I was raised by loving parents but they were not Christian. Back in the 90's, I was married with a new baby. I had not been exposed to the Truth. My TV was playing while I was busy cleaning. It happened to be a Billy Graham crusade. By the end of that program, I was on my knees crying and accepting Christ. My faith is stronger today and continues to grow. Humble yourself and call upon the Lord. He will meet you where you are.
May your find peace and always put hope in God, God is always the way even in bad times, just know your ways aren’t His so when things don’t align like you want it’s either you didn’t pray or ask for the direction in that or it’s not the best choice but as long as you pray and believe he will never lead you wrong and you can always get answers thru his book(Bible), word from a preacher or dream. May God give you vision and also give you direction to carry on. I would advise you watch David Oyedepo’s preaching. Living faith church and see how great God is, same way he’s spreading the word thru Cliff. God is Good
@@missouritravelersThese students have a presupposition that God doesn’t exist therefore you can’t trust the eyewitness testimony that said Jesus Christ is God and he resurrected from the dead. By using the same standard they use to disprove God , we have a presupposition that Julius Caesar didn’t exist and the eyewitness testimony that recorded what he did isn’t reliable. Now you will want to argue that Julius Caesar’s eyewitnesses are more reliable and my question will be why? The answer is you just want to believe in Julius Caesar and don’t want to believe God through Jesus Christ. It’s as simple as that a presupposition against God, not any rational high tone , scientific reason just you don’t want to believe.
pretty much and the guy was wrong he tried so hard to prove cliffe wrong yet wouldnt let cliffe speak its the ones that try pushing their beliefs that are upset about others "pushing" their beliefs ironically
Right , he said there is no absolute truth, I would have asked him” Is that statement absolutely true? That’s what’s known as a self-refuting statement. It’s like saying- I can’t speak a word of English, but spoke English to say that, That guy doesn’t know what he is talking about, he just wants to argue . .
that last guy just kept on talking and wouldn't let Cliffe respond. that's right kids, instead of bringing up one point at a time and letting the opponent respond just bring as many points to the table as possible so that they're not able to respond to any of them. as cliffe says: "thats intellectually dishonest"
I really respect how Cliff will just let them talk and fully formulate a thought. Even though at times it can turn into rambling and going off onto many different points, he doesn't cut them off.
I can’t believe that the majority of the students do not know anything about GOD. I feel compassion for them. Thank you Cliffe , that you use your knowledge of GOD, for the glory of JESUS CHRIST ❤😊
Frank Turek is fond of saying parents usually send their kids to collage having only telling them Christianity is true, and not having taught WHY it’s true! Any wonder why kids are deceived by atheist professors?
That's because many professors and universities are teaching atheism and communism. Communism has to destroy religion in order to exist that's why the Democrats and the left are against religion cause they want socialism/ communism
Corinthians 4:4 Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.
1st Corinthians 18-18 NIV) 18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
The patience you display while someone drones on making accusations and inferences as if you had answered, but not pausing for breath to allow it - is inspiring. These are so stressful to listen to! But, I have learned so much from your consistent explanations. My faith is strengthening and my ability to evangelize improved. It’s not preaching it’s reaching.
Have you seen church on a Sunday? Talk about Drones. It's a bunch of self-righteous followers of a False Roman Triad belief system worshipping a graven image!
Indeed, Cliffe struggled with that one. We are all like Thomas now, lacking direct one-on-one evidence. It would have been more powerful if he had acknowledged that and explained to the student how to deal with it.
God , Thank You for these wonderful men who praise and teach about You better than anyone I know so far. Bless these men and all who listens to them for Your truth’s sake. In Jesus name , Amen.
@@jasonmitchell7550 On the 13th October 1917 a crowd of an estimated 30,000 people in the town of Fatima in Portugal all testified they witnessed the sun zig zag around the sky, shoot coloured lights, move closer to the earth, and move away again. They all claimed to be eyewitnesses. People in neighbouring towns saw nothing unusual. That was only a hundred years ago. How accurate do you think 2000 year old claims of eyewitness accounts are? Try Googling "Miracle of Fatima" if you don't believe me!
@@mirandahotspring4019 Yes indeed, thats a great example, try looking directly at the Sun (not recommended), you will find the sun will burn it's image onto your retina for a minute or 2, and everywhere you look, the Sun will follow your gaze and seemingly dance around the sky, that is exactly what many observers noticed when you read the reports, people genuinely believed the Sun was moving erratically. There is good evidence for mass hysteria. ( also well worth a google).
@@mirandahotspring4019 ...it is tho. Not only is it used for Christianity but throughout other religions they speak of his existence (whether other religions belive in him or not, they alude to him), and secularly speaking they are just now trying to move away from "AD" and "BC". So, historically it happened.
@@MrJonykid The AD/BC dating system is not evidence it historically happened, it was devised in 525 by Dionysius Exiguus but was not widely used until the 9th century. The current trend to CE/BCE is more acceptable for secular use, especially in Muslim and Hindu countries. Islam acknowledges Jesus as a prophet before Mohammed. Many other religions don't mention him at all!
This brings me back twenty years to my early university days. I used to be proud of being a Buddhist rebelling against the smug members of the Christian establishment for being so vindictive in saying people deserve to be burned for something as insignificant as not believing in a person. My pastor made me see that Jesus opposed hypocritical spiritual laws of the Pharisees and that got me to turn 180 degrees and became a Christian the day I heard that. Thanks for your work Cliffe. I think as long as you are also willing to meet the youth halfway, and that means seeing things from their point of view. Here’s to many years of being a light to the nations, be blessed.
"They are darkened in their understanding,alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them,due to their hardness of heart." That's the reality of everyone outside of the reality of God's knowledge and what you're witnessing in these students and what their demonstrating in actuality.
I’ve only recently returned to Christ at 49. My biggest failure as a mother was not raising my children to know Christ. My youngest is 11 and we’ve been seeking churches together and he wants to go. My oldest went to church with his grandma. But my middle two sons are lost so I’m praying for God to intervene and save them. I hate that I made such a colossal mistake. 🙏✝️💔
@@GenXfrom75 it’s ok , there’s nothing you can do about the past, we’ve all made mistakes. But you’re doing good with your son in that you’re looking for churches with him . Keep doing that. Keep praying for your middle two sons and don’t stop. God has a way bringing people to him who are lost . I’m living proof of that. My father was a preacher and him and my mother never stopped praying for me- I was there Prodigal son- literally, but I eventually came to my senses ( as a lot of prodigal sons do) and came back home and came back to God . And I’ve never regretted it. Take care and God bless you and your sons and have a good day.
I use to think like these college students until I read the new testament of Matthew mark Luke and James and now, and after looking over the historic event I'm convinced Yeshua is who he claims he is and it will be wise for me to follow and try to lead people I love to him which is all of us.
@@mirandahotspring4019 The Epistle of James is indeed a legitimate part of the New Testament, separate from the Gospels. Assuming they meant John is presumptuous and shows a lack of understanding of the Bible. James 4:11-12 - "Do not speak evil against one another, brethren. He that speaks evil against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law......But who are you that you judge your neighbor?" 🙏✝️👑
@@Maximalias James is just a rant about believing and barely mentions Jesus. He should still be careful reading Harry Potter, if he believes the bullshit in the new testament he'll believe anything! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@mirandahotspring4019 While James may not mention Jesus as frequently as other books, it still offers valuable insights into living a faithful life. Pugnaciously calling it a rant overlooks its importance to many believers and non-believers alike. Given that James is purportedly the brother of Jesus, his writings are profoundly relevant. Growing up around Jesus, who claimed to be God in human form, makes his epistle extraordinarily important as it conveys both direct and indirect lessons from Jesus. Your approach seems designed to provoke and belittle from the start. For instance, saying “James is just a rant about believing and barely mentions Jesus” and suggesting that someone who believes in the New Testament would believe anything, like Harry Potter, are examples of flawed reasoning and logical fallacies, such as ad hominem attacks. These statements are not meant to engage in genuine debate but to frustrate and confuse. This is a common tactic among trolls who want to derail conversations and feel superior. Given that you have well over 100 comments on this channel that follow the same formula of troll behavior, it reflects poorly on how you choose to spend your time. Contemplating why you feel the need to provoke others could lead to more fulfilling and constructive interactions. 🙏✝👑
To anyone dealing with depression or feeling low, don’t give up on life, no matter what bad things happened in your past, don’t let them define you or control your destiny, you are all important and loved!, there is hope for all of us! Jesus loves you all ✝️, get to know God through Christ 📖
The last guy essentially said it's absolutely true there is no absolute truth - and was talking so fast and angrily he didn't even realize he contradicted himself. He was talking out of emotion (hence his overt anger) and not logical reasoning.
I love you guys and your videos! I don't know if you guys have ever heard or talked to Jeff Durbin. He is a pastor for Apologia Church in Arizona I think, but he also does a podcast and post sermons. I think y'all would have great discussions.
Jeff Durbin: Do you believe in election? Cliffe: I believe in election up until right about… now and then I believe I have a choice to make. I can choose to serve Christ and love others or I can do what Cliffe wants.
John 20:29 Jesus told him, “Is it because you have seen me that you have believed? How blessed are those who have never seen me and yet have believed!”
I saw a conversation the other day where the argument “we can’t prove historically that Jesus rose from the dead, because all the accounts are either in the Bible or are people who believe in Christ and the resurrection. They’re biased.” The response was “It makes perfect sense that the people who saw and confirmed the resurrection would believe in Christ. It would be quite difficult to provide proof of an event that you don’t believe happened. And if you saw it happen with your own eyes, you’d probably be pretty convinced of everything else Jesus had to say as well.”
The first man's argument is perfect and cliff then reveals the true christ when he says if you have a heart for Jesus he will reveal himself to you. He is everywhere if we look for him but he is nowhere if we look to not find him
Jesus is the narrow way, but the only true way. And people don't wan't go his way, because it seems uncomfortable. But Jesus is in the end of a day freedom, peace, life, security...and most of all God. Nobody speaks like Jesus. And without holy spirit you can't even belive in him. Iam a sinner but I will fight evil spirits till the end.❤❤❤
The young man in 35:00, when he has children he will see the world differently. He does not see that it does matter who people believe God is. God forbid anything bad happens to his kids, but he will see the importance of there being right and wrong. Because as parents we want our children to have good and happy life's, just like God wants for us.
Living for the search is ridiculous. Search implies there's an endpoint. That sounds like something he just made up to sound like he had something to live for to answer Cliff's question. They might as well say they just want to wander aimlessly. The danger with that is that they fall off a cliff. He's lucky that Cliff is willing to take what he says seriously.
The reason why religious arguments are so heated most of the time is because as a believer in Christ speaking to a non-believer you’re often pushing against the brick wall they’ve put up as a barrier between themselves and God. Jesus spoke about this in John 15:18-27 “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not done among them the works no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated me without reason.’ “When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father-the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father-he will testify about me. And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.
@@NarrowPath7 Depends on what you mean by love. I see TV commercials that promise you will love the new four ply super soft toilet paper. The scientific understanding is that it is based on circulating levels of dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin in the brain. It's an emotional feeling that's easily explained. Bonding is also an observable evolved trait in many mammals. Many animals pair bond for life. It's an evolutionary survival mechanism. If you want to call that love...
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Philippians 4:8
Usually it's because that person stops talking with cliffe and someone else starts a conversation. That lady is the brown crop top probably started talking immediately after. At least that's what I noticed
In terms of earthly possessions I don't have much and it used to bother me but since I accepted god he's all I need and more my life now had meaning and value thank you Jesus ❤ God bless you cliff you really helped to strengthen my faith in Jesus christ ❤
I think it's important to understand what the Bible is and how we got it. The "historical, empirical evidence" guys have an understanding that the Bible is "just a book". A lot of people don't understand the history of the Bible and therefore hold it to a significantly higher standard than anything else of history despite biblical evidence being objectively more accurate and consistent than many sources of secular antiquity.
The life of Thomas is the evidence that we now have. Thomas didn’t have the evidence we have, he hadn’t seen Jesus raised yet (when he made those claims) and so doubted, but we these years later have the evidence of a thomas who doubted but then believed to the point of death
One thing I noticed often during these videos is a lot of people will ask a question but than continue to talk and talk and talk. They usually don't want an answer. They just want to make a statement disguised as a question.
So one thing that would be helpful for Cliffe to address is the what I have heard is a main reason why people have a barrier to believing. It is not so much that they do respect historical evidence, but mostly because we don't have many historical resurrection accounts. We have plenty of historical accounts of people being crazy or lying or other "natural" events, but what Cliffe needs to address is the very rare if any accounts of other resurrections in addition to the claim in the bible of Jesus' historical resurrection. By the way I am a follower of Jesus and am not only pointing this out but would love some wisdom on this idea as well.
You make a good point, but as the skeptic points out, I don't think we can have sufficient evidence for this "resurrection" from 2k years ago. It's just not there. There were no video cameras, no computers, etc. to record things. And we really don't have any other evidence for this besides the gospels (written decades after the fact by non eyewitnesses). When you read other contemporary accounts (in particular by roman historians) nobody mentions anything about some sort of "resurrection".
14:12 hell absolutely IS eternal fire and that is exactly what the Bible and the Lord Jesus Christ teach. But, i believe you can interpret that the soul that goes there doesn't burn for eternity, but burns up into non existence, however long it takes for a soul to burn up
The scripture says burn for eternity PERIOD. SOUL too. I'm not sure why Cliffe says things like that. I like his preaching but but there's some other things that he says that's questionable.
@@user-cu3xn4xj3i he has many questionable doctrines that just don't coincide with what the Word says. I do like his philosophical approach with these college students, but Cliffe just doesn't believe what the scripture says. He thinks science contradicts the Bible and tries to fit billions of years in Genesis 1. That's just not what the Word says if you take it for what it says. As for eternal burning, the only scripture i can think of with anyone burning for eternity is Revelation where the false prophet and the beast are for eternity and then the dragon, Satan, is cast there with them after the millennial reign. But i don't know of any verse that says people will burn for eternity, they go there to perish in the eternal flame
Fact theres a few things I don’t agree with him especially that and one time he said some ppl that commit suicide won’t go to hell js many things I agree but some stuff I don’t
I think its because when the bible calls hell an eternal fire its more methorical because it also refers to hell as a dark place so how would you have eternal fire if its dark

That girl around 17:00 doesn't "say anything" when Cliff presses her on what she just said. I hope she studied the gospels and is now a sister in Christ.
Slaves obeying their masters in the New Testament is referring to willing, paid servants by the way. Cliff might have been able to answer if the guy would shut up for a second to actually let him answer, but he's not interested in truth, he just wants to rant forever and not let the other side talk, because that's what people do who are confident in their positions, they shut down all debate
According to this student, we would not have enough evidence to convict any criminal in a court of law. He needs 100% uncontroversial evidence for anyone charged with a crime.
"these things don't normally happen at all" is like saying the big bang doesn't normally happen at all. GOD is real. So was the big bang. GOD created the big bang in order to create everything.
Perhaps the question should be this. If it’s true that the resurrection did indeed happen, would it be sufficient to convince you to become a follower of Jesus Christ. Yes or no.
In my time I guess I’ve seen it all says the servant of all that’s me that’s Paul. But I do know that those whom God opposes, are those who will not accept His son the Lord Jesus Christ the Rose of Sharon. They will be kept at bay and very far away for God chooses not these ones to be with His son. They are ill fated to be destroyed for instead of lovers of truth they toyed with truth and hated it. Initially in hell shall they be yelling and cursing and blaming God, who can tell. But eventually their end will arrive when they’re no longer alive but it’ll be preceded by taking the blame and accepting the truth with heart braking shame. They will repent and be sorry for all their sins agreeing to need to be destroyed as though they never existed, for it was against God whom they madly resisted. It’s our duty to God to warn these ones and of course we shall, for they loved not God’s only begotten son, though shall they repent this side of hell. And as we’ve performed our heavenly theme of warning them over and over again, our slate is wiped clean, for their blood will not be found on our hands that the justice of God certainly demands.
Romans 10:9-10 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
Just saying, the gospels do infact refer to hell as the eternal fire. Matthew 25:41 “ “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.” Verse 46 then says “And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Now I’m not one to prompt fear mongering or condemn anyone, but we’ve gotta tell it as it is pertaining to God’s plan for humanity.
If these students put as much effort and thought into seeking Jesus as they do seeking to disprove Him… What’s certain is that their minds are being programmed. This isn’t the inquisitive thinking that considers all sides of things that is supposed to be encouraged in college.
I actually got mad for no good reason when that girl basically said i cant read a book that may possibly be the most important step iv ever taken in life because i was raised by parents that said im energy
So, What about Corie Ten-Boom family not resisting the Nazis? Should they have met force-with-force when assaulted by Nazis? Very curious for an answer.
I think you could get 2 different answers- 1) yes- protecting my family even to the point of death; and 2) being like shadrack, meshack, and abedengo to be willing to go to their deaths knowing God could save them, but even if He doesn’t, they wouldn’t bow. Look at the disciples and all His followers who went to their deaths without a fight.
This man is going to live a long life. Do you know why? Because God gives these type of people the most amount of time to go deeper and deeper into sin with his lies so he will not be able to escape the punishment of hellfire.
Am I the only one who hears someone say "I need more proof/evidence than that", and the only response I can fathom is "who do you think you are to think you deserve an omnibenevolent God pandering to you"?
What really blows my mind is how can THEY REFUSE TO EVEN READ THE BOOK but so offended by it? Then I ask the question why even argue it? They all shove it off as if “I would would never” BUT STILL FILL THE NEED STAND AROUND AND ARGUE IT AND LITERALLY WAIT!!!!! TO SEE IF SOMEONE ELSE CAN PROVE CLIFF WRONG AS IF THEY CANT STAND IT!!!! And the entire time watching im this i get the feeling as if there spirits are just HEATED IN ANGER TO THE POINT THEY CANT EVEN LEAVE!!! ITS NOT THE BIBLE THATS THE PROBLEM ITS CHRIST!! BECAUSE CHRIST CHANGED EVERYTHING!!! THIS IS LITERALLY THE SPIRIT OF THE ANTICHRIST! smh but in my opinion it’s simple, it’s in our human nature to be naive! TO PUT OURSELVES BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE OURSELVES ARE ALL WE KNOW! And that screams! I know! My lifestyle choices has a consequence and anything that SHINES THE LIGHT TO IT! Is a threat! “We fight-or-flight response, or stress response, is triggered by the release of hormones either prompting us to stay and fight” But yet to cliff, he’s FINE AND CONTENT BECAUSE HE HAS THE TRUTH AND CANT BE BOTHERED!! 🤷🏽♂️
Of course we don't have enough evidence for the resurrection of jesus. It doesn't mean it didn't happen, but consider this: the gospels were written decades after the fact, by unknown authors, that weren't eyewitnesses. And the synoptic gospels are all related, ie, same source. So the idea of "eyewitnesses" is flimsy, all we have is that somebody *wrote* that there were eyewitnesses, but who knows. And because it's a fantastic story, you have to be skeptical.

But take heart; I have overcome the world.” 2 Thessalonians 3:16 ~ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. Isaiah 26:3 ~ You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Matthew 5:9 ~ Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.

@@j_p_jr.487 what I mean is that slavery back then in the Roman Empire was less about race but paying off debts and I could be wrong but the population of the Roman Empire was largely slaves or there where a large number of slaves and Paul didn’t want them to go around starting revolts. Also Paul wrote to a slave owner to take back their runaway slave but not as a slave but as a brother in Christ.
@@j_p_jr.487 slavery is a violation to the right of human life in that all life is created in the image of God and so explain if God endorsed it by what Paul said then why does he also wrote to that slave owner to take back his slave but no longer as a slave but as a brother in Christ?

@@j_p_jr.487Just curious. How are us Christians, in a cult? You said God endorsed slavery. If that is the case, then Romans 1:18, is blatantly false. God is infinite and perfect, so why would he condone something that he’s vehemently against? “If”(he doesn’t) condones one iniquity, then the Bible doesn’t have any meaning. Since God is perfect, he condemns all sin. He has righteous anger and wrath towards all sin, not just some. He loves us so much, that he sent his only son(who is 100% God and 100% man), to pay the ultimate price for all our sins. God doesn’t want us to go to hell. Jesus didn’t have to bear the weight of all our sins, but he chose to. He chose to because he wants us to be with him. Sadly not everyone will go to heaven. You have every right to believe what you do. I don’t force my beliefs on you or anyone else. It’s your choice to make as I can’t make it for you. God Bless!
Nobody/Nothing can exist separate from God. They either exist eternally in his grace, mercy, wisdom, etc. or under his wrath and divine justice. Claiming non-believers will be able to exist for eternity separate from God just gives them exactly what they want. That is not how it works.
The fact they where willing to die for it only shows how much they believed it happened , it doesn't show if what they believed actually happened in reality.
In Judaism, there is the resurrection of the dead, and there are those who believe in it and those who do not. Has anyone questioned why dead people are resurrected, and how they are resurrected, whether by using spells? How many people want to live forever, and why? There are two events in Jesus Christ, His death and His resurrection. His death was a historical event and many people witnessed it, but why was His resurrection only witnessed by His disciples? What is faith? Where does faith come from? Does faith come because of evidence such as seeing it yourself, experiencing it yourself, history or archaeology etc? Jesus Christ said: "I am the way and the truth and the life." What is the way? What is the truth? Life?
John 20:29.....Jesus said to him, "Thomas, because you have seen Me, you believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." Thats all the 1st guy needs to know with his proof.

as cliffe says: "thats intellectually dishonest"
Exactly 👍 😊
Spot on.
The fallacious thinking is a real thing.
He was really angry, which is a pity.
He was repeating self-refuting claims. Got to love him anyway!
He was frying my brain. He even had the audacity to say Cliffe wouldn't let him speak 😂
@@j_p_jr.487 To be fair, Cliffe was just trying to keep up with the sheer amount of changes in directions the guy was taking.
I really respect how Cliff will just let them talk and fully formulate a thought. Even though at times it can turn into rambling and going off onto many different points, he doesn't cut them off.
I can’t believe that the majority of the students do not know anything about GOD. I feel compassion for them. Thank you Cliffe , that you use your knowledge of GOD, for the glory of JESUS CHRIST ❤😊
Frank Turek is fond of saying parents usually send their kids to collage having only telling them Christianity is true, and not having taught WHY it’s true! Any wonder why kids are deceived by atheist professors?
That's because many professors and universities are teaching atheism and communism. Communism has to destroy religion in order to exist that's why the Democrats and the left are against religion cause they want socialism/ communism
Corinthians 4:4 Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.
1st Corinthians 18-18 NIV) 18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
The patience you display while someone drones on making accusations and inferences as if you had answered, but not pausing for breath to allow it - is inspiring. These are so stressful to listen to! But, I have learned so much from your consistent explanations. My faith is strengthening and my ability to evangelize improved. It’s not preaching it’s reaching.
AMEN!
Have you seen church on a Sunday? Talk about Drones. It's a bunch of self-righteous followers of a False Roman Triad belief system worshipping a graven image!

First guy had a very interesting viewpoint, smart kid, hope he finds God
Indeed, Cliffe struggled with that one. We are all like Thomas now, lacking direct one-on-one evidence. It would have been more powerful if he had acknowledged that and explained to the student how to deal with it.

I'm fascinated that people still say that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
It requires ADEQUATE evidence. Nothing more.
How does one define adequate in regards to miracle claims?, your view of adequate may well be different to someone else's view of adequate.
Problem is these extraordinary claims have no evidence!

@@jasonmitchell7550 On the 13th October 1917 a crowd of an estimated 30,000 people in the town of Fatima in Portugal all testified they witnessed the sun zig zag around the sky, shoot coloured lights, move closer to the earth, and move away again.
They all claimed to be eyewitnesses. People in neighbouring towns saw nothing unusual. That was only a hundred years ago. How accurate do you think 2000 year old claims of eyewitness accounts are?
Try Googling "Miracle of Fatima" if you don't believe me!
@@mirandahotspring4019 Yes indeed, thats a great example, try looking directly at the Sun (not recommended), you will find the sun will burn it's image onto your retina for a minute or 2, and everywhere you look, the Sun will follow your gaze and seemingly dance around the sky, that is exactly what many observers noticed when you read the reports, people genuinely believed the Sun was moving erratically. There is good evidence for mass hysteria. ( also well worth a google).

No, not invaluable, but entertaining at how much BS someone can spew out.
@mirandahotspring4019 where is your evidence that what he speaks is "bs"?
@@MrJonykid His continual assertions that the resurrection is a historical event for one.
@@mirandahotspring4019 ...it is tho. Not only is it used for Christianity but throughout other religions they speak of his existence (whether other religions belive in him or not, they alude to him), and secularly speaking they are just now trying to move away from "AD" and "BC". So, historically it happened.
@@MrJonykid The AD/BC dating system is not evidence it historically happened, it was devised in 525 by Dionysius Exiguus but was not widely used until the 9th century. The current trend to CE/BCE is more acceptable for secular use, especially in Muslim and Hindu countries.
Islam acknowledges Jesus as a prophet before Mohammed. Many other religions don't mention him at all!
This brings me back twenty years to my early university days. I used to be proud of being a Buddhist rebelling against the smug members of the Christian establishment for being so vindictive in saying people deserve to be burned for something as insignificant as not believing in a person. My pastor made me see that Jesus opposed hypocritical spiritual laws of the Pharisees and that got me to turn 180 degrees and became a Christian the day I heard that. Thanks for your work Cliffe. I think as long as you are also willing to meet the youth halfway, and that means seeing things from their point of view. Here’s to many years of being a light to the nations, be blessed.
"They are darkened in their understanding,alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them,due to their hardness of heart." That's the reality of everyone outside of the reality of God's knowledge and what you're witnessing in these students and what their demonstrating in actuality.
I’ve only recently returned to Christ at 49. My biggest failure as a mother was not raising my children to know Christ. My youngest is 11 and we’ve been seeking churches together and he wants to go. My oldest went to church with his grandma. But my middle two sons are lost so I’m praying for God to intervene and save them. I hate that I made such a colossal mistake. 🙏✝️💔
@@GenXfrom75 it’s ok , there’s nothing you can do about the past, we’ve all made mistakes. But you’re doing good with your son in that you’re looking for churches with him . Keep doing that. Keep praying for your middle two sons and don’t stop. God has a way bringing people to him who are lost . I’m living proof of that. My father was a preacher and him and my mother never stopped praying for me- I was there Prodigal son- literally, but I eventually came to my senses ( as a lot of prodigal sons do) and came back home and came back to God . And I’ve never regretted it. Take care and God bless you and your sons and have a good day.
I use to think like these college students until I read the new testament of Matthew mark Luke and James and now, and after looking over the historic event I'm convinced Yeshua is who he claims he is and it will be wise for me to follow and try to lead people I love to him which is all of us.
Testament of James? Don't you mean John? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Better not rad Harry Potter, or you might end up believing in wizards!

The Epistle of James is indeed a legitimate part of the New Testament, separate from the Gospels. Assuming they meant John is presumptuous and shows a lack of understanding of the Bible.

@@Maximalias James is just a rant about believing and barely mentions Jesus.
He should still be careful reading Harry Potter, if he believes the bullshit in the new testament he'll believe anything! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@mirandahotspring4019
While James may not mention Jesus as frequently as other books, it still offers valuable insights into living a faithful life. Pugnaciously calling it a rant overlooks its importance to many believers and non-believers alike. Given that James is purportedly the brother of Jesus, his writings are profoundly relevant. Growing up around Jesus, who claimed to be God in human form, makes his epistle extraordinarily important as it conveys both direct and indirect lessons from Jesus.
Your approach seems designed to provoke and belittle from the start. For instance, saying “James is just a rant about believing and barely mentions Jesus” and suggesting that someone who believes in the New Testament would believe anything, like Harry Potter, are examples of flawed reasoning and logical fallacies, such as ad hominem attacks. These statements are not meant to engage in genuine debate but to frustrate and confuse. This is a common tactic among trolls who want to derail conversations and feel superior.
Given that you have well over 100 comments on this channel that follow the same formula of troll behavior, it reflects poorly on how you choose to spend your time. Contemplating why you feel the need to provoke others could lead to more fulfilling and constructive interactions.

The last guy essentially said it's absolutely true there is no absolute truth - and was talking so fast and angrily he didn't even realize he contradicted himself. He was talking out of emotion (hence his overt anger) and not logical reasoning.
I love you guys and your videos! I don't know if you guys have ever heard or talked to Jeff Durbin. He is a pastor for Apologia Church in Arizona I think, but he also does a podcast and post sermons. I think y'all would have great discussions.
Jeff Durbin: Do you believe in election?
Cliffe: I believe in election up until right about… now and then I believe I have a choice to make. I can choose to serve Christ and love others or I can do what Cliffe wants.
Cliff staying calm while getting shouted at by multiple people at once is impressive to see, my heart was racing just while watching 😅
Man, I love that brother and brother keep preaching for God

First guy really said: "I search for the truth."
"BUT NOT THAT TRUTH"
Holy smokes, you can literally watch a genuine seed being planted in the guy around minute 27. Amazing.
Amazing words, love it and is spoken very wisely with the way people can understand situations from both sides of truth. Great work.
John 20:29 Jesus told him, “Is it because you have seen me that you have believed? How blessed are those who have never seen me and yet have believed!”
I saw a conversation the other day where the argument “we can’t prove historically that Jesus rose from the dead, because all the accounts are either in the Bible or are people who believe in Christ and the resurrection. They’re biased.” The response was “It makes perfect sense that the people who saw and confirmed the resurrection would believe in Christ. It would be quite difficult to provide proof of an event that you don’t believe happened. And if you saw it happen with your own eyes, you’d probably be pretty convinced of everything else Jesus had to say as well.”
The first man's argument is perfect and cliff then reveals the true christ when he says if you have a heart for Jesus he will reveal himself to you. He is everywhere if we look for him but he is nowhere if we look to not find him
Truth doesn't depend on likelihood
Jesus was telling the truth! And still is!
You see him bringing temptation into the argument I love it even id drop everything to go on vacation with cliffe
It'sso great, thanks so much Cliffe Knechtle!
Jesus is the narrow way, but the only true way. And people don't wan't go his way, because it seems uncomfortable. But Jesus is in the end of a day freedom, peace, life, security...and most of all God. Nobody speaks like Jesus. And without holy spirit you can't even belive in him. Iam a sinner but I will fight evil spirits till the end.❤❤❤
The young man in 35:00, when he has children he will see the world differently. He does not see that it does matter who people believe God is. God forbid anything bad happens to his kids, but he will see the importance of there being right and wrong. Because as parents we want our children to have good and happy life's, just like God wants for us.
Jesus Christ is the way,the truth and the life
28:30 can’t believe bro said “BAR”😂
It's internally consistent ❤
Living for the search is ridiculous. Search implies there's an endpoint. That sounds like something he just made up to sound like he had something to live for to answer Cliff's question. They might as well say they just want to wander aimlessly. The danger with that is that they fall off a cliff.
He's lucky that Cliff is willing to take what he says seriously.
NEW CLIFF VIDEO JUST DROPPED 🎉
Cliff and the patience of Job. At 20:03 I might have said, all are systems of works vs grace
John 20:29
Jesus said unto him, “Thomas, because thou hast seen Me, thou hast believed. Blessed are they that have not seen and yet have believed.”
The reason why religious arguments are so heated most of the time is because as a believer in Christ speaking to a non-believer you’re often pushing against the brick wall they’ve put up as a barrier between themselves and God.
Jesus spoke about this in John 15:18-27
“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not done among them the works no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated me without reason.’ “When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father-the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father-he will testify about me. And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.
Nah, they just know BS when they hear it. That's not putting up a brick wall, that's calling out nonsense.

i dont understany why videos are cut, and we don't see the rest of the debate. I would love to see answer from black man at the end but that is cut...
Usually it's because that person stops talking with cliffe and someone else starts a conversation. That lady is the brown crop top probably started talking immediately after. At least that's what I noticed

In terms of earthly possessions I don't have much and it used to bother me but since I accepted god he's all I need and more my life now had meaning and value thank you Jesus ❤ God bless you cliff you really helped to strengthen my faith in Jesus christ ❤
I think it's important to understand what the Bible is and how we got it. The "historical, empirical evidence" guys have an understanding that the Bible is "just a book". A lot of people don't understand the history of the Bible and therefore hold it to a significantly higher standard than anything else of history despite biblical evidence being objectively more accurate and consistent than many sources of secular antiquity.
35:08 and once again the relativism, mixed arguments..
Kudos to Cliffe for his patience...
The life of Thomas is the evidence that we now have. Thomas didn’t have the evidence we have, he hadn’t seen Jesus raised yet (when he made those claims) and so doubted, but we these years later have the evidence of a thomas who doubted but then believed to the point of death
Thank you because IAM . Yes the real Jesus I hear you and thank you for believing in me I'm alive.

What? 😂
Bruh 🤦♂️pls stop before something bad actually comes ur way for saying that
@@bonnie43ukbeware of false prophets...if jesus came back we would all know it, it wouldn't be a secret
One thing I noticed often during these videos is a lot of people will ask a question but than continue to talk and talk and talk. They usually don't want an answer. They just want to make a statement disguised as a question.
The evidence is also that Cliffe didnt interrupt the gentleman while he talked, but the gentleman didn't allow the same respect.
Absolutely, he was very rude and I don't think he knows one region from the other.
He is also the way and the light
So one thing that would be helpful for Cliffe to address is the what I have heard is a main reason why people have a barrier to believing. It is not so much that they do respect historical evidence, but mostly because we don't have many historical resurrection accounts. We have plenty of historical accounts of people being crazy or lying or other "natural" events, but what Cliffe needs to address is the very rare if any accounts of other resurrections in addition to the claim in the bible of Jesus' historical resurrection. By the way I am a follower of Jesus and am not only pointing this out but would love some wisdom on this idea as well.
You make a good point, but as the skeptic points out, I don't think we can have sufficient evidence for this "resurrection" from 2k years ago. It's just not there. There were no video cameras, no computers, etc. to record things. And we really don't have any other evidence for this besides the gospels (written decades after the fact by non eyewitnesses). When you read other contemporary accounts (in particular by roman historians) nobody mentions anything about some sort of "resurrection".
14:12 hell absolutely IS eternal fire and that is exactly what the Bible and the Lord Jesus Christ teach. But, i believe you can interpret that the soul that goes there doesn't burn for eternity, but burns up into non existence, however long it takes for a soul to burn up
The scripture says burn for eternity PERIOD. SOUL too. I'm not sure why Cliffe says things like that. I like his preaching but but there's some other things that he says that's questionable.
@@user-cu3xn4xj3i he has many questionable doctrines that just don't coincide with what the Word says. I do like his philosophical approach with these college students, but Cliffe just doesn't believe what the scripture says. He thinks science contradicts the Bible and tries to fit billions of years in Genesis 1. That's just not what the Word says if you take it for what it says. As for eternal burning, the only scripture i can think of with anyone burning for eternity is Revelation where the false prophet and the beast are for eternity and then the dragon, Satan, is cast there with them after the millennial reign. But i don't know of any verse that says people will burn for eternity, they go there to perish in the eternal flame
Fact theres a few things I don’t agree with him especially that and one time he said some ppl that commit suicide won’t go to hell js many things I agree but some stuff I don’t
I think its because when the bible calls hell an eternal fire its more methorical because it also refers to hell as a dark place so how would you have eternal fire if its dark
I think its because when the bible calls hell an eternal fire its more methorical because it also refers to hell as a dark place so how would you have eternal fire if its dark
That girl around 17:00 doesn't "say anything" when Cliff presses her on what she just said. I hope she studied the gospels and is now a sister in Christ.
Slaves obeying their masters in the New Testament is referring to willing, paid servants by the way. Cliff might have been able to answer if the guy would shut up for a second to actually let him answer, but he's not interested in truth, he just wants to rant forever and not let the other side talk, because that's what people do who are confident in their positions, they shut down all debate
Is this the real cliffe channel? If yes where does he do this Ussualy??
Taste and see the goodness of God ❤
I GOD WILL TAKE VENGEANCE ON EVIL. NOTHING UNHOLY WILL STAND. I HAVE GATHERED & MARKED MY PEOPLE
I would like to see the conclusion with the first college student.
According to this student, we would not have enough evidence to convict any criminal in a court of law. He needs 100% uncontroversial evidence for anyone charged with a crime.
The underoath tee shirt guy 🤝
"these things don't normally happen at all" is like saying the big bang doesn't normally happen at all. GOD is real. So was the big bang. GOD created the big bang in order to create everything.
it's always the people who don't listen who are quick to say "you're not listening"
Perhaps the question should be this.
If it’s true that the resurrection did indeed happen, would it be sufficient to convince you to become a follower of Jesus Christ. Yes or no.
In my time I guess I’ve seen it all says the servant of all that’s me that’s Paul. But I do know that those whom God opposes, are those who will not accept His son the Lord Jesus Christ the Rose of Sharon. They will be kept at bay and very far away for God chooses not these ones to be with His son. They are ill fated to be destroyed for instead of lovers of truth they toyed with truth and hated it. Initially in hell shall
they be yelling and cursing and blaming God, who can tell. But eventually their end will arrive when they’re no longer alive but it’ll be preceded by taking the blame and accepting the truth with heart braking shame. They will repent and be sorry for all their sins agreeing to need to be destroyed as though they never existed,
for it was against God whom they madly resisted. It’s our duty to God to warn these ones and of course we shall, for they loved not God’s only begotten son, though shall they repent this side of hell. And as we’ve performed our heavenly theme of warning them over and over again, our slate is wiped clean, for their blood will not be found on our hands that the justice of God certainly demands.
Romans 10:9-10
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
Just saying, the gospels do infact refer to hell as the eternal fire. Matthew 25:41 “ “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.” Verse 46 then says “And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Now I’m not one to prompt fear mongering or condemn anyone, but we’ve gotta tell it as it is pertaining to God’s plan for humanity.
If these students put as much effort and thought into seeking Jesus as they do seeking to disprove Him… What’s certain is that their minds are being programmed. This isn’t the inquisitive thinking that considers all sides of things that is supposed to be encouraged in college.
Cliff does not believe that he'll is also eternal fire? There's another point I disagree with him.
But 95% I agree with his teaching
This guy is good talking about the Bible
I actually got mad for no good reason when that girl basically said i cant read a book that may possibly be the most important step iv ever taken in life because i was raised by parents that said im energy
So, What about Corie Ten-Boom family not resisting the Nazis? Should they have met force-with-force when assaulted by Nazis? Very curious for an answer.
I think you could get 2 different answers- 1) yes- protecting my family even to the point of death; and 2) being like shadrack, meshack, and abedengo to be willing to go to their deaths knowing God could save them, but even if He doesn’t, they wouldn’t bow. Look at the disciples and all His followers who went to their deaths without a fight.
19:50... what I was telling my old homie long time
Would have liked to hear what that last girl wanted to ask
God literally has to bring a person to the knowledge of divine and spiritual truth or nobody can or will ever know that's reality.
This man is going to live a long life. Do you know why? Because God gives these type of people the most amount of time to go deeper and deeper into sin with his lies so he will not be able to escape the punishment of hellfire.
By the young man's criteria no one could be saved today.
Am I the only one who hears someone say "I need more proof/evidence than that", and the only response I can fathom is "who do you think you are to think you deserve an omnibenevolent God pandering to you"?
in accordance with the first guy's standard we can not open the door for fear of entering the vacuum of space.
What really blows my mind is how can THEY REFUSE TO EVEN READ THE BOOK but so offended by it? Then I ask the question why even argue it? They all shove it off as if “I would would never” BUT STILL FILL THE NEED STAND AROUND AND ARGUE IT AND LITERALLY WAIT!!!!! TO SEE IF SOMEONE ELSE CAN PROVE CLIFF WRONG AS IF THEY CANT STAND IT!!!!
And the entire time watching im this i get the feeling as if there spirits are just HEATED IN ANGER TO THE POINT THEY CANT EVEN LEAVE!!! ITS NOT THE BIBLE THATS THE PROBLEM ITS CHRIST!!
BECAUSE CHRIST CHANGED EVERYTHING!!!
THIS IS LITERALLY THE SPIRIT OF THE ANTICHRIST!
smh but in my opinion it’s simple, it’s in our human nature to be naive!
TO PUT OURSELVES BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE OURSELVES ARE ALL WE KNOW!
And that screams! I know! My lifestyle choices has a consequence and anything that SHINES THE LIGHT TO IT! Is a threat! “We fight-or-flight response, or stress response, is triggered by the release of hormones either prompting us to stay and fight”
But yet to cliff, he’s FINE AND CONTENT BECAUSE HE HAS THE TRUTH AND CANT BE BOTHERED!! 🤷🏽♂️
Does he still go around and do this on campuses?
The shroud of turin...is called Evidence!!!
Of course we don't have enough evidence for the resurrection of jesus. It doesn't mean it didn't happen, but consider this: the gospels were written decades after the fact, by unknown authors, that weren't eyewitnesses. And the synoptic gospels are all related, ie, same source. So the idea of "eyewitnesses" is flimsy, all we have is that somebody *wrote* that there were eyewitnesses, but who knows. And because it's a fantastic story, you have to be skeptical.
John 16:33 ~ I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
2 Thessalonians 3:16 ~ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.
Isaiah 26:3 ~ You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.
Matthew 5:9 ~ Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
John 14:27 ~ Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
Romans 12:18 ~ If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.
Colossians 3:15 ~ And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.

@@j_p_jr.487 what I mean is that slavery back then in the Roman Empire was less about race but paying off debts and I could be wrong but the population of the Roman Empire was largely slaves or there where a large number of slaves and Paul didn’t want them to go around starting revolts. Also Paul wrote to a slave owner to take back their runaway slave but not as a slave but as a brother in Christ.
@@j_p_jr.487 slavery is a violation to the right of human life in that all life is created in the image of God and so explain if God endorsed it by what Paul said then why does he also wrote to that slave owner to take back his slave but no longer as a slave but as a brother in Christ?

@@j_p_jr.487Just curious. How are us Christians, in a cult?
You said God endorsed slavery. If that is the case, then Romans 1:18, is blatantly false. God is infinite and perfect, so why would he condone something that he’s vehemently against? “If”(he doesn’t) condones one iniquity, then the Bible doesn’t have any meaning. Since God is perfect, he condemns all sin. He has righteous anger and wrath towards all sin, not just some. He loves us so much, that he sent his only son(who is 100% God and 100% man), to pay the ultimate price for all our sins. God doesn’t want us to go to hell. Jesus didn’t have to bear the weight of all our sins, but he chose to. He chose to because he wants us to be with him. Sadly not everyone will go to heaven. You have every right to believe what you do. I don’t force my beliefs on you or anyone else. It’s your choice to make as I can’t make it for you. God Bless!
Nobody/Nothing can exist separate from God. They either exist eternally in his grace, mercy, wisdom, etc. or under his wrath and divine justice. Claiming non-believers will be able to exist for eternity separate from God just gives them exactly what they want. That is not how it works.
The fact they where willing to die for it only shows how much they believed it happened , it doesn't show if what they believed actually happened in reality.
In Judaism, there is the resurrection of the dead, and there are those who believe in it and those who do not.
Has anyone questioned why dead people are resurrected, and how they are resurrected, whether by using spells?
How many people want to live forever, and why?
There are two events in Jesus Christ, His death and His resurrection.
His death was a historical event and many people witnessed it, but why was His resurrection only witnessed by His disciples?
What is faith?
Where does faith come from?
Does faith come because of evidence such as seeing it yourself, experiencing it yourself, history or archaeology etc?
Jesus Christ said:
"I am the way and the truth and the life."
What is the way?
What is the truth?
Life?
John 20:29.....Jesus said to him, "Thomas, because you have seen Me, you believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
