I've just binge watched some of your content. I love your boldness, your commitment, your genuine loving attitude and Biblical approach. Very refreshing to watch a young man speak of these super important issues. Your parents must be proud of you ❤️
My problem is that I'm not a sensitive guy. I'm not the kind of guy to say "I love you and I care about your feelings". Even though that may be true, that's just not how I communicate. I'm a very practical and stoic kind of person. So I often come across as not caring if someone already has that opinion of me.
That’s perfectly fine, I think trying to make everyone respond the exact same regardless of personality differences is infeasible and impractical. Debates shouldn’t be a war to see who is right, but should be a trade or exchange of ideas that in the end make both participants more intelligent. If you’re debating over a sensitive topic, it’s important to try to understand the other person’s perspective (their feelings, thoughts, and motives). This means that instead of retorting whenever you have more evidence than the other person, you should ask them “How did you get to that conclusion?” If they bring up a point that seems ridiculous or is easily refuted, don’t scoff at them but genuinely ask them more questions. If they scoff or ridicule you, try to keep your calm and remind them that this is a discussion, not an argument. I hope this reply doesn’t seem condescending or as if I’m telling you what to do, I’m just trying to tell you some things that work for me, you can do whatever you want. You don’t have to be soft, comforting, or sensitive in order to debate these topics, you just have to be understanding.
@@chrissonofpear1384 Have in mind 3 things: 1) he granted us free will. Yes he is very very very disappointed how we use it and produce injustice, but he endures it patiently, for years and centuries and millenniums... 2) He will put an end to it. Then it will matter how we used this free will he gave us 3) (This is subjective, but) I've had lot of experiences where I encountered his grace and his turning things around for well, despite the odds.
Honestly following Jesus is like Addicts Anonymous but is instead a support group for sinners. We are not better because we are in the group but we are trying to do/be better we will fall off the wagon we will do wrong but we will get back on the wagon which is the Bible and try again. We are all in the same boat those in Jesus have a better seat doesn't make them better just blessed.
@@DailyDisciple - sir, please take one minute and read this Here is the Original Semitic Text. HERE is The Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT jesus, and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
I can’t imagine how this conversation would have played out if lgbt had the same convo with Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Mormons, or even Jewish people.
They probably would have kissed up to the muslims and buddhists as people tend to do that as I’ve seen, and would have torn the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of LDS apart. People tend to not like us, even other Christians. The Jews though…. That’s a mixed bag. If they’re secular jews they’d be buddy buddy. I know some jews that identify as nonbinary and I’m I’m willing to bet they’re secular to a degree. But they’d probably be staring daggers at orthodox jews. This is just my opinion on things, though. Any time I try to argue my beliefs with them, even other members of The Church that identify as queer, I get passive aggressively shot down or even cry bullied. They’re masters at cry bullying.
I can. Muslims would have maybe been a little more stern than these Christians, but they would have been kind. Buddhist would have been completely accepting. There is no sutra against homosexuality in Buddhism. I don’t think there is any sutra in Hinduism either. Jewish people, just like Muslims and Christians, it depends on the particular community. Some have no problems with it. Some are adamantly opposed to it being present in public.
And Mormon’s? Well those are the sweetest Christians I’ve ever met. I think they may have said the same sort of things these Christians said. The only difference is that they don’t have a belief in an eternal fiery torture. They have a kinder religion in that regard.
You said it best when you said "Hey I disagree with you but I still love you..." with the minor adjustment, instead of "I still want to help and minister to you", that's a turn off, and we rather need to use the simple language of the world, like "I still want to be your friend and share my views with you honestly". Paul says "To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some." (1 Cor 9:20-22)
Ahh yes, Christians using manipulation. Truly people of god who are holy. No wonder people hate y'all so much. Only ever try to get people to reach you not the other way around. Like a toxic relationship.
@@jonova3187 It's not manipultion. It's more like "using your language so you can understand me", "seeing world through your eyes so we can get to the common ground". It's called empathy, not manipulation. The opposite of that would be "I will remain in my ivory tower and I won't lower myself to your level". And, about reaching people, my main motivation is Christ, to serve, to help out, to hang out with new and not-so-loving people and then - maybe then if we get to know each other - I would share with them my beliefs.
@@jonova3187 Better than? I'm not better, I'm a sinner as the next person is. I'm grateful and motivated. BTW, I was illustrating the way I reach, because of your reply "Only ever try to get people to reach you not the other way around."; otherwise I wouldn't have written that.
Then you don't love your uncles. You only love the version of them that is ideal to you. It's why I'm critical of Christians. Your love isn't love it's judgmental and condescending. You don't say the same things to people who have pre-marital sex. Ultimately, you see LGBT+ people and people who don't fit your exact plan of god. Your arrogance blinds you. Christianity isn't the only way.
* you see people who don't believe exactly as you do as sub-human. You don't see people as multi-faceted or whole you see them as something that needs to be fixed when you are no better. Just arrogant.
@@jonova3187 exactly we are no better, we are only dirt and maybe worst than non - Christians because when we sin we kwow God doesn't like it and non-Christians when they sin they don't care because it's not sin to him. So yes we are worst but are made better by God by his grace. God's desire is not everyone to die but to live with him . He says in the bible that he gave us life and death in front of us and we have to choose. Us Christian want everyone to live and have a party with Christ after death not the burning fire of hell . I don't know if you have praid in your life but just try it out once by saying < the God of Christians if you are trully good please let me have a heart to heart expérience with you> and if you are sincere he will respond and you will meet the best thing in your life!!!!
@@neika-berthesineon2868 homosexuality isn’t a sin, because loving another human isn’t a sin. Christians love to use that tactic. Or hate the sin love the sinner but, never say being straight is a sin or pre-marital. Marriage is the exception for heterosexual sin. Yet, you don’t say that. You only judge and speak about gay people NOT straight people. You use gay people as scape goat without knowing the nuance or experiences of gay people or being gay yourself. Being gay is a base trait it’s neutral just like heterosexuality and a fact of life. No matter what the Bible says. There’s a difference between Humans trying to say what god means and god showing you. Gay people living their truths and acting more loving to others than most Christians is god showing you ❤️❤️
@@jonova3187 We love God our lord Jesus Christ who died for our sins. And we believe that he forgave our sins by being crucified for us. And he is the truth, the way and the life. And our morals and ways comes by his words (the bible). The bible teaches us and his words tells us that we are sinners that only by his grace, we are saved in his name. And everyone goes the trouble of sinning.hence why he brought us the holy spirit in us to ask for his wisdom to have a relationship with him. To hear his voice in our hearts. And once we are forgiven and ask for forgiveness. We have him by our side to right our ways to change every aspect of our lives. And im sorry if u feel judged as it is not our ways to try to judge people. Since the scripture says to look at the log in our eyes before judging others. What we try to do is to tell the truth about him. And what he says. And ultimately is up to you, if u want to listen or not. But well the bible is gods words. But all i know, if u really want the truth. Then ask God if u believe that he is real, then ask God to open your eyes and see what is the real truth. Ask and u shall receive. Well i hope is well. Have a nice day
When a person has a tendency to do something that is considered sinful, a way out would be confession. You're still being honest with yourself while giving yourself the freedom to not do it. You can confess to yourself but I rather confess to God. Sometimes I even confess to my sibling or to my wife who are more understanding than other people.
@@chrissonofpear1384 Are you asking me what my interpretation of this is or are you setting me up for you to tell me what your interpretation is? Are you genuinely curious as to what I think or are you being argumentative? Because I was talking about people thinking of making sinful decisions and how they might overcome this with how their psyche might work, if it's relatable to the lady with purple hair. If you're genuinely curious, I can give you my interpretation.
it does say in the Bible to confess to God & (I forget where it says) the Bible encourages confession among peers who are supportive of you to help stay accountable so confessing to your loved ones is perfectly natural & sometimes God works through His followers to help
Because it doesn't matter to us. We have no interests in christian scriptures and see them as irrelevant due to it not being our base of belief. I am an atheist. I don't care what the bible says about what things to do and what not to do because in my eyes it is nothing but a fantasy book people use to get money and/or gain controll over people. And although I see no use in religion, I don't have anything against people who choose to believe and follow a religion. My problem is only with the people who use their religion to judge others and/or use it as an excuse to judge, harrass or even harm other people on the name of what they call "god". Because in the end, believing something is not the same as knowing something.
What’s hard to remember is that no sin is “greater” than another. They all separate us from god. Love your stuff. Could you maybe address abortion when it comes to rape or a situation where the mother could be killed? I always have a hard time staying on gods path when talking to others about this ;)
Jaden Fillenberg the best person to watch on this issue in my opinion is Jeff Durbin of Apologia studios, but the stances I have heard is that the child should not be killed because of the fathers crime in the case of rape and then for safety of the mother it’s not abortion it’s saving someone’s life( mostly in the case where both the baby and the mother will both die either way). But those make up at most 3% of abortions so it’s not really the main objection and it shouldn’t be where the conversation you have is confined to. :)
I fully disagree with this whole statement , they Bible clearly says to tell people , the Bible actually shows a greta picture of Jesus doing this with the Pharisees and bringing them knowledge of Gods word and their sin and they chose not to follow on the other hand nicodemus was a Pharisee and he chose to follow Jesus , see we have to tell people
@@abdullahrumi6938 we don’t share the same God and I doubt you actually get answered prayers I’m sorry. Don’t call me a brother please. I will pray for you that you may find truth.
I like how you have a good non judgmental Christian view point on this subject matter. Just one thing You may want to edit is the verse you used( -@video bit 11:30-) John 8:7 this would be a good verse to use too and would go along well with this topic matter, but the verse you were reading from was Romans 8:7. Jesus is the holy light of righteousness in this dark foreboding world. Hallelujah!
You make some good points. Being slow to speak and quick to listen is definitely a wise choice for these conversations. Also "raygs". No one would know if you were Canadian if not for the raygs 😆
I appreciate your sensitivity and genuine understanding of where people are coming from, where they are in life. That's something that is not seen often enough in the Christian community. Quick note though, the word "minister" comes across as demeaning and "holier-than-thou." As a former Christian I understand what it means to a Christian, but to everyone else it is just an instant turn off. Also, I'm glad you didn't mention this, but many Christians feel the need to offer to pray for their friends stuck in "worldly" lifestyles. This also comes across as demeaning and "holier-than-thou" despite the good intentions I understand are behind it. My suggestion would be simply pray for them in silence.
You don't pray for people in silence, you can pray for them and not tell them about it, but it is always better to ask to pray for them, some people actually require physical contact during prayer. I don't know why or how "minister" can be seen as holier than thou when it literally means to serve or a servant.
@@Maksie0 Because many times prayer only works if what you pray matches what the person being prayed for believes so if you pray for someone then it is better that they know what you are praying so that what they believe matches what you believe; for instance you can pray for someone to be healed of a disease but if they don't believe that they will be healed and in that belief they constantly speak against their healing then your prayer is pointless. For others as I said physical contact is needed. In fact for unbelievers it is necessary because the bible says that it is necessary. It is necessary because unbelievers don't have the Holy Ghost within them so His power can't work in them unless someone who has the Holy Ghost transfers His power to them via touch and speech.
@@Maksie0 The power of God is limited by faith because that is the way God intended it to be, the more faith a person has, the more accessible His power is to them.
@@Skwiddd90 I don't think that's what he meant. I think he meant he's a Christian and wants to live for God, but still struggles trying to put his identity into his flesh instead of jesus. Atleast that's what I took from what he said.💗
I get it, I used to feel like that too. I was at best, a lukewarm Christian. I don't remember the turning point but I do know God opened my eyes and starting renewing my mind. Now I'm growing I'm the Word and self-discipline daily. First thing to note is that it's a relationship you have with Christ, not a religion. You don't obey Him to be accepted; you obey Him _because_ you're accepted. You're not working to earn anything; God has freely given it to you. The first commenter said it well, your identity is found in Christ😊 Secondly, you have to build a relationship with God. Spiritual growth is key. He longs to be near you but won't force you into His presence. When I was lukewarm, I never really studied the Word or prayed. Best I did was read a verse off of an app for 5 minutes every day or prayed before I ate or slept. I _knew_ what I had to do but I just wasn't doing it and I was making excuses like "God understands my busy schedule-" like no. Let's say you had a crush on someone and wanted to get to know them better, what's the best way to do that? Spend time with them! If you literally ignore that person every day, nothing shows you have any affection for them. It's similar to God. Spend time with Him through: 1. Prayer 2. Reading & studying the Word 3. Fasting Prayer is simply talking to God, you can do this throughout your day about anything and everything. Study the Word (don't just read) in depth. Any student knows you can't understand a subject by just *reading* a textbook about it 5 minutes every day yet we often think we can understand the Creator of the universe by simply *reading* about Him for 5 minutes (although no one can understand God 100%). Let the Holy Spirit lead you into all truth. Fasting is abstaining from something that takes up a lot of your time and spending that time with God instead. Contrary to popular belief, it's not necessarily food, it can be social media for instance. I can assure you that if you abide in Jesus, you'll have no problem with your identity. I can promise you that. I used to hate the way I looked, sounded and thought I was inferior. Now I know I'm much more precious than I ever though because my name is written in the hand of Christ. It's not magic, it's the transformative power of the gospel. God bless you!
It's rejection of repenting. It's when the holy spirit tells you to repent and gives you a bad conscience on what you are doing and you decide to harden you heart until you don't repent at all.
No. Context was concerning the hearts of the Pharisees being hard and unmoved in their belief that there was not a Holy Spirit. The fact that they blasphemed the Holy Spirit by not recognizing Him as part of the Godhead was the issue and because of their unchanging belief they were not going to be forgiven, even with all of their religious checkoffs concerning their tight adherence to the law that Jesus came to fulfill and did fulfill. It was never a "worst sin". All sin puts a divide between God and humankind and demands a price of judgement. Jesus came to satisfy the penalty for all sins and the good news of the gospel is that when we enter into relationship with Jesus, the Holy Spirit indwells us and our hearts are changed. The Pharisees didn't want that change but it's available to all.
degree of punishment, but no degree to sin. I've always been confused about this subject, but that's a very good point, all sin is the same and no sin is worse then the other but one sin can have a different punishment and impact.
@@marvalice3455 the unforgivable sin is the sin of rejecting God. Not that it’s worse. But that sin causes your path to go to the path of hełł, it’s not that it’s worse, it’s that you can never be forgiven because you never asked for it. It’s like hardening your own heart to God. Sometimes there’s a way back. And sometime your don’t allow yourself to go back.
7:02 - Degrees of punishment 7:32 - Pride in comparing sin against others lower or higher than yourself 8:20 - “Denying my natural urge feels like sin”
I was LGBTQ+ guy before I met Christ and it turns out it's all a lie that you can't do anything about it. And you, my brother, are the person I was looking for-- finally, someone who doesn't agree with people when they are wrong, but loves them anyways. Keep up the good work, I wish more people could see this amazing content
One thing im interested in asking and I hope you take no offense, before you met Christ, when you identified as LGBTQ+, were you tuly happy, or are you happier now? How has your life changed?
I got a question too, it is true that's imposible to change? You stopped being LGTB but suppres that attraction or it is Possible to choose not to be LGTB anymore, I ask because they claim that you are born Homosexual and you cannot change it. But if it was like that, then there will be no point in being a Christian.
@@Mike-xh2vm I don't know if you can completely get rid of it, but it doesn't really matter if you ask me. Everyone has certain desires or fetishes we shouldn't act upon. Human nature is sinful and everyone has something bad in them they should suppress. If you focus on God you kind of forget about what you are not supposed to do and you just think about what are you supposed to do
@@ekstraworszt6792 That's the best answer I could Possible heard... Thanks a lot for your time, you are completely right but I do believe is Possible, because nothing is impossible for God.
No one is really answering you in detail. We can love because God first loved us. Read that Corinthians 13 passage, it is in fact practical. Essentially we are to show love by imitating Jesus Christ, the author of love. Being in tune with the Holy Spirit, praying honestly and fervently, including for our enemies. Forgiving also. Patient. Kind. Giving. Faithful. Bold yet humble. Trustworthy. Respectful yet honest. Care taking. Listening. Telling the Truth. All things JC was and is, especially seen in the new testament gospels (1st four books). It is the sweetest story ever. Hope that helps.
This just popped up on my channel feed. I must say, overall pretty well done. Thank you daily disciple, truly. I am a convert out of Lgbtq. Jesus has more for us and this is a topic that needs to be understood & addressed better in the Church! The bible condems even a Hint of sexual immorality...because it seperates us from our true Creator & Partner. Our real identity can be found through Jesus. Also, I apologize to all of the Lgbtq community that have not seen or felt this Love. But I assure you, NO ONE can ever love you or fill you like God can. So trust & believe because it will transform your soul and you will have the power through the Spirit to overcome and be reconciled to the one holy, trustworthy, loving, beautiful God. ♡
@@aliciab92989 My view is simple. Nobody chooses what people they're attracted to. Some people are straight, some are bi, some are gay, etc. Having these attractions is natural. And pursuing relationships with the people you're attracted to, as long as it's done with consent and respect, causes no harm. So there's no rational reason to oppose it.
@@Maksie0 Good morning, I would agree that it is natural in the sense that it is not chosen. And that it can be done in consent, respect, etc. But what if I told you God created us and allowed seperation in order for the ultimate love story? That there is hope for the life to come (ie spiritual). That humans have a deeper part, spirits. And that Jesus Christ (God's human form) was sent in perfect love to redeem us from everything in this physical world, not just sexuality. That all sin seperates us from God's love because God is holy, perfect. So Jesus came as an atonement for that. A redemption of God's people. You would not want any part of that?
There is an unforgivable sin, so clearly some must be worse than others. I disagree that murder id the greatest sin though. The greatest sin is to hate God. God can raise the dead, but he cannot make restitution for you hating him
We all have fallen short of Gods glory and we all deserve hell but the good news is Jesus died on the cross for our sins so we don’t have to go there and through Him we can be saved if we repent of our sins and believe in Him love you bro this is not to make you fear but to show you why not to fear because of Jesus Christ
Could you give an example, of that glory, @Emmanuel FOC ? Or we talking Jeremiah 2:30 type, here, or Ezekiel 24:21, or Leviticus 25 - loopholes, arguably, and all? As they begin to get a little murky over time - including how defunct or not, they were post Matthew 5:18. Also, what part of angels required delusional pride, in their psyche?
@@EmmanuelFOC on why angels were ever designed delusional, or gullible - and what knowledge Adam and Eve SHOULD have had, to make 'choices', ahem, for billions not yet born - for starters?
@@chrissonofpear1384 Angels have free will that’s why satan had the choice to rebel against God or be submissive and serve God and Adam and Eve needed the knowledge that God gave them because Hod being all knowing knows what we need and gives us that rather than what we want
@@EmmanuelFOC So what? No point in pursuing a FUTILE, suicidal goal, unless they WERE suddenly delusional, ignorant, or gullible, surely? What was to be gained. And why create an angel with delusional, suicidal pride, to sway any others? And WE DO NOT HAVE equal free will - not since Eden, and not since 1 Corinthians 2:14, or 2 Timothy 1, either. And if He was all knowing, why does He need to have BLOOD put on doors, to know WHICH houses to nuke, in Egypt, in Passover - or to send angels to learn who was travelling with Balaam, in Numbers 22? And why does Moses, a human, need to calm Him down, in Numbers 14:32 (thereabouts) after a tantrum? Also, did He KNOW the mess 1 Corinthians 10 and Matthew 27:25, and Leviticus 25, would cause, or not? More of a mess, than one man gathering sticks on Sabbath apparently ever caused, in Numbers 15, which we KNOW got the very personal touch, from Him?
Helloo So, a week ago, I decided to stop being lukewarm, and wanted to be fully christian. But one problem I came across was confused on how to actually start reading the Bible. Any tips for reading the Bible properly perhaps? Or where to start reading the Bible?

Hi Isaac, you have a very calvinist approach towards your interpretation of Christianity, and sometimes I feel like you could improve your content by opening up a bit to other traditions or at least acknowledging them and teach your audience about them 😊 An example in this video is that you are being totally dismissive of natural theology, especially as expressed in Romans 2:14-15, which does mention that humans "without the law" have a notion of right and wrong, as written by God on their heart, which you didn't even mention and even contradicted when dealing with the blue haired lady answers. Otherwise, although I sometimes disagree with your theology, you seem to be a dedicated, honest and uncompromising Christian, and this in itself is awesome 💪
@@mramirez5239 Are you talking about the 5 solae ? Because if so, that's not exclusively from Calvin, it's common to the whole Reformed tradition (Lutherans, Zwiglists etc)
But why are homosexual desires more sinful than heterosexual desires? Also we can interpret certain passages keeping in mind the differences between the historical context and the current context. For example some passages saying slaves should obey their masters. So why cant we apply the same interpretation to the passages about homosexuality?
If by "desires" you mean sexual lusts and acts, the reason is because God made woman for man and deviation from that is called abominable by God. I'm not sure what interpretation you are talking about, but the scriptures telling slaves to be obedient to their masters aren't just talking about people who are owned by other people. Earlier in those passages it tells children to be obedient to their parents and one of them tells a wife to submit to her husband. The point of the passages is telling believers to submit to and obey those who the lord has allowed to be placed over you, this includes your boss on the job and your pastor at your Church (particularly your pastor because they are the person who minister God's word to you) as though you are submitting to and obeying God because He has placed them in their positions concerning you. Of course there are times when you may need to disobey them but those times are to be discerned using the law of the Spirit.
@@lilchristuten7568 but since no one can prove it for others the problem is you people should stop preaching against them your belief is what you should follow not by them if you cant keep it and use that way in kinda forcing or acting like gods to banish other communities your religions are just cult as long as you act like that.
@@1233-i3f "But since no one can prove it" Prove what? That God created woman for man? That can be proven quite easily, biology says that two men can't have children with each other and two women can't have children with each other. The rest of your comment is incomprehensible.
@@lilchristuten7568 lol you missed the point. It is not about proving if they can have a child or not , they cant, biologically its a fact but its about their choice, a man wearing girls dress or marrying another man harm no one or is not wrong unless you people just say its wrong coz they are as real as ypu who have their own lifestyles in which you people just like to play the victim role for your personal preference, you are not gods , you have no right to oppress other communities through your filthy clever preaching coz you are just human beings too who do not own this world, if you think you are unquestionable when you try to shape others lifestyles and expect respect for that you basically follow a cult acting like gods using the name of God, know that, and if you dont accept that you prove that you want to act like gods over others by trying to change whatever you want coz of your beliefs that others dont share with you in thus free world. So learn to be respective and decend, stop preaching against others choices your velief should be maintained by you in your personal life and if its not its a cult...
@@1233-i3f "It's not about proving if they can have a child or not" No it's not, and that wasn't my point, my point was that even biology (the science that those who wish not to believe in God cling to) proves that God intended for couples to consist of a man and a woman, not 2 men and not 2 women.
Hi Isaac, and hi everyone on their life journey right now! Praying for everyone wherever they are on that road, with or without Christ in their heart. If you have him, I pray you're going strong! If not, I pray you may find His love soon. Just wanted to point out in case no one else caught it, at 11:30 there's a mistake: You said you're reading from John 8:7, but in my Bible and online the actual verse seems to come from Romans 8:7. Everyone slips up and no one is better than the others next to them, but we can help each other wherever we can because that is one of Christ's commands as well. The mistake doesn't take away from the very powerful dialogue we got to learn from, thank God! Let's keep sharing the gospel as it was intended; in fullness, with love, and with God's guidance. May we strive to be better for Christ than who we were yesterday!
I believe there is a fine line. Don't forget that even Jesus hanged around with sinners but obviously it wasn't just with the intent of simply being there, it was with the intent of reaching them. So we cannot say we're reaching the lost if we're not even friends with them i the first place (I know one can win someone without being their friend necessarily but you get the point) But yeah, then again if your worldly friends are influencing your behaviour then it's better to cut ties or at least limit them. Like Jesus said, "If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off". Eternal life with Christ is way more precious than any friendship you can make here on earth. So yeah, there's a fine line. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give you discernment concerning which friendships to make, maintain or end. God bless!
We're not supposed to be yoked together with unbelievers. Jesus hung around unbelievers all the time, but his closest friends were his disciples and his ultimate confidant was The Father.
@@Billie_Marie_ Technically His disciples were His only friends. The biblical definition of friend is a covenant word that means everything I have belongs to you and everything you have belongs to me. So Jesus wasn't friends with sinners but He did associate with them to draw them to God.
@@Billie_Marie_ "He hung around with unbelievers all the time, but His closest friends were His disciples" This implies that Jesus was friends with unbelievers.
OT punishments had to do with the society and nation of Israel. Essentially, it’s for Israel to know how to judge and punish on earth. The degrees of sin do not have to do with relationship with God. The Bible, as a whole, is very clear that any sin separates us from God and the only remedy is Jesus.
@@TheHcjfctc Yes but there is mentions of the greater sin. And the unforgivable Sin. To lie or to murder are two very different sins with different punishments.
The comments I’m seeing are exactly why being lenient in our scripture and understanding of what the Lord wants is exactly why we should not openly hang out with people who live continuously against Gods will. They hate Jesus, they make fun of God and you, as water hearted “Christian’s”, let them. But we should be nice. Yeah, okay.
You said it in the right way: Those homosexuals have been through a lot, to accept themselves now as they are. You might also have been through a lot to get where you are with your believe. Not a person with another believe should come in your life and tell you, that you pray to the wrong god and will go to hell if you dont pray to their god. And also not you shall come in the homosexuals life and tell them that they are lost according to YOUR ideology. Everybody has his convictions and YOURS, if they are true, are not the only true. Imagine you are wrong and you convinced a lot people to the wrong path? Its still a possibility.
I really despise the "LGBTQ+" thing, to be honest. The label, "LGBT", is all-encompassing and adding more on there is just adding unnecessarily complexity that makes the community seem like a joke. Frankly, as a Christian who disagrees with their worldview (yet strives to treat them as I'd treat any other individual), I find that it's the activists and SJWs -- not the everyday gay or trans person -- that are the most infuriating because of their insistence on redefining everything. Most LGBT individuals I encounter don't seem to be that way, but the activists cause controversy where there is none. So yeah, I just say "LGBT" and I don't use the so-called "preferred pronouns". If they want to call me a hateful bigot for that, fine, but that's entirely on them because I do not hate a single one of them.
I guess it all depends on whom you hangout with. I agree somewhat as to what you are saying in the beginning of this video, but what does the Bible say about hanging around people that will not be fruitful to your life. Ephesians 5:11-13 King James Version 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. 13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 2 Corinthians 6:14-17 King James Version 14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. The word of YAH through Yeshuah is quite clear.
LGBTQ don't need to be saved anymore than straight people. All have come short of the glory of God and need Jesus for salvation. Even if LGBTQ was totally right, they would all still need the same salvation as everyone else; not because they are gay but because they are humans. If they don't buy that, they are no different than any other common unbeliever.
My only social media is Pinterest, and there are many activist accounts and I personally love debating with them, as I’ve grown to learn that you can learn so much from eachother and it also very much helps me more understand my beliefs by more understanding theres. And as I’ve learned a lot of people who disagree actually agree on a lot of other things, I’ve also seen Christians being completely awful to the lgbt community. I’ve seen Christians cussing out and slut shaming lgbtq teens and I’ve seen people of the lgbt community do the same to Christians. I’ve seen Christians and lgbt people standing up for each other, I’ve seen lgbt people who were saved and who are now wholeheartedly Christian. It’s amazing tbh
Get right with the lord Jesus Christ before it’s too late repent and put ur faith in Christ. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins and risen on the third day he’s the only way to eternal life John 14:6 John 3:36 John 3:16 Romans 10:9
How, and why was Torquemada not 'put right' with Him, or at least, stripped of his status and authority, @Alpha / ? Or is it possible, his, ah free will, outweighed that of his victims, or followers? And after all that, why should Jews, precisely, trust you.
and most ppl say that we attack anybody who is lgbt, they know nothing about Jesus' love, just talk about it they reject it 0.69 seconds after saying it ;-
So you know better what other peoples' "true identities" are, and even what "true freedom" is? Isn't that an unbelievably arrogant assumption? Also, how can flesh be hostile to God if he's the one who created it in the first place, and not just created it, but bound us to it from birth until death?
Our flesh is hostile to God because our sin separates us from Him. Regarding identities, I can't claim to know the minds of people but I do know that we are more than our impulses. It takes discipline, but by living the way Jesus called us we can find contentment in Him. I do not wish to debate you on any of this, but I do wish to peacefully discuss these things.
Amen those are some good points. And I love everyone and I wish there was more peace between LGBTQ+ community and Christians despite diff beliefs. Also when she mentioned that it feels wrong to not act on her feelings and it would be her being dishonest to her self, I couldn't help but think of how that's why Jesus told us to die to our flesh because our heart is so deceitful. Also that argument from a moral stand point doesn't make sense because then that means anytime anyone has any desire or feeling that they should act on it to avoid being "dishonest with themselves" and they should have the right to the "freedom" to be who they feel like they are without judgement. But with that logic than even someone who has thoughts of pedo****** could justify their actions by just saying "well that's just who I am and I shouldn't have to suppress myself" Not trying to put ped******* and same sex attraction on the same level but just making a point that that logic doesn't hold up and we cannot just trust our feelings.
Why does it matter which sins you commit if Jesus has absolved all believers of them? Why not exist from the flesh during our time here with faith that we will be saved anyways?
We are called to walk in the Spirit and NOT the flesh because it leaves us bound to sin. Galatians 5:16-18. You don't get saved at some later date. You do when you make Jesus Lord of your life and that means turning away from sin. He can't stand it to the point He died to save us from it. The Holy Spirit that comes into you when you are born again (giving your life to Christ) gives you the power to resist sin and if you do fall, repent and let God continue to lead you. It's not ok to keep sinning simply because God is forgiving. He won't have it.
To say "I can engage in sinful behavior cause I'm saved anyway" is very dangerous way of thinking. You are not really a follower of Christ if you think like that. If you commit sin you have to repent.
It's not the homosexuality is a greater sin. It is the fact that it is attempting to rearrange the example of marriage given in the church. God made a covenant with us and Jesus and His bride, the church, are the representation of that. Marriage between a husband and his wife is a blessing from God that represents that covenant between Christ and the church. Misrepresenting that covenant is really blasphemous. I don't believe that all who engage in it understand this though. I believe that if they grew in a relationship with God and learned about this most of them would realize the error and change. I have to say as well that sexual immorality in general is a huge issue with a lot of people. Lustul pleasures, etc. We all give up our fleshly desires. Galatians chapter five tells us that those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to His cross and crucified them there. Meaning, there is a death to self that every single Christian undergoes. Having fleshly desires whether it be a man lusting after a woman or man lusting after a man is the same. The time it becomes blasphemous is when man and man or woman and woman enter into the covenant of marriage.
Why would you preach against them like gods who can banish it from society coz you are gods??? See you fellowmen just listen to thses big preachers who teach you to use your belief against others in THEIR LIVES, so stop play the victim and respect other's choices stop acting like homophobic believers that prove tgat ypu deserve to be hated back. Even you wont want christianity to be ended completely,so you are not gods of this world respect others, stop making videos while you are the ones doing that intention to banish them thingy.
@@1233-i3f hi sorry late reply I don't listen to anyone tell me what to do or how to act I have every right just like you to ask a question but what I notice in life everyone has free will except true believers in Christ Christianity is not what I believe in I believe and serve Jesus in regards to people doing and having what ever relationship they want that's up to them just the same as me I have the right to ask or say what I want the only difference is I get into more trouble than a person practicing homsexuallity coz he or she can put videos on RUclips treating to come after our children and nothing gets done about ha.
@@rob7726 lol those vids are mostly jokes which still exist because of religious suppressions against gays first, so if you talk against a person or people about themselves, they would respond.(still then they are jokes/even if they shout saying they would get children, they are either just soo hurt by the dominant homophobics that they are just not polite but not really violent/gays or straights can contain some bad people too in which we shouldnt blame the community. Silence maybe good to build oneself But not when others suppress you. So bad popular things about gays are often popularise by homophobics and not coz gays do bad things to be popular in that way,like you may go to your bf/gf house and your lil brother tell your mom you had sex though you didnt if you accept you go to the house she will focus on the sex, the hate is sort of like that non gay prople popularise definitions they want. Those gays vids you mentioned are jokrs while these types of vids are seriously preaching towards neutral people that can make them homophobics in the world where gays are still oppressed. Even preachers know those are jokes so they wont make vids about that+ they made those in return of homophobic oppresdions first. Then consider thses types of vids, they are not jokes, they are either gays talking about their lives or gays being flippant towards preachers coz the preachers cleverly pushed them to act that way either through their presence or they know that history till now have been creating enough pain to lgbtq people to let them speak hatefully to any new preachers who still at last always talk about homisexuality in a way that mislead others to be oppressive to gays. I hope you just wont hate or create problems for gays either by yourself or through supporting homophobics who may be religious or not in like ihis cases(honestly just commenting about others gay life with words that tell you are on the religious homophobics side is actually very vulnerable for gay's rigjts and peace
@@ddrse Yes, he didnt create the homosexuality in Roman's 1:24-32 it talks very clearly about Gods wrath against sinful humanity. (Not saying in a mean way) but read the words and you will see It is a No from God.im in the NIV version
Replace homosexuality with any other sin. If your response changes based on the content of the sin then you need to reconnect with the Lord and remember what He told us to do.
5:45 slightly extreme view, but I think that is a sin. One who has lusted after another has committed adultery. It is something someone should ask forgiveness for, and repent from. But, is it as bad of a sin as doing the act in which they feel temped? I suppose not.
The disciples came to Jesus with their concern that he had offended the pharisees. Jesus answered, Every plant my heavenly father has not planted shall be plucked up by the roots. Leave them alone for they are blind, leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind they both fall into the ditch. Peace!
You make it sound easy, but it's not so easy to have a conversation with lgbtq members. I've tried many times but they won't listen and will insult you instead.
@@Maksie0 yea these people try to sound desend first but sill same ending, plus hisyory has done all preachers keep preaching against them and those people know what a new preacher may say so they are not polite for that insight, but sadly these people like to film those specific obes and post it with the worst titles, they are the true brainwashers
@@orangeblossom9279"talking to GAYS" since it's gonna be about their sexuality, even just talking about other religious stuffs you people saying" talking to GAYS" not about their sexuality directly means you telling them you are christians to tell them something with you mentioning" talking to Gays" is obvious that the conclusion you make is gonna be about the wrongs in their choices. So they just don't wanna waste their time plus who speaks hatefully first doesn't represent everyone else yet you people always mention them ina way that people can see everyone like them to be hateful. Plus be kidnapped by a veiled person,tortured,abused and see someone else approaching you with familiar dress will make you afraid(in this case christians have hurt the mentality of gays and the gays exist on,meeting other christians and if those christians say" I am a christian" to gays that means they are gonna talk against them even in clever and nice ways but the intention us the same. Before saying nothing near them they won't know you are christians so obviously you give them the clue to those gays whom christians have oppressed that ypu may sound decend but intentionally speaking to them when they know you are christian is just "no". Most gays hear every thing,being oppressed by religious and homophobic people will probably talk against you first but don't thell me you mean you were gonna say something like" they won't help me when I ask them to help me with my bags" or something like that coz they are not psychics who know you are christians coz obviously I think you are talking about religion and them coz them knowing they are gays will obviously know you are gonna talk against them if you approach them with religious stuffs since if you really don't speak about you being religious first, like everybody else they won't know you are christians. The most impactful problem of lgbtq+ community with religion is about religious peple oppressing them or pushing them as if they are gods and not wanting to stop religions for no reason,if you are gpnna point out this gay individual here and there say that, that is not what lgbtq people do but sone individuals as tgeir wills so dont try to generalise that. You people never accept you act like gods yet then why are you trying so hard to indoctrinate others and oppress gays,aethist,etc who just exist as them and start responding your hates since you create for them. That's very godly act of judgement by christians since the main visible problem is like I said gays in the oppression of religious people. No lgbtq community or others as a group in general have big protest saying"christianity should be ended or something like that". Eben then they talj abput religious homophobia after the homophobia being pervading around the world not before anything happens.
@@orangeblossom9279 plus even not about religion if someone knows a person is selling things around and then he approaches him,he can deny or walk away that's a basic human right. Your comment was as if they are your salves who should not refuse to listen about what they know you are gonna talk about since even just from this comment you make sure it's gonna be about them or you are not gonna say to a gay or anyone"I am a christian, so, "HELP ME WITH MY BAGS"
I would say that rather than talking about what they're doing wrong or what they believe we should start with Jesus, with his blood. If they raise questions about their lifestyle we can tell them the truth that Jesus has better things for them but one way we are to rely on the spirit is by not trying to finesse our way into people's hearts. Now maybe there are those who are called to lifelong celibacy from whom God has taken away the desire for women but it is only this hypersexualized world that says they have to find someone to sleep with. This is actually a great blasphemy saying that God cannot satisfy their souls but rather that he has created something evil (homosexual desire) merely to torment them. I do think theres various other spiritual needs that satan also twists toward homosexuality but a key thing to understand is that sex is not vital to life, only Christ. Paul said that marriage was no sin but it would he better if all were just as he was (celibate) so we see that while God uses marriage to work mightily in the lives of his children (to help us understand his heart) he also gives great grace for those who wish to fellowship solely with him (at that level).
0:30 I think as long as you are confident in your faith, that is more than fine. Remember Jesus dined with prostitutes and tax collectors. Jesus went into the world and made worldly relationships with people, so that he may give them the truth. I honestly make something of an effort to be in the world a bit, not of the world, but I will go to VR parties, and talk to non-Christians all the time. My closest friends are Christian, of course, but I have made plenty of non-Christian friends too.
The bible is quite explicit that there are worse sins than others. This is not something you can really argue against unless you are saying that Jesus was lying. The bible also tells us that there will be a hierarchy in Heaven as well. Teaching that all sins carry the same weight is unbiblical and you should be wary of people who do and say this. Consider the fact that Jesus even specifically states that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit carries the weight of eternal sin on us. This is serious. If there was no hierarchy of sin seriousness, there is no way He would have said something like this.
I have a basic motto; "Live like a Christian/Muslim/Atheist/Hindu/Jew, vote like an American." When you bring the church into the ballot box, you're crossing a line that should not be crossed. That's called a Theocracy. We fight wars about that.
@@leviberg2377 But how do you decide when it becomes a “governmental sword”? Let’s say your religion condemns gay marriage, isn’t it wielding a governmental sword to vote for the guy who will uphold “traditional marriage”?
@@BionicLatino The question you have to ask yourself is what is he meaning when he says "uphold"? If he means that's what he supports, then no, that is not wielding a governmental sword. Now, if that's what he supports and then tries to pass laws in order to make that the only option, that's wielding a governmental sword. Just because someone doesn't agree with a practice doesn't mean they'll necessarily remove the practice. Trump was the president for 4 years, and regardless of what the LGBTQ+ community says, he never took away their rights. Hitler, on the other hand...you get the point.
@@Maksie0 Hello. I have a genuine question. It's obvious (from your many comments on this channel) that you're a radical atheist. But then... as an atheist, is it not the best thing to do to just stop watching channels like this altogether? You're not hateful, from what I've observed. But if I were an atheist, I wouldn't just follow every post and every comment on Christian channels. I'd give myself a “breather”. I guess I'm just trying to ask, “Why?” Why follow these videos and comments and everything when it's pretty obvious you don't like it. I hope you don't perceive this as an attack. I'm genuinely curious.
@@anastasiaifinedo7780 The main reason is that I abhor Christianity and other religions' attitude towards LGBTQ+ people. I think that attitude is causing a lot of very real harm. And so I want to change any minds I can. And if I can't change them, I want to at least interrupt the echo chamber to let them know that we're still here, and we're not going anywhere.
.... If Christ's atonement is infinite... How can there be more or less "judgement" depending on the sin? My friend, all sin is equal. Looking at a woman with lust is the same as adultery. Hate = murder. Jesus was very clear. Please be careful when you're in a position of authority here on YT.

ikr
I'm sorry you don't what loving means. Good luck out there.
Eh me too!
My problem is that I'm not a sensitive guy. I'm not the kind of guy to say "I love you and I care about your feelings". Even though that may be true, that's just not how I communicate. I'm a very practical and stoic kind of person. So I often come across as not caring if someone already has that opinion of me.
That’s perfectly fine, I think trying to make everyone respond the exact same regardless of personality differences is infeasible and impractical.
Debates shouldn’t be a war to see who is right, but should be a trade or exchange of ideas that in the end make both participants more intelligent.
If you’re debating over a sensitive topic, it’s important to try to understand the other person’s perspective (their feelings, thoughts, and motives).
This means that instead of retorting whenever you have more evidence than the other person, you should ask them “How did you get to that conclusion?”
If they bring up a point that seems ridiculous or is easily refuted, don’t scoff at them but genuinely ask them more questions.
If they scoff or ridicule you, try to keep your calm and remind them that this is a discussion, not an argument.
I hope this reply doesn’t seem condescending or as if I’m telling you what to do, I’m just trying to tell you some things that work for me, you can do whatever you want.
You don’t have to be soft, comforting, or sensitive in order to debate these topics, you just have to be understanding.
Like the most men are and that's fine. Love is shown by deeds not words. However, some people need words for encouragement, that's also fine.
I have a similar issue. I know what's right, but I'm not always empathetic to other people, so they see me as harsh, and don't listen.
Good, deeds, not words, including INACTION, too, perhaps - even for a deity? Or a Son, who values, justice.
@@chrissonofpear1384 Have in mind 3 things:
1) he granted us free will. Yes he is very very very disappointed how we use it and produce injustice, but he endures it patiently, for years and centuries and millenniums...
2) He will put an end to it. Then it will matter how we used this free will he gave us
3) (This is subjective, but) I've had lot of experiences where I encountered his grace and his turning things around for well, despite the odds.
Honestly following Jesus is like Addicts Anonymous but is instead a support group for sinners.
We are not better because we are in the group but we are trying to do/be better we will fall off the wagon we will do wrong but we will get back on the wagon which is the Bible and try again. We are all in the same boat those in Jesus have a better seat doesn't make them better just blessed.

I can’t imagine how this conversation would have played out if lgbt had the same convo with Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Mormons, or even Jewish people.
They probably would have kissed up to the muslims and buddhists as people tend to do that as I’ve seen, and would have torn the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of LDS apart. People tend to not like us, even other Christians. The Jews though…. That’s a mixed bag. If they’re secular jews they’d be buddy buddy. I know some jews that identify as nonbinary and I’m I’m willing to bet they’re secular to a degree. But they’d probably be staring daggers at orthodox jews. This is just my opinion on things, though. Any time I try to argue my beliefs with them, even other members of The Church that identify as queer, I get passive aggressively shot down or even cry bullied. They’re masters at cry bullying.
Religious people kill those whom they holy book says to kill. That's why religious people are dangerous and anathema to humanity
I can. Muslims would have maybe been a little more stern than these Christians, but they would have been kind. Buddhist would have been completely accepting. There is no sutra against homosexuality in Buddhism. I don’t think there is any sutra in Hinduism either. Jewish people, just like Muslims and Christians, it depends on the particular community. Some have no problems with it. Some are adamantly opposed to it being present in public.
And Mormon’s? Well those are the sweetest Christians I’ve ever met. I think they may have said the same sort of things these Christians said. The only difference is that they don’t have a belief in an eternal fiery torture. They have a kinder religion in that regard.
@@thatdudekyle4509 Mormons are not Christians.
You said it best when you said "Hey I disagree with you but I still love you..." with the minor adjustment, instead of "I still want to help and minister to you", that's a turn off, and we rather need to use the simple language of the world, like "I still want to be your friend and share my views with you honestly". Paul says "To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some." (1 Cor 9:20-22)

And everyone goes the trouble of sinning.hence why he brought us the holy spirit in us to ask for his wisdom to have a relationship with him. To hear his voice in our hearts. And once we are forgiven and ask for forgiveness. We have him by our side to right our ways to change every aspect of our lives.

When a person has a tendency to do something that is considered sinful, a way out would be confession. You're still being honest with yourself while giving yourself the freedom to not do it. You can confess to yourself but I rather confess to God. Sometimes I even confess to my sibling or to my wife who are more understanding than other people.

it does say in the Bible to confess to God & (I forget where it says) the Bible encourages confession among peers who are supportive of you to help stay accountable so confessing to your loved ones is perfectly natural & sometimes God works through His followers to help
What I’ve been learning recently is that quoting the Bible to people who don’t believe in the Bible or even God is usually not that helpful
Because it doesn't matter to us. We have no interests in christian scriptures and see them as irrelevant due to it not being our base of belief.
I am an atheist. I don't care what the bible says about what things to do and what not to do because in my eyes it is nothing but a fantasy book people use to get money and/or gain controll over people. And although I see no use in religion, I don't have anything against people who choose to believe and follow a religion.
My problem is only with the people who use their religion to judge others and/or use it as an excuse to judge, harrass or even harm other people on the name of what they call "god".
Because in the end, believing something is not the same as knowing something.
i love the direction you took with this! keep it up :)
Thank you!
What’s hard to remember is that no sin is “greater” than another. They all separate us from god. Love your stuff. Could you maybe address abortion when it comes to rape or a situation where the mother could be killed? I always have a hard time staying on gods path when talking to others about this ;)
Jaden Fillenberg the best person to watch on this issue in my opinion is Jeff Durbin of Apologia studios, but the stances I have heard is that the child should not be killed because of the fathers crime in the case of rape and then for safety of the mother it’s not abortion it’s saving someone’s life( mostly in the case where both the baby and the mother will both die either way). But those make up at most 3% of abortions so it’s not really the main objection and it shouldn’t be where the conversation you have is confined to. :)
The only good argument I have seen for if the women is r@ped is the baby shouldn't have to pay for the fathers actions
Off topic, but just make sure you capitalized the G in God when you talk about the God of the holy trinity.
Isnt blaspheming the Holy Spirit a great sin because it is unforgivable?
Sorry to break it to you but not all sins are equal
You either stand with God or you stand with the world. Theres no reason for debate.
Without loving discussion you are writing people off and that is born of self-righteousness.

I fully disagree with this whole statement , they Bible clearly says to tell people , the Bible actually shows a greta picture of Jesus doing this with the Pharisees and bringing them knowledge of Gods word and their sin and they chose not to follow on the other hand nicodemus was a Pharisee and he chose to follow Jesus , see we have to tell people

Jesus is the holy light of righteousness in this dark foreboding world. Hallelujah!
This helped me in my own sins.

You make some good points. Being slow to speak and quick to listen is definitely a wise choice for these conversations.
Also "raygs". No one would know if you were Canadian if not for the raygs 😆
I appreciate your sensitivity and genuine understanding of where people are coming from, where they are in life. That's something that is not seen often enough in the Christian community. Quick note though, the word "minister" comes across as demeaning and "holier-than-thou." As a former Christian I understand what it means to a Christian, but to everyone else it is just an instant turn off. Also, I'm glad you didn't mention this, but many Christians feel the need to offer to pray for their friends stuck in "worldly" lifestyles. This also comes across as demeaning and "holier-than-thou" despite the good intentions I understand are behind it. My suggestion would be simply pray for them in silence.
You don't pray for people in silence, you can pray for them and not tell them about it, but it is always better to ask to pray for them, some people actually require physical contact during prayer.
I don't know why or how "minister" can be seen as holier than thou when it literally means to serve or a servant.
@@lilchristuten7568 If prayer works, why does the recipient need to know about it?
@@Maksie0
Because many times prayer only works if what you pray matches what the person being prayed for believes so if you pray for someone then it is better that they know what you are praying so that what they believe matches what you believe; for instance you can pray for someone to be healed of a disease but if they don't believe that they will be healed and in that belief they constantly speak against their healing then your prayer is pointless.
For others as I said physical contact is needed. In fact for unbelievers it is necessary because the bible says that it is necessary. It is necessary because unbelievers don't have the Holy Ghost within them so His power can't work in them unless someone who has the Holy Ghost transfers His power to them via touch and speech.
@@lilchristuten7568 Seems weird for the power of an almighty god to be that limited.
@@Maksie0
The power of God is limited by faith because that is the way God intended it to be, the more faith a person has, the more accessible His power is to them.
I am Christian and I still struggle with finding my identity in my flesh.
You shouldn't be finding your identity in your flesh. Your identity is in Christ and who you are to him.
@@Skwiddd90 I don't think that's what he meant. I think he meant he's a Christian and wants to live for God, but still struggles trying to put his identity into his flesh instead of jesus. Atleast that's what I took from what he said.💗
I get it, I used to feel like that too. I was at best, a lukewarm Christian. I don't remember the turning point but I do know God opened my eyes and starting renewing my mind. Now I'm growing I'm the Word and self-discipline daily.
First thing to note is that it's a relationship you have with Christ, not a religion. You don't obey Him to be accepted; you obey Him _because_ you're accepted. You're not working to earn anything; God has freely given it to you. The first commenter said it well, your identity is found in Christ😊
Secondly, you have to build a relationship with God. Spiritual growth is key. He longs to be near you but won't force you into His presence. When I was lukewarm, I never really studied the Word or prayed. Best I did was read a verse off of an app for 5 minutes every day or prayed before I ate or slept. I _knew_ what I had to do but I just wasn't doing it and I was making excuses like "God understands my busy schedule-" like no.
Let's say you had a crush on someone and wanted to get to know them better, what's the best way to do that? Spend time with them! If you literally ignore that person every day, nothing shows you have any affection for them.
It's similar to God. Spend time with Him through:
1. Prayer
2. Reading & studying the Word
3. Fasting
Prayer is simply talking to God, you can do this throughout your day about anything and everything. Study the Word (don't just read) in depth. Any student knows you can't understand a subject by just *reading* a textbook about it 5 minutes every day yet we often think we can understand the Creator of the universe by simply *reading* about Him for 5 minutes (although no one can understand God 100%). Let the Holy Spirit lead you into all truth. Fasting is abstaining from something that takes up a lot of your time and spending that time with God instead. Contrary to popular belief, it's not necessarily food, it can be social media for instance.
I can assure you that if you abide in Jesus, you'll have no problem with your identity. I can promise you that. I used to hate the way I looked, sounded and thought I was inferior. Now I know I'm much more precious than I ever though because my name is written in the hand of Christ. It's not magic, it's the transformative power of the gospel.
God bless you!
Isn't blaspheming the Holy Spirit the worst sin?
Yeahhh it’s considered to be the unforgivable sin right?
It's rejection of repenting. It's when the holy spirit tells you to repent and gives you a bad conscience on what you are doing and you decide to harden you heart until you don't repent at all.
No. Context was concerning the hearts of the Pharisees being hard and unmoved in their belief that there was not a Holy Spirit. The fact that they blasphemed the Holy Spirit by not recognizing Him as part of the Godhead was the issue and because of their unchanging belief they were not going to be forgiven, even with all of their religious checkoffs concerning their tight adherence to the law that Jesus came to fulfill and did fulfill. It was never a "worst sin". All sin puts a divide between God and humankind and demands a price of judgement. Jesus came to satisfy the penalty for all sins and the good news of the gospel is that when we enter into relationship with Jesus, the Holy Spirit indwells us and our hearts are changed. The Pharisees didn't want that change but it's available to all.
fxck the holy spirit
degree of punishment, but no degree to sin. I've always been confused about this subject, but that's a very good point, all sin is the same and no sin is worse then the other but one sin can have a different punishment and impact.
Chirst sats there is an unforgivable sin though...
For one to be unforgivable, surely this must mean it is worse right?
@@marvalice3455 the unforgivable sin is the sin of rejecting God. Not that it’s worse. But that sin causes your path to go to the path of hełł, it’s not that it’s worse, it’s that you can never be forgiven because you never asked for it. It’s like hardening your own heart to God. Sometimes there’s a way back. And sometime your don’t allow yourself to go back.

We can love because God first loved us. Read that Corinthians 13 passage, it is in fact practical. Essentially we are to show love by imitating Jesus Christ, the author of love. Being in tune with the Holy Spirit, praying honestly and fervently, including for our enemies. Forgiving also. Patient. Kind. Giving. Faithful. Bold yet humble. Trustworthy. Respectful yet honest.
Care taking. Listening. Telling the Truth. All things JC was and is, especially seen in the new testament gospels (1st four books). It is the sweetest story ever. Hope that helps.

I am a convert out of Lgbtq. Jesus has more for us and this is a topic that needs to be understood & addressed better in the Church! The bible condems even a Hint of sexual immorality...because it seperates us from our true Creator & Partner. Our real identity can be found through Jesus.
Also, I apologize to all of the Lgbtq community that have not seen or felt this Love. But I assure you, NO ONE can ever love you or fill you like God can. So trust & believe because it will transform your soul and you will have the power through the Spirit to overcome and be reconciled to the one holy, trustworthy, loving, beautiful God. ♡

It is nice to meet you (as much as we can via social media)
If you would like to share your view, I'd be happy to listen
@@aliciab92989 My view is simple. Nobody chooses what people they're attracted to. Some people are straight, some are bi, some are gay, etc. Having these attractions is natural. And pursuing relationships with the people you're attracted to, as long as it's done with consent and respect, causes no harm. So there's no rational reason to oppose it.
@@Maksie0 Good morning,
I would agree that it is natural in the sense that it is not chosen. And that it can be done in consent, respect, etc.
But what if I told you God created us and allowed seperation in order for the ultimate love story? That there is hope for the life to come (ie spiritual). That humans have a deeper part, spirits. And that Jesus Christ (God's human form) was sent in perfect love to redeem us from everything in this physical world, not just sexuality. That all sin seperates us from God's love because God is holy, perfect. So Jesus came as an atonement for that. A redemption of God's people. You would not want any part of that?
@@aliciab92989 I would not believe you.

And why create an angel with delusional, suicidal pride, to sway any others? And WE DO NOT HAVE equal free will - not since Eden, and not since 1 Corinthians 2:14, or 2 Timothy 1, either. And if He was all knowing, why does He need to have BLOOD put on doors, to know WHICH houses to nuke, in Egypt, in Passover - or to send angels to learn who was travelling with Balaam, in Numbers 22? And why does Moses, a human, need to calm Him down, in Numbers 14:32 (thereabouts) after a tantrum?
Also, did He KNOW the mess 1 Corinthians 10 and Matthew 27:25, and Leviticus 25, would cause, or not? More of a mess, than one man gathering sticks on Sabbath apparently ever caused, in Numbers 15, which we KNOW got the very personal touch, from Him?

Hi Isaac, you have a very calvinist approach towards your interpretation of Christianity, and sometimes I feel like you could improve your content by opening up a bit to other traditions or at least acknowledging them and teach your audience about them 😊
An example in this video is that you are being totally dismissive of natural theology, especially as expressed in Romans 2:14-15, which does mention that humans "without the law" have a notion of right and wrong, as written by God on their heart, which you didn't even mention and even contradicted when dealing with the blue haired lady answers.
Otherwise, although I sometimes disagree with your theology, you seem to be a dedicated, honest and uncompromising Christian, and this in itself is awesome 💪
I've never heard any Calvinist points. There are five. Do you know them?...
@@mramirez5239 Are you talking about the 5 solae ? Because if so, that's not exclusively from Calvin, it's common to the whole Reformed tradition (Lutherans, Zwiglists etc)
But why are homosexual desires more sinful than heterosexual desires? Also we can interpret certain passages keeping in mind the differences between the historical context and the current context. For example some passages saying slaves should obey their masters. So why cant we apply the same interpretation to the passages about homosexuality?
If by "desires" you mean sexual lusts and acts, the reason is because God made woman for man and deviation from that is called abominable by God.
I'm not sure what interpretation you are talking about, but the scriptures telling slaves to be obedient to their masters aren't just talking about people who are owned by other people. Earlier in those passages it tells children to be obedient to their parents and one of them tells a wife to submit to her husband. The point of the passages is telling believers to submit to and obey those who the lord has allowed to be placed over you, this includes your boss on the job and your pastor at your Church (particularly your pastor because they are the person who minister God's word to you) as though you are submitting to and obeying God because He has placed them in their positions concerning you. Of course there are times when you may need to disobey them but those times are to be discerned using the law of the Spirit.
@@lilchristuten7568 but since no one can prove it for others the problem is you people should stop preaching against them your belief is what you should follow not by them if you cant keep it and use that way in kinda forcing or acting like gods to banish other communities your religions are just cult as long as you act like that.

Hi Isaac, and hi everyone on their life journey right now! Praying for everyone wherever they are on that road, with or without Christ in their heart. If you have him, I pray you're going strong! If not, I pray you may find His love soon. Just wanted to point out in case no one else caught it, at 11:30 there's a mistake:
You said you're reading from John 8:7, but in my Bible and online the actual verse seems to come from Romans 8:7. Everyone slips up and no one is better than the others next to them, but we can help each other wherever we can because that is one of Christ's commands as well. The mistake doesn't take away from the very powerful dialogue we got to learn from, thank God! Let's keep sharing the gospel as it was intended; in fullness, with love, and with God's guidance. May we strive to be better for Christ than who we were yesterday!
1:22 hasn't it been said that believers should not come together with unbelievers?
I believe there is a fine line.
Don't forget that even Jesus hanged around with sinners but obviously it wasn't just with the intent of simply being there, it was with the intent of reaching them. So we cannot say we're reaching the lost if we're not even friends with them i the first place (I know one can win someone without being their friend necessarily but you get the point)
But yeah, then again if your worldly friends are influencing your behaviour then it's better to cut ties or at least limit them. Like Jesus said, "If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off". Eternal life with Christ is way more precious than any friendship you can make here on earth.
So yeah, there's a fine line. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give you discernment concerning which friendships to make, maintain or end. God bless!
We're not supposed to be yoked together with unbelievers. Jesus hung around unbelievers all the time, but his closest friends were his disciples and his ultimate confidant was The Father.

Technically His disciples were His only friends. The biblical definition of friend is a covenant word that means everything I have belongs to you and everything you have belongs to me. So Jesus wasn't friends with sinners but He did associate with them to draw them to God.

Not a person with another believe should come in your life and tell you, that you pray to the wrong god and will go to hell if you dont pray to their god.
And also not you shall come in the homosexuals life and tell them that they are lost according to YOUR ideology.

I really despise the "LGBTQ+" thing, to be honest. The label, "LGBT", is all-encompassing and adding more on there is just adding unnecessarily complexity that makes the community seem like a joke. Frankly, as a Christian who disagrees with their worldview (yet strives to treat them as I'd treat any other individual), I find that it's the activists and SJWs -- not the everyday gay or trans person -- that are the most infuriating because of their insistence on redefining everything. Most LGBT individuals I encounter don't seem to be that way, but the activists cause controversy where there is none.
So yeah, I just say "LGBT" and I don't use the so-called "preferred pronouns". If they want to call me a hateful bigot for that, fine, but that's entirely on them because I do not hate a single one of them.

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
The word of YAH through Yeshuah is quite clear.
There is a balance.
How they can get convicted, when you don't show them that they are in danger. Without hate, but also not in a hippie method.
It isn't just a disagreement, like they think The Last Jedi was a good movie. They are in open rebellion against God, and demanding affirmation.
I feel like this guy is from Minnesota
He lives in Canada
But I agree with you.
You should attend one of these Videos. I think you could really change some peoples hearts to Jesus ❤
LGBTQ don't need to be saved anymore than straight people. All have come short of the glory of God and need Jesus for salvation. Even if LGBTQ was totally right, they would all still need the same salvation as everyone else; not because they are gay but because they are humans. If they don't buy that, they are no different than any other common unbeliever.
what are you trying to say? That we're *all* sinners or that lgbt aren't sinners?
@@victoriabrownwell4301 He's trying to say that all humans are sinners thus they need to be saved by Jesus.
My only social media is Pinterest, and there are many activist accounts and I personally love debating with them, as I’ve grown to learn that you can learn so much from eachother and it also very much helps me more understand my beliefs by more understanding theres. And as I’ve learned a lot of people who disagree actually agree on a lot of other things, I’ve also seen Christians being completely awful to the lgbt community. I’ve seen Christians cussing out and slut shaming lgbtq teens and I’ve seen people of the lgbt community do the same to Christians. I’ve seen Christians and lgbt people standing up for each other, I’ve seen lgbt people who were saved and who are now wholeheartedly Christian. It’s amazing tbh
Jesus might say to others that this does not apply to.
What does this have to do with you?
Do you not have your own Sins?
😇
Get right with the lord Jesus Christ before it’s too late repent and put ur faith in Christ. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins and risen on the third day he’s the only way to eternal life John 14:6 John 3:36 John 3:16 Romans 10:9
How, and why was Torquemada not 'put right' with Him, or at least, stripped of his status and authority, @Alpha / ? Or is it possible, his, ah free will, outweighed that of his victims, or followers?
And after all that, why should Jews, precisely, trust you.
Truthfully the difference between me and the next sinner is Jesus. Not me. I’ve learned this.
11:30 actually Romans
and most ppl say that we attack anybody who is lgbt, they know nothing about Jesus' love, just talk about it they reject it 0.69 seconds after saying it ;-
So you know better what other peoples' "true identities" are, and even what "true freedom" is? Isn't that an unbelievably arrogant assumption? Also, how can flesh be hostile to God if he's the one who created it in the first place, and not just created it, but bound us to it from birth until death?
Our flesh is hostile to God because our sin separates us from Him.
Regarding identities, I can't claim to know the minds of people but I do know that we are more than our impulses. It takes discipline, but by living the way Jesus called us we can find contentment in Him.
I do not wish to debate you on any of this, but I do wish to peacefully discuss these things.
Amen those are some good points. And I love everyone and I wish there was more peace between LGBTQ+ community and Christians despite diff beliefs. Also when she mentioned that it feels wrong to not act on her feelings and it would be her being dishonest to her self, I couldn't help but think of how that's why Jesus told us to die to our flesh because our heart is so deceitful. Also that argument from a moral stand point doesn't make sense because then that means anytime anyone has any desire or feeling that they should act on it to avoid being "dishonest with themselves" and they should have the right to the "freedom" to be who they feel like they are without judgement. But with that logic than even someone who has thoughts of pedo****** could justify their actions by just saying "well that's just who I am and I shouldn't have to suppress myself" Not trying to put ped******* and same sex attraction on the same level but just making a point that that logic doesn't hold up and we cannot just trust our feelings.
Why does it matter which sins you commit if Jesus has absolved all believers of them? Why not exist from the flesh during our time here with faith that we will be saved anyways?
Because you cannot be forgiven of something you don't regret.
We are called to walk in the Spirit and NOT the flesh because it leaves us bound to sin. Galatians 5:16-18. You don't get saved at some later date. You do when you make Jesus Lord of your life and that means turning away from sin. He can't stand it to the point He died to save us from it. The Holy Spirit that comes into you when you are born again (giving your life to Christ) gives you the power to resist sin and if you do fall, repent and let God continue to lead you. It's not ok to keep sinning simply because God is forgiving. He won't have it.
To say "I can engage in sinful behavior cause I'm saved anyway" is very dangerous way of thinking. You are not really a follower of Christ if you think like that. If you commit sin you have to repent.
Our good deeds are filthy rags to God!!! Omg that's brilliant
It's not the homosexuality is a greater sin. It is the fact that it is attempting to rearrange the example of marriage given in the church. God made a covenant with us and Jesus and His bride, the church, are the representation of that. Marriage between a husband and his wife is a blessing from God that represents that covenant between Christ and the church. Misrepresenting that covenant is really blasphemous. I don't believe that all who engage in it understand this though. I believe that if they grew in a relationship with God and learned about this most of them would realize the error and change.
I have to say as well that sexual immorality in general is a huge issue with a lot of people. Lustul pleasures, etc. We all give up our fleshly desires. Galatians chapter five tells us that those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to His cross and crucified them there. Meaning, there is a death to self that every single Christian undergoes. Having fleshly desires whether it be a man lusting after a woman or man lusting after a man is the same. The time it becomes blasphemous is when man and man or woman and woman enter into the covenant of marriage.
What is your views biblically on homsexuallity should we state the truth or should we just be nice and friendly just asking.
Why would you preach against them like gods who can banish it from society coz you are gods??? See you fellowmen just listen to thses big preachers who teach you to use your belief against others in THEIR LIVES, so stop play the victim and respect other's choices stop acting like homophobic believers that prove tgat ypu deserve to be hated back. Even you wont want christianity to be ended completely,so you are not gods of this world respect others, stop making videos while you are the ones doing that intention to banish them thingy.
"Should we state the truth" You sound soo indoctrinated too, waiting to have permission from this preachers to be not respectful towards others..
@@1233-i3f hi sorry late reply I don't listen to anyone tell me what to do or how to act I have every right just like you to ask a question but what I notice in life everyone has free will except true believers in Christ Christianity is not what I believe in I believe and serve Jesus in regards to people doing and having what ever relationship they want that's up to them just the same as me I have the right to ask or say what I want the only difference is I get into more trouble than a person practicing homsexuallity coz he or she can put videos on RUclips treating to come after our children and nothing gets done about ha.
@@rob7726 lol those vids are mostly jokes which still exist because of religious suppressions against gays first, so if you talk against a person or people about themselves, they would respond.(still then they are jokes/even if they shout saying they would get children, they are either just soo hurt by the dominant homophobics that they are just not polite but not really violent/gays or straights can contain some bad people too in which we shouldnt blame the community.
Silence maybe good to build oneself
But not when others suppress you.
So bad popular things about gays are often popularise by homophobics and not coz gays do bad things to be popular in that way,like you may go to your bf/gf house and your lil brother tell your mom you had sex though you didnt if you accept you go to the house she will focus on the sex, the hate is sort of like that non gay prople popularise definitions they want.
Those gays vids you mentioned are jokrs while these types of vids are seriously preaching towards neutral people that can make them homophobics in the world where gays are still oppressed.
Even preachers know those are jokes so they wont make vids about that+ they made those in return of homophobic oppresdions first.
Then consider thses types of vids, they are not jokes, they are either gays talking about their lives or gays being flippant towards preachers coz the preachers cleverly pushed them to act that way either through their presence or they know that history till now have been creating enough pain to lgbtq people to let them speak hatefully to any new preachers who still at last always talk about homisexuality in a way that mislead others to be oppressive to gays.
I hope you just wont hate or create problems for gays either by yourself or through supporting homophobics who may be religious or not in like ihis cases(honestly just commenting about others gay life with words that tell you are on the religious homophobics side is actually very vulnerable for gay's rigjts and peace
@@1233-i3f do you believe people have the right to say what they like even for preachers
You can be LGBT and Christian
We all have our crosses to bear. It's not our authority to judge others, we are commanded to love and shelter each other.
Where is that in the bible.
@@ddrse You didn't answer my question?
@@peppermintchapstick7177 God has shown them to you. That's why you're without excuse
@@ddrse Yes, he didnt create the homosexuality in Roman's 1:24-32 it talks very clearly about Gods wrath against sinful humanity. (Not saying in a mean way) but read the words and you will see It is a No from God.im in the NIV version
Jesus loves you
Amen
Replace homosexuality with any other sin. If your response changes based on the content of the sin then you need to reconnect with the Lord and remember what He told us to do.
news the Lord Jesus is coming soon accept him as your Lord and savior accept the free gift of God what an amazing news...,..........
Source?
5:45 slightly extreme view, but I think that is a sin. One who has lusted after another has committed adultery. It is something someone should ask forgiveness for, and repent from. But, is it as bad of a sin as doing the act in which they feel temped? I suppose not.
The disciples came to Jesus with their concern that he had offended the pharisees. Jesus answered, Every plant my heavenly father has not planted shall be plucked up by the roots. Leave them alone for they are blind, leaders of the blind.
And if the blind lead the blind they both fall into the ditch.
Peace!
You make it sound easy, but it's not so easy to have a conversation with lgbtq members. I've tried many times but they won't listen and will insult you instead.
Of course they do, you're telling them that there's something morally wrong with who they are.
@@Maksie0 yea these people try to sound desend first but sill same ending, plus hisyory has done all preachers keep preaching against them and those people know what a new preacher may say so they are not polite for that insight, but sadly these people like to film those specific obes and post it with the worst titles, they are the true brainwashers
Same. They don’t wanna talk and will completely avoid you even if you don’t say your opinion
@@orangeblossom9279"talking to GAYS" since it's gonna be about their sexuality, even just talking about other religious stuffs you people saying" talking to GAYS" not about their sexuality directly means you telling them you are christians to tell them something with you mentioning" talking to Gays" is obvious that the conclusion you make is gonna be about the wrongs in their choices. So they just don't wanna waste their time plus who speaks hatefully first doesn't represent everyone else yet you people always mention them ina way that people can see everyone like them to be hateful. Plus be kidnapped by a veiled person,tortured,abused and see someone else approaching you with familiar dress will make you afraid(in this case christians have hurt the mentality of gays and the gays exist on,meeting other christians and if those christians say" I am a christian" to gays that means they are gonna talk against them even in clever and nice ways but the intention us the same. Before saying nothing near them they won't know you are christians so obviously you give them the clue to those gays whom christians have oppressed that ypu may sound decend but intentionally speaking to them when they know you are christian is just "no". Most gays hear every thing,being oppressed by religious and homophobic people will probably talk against you first but don't thell me you mean you were gonna say something like" they won't help me when I ask them to help me with my bags" or something like that coz they are not psychics who know you are christians coz obviously I think you are talking about religion and them coz them knowing they are gays will obviously know you are gonna talk against them if you approach them with religious stuffs since if you really don't speak about you being religious first, like everybody else they won't know you are christians.
The most impactful problem of lgbtq+ community with religion is about religious peple oppressing them or pushing them as if they are gods and not wanting to stop religions for no reason,if you are gpnna point out this gay individual here and there say that, that is not what lgbtq people do but sone individuals as tgeir wills so dont try to generalise that.
You people never accept you act like gods yet then why are you trying so hard to indoctrinate others and oppress gays,aethist,etc who just exist as them and start responding your hates since you create for them. That's very godly act of judgement by christians since the main visible problem is like I said gays in the oppression of religious people. No lgbtq community or others as a group in general have big protest saying"christianity should be ended or something like that". Eben then they talj abput religious homophobia after the homophobia being pervading around the world not before anything happens.
@@orangeblossom9279 plus even not about religion if someone knows a person is selling things around and then he approaches him,he can deny or walk away that's a basic human right.
Your comment was as if they are your salves who should not refuse to listen about what they know you are gonna talk about since even just from this comment you make sure it's gonna be about them or you are not gonna say to a gay or anyone"I am a christian, so, "HELP ME WITH MY BAGS"
That girls wrong in so many ways. Crowley worship”do as thou wilt” you should link the full video.. You barely showed any of it.
I would say that rather than talking about what they're doing wrong or what they believe we should start with Jesus, with his blood. If they raise questions about their lifestyle we can tell them the truth that Jesus has better things for them but one way we are to rely on the spirit is by not trying to finesse our way into people's hearts. Now maybe there are those who are called to lifelong celibacy from whom God has taken away the desire for women but it is only this hypersexualized world that says they have to find someone to sleep with. This is actually a great blasphemy saying that God cannot satisfy their souls but rather that he has created something evil (homosexual desire) merely to torment them. I do think theres various other spiritual needs that satan also twists toward homosexuality but a key thing to understand is that sex is not vital to life, only Christ. Paul said that marriage was no sin but it would he better if all were just as he was (celibate) so we see that while God uses marriage to work mightily in the lives of his children (to help us understand his heart) he also gives great grace for those who wish to fellowship solely with him (at that level).
0:30 I think as long as you are confident in your faith, that is more than fine. Remember Jesus dined with prostitutes and tax collectors. Jesus went into the world and made worldly relationships with people, so that he may give them the truth. I honestly make something of an effort to be in the world a bit, not of the world, but I will go to VR parties, and talk to non-Christians all the time. My closest friends are Christian, of course, but I have made plenty of non-Christian friends too.
The bible is quite explicit that there are worse sins than others. This is not something you can really argue against unless you are saying that Jesus was lying. The bible also tells us that there will be a hierarchy in Heaven as well.
Teaching that all sins carry the same weight is unbiblical and you should be wary of people who do and say this.
Consider the fact that Jesus even specifically states that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit carries the weight of eternal sin on us. This is serious. If there was no hierarchy of sin seriousness, there is no way He would have said something like this.
I have a basic motto; "Live like a Christian/Muslim/Atheist/Hindu/Jew, vote like an American."
When you bring the church into the ballot box, you're crossing a line that should not be crossed. That's called a Theocracy. We fight wars about that.
No
@@jacques9515 I never thought of it that way. Thank you.
I agree. While my religious views might influence who I vote for, I will never vote for someone who will use their beliefs as a governmental sword.
@@leviberg2377 But how do you decide when it becomes a “governmental sword”? Let’s say your religion condemns gay marriage, isn’t it wielding a governmental sword to vote for the guy who will uphold “traditional marriage”?
@@BionicLatino The question you have to ask yourself is what is he meaning when he says "uphold"? If he means that's what he supports, then no, that is not wielding a governmental sword. Now, if that's what he supports and then tries to pass laws in order to make that the only option, that's wielding a governmental sword. Just because someone doesn't agree with a practice doesn't mean they'll necessarily remove the practice. Trump was the president for 4 years, and regardless of what the LGBTQ+ community says, he never took away their rights. Hitler, on the other hand...you get the point.
Jesus is coming back soon!
It's been "soon" for thousands of years now. I wouldn't hold my breath.
@@Maksie0 Hello. I have a genuine question. It's obvious (from your many comments on this channel) that you're a radical atheist. But then... as an atheist, is it not the best thing to do to just stop watching channels like this altogether? You're not hateful, from what I've observed. But if I were an atheist, I wouldn't just follow every post and every comment on Christian channels. I'd give myself a “breather”.
I guess I'm just trying to ask, “Why?” Why follow these videos and comments and everything when it's pretty obvious you don't like it. I hope you don't perceive this as an attack. I'm genuinely curious.
@@anastasiaifinedo7780 The main reason is that I abhor Christianity and other religions' attitude towards LGBTQ+ people. I think that attitude is causing a lot of very real harm. And so I want to change any minds I can. And if I can't change them, I want to at least interrupt the echo chamber to let them know that we're still here, and we're not going anywhere.
@@Maksie0 okay. Thank you for answering me.
.... If Christ's atonement is infinite... How can there be more or less "judgement" depending on the sin?
My friend, all sin is equal. Looking at a woman with lust is the same as adultery. Hate = murder. Jesus was very clear. Please be careful when you're in a position of authority here on YT.
