Alisa, my son just graduated HS and his apologetics teacher gave him "Another Gospel?" as a graduation gift. He really appreciated what you had to say! He's starting his second summer as a CEF missionary. Blessings to you and Frank for standing with God and His truth!
Another gospel? I think im missing something lol
@litpath3633 its an awesome book called "Another Gospel?" By Alisa Childers. It talks about the dangers of Progressive Christianity.
@@LynneMadison0731 ah, cool!
Wait, he can't read that though. Him reading that would be antibiblical
@@wulfosaurus18359😅
Thank you for calling out the weak Christian’s and pastors who are being silent on these issues!
I am a pastor and I say to you "AMEN and AMEN!!" 😀😇😊 -- Pastor John, WV
Silent pastors. Check, yeah.
Church does nothing to protect oppressed christians world wide, that's if they are even aware of that.
Says nothing about present day slavery, FGM, nothing about "Christl-m',
It's a disgrace.
Correct.
More pressure is being exerted than before, which already killed many before.
Maybe its because they don't want to lose a bunch of people due to their bigoted beliefs and would rather keep those people too to keep giving them money so they can have a free paycheck.
I LOVE IT when the LIGHT of righteousness shines through the darkness from those who belong to Christ!! Gal. 3:28 the spiritual battlefield we are engaged in is the struggle for identity. Satan's noose is tight on them but THANK GOD HE transferred us out of darkness and into Christ. HE IS STILL the chain breaker; these deceptions are as always, rebuked by the word of God. Tread on the serpents and scorpions, each and every lie of the wicked one, tear down strongholds that keep men in blindness and take captive every argument that raises itself against the knowledge of Christ! GOD BLESS YOU!!
@@anchoraboveworship8404 bro y’all can’t even prove spirits exist..
Thankfully my pastor is not afraid to speak out!
“We shouldn’t be looking down to animals but up to God.” Preach brother! Sometimes when brothers spit facts like this it makes me say “Whew!” Out loud!😂😂😂
Or u can give it a good old Amen
But yet humans are animals... Just with bigger brains and bipedal. Did god make it where our heads are to big to fit out of a persons pelvis? or give us the spine of animals that walk on 4 legs causing us to have back pain? and why couldn't this all powerful god not make a Non constantly contradicting story?
Truly amazing how good common sense and truth feels.
Yee haw common since with my highschool biology education
Question is was this comment liked for the right reasons or wrong 😂
Do you mean Atheism? Because that's based on truth.
Who's truth though? The one based off the most research and tangible facts or the one based in a book from thousands of years ago that didn't know science like we do nowadays? Have you looked at the thousands of studies on trans people and how there are multiple parts of their brain that often are more closely aligned with their gender identity? What do you think intersex people are then? What do you say about Indian cultures having a 3rd gender? Assuming you identify as a man or a women is your idea of being a man or women the same as mine or someone else's? No because gender is something we made vague labels for and then each person using it and identifying with it has a different experience of it.
After 20 years of working for Childrens Hospital Milwaukee, I left once I saw the writing on the wall with all this! About 1/2 the staff left too! So sad.
They are doing wicked things.
Are they doing trans surgery on kids?
See for yourself. Search Childrens Hospital Milwaukee Gender Clinic.
Amen! A soft heart and thick skin. Speaking truth in love.
Thank You Alisa! 🙏🏼
Praise God for you both
I recently watched Gary Hamrick from Cornerstone Chapel preach about this - he calls it as it is. He's solid!
I watched Pastor Gary from Cornerstone Chapel deliver a message on Transing America recently and it was amazing!!!
As a commited jew (and a regular viewer of your channel) I'm glad to see people with the courage to speak out against transgender ideology and same-sex marriage. With the government against us it's a difficult battle but the country's children are at stake.
Thanks for making sense, it's a refreshing change from false teachings and itching ears.
Yeah...to bad you want get truthful honest discussion here I wouldn't trust a guy with psychology and biology that has a philosophy degree that is obvious here for financial gain from ignorant people
As a Christian man, who has struggled with homosexual lust for my adult life, there is no PRIDE in this burden. It is a "thorn in my flesh." I am 49 years old now, so the desire isn't as strong as it used to be, but it never entirely goes away. ✝ 2 Corinthians 10:5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, ✝ 2 Corinthians 5:14 For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died;
It is refreshing to hear from a Christian man who admits that God made him with same sex attraction, that it is not some demon or abnormality. It is who you are.
@22kirbysean We are all born with certain bents and proclivities that are outside of the will of God. That's why we have to be "born again" or "born of the spirit," as Jesus explains in John chapter 3. When we are born of the Spirit, we then learn to walk according to the spirit, rather than the flesh. Jesus tells us we are to take up our crosses daily and follow him, essentially crucifying the flesh on a daily basis, rather than embracing our sinful desires. Jesus died to set us free from those and took our punishment upon himself for our sin. We are not to live a sinful lifestyle because of the grace of God given to those in covenant with Him through the shed blood of Jesus but, rather, we are to deny ourselves with the strength that the Holy Spirit gives us daily to walk in purity, which is pleasing to God.
Mateocafe 45 did NOT "admit that God made him this way" nor did he deny that its a demonic abnormalty. If Im wrong, show me. Sentence #3? #12?
Sorry, but it seems your wishful thinking has taken over reality.
At most, God allows certain atrocities-as he did with Job. But we are to reject those bad things & follow Jesus. Im very happy Mateo is doing so.
@@cathyr.5360VERY WELL SAID, CATHY!🤗
We are all born with a bent AWAY from God and towards rebellion. We all need the grace and peace that passes understanding that Jesus offers all who will come to Him.
Southern Evangelical Seminary is NOT the same institution as Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. I just figured this out after googling both. I keep hearing people talking on podcasts referencing "Southern Seminary". I thought they were the same place, and it was stunning to hear you praising what I thought was a woke seminary, Alissa. This is because I just saw a video of Dr. Fuller (on the "Conversations That Matter" RUclips channel) describing how he was fired from "Southern Seminary", meaning Southern Baptist Theogical Seminary in Louisville Kentucky, because he refused to go woke. You might want to periodically point out the distinction between the two seminaries!
I watched that as well. Actually mixed on the report.
Btw, guys: I'm from Ireland, but some good news from our neighbours in the UK the last day or two: the British Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, just passed a law that kids under 18 (i think) can't be affirmed in their school as anything other than their biological gender, without their parents' permission.
oh yes that is so wonderful! guess what i know a few people that had a similar situation to this and guess what when such stuff happened, they became no longer of this world such beautiful news im so glad to hear this! let us rejoice and be happy in our ignorance because we don't know firsthand experience or know personally of anyone just bs we are told by garbage outlets! we should even toast to this!
Not ignorance at all, @paci1283 . No child should be legally able to make such huge decisions without their parents' knowledge and consent.
Absolutely, definitely no question.
I'm not sure why you would think they should.
@@elizabethryan2217 yes having the class say their prefer pronouns and name at school are very huge decisions 🤣what you think they are doing? Teachers handing them hormones and going to the science lab to perform surgeries ??
@@elizabethryan2217 fyi those people I mentioned were teens
With respect, @@Derp934, there's no need to be disrespectful to me. I've said I'm open to hearing uour opinions.
But yes, if it forms part of a process where a child may want to change their sex, then *yes* absolutely, changing your pronouns is a huge decision that shouldn't be done without the parents' consent. It's also tremendously confusing - and, imo, unfair - for other children in the class.
Thank you for this! So insightful.
Thank you so much for this discussion! Praise God that we have Christians such as yourself and Dr. Turek standing for truth. Love you both!
This isn’t Christianity. It’s hate rhetoric and flies in the face of what Jesus would do. Disgustingly homophobic and incredibly intolerant. It’s no wonder that less than 50% of Americans now identify as being affiliated with organized religion. It does nothing but foster hate and intolerance.
what we need to do is up hold all moral standards for everyone not just homosexual behaviors.
Great discussion. Both of you are such amazing voices for truth.
I love the rooster/ chicken talk.
You know what's a great discussion that actually improves issues having a civil non bias discussion with 2 people with not the same view points that isn't a silly waste of time echo chamber
@@Derp934 Bro so true they need to use people with differing views who also have evidence and both go back and forth while bringing up direct citations and proof to show flaws and biases in both sides. An echo chamber never helped the world only held it back and made it worse.
Best so far (imho) take on these issues 👍🏻 keep up great work. God bless
Oh man Frank Turek's story is wild. I didn't know that. What's going on is insane.
Thank you Alisa and Frank for speaking the Truth. And I just want to quick say that the Pastor of the Church I am a Member of is not afraid to (and does frequently) speak against all these issues, pointing us to the Truth of the Bible. Here in Michigan it may soon become illegal to do so. Prayers are needed.
I have been reading on the power of the blood of Christ, and understanding we fight demons that even influence Christians. We need revival and renewal to stand in faith.
Francis Aaron - Train Harder
Our family has just moved to Michigan, where we've began attending a church that speaks, stands, and equipps others in Biblical truth. Knowing what the Bible instructs of our teaching pastors, elders, deacons, and church body, this would go against everything that we stand for. Praying for unity within the shared body of Christ!
I was told if churches belong to a synod and not independent they got orders from headquarters to stay silent on today's issues or lose their tax exemption.
It's not going to be made illegal. Stop pretending you're being persecuted
Growing up in the 50's and 60's I can't even fathom having not only this discussion but many of today's discussions during that period. It's obvious that the powers of darkness are working overtime right now.
Yes, it seems the later it gets the more perverse the world becomes.
Really? In the 50's and 60's men went to work, came home and slapped their wives around if dinner wasn't ready or if the house wasn't tidy enough. Especially if the guy stopped at the pub for a couple beers first. It was not talked about. Swept under the rug.
You really think nobody was gay in the 60's, or just nobody was openly gay?
@@skippy675It wasn't stated that no one was gay in the 60's. Our present condition was referenced--and it's unprecedented.
@@skippy675Try and keep on topic. I was referring to the discussion itself as homosexuality and transgender lifestyle's had not become so prevalent. Even the behavior you referenced has increased in today's world.
@@BaronReed-rj9rz you're right, I got a bit off topic.
We should keep in mind though that media channels were much fewer and much more strictly regulated for content last millennium. Forget the 50's and 60's, even in the 1990's. So of course discussion about sexual orientation, gender identity and "taboo" topics as they were considered back then were not mainstream topics.
How do we really quantify if there is really more chatter or there is just more mainstream exposure to it? Every generation is convinced that there generation was far more chaste, pure, hardworking, grounded etc. than the generations that follow.
Overreacting is one of the Hallmarks of the Christian worldview.
This was SO good! Thank you, Alisa and Frank. I will be saving this to rewatch again and again.
So many great points, but when I am put on the spot, I forget them all
must not be such great points damn...
You guys are prophetic voices in the body, empowering people to live in truth.
"Your identity is in Christ Jesus", this here solves all these problems.
I was just fired for saying pride is a sin. Big woke presented me with many allegations regarding my contact. I am glad to go. I was required to participate in DEI madness. My boss is trying to rescue me but can't.
Get debt free. Stand firm.
So very sorry to hear this! May God vindicate you!
@@chaddonal4331 Thank you. The Lord got me a new job. I start on the 10th. The agenda is deep and dark.
Please watch a sermon by Gary Hamrick of Cornerstone Chapel "The Transing of America". Be well.
God bless you. I know He will take care of you and your loved ones; He is our good Father.
@@Romns1513 Correct
Thank you for this. I have for a long time been mind-blown at the incoherence of this phenomenon.
Yeah there is some subjects that go beyond me that I didn't study I'm guessing yours was beyond highschool biology classes?
Excellent interview! TY!
GREAT EPISODE. By far one of my favorites
Great information!! Love the perspective.
Thank you SO MUCH for teaching us how to respond and with which words.I finally have peace about how I (and my kids) can respond to the intolerance.We live in South Africa-and this is a fast-growing issue in our schools.Thank you for standing up-you guys are awesome!
Frank Turek is a fierce debater! Thanks!
Frank's a fraud that creates false premises to argue from.
Soooooo good! Thanks Frank and Alisa. You both have such a talent to simplify arguments and express them in a respectful and loving way. This is so good.
Speaking the truth? How many invisible supernatural beings do you believe in?
My name is Newton. I'm from de South of Brazil.
God blessyou my brother's !
Incapacity rather than a third capacity. Why not think your mind is the problem instead of your body. So many brilliant points. Thank you.
It's lovely to hear a silly person that has a philosophy degree that actually knows nothing of the subject matter spitting more garbage for their financial gain
Great video. Love watching your discussion, it’s real food for thought. Thank you 👏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Great program!
Wonderful wonderful conversation! Thank you both so much.
I have even more respect for Turek now hearing his story!
That he held bigoted outdated views on people he claims to love and see as made in the image of god, and got the punishment he deserved for it?
@@lilRaivinPoeeven if you disagree, having the courage of your convictions is admirable.
And thats what the Bible says. You don't have to believe it.
@@peterwallis4288 Bro what
@@lilRaivinPoe what do you find hard to understand?
@@peterwallis4288 second half of your comment makes no sense and sometimes having courage on convictions is not admirable because those “convictions” can be very harmful to others
Wow! What a great discussion! Thank you, Alisa and Frank!
Awesome show!
You guys are so FANTASTIC! God bless you
Excellent.
Thank you for having Frank on your show! Together you both provide much needed clarity, Truth, and wisdom!!
Frank and truth don't mix
@@jjevans1693 what do you mean by that? Tell me more.
@@howdythere3121 If Atheism is true then morality doesn't exist- Frank Turek
These are false premises or assertions not facts. Atheism is based in truth. How was the universe created? The only truthful answer is nobody knows. What happens when we die? The only truthful answer is nobody knows. Religion is based on people pretending to know things that nobody knows then convincing others of those lies.
The Bible condones slavery, mass genocide, killing of children and rape.
Virgin births, resurrections, miracles Dec born Messiah's and even the ten commandments were all stolen from Greek and Egyptian myths before the bible was written. The Roman's created religion to control the weak minded population by preying on their superstitious mindset and fear of death.
To teach children that invisible supernatural beings watching over us exist is child abuse as nothing supernatural has ever been proven to exist. Liers always say they are telling the truth. Frank knows the definition of Atheism yet he's pretending it's something that it's not. He should be ashamed.
@@jjevans1693 so true
They also make a great echo chamber for people like you to justify their bigoted beliefs 😁
fantastic interview
Pastor Allen Jackson at WOC in Tennessee is an amazing teacher on all these issues.❤
THANKYOU ❤
Great discussion!!
Frank....I can tell you're from NJ by your blunt, no nonsense talk. I have a mug my best friend of over 60 years (also from NJ) gave me..."I had the right to remain silent, but being from NJ I didn't have the abliliy". thank you.
This was wise and informative.
are we watching different videos? i think we are because this video was some hot steaming garbage that i saw
Great discussion
You both are standing up for truth. God bless
Whoooos truth though....
Thanks for all you do, just bought your book.
Sucker
Thank you. 🤠
I love you guys. Thank you so much for all that you do and bringing some sanity into this world!
Beautiful!! 😍
Thank you! This interview was very helpful to navigate these challenging days with respect for others and holding to the truth💗🙏🏻
What truth though?
This was great! Your discussion about toxic feminism reminded me of one of my all time favorite books: The Anti Mary Exposed: How To Rescue The Culture From Toxic Femininity by Dr Carrie Gress
Abigail Shrier has a great video of her speech at Hillsdale College. Very informative.
Thank you for your work in making this and putting it out there. So hard nowadays.
So hard to persecute others because they are different than you? Wow glad it is then.
The stigma of a psychological problem puts a dark cloud over the labeling of gender dysphoria as a psychological problem- that as well as the history of abusive treatments of psychological problems (electro therapy, imprisonment, etc).
Feminist theory is very diverse and has so many branches. We can’t just bump them as one group. Irreversible Damage is a must read.
I knew you were in my Texas. I see the picture behind you🙏🏻❤️
Great video.
What an EXTREMELY HELPFUL conversation. THANK BOTH & EVERYONE ELSE INVOLVED in bringing this to us!! SUCH a HUGE BLESSING!!
This is just so bizarre. Teachers in my day (70's-85) added lil extras here & there. But it was like: My 4th gr teacher taught us how to knit. 5th gr teacher...She was famous for shutting down eVeRything & dragging the TV in her class every yr on superbowl day. (It mustve bn on Monday back then). Anyway..One peep & you'd spend the rest of the day bored to tears, watching the secrtary type. But NOTHING like THIS.
Nothing like what?
Thank you
This is fantastic. So many of his comments shpild be stand alone quotes.
Love is willing the good of another. It’s an act of the will not a warm and fuzzy feeling.
Wow. Frank Turek at his best. Like always he was Very, very informative.
Misinformation delusional one.
Just ordered the book! Very much looking forward to reading it! Great talk!
I love your rabbit tail on the chicken talk!! So fun 😁💗
Share Share Share this EVERY June.
*🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻 AGAINST this SINFUL SICK PERVERSION‼️
Wonderful and hard hitting simple truth. By the way i can think of a few other well know pastors who boldly speak the truth regard the alphabet socila craze. John MacArthur, Justin Peters, Paul Washer, Voddie Bachum and many others who dont come to mind at the moment. Great advice Frank on how to address with work related issues! Next stop, to get the book!
An acronym never hurt anybody but all lot of people sure do hurt the acronym apparently. People all have different preferences and identity but y'all say everyone is different and in the image of god but then get mad when everyone isn't cookie cutter enough for you. My identity as a male will never be the same way of being "male" as the next person.
Super important talk. Provocative, relevant, timely. Love Frank, great team up, as good as a Batman and Wonder Woman, lol. Certainly the Brave and the Bold, lol😅 thanks so much, so helpful. Your and Frank's humor is so helpful too. Frank is a national treasure and so are you. Much love.😊 oh, Batman and Wonder Woman was one of my favorite Brave and the Bold team ups in the comics.😊 just trying to bring a little humor of my own. This stuff gets so serious when you have children being harmed. I do pray soberly about these things.
What children are being harmed by LGBTQIA+ people? Gimme a list of a few cause I can give you a whole dictionary of things that heteronormative society has done much worse. But I do agree some things in society hurt children... Like your views on homosexuality and how they hurt Gay kids and tell them their felling's are not valid and worse than little Billy over there touching the little girls.
A man of integrity, holding to your Biblical principles.
Am I exhibiting integrity when I hold to my non-biblical principles?
Man of delusion
@@Theo_Skeptomaiyes, of course. Holding to your principles is the meaning of integrity.
many good points are made. all we really need is common sense! o true what is being said!
Thank you for TRUTH.
Truth?
Frank wouldn't know truth if it hit him on the head.
Thankfully, Frank's correct about the tide starting to turn. It's very noticeable.
Live Your Truth?! The book should be titled: Live God's Truth. There is only ONE truth.
Truth has a liberating power, sinners like me was helped by the Truth.
Truth also is a liberating power for atheists who have never sinned, such as I. Do you agree?
My pastor stands up for the truth. Pursuit NW and we are in Seattle area. The church has grown so much since COVID. In part because Ps Russell Johnson refused to close the church's door during COVID. He also stands for Israel and helps fight the crazy transgender ideologues. In WA they passes a law that they Gov can take the kids, give them gender affirming"care without parental concent.. We have since gotten an opposing bill on the books to counter this madness. But I wanted to say there are Pastors standing up for truth. They are just far and few between.
Praying the Rosary for you. A friend of Chastity Support
Even as I struggle to support my children and myself I trust in you Lord. I know life gets hard but God please continue to give me the strength to keep going because I want to give up. Jesus hear my prayers. Heavenly Father I know you don’t give us more than we can handle. But Father God I’m losing hope. Since losing my job for declining the vaccine I’m constantly faced with financial hardships. I declined the vaccine because I have heart disease and lupus. I’m now waitressing but not making nearly enough to support my two boys. With both my sons being special needs it’s so expensive raising them. Jesus hear my cries. I’m so ashamed. Struggling to support my children has been so difficult also because I am a single mother. Struggling to buy groceries. Struggling to pay rent. It’s not easy but I’m keeping faith. Walking with faith not by sight!
I have prayed in your behalf, Sister. 🙏
We are sometimes given more than we can handle. Don't blame yourself, sister, if the fallen world around you gets to you. This world is hard!
The Lord will provide what we need, but scripture tells us we WILL indeed struggle. Jesus said, in this life we WILL have tribulation, but take heart, because He has overcome to world. Lifting your circumstances up to the LORD in prayer.... Also I think this is the verse in your comment you meant... It's not that God won't give us more than we can handle, but rather speaks about temptation, and will always give us a way out, but it's our choice to choose, and resist that temptation.
The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.
1 Corinthians 10:13
God Bless!! ❤
SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!
this same comment has been around for years...since covid
Its a cut and paste 🤦♀️
Many scammers prey on Christian channels...be discerning brethren✝️💜🙏
I've seen this posted on several channels now, word for word ...
Always define or ask your friend in conversation, to define your/their terms. THAT is THE PROBLEM. The “love” that LGBTQETC DOES is “selfish” love that stimulates the “flesh”. Godly ‘love” or AGAPE love is “unselfish” and is concerned about the other person’s needs and boundaries, with respectful service. The EROS love, is only concerned with the selfish need to “feel” good. There are always exceptions to a real and undeniable principle. Jesus said,”Wisdom is proved right by her children.”
Absolutely 🎉 THAT is the second Columbo question in Greg Koukl’s Tactics…”What do you mean by that?”
Why do you imagine that homosexual love is any different than yours?
@@avishevin3353 Because God says that it's unnatural, perverted, and abomination. God created everyone heterosexual. Perversion is a choice, not a birthright. The only sexual relationship that God blesses and approves of is that between a biological man and a biological woman who are in a faithful, monogamous marriage. He condemns all others.
@@jamestrotter3162
Homosexuality is not mentioned once in the OT, and the NT is pure filth that need not be considered.
Not everyone is created heterosexual, and this lie you promote is why you cannot be considered a moral or good person.
God never condemns prostitutes. Not even once.
Jesus addressed the 10 Commandments and other commandments by going beyond them being wrong and that God will punish them for going against the law. He does that with the correction for these laws which will bring us joy, love and freedom. The Beatitude is a good example of this. Homosexuals want intimacy like everyone else and think people are attacking them for doing what everyone else does. They exclude the opposite sex from their intimacy because they hold grudges against them and think they were treated unfairly by them. Jesus gave us the general correction for prejudice whether it is against gender or race or other categories and that is always forgiveness. The rainbow people want to be proud of who they are and accepted regardless of their prejudices. I have known women who had been in abusive relationships and entered into lesbianism. They met men who helped them through their anger and were married.
All of this is strong and clear. Thank You. But, it saddens me so that the body, something so beautifully made - YOU - can become a place of such confusion. Personally, when I know my thoughts are in agreement with God there is no
confusion only contentment and His peace. This I pray for all those struggling with these terribly harmful thoughts.
Not perfect, but, perfectly made.
That Harry Potter game is AMAZING. Glad people are calming down about that already. Like, they have ZERO issue with other fantasy adaptation with wizards who are the good guy (i.e. Lord of the Rings) and even if they care, they are clueless when it comes to fantasy in general. I know it’s not the point but, FINALLY Christians aren’t being torn apart over nothing.
uhh i personally dont care if people play it or not but jk rowlling got money for that and they donate to groups that cause issues for transgender people .... they have every right to be pissed >.>
Preteens and teens that struggle socially or are just at an awkward age and trying to fit in, they can announce they are trans, ‘bi’, gay or whatever, suddenly get attention, acceptance and a badge of honor. Instantly they find the attention they want and a social circle that is, often, very openly antagonistic to God’s plan. Very deceptive and harmful for them to come to believe they have to change themselves to be accepted and be seen.
Yes, because gender dysphoria is the cool social acceptance thing, and biology after high school level is too hard, and learning new things and trying to understand because kids are kids, right...? Ahh, I wish you were right trust me
This is so tragic! The world is truly upside down.
Truth!
@@chaddonal4331 yes it's so upside down because people who don't want to educate themselves on biology more cause people hell by their ignorance
Totally agree. I also believe a lot of this woke crap is a fad and certainly done for attention.
First time viewer, As an Orthodox Christian from Nazareth of Galilee living in Florida, I found your podcast as spirit elevating and inspiring, God bless you and grant you GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ
Thank you so much! What is the best way to handle a co-worker that wants you to use their pro-nouns?
ummm realize that maybe just mabye they are struggling with a lot and it might put them at ease to use their pronouns and how it really doesnt effect you that much and ur helping someone
Very helpful. I think the tide here in UK may be already turning in terms of encouraging young children to identify as trans - as you mentioned, the clinic at the centre of puberty-blocking treatment has been forced to close. Interestingly, Frank, when I was eight, and like many of your friends, many of mine wanted to be space pilots or other exciting things, I wanted to be a doctor, and so the direction of my school education was simplified, and I did study medicine and worked as a Community Paediatrician. Incidentally, Joanne Rowling was brought up in church, and does consider herself a Christian, though not, I think, evangelical in outlook.
Thank you very much! (Sometimes I use the phrase "Biblically Correct".)
I bet you do 🤣
Hi, Alisa. I am a follower of Jesus Christ and my identity is in Christ alone. Up until last November I had a deep seated anger directed towards those in the church who condemned members of the LGBT community, many of whom would identify themselves as followers of Jesus Christ. I had an overwhelming experience of God's redeeming love in November and the gospel message suddenly made perfect sense to me and what Jesus Christ did on the cross became personal. I was aware of four things - firstly, God's holiness and righteousness, secondly the true nature of my sins, thirdly the awareness of the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ who bore my sin and paid the price for it by dying on the cross and after three days being raised from the dead in triumph, vindicating my redemption, and finally the necessity of my confessing my sin and surrendering my life into his hands, knowing that I was forgiven and cleansed of all unrighteousness. I still have to keep a short account of my thoughts, words and actions, so they are in line with his sovereign will. I now have a burden for my friends, their families and my own family, especially those who don't yet know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. My focus is on sharing the good news.
I'm watching you here in California ☺️❤️
What is a woman?
What is woke?
Why does one side have simple answers to these questions and the other side avoids them?
#1 You see a child drowning in a shallow pool and notice a person just watching that is able to save the child with no risk to themselves but is not, is that person moral?
#2 If you go to save the child, the man tells you to stop as he was told it was for the greater good, but he does not know what that is, do you continue to save the child or stop?
#3 Is it just to punish innocent people for the crimes of others?
#4 If you were able to stop it and knew a person was about to grape a child would you stop it?
#5 Would you consider an all knowing parent who put their kids in a room with a poison fruit and told the kids not to eat it but then also put a supernatural con artist in the room with the children knowing the con artist will get the kids to eat the fruit and the parent does nothing to stop it a good parent?
Going to avoid the simple moral questions or are you honest enough to answer them?
I am so looking forward to getting to listen to you two with Natasha Crain in Nashville! I so appreciate these conversations. I personally have been going through the transgender interactions since high school with different friendships over the years. One of my closet friend that I had stand with me on my wedding day has decided to aesthetically transition towards looking like a man and has changed her name as well. I’ve been going through this with her since 2018. Even more recently she sent me an invitation to her renaming ceremony with her progressive church in California. I’d love some more information on these ceremonies someday to get some insight and understanding on what, if anything, I ought to say to her or my children about this. I have many ideas, but I don’t fully understand the ceremonial practices so it’s hard to formulate a deep response to it.
I might be stepping into the wolf's den with this, but I would prefer your friend to have a good time. I know you do not believe transgender is a thing even though it is backed up by biology though I'm not here for that debate. You probably think it's a mental disorder or whatever I will say this if you care about your friend, it isn't hard to at least give them the respect of their wishes because, to him, this is a beautiful moment like a lot of weight being put off of them. Seeing what part of RUclips I'm on, I wonder if there will be interesting comments with people jumping to conclusions about what I believe. This will be fun to check later and see
I would be inclined to politely refuse, ideally making it clear that you love your friend but consider her action profoundly unwise, even if heartfelt.
@@Yawnyaman or you could not be a shitty excuse of a person and keep your opinion and religion to yourself and let the poor person be happy and not be ruined by someone they thought cared about them
Thank you, Frank and Alicia, for loving the truth, God, and people more than your comforts and popularity. Such an encouragement!❤
The core beliefs of Christianity can still be found in the Orthodox Church😇
Church leaders don’t speak out because they don’t understand the real meaning of love. Their idea of love is the avoidance of conflict or confrontation.
Very helpful & informative thank you to both
