actually, a video from you guys (about the church in iran) encouraged me, a girl who has never left colombia, to a mission trip in the north zone of colombia. i was ASTONISHED by the evangelical wayuu (the indigenous population of La Guajira) and the kogui church (in Santa Marta) because they worshipped in their native language but the real creator❤. the hard thing about colombia is that most people know ABOUT Jesus and the gospel bc of us being a catholic country but they believe in a works based salvation, they pray to angels and statues not knowing only Jesus can save them. its actually pretty looked down to be an evangelical (i am the only christian in a culturally catholic family and its not really fun haha) but yeah, the work for people even in cities (i live in bogota) to know the ACTUAL gospel is still hard
How did you find this mission trip?? I'm trying to go on one, I'm also from Colombia 😬
Catholics Know that only Jesus Can save them though
Your mischaracterization of Catholic viewpoints shows pretty clearly you've never been catechized.
The first step if you want to convert Catholics to grasp the Gospels more fully is to have the graciousness to study their doctrine in the fullness of charity.
If you get how to convert Catholics from Protestant myths and accusations (like the ones you've listed which, when true to the degree they're portrayed, _are_ explicit heresy) and the anti-Christian accusations levied against the Catholic church, then you are unconsciously leaning into the ways of someone you don't want to be leaning into.
Just please be careful not to get addicted to the sense you are righteously fighting for Christ to bring Him to pagan non-Christians.
If you need more elaboration on specific points, I will respond when available.
@@TheDarkRobloxian Would you mind elaborating on your claims?
I am a Christian and rightly respect Mary because she gave birth to Jesus. But nowhere in the Bible it is said to pray to her, did the apostles Peter, James and Paul pray to her? Why should we?
I respect her yes we should respect but why believe we need an intermediary between us and God other than Jesus?
@@ebenezerkouakou3869 Sure.
The short of it is that we believe Jesus made us into his family, and Mary holds a special place both in that family by nature and by being the most emblematic as the woman crushing the snake and as the woman crowned with stars.
When Jesus says He is the God of the living, we act according to this faith, and ask those living righteous in His presence to pray for us and with us, because the prayers of the righteous are powerful. It's not about putting devotion to the saints in the middle and calling it devotion to God like the Pharisees honored their parents; it's just one of the things He has clearly established in Scripture for us children to see.
Maranatha. From the beautiful Colombia with love ❤. Please pray for our country, violence is growing very fast.
I love these videos, keep it up man!
Oro por regresar a Colombia. Es mi sueño a ver ese país que amo tanto, entregarse a Dios. Saludos de un corazón humillado.
I love these videos and look forward to them every week.
Hola a todos soy Colombiano, vivo en Medellín, fui desplazado junto a mi familia y ahora, acabo de terminar el libro "Radical" y me gustaría poderme comunicar directamente con ustedes, agradezco que sea posible 🙏🏻
Conocer más sobre Colombia es un compromiso con el mandato que tenemos todos. Mateo 28:18-20 "18Y Jesús se acercó y les habló diciendo: Toda potestad me es dada en el cielo y en la tierra. 19Por tanto, id, y haced discípulos a todas las naciones,b bautizándolos en el nombre del Padre, y del Hijo, y del Espíritu Santo; 20enseñándoles que guarden todas las cosas que os he mandado; y he aquí yo estoy con vosotros todos los días, hasta el fin del mundo. Amén."
WOW!! I just found your channel and I loved it. What a great editing and production job.
I'm Colombian, I live in Medellin as a missionary for 5 years and I am motivated to see how you have been able to portray the history of the gospel in Colombia.
As a missionary I can say that despite everything there is hope!
Thank you very much for coming to my nation and bringing the Kingdom of God to Medellin.
I started watching this channel to impression with Information about the project brought for us, hopefully in the future, the project can reach for Asia zone 🙏 I come from Vietnam 😄 pray for your project more growing 🎉 all for God's glory 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, great video! Maranatha!
I lived in lomalinda from 1967- 1970 I was 11 years old when our family went there
My uncle & his family as well as many American Missionaries have gone to Columbia & lived there to translate the Bible to several tribal languages to reach the tribes. This happened in the 80’s-2000’s through Wycliffe Bible Translation. My cousin was 2 when my uncle & his family decided to move to Columbia. My cousin basically grew up as a Colombian & speaks both English & Spanish fluently. In fact he holds a Columbian citizenship there so he gets basically free medical treatments from there… However, it got so dangerous for the American missionaries so they eventually moved back to America.
The media team for this chamnel is beyond!! How do we sow into this movement?
I love this channel!! Improvise if you like, but don't stop🙏
You should voice translate, not just caption. Most people take the time to listen to videos like this, more than watch.
You guys are AWESOME! Thanks for doing a video about cOLOMBIA
En Colombia no hay problema con el evangelio, la cuestión es que esas comunidades son cerradas y muy complejas, no aceptan otras reglas, ellos solo aceptan lo que ellos creen, nadie los obliga simplemente, ellos son así, el mayor obstáculo para ellos son las mismas leyes de Colombia, las leyes los sobreprotejen, es más conozco comunidades que se dedican a robar y a traficar y no se les puede decir nada, porque están protegidos por las leyes colombianas, eso es un mito, además la mayoría de esas comunidades hablan español y las que están más en la selva, son pocas, nadie les impone nada, ellos son "libres" quizás esa misma "libertad" los perjudica con relación a abrirse a convertirse al cristianismo, pero para aprender a traficar a robar y a violar las leyes, ahí si están abiertos, eso es un mito, no sigan con eso, porque eso quizás fue en un tiempo, hoy en día, ya no existe, ellos tienen más privilegios que nosotros los mestizos, somos igual de Colombianos a ellos, pero ellos tienen mejores privilegios y eso los perjudica, me encuentro en Alemania y creo que es más difícil predicar el evangelio aquí, que en las selvas de Colombia, porque aquí, predicar a Jesús el Cristo, según las leyes es "irrespetar el islam"
