@@dogelife7901 Absolutely true, wherever one is at.

@@clearascrystal4960 another step as you grow in the faith is trusting in everything you do. All day long, every moment during the day.. I took a huge step of faith in learning more after becoming a believer. I've learned that my step each day in faith has produced an amazing amount of love that God has returned in my favor because of that faith. After learning more, I've noticed in the Book of Daniel there was faith among Daniel and god blessed him because of his faith. Also Jesus even mentioned "if you abide in me, then I will abide in you". Since we are the branch, we must first abide in the vine in order to produce more fruit in our lives. Time and time God has showed me more as I continue to learn more and seek him all day, every hour, every minute...all day long.. AMEN!

@@midwestflying3461 That certainly blessed and helps me. I'm reading more of the scriptures these days, and speaking more to the Lord during my day, trying to "abide in Him", especially in these uncertain days it helps. God Bless you.

@@midwestflying3461 Amen you have an amazing viewpoint and you know Scripture God bless you sister.

It made me smile as well. Jesus is 💯 my best, trustworthy, loving, compassionate and powerful friend. I started watching Cliffe about 9 or 10 months ago now and so happy he has years of footage available. I pray you’re doing well a year after making this comment. God Bless. 🙏💕

At 8:03 lol

I love how he looks like an owl he is wise he has Godly wisdom and walks in the light and the darkness doesn’t like him you saw the girl she just walked of in defiant way she couldn’t stand in the light anymore

In German we'd say he looks " stabil " . 😂 It means " stable " .

I was wondering about that; I think it’s because he is so tall, he wants to be at their eye level, so he doesn’t appear as overpowering. Just wisdom.

"Tackling" the bigger problems hehe

@@robertoarriola-bustamante9169 what are you ignorant?

@@jeffreytott6403 it's a simple cuestion why are you getting mad and calling me ignorant

@Whit U, could you give an example of how you think Christians misrepresent Christ?

bonnie43uk... 1. Some who call themselves Christians, for example, commit crimes or grossly sin against God and each other, which is self-explanatory, if you're aware of what the scriptures say (eg: the ten commandments). 2. Those who promote the gospel of health, wealth and prosperity (eg: Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn, Joel Osteen, etc.) are called Word-Faith teachers, twisting the meaning of the scriptures. 3. Cults like Mormonism and Jehovah's Witnesses use the name of Jesus, but don't teach Jesus is God, as He claimed to be (again, twisting scriptures and adding false doctrines that the Bible does not teach). 4. Many also use the name of Christ for personal gain, such as the father of the boy in the book/movie titled: Heaven is for Real. The boy, now older, claims that his father exploited him for profit. I could go on, but I think you get the idea. This is why it's important that we not believe everything we are told, that we read the Bible for ourselves, in context, and in consideration of the purpose, culture and time of historical events written therein.

@Whit U. Ah, ok, it's good to be in agreement with you on most of what you wrote, I totally agree with you about people like Copeland, Hinn and others, they are totally exploiting people for monetary gain. And I agree with you that Mormonism and Jehova's witness are cults. . I'm sure you would vehemently disagree with me though if I told you I think Christianity is also a cult. Albeit a huge global cult, split up into hundreds of smaller cults. If we define a cult as : A social group defined by their religious, spiritual and philosophical beliefs, then I think Christianity fits in neatly into that bracket. You made an interesting point about reading the bible in context, one of the problems is that as humans we are incredibly diverse in our thinking , how we view what comes off of the written page differs wildly, some people will take a passage literally ( as in Lots wife being turned into a pillar of salt), and others will view it as poetic licence. I'm fairly certain that my reading of page 1 of Genesis will not agree with how you view it. I was discussing this with a person here in these comments the other day regarding Gen 1:16, concerning God making 2 great lights, I was telling him that moonlight is simply the Sun's reflection, he was adamant that the moon had it's own light system and that Gen 1:16 was absolutely correct.

bonnie43uk ...Agreed, for the most part. I don't believe that Genesis was ultimately meant to define science for us, but that it is the foundational history of the the relationship between God and man and how it all started so that we can better understand how we ended up so deprived today. I haven't found any real science that contradicts the Bible's claims, but like you said, one can easily interject his/her own understanding into it. Studying the original language and the meaning of the words used can help clear things up. In countries where everyone owns a smartphone and a computer, access to technology and reference tools gives us no excuse for sloppy interpretation, especially on important topics like the origin of life, God's existence, science, archaeology, philosophy, etc. It's important to be a thorough, fair and responsible investigator of whether there's a God, whether life has intrinsic value and meaning, what God (if He exists) want us to know, what should we do with what we know, and what the result will be of what I tell others (especially in a lazy, gullible, "fast-food" age). This is why I so appreciate intellectual honesty, like you've just displayed. But I loathe when people don't take life, themselves or others seriously and drag others with them into a pool of lies, deceit, cowardice and vices. Some will never know what it means to take the less travelled road or explore the answers to life's questions because they've been programmed to take the easy, fun, pleasurable path. Anyone can do that.

Thanks for your reply. I enjoy these discussions, as a former Christian it's a subject that is close to my heart. I enjoy watching Cliffe's video's and I always tend to side with the students who he debates, their arguments tend to make much more sense to me. These comment discussions are just an extension of the things Cliffe and the students chat about. It would be good to know a little more about you and your faith, where you're from, why you believe the things you do, etc. I'm in the UK from a town called Swindon, it's about halfway between Oxford and Stonehenge. I'm 58 and male ( i get the odd comment about my name and occasionally get mistaken for a female, that is my fault for choosing the name bonnie I guess.. it was simply a name of a song I liked, I've had that name for over 15 years now and have no wish to change it.). If there is anything you want to ask me about my disbelief I'll be happy to answer. We are probably both keen t think the things we believe are true.I have no doubt that Cliffe believe's 100% that his belief in the gospels is absolutely true. I have my doubts though.

How can you allow someone to change you if that someone already knows the outcome before it happens?

@@chimpintree My friend, that's where faith comes in. Submitting to His will for my life shows faith in His ability and willingness to do so. There is nothing more important than a relationship with him.

​@@chimpintreethat was not a very well thought out question.

They have to explain because Cliffe doesn't understand the difference. I've watched tons of his videos and come to the conclusion Cliffe is dilusional!

Cliffe is genius!

chimpintree...I have also watched tons of these videos and have come to the conclusion that the majority of these students are idiots,i don`t know how Cliffe has the patience with them

@jeremiah sams they are just able to pass exams. They are otherwise not intelligent.

chimpintree - You are delusional. Cliffe is telling folks to examine the evidence from source documents. He isn’t proselytizing, he’s telling children to think critically, and choose the best & most reliable world view.

Stubborn pride

Also because doesn't have the Holy Spirit. Of course it all sound crazy to her.

And that’s ok. Let her decide. Because no one accepts so quickly. Even if they did they still have doubt at first. And one that accepts is not better that those who do not believe.

Poor thing. I can tell she also needs deliverance. She needs the power of the Holy Spirit to be demonstrated in her life.

She can't agree because she loves sin more than herself.

Exactly. That's how religion works. They tell you not to use your common sense. Just reading Genesis is enough to tell you the bible is nonsense!

@@chimpintree what part of Genesis.

@@truth0077 all of genius is BS. Science has proven that it's all crap. But you can't convince the religiously brainwashed. That's why Trump chose the religious to back him. They're just not smart people. They believe anything they're told. Sad really!

@@chimpintree lol... you just proved you are an ignorant fool. So you voted for this old man that is not doing anything but taking naps. You are brainwashed by CNN and the rest of those great journalists. Yeah Jussie Smollett got attacked by 2 white guys wearing maga hats roflmbo. How is that fake news working out for you. You moron.

@@truth0077 I did not know he claimed they were wearing maga hats lol.

Not just not winning the argument, but if you think about it, some people don't even want answers to their questions. They just use their questions as reasons to attack the Bible. To them, if it doesn't make sense within the first few minutes, it's bullcrap. They don't take the time to think about what Cliffe is saying. Saddening indeed.

It is sad, but Cliff did a good job of pointing out her hang ups. Any religion that uses a name other than Christianity to describe itself, can it really be Christian? Why separate yourself that way, is it because they dont really accept christ? I have seem many nondenominational churches pop up for this reason. It's great to have fellowship but if we look at the way Jesus lived what church did Jesus put up a sign outside and meet once a week at?....

Methodist church yeahh ...which has no sound doctrine is the result of that girl. She is the type of girl who would believe all the million avatars of hinduism without a second thought but have a hard time believing in Jesus Christ.

cliff is a deceiver

@@Blackhebrew01 Please, explain why you think so as I don't agree.

@@ev2175 why I think so what, you have to be more specific.

@@ev2175 Cliff is Preaching Christianity, out of that same Bible in Psalms 147:19-20 The Most High God says that He gave His laws statues and commandments to the children of Israel, when you sin you are breaking the laws statues and commandments. He hath not dealt so with any Nation, means he doesn't deal with the other Nations. So if He doesn't deal with the other Nations, then they are not subject to God's laws, Am I crazy for saying that, no listen what Amos 3:1-Here this word that the Lord hath spoken against you, O Children of Israel, notice that He said I children of Israel He didn't say anybody else, He said I children of Israel, against the whole family which I bought up from the land of Egypt,saying, You only have I Known, of all the families of the earth, God Is saying I don't know these other Nations of people, I don't care about them, but because I know you, and I gave my laws statues and commandments to you, you're the one I'm going to punish for your sins. And to show you that God doesn't care about the other Nations read Isaiah 40:15, so if Cliff is teaching Salvation to a people to whom there is no Salvation, he is a deciever.

@@Blackhebrew01 Well the writer of the psalm says that. That God has done this for no other nation, that they do not know his laws. This makes you ask the question, why? And if you read from genesis up to that point you see how God honours His promises with Abraham and his descendants, so it isn’t an issue of favouritism per se. Additionally it doesn’t mean that God would never deal with others nations, don’t twist what you read or make it to appear one way when that isn’t the point being made. Also, in the New Testament we are shown that Gods purpose was for everyone to know Him and he shows us this by the fact that he wants everyone to know the good news (the gospel). So, to insinuate from a psalm written at one point in time for a specific purpose, that God doesn’t want to deal with the rest of creation is kind of messy. I don’t think that train of thought is logical.

No intelligent person has ever said "science can't be wrong". Science is learning. However. I know people who actually think the bible can't be wrong. Now that statement can't be further from the truth!

They take evolution as fact and will claim it to be proven true, e ery time. This is a partial truth. Adaptation and natural selection happen, but the common ancestor does not. Dogs make dogs,, cats cats, humans humans and so on for all recorded history. We don't see any Significant new species, only small changes within kinds. The problem is this becomes no longer science but historical guessing when we say because there is diversity then everything must have come from each other. It's like finding a wet noodle and then saying it came from a dry noodle, ok fine. But then saying that boiling water turned into a dry noodle and is a common ancestor. It's a big reach, with the fuzzy factor being millions or billions of years and lack of complete fossil evidence to explain it away. But truly it's a convenient way to dismiss God. Then one can argue all day about evidence and evolution instead of what really matters, rational thought, morality, and purpose. Because if evolution us true you are just a meat bag. A cosmic mistake and when you die you will no longer exist and the only reason you are alive is meaningless in the grand scheme of evolutionary death. There isnt live nor hate nor anything wrong or right. It all just is. You are a random gathering of cells cursed with self awareness, but there is no self. Its a fleeting feeling that you are real at all. There is no reason to be good. Take what you can without being caught, dupe as many people as possible, there is no real truth or justice just whims of an advanced apelike species, so live like it.

@@chimpintreeright that’s why this person is suggested there be some sort of class to teach that sort of logical thinking because unfortunately common sense like that is becoming less common

You can see before she attempted to leave, she was considering the realizations in her head but she is still looking for something.

I pray she seeks the Truth and finds Him.

He's not debating him, he's trying to open their minds. If he attacked evolution which is that kids religion, he would have shut down to new ideas and been defensive.

Not only that but evolution can't explain how life began. Cant account for the Cambrian Explosion and cannot explain Irreducible Complexity. Ref: James Tour, William Lane Craig, Michael Behe and Stephen Meyer.

Who said he dodged anything???????🤔

Is cliffe god?

Boblarson lol indeed he is.

Which god?

@Srk Do you mean "Jesus Christ" the character that fits in to the classification of mythical characters in all of the Mystery Religions of the surrounding areas - "Jesus" just being the Jewish interpretation of what Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia, etc.. also had. Jews were late to the party so they just copied almost exactly what the other cultures around them did. If you look at all the other mystery religions of those regions and approximate timeframes, you will be shocked to see what appears to be a blatant rip-off of christianity, except, all those other religions came first.. Sorry.

She thinks Religion is what God is or wants ,

Hope you don't mind me butting in. Repentance is the realization that we have failed in our mission to live the way God designed us to and have rejected him. Repentance happens naturally and cannot be forced. When you truly accept that Christ is who he said he was, it happens. The Holy Spirit convicts us of our sins and we feel it and want to stop. You may hear some people say repentance means to stop sinning and never doing it again. Although you will get a new heart that wants to please God and stop sinning, we can never be perfect in our behavior. That is why Christ suffered and died for us. He had to pay the cost for all our sin. But Christ is faithful in that if we confess our sins to Him, He will is faithful to forgive us. Hope that helps..

i understand you both :)

Be ye perfect... as our Lord is perfect. It is imperative that we change.

"Evolution" is far too drastic a term. I'd settle on Adaptation.

@@fredpickles5655 action speaks much louder than words. Repent and help those that you victimized

I think you tube upload quality changed.

Not looking good for a pastor to have those expensive cameras around students? Huh? Are you kidding me? I've heard some dumb things in my time but come on. So it's ok for everyone else to have expensive camera's EXCEPT a "pastor"? You're telling me that pastors should use cheap technology at all times, especially when speaking at public and private universities? Come on man!

You're welcome. Judging a pastor by the price of his camera's is silly and trivial given the fact that these video's reach millions of people. Btw, I have nothing against you, but my name is Daniel, not "Dan".

My apologies! I am sincerely sorry!

You're a good man.

Exactly!

I know a bit about the United Methodist Church in the USA having married a young woman about this girl’s age when I graduated from college. Methodists don’t believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, and now they believe it contains contradictions and errors. They teach hell & Satan are concepts or analogies to convey the difference between right & wrong, good & evil. They intertwine Evolution & Deep Time with Christianity, and develop what I would consider a False Gospel. Jesus is taught to have been a highly “evolved” and enlightened teacher, and certainly not God, born of a Virgin. This runs contrary to the gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Therefore, it is not surprising how this young woman has turned away from a false religion.

Methodist church isn't a sound doctrine church . Most of the Western Christians stopped teaching the kids about gospel where as we in Asian Christians are persecuted for following Christ and we are more strong in Christ than we ever now. We take Jesus Christ more seriously than anything in life.
