Resurrection sign, shroud sign, for those who don't hear Jesus saying; the only sign is that of Jonah. A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of [a]the prophet Jonah.” And He left them and departed. How can anyone keep from laughing at some podium jockeys? Theologians grant Doctorates as if we were dealing with a science having fantasyland vocabulary. We know this wolf in sheep's clothing by their practice of indoctrinating children with their fantasyland narrative, & their vocabulary of The Garden of Eden. Freud wrote, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy." I don't teach Christians because I expect them to learn, I teach them because they are illiterate.
This idea of leaving Atheism shows a total misconception of what Atheism is, it is not an ideology or a belief, it is simply a lack of belief so it is incorrect to say one has left it. I don't belief in the tooth fairy but it does not mean I am part of an ideological group and I somehow can leave such a group, it is simply a lack of belief. You channel consistently exposes itself as totally misunderstanding about Atheism, because it is not a ideological group that somehow follows common values you cannot attribute it as been against religion or somehow a threat, Atheist values come from many subjective personal views and experiences from the scientific approach of lack of verifiable evidence to simply having no interest in the subject matter and not entertaining such. How about trying to argue your ideology by proving God exists ? You cannot, no one has ever done so and the best we often see is using the bible to prove the bible which is a logical fallacy, the desperation of the church to try push its message has simply come down to attacking others to make Christianity look like the logical obvious choice, it is called misdirection simply because you have no real method anymore of to convince ppl to belief a God exists.
Not sure if youll see this, but i wanted to tell you that i was an atheist for the first 30 years of my life. Raised in an athiest / agnostic home. In the past couple of years, jordan Peterson and your videos have played a massive role in me taking a second look at Christianity. I am not quite there yet, but interviews like this are extremely compelling. Thank you so much for the content, it is has been absolutely mind blowing to say the least. Thank you and happy easter to you and your family.
Go have an in depth look into the science of Cell structures. Start with Kinesin Motor Proteins and their job within the cell and I guarantee you will start to question everything you have been taught up until now. Basically the deeper science digs for the answers the closer they get to admitting that this is all by brilliant design. God Bless 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
I'm in the same ballpark as you. I was an atheist/agnostic from 18 to 35. Jordan Peterson introduced me to another way to view religion, and about a month ago I found Christ! And in finding Christ, I found also the Holy Spirit, which has brought me a joy I didn't know existed. After reading your post, I sent out a prayer for you, someone I don't know, with tears in my eyes, that you find Christ and God, and in doing so the Holy Spirit. Good luck on your faith journey, brother!
As the Bible states ... Seek and ye shall find. In three months I'll be 80. I had to reach the age of 79 starting at a very early age of studying and inquiry to get to the point that it finally hit me like a ton of bricks and I had absolutely no doubt that God and Jesus the Messiah are true. Thank and praise be to God. I see the world heading in a terrible direction but I, for the first time have absolutely no fear.
Praise our Loving Savior & God of Love ❤️ When I understood God standing outside of time saw all that would transpire & knew before he created us that to reconcile us back to Him, Jesus would die as He did. And that He still created us! Revelation 13:8 What wondrous Love is this? Oh my soul!
So there are apparently multiple gods running around then as my Hindu neighbor and friend alleges he was visited by Brahma, Krishna and Vishnu and Krishna picked up his bhagivad gita and moved it from one end of the room, to the other.
This is amazing. I'm a recently converted and baptized follower of Christ (recent as in just a few months) and some of my biggest hangups have been being able to connect science to the book of Genesis, not just creation, but the events thereafter. These videos offer great insight for all the toughest questions for the most questioning believers, such as myself. I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that Christ is our savior, have already experienced the Holy Spirit and, as he said at the end, feel myself less inclined to sin. I don't drink anymore, I no longer pursue lustful temptations, I don't swear as much (still drop a few, but getting better), not depressed, and learned to manage my anger. Your videos have been very helpful in solidifying my faith, especially the discussions with Frank Turek.
You have a scientific background? Maybe you can help me with some scientific problems from just the first 2 pages: The Genesis 1 creation account conflicts with the order of events that are known to science. In Genesis, the earth is created before light and stars, birds and whales before reptiles and insects, and flowering plants before any animals. The order of events known from science is just the opposite. 1:1-2:3 God creates light and separates light from darkness, and day from night, on the first day. Yet he didn't make the light producing objects (the sun and the stars) until the fourth day (1:14-19). And how could there be "the evening and the morning" on the first day if there was no sun to mark them? 1:3-5 God spends one-sixth of his entire creative effort (the second day) working on a solid firmament. This strange structure, which God calls heaven, is intended to separate the higher waters from the lower waters. 1:6-8 Plants are made on the third day before there was a sun to drive their photosynthetic processes (1:14-19). 1:11 God lets "the earth bring forth" the plants, rather than creating them directly. Maybe Genesis is not so anti-evolution after all. 1:11 In an apparent endorsement of astrology, God places the sun, moon, and stars in the firmament so that they can be used "for signs". This, of course, is exactly what astrologers do: read "the signs" in the Zodiac in an effort to predict what will happen on Earth. 1:14 God makes two lights: "the greater light [the sun] to rule the day, and the lesser light [the moon] to rule the night." But the moon is not a light, but only reflects light from the sun. And why, if God made the moon to "rule the night", does it spend half of its time moving through the daytime sky? 1:16 "He made the stars also." God spends a day making light (before making the stars) and separating light from darkness; then, at the end of a hard day's work, and almost as an afterthought, he makes the trillions of stars. 1:16
@@aaronharlow2137 "and some of my biggest hangups have been being able to connect science to the book of Genesis". Well if your god is real then how did you demonstrate him to be real?
I don't understand how all people that know the universe like this man aren't Christians. They see God's work all close and personal. There's so much proof there.
This man is extremely succinct in what he has to say, and his thoughts flow seamlessly from one to the next as he delivers an answer or shares his testimony. There’s no dead time, no wasted breathes, none of that. I pray that my atheist astrophysics loving friends will listen to this when I share it.
yes, he explains the cosmos well, but then concludes it had to be made by a guy who wants us to sacrifice our children to him. Hugh Ross is proof that we are evolved from superstitious apes.
@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic What's the point? We don't compare well people to sick people. But we do compare superstitious people to the reality that surrounds them.
The flow and articulation of every word coming out of Dr Ross's mouth is considered and very direct, simple and clear. I've never heard a speaker like this before and I'm many, many decades old.
From my understanding, this is somewhat common. If we're honest with ourselves... there is plenty of evidence. We just do not like to admit we are sinners in need of a savior. So people come up with ANYTHING else that they can reach for... it's pathetic and sad, but it's what we seem to do. Jesus is real, knock, and He WILL answer. God bless.
My Hindu neighbor and friend alleges he was visited by Brahma, Krishna and Vishnu and Krishna picked up his bhagivad gita and moved it from one end of the room to the other. I don't believe him, but that's better than the typical "I felt the holy spirit" that Jesus followers typically like to use as proof
Oh wow. Is that doctor Hugh? He runs reason to believe. Because of his website, my belief in Jesus strengthened. I am an engineer and I was able to relate to his work from an empirical standpoint. Thank you doctor for your website. And thank you for this channel.
I’ve been listening to Dr. Hugh Ross for many years. He is a brilliant man who can help answer many of the questions we have regarding science and faith.
What a fascinating testimony from Hugh Ross, so appreciative you making this interview and then making it available to the masses. I'm a believer and was even a Pastor and Dr Ross shared several things I wasn't aware of, thanks for sharing.
Once again, I am reminded of that quote by Sir Francis Bacon: "A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion." So many scientists and other well-educated persons end up leaving atheism for theism. And so many of those theists eventually come to Christ. Hallelujah!
@@attackhelicopter-up3dh , LOL!!! Really? From WHENCE did you pull that number? Your own rectum? First, DEFINE what criteria you used to determine who the "top scientists" were. After that, SHOW US the SCHOLARLY evidence that only 7% of these people have a religion. I have seen several studies that indicate that scientists are as likely to be theists as the general population.
@@Michelle-Davis lmao I love all the people that say that and it’s based on faith. You do realize that atheists “believe” that the universe created itself with absolutely no proof of that statement. The irony of it is hilarious to me.
Not a little number compared to what? You have to plot it against the percentage of non-atheists in the winners' home countries at the time of their win. Also, the quota rising when you include more disciplines means that non-atheists are less successful in winning a noble prize in physics than in other categories.
@@elvancor I agree in some aspects...of course, I have friends who are atheists...my contention is about anti-theists that write about the non existent theists into science fields.... that's all.... I'm not your enemy....
@@elvancor A). The rate of belief in their host country is not the cause of a Nobel Prize-winning physicist choosing belief in God lol, these are independent thinkers. B). It's a Nobel Prize, not a noble prize.
Genuine question... how did you decide on what God to believe in? I've read the book 'After' and some people met Jesus, some met other gods, and some point experienced a light/warmth or peaceful scene.
@@nonyabidness5708 He read about all of the other false gods of all the other religions. Process of elimination and when he read The Holy Bible, he saw in fact that God is real because there are zero contradictions in scripture. Contradictions in every other false religion.
❤thank you so much. I was struggling in my Faith to articulate the truths spoken on in this Video by High Ross. My Son was asking me and I was failing miserably. But I realize I missed the fundamental truth. He is Perfect. And I need him. As My Master. Humbled and Loved again. Thank You.🙏
Your guest, Dr. Ross is amazing and so respectful in his work and expertise AND your trout hat is superb. Keep doing what you’re doing and God Bless 🙏❤️
This brilliant & humble man will share his story over & over again & spend time with anyone, regardless of how big or how small their podcast is! He has helped me know & appreciate God so much bigger! ❤
- Jesus was crucified on a ***Wednesday*** as the prophecy in the Old Covenant/Testament Book of Daniel foretold which happened. Jesus rose on Saturday before the evening which marks the next day on Israelite calendar [after 6pm is considered the next day]. - It's not Easter which is a pagan holiday, it's actually Passover, the Apostles would have ***never*** celebrated a pagan holiday. Catholicism has made the much of the world believe Easter/ISHTAR is a New Covenant/Testament holiday. It may be argued with strong support, that Scripturally the Catholic Church is the home of the Antichrist system, and false Israel _[Juuz]_ are in control of the Roman Catholic Church, since God/Jesus foretold the final kingdom/empire of mankind _[the kingdom/empire of the Antichrist]_ that will rule before He returns is described in one way as **A woman who rides the best** - the woman represents spiritual haroltry _[what most Israelites did in the Old Covenant/Testament, they would fall into worship of the false 'gods' of pagan nations thus cheating on God/Jesus many times],_ the arguable one world religiion will be the religion of the Antichrist _[ecumenalism]_ which most of the world will embrace _[2Timothy3:1-9 and many other proof text verses],_ and the beast is the ruthless final kingdom / empire that will arise like how Rome was a ruthless kingdom - thus, the Roman Pontiff wears the yarmulke and i once saw a video where the "Rabbi" admits they took over the Roman Catholic Church circa 1000 A.D., so the Roman Pontiff is apparently always a Ju. You must NOT call him "Pope" _[hence why i refer to him as the Roman Pontiff]_ which means "Spiritual Father" which is blasphemous abomination since Jesus taught there is only one Father, HIM in Heaven, and to call no man "Rabbi" _[Master]_ for there is only one that is Jesus the Christ/the _[only]_ God.
That was really a great interview and testimony. Thanks for putting it out there. I am saved, but I never got answers to some of my questions regarding creation and how God meshes with science. I appreciate these videos bringing understanding to me about that. God bless you and your family and your guests. 🙏
I love this dude. I watched some of his stuff and was blown away, just ordered 2 of his books. Thank you for bringing him to my attention :) And keep up the good work you do on this channel! May God bless and keep blessing you and this work abundantly. In Jesus name
I love your podcast. I've been a science guy forever. abandoned the Catholic Church at 12 yrs old. I became an evolutionary Atheist until God knocked me on the head over and over again! Ha! At 30yrs old i was incarcerated for a dumb alcohol thing,i picked up a Bible from the shelf, read it, and read it, And i was Blown away by the consistency,and the spirit of the message, insanely seeming like it's only one author. Well, i found out that it is written by God. The Spiraling of Galaxies,the behavior of Hurricanes, the way the drain goes down the sink.
Not sure how or why you would have ever been an evolutionist when even Darwin debunked his own theory on it. It is a self defeating worldview once in debate. Same with naturalism.
He has lead thousands to faith in Christ. His testimonies of the events and circumstances in how God has used him to bring someone to eternal life is awesome.
I was worried about losing my faith when I started to study biology and chemistry at college...however, the deeper I got in science, the stronger my faith was, when I saw how amazing and fascinating life is.
@@KaterinaKronesova that's awesome. I on the other hand was told that we weren't going to talk about God or to try to prove Him but was soon taught that we came from apes, it certainly has affected many's faith in my opinion.
Someone commented that he couldn’t understand why many who are familiar with the universe aren’t Christians. It bothers me too. I am a Christian and the more I learn about science; the universe, quantum mechanics, strings theory, etc, the more I see the confirmation of what the bible is saying. God is omnipresent, science confirmed it in quantum physics. On and on. Thank you for the show.
It's interesting to compare this video with Brandon's earlier presentation "Atheist MIT Professor Converts to Christianity After Discovering THIS", about Rosalind Picard. Both Rosalind and Hugh were raised in non-Christian households, started exploring big existential questions in their mid-teens, went through a "comparative religion" phase, then accepted Christianity during their undergraduate years.
The authentic austere Scriptural Jesus the Christ taught "The Way" _[mentioned at least several times in the New Testament]_ not "Christianity" _[hence why you do not see the word "Christianity" in the Scriptures]._ It's Catholicism who has so incomprehensibly, ineffably, unfathomably and successfully deceived most the world for circa 1700+ years to believe that supposedly the authentic austere Scriptural Jesus the Christ taught "Christianity" which is indisputably Roman poly-theist paganism religion of the Roman Empire mixed with lukewarm/Revelation 3:15-16 false teachings _[truth mixed with untruth]_ in the same time frame and that supposedly a true born again remnant believer _[John 3:1-21 qualified adopted child of the the true Scriptural Jesus]_ are supposed to call themselves "Christian." I strongly encourage you to look up this article on the net at the ecclesia site. *"Should we call ourselves a Christian? Richard Anthony"*
@@kos-mos1127 Ahhh there you are again, son of Chaos/the Antichrist. ***The reasonably sound and logically overt fallacious natures of the "FSM" **_[flying spaghetti argument]_** argument*** Here are the two self-destructing out of many other problems with this childish, underwit, paralysingly stultus, mass of imbecile "argument"; 1. First, comparing God _[whose name is Jesus]_ with a flying spaghetti monster commits the fatally ill-reasoned and illogical error of ***faulty analogy.*** 2. Second, just because something is improbable does not rule out its existence. For example, all honest operational scientists, admit that mankind's very existence is inordinately improbable, especially mathematically impossible. Those same honest operational scientific scholars acknowledge that it is against all mathematical odds that all of the universe's cosmic constants and biological mechanisms necessary for life would come to be. And yet, ***mankind does exist.***
His infinite multiverse explanation is exactly right. This kind of philosophy has been debated for centuries and it was debunked by Thomas Aquinas very thoroughly, who was a brilliant rationalist. The gist is, The study of cause and effect will render that everything has a cause. Every single idea about what the universe is, is necessarily finite and therefore it had to have been caused. So therefore there must be an uncaused cause, a necessary being. Not a thing, nor an energy, but existence itself. This is what we call 'God'. And because we know that things which are finite, even fields and forces, have no creative power, then this being must be a 'person'. This being cannot be lesser than anything or any finite idea, but always greater than every idea and every thing, even time and space no matter how large and mathematically infinite we try to make it. 'and this is the greatest knowledge of God we can have in this life, that we know him to be greater than every thought we were ever able to think of him.'
@@Nahash5150 “Everything has a cause.” You literally typed that out as a fact. Then two sentences later, you not only contradicted your claim but you also made a new convenient un-caused cause that is also conveniently a being. Even if it exists, which you’d or someone would have to prove first, why does it have to be a being? And if it exists, then it needs a cause and on and on. All of which is to say that you’re engaging in what’s called special pleading, which is basically a “rules for thee, but not for me” double standard.
@@bearde_mut9731 don’t accuse me of assuming, when that is exactly what you are doing with your god. Not only are you assuming that thing exists, but you’re also assuming it is eternal. How do you know either of those are true, and better yet can you demonstrate it? It looks and sounds like you are trying to talk your god into existence. And if you are going to make an exception fr this god not needing a cause, (AKA special pleading), then why can’t the universe do the same by not having a cause? Maybe the universe is eternal, and it just collapses and expands over and over. Regardless, I do NOT assume to know the origin of reality and this universe, and I’m Ok with admitting that. You should try that out, but you’ll need some humility first. Edit: almost forgot, as far as we know, there was never no matter. Evidence shows it was all condensed into a singularity, which eventually “exploded” and interacted to develop what we now call our universe. If you claim your god existed somehow outside of time, space and matter then you are effectively saying it “existed” at no time, in no place and with no parts at all. That’s a something came from nothing argument.
@@bearde_mut9731 the only feelings I have on this matter are amusement and slight frustration with your special pleading nonsense. I do not care whether or not the Big Bang or any other scientific proposal is wrong because I’m not emotionally attached to it, so i just go where the truth is. Can you say the same about your god beliefs? One thing I will emphasize is that you are clearly not understanding the basic premise of the Big Bang. Matter was not created by the Big Bang. The matter was already there, so stop misrepresenting the theory. Now why it was there, I do not know and will (edit: not claim) to know. You however are claiming there is some kind of entity that existed before all this and presumably made itself and the universe out of nothing. How you know that is a mystery that you have yet to answer, which is why I’m amused and frustrated. Regardless, have a nice day.
Around 1998 Hugh Ross came to speak at my college. As a Christian is was eye opening to hear how much science actually pointed to God. This was one of the pivotal events in my young adult life that helped me cling to my Christianity when lots of worldly things including my own actions were trying to drag me away. God Bless this brother in Christ.
Try living through the great purge that MSM went on. As they destroyed TV preachers as if it was a Sport. As I lived through it and Dawkins non Sceintific Claims. As Science become his religion. When Science is a Profession in search of the Truth..
It’s true. I didn’t believe, I was a rebellious son. I finally asked God to give me strength to defeat evil. He did, and it was the most amazing experience I ever had. I wish to someday be in the Presence and Glory of our Father God, because if what I felt is a small small portion of the Good He Is, then I want to know the rest. Father Have Mercy on us sinners, every new day is a chance to seek Him out. Don’t run out of time! We do not know when we will die and that’s when your time is up to repent. No more chances after that.
I was baptized young and wasn’t familiar with God, I embraced darkness and betrayed God but he still pulled me out, without me asking for help. I was so used to the darkness that I didn’t think I needed help. It was when I was in the lights that I realized how deep I have fallen, and how protected I was. I’m extremely grateful. I’m so blessed that I think it’s unfair for others. My grandad was a priest, I guess that’s why.
It really does once you decide to attribute it all to the particular god or theism of your choice! Glory to the Greek Pantheon for creating such an amazing reality!
@@Li-Jester nope, people acting under orders they may have believed came from that God did. Huge distinction. And the destruction of a society by another does not verify the religious truth of the conqueror does it? If that were true, then for a long while a pantheon of Gods is the true religion! Or any other religion that happened to occupy the conquerers society.
4:48 The holy book he says is the Enuma Elish. I couldn't understand him amd the CC doesn't spell is correctly. I thought leave a comment in case anyone else looks for it too.
Why don't you inquire about this yourself. If you are genuinely seeking truth God will reveal it to you. Pray about it. I'll give you a hint that sacrifice was never going to happen....God always knew that. Why/how bc He's God💚
@@harleysvacations625 However if God is all knowing he know Lucifer would turn on him and he knew Adam and Eve would fail his test and the serpent would tempt them, he wanted evil, he wanted humans to fail, that's what all knowing means he know it all would happen before he even created Lucifer or Adam and Eve and still did it knowing the consequences, even knowing it would lead to the flood and Christs' sacrifice and he still did it knowing all that. The very idea of a perfect being like God makes all kinds of paradoxes, for example, can God create something that even he can't lift? If he can, then he isn't all powerful because he can't lift it, if he can't then he isn't all powerful because he can't create it because all powerful means he can do anything, make anything, lift anything, there is no limit on all powerful, that very idea doesn't work when even doing thought experiments, just creates paradoxes.
Somebody said that little science leads one away from God, but more of it leads one to HIM. That man didn't read a few articles and declared himself an atheist, like many do nowadays, neither did he rebuke all the abundant evidences in order to protect his beliefs; he was sincere and eagerly seeking for Truth and he found it. A beautiful testimony! 😢 Beautiful indeed!
That man i think you are referring to is Louis Pasteur the founder of microbiology and immunobiology; *"Little science takes you away from God, but more of it takes you to Him."*
@@bearde_mut9731it’s a play on words more than it is a fallacy. This channel’s strategy is to tear down conventional logic and replace it with caricatures. Just call it an argument from ignorance fallacy, if that’s even what’s been committed. Theists make that argument primarily. But that’s the point of the caricature. To pretend theism and atheism are logically equal when they’re not.
Hugh Ross is openly defiant of the Noah’s flood account, maintaining it was only a regional phenomenon. Genesis 7:19 plainly states, “And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.” Because he lacks understanding of this simple statement, I do not consider him to be a reliable teacher. 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 4 “(for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” It seems to me that he places his own reasoning above the only factual reporting on the subject we have, the Word of God.
There is quite literally no evidence that there was a global flood at any time since modern humans have existed. But there is an incredible amount of evidence of flooding between the Tigress and Euphrates rivers. This would have been the entire known world at the time of the flood story. Every Mesopotamian culture has a flood story, which means that they either come from a shared tradition or a shared event. Hugh's interpretation is the only one backed by any evidence. It is more likely the only time on earth the entire globe was covered with water was in the Archean Eon around 2 to 4 billion years ago.
So the widely accepted theory of evolution and common ancestry is the largest conspiracy/mass delusion in the history of mankind? Please help me with this. I genuinely want to know if genesis is allegory or literal. This is a huge point of contention for so many of us. Am I to believe that all the scientists in all the universities in all the world are simply stupid ???? A literal interpretation of genesis one is smug or all the scientists are delusional. Which is it?????????
MANY Christians view the ancient stories of Genesis as parables rather than actual history. This makes sense, as the salient purpose of the Bible is always theological rather than scientific or historical.
@@mysotiras21 2 Peter 2:1 “But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.” That “many” (who call themselves Christian or not) believe a thing has never been a justification for error or an argument for truth.
@@charlottepatterson2864 Yup, if they don't agree with YOUR fundamentalist and literal interpretation of the text they must be false prophets or heretics. I like how you point out a bandwagon fallacy by using a no true Scotsman fallacy. If they don't believe the same thing your literalist interpretation says, they must not be true Christians. I don't think you worship God, I think you worship your interpretation of God; there is a difference.
This is amazing, a lot of information, a lot of knowledge and experience, i love listening peoples find their way to the truth in Jesus Christ cause there is no other truth like him....

What a wonderful testimony. Great example of Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
22:30 Mark "Athiests will come to a point that they will say there are multiverses to avoid God...." I propose they will run to "ignore the science go off of what FEELS right, and live your truth" just like we are seeing today.
It funny how all the scientific explanations of where life comes from " primordial ooze" or something like that. That is so weak regarding this "proof" that people WANT to believe because THEY want to be in charge of the lives instead of yielding to God.
@@DM-dk7js "science" doesn't show one way or the other if God exists. You are elevating the role of science to that of the religious by that comment. There is not 1 individual set of scientific facts or data that point to God, however any intellectually honest atheist (such as myself) is going to admit that cumulative evidence is strong. The argument would be that throughout physical reality (formation of atoms, placement of cosmological positions, conditions for life, etc) there are just so many conveniences it is hard to see them as random. Maybe the cumulative case not enough to convince you, for example one could make an argument that things only appear to have direction because we are looking at them from our current perspective and looking backwards. But even if you are not convinced the cumulation of evidence should certainly enough to give you pause on any supposed conclusions. And certainly enough for you to take the argument seriously and not arrogantly dismiss it. That arrogance is a sign of dogmatic commitment to science, which again elevates "science" to be just a modern religion.

Yes, you can help it. If I can be brought back to the faith after 15 years of hardcore atheism, surely an agnostic is not that difficult. What is keeping you from believing?
@@RealMJSr I don’t know that’s the thing I wanna believe n it make sense but it’s like how tho how can someone just have powers n be eternal if I knew god was real and he afterlife was real my life would be so mich better life is short
@AgentSmoovee Please just dont believe what everyone believes. Lets find out what Truth is for ourselves. Dont say you are an agnostic .such things is not real . When you Identify yourself as someone then you start to believe it which only brings confusion. Be honest with yourself and acknowledge that you do not know. Everyone is just playing games with themselves .Very deep down they also dont know but says that they do because the Bible said so or Jesus did this and that. Maybe what is in the Bible is true but believing it is not Truth. Because belief is Memory.Memory is something dead .It doesnt exist .Truth can never be Belief,Memory,Knowledge or a Thought because it is alive
We all have a father, and it's possible for him to not be physically around to help you when you're in need. It's not difficult to believe in the father while he's not in your life, but to not believe in him would seem like extra, illogical work for your mind to force into consideration. Take the easy path of what's reasonable and it may ease the stress you're causing yourself by doing mental gymnastics.

Thank you! I love PR!@@chemigue
this interview with Dr. Hugh Ross was one of a kind - such a brilliant mind, able to express things in lay terms in humility and simplicity
This idea of leaving Atheism shows a total misconception of what Atheism is, it is not an ideology or a belief, it is simply a lack of belief so it is incorrect to say one has left it. I don't belief in the tooth fairy but it does not mean I am part of an ideological group and I somehow can leave such a group, it is simply a lack of belief.
You channel consistently exposes itself as totally misunderstanding about Atheism, because it is not a ideological group that somehow follows common values you cannot attribute it as been against religion or somehow a threat, Atheist values come from many subjective personal views and experiences from the scientific approach of lack of verifiable evidence to simply having no interest in the subject matter and not entertaining such.
How about trying to argue your ideology by proving God exists ? You cannot, no one has ever done so and the best we often see is using the bible to prove the bible which is a logical fallacy, the desperation of the church to try push its message has simply come down to attacking others to make Christianity look like the logical obvious choice, it is called misdirection simply because you have no real method anymore of to convince ppl to belief a God exists.
Not sure if youll see this, but i wanted to tell you that i was an atheist for the first 30 years of my life. Raised in an athiest / agnostic home. In the past couple of years, jordan Peterson and your videos have played a massive role in me taking a second look at Christianity. I am not quite there yet, but interviews like this are extremely compelling.
Thank you so much for the content, it is has been absolutely mind blowing to say the least. Thank you and happy easter to you and your family.
Oh that’s wonderful to hear! I hope God ministers to your heart and your able to get there 🕊️❤️
Go all the way.
Go have an in depth look into the science of Cell structures.
Start with Kinesin Motor Proteins and their job within the cell and I guarantee you will start to question everything you have been taught up until now.
Basically the deeper science digs for the answers the closer they get to admitting that this is all by brilliant design.
God Bless 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
@@brownwarrior6867 oh I've been down that rabbit hole haha, but thank you very much for the recommendation! Happy Easter to you and your family.
I'm in the same ballpark as you. I was an atheist/agnostic from 18 to 35. Jordan Peterson introduced me to another way to view religion, and about a month ago I found Christ! And in finding Christ, I found also the Holy Spirit, which has brought me a joy I didn't know existed. After reading your post, I sent out a prayer for you, someone I don't know, with tears in my eyes, that you find Christ and God, and in doing so the Holy Spirit. Good luck on your faith journey, brother!
As the Bible states ... Seek and ye shall find. In three months I'll be 80. I had to reach the age of 79 starting at a very early age of studying and inquiry to get to the point that it finally hit me like a ton of bricks and I had absolutely no doubt that God and Jesus the Messiah are true. Thank and praise be to God. I see the world heading in a terrible direction but I, for the first time have absolutely no fear.
Praise God
Amen 🙏🙏🙏
Amen ! Welcome to the truth 🙏🏻
Praise our Loving Savior & God of Love ❤️
When I understood God standing outside of time saw all that would transpire & knew before he created us that to reconcile us back to Him, Jesus would die as He did. And that He still created us! Revelation 13:8
What wondrous Love is this? Oh my soul!
So there are apparently multiple gods running around then as my Hindu neighbor and friend alleges he was visited by Brahma, Krishna and Vishnu and Krishna picked up his bhagivad gita and moved it from one end of the room, to the other.
This is a man who had questions and did his research. If only people would do the same, they would also find the truth.
i agree with him to a certain extent except the jesus part. jesus was a roman invention. The only God is the one from the old testament.
Research my ass. As a real scientist listening to his nonsense it's laughable.
Most do, and realise the Genesis account is absurd nonsense.
@@mirandahotspring4019 here, here!
This is amazing. I'm a recently converted and baptized follower of Christ (recent as in just a few months) and some of my biggest hangups have been being able to connect science to the book of Genesis, not just creation, but the events thereafter. These videos offer great insight for all the toughest questions for the most questioning believers, such as myself. I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that Christ is our savior, have already experienced the Holy Spirit and, as he said at the end, feel myself less inclined to sin. I don't drink anymore, I no longer pursue lustful temptations, I don't swear as much (still drop a few, but getting better), not depressed, and learned to manage my anger. Your videos have been very helpful in solidifying my faith, especially the discussions with Frank Turek.
You have a scientific background? Maybe you can help me with some scientific problems from just the first 2 pages:
The Genesis 1 creation account conflicts with the order of events that are known to science. In Genesis, the earth is created before light and stars, birds and whales before reptiles and insects, and flowering plants before any animals. The order of events known from science is just the opposite. 1:1-2:3
God creates light and separates light from darkness, and day from night, on the first day. Yet he didn't make the light producing objects (the sun and the stars) until the fourth day (1:14-19). And how could there be "the evening and the morning" on the first day if there was no sun to mark them? 1:3-5
God spends one-sixth of his entire creative effort (the second day) working on a solid firmament. This strange structure, which God calls heaven, is intended to separate the higher waters from the lower waters. 1:6-8
Plants are made on the third day before there was a sun to drive their photosynthetic processes (1:14-19). 1:11
God lets "the earth bring forth" the plants, rather than creating them directly. Maybe Genesis is not so anti-evolution after all. 1:11
In an apparent endorsement of astrology, God places the sun, moon, and stars in the firmament so that they can be used "for signs". This, of course, is exactly what astrologers do: read "the signs" in the Zodiac in an effort to predict what will happen on Earth. 1:14
God makes two lights: "the greater light [the sun] to rule the day, and the lesser light [the moon] to rule the night." But the moon is not a light, but only reflects light from the sun. And why, if God made the moon to "rule the night", does it spend half of its time moving through the daytime sky? 1:16
"He made the stars also." God spends a day making light (before making the stars) and separating light from darkness; then, at the end of a hard day's work, and almost as an afterthought, he makes the trillions of stars. 1:16

I don't understand how all people that know the universe like this man aren't Christians. They see God's work all close and personal. There's so much proof there.
Believing in Evolution is a waste of time.
No, the vast majority of astronomers just see nature at work. One cognitively dissonant autistic astronomer changes nothing!
Yassss!
People that know the universe understand that almost nothing about it is either close or personal.
Its because they are what they claim us to be... "Delusional" and they are to us what we claim they are "Loved"
This man is extremely succinct in what he has to say, and his thoughts flow seamlessly from one to the next as he delivers an answer or shares his testimony. There’s no dead time, no wasted breathes, none of that. I pray that my atheist astrophysics loving friends will listen to this when I share it.
yes, he explains the cosmos well, but then concludes it had to be made by a guy who wants us to sacrifice our children to him. Hugh Ross is proof that we are evolved from superstitious apes.

@@ZacharyBetz That doesn't make him right about anything.
YEC guy here… 👏👏 Hugh Ross has a great testimony and is well spoken. I agree with all but billions of years. I love his faith in Jesus.
findings in astronomy seem to contradict a YE
The flow and articulation of every word coming out of Dr Ross's mouth is considered and very direct, simple and clear. I've never heard a speaker like this before and I'm many, many decades old.
An absolute blessing. Great interview. /salute to you for letting the man speak as so many questions must have been churning through your mind.
From my understanding, this is somewhat common. If we're honest with ourselves... there is plenty of evidence. We just do not like to admit we are sinners in need of a savior. So people come up with ANYTHING else that they can reach for... it's pathetic and sad, but it's what we seem to do. Jesus is real, knock, and He WILL answer. God bless.
Spot on 👍👊💪
I think everyone needs to read this
We want to sin without guilt and consequences, so we gaslight ourselves God don’t exist
My Hindu neighbor and friend alleges he was visited by Brahma, Krishna and Vishnu and Krishna picked up his bhagivad gita and moved it from one end of the room to the other. I don't believe him, but that's better than the typical "I felt the holy spirit" that Jesus followers typically like to use as proof
Agreed. People are too prideful to admit there is a higher power. God rejects the proud and gives grace to the humble.
Hugh often speaks at our church in Vancouver. Great person to bring on your channel!
I would really like to hear Hugh speaking at your church - which church is it?
Thankyou for sharing this interview with Hugh.

Once again, I am reminded of that quote by Sir Francis Bacon:
"A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion."
So many scientists and other well-educated persons end up leaving atheism for theism. And so many of those theists eventually come to Christ. Hallelujah!

- Jesus was crucified on a ***Wednesday*** as the prophecy in the Old Covenant/Testament Book of Daniel foretold which happened. Jesus rose on Saturday before the evening which marks the next day on Israelite calendar [after 6pm is considered the next day].
- It's not Easter which is a pagan holiday, it's actually Passover, the Apostles would have ***never*** celebrated a pagan holiday. Catholicism has made the much of the world believe Easter/ISHTAR is a New Covenant/Testament holiday. It may be argued with strong support, that Scripturally the Catholic Church is the home of the Antichrist system, and false Israel _[Juuz]_ are in control of the Roman Catholic Church, since God/Jesus foretold the final kingdom/empire of mankind _[the kingdom/empire of the Antichrist]_ that will rule before He returns is described in one way as **A woman who rides the best** - the woman represents spiritual haroltry _[what most Israelites did in the Old Covenant/Testament, they would fall into worship of the false 'gods' of pagan nations thus cheating on God/Jesus many times],_ the arguable one world religiion will be the religion of the Antichrist _[ecumenalism]_ which most of the world will embrace _[2Timothy3:1-9 and many other proof text verses],_ and the beast is the ruthless final kingdom / empire that will arise like how Rome was a ruthless kingdom - thus, the Roman Pontiff wears the yarmulke and i once saw a video where the "Rabbi" admits they took over the Roman Catholic Church circa 1000 A.D., so the Roman Pontiff is apparently always a Ju. You must NOT call him "Pope" _[hence why i refer to him as the Roman Pontiff]_ which means "Spiritual Father" which is blasphemous abomination since Jesus taught there is only one Father, HIM in Heaven, and to call no man "Rabbi" _[Master]_ for there is only one that is Jesus the Christ/the _[only]_ God.

I love your podcast. I've been a science guy forever. abandoned the Catholic Church at 12 yrs old. I became an evolutionary Atheist until God knocked me on the head over and over again! Ha! At 30yrs old i was incarcerated for a dumb alcohol thing,i picked up a Bible from the shelf, read it, and read it, And i was Blown away by the consistency,and the spirit of the message, insanely seeming like it's only one author. Well, i found out that it is written by God. The Spiraling of Galaxies,the behavior of Hurricanes, the way the drain goes down the sink.
Not sure how or why you would have ever been an evolutionist when even Darwin debunked his own theory on it. It is a self defeating worldview once in debate. Same with naturalism.
This short video is a GEM. I hope this guy lives another 100 years cuz his knowledge alone can help tons of people. Believers and non believers alike.
He has lead thousands to faith in Christ. His testimonies of the events and circumstances in how God has used him to bring someone to eternal life is awesome.
Such a sick video, thank you both.
I was worried about losing my faith when I started to study biology and chemistry at college...however, the deeper I got in science, the stronger my faith was, when I saw how amazing and fascinating life is.

It's interesting to compare this video with Brandon's earlier presentation "Atheist MIT Professor Converts to Christianity After Discovering THIS", about Rosalind Picard. Both Rosalind and Hugh were raised in non-Christian households, started exploring big existential questions in their mid-teens, went through a "comparative religion" phase, then accepted Christianity during their undergraduate years.
The authentic austere Scriptural Jesus the Christ taught "The Way" _[mentioned at least several times in the New Testament]_ not "Christianity" _[hence why you do not see the word "Christianity" in the Scriptures]._ It's Catholicism who has so incomprehensibly, ineffably, unfathomably and successfully deceived most the world for circa 1700+ years to believe that supposedly the authentic austere Scriptural Jesus the Christ taught "Christianity" which is indisputably Roman poly-theist paganism religion of the Roman Empire mixed with lukewarm/Revelation 3:15-16 false teachings _[truth mixed with untruth]_ in the same time frame and that supposedly a true born again remnant believer _[John 3:1-21 qualified adopted child of the the true Scriptural Jesus]_ are supposed to call themselves "Christian." I strongly encourage you to look up this article on the net at the ecclesia site.

2. Second, just because something is improbable does not rule out its existence. For example, all honest operational scientists, admit that mankind's very existence is inordinately improbable, especially mathematically impossible. Those same honest operational scientific scholars acknowledge that it is against all mathematical odds that all of the universe's cosmic constants and biological mechanisms necessary for life would come to be.

Another mind-blowing story from a genius who took a knee at the foot of his throne! God Bless you.
His infinite multiverse explanation is exactly right. This kind of philosophy has been debated for centuries and it was debunked by Thomas Aquinas very thoroughly, who was a brilliant rationalist. The gist is, The study of cause and effect will render that everything has a cause. Every single idea about what the universe is, is necessarily finite and therefore it had to have been caused. So therefore there must be an uncaused cause, a necessary being. Not a thing, nor an energy, but existence itself. This is what we call 'God'.
And because we know that things which are finite, even fields and forces, have no creative power, then this being must be a 'person'. This being cannot be lesser than anything or any finite idea, but always greater than every idea and every thing, even time and space no matter how large and mathematically infinite we try to make it.
'and this is the greatest knowledge of God we can have in this life, that we know him to be greater than every thought we were ever able to think of him.'
Your third sentence was a claim.
Two sentences later, you contradicted it.
Congratulations, you might win an award in mental gymnastics.
@@Byorinexplain
@@Nahash5150 “Everything has a cause.”
You literally typed that out as a fact. Then two sentences later, you not only contradicted your claim but you also made a new convenient un-caused cause that is also conveniently a being. Even if it exists, which you’d or someone would have to prove first, why does it have to be a being? And if it exists, then it needs a cause and on and on.
All of which is to say that you’re engaging in what’s called special pleading, which is basically a “rules for thee, but not for me” double standard.
@@bearde_mut9731 don’t accuse me of assuming, when that is exactly what you are doing with your god.
Not only are you assuming that thing exists, but you’re also assuming it is eternal. How do you know either of those are true, and better yet can you demonstrate it? It looks and sounds like you are trying to talk your god into existence. And if you are going to make an exception fr this god not needing a cause, (AKA special pleading), then why can’t the universe do the same by not having a cause? Maybe the universe is eternal, and it just collapses and expands over and over.
Regardless, I do NOT assume to know the origin of reality and this universe, and I’m Ok with admitting that. You should try that out, but you’ll need some humility first.
Edit: almost forgot, as far as we know, there was never no matter. Evidence shows it was all condensed into a singularity, which eventually “exploded” and interacted to develop what we now call our universe. If you claim your god existed somehow outside of time, space and matter then you are effectively saying it “existed” at no time, in no place and with no parts at all. That’s a something came from nothing argument.
@@bearde_mut9731 the only feelings I have on this matter are amusement and slight frustration with your special pleading nonsense.
I do not care whether or not the Big Bang or any other scientific proposal is wrong because I’m not emotionally attached to it, so i just go where the truth is. Can you say the same about your god beliefs?
One thing I will emphasize is that you are clearly not understanding the basic premise of the Big Bang. Matter was not created by the Big Bang. The matter was already there, so stop misrepresenting the theory. Now why it was there, I do not know and will (edit: not claim) to know. You however are claiming there is some kind of entity that existed before all this and presumably made itself and the universe out of nothing. How you know that is a mystery that you have yet to answer, which is why I’m amused and frustrated.
Regardless, have a nice day.
Why are these guys always so humble sounding and likable? Makes it difficulty to hate on them, damnit
Around 1998 Hugh Ross came to speak at my college. As a Christian is was eye opening to hear how much science actually pointed to God. This was one of the pivotal events in my young adult life that helped me cling to my Christianity when lots of worldly things including my own actions were trying to drag me away. God Bless this brother in Christ.

He did, and it was the most amazing experience I ever had.
I wish to someday be in the Presence and Glory of our Father God, because if what I felt is a small small portion of the Good He Is, then I want to know the rest.
Father Have Mercy on us sinners, every new day is a chance to seek Him out.
Don’t run out of time!
We do not know when we will die and that’s when your time is up to repent. No more chances after that.
I was baptized young and wasn’t familiar with God, I embraced darkness and betrayed God but he still pulled me out, without me asking for help. I was so used to the darkness that I didn’t think I needed help.
It was when I was in the lights that I realized how deep I have fallen, and how protected I was. I’m extremely grateful. I’m so blessed that I think it’s unfair for others. My grandad was a priest, I guess that’s why.
Love this stuff, always awesome to see how science points to God and his glory.
It really does once you decide to attribute it all to the particular god or theism of your choice! Glory to the Greek Pantheon for creating such an amazing reality!
Science does not point to God.
@@kos-mos1127 Something can't come from nothing my friend
@@reluctantdecontructionist Didn't God slay the empire that made those fake gods?
@@Li-Jester nope, people acting under orders they may have believed came from that God did. Huge distinction.
And the destruction of a society by another does not verify the religious truth of the conqueror does it? If that were true, then for a long while a pantheon of Gods is the true religion! Or any other religion that happened to occupy the conquerers society.
He has Risen
On the sabbath before 6pm.
He has truly risen!!
He is risen, indeed!
LOVE THIS GUY, HE IS SMART AND STRAIGHT FOWARD.. NO NONSENSE HERE . AND IM PROUD TO CALL HIM MY BROTHER IN CHRIST XO
This is an absolute stunner! Oh love the talks.
4:48 The holy book he says is the Enuma Elish. I couldn't understand him amd the CC doesn't spell is correctly. I thought leave a comment in case anyone else looks for it too.
Dr. Sarfati's book..."Refuting Compromise"...is about accepting scientific biased opinions to merge with the Bible.....
So please explain the science behind God telling Abraham to sacrifice his son.
Why don't you inquire about this yourself. If you are genuinely seeking truth God will reveal it to you. Pray about it. I'll give you a hint that sacrifice was never going to happen....God always knew that. Why/how bc He's God💚
@@harleysvacations625 However if God is all knowing he know Lucifer would turn on him and he knew Adam and Eve would fail his test and the serpent would tempt them, he wanted evil, he wanted humans to fail, that's what all knowing means he know it all would happen before he even created Lucifer or Adam and Eve and still did it knowing the consequences, even knowing it would lead to the flood and Christs' sacrifice and he still did it knowing all that. The very idea of a perfect being like God makes all kinds of paradoxes, for example, can God create something that even he can't lift? If he can, then he isn't all powerful because he can't lift it, if he can't then he isn't all powerful because he can't create it because all powerful means he can do anything, make anything, lift anything, there is no limit on all powerful, that very idea doesn't work when even doing thought experiments, just creates paradoxes.
Thank you so much for sharing
Really enjoyed this interview.
Krist je Kralj ❤
Somebody said that little science leads one away from God, but more of it leads one to HIM. That man didn't read a few articles and declared himself an atheist, like many do nowadays, neither did he rebuke all the abundant evidences in order to protect his beliefs; he was sincere and eagerly seeking for Truth and he found it. A beautiful testimony! 😢 Beautiful indeed!
That man i think you are referring to is Louis Pasteur the founder of microbiology and immunobiology;
*"Little science takes you away from God, but more of it takes you to Him."*
@@RemnantDiscipleLazzaro-Rev1217 Yes, Pasteur! Thank you!!! But by "that man" I meant the one being interviewed haha
this is awesome, keep it up
You have asked very good questions
Ahhh,"The Multiverse Of The Gaps Theory"!!! 😉🙃😇❤❤❤😄😄😄
Spot on! The newest scientism trope! 😂
That’s not actually a recognized fallacy.
@@bearde_mut9731 I’m saying multiverse of the gaps isn’t a fallacy. It’s called an argument from ignorance fallacy.
@@bearde_mut9731it’s a play on words more than it is a fallacy. This channel’s strategy is to tear down conventional logic and replace it with caricatures.
Just call it an argument from ignorance fallacy, if that’s even what’s been committed. Theists make that argument primarily. But that’s the point of the caricature. To pretend theism and atheism are logically equal when they’re not.
@@bearde_mut9731 which is absurd and cannot be demonstrated atheism is flat out illogical.
What a winner!
Hugh Ross is openly defiant of the Noah’s flood account, maintaining it was only a regional phenomenon. Genesis 7:19 plainly states,
“And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.” Because he lacks understanding of this simple statement, I do not consider him to be a reliable teacher. 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 4 “(for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” It seems to me that he places his own reasoning above the only factual reporting on the subject we have, the Word of God.
There is quite literally no evidence that there was a global flood at any time since modern humans have existed. But there is an incredible amount of evidence of flooding between the Tigress and Euphrates rivers. This would have been the entire known world at the time of the flood story. Every Mesopotamian culture has a flood story, which means that they either come from a shared tradition or a shared event. Hugh's interpretation is the only one backed by any evidence.
It is more likely the only time on earth the entire globe was covered with water was in the Archean Eon around 2 to 4 billion years ago.
So the widely accepted theory of evolution and common ancestry is the largest conspiracy/mass delusion in the history of mankind? Please help me with this. I genuinely want to know if genesis is allegory or literal. This is a huge point of contention for so many of us. Am I to believe that all the scientists in all the universities in all the world are simply stupid ???? A literal interpretation of genesis one is smug or all the scientists are delusional. Which is it?????????
MANY Christians view the ancient stories of Genesis as parables rather than actual history. This makes sense, as the salient purpose of the Bible is always theological rather than scientific or historical.
@@mysotiras21 2 Peter 2:1
“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.” That “many” (who call themselves Christian or not) believe a thing has never been a justification for error or an argument for truth.
@@charlottepatterson2864 Yup, if they don't agree with YOUR fundamentalist and literal interpretation of the text they must be false prophets or heretics.
I like how you point out a bandwagon fallacy by using a no true Scotsman fallacy. If they don't believe the same thing your literalist interpretation says, they must not be true Christians.
I don't think you worship God, I think you worship your interpretation of God; there is a difference.
This is amazing, a lot of information, a lot of knowledge and experience, i love listening peoples find their way to the truth in Jesus Christ cause there is no other truth like him....
Man, this guy speaks poetically.
Beautiful speech.
I have way more questions after watching this video than before I started.
That’s part of his strategy, is to get you thinking . Questions that aren’t answered don’t go away.
Seed has been planted. God will come thru if u let em
@@bearde_mut9731 Dr ross has said one of his goals is to get people to think and engage ,
Excellent interview. Thank God for you brothers.
God bless him, And God bless anyone who reads this and watches the awsome Vid. "Jesus knows whats best for you" beyond your own understanding... whatever storm you are in at the moment, Let it be, you stay faithful and let Gods Holy spirit Lead! 🙏🏽
Thank you! Brilliantly spoken
What a wonderful testimony. Great example of Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
22:30 Mark
"Athiests will come to a point that they will say there are multiverses to avoid God...."
I propose they will run to "ignore the science go off of what FEELS right, and live your truth" just like we are seeing today.
What science shows god exists? Oh right absolutely nothing.
It funny how all the scientific explanations of where life comes from " primordial ooze" or something like that. That is so weak regarding this "proof" that people WANT to believe because THEY want to be in charge of the lives instead of yielding to God.
@@DM-dk7js "science" doesn't show one way or the other if God exists. You are elevating the role of science to that of the religious by that comment. There is not 1 individual set of scientific facts or data that point to God, however any intellectually honest atheist (such as myself) is going to admit that cumulative evidence is strong. The argument would be that throughout physical reality (formation of atoms, placement of cosmological positions, conditions for life, etc) there are just so many conveniences it is hard to see them as random. Maybe the cumulative case not enough to convince you, for example one could make an argument that things only appear to have direction because we are looking at them from our current perspective and looking backwards. But even if you are not convinced the cumulation of evidence should certainly enough to give you pause on any supposed conclusions. And certainly enough for you to take the argument seriously and not arrogantly dismiss it. That arrogance is a sign of dogmatic commitment to science, which again elevates "science" to be just a modern religion.
@@bearde_mut9731obverse? What?!
@@bearde_mut9731I dunno what you’re asking me.
I wonder if I'm the first one here
It seems so
I don’t know. Where are you?
The first one anywhere is always God.

I saw a few of your videos but after this one, I had to subscribe.
I really enjoy these type of videos..
Thank You for posting..
Only God can lead you to God then you see God in everything 💙💫🙏
So I have to believe in God before I can accept God. That is a circular argument.
Think about how, until the telescope and microscope, seeking individuals knew there was something beyond the visible planets and stars and a discernable cause of the illnesses that plague humans. They believed and continued seeking for the answers.
@@kos-mos1127 Ahhhh there you are again CHAOS... the Psalm 14/Romans 1:18-32 Hall of Fame member, once again showing you clearly are quite beguiled by the first sinner, that ole pioneer in rebellion against God/Jesus who teaches man to do the same by seduction of the carnal / unsaved mind, to easily believe _[due to wilfully walking in spiritual darkness with vanity as your staff]_ that the very foundation of your world-view is built on solid rock and thus rebellion is righteous against God/Jesus, that you supposedly so spectacularly quite intelligent/wise to think clearly due to supposed extensive experiential specialised knowledge and erudition in such things, that your position is supposedly authoritatively credible when your reply reveals rather to be quite the profound colossal delusional one as expected. Your YT account is full of indisputable evidence of this - like any gamer's is - they are perma-juveniles never wanting to truly spiritually grow up - they spend so much time and energy wasting the short time they have earth to play video games _[incontrovertibly selfish/self-worship - me me me me]_ when they could be doing something so much more productive serving others in brotherly love......when i was a child, i played many video games, but when i grew up finally, i put those behind me and became a man as Jesus commands...and to waste so much time to play video games when you really get nothing truly important in return that truly helps mankind, what is the point of squandering all that short time we have on earth to only gain bragging rights that you are so good at a video game when in the big picture it's so childish and such a waste of the life God/Jesus gifted us with?
Your replies repeatedly demonstrate how corrupted, disordered, fractured, fatally flawed your way of thinking is, pure unadulterated unrestrained totally unsound cognitive and intellection - just nothing but noise, no substance, who hide behind ghost channels like the ne'er do wells they are figuratively hiding in the bushes in the pitch black of night at 3am throwing rocks at those at least attempting to walk in the light like the anonymous absolute cravenists they are in those bushes who expectedly will not put themselves under the harsh and severe scrutiny they put others under because they do not truly care for accountability / owning up to the severe castigations and contumely they accuse their opponents with hence why have phantom channels.
Time is running out young one.... Get on the John 3:1-21 Ark by the roads of Mark 1:15, 16:16, Luke 13:1-5, Matthew 18:1-3, John 1:12, Acts 2:38, Romans 6:1-23, 10:9, Galatians 1:7-9, 1Corinthians 3:18-23 and parallel verses before it is too late - this day, because the door is closing and most will not escape the coming inescapable global flood of fire storm but a remnant and you/the unsaved clearly for now are exactly who the true Jesus referred to in Matthew 7:21-23 and parallel verses if you are not truly part of the John 3:1-21 qualified remnant. Selah.

Science points to God, science is a study and observation. It doesn't explain away a God.
@@GodSoLoved.Yeshuano it really doesn’t. Youre more than welcome to demonstrate that assertion for us tho…
I’m still agnostic I can’t help it
Yes, you can help it. If I can be brought back to the faith after 15 years of hardcore atheism, surely an agnostic is not that difficult. What is keeping you from believing?
@@RealMJSr I don’t know that’s the thing I wanna believe n it make sense but it’s like how tho how can someone just have powers n be eternal if I knew god was real and he afterlife was real my life would be so mich better life is short
@@Cdr1ck Is it a logical/knowledge barrier or emotional barrier to you believing?
@AgentSmoovee Please just dont believe what everyone believes. Lets find out what Truth is for ourselves.
Dont say you are an agnostic .such things is not real .
When you Identify yourself as someone then you start to believe it which only brings confusion.
Be honest with yourself and acknowledge that you do not know.
Everyone is just playing games with themselves .Very deep down they also dont know but says that they do because the Bible said so or Jesus did this and that.
Maybe what is in the Bible is true but believing it is not Truth.
Because belief is Memory.Memory is something dead .It doesnt exist .Truth can never be Belief,Memory,Knowledge or a Thought because it is alive
We all have a father, and it's possible for him to not be physically around to help you when you're in need. It's not difficult to believe in the father while he's not in your life, but to not believe in him would seem like extra, illogical work for your mind to force into consideration. Take the easy path of what's reasonable and it may ease the stress you're causing yourself by doing mental gymnastics.
