Glory Be To God!! He loves you so much ❤️

Romans 10:9 - "...that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you WILL be saved."

Godhead The first article of faith of The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints states, “We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.” These three beings make up the Godhead. They preside over this world and all other creations of our Father in Heaven. Latter-day Saints view the members of the Godhead in a manner that corresponds in a number of ways with the views of others in the Christian world, but with significant differences. Latter-day Saints pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ. They acknowledge the Father as the ultimate object of their worship, the Son as Lord and Redeemer, and the Holy Spirit as the messenger and revealer of the Father and the Son. But where Latter-day Saints differ from other Christian religions is in their belief that God and Jesus Christ are glorified, physical beings and that each member of the Godhead is a separate being. The true doctrine of the Godhead was lost in the apostasy that followed the Savior’s mortal ministry and the deaths of His Apostles. This doctrine began to be restored when 14-year-old Joseph Smith received his First Vision (see Joseph Smith-History 1:17). From the Prophet’s account of the First Vision and from his other teachings, we know that the members of the Godhead are three separate beings. The Father and the Son have tangible bodies of flesh and bones, and the Holy Ghost is a personage of spirit (see Doctrine and Covenants 130:22). Although the members of the Godhead are distinct beings with distinct roles, they are one in purpose and doctrine. They are perfectly united in bringing to pass Heavenly Father’s divine plan of salvation.

I love this ❤

I really like what you wrote, so much so that I felt obliged to say "thank you" and that it pleases me to know that you obviously have learned from your grandfather.

This is such a beautiful expression of a life lived well.

This is an amazing testimony!! Your grandfather and your family (including you) was and is very blessed, God is truly great.

My his soul rest in peace

Amen, May God continue to give you strength and guidance. 🙏🏼

What really helped me bro is accepting that I can only control things that are within my control, and things that are outside my control, are within God’s control. We all struggle with life at some point, what is important to remember God will only allow struggles in our lives so far, and only for a season. Stay strong in The Lord my brother, His redemption draws near.

People talk about "meeting God ". Interested to know, How did this happen?

I was in a middle of a miracle when I was 10, my dad was a drinker, smoker and never went to chuch, but when he listened to Kent Hovind. He later studied everything if the evolution theory is wrong, went to buy more books about evolution and creation. He gave his heart to the Lord after that. He also started to read the Bible(KJV), he always said that it is the most accurate and was written out of the dead sea scrolls. I saw a miracle again, there was a trail of fire on the mountains it grew longer, visible to the naked eye. It almost burned our houses when it came closer everyday and night. I cried and prayed because my mom did the same thing. They said on the weather news that there won't be any rain after two weeks. There was just smoke all around us. I prayed and prayed and then i felt a drop of water, the smoke became rain clouds. The trail of Fire started to extinguished, there was also one fireman helicopter in our town and it couldn't just be that for that size of fire. It rained. It was in my home country, South Africa that it happened. My dad geve up everything to believe in God, and you told me he isn't real. I saw a lot of miracles, maybe atheist never saw a miracle or blame God of something in the past. I don't want to argue so I rather pray for them than fight. I also chose a hard path like being a Conservationist yet other people like me try to prove He doesn't exist, God works in mysterious ways, I don't even understand it but I feel he saved me a bunch of times and I didn't even thanked him enough. He save everybody even my grandpa who gave is heart to the Lord and past away the week after, I know where he is now and I know where I go at least in the afterlife.

It's better to believe than not believe

This is religion and not science. Universities deal with science and not with beliefs and superstitions.

@@giuseppe5397 universities were started by the Catholic Church in the West. The first discoveries in science were done by religious scholars and priest. The BigBang theory was developed by a Catholic priest. Harvard was started as a seminary and religious school. Oxford too!

Your silly superstitious nonsense in no way belongs in the classroom. School is for education, not faith and fables.

@@ShirleyTimple schools in modern times is to indoctrinate children into the liberal atheist mindset. It would be better that they were taught both actual science and Faith. They aren’t incompatible. Science and faith both come from God. Just because you are angry at God and don’t want to come to terms with your sin and be judged for it shouldn’t be the basis for schools.

Absolutely a lovely man, but a fully delusional person too. He lost the beauty of scientific exploration by adopting a set of weak dogmatic positions.

But even then the theory is provisional. *The methodology for creationist claims (the type made by John Lennox) is also very clear:* Make claims with no evidence (about god(s), Christianity or "Salvation") ----> proselytize and preach those creationist claims ----> reject all evidence to the contrary ----> continue to preach ---> fight to the death for those fake beliefs.

See my earlier comment - I was not aware of this quote but it is spot on. My question therefore is ‘why do so many believers, the speaker in this video included, feel the need to convince non-believers that their deity exists?’ The first part of Aquinas’ statement would imply that believers who do that measure the validity of their religion by the standards of non-believers. The fact that non-believers do not believe in a deity simply should not matter to believers. Period. And if you think the second part of the statement is true, recurrent attempts by believers to convince non-believers to abandon their world view is even more confounding…

I suppose the contentiousness is derived from people living side by sude evrry day fundementally disagreeing on how the universe came into being. Further disagreements include those of what laws should apply. I, quite honestly, aleays fail to take true believers seriously as the notion that God should have come into being spontaniously is no more likely than that the universe did. Furthermore that His principles have not stood the test of time (gender roles for example) must surely disproves his omnipitence, as he must surely have been aware those millenia ago that the world wood change. But the bible does not account for this.

@campdon So you needed a video of a professor rambling on, to make you see what is what? Does not say much for your pre video life.

And I wanna ask that even if we are correct about the existence of God, can we ever be correct about the perception of God? We think that God is almighty, but what are the odds of this being true? Can't He just be a psycho sitting up there looking at us doing bad stuffs and enjoying? You only believe in God because that's how you've been raised. If your family and friends never told you about God, you would have died without ever giving two fucks about His existence.

You don't need to worship anyone. All religions come from the same source, and the books are adapted to the needs of man. God is not an entity, it's the source of everything, an all knowing energy that consists of every soul in existance. You are a part of God, we are all connected

light behaves as both particle and wave, this has been proved by de Broglie. But as a matter of fact light is neither a particle nor wave. The nature of light is limited by our imagination/technology Similarly we do not have the capability to imagine the clear picture of god. God is like my eternally loving mother and is the mother of all living and non-living, whom I find scary and at the same time I feel grateful. You are only scared of mother when you do bad things, and if you are regretful and amend your mistakes then your mother will forgive or lessen your punishment.

You pray becuase you can't avoid it, I'm not a bible fanatic but I do remember stuff that made sense "you will not test the Lord thy god" sincerity is key, you don't just pray every Sunday or sunset or any space set aside for it, real prayer is constant.

my understanding is that you pray to show devotion, because you have a desire to supplicate yourself before a greater power, and doing so before another human being feels abominable. Showing submission towards God pleases that not often recognized part of human psychology in a way that also reminds one to take stock of both the good and the bad in their life in a conscientious way, and still allows (but certainly doesn't encourage) an internal locus of control. It's certainly a healthier way to express this need than BDSM or OF participation, which I do think serve nearly identical purposes for the majority of practitioners.

you have no idea what you are talking about

Show one instance when Lennox gave any evidence of his god, all he ever does is appeals to authority even the authority from history, he may as well just read out biblical scripture, after all he always says 'I believe', which is not evidence for any god.

He's not talking about ever athiest. He's talking about the ones who say nothing came into existence and since we are a speck with out free will ps some say this on a big stage. Then bam here we are. I personally don't buy into the statement if someone can validate and articulate why they believe in God and then say good old " well God works in mysterious ways statement. The world believe in Hebrew was used in the same manor of. I know it is so. If I ask a carpenter if they built a house. They would say I believe so I am a carpenter. It take the person to go and understand what God is vs some fire brimes stone performer. I agree with alot of people who have a reason to avoid God and why they say so. I always sat. If God exists you come to know God doesn't agree with how they slander our creator either.

It seems that you acknowledge that the world was created, but just don't know how. So, what better explanation is there than it was created by a Creator rather than from nothing or whatever other explanation someone might have? It seems to me that it had to have been created for a reason, so I don't see any other explanation of it being created for a reason except that an All-powerful Creator decided to create the world.

Maybe you should care more. If God is not real, then what’s stopping you from following any moral laws at all? And if He is, the thought of standing before him knowing that you simply didn’t care enough to investigate the truth of why you’re here should make you quake at your core. I am retired national intelligence analyst. I spent decades wanting to disprove these “dumb Christians”; but the more I tried to disprove Christ and God the Father, the more I got slapped in the face with the hard and steady truth. Please, don’t you dare take my word for it. Look for yourself. Really start asking questions. It’s truly *the most* important part of life here on earth that you should aim to figure out.

@@ETube1971 //So, what better explanation is there than it was created by a Creator...//. First, we need to define our terms better. What do you mean by "world"? The Universe?

Secondly, lets assume that God created the created part of the Universe. Ok, so what? Even Richard Dawkins admitted that a case could be made for a Deistic God, prime mover, etc...

So, he (Shaytan) redefines immorality as morality, and then you run with it. But you know you're wrong, and that's really why Muslims make you so uncomfortable. And why you have to talk about the Taliban and all that to convince yourself that Shaytan's propaganda is true. So you can rationalize your disobedience to God as a good thing, rationalize the moral decay of your societies as a virtuous thing. It's a breathtaking level of dishonesty, and it's going to let you down. It is letting you down, and it is by far the most oppressive way to live your life. Because ultimately, immorality, irresponsibility, and selfishness are truly tyrannical and damaging. And the moral discipline that Muslims live by, the Sharia, is liberating and empowering. So you have to call what we follow oppressive, just to keep yourself from facing the oppression that you are actually under. [end]

They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the third of three." And there is no god except one God. And if they do not desist from what they are saying, there will surely afflict the disbelievers among them a painful punishment. Al-Ma'idah:73

And [beware the Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the people, 'Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah ?'" He will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen. Al-Ma'idah:116

Very nice! 👍

“What’s the point of worshipping a God that doesn’t answer? We have a literal personal relationship.” Well the point could be that it calms your fear of death. The idea that you will truly never see the people you’ve loved and lost again or that one day you’ll just stop existing could be so painful that you imagine this relationship with a god that isn’t real. I’m totally conflicted. I used to have a really strong faith and it just evaporated when I lost my daughter. Now I’m completely an I Don’t Know-ist. I’m a huge critical thinker and I can usually argue both sides of something but never so strongly as the question of whether God is real or a fantasy. Inside I feel like you’d have to be an absolute moron to believe in God. At the exact same time, I feel like you’d have to be an absolute moron to not believe in God. It’s the weirdest thing. So I’m definitely not saying that I for sure know that the relationship you claim with God is wishful thinking on your part. I’m just offering an answer to your question of “what would be the point?”

@@trickortrump3292 I'm sorry to hear about your daughter. God bless you. You are in my prayers. This is a broken world, full of broken people and pain and sin. This is why Christians pray the Lord's prayer. "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven". Is a Desperate cry from Christians for our Lord to hurry back and put an end to suffering. I can't explain, or even understand a single bit of how it must feel to lose a child. My heart is broken for you. God bless you.

Maybe all here in this group should try to understand Hinduism. Christ preached the Hindu concepts which were misunderstood as per the limited understanding that the west had of religion at that time.

​@@trickortrump3292 Try listening to jeffrey lang and the purpose of life..

Science is descriptive, it can be used to predict the universe's behavior, if it cannot, it is improved so it may do so :)

"If your daughter gets raped, sell her to her attacker" (Deut 22: 28-29). Yep, great wisdom from a personal God.

AMEN Wowza that was incredible We are truly lucky to be loved by god so much

Have you ever _directly observed_ this 'personal God'?

The Resurrection is the proof . . . . but the Bible says that on that day the graves "gave up their dead" - - there were hundreds, at least, of resurrected people walking around Jerusalem. These hundreds of people would need food, a place to sleep, jobs, a change of clothes . . . . there's no real mention of what happened to the hundreds, if not thousands of newly homeless people walking around Jerusalem.

I hope in those 50 years you've learned how to use faith to help people. You don't need to pick up that idiot argument that your faith is the truth when there is no evidence that it is. Faith doesn't have to be true to be helpful.

❤❤❤

Agreed.

You contribute NOTHING to understanding with this comment.

Because we still think arguing over which sky-daddy is real is more important like, I dunno, EVERY SERIOUS PROBLEM THE WORLD IS FACING RIGHT NOW!!!

Because that’s not what the Bible says to do. So if it’s true, we must follow it

@@deadandgone70 If it’s true we must follow it. Prove that it is true. Prove your god as you understand it to exist. I will reserve judgment until I become privy to extraordinary proof to validate this extraordinary claim.

Or is the cause of it.

@@sandponics IF He IS the 'cause' of it; it is ONLY because #1. Our SINS; including our unbelief and rebellion against Him have BROUGHT these things to us; because God says, "A curse WITHOUT CAUSE will NOT alight", or #2. We are going through something that; IF we go through it with a RIGHT and not SNOTTY attitude; we will find...maybe not right away...that there WAS or IS a purpose in it. ATTITUDE will determine MUCH of what we go through. WE can make this EASIER (Not easy; but easier); OR; we can make things unnecessarily MUCH HARDER. The choice is OURS. God is holy; He CANNOT do wrong; we are sinners; and can do very little BUT sin. The balance, or INBALANCE; between us...whose hearts are FILLED with anger; lust; perversion; addictions; murder; etc.. and a just, good; and holy God; who has no sin, couldn't be any clearer. Let's not TRY HARDER to do and BE wrong; but to do and be more right. The FIRST step is NOT rebelling against God. God loves you; He truly does; but if you treat Him as though He's bad or wrong; then THAT WILL BE what you EXPERIENCE. It's not what really is; but it's what you will create for yourself....what WE all create for ourselves.

🔥THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God saves man from the destruction of this old world" (God incarnate is called Christ, and Christ is the human body clothed by the Spirit of God. He is the incarnation of the Spirit. He has both normal humanity and full divinity. Whether human or it is His divinity, both of them submit to the will of the Father in heaven. The Spirit is the spirit of Christ, which means the divinity. This is what all people must understand. The spirit of the work of the Holy Spirit is to save man, and for the sake of God's own rule. Since God became flesh, He realizes His spirit within His human body, that His human body is sufficient to carry out His work. Whether it is the Spirit of God or whether it is Christ, both are God Himself, and He does the work He should do and fulfills the ministry He should perform.) Almighty God said GOD incarnate is called CHRIST, and CHRIST is the flesh clothed by the SPIRIT of GOD. 🙏 This human body is not like any human being in the flesh. This difference is because CHRIST is NOT made of FLESH and BLOOD; He is the incarnation of the SPIRIT. He has BOTH NORMAL HUMANITY and FULL DIVINITY. 🙏 No man possesses His divinity. His normal humanity sustains all His normal activities in the human body, while His divinity accomplishes the work of God Himself. Whether it is His humanity or His divinity, they both submit to the will of the Father in heaven. The SPIRIT is the SPIRIT of CHRIST, meaning the GOD HEAD. Therefore, His SPIRIT is GOD HIMSELF; this SPIRIT will not INTERFERE with His OWN WORK, and He cannot possibly do anything that would destroy His own work, nor will He utter any words that are contrary to His own will. ☀️ Therefore, God incarnate will absolutely never do any work that interferes with His own governance. This is what all people should understand. The INTENT of the WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT is to SAVE MAN, and for the SAKE of GOD'S OWN RULE. ☀️ Similarly, the work of CHRIST is also to SAVE MAN, and it is for the WILL of GOD. Since GOD HAS BEEN INCARNATED, He REALIZES His SPIRIT within His HUMAN BODY, that His HUMAN BODY is SUFFICIENT to CARRY OUT His WORK. 🙏 Therefore, ALL the WORKS of the SPIRIT of GOD were REPLACED by the WORKS of CHRIST during the INCARNATION, and at the CORE of all the WORKS during the ENTIRE INCARNATION was the WORKS of CHRIST. ☀️ It CANNOT be MIXED with WORK from ANY OTHER ERA. And SINCE GOD BECOMES FLESH, He WORKS in the IDENTITY of His FLESH; since He COMES in the HUMAN BODY, He thus FINISHES in the HUMAN BODY the WORK He has to DO. ☀️ Whether it is the SPIRIT of GOD or CHRIST, both of them are GOD HIMSELF, and He DOES the WORK that He should DO and PERFORMS the MINISTRY that He should PERFORM. 🙏 From "The Spirit of Christ is Obedience to the Will of the Father in Heaven" Fulfillment of "When I looked up, someone handed me a book wrapped in a scroll. I opened it and I read on both sides the prayers, sorrows, and curses." (Ezekiel 2:9-10). ... "His garment was stained with blood. He was called the "Word of God" (Rev. 19:13). The kingdom He brought down and set up in the highest in the sky so that it can occupy His creation in the universe and engrave on it the entirety of His Holy name "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD" 💐 fulfillment of (Mat. 16:18) "And I say as for you, you are Peter, on top of this rock I will build my Church, that even the power of death will not prevail over it.". ... and "The Letter to the Church in Philadelphia" (Rev. 3:7-13). ... And fulfillment of "The New Jerusalem" 💫 "The Spirit enveloped me, and the angel led me to the top of a very high mountain. He showed Me Jerusalem, the Holy City, coming down from heaven from God." (Rev. 3:7-13). ... " For the time has come in the house of God for the beginning of judgment in the house of God." (1 Peter 4:17). ... It is fulfilled that God Himself is our Pastor in (Rev. 7:17) 💐 "For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their PASTOR. He will lead them to springs of life-giving water; and God will wipe the tears from their eyes" 📩 Calling and leading the sheep of God to His glorious Throne "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD"💐 to submit again to His authority so that He will continue to teach, guide and protect even in plague, famine and wild animals will not be moved by it and completely win this final battle with the big red dragon!

Almost the same to me 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Me, too; I'm 63, and as far back as I can remember as a little kid. It wasn't 'upbringing', or 'culture', either; I knew I was among God's elect in that same wordless voice that tell you when you need a specific salad, or that someone you meet is bad company. Before I ever started reading the Instruction Book, or getting exposed to scientism ~or~ the actual Laws of Physics..... I can't imagine not having been one of God's; I think 'athiesm' rationalizes 'psychopathy' to anyone who wants a Rationale for consequence-free 'nihilism'. We're just pilgrims in this land, kids......

​@@hippiekarl7 Each 1 of us, has a load of things to do. Including our immediate responsibilities. But, in the end, we can only be an overcomer, if we have Jesus with us. He is our comforter, for He laid His life for us. Such love. We receive God's Grace and Mercies to strengthen us, if we Trust and have Faith in His plan.

SAME HERE !!! KNOWING GOD FROM AN EARLY AGE HAS SURE MADE LIFE MUCH EASIER TO MARCH THROUGH ....

You should have left your childish beliefs in your childhood, when you grew you should have put away childish things, however, when you're dead it won't matter what you believed in life. Ask yourself why every religion ever invented is/was called a "Faith"?

Persons usually have a demonstrable correaltion with reality! God is a fictional character that only exists in the minds of those who believe in such atavistic mythology.

If gods a person he should be able to hello shouldn't he? Isn't the only reason that he can't because he's merely a creature from mythology?

Preach it!!! Amen!!!

I've watched this and they were destroyed by the Atheist, 👍🙂

It was never about the "rebuttal" it was always about perspective. Instead of asking "Is there a God?", he suggest "Is it worth it to believe in a God?". I have no idea if there is a God, but I'm 100% sure it's absolutely worth it to believe in it(Statistically speaking at least).

@@elbonja which one?

@@Glorfinder-yy2ml The one that suits you better. People complicate themselves trying to understand the nature of an entity beyond our understanding. Whoever/whatever you believe in, its fine as long as you and everyone around you are happy in any way, shape or form. Essentially, the 10 commandments are the easiest way to create a more just and productive society. It's not so hard to understand really, but to conclude: It doesnt matter what you believe in as long as you're a good, prudent, moral person.

I became a believer after looking for truth for a time and that is a LONG story itself. I went to bible college for a time and left after meeting my wife, getting married, and having kids. Then, I decided to get a science degree in petroleum and everything pointed to God and a creator, order from chaos. After graduating with that it was decided to go back to bible college and graduate with a biblical studies degree. I feel they go hand in hand and only streghtened my belief in God and everything in the scriptures. I've had some amazing experiances with God and have met some phenominal people through the years.

Well yes I have little issue with religious empathy towards others I just have my tools to understand the universe a like better than simple faith.
