@@darz3829Hello.. I do agree that truth need to meet those criteria you listed.. That it has to be measurable, testable (observable) and repeatable. That is the scientific method we call proof. However, this method can't be used in historical events. For example you can't go in the laboratory and prove that George Washington was once the president of the United States of America. Because his presidency is not measurable, testable and repeatable.. So in order to know that he was once the president, we use a method call evidentiary method (documents written by eyewitnesses). And that is exactly what we have in the Bible and in the gospels. It is not that truth is based on feelings or having faith that this is the truth (for Christians) but more exactly it is having reasonable amount of proof (testimony of the eyewitnesses) and then applying our faith to those truths
LOL...I always did that demo in my science class. I never thought of it as a devotional lesson. You actually did a better explanation of the science than any science teacher.
Then the science teachers must be really bad, because I don't think the molecules are rearranging, beyond the fact that they are stretching, and in being stretched they exert a restoring force. In other words, the monomers which make up the polymer do not disconnect and then reconnect with other monomers in a different configuration. What's happening here is that the tangled chains can move and stretch, and during that stretching the atoms that are bonded together become slightly pulled apart, and energy is stored in that bond, and that energy is available to pull that bond back together whenever it can. Compare with aluminum foil, where the atoms can move but they form new metallic bonds in their new positions and there is no restoring force pushing them back to where they were. Also important here is surface tension of the water (and the fact that the plastic is hydrophobic and not hydrophilic--it is made mostly of neutral C's and H's rather than O's; it is a petroleum product, and oil and water famously do not mix). Try it with soapy water and see if it still works. How would we find out what's happening at the molecular level? What experiment could we do, to prove or refute different theories or ideas about what's happening?

I'm so sorry. My dog Biscuit died seven years ago, and few tearless days have passed since then. She was the best Christian I've ever known and her loss haunts and hurts me still. May God give you comfort, love, and peace in your grief. And remember, 'not all tears are an evil'.
Good stuff. We home schooled and we did stuff like this with our kids. I remember having each child squeezing out a tube of toothpaste and seening If my kids can get it back in the tube and then of course they couldn't. And I told them that when you speak hurtful words you can't take them back... just like the toothpaste.
I like your analysis. God doesn't make your pet die, or people sick, or bad things happen. He gives us the strength to get through it. Sometimes when bad things happen there will be other good that comes out of it, and God helps us to find that too. Jesus will sit with the table with any and all of us. He doesn't force us to stay. When people don't want Jesus or God in their life they are free to choose that. A misunderstanding is to expect grace, protection or understanding if they have walked away. We aren't punished much in this life, we do it on our own. Gods grace allows one to walk back to the table and have a seat at any time.
That’s right God doesn’t do any of those things because it doesn’t exist you already have the strength to get through it like Dorothy said, she had the power within herself all along.
@@playinglifeoneasy9226why do you feel like taking away the faith from other people? If you can’t see intelligent design in creation is okay but don’t try to convince others to share your view!
"God doesn't make your pet die, or people sick, or bad things happen." (In Gen 2 &3) God killed an estimated 4 billion people in Noah's flood (that can be found in your bible). Plus all the animals (your pets) on earth. I can't think of a worse "bad thing"
You made my day Sister! We are Members Of The Church Of JesusChrist Of Latter-day Saints. This idea is a beautiful way to teach how JesusChrist is Our Savior and Redeemer 🙏🏼.
I think the reason sometimes it's hard to trust God is because what we see with our eyes is people especially our mother and father and if they are untrustworthy they had you for probably at least 18 years of brainwashing. My parents made us go to church, but they almost never talked about Jesus and when they did it was all twisted and then they abused us and didn't live as if they trusted Him. It helps to have people around you that are trustworthy, so you know what trust is.
YES, I agree with this so much. We need to have trustworthy, loving people around us. In fact, a 25 year longitudinal study following 35 families and how they practice their various faiths through the generations shows that kids are waaay more likely to adhere to their parents' faith if they have a good relationship with their parents. I'm so sorry that your experience was one of abuse and twisted faith.
I'm not sure why this video got recommended to me, and I don't wish to disrespect this Mom who obviously cares very much for her kids and for trying to teach good things in these videos. However, as a former Christian, (yes, I know, this is where Christians will tell me I never was a Christian if I left. I used to say the same thing myself when I was a believer) I can't accept that the BibleGod is a God of love at all. Not when the punishment is eternal hell for not believing. Imagine having someone tell you that they love you and want to have a relationship with you, BUT if you don't love them in return they will make sure you somehow "send yourself" to an eternal torture chamber that they made, and they'll never let you escape their torture chamber. For all eternity. I truly don't think it's possible to love a being like that. You could only fear him at best, and perhaps try to trick yourself into thinking you love him. But you could never love someone who threatens you with unimaginable torment for choosing not to love or believe in them.
@@IKARIANOFFICIAL That's a common understanding of hell. Here's how I understand it: Hell is merely the place God (and by definition: goodness) is not. So he allows us to choose whether to live life with him or not, and honors that choice even in death. Would you want to be with someone who forced you to do their will? Either way, I'm not here to force conversion on you, and I'm not not sure why this little video of mine is being served to tens of thousands of people who are not in my target audience, but thanks for leaving a comment.
@@BedtimeDevoMama Appreciate the reply, and I hope you don't take any of this personally, as it's simply the beliefs I'm not fond of. Though we must ask ourselves, if Hell is simply a place where God and goodness is not, then is the absence of God a lake fire? And does God remake our bodies with flesh like we have now that somehow never burns up in fire, but he makes sure we feel the searing pain of the fire for trillions of years just because we couldn't believe in some stories of the bible or perhaps never even heard of Jesus?
I feel you, Lucille! I am 9th of 10, hillbillies to the max! My parents did everything that we were forbidden to do. We never had a bible in the house, but were forbidden to play cards! We NEVER discussed religion, politics, weather: in fact, they didn't talk about much of anything, NEVER showed affection to one another or us, and the only thing we were instructed on was WORK: do this, do that! Better be done by the time I get home! Here! I have 3 ways to do everything: but I want YOU to do it the HARD way! Or else! Dad had a 7th grade education, mom couldn't read or write her own name. I hated life! God didn't live at our house. I am the only one to graduate high school; went into the military, came home, got more education, had TWO daughters, and learned to trust MY wits. In spite of EVERYTHING I tried to do RIGHT, EVERYthing turned to S**t. NOTHING good ever happened for longer than it took for people I trusted to make a total WRECK of it. I don't even trust ME anymore! Feel your pain, Lucille!
Such a good object lesson. Sometimes it’s very hard to “walk by faith and not by sight.” Bottom lime, Life is very hard. Jesus knew this and taught that “in this world, we WOULD have tribulations, troubles, and trials, but, be of good cheer, in other words, don’t worry, you are not alone. I will be there to help you when you have to walk through hard times, for I have overcome the world. So when we do face problems, know that He sees, and He is there. Call out to him and he will help you through those hard times. Thank you for the object lesson.❤️✝️🙏
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us into His image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. We cannot purify ourselves, but Christ lived that perfect sinless, pure life and then allotted it to our "account". That's where our righteousness comes from. Not from any good, works that you or I could do. It is not based on the amount of good works we do. God starts the changes, He carries it on, and He completes it in those who let Him. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him, again, through His power and instruction). He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if YOU had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, forgiveness, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way. NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER If you have any questions let me know xx I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.] John 16:33 - Amplified Bible
Thank you for making this video, Its said that if you cant explain something simply then you don't know enough about it to be doing any explaining in the first place. I feel that many people prepare to discuss and debate the hard and complex questions about faith yet time and time again are easily speechless or confounded by the simple and basic truths concepts and questions. It warms the heart to see this. Who better than a mother to explain something to a child ...expand that who better than a teacher mom to show others how to explain things as one would to a child, I like what you are doing with this, and I like the maternal nature rather than the paternal or more pastoral style so many others good intentions fall short of the mark doing. Faith made clear as a bag of water and Jesus to the point like a sharp pencil. As I said it warms the heart after all if one is wrong about Jesus it doesn't really matter what if anything at all else one is right about so teaching the basics is a wonderful idea. Thank you, I have a feeling one day the best words ever will be said to you, Well done my good and faithful servant, I pray I get to hear those words too.
Just know that I just tried to do this in youth church and water started pouring all over that kid 😂😂😂😂. I just reassured them that that’s why God is not a man that should lie, however, we obviously are 💀
I cried when I watched the experiment.... God is the plastic bag... We are the water inside Him. No matter what happen, He will be there to protect us... He took all to Himself on the cross... And He's still doing it right now. With Him we'll always save, no matter how bad the situations are. So believe in Him, abide in Him. Thank you so much for the video! God bless you!
Gravity is invisible, but the effects are ever present. We should Trust that God did create the universe and gave us a way to spend eternity in Heaven. There are no better alternatives
Such a good message, through hard times Gods will always be with you, footsteps in the sand two sets, once reaching water 💦 there was only one set of footsteps, I asked God why only one set of steps, he replied this is when I carried you as you could not swim. Have faith in our Lord Gid.

When we know the nature of polymers, we can trust them to act in accordance to their nature. When we know the nature of God, we can trust Him to act according to His nature, but He (God) always acts according to His timetable and according to our needs. God allows things to happen in our lives (like sharp pencils stabbing us) to decide if we will: 1) Trust God that ALL things will work together for our good or 2) Do as Job's wife told Job: "Curse God and die." It is always our choice...

Beautifully done. God bless you sister and your family too 🙏 ✝️❤.
Thanks, be blessed in Jesus's name !!
This was really neat, I can't wait for my husband and I to have kids so I can show them Biblical lessons like this!
If sticking a pencil through a plastic bag is considered a biblical lesson then stay single, a and I would advise you husband to run like hell.
That's not a biblical lesson, - fool
Wow! Simple and profound. Thank you for making and sharing this video.
“Our pet died”….. that exactly happened to me on Sunday.. I needed to hear this today. Thank you. 🙏🏼
sooo sorry for your loss💔😥it is a difficult process☮
@@rockandroller8352 Well, I just sacrificed some animals on my back yard altar for a burnt offering to the Lord. A burnt sacrifice of animals is an AROMA most PLEASING to the Lord. -Leviticus 1:9. Praise the Lord!
I'm so sorry. My dog Biscuit died seven years ago, and few tearless days have passed since then. She was the best Christian I've ever known and her loss haunts and hurts me still. May God give you comfort, love, and peace in your grief. And remember, 'not all tears are an evil'.
Common pet 😂
@@emmanueletim1753 Go away, you heartless prick.
Good stuff. We home schooled and we did stuff like this with our kids. I remember having each child squeezing out a tube of toothpaste and seening If my kids can get it back in the tube and then of course they couldn't. And I told them that when you speak hurtful words you can't take them back... just like the toothpaste.
Still watching-(2024) I needed this…
This is a fantastic lesson.
God is great!
And HE loves us!!!
❤I’m super impressed we will do this on the first day of school ❤
Thank you. You deserve a medal.
I like your analysis.
God doesn't make your pet die, or people sick, or bad things happen.
He gives us the strength to get through it. Sometimes when bad things happen there will be other good that comes out of it, and God helps us to find that too.
Jesus will sit with the table with any and all of us. He doesn't force us to stay.
When people don't want Jesus or God in their life they are free to choose that. A misunderstanding is to expect grace, protection or understanding if they have walked away.
We aren't punished much in this life, we do it on our own.
Gods grace allows one to walk back to the table and have a seat at any time.
That’s right God doesn’t do any of those things because it doesn’t exist you already have the strength to get through it like Dorothy said, she had the power within herself all along.
@@playinglifeoneasy9226
@@playinglifeoneasy9226why do you feel like taking away the faith from other people? If you can’t see intelligent design in creation is okay but don’t try to convince others to share your view!
"God doesn't make your pet die, or people sick, or bad things happen."
(In Gen 2 &3) God killed an estimated 4 billion people in Noah's flood (that can be found in your bible). Plus all the animals (your pets) on earth. I can't think of a worse "bad thing"
@@darz3829they were warned and chose to laugh...and mock God Almighty...kind of like you 💕✝️
This is a good hands on illustration. Also, thanks for explaining how the polymer works in simple terms!
Incredible. Thanks for posting!
You made my day Sister! We are Members Of The Church Of JesusChrist Of Latter-day Saints. This idea is a beautiful way to teach how JesusChrist is Our Savior and Redeemer 🙏🏼.
This really touched my heart today. Thank you v
The bag is a good depiction of what my life looks like, and taking the pencils out would show how my life would be if I stopped trusting in God
I think the reason sometimes it's hard to trust God is because what we see with our eyes is people especially our mother and father and if they are untrustworthy they had you for probably at least 18 years of brainwashing. My parents made us go to church, but they almost never talked about Jesus and when they did it was all twisted and then they abused us and didn't live as if they trusted Him. It helps to have people around you that are trustworthy, so you know what trust is.
YES, I agree with this so much. We need to have trustworthy, loving people around us. In fact, a 25 year longitudinal study following 35 families and how they practice their various faiths through the generations shows that kids are waaay more likely to adhere to their parents' faith if they have a good relationship with their parents. I'm so sorry that your experience was one of abuse and twisted faith.
I'm not sure why this video got recommended to me, and I don't wish to disrespect this Mom who obviously cares very much for her kids and for trying to teach good things in these videos. However, as a former Christian, (yes, I know, this is where Christians will tell me I never was a Christian if I left. I used to say the same thing myself when I was a believer) I can't accept that the BibleGod is a God of love at all. Not when the punishment is eternal hell for not believing.
Imagine having someone tell you that they love you and want to have a relationship with you, BUT if you don't love them in return they will make sure you somehow "send yourself" to an eternal torture chamber that they made, and they'll never let you escape their torture chamber. For all eternity. I truly don't think it's possible to love a being like that. You could only fear him at best, and perhaps try to trick yourself into thinking you love him. But you could never love someone who threatens you with unimaginable torment for choosing not to love or believe in them.
@@IKARIANOFFICIAL That's a common understanding of hell. Here's how I understand it: Hell is merely the place God (and by definition: goodness) is not. So he allows us to choose whether to live life with him or not, and honors that choice even in death. Would you want to be with someone who forced you to do their will?
Either way, I'm not here to force conversion on you, and I'm not not sure why this little video of mine is being served to tens of thousands of people who are not in my target audience, but thanks for leaving a comment.
@@BedtimeDevoMama Appreciate the reply, and I hope you don't take any of this personally, as it's simply the beliefs I'm not fond of.
Though we must ask ourselves, if Hell is simply a place where God and goodness is not, then is the absence of God a lake fire?
And does God remake our bodies with flesh like we have now that somehow never burns up in fire, but he makes sure we feel the searing pain of the fire for trillions of years just because we couldn't believe in some stories of the bible or perhaps never even heard of Jesus?
I feel you, Lucille! I am 9th of 10, hillbillies to the max! My parents did everything that we were forbidden to do. We never had a bible in the house, but were forbidden to play cards! We NEVER discussed religion, politics, weather: in fact, they didn't talk about much of anything, NEVER showed affection to one another or us, and the only thing we were instructed on was WORK: do this, do that! Better be done by the time I get home! Here! I have 3 ways to do everything: but I want YOU to do it the HARD way! Or else! Dad had a 7th grade education, mom couldn't read or write her own name. I hated life! God didn't live at our house. I am the only one to graduate high school; went into the military, came home, got more education, had TWO daughters, and learned to trust MY wits. In spite of EVERYTHING I tried to do RIGHT, EVERYthing turned to S**t. NOTHING good ever happened for longer than it took for people I trusted to make a total WRECK of it. I don't even trust ME anymore! Feel your pain, Lucille!
Well, I am 4 times older than most kids and I found that lesson astonishing! Great way to teach kids by demonstration. This kid here learned a lot.
I trust God because HE is the Highest🥺
Do you trust Snoop Dog or Willie Nelson?
Highest what exactly?
@@moonshoes11 Those two are just Humans, we humans all sin, also I don’t know them well.

@@GodLovesUs.LoveOurGod
Sin requires the existence of a God.
And as such, sin is a silly concept.
Such a good object lesson. Sometimes it’s very hard to “walk by faith and not by sight.” Bottom lime, Life is very hard. Jesus knew this and taught that “in this world, we WOULD have tribulations, troubles, and trials, but, be of good cheer, in other words, don’t worry, you are not alone. I will be there to help you when you have to walk through hard times, for I have overcome the world. So when we do face problems, know that He sees, and He is there. Call out to him and he will help you through those hard times. Thank you for the object lesson.❤️✝️🙏
Yes, thank you for your kind comment! This world is a hard place sometimes, but I am so glad God walks with me through it all.
simply an illustrated sermon, good job, we are never to old to learn....
Yes, learn science instead of the "supernatural."
This is AMAZING!!! I have a six year old who gets upset sometimes. This is perfect. Thank you.
JESUS CHRIST is my my GOD my savior.
Even if he didn't want to have to do anything with you?
The Lord placed you in my feed today because He knew I needed to hear these words and see your example. Thank you for reminding me.
Great lesson. Thank you!
Thanks for this awesome lesson. Sending this to my daughter who teaches children with a Bible class in her neighborhood.
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans
. The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom.
If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us into His image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. We cannot purify ourselves, but Christ lived that perfect sinless, pure life and then allotted it to our "account".
That's where our righteousness comes from. Not from any good, works that you or I could do.
It is not based on the amount of good works we do. God starts the changes, He carries it on, and He completes it in those who let Him.
It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him, again, through His power and instruction).
He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if YOU had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.
He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, forgiveness, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.
NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER
If you have any questions let me know xx
I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.]

If my future wife is a mom like this, we all making it to heaven
Wonderful lesson! Thank you 😊❤😇
Great lesson as a 40 year old woman I feel I learned something here this was a short but sweet sermon
This is an even better object lesson for not removing an impaling object from an injury
I had to lsten to the end 3x , as I thought you said "as well as the proclamation to the family"....which would be a cool thing to send out, too
Thank you for making this video, Its said that if you cant explain something simply then you don't know enough about it to be doing any explaining in the first place. I feel that many people prepare to discuss and debate the hard and complex questions about faith yet time and time again are easily speechless or confounded by the simple and basic truths concepts and questions. It warms the heart to see this. Who better than a mother to explain something to a child ...expand that who better than a teacher mom to show others how to explain things as one would to a child, I like what you are doing with this, and I like the maternal nature rather than the paternal or more pastoral style so many others good intentions fall short of the mark doing. Faith made clear as a bag of water and Jesus to the point like a sharp pencil. As I said it warms the heart after all if one is wrong about Jesus it doesn't really matter what if anything at all else one is right about so teaching the basics is a wonderful idea. Thank you, I have a feeling one day the best words ever will be said to you, Well done my good and faithful servant, I pray I get to hear those words too.
A science and lesson in faith -- excellent!
So good to see someone like you in today’s world! Thank you! This is great ❤
Just know that I just tried to do this in youth church and water started pouring all over that kid 😂😂😂😂. I just reassured them that that’s why God is not a man that should lie, however, we obviously are 💀
Oh no!!!! I've never had one leak before and I've done it dozens of times. Sorry it didn't work for you! Well done on the quick application 😂
Maybe you used a different brand of bag haha but it’s ok
@@ChristinaKent-su8ze do the pencils need to be cilindrical and not hexagonal?
@@ChristinaKent-su8zethe bag probably wasn’t a polymer bag. In the video she explains why polymer bags don’t leak. 😊
So just spinning any old shit to sell your story then? Religion sucks.
Thank you for this video. I tried it today for children’s church and it worked great. Hopefully the kids understand more about faith
This is so amazing 🙌🏽
I cried when I watched the experiment.... God is the plastic bag... We are the water inside Him. No matter what happen, He will be there to protect us... He took all to Himself on the cross... And He's still doing it right now. With Him we'll always save, no matter how bad the situations are. So believe in Him, abide in Him. Thank you so much for the video! God bless you!
And because of the same reason you don't remove a knife or a shard if it's in you
Excellent video, praise Christ Jesus
Gravity is invisible, but the effects are ever present.
We should Trust that God did create the universe and gave us a way to spend eternity in Heaven.
There are no better alternatives
That’s sad…that living this life is not appreciated as it should be, only looking to some illusory heaven after this life.
I am going to show this lesson to my kiddos. You have another sub sister. God is good.
Cool lesson! Where can I get these polymer bags🤔?
You have no idea how much you helped thank you

This is really beautiful and meaningful for people of all ages - you are a wonderful person for sharing this!
Myself my spouse and our children praise and thank our omnipresent omniscient omnipotent creator 🙏
Christie, my compliments to you on sharing this. I think some adults might need to see this as well, with all the doubt and negativity in the world.
This was a really fun lesson on trusting God. I’ll be using it today at church. Thank you!
Such a good message, through hard times Gods will always be with you, footsteps in the sand two sets, once reaching water 💦 there was only one set of footsteps, I asked God why only one set of steps, he replied this is when I carried you as you could not swim. Have faith in our Lord Gid.
I get the science. Not sure how the trusting God ties into this.
Thanks for the video. It was a nice surprise for me! I’m a 3 sons father and need some way to talk about God with them. Hugs from Brazil!!! 😊
Beautiful object lesson or science lesson - whatever you call it....very motivating video to keep watching and listening again and again
Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼 🥳
Thank you for this lesson. 🤓👍
God bless you

Amen we can always trust God❤🙏🏾
You mean science!
@@TerryCrosslin so science will get me to heaven no I think not the main objective of the lesson is that we can trust in God and it was represented by Science
@@dellangalomba There's no heaven kiddo.
@@lsl-wo3rh God doesn’t force religion and neither do I but it’s important to spread the word of God.If you don’t believe me the last days are coming and Jesus will come back.Don’t believe me now if you want
@@dellangalomba You are believing it because you fear death. You want heaven to exist because you are scared of death and you don't know about your end or you don't accept your end. You naturally want to live forever, every living being wants that but no one achieves it. Your fear of death made you believe religion and god but none will save you, when it's the time you are gonna die. Fear is your god nothing else. You say god doesn't force you to believe but your people do. I used to be a muslim but i saw the truth and stopped believing.
I like the fact that you explained why the bag didn’t leak after pushing pencils through it.
This is the same I ask of God, please explain yourself.
Trying to prove trust in God with experiment and then explaining the science behind experiment.
I really feel sorry for them poor kids
I Agree, it's disgraceful
When we know the nature of polymers, we can trust them to act in accordance to their nature.
When we know the nature of God, we can trust Him to act according to His nature, but He (God) always acts according to His timetable and according to our needs. God allows things to happen in our lives (like sharp pencils stabbing us) to decide if we will:
1) Trust God that ALL things will work together for our good or
2) Do as Job's wife told Job: "Curse God and die."
It is always our choice...
@@GaryPatterson-p3o
You just did the same word association as in the video
the difference is
YOU CAN PROVE THE POLYMER
YOU KNOW ITS' NATURE
YOU CAN'T PROVE GOD
OR HIS NATURE
I mean... Where ?
The bible ?
if that's your answer, you should know the bible isn't god's word
but....
You can't prove god or his nature
so your analogy doesn't hold up
But you do have to start brain washing them at a young age, whether it's a convolued way or not. Now explain to them that one is science based and the other is mythology and totally unprovable.
This was awesome. Thank you for sharing!! Will be used tonight for an object lesson for my youth.
It really a amazing object lesson i love it..
Thank you so much I needed this illustration today!!
