can say for a hundred percent guarantee that they know what happens to us when we die. All we can say is that we choose to believe one thing or another. So the most honest answer you can give somebody is to say that this is what I believe to be true. Secondly nobody can tell you what truth is. They can only tell you their perception of the truth. Just as convinced as you are that you are right that is exactly the level of conviction that Muslims have. I believe that they are mistaken but they cannot display any more evidence than I can. So the most honest answer you can give someone is to Simply say this is what I believe to be true. That is why people are called believers.
@Blank Man Truth be told. I trust in the Creator as I look around at the stars the sun the moon the sky the ocean the trees it has to come from somewhere it didn’t just happen. And when I have the emotion to love to laugh to cry both when I’m happy and sad, Someone Higher than me did that got me.
They’re building robots that talks that look humanlike, but they don’t have emotions they only say and do limited things and if they take out the batteries they can’t talk anymore.
Blank Man Wow, a non-judgemental christian, with humility! A rare thing in these debates.
I think it’s a myth that certain ppl will never hear the gospel. According to the following scripture, all ppl (nations) will hear the gospel bf the end comes.
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matt 24:14
The world aint gonna end and the return has happened every 100 years since creation. Its not just christ that returns its 144,000
The gospels are a myth. And they all contradict.
@@todbeard8118 Sorry, but there is no contradiction between the Gospels.
@@Allen_Sherry
Really? Ill give you one example of many. The first appearance of Jesus to his disciples in Luke 24 is Jerusalem. In Matthew 28 its Galilee.
Neither gospel leaves any time for the first appearance to be anywhere else. There can only be one first appearance.
@@todbeard8118 they do contradict because its different people writting there story.
I am the 1 out of 99. I would love to be a Christian again, but remain unconvinced. I read my Bible a lot and when I was a Christian I pray all the time for God to show me the way in my studies. Still seeking.

Sarah We shall see about that.
Jesus is King actually if were alive when trib we will all face trib the rapture happens after 7 year trib i hear from ppl who study rev
You know that thousands of people predicted that in the past, and we are still waiting?
Jas James That’s precisely why Jesus said, ‘When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the Earth?’
I’m still waiting... He will come again.
What about those who died in Asia Africa and America's before the gospel reached them? My argument is that since ancient times good has always existed alongside evil just like in our modern times. There were those who believed in God and chose to do right by God while the rest chose to practice witchcraft, sorcery, magic, divination and idol worship as they sought to submit to their carnal desires. I believe God reveals himself to people in different ways just like he used to during the time of Moses, abraham and other prophets but people chose to do evil due to their sinful nature just like in our modern times. There's nothing new under the sun.
"What about those who died in Asia Africa and America's before the gospel reached them?"
Dr. Turek covered this, in this particular video. The same concept applies to all humans, across the history of humans, from Adam until the day that Christ returns.
@@michaelwill7811 Agreed. Just emphasized on his point.
If Jesus had come in our time. The time when things are documented with audio and video.
There would still be people that reject it.
When he said "think of someone you know who is on a truth quest", I immediately thought of the woman I love who is a muslim but has told me multiple times when I share my beliefs as a follower of Christ with her, that she only wants to find the truth and hasn't stopped reading the bible with me since we met. Prayers for her would be appreciated. God bless you all
I've found that the "what about the natives" question is a tactic to criticize the gospel and not about a real care for the natives. The question is what will you do with the knowledge of Christ? Not what will someone else do with it.

"The heart of man is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked; who can know it?"
The Bible is very clear on this point: "Seek God with all your heart soul and mind and you WILL find him" I was backsliding for 30 years and was ruining my life. I was saved at 7 years old but over the years turned away. But after much prayer and truly seeking God he showed up in my life. I am now back in church and living my life for Jesus. I have received certainly of my eternal destination. And again the Peace that passes all understanding is in my heart. Thank you Heavenly Father for your mercy. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for your love for us. And thank you Holy Spirit for convicting my heart. ✝️
All people are accountable to God whether or not they have “heard about Him.” The Bible tells us that God has clearly revealed Himself in nature (Romans 1:20) and in the hearts of people (Ecclesiastes 3:11). The problem is that the human race is sinful; we all reject this knowledge of God and rebel against Him (Romans 1:21-23). If it were not for God's grace, we would be given over to the sinful desires of our hearts, allowing us to discover how useless and miserable life is apart from Him. He does this for those who continually reject Him (Romans 1:24-32).
Carl Valentine because our God is alive and He is real. You can ask Him to yanno he hears everything you think and he knows your desires. If you are searching for the truth absolute truth, wouldn’t you want to investigate a person like Jesus, who claimed to be the Truth? Ask him, Jesus if you are who oh say you are, please show me, Amen. Hope this helps and I hope you this touches your heart( : Godbless
Question? What are sinful desires?
Carl Valentine Bible is so special because it gives Logical, historical, Scientifical, philosophical and experiential reasons to Believe.
Carl Valentine my friend Christianity is not a religion but it is all about following a person Lord Jesus Christ.
Carl Valentine can you give me a Logical definition of origin, morality, meaning of the life and destiny of man
He just spoke out on what he thinks is a justified explanation. Would've been more logical if he pulled out some verses on what happens to disbelievers or apostates for not believing.
People are on a feelgoodway not on a truthway. Thats so true!
There is only one way to God!
Jesus said: I am THE WAY, the truth and the life, noone comes to the father but through me.
John 14:6 is one of my favorite verses
If someone seeks God, he will be brought to Christ and Christ will bring them safely to the Father.
Maybe your false god but not to a real God when you seek God you find God and there is many ways to God actually there's not one way and if it was one way it wouldn't be the Jesus guy in fact he's one way to Hell by your own standard the one with destruction and we've seen that consistently John 3:16 and John 14:6 has no power because we know the author of John has an enormous Jesus worshiping agenda and conflicts with Mark Matthew and Luke so you can't just dance around assuming it's correct when the Jesus guy destroys himself and it was fake message has been torn apart that means everyone not only should reject it but not know about this is well as eraser from their minds and be set free and come to heaven on their own cuz people save themselves it's like God saves people that means he forgives their sins when they fix themselves real forgiveness not fake agree that Christianity is corrupted I'm challengingly for 2,000 years or less
This is one question that kinda ate at me, and I was on my lawnmower, thinking about this, and I believe the Lord spoke to me, " do you believe God is Just?" And I do, and that answered it for me. I don't have to worry, God is just and will do what is right in the earth
What about those who never heard of Christ... Paul answers this question indirectly in Romans 2: 12-16
12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.
Does this mean that people who are righteous and even though we all sin they do good and they’ve never had a chance to believe in god could go to heaven?
@@dairy7087 That's what is implied, yes. So for instance, if you have never heard of the Church, and you live in a secluded place not of your own doing, but you do moral and good things, God will always know and he will judge you accordingly. Especially if you seek out God despite not being taught about him.
@@dairy7087 But if you were raised and taught about Christ and actively and consciously rebel against God and his teachings, and you also choose to never come back, then you have made the CHOICE to sin and go against what you already know. God is just and judges accordingly 🙏
I 100 percent agree...This is the correct answer for that question..I hope and pray people would seek God more thank you for this bro.
What about the people who were born before Jesus Christ?
The sins were too much then. People believed in God then. Few people
In scripture there is mention of a place called Sheol and Abraham's bosom. The old testament saints were sent to Abraham's bosom and the unsaved went to sheol. After Jesus descended, he took the old testament saints with Him to Heaven. If your still curious, Google the terms Sheol and Abraham's bosom, that's a good place to start.
In using critical thinking, IF we are judged by what we know, and those whom have never heard of Jesus will get into heaven, then isn't witnessing to someone, like in the deep jungles of Africa giving that person a death sentence if they don't believe?
No it is not. We do not know who is going to be saved so we have to preach to all. That's our responsibility. Who gets saved is not in our hands. The thirsty soul who hears the gospel will respond gratefully. The other is condemned already whether he hears the gospel or not.
One of my professors used to say "People don't believe in God because they can't, but because they wont.".
Man! This is a tough question! I don’t know that I’ve heard a satisfying response to it.
2 Pet 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Everyone will hear the gospel. God has a way for them to hear it. Even though God knows the outcome. I dont agree on him with this one.
Isa 59:12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them;
If we know no other way we cant be judge? We must hear the gospel first.
read Romans 2: 13-15. Maybe it will of much help.
Yeah because this preacher is good at going around the question.
@@keepitapostolic. I disagree with the fact some can't hear like North Korea for example People who are Christians are in concentration camps.

“They don’t want it to be true.” YES! I had always thought that!
Did we all forget about God ALREADY knew those that are His way before the foundation of the earth was formed?

So you are saying that or Almighty Holy God created people destined for hell and is not able to save them?
Calvinism is a lie from the pit of hell.
I believe God will save those who never heard but would have been a Disciple of Christ had they heard. God knows the heart.
Romans 2:15 (KJV) Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and [their] thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

Joeseph Lebon Joeseph Lebon Good morning I wanted to give a few verses because your response to believing what Jesus says about Himself seem reasonable enough. Jesus always spoke in metaphors and parables and becoming the perfect human was how God showed how we should model our life like Jesus.......... Gospel of John 10:30 “I and the Father are one” .......Gospel of John 14:11-14 “Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.”
(No other messenger of God have authority to say to ask for Him only God himself).....Gospel of Mark 1:24-27 “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are- the Holy One of God.” But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him. And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.”..( No other messenger or prophet before and after had the command Jesus had. Even angels rebuked demons in the name of God but not Jesus. Every person he healed he did it without the need to say “ with the power of God I rebuke you”
Book of John19:30
“When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”
(Now isn’t that a weird thing to say before dying? He knew He had to complete this in order for our sins to be forgiven. His blood represented the sacrificed lamb of Passover)
Book of Revelation 22:12-13 “Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”
(The only person that can say this is God who manifested in flesh. His Word become flesh).
There was more than 500 witnesses who saw Jesus ascending the heavens proving His resurrection.
There’s a lot more that Jesus said that I can go over but hope this was enough for you to understand. May God bless you on your journey on finding the truth.
@nineline bonhomme, You gave me lot of verses, and I am ready to discute them one by one. Are you ready for that ? 😇♥️
What an unsatisfying answer. You should have just said you don't know. We don't have to know everything.

@Daines L. Nelly Essentially blood sacrifices are pagan rituals why does any god need blood sacrifices......

@Daines L. Nelly God demanded bood sacrifices of animals that is pagan ritual too . Indeed God was unhappy at the idea of sacrifices of fruits of the earth. As wa written in the bible. We should not be sacrificing any life for good be it human or animal.
There are people that have the gospel in them in their hearts without knowing Jesus or the Bible but the teaching in the spirit dwells in them. I learned that from Bro. Eli Soriano's teaching.
that doesnt make any sense at all
@@kraken993 it's ok.
While it's a great explanation, it doesn't fully answer questions like, "What about the Miscarried/Died Young/Aborted?"
The answer, I think, happens to do with the fact that the Bible doesn't contain all the answers related to How GOD operate's. The Bible doesn't explain absolutely everything we want to know, it explains absolutely everything we *Need* to Know.
And, this is the other part of the answer, GOD is *LOVE* ! He absolutely loves those we fail to reach with the biblical message, the same as those who we do reach.
He will take care of it.
How? I can't rightly say. We'll be able to ask now, in prayer, and in heaven. He may answer the prayer with the how, but He will answer in heaven.
Aborted,young, enter heaven guiltless no questions they are gods babies until they have sinned then death must be payed in exchange for their sins.
We were born in sin because we were concived in sin, not because we were born sinning, many will confuse other with this.

@@Paulthored you Will find the answer in islam. Islam teach us, that God never punished person who dont know (example,; babies, native) and forget. In cristianity even babies have original sin.
@@noname-eb3wl That's because Everyone has been under the debt of Sin.
Jesus Christ is the only human being to ever be Perfectly Blameless and therefore Sinless.
And either you're talking about the same God, or you aren't talking about the God of the Bible.
Islam is many things, but a way to heaven, because of forgiveness, it is not.
God must apply the standards for punishment to all equally, or he can't be Just.
Since God is Just, he must have payment for the Sin all have accrued. Jesus Christ's willing sacrifice for our sins, is the only way for us to get into heaven. Because we ALL are already so sinful that being in God's Perfectly Holy Presence, as unrepentant sinners, would be worse than Hell. If we weren't automatically made non-existent by his presence rejecting our imperfection.
Or are you thinking that infidels, pagans, or others who never heard from either Islam or Christianity...
Automatically are forgiven, or not punished, because they simply don't know about either?
Not that I think that happens, but I doubt that since God specifically tell's us that it is better to know & come to Faith in Christ Jesus through hearing/knowing the Word/Bible/Truth... That it is just a straight up your into heaven.
Though Jesus Christ is Loving enough that I could almost see it... But he is also Just. It is admittedly an unknown subject...
But, like I've said elsewhere, God put everything we Need to be saved, into the Bible...
FOR those who get a chance to hear that Message.
Those who don't get that Chance, Those get handled by God Himself.
For instance, many Christians who were former Muslims, report having Dreams of someone they now realize was Jesus Christ... Before they'd ever even seen a Bible. And that these Dreams, got them to come to Christ.

Why would god create someone if their attitude was to turn away from him?
Well what was God's purpose for creating to begin with? The Catechism of the Church says:
"God, infinitely perfect and blessed in himself, in a plan of sheer goodness freely created man to make him share in his own blessed life. For this reason, at every time and in every place, God draws close to man. He calls man to seek him, to know him, to love him with all his strength. He calls together all men, scattered and divided by sin, into the unity of his family, the Church. To accomplish this, when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son as Redeemer and Savior. In his Son and through him, he invites men to become, in the Holy Spirit, his adopted children and thus heirs of his blessed life."
The purpose was love. Think about any relationship we enter into. It's always a bit of a gamble where we can either have our heart broken or find love and build something lasting and meaningful together. But just because there's a risk of being hurt and rejected, doesn't mean you should never try, right?
"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." - C.S.Lewis
It's what's in your heart that maters if you resist Jesus in the end you will not be saved but if you love and accept Jesus in the end you will be saved. Jesus knows those who do not know him and he judges based more on the way you act rather than on what you know.

Get to see you at CCCH love how he breaks stuff down. Sometimes things hard understand for me 👍
It's not hard for you to understand the problem is is you have a conscience you're a moral person and the Bible is in conflict with morality. If the Bible was truly perfect it wouldn't need to constantly over and over again explain make excuses and apologize for the horrific things that are in it.
@@rockhead1731 how do you know if those supposed horrific things are immoral?
@Felipe Alvarez Do you think Jesus came to make bad people good, and since He didnt teach against slavery, He must be bad???
Is that your premise?
Is slavery immoral now only because its against our law? It wasn't against the law when we had it. Is it immoral then, too because of an absolute moral law? Can you explain such an absolute moral law without circling back to an absolute Moral Law Giver: God?
@Felipe Alvarez slavery is one of the most talked about complaints from atheist so i did my biblical research into what it says about slavery and yes it does mention indentured servitude and specific rules regarding Isrealite slaves from foreign slaves and how long one can keep which slaves so I'm well aware of most if not all the verses pertaining to the rules of slavery according to the bible especially since atheist love to complain about it so its best to know what you are talking about before having this conversation about this subject. As it turns out most atheist just read that slavery is in the bible but that's really all they know because of their opinion that slavery is wrong without a real justifaction as to why its wrong. For the most part people are of the opinion that "slavery is wrong because its wrong" which is what every argument against slavery amounts to which is circular reasoning which atheist also loves complaining about people using circular reasoning when they are perfectly fine with using circular reasoning when it fits them but to better explain the ashiest objection to slavery what is ultimately being said from those saying slavery is immoral is that "i don't like slavery therefore it is wrong" which is not how we determine morals at all because if all it takes to declare that something is immoral is simply just "not liking it" then i could say "i don't like to eat beets therefore eating beets is wrong so it is immoral" yeah morality doesnt work like that so it isnt going to work to conclude that slavery is immoral.
Anyways after the last 8-9 or so months of conversating with several people on a weekly bases about the topic of slavery(even black people and no i haven't been punched yet) what can be taken from all the info we have is simply "slavery in of itself is not immoral but its how you treat your slaves that can be immoral" so if you can justify why slavery is wrong/immoral without it just being your opinion I'm all ears and an willing to discuss biblical slavery with you. So is slavery moral or immoral and please explain why? If you ask me why it would be moral i will respond like Jesus did with the pharisees " i will answer your question when you answer mine" so I've already asked my question and would like to not have to repeat myself but i can repeat something if something needs more clarification. Thank you for replying to me and i hope to hear back from you. Have a good day
@A Lvl 40 DeShawn Has Appeared! Still doesnt change the topic of whither slavery is moral or immoral and why.
"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse." - Romans 1:20
Regardless of where a person is/was in time and place, God has revealed himself to them.
For instance, God has revealed himself even to the Huli tribe of New Guinea, and they have no excuse in their response.
But he hasn't though that's the thing no one has not one person ever proves this and there's no proof of this and like that he consistently fails at this that he break God consistently hasn't proved himself to anybody that's just Paul's opinion just like the rest of the Bible lies that means that Jesus guy is like any other part like Judaism or Islam can't be proven and consistently refuted because if you look around it doesn't show the signs of the heat break God it shows signs of another God from a different belief system and it works that means Paul is a liar
That means if you didn't use Christian no one would know what it is and rightly so because it's a lie it's a fraud it's fake it means it should be totally rejected and totally wiped out
Like any good politician .. just don’t answer the question 🙄 And answer something else instead which doesn’t expose a problem with your position.
Said the inbetweener hanging in the shadows. What a sad place to be.
CHALK UP I literally didn’t understand anything you said. Can you explain please? Inbetweener? In the shadows?
He did answer the question, rewatch it.
I am 100% in agreeement with this, and it all goes back to submitting to His infinite wisdom even when we don't understand. The more I learn about God, the more I fear Him. God isn't bound by time, because He exists outside of time - think about that.. He knew before the world was even created who would be His true followers. He knew what choice we would make *before we even knew who we were.*
So if God is calling you pay attention and don't take it lightly, or put it off til tomorrow! I have a strong feeling that on Judgment Day we will ALL feel the sense that whatever He decides is just. And I pray that all of us who seek truth and righteousness find it in Jesus's name. 💟

Why create a person knowing for an absolute certainty that they will reject you and go to Hell ?
Doesn’t an all knowing god know who will hear the gospel before he even creates that person? If god created a person knowing they wouldn’t hear the gospel before they die, how is the the individuals fault?
That's a really good point. The speaker assumes people have no free will, as do you. If people had free will, then the future would be open and unknowable.
It's not about not hearing the gospel. If u listen carefully he (in the vid) explains that we are ALL without excuse, due to God being revealed in nature. If that revelation offends u, so will the gospel. If u delight in it, you'll also delight in the gospel. It's the individual's choice, therefore it is their fault.
Because if they wilfully reject it after hearing it then it's on them
arcguardian what about those who die as babies or below the age of reason, or the aborted or miscarried, or the severely mentally handicapped? Don’t THEY have an “excuse”?
him: “If Christianity were true, would you believe in it?”me: "Well, the truth doesn't really care whether or not you believe in it. What I find concerning is that religious people have to convince others that their religion is real."
@@lizzy6319 Many people believed that to be a good christian mean tot keep slaves. Indeed they pointed to that truth in the very bible you use. What makes your truth better than their truth is the real question?
Does it mean that those people that followed the Old testament law on slavery are right. does it not point to why the gospels are different. Most people quote John as to Jesus's divinity and very few point to Mark.
So my answer is if Jesus is the truth why does he need faith? Why is my faith different and even opposite depending when and where I was born. Why if we were not all gods children the bible did no
t reach the incas, red indians or even the cradle of humanity in africa. Why is it the Jews and why did Jesus say he had not come to change the law of moses in one verse and contradict himself in another.

If we're in a building that's on fire, and I see you as I'm running toward the exit, I have an obligation to tell you "FIRE". Same thing, different circumstances.
@ tokumboh Do you feel your questions in your comment have been answered yet?
Sooooooooo... if god already knew which of his creations wouldn't believe, doesn't that kinda mean he purposely sends them to hell by creating them.
Yes....
I was raised Godless and abusive environment. Without knowing Jesus or any bible teachings I still believed in a creator and sought out a personal relationship with it. It gave me an inner compass and knowledge of right and wrong. I believe that even in a dark pit God will come to us. Maybe the name is called something else but in the heart it’s God and God will see the heart has pure intentions.
It bothers me when people ask this question sometimes, because the picture for this video reminded me of a Christian who was literally killed with having spears thrown at his body, because the people there didn't want any visitors and no foreigners. So the gospel came to those people, but they never got a chance to hear it, because they rejected the messenger. And it's not Christ fault it's their own.
This video reminded me of the same thing. Is it true that if even one person on that island wanted to hear the truth, that God would've allowed it in their hearts to let him in and speak? Or is it that since God is all-knowing, knew these people would always reject the truth, and hence has them isolated...I also think of Genesis 18, when Abraham pleads with God not to destroy Sodom if as many as 10 righteous people live there, God agrees...But God already knew that there weren't 10...Probably not even 1, other than Lot...It makes for a good debatable topic.
Leave people alone.
Jim Elliott took the message to one of these tribes and was killed. Later the entire tribe repented and came to Christ!
@Andrew Kwan
children & those born with dysfunctional conditions from birth (genetic aberrations that have affected their mental, visual, auditory faculties) may NOT go to hell
the same is true with the ethnic / tribal / indigenous communities tucked away in far flung & unreachable places
surprisingly, 90% of the global populace have heard the Word of God (Bible) even in places called "iron curtain" i.e. north korea, iran, syria, china, etc.
note: i could be TOTALLY WRONG with my assertions here
@A Lvl 40 DeShawn Has Appeared! I wouldn't be worried about children dying and going to hell (they are not), I would worry about myself and my salvation.
Sorry I can’t reason with the idea of God creating humans and placing certain ones deliberately in darkness to await their own destruction. That is the very definition of injustice. I believe the answer is as simple as honoring God with what you’ve been given. Even if that’s just your conscience. To whom much is given, much is required.
@Raven Hoodcat
In Islam we don’t believe that God put some people deliberately in darkness to await their ones destruction, this is teaching in the teaching and in the attributes of Allah.

He is the savior of all men... who will have All men to be saved .... he taketh away the sin of the world.. reconciling the world unto himself
And he couldnt even save himself from a bunch if jews and romans, and start whinning on the cross about why god let him there, a god yelling to god 😂😂😂 what a circus
He's at the safer anyone not even of himself men are the savior of him he's a sinner and he's damned men are their own saviors and they save themselves they take care of that in fact they're not even in trouble it's you guys who need to be saved really from the darkness that really comes out to you cuz sin happens even in Christianity that means it didn't solve it it only made it worse way worse in fact it caused more problems so he's got a savior of man it's just a false statement of a cult claim that's been unchallenged until you check Christianity and all it's claims and how it falls apart he's not a savior he's a damner of men men are the savior of him because they made him greater than he really was in Jesus was a damner so it's not just people who don't know about who are free but people who reject him and throw them out or overly free that means Christianity all of it every single bit of it should be destroyed and wiped out and erased as if it never happened
Some 10 years ago I figured this out that not everybody wants to be saved, after like 3 days of comments back and forth in the end the other person just said even if Jesus would stand right in front of me I still wouldn't accept Him, so I was like woooooo what ? Since then never talked with anybody about Christ who weren't at least somewhat open to hear it.
If that were the case but it's not you still shouldn't accept because he's a liar is a sinner and a fool what about another savior character or figure from a different belief system why don't you accept that one why should you accept a particular Jewish guy who sinned multiple times and died for nothing and cause conspiracy and magic tricks of Darkness why believe that why believe any of that it's more of a threat and deception it's not be saved it's way more to be not to be enslaved with false belief system it's better not to be real than to have that and that's the truth that's the god-given truth why don't Christians want to see themselves from this false belief system and come to another religion that's just as good if not better plus Christians never proved itself to anyone except people who were invent that making it up and influencing others no one's not only heard it never seen it can't see it and don't want to see it and never could see it and never should see it and can't even see it at all unless someone forces it on them like a dumb advertisement or someone who is basically selling bad salesman
I guarantee you even if you have Christianity you leave it if you take Christian off your mind and you have a viewpoints you won't find Christianity outside anywhere you'll be free of it just like people who don't come across it who are safe and free or just as much so and better they've never had not one less than zero far less.
One big problem with the whole religious 'believe in me or else' is that's it threatening and dictatorial.
Better off without superstition and threatening Gods.
Yeah
I am with you on that ! He murdered babies, raped women, killed animals in the old testament and we must bow down and glorify him? I am better off without their bully God.
Everytime a christian tries to tell me how loving god is I read them a page of my great grandfather's diary about how he spent 2 years in a nazi labor camp. It always works.

Thankyou for your very moving comment.
Romans 2:12-16 New King James Version (NKJV)
12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law 13 (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; 14 for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15 who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them) 16 in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.
Continue to Romans 3
9 What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, 10 as it is written: "None is righteous, no, not one; 11 no one understands; no one seeks for God. 12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one." (Romans 3:9-12, ESV)
Our conscience and nature (environment) testify to the presence of God. As such, even those who claim never to have heard of God are condemned since the environment and our conscience testifies of His presence
@@davisgathinji346 the bible is fictional mythology written by man nothing more. Jesus is a Egyptian myth fabricated by Rome for political propaganda. Faith isn't fact you gullible delusional fool.
@@geoffreyschotte9028 - You demonstrated that any fool can make a load of assertions, while ignoring historical records and evidence to the contrary. So much so that most of your buddies the atheists disagree with your assertions.
@Geoffrey Schotte It seems to me your are the fool here because faith is facts. Some of y’all atheist must be getting paid to subscribe to Christians yt channels so y’all can spew out y’all unbeliefs because I can’t understand if y’all hate Christian why keep coming on here to listen, read comments and then comment.
I know atheist hate Christian I won’t subscribe to their channel I already know they’re bashing Christian so why listen and try to defend it seems futile to me.
it could be a year or 6 months and y’all still commenting on the same thread. That’s just foolery for something y’all don’t believe.
@@danielmann5427 there's no historical evidence. You can't prove a single story in the bible with factual proof.
The problem is that Frank completely dodged the actual question that was asked and just made a bunch of irrelevant assertions that didn't have anything to do with what was asked. I'll present the same question in the form of a scenario. Suppose you have a remote village in the middle of the African rainforest. The villagers have no TV, no internet, no phones, and no awareness of the outside world. The villagers have also never been visited by foreign missionaries and thus have no bibles, nor any knowledge of the gospel message, nor the ten commandments, and no means of learning about Christianity. There is a 20 year old man named Kwame who lives in the village and is well liked by his neighbors. He is honest and has never stolen anything in his life, but is guilty of idolatry under biblical law because his people practice their own native religion. Also, Kwame has been eying a young woman who lives near him, so he is guilty of adultery in the heart. One day, Kwame climbs a tree to harvest coconuts for his village. He falls from the tree, breaking his neck, and develops severe internal bleeding. He helplessly lays on the ground, with 3 minutes to live before he bleeds out. What can Kwame do as he takes his final breaths to be forgiven of his sins and avoid eternal damnation, having never heard the gospel?
According to Catholic theology, the answer would be yes since the Bible says that love covers a multitude of sins and the merits of Christ's redemption can be applied to anyone at any time since God isn't bound by the sacraments or by time and space.
@@lukebrasting5108 He didn't ask a yes or no question.
Kwame has a conscience. He knows he shouldn't eye the young woman. In his heart, he can make excuses for that or submit himself to God in repentance. The best way to know if someone is sorry is if they stop doing it or take no pleasure in going back to it. In Kwame's village some men are faithful to their wives and other men cheat.
@@blakeavila4409 There are a few problems I have with that accepting that response. First off, when you say "He knows he shouldn't eye the young woman", how exactly do you know precisely what goes on in another's mind? What empirical, measurable, re-producible, first-hand evidence can you site to show that to be true beyond a reasonable doubt? Unless you, yourself, are omniscient and can read minds, that is an unprovable and unfalsifiable claim which is thus invalid. You are simply making a blind judgement about someone else and asserting as objective fact something that you have not demonstrated to be true and more than likely can't. You also seem to be suggesting that we have the ability to suppress our natural instincts, desires, and urges. I don't see how that is possible. I accept that we have the ability to choose how we act and behave in response to those 3 things, but that's it. Free choice of action does not equal free will, the latter of which I thus don't believe we actually have.
Also, unless you are a bible believing Christian (which does not apply to Kwame in my pretend scenario), what basis would a random young man have for instinctually believing that eying a young woman is actually wrong? If we examine this through the lens of consequentialism, how is it rational to believe that sexual desire in the mind is wrong, since there is no wounded party as a result of this? No victim = no wrongdoing. I can't speak for others, but I personally, never had this inclination and until someone can produce a corpse to demonstrate otherwise, I am unconvinced it is wrong.
Furthermore, what those in the Christian community often refer to as "adultery in the heart" or "looking with lust" is actually describing the natural, instinctual, hormone-driven sex drive of humans (libido in scientific terms). It seems like you are overlooking the obvious fact that humans require this for our continued existence since we reproduce sexually by nature. If men and women didn't desire each other sexually, there would be no further reproduction and humans would just die off and become extinct.
The bottom line is that the idea that simply looking at another person and desiring them is somehow immoral is just barking mad.
Dr Frank has a slide to everything, I love it.
