- Cliffe Knechtle has a good dialogue with students at Texas State University. Recorded in October 2014.
The "Give Me An Answer" ministry began as an outgrowth of the dialogues Cliffe Knechtle has had with students on various university campuses throughout the United States. These universities include the University of Maine, Harvard, MIT, University of Florida, University of Texas, University of Wisconsin, University of Minnesota, University of California Los Angeles, University of California San Diego, Berkeley, Stanford, University of Hawaii and the University of Washington. Cliffe spoke on these campuses in front of the Student Union or Library at noon for five to ten minutes. At the close of his initial remarks, he'd open up the time for questions and answers, which usually turned into a two to four hour dialogue with students. His crowd size ranged from 25 - 500 students at a time, and between classes, new students would join the discussion. This is an extremely effective way to reach a large number of university students with the Gospel of Christ.
One of those students said the world is becoming less violent he's clearly not living in reality
@Zachary D. the 20th century has caused more deaths than the previous 19 centuries put together. As the stock pile of weapons grew death grew. Evil and sin is a serious disease we all have within us. Jesus is the the doctor with the cure. If we are talking about more basic sins like theft and things like that the only reason I believe those are lower if the stats show that it is because of cameras everywhere. It makes people stop and think before committing more crimes.
Cliffe used patience and showed respect that goes a long way in these conversations. Great use of wisdom Cliffe!
"Are you a Vegetarian?"
"No." LOL!
Welcome back Cliffe always love your vids.
Greetings, this is Vence, at 7007 w Montgomery, do you know the ETA
But I wanted a real answer
@@vencetrevino1842 this is not texting, you are on RUclips
@@jaquicx9500 that was a real answer, he should be consistent and not allow his human bias to allow special treatment only for apes, what about every other living creature he eats on the daily? What about them being alive, I'm sure they enjoy life vs being slaughtered.
Cliffs ability to see past the ugly motives of these supposed "truth seekers" is amazing.
Wow another argument that fizzled. Once he pulled out his phone it was over. good job Cliffe!
People hate that F word
Cliffe, very patient and wise!
"humans become less violent" LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really learn a lot from these videos~ thanks again!
Yes! I waited a whole month for another video. Thank you brother Cliffe, God bless you and your ministry :)
Curious to know if you have any FAQ either email or social media? I do have a ton of questions but keeping it real.
P.S I forgot to comment, I do really enjoy non-believers such as atheists/agnostic who genuinely ask questions of our Christian faith especially when GOD had to wipe out sodom and gomorrah. These people I truly respect despite our differences in worldviews.
I believe sodom and gomorrah was definitely a hybrid clan mixed with demons/humans who were very wicked in the eyes of the Lord, the adversary (satan) was trying to destroy the bloodline of King David to Jesus Christ.
Bravo Cliffe, I have added you among our top Christian apologist of the century. I am so blessed to witness this in my 30s. I continue to thank our Lord and Savior for our Christian men of Faith who are delivery the living Jesus Christ to this dying world.
Kind regards.
Did Cliff answer you, may I help?
It's comical how college students think they are modern day Plato's/Newton/Socrate's and reach their rebellious heights upon leaving home for college, only to have the world beat them down with reality a few years later(if they graduate). Shows the failure of parenting across this country. This angry little kid at 10:35 is mad at his parents

Biblical principles, the teaching and living of these principles, in the home, is missing.
Deuteronomy 6:6-9 6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7 And
thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of
them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way,
and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
Deuteronomy 11:18-20 18 Therefore
shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind
them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between
your eyes. 19 And
ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest
in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up. 20 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
Grappling with truth. Fabulous. Ryan will be like Apostle Paul convincing other college students. We should continue to pray for these student that they have an undeniable spiritual encounter with the Lord.
Lol, the last guy, set himself up for that one.
Cliffe's face at 1:14 priceless
Love your videos, I really enjoy this ministry, keep it up Cliffe, May God continue to bless you
"I'm Not Sure What Ryan Sold to Me But I'm Buying It!" Lol.. I don't know why his speech made me feel that way!
Thank you for uploading another video!
I can't stand that guy at 14:30... because he waste so much time EVERY TIME Cliff is at that University.
He’s a saved believer now
Pastor Cliffe, Thank you for your Ministry, Devotion and Great Wisdom for your Preaching The Good News Of "LORD JESUS CHRIST". PHILIPPIANS 2:10-11 So That AT The Name OF JESUS Every Knee Should BOW, IN Heaven And ON Earth, And Under The Earth, And Every Tongue Confess That JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, TO The Glory of GOD The FATHER.
I wonder if the technology guy has gone back today to see what he said and then see 2 billion in destruction this last year and the growing hate in our country. The destruction of the moral fabric God introduced is causing more division and violence as time goes. Also technology is decreasing empathy in our society as time goes. We need person to person contact, and person to person relationships, and person to person love.
Love your and your teams work!
Thank you pastor Cliff ❤️🥰🥰
One of the best episode!!! Debate with last guy was amazing!!!
Wow! Watching this video from 6 years ago compared to one from 11 years ago, the college students have really changed. Going to look for a more recent one next time
This was a good one!
Thank you!
So much wisdom in that last segment of the video! I took many notes down! Love your presentation of the gospel! Praise the Lord Jesus and I pray that he will bless you evermore!
“Come on Ryan!!” 😂😂😂🎉
Send the homie Ryan into the middle east or North Korea
😂 crack up...
I'm still laughing. Lol.
love this! Thanks Cliffe
Student says less violent but lives in the bloodiest era.
Here's a big problem with the lower rate of murders as an indicator of increased human civility and progress: If medical technology was the same today as in 1960, the number of murder rate would be 5 times higher.
So murder rates being lower is due to medical progress, not due to increased civility and compassion -- and CERTAINLY not due to lack of effort on the part of the killers.
When I see Cliffe struggle I look for the music.
Acts 11:25-26 "Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul:
And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch."
Pastor Cliffe please how can I get your books
The lady’s little ‘wtf’ shrug at 6:58 lol

The HG wells name drop meant nothing.
@20:27, I will give you a trend that will never change, gravity sucks.
Ryans problem is he does not understand what faith is, pop atheism has twisted the word faith to mean believing in the impossible blindly not believing is something due to evidence.
Cliff should ask the students to rephrase their question. Why does the Lord let anyone of us live. No one is good.
When you sit but still need to use the walking stick...
And I thank you
These are supposed to be pursuers of higher learning and yet it's obvious that they cannot think critically and logically i.e their BLIND FAITH is enormous! Doesn't Ryan know that with one push of a button our whole earth can be destroyed? The arguments against Christ today have become so silly and I say silly because it seems to me to be appropriate for the child like level of the reasoning I am witnessing. It's scary actually.
Jesus was not a hippie
Tells you how he never actually read the gospels
I love Jesus and appreciate Cliff. However I respectfully disagree with his presentation of Monism. It’s way more deeper than that as he’s describing monism from physical level of dualism. But again does it really matter. It’s all good fun and wordplay i guess as long as we love Jesus with all of our heart and love others 9:44 . ❤ thank you 🙏
Amazing how much this kid bought into this illusion. Yes, he thinks his iphone is god but to look at the current world around and think it's getting less violent. Of course he buys into the gnostic nonsense that Man will transend and become gods and sounds like he believes as some do that we will do it through tech
This Bumper Music was much better
@3:49, this kid has a real problem with justice.
@5:30, Hinduism 3,000 BC. Wasn't that about the time of the flood?
The guy at the end was trying to clarify his point and cliffe the good Christian that he is shouted him down with gotcha.
He hurt your feelings because he raised he's voice.. maybe cry about it?
Jesus was a hippie you gotta be kidding me ???? Like what ? Professing to be wise they become fools.
WHY FORCE FAITH ON OTHERS STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who in this video was forced to take part?
it's sad, but funny. how could this be
@18:09, figures lie and liars figure.
15.30 - "Look at our phones...what are they?" Bahahaha get out of here atheist...I mean good try it was top effort and good spech from you I think???
I think Cliffe has a naive view of morality and pantheism and panentheism. Although it would be absurd to think that murder and abuse is wrong if you look the way Cliffe looks at in pantheism and panentheism however there are different ways in which moraity can be accounted for in these views.
a) By murdering, the part of the God that is murdering is not inconsistent with his God nature. Hence it is wrong.
b) By murdering a part of God, he is doing wrong, even though he himself be a part of God.
c) Morality is not judged wholly by victims and perperators but also actions.
Cliffe says I am convinced and there is no way for new knowledge to enter his brain. These students were giving cliffe a lesson on how to think, it's too bad he is stuck in his ways.
How so?
God is allowed to judge unrighteousness because He created the universe. God is in charge, not us. Jesus Christ is going to come back and judge us all. The length of the time of a religion doesn’t make it more valid than other religions because sin has been around since Adam and Eve.
No actual evidence of Adam and Eve existing, none of creation, a creator ,a first cause, a causator, a prime mover or the need for one, not a scintilla of evidence of any heaven or hell existing, not one iota of evidence of a life after death, not one sourced, verified and corroborated account record of any Jesus ever existing by any known to have existed persons by that same criteria, all religions are man created, as are the gods in them their gullible followers worship, in the history of mankind not one believer of gods has been successful in proving their claimed god exist, every arguement from Paley's to Pascal's, ID to ontological and every arguement put forward in between has been discreditted, yet still apologist use them, not to convert any one but to hold on to their shrinking gullible ,brainwashed followers
The World becoming less violent lol privileged
This kid is just so lost 🙄😤
What's wrong with this guy must have been hurt in the past blaming Jesus Christ
The world is becoming less violent??? Hello! Get out of your bubble dude and realize that things have gotten progressively worse!!!!
In Answer to the title of the video Q: Are men and women animals? Essentially yes, we are. It may seem as if we are separate from the rest of the animal kingdom, but there is a wealth of evidence to say that we are indeed animals, albeit highly evolved ones with an incredibly powerful brain which is probably the biggest thing which sets us apart from other animals, we have that ability to think and to reason far beyond what other animals are capable of.
+bonnie43uk no we are not we are human beings
+bonnie43uk It's interesting, that you claim that we are animals yet you also defined us as human beings. Not lion-beings, dog-beings, whale-beings. I would like to know this wealth of evidence you have.
jrc99us Hi jrc, always good to hear from you. Yes, indeed we are essentially animals, we share a common ancestor with apes and chimpanzee's, this is pretty much common knowledge in areas of science such as anatomy, biology, anthropology, zoology, just type in 'human being' or 'homo sapiens' into google and you will see more detailed information about this on hundreds of web pages that would take you more than a week to read. eg: I just typed in homo sapiens, and Google came up with well over 15 million pages.. how long would it take an average person to read all that?, we are probably talking years. So yes, i would call that a wealth of evidence. And of course, you don't have to accept any of it as credible proof, you can do your own research and publish your own papers for peer review if you so wish. DNA analysis also confirms our origins, all humans initially came from a certain district of Africa, from there, we spread all over the globe over hundreds of thousands of years. It's an amazing story.
***** It's a little more complicated than that Armando, type 'animal' into google and check out a few scientific websites. Wikipedia is a good starting point, they have an extensive page on animals origins, etymology and so on. It's all fascinating stuff my friend.
gunner kicks Yes, indeed we are human beings, but we are also homo sapiens and essentially animals.
I can't stand that guy at 14:30... because he waste so much time EVERY TIME Cliff is at that University.
It's only a waste if Cliffe doesn't get to give the gospel to these students. Objectives matter. In this case, I think he helps Cliffe more than hurts.
Second point. If he hears this over & over with every question answered, the odds of him or someone in the crowd accepting Christ is higher. This is also very good.
Third point. When he reaches the end, he ends up giving Cliffe exactly what the truth is about himself. Cliffe makes a very sound point that kid won't forget soon. What he does with that will determine his eternity. At least he has a chance.
We aren't here to win, just convert. I hope to see him in heaven. God Bless.
