Give Me An Answer with Stuart & Cliffe Knechtle

2 жыл бұрын

Program 3121 ................... - Object of Faith - Evidence Not Proof - Manuscript Evidence
The "Give Me An Answer" ministry began as an outgrowth of the dialogues Cliffe Knechtle has had with students on various university campuses throughout the United States. These universities include the University of Maine, Harvard, MIT, University of Florida, University of Texas, University of Wisconsin, University of Minnesota, University of California Los Angeles, University of California San Diego, Berkeley, Stanford, University of Hawaii and the University of Washington. Cliffe spoke on these campuses in front of the Student Union or Library at noon for five to ten minutes. At the close of his initial remarks, he'd open up the time for questions and answers, which usually turned into a two to four hour dialogue with students. His crowd size ranged from 25 - 500 students at a time, and between classes, new students would join the discussion. This is an extremely effective way to reach a large number of university students with the Gospel of Christ.

I was an atheist up until I turned 44. Bad mouthed Christians and lived a life of drinking and sex with whoever I wanted to. Then I became a follower of Christ after going to visit my Christian friend, although she hadn't told me she was a Christian when we became friends. Since then, I've seen God work in my life, give me a peace that I've always wanted and have prayers answered. He really does change your life and your way of looking at life. I never thought I would have opened my heart and mind to know God but it has been the best decision of my life. It's not an easy life I've led but having that personal relationship with Him, I know that He will make it easier to deal with.

@@Jonas-gl9ke I reluctantly became a Christian, not to obtain any benefits, I didn’t know there were any, but instead I did it to please God, although in the end He had push me into it. I never actually realised that this was the life I wanted. However the major benefits I obtained, such as gaining peace, resulted not from joining some club. I began to inexplicably change on the inside. I looked the same on the outside but inwardly I was turning into a new creature. And the complete recognition that this was the work of God, was such a confirmation to me, that I came under great conviction, of the reality of the intervention of God into my life. So much so that I became a very zealous new Christian. Belonging to any good club or religion has the potential to somewhat improve the life of its members. But the new life of the born again believer, is such, that it cannot be compared to anything else.

We are not judge and jury, especially as we remember the unbelievers that we used to be. However like Paul the apostle, we too can be thinkers, can’t we. The young man with the handsome ears and the red and white T-shirt said he lost his faith. Will he ever regain it? Time will tell. But currently he is snared by atheism. If God knows that he can be converted then God will see to it. But if he goes all the way to the grave as an unconverted soul, it’ll be because God didn’t intervene. And without God’s intervention theres no conversion. However God will only convert those who have that unknown desire, to be converted. Paul had this desire but was unaware of it. Therefore we give everyone a fair shake, don’t we. Why? Because we don’t know who is who. We don’t know who God has chosen.

Great answer Cliffe you have to point out the fact that people only find Truth in seeking after answers to what The Truth is. AMEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST OUR LORD 🙏❤️. I really enjoy and appreciate your Christ centered Scripturally accurate content it really shows how ignorant millions to billions of people are about The Truth of reality Christianity, Atheism and non Christian religions. This has nothing to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't. I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict. Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers. Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word. Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.

It is amazing how people lack in the understanding of the existance of God. All you have to do to believe in the existence of God is try to make something God made. Try to make dirt, or a tree. Try to make a fish, or any animal for that matter. Make something from nothing? What about the air that you breathe? 🤔 There are billions of stars, make one of those.. God doesn't need anyone to convince him that he exists. If you can't look around and see his existence in everything, you need read your Bible and prove your irrational Intel. ✌

Paul the apostle was always a thinker even before his great conversion. But because he was feeding error into his thinking apparatus he was making bad judgments calls. And even though he would have known, via common knowledge, that Jesus was a just man, nevertheless he thought he was a blasphemer. Paul wanted to preserve Judaism at all costs, hence he was rooting out this sect that could damage it. And although he eventually became adept at reasoning with the Jews, in the synagogue, it’s unlikely that anyone could have reasoned with him, before his conversion. Such was his zeal. He had heard Stevan’s speech before he got stoned to death. And he was aware that the believers were humble good people. But it didn’t matter a jot to him because they were the enemy of Judaism . That’s where the buck stopped. He was a hard head. Presumably some of the believers prayed for his conversion, and the miracle happened. When all else fails, pray.

That is absolutely true. The dead sea scrolls proved the OT was not changed to fit the NT after the fact. The OT lays out some incredibly specific prophecies about when Jesus would be born, what HE would do, What he would preach, how he would be betrayed and crucified, WHO would crucify Him and WHO would destroyed Israel after the crucifixion. Just as one example the OT predicted ROME would follow Greece, and ROME would crucify Jesus, and ROME would destroy Israel after the crucifixion. This was written centuries before the birth of Christ are the rise of the Roman Empire. It even predicted Rome would have 2 "legs" to its empire, which it did. Eastern and western Rome, as well as Pagan Rome and "Christian" Rome.

I find it fascinating that I can appreciate people like the young man who wants to make the world a better place. For me, I live to study about the human being. The human being has potential to be like a god with powers of observation skills, powers to influence others in either positive or negative ways and ultimately to be of service to our modern day confusion of what is life’s purpose. For me, God is evident in all things of creation. People may not agree with me but I am happy to be in a world where I can follow a path of living based on Jesus’ teachings. The more we learn about appreciating the simplicity of life and why our world has constant disputes about everything then I can become a simple observer and avoid strife and stress produced by people who tend to follow others without finding fulfillment of peace and joyful living. If this is religious, then religion helps me to discern between righteousness and evilness. I did not create the world but can and do co-create as a gardener, songwriter or carpenter. I love the One true God that Jesus Christ calls “our father who art in heaven”.

Yes, I agree. I also think the conviction you get after hearing the Truth spoken by Jesus, that you can’t live with that intellectual dishonesty. It will fight you at the core, and then your faced with the decision to change your ways according to what Jesus commands, or continue living with the decision you don’t want God and his rules or Jesus and his rules

Then hears their questions, and talks to them on an intellectual level, giving respects to these people. He is an person who took the time to question different ideas and theologies, and due the evidence about Jesus he has made the ultimate decision speak to people who are not secure in there faith to answer question they would not get answers to in their loco community.

@@jackalsgate1146, agree to disagree. There is objective truth as cliff was trying to get at. How do know how to interact with each other then? Everyone would say stealing is wrong and the item stolen from another needs to be returned. Another example would be that everyone deserves the right to live without being attacked or murdered. The list can go on and on, but if dig deep enough there is a set of expectations that everyone subconsciously agrees on. There is a rule book that everyone agrees upon what is acceptable behavior and what's not in any given society in much the same way teams playing sports agree on the rules of the game beforehand, then play the game without changing those rules. A game without rules is not a game in the same way as no laws or expectations set forth by society at large. The only thing left to discuss then where does this source come from. I would have to say it's the moral code of the Bible. This was at least the standard we had when this country was first being formed. Why do anything then if there were no expectations to do good or evil, and how would we be able to define good and evil in the first place? We could be doing alot of activity in our lives, but how do we know what we are doing is for the better or worse? I am not getting at that you do things to be recognized, but there are other reasons why we do what we do. What's your reason? My is to share the gospel message of Jesus Christ and live in a way that would honor the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.

But why is it that the atheist will take the time to make the argument that God doesn’t exist. It’s because they know he does exist. The Bible says in Romans 1 everyone knows that God exist and there without excuse. Romans 1:18-21 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

One good thing to say that you can use, Ray Comfort uses often, the evidence for God is simple. Obviously there's manuscript, historical, archeological, prophetic, and eye witness. But the evidence there is a builder of a building is the building itself. You dont have to know him/them, they don't have to be alive, documented, photographed anything. The fact the building is there proves there is a builder. Same thing with a painting and a painter. You could extend this to many things. But next you can extend this to creation. The evidence there is a creator is creation. All the miraculous things. Like a human eye for example, 137 million light sensitive cells. How could it have evolved over time if each part of the eye is a necessary part of the other. It's all intricately crested and designed. Plus nothing can't create something. The fact that something exists at all compared to nothing is evidence of God. Energy cannot be created or destroyed yet simultaneously time space and matter came into existence from nothing. Then add in intelligent design argument, and fine tuning, the evidence for God is basically undeniable with everything else. You should hit more prophetic evidence. Because the fact things come true thousands of years later is evidence of the truth that Jesus is manifest in the flesh. Like the dead sea becoming fresh after thousands of years. 90m under the surface there are underwater fissures letting in fresh groundwater causing the surrounding crater to be teaming with microbial life. It's biblical. Plus many other things. Jewish people got their land back. The white horse. All the end time signs. Plus just the messianic prophecies Jesus fulfilled with his birth, life, death, and Resurrection. He fulfilled hundreds. Over 300 at least. These things also testify to the truth. And the spirit of Jesus is the spirit of truth and prophecy. So I think it could help. But I'm loving watching you share the word. Thank you and I'm glad I found your videos. God bless you for sharing the truth.

Jesus is talking with Satan on a high mountain.. who witnessed such an event? Which mountain were they on that they could see all the kingdoms? .. even if they were stood on Mount Everest they would only be able to see for 100 miles or so on a clear day... they wouldnt be able to see other continents.. the people who wrote the gospels weren't even aware of places like America or Australia.

Not to say that it hasn't happened or couldn't happen, people do become Christians all the time, but it's far more likely that people lose their faith when they enter higher education, and are exposed to scientific education where we have good solid answers to many of the questions that people in the past attributed to a God. Jesse, would you say that Christianity is on the rise in America? I know for an absolute almost certain fact that you are going to mock and scoff at this reply.

As an Atheist, my “life’s meaning” is multi faceted; I live to be healthy and happy with as level a “playing field” as is available to me. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Our forefathers were so damn smart. My “driving force” isn’t God. It’s my survival instinct. And being a cognitive, human I am aware of things like television and automobiles (among countless other things) that I derive happiness from, beyond the need to eat, drink, etc that come from the instinctual nature of my being. It’s that simple. What’s, “right”/“wrong” and what others think is a completely different topic. Yes, you can be Hitler. Yes, you can be Mother Teresa. Your opinion of either has no effect on their perspective of their own life and what was important (worth living) to them. I think the kid had a lot of good points and was probably frustrated that he couldn’t have an honest discussion with someone who couldn’t put away his boner for God. 🤷🏻‍♂️ You don’t need God to have these discussions.

Because he is Love and he made us not because he had to, but he wanted to SHARE that Love with us. Just like how when something good happens to us we long to share it with someone else. God is love, so anything to goes against him is the opposite. He defines what is good and what is not. I used to be atheist and God completely changed me and opened my eyes to the truth four years ago. The Bible is the only prophetic book in the world that has been 100% clear and accurate. The evidence for the truth of Jesus is outstanding and undeniable. Try and disprove the Bible yourself, you can’t. But you can try. It’s willful ignorance to deny the existence of God as he has made himself known throughout the entire universe. It all points to having a creator. And the Bible lays it all out perfectly.

@@Javry4real I really don’t know where to start. I’m not a drug addict or alcoholic. I’m a guy that believes no gods exist. Doesn’t mean I’m a wreck. You’d know this if you had really been an Atheist. Unless your Atheism was not due to skepticism (ie you proclaimed yourself an Atheist to your parents as a form of rebellion or something…)? You don’t have to lie to try and make your argument seem legit. As to everything else…pretty standard response. “God is love”, “we can’t have morals without him” and all that. Of course, you’re completely wrong in everything you say…but I get as long as you stick to the script, reinforce your faith with weekly visits to a place where everyone thinks like you and refrain from reading the Bible in its entirety…yep, you’ll probably always believe you’ve got it figured out 😇

He made a lot of sense to me, but heh, i would say that as a non believer. I get that Cliffe 100% believes in Christianity, he talked a lot about the evidence for Jesus, but in reality, the evidence for Jesus is nowhere near as strong as he'd like to think. Not a single person actually wrote a thing about Jesus while he lived, everything written about Jesus was written decades after he died. That's a fact. Even Pauls letters were written about 20 years or so after the life and time of Jesus.

@@bonnie43uk in regards to the rest of what you said you may as well throw everything in history out before video was invented. History nor evidence works that way you mentioned. I’m not making a claim of Christianity so please leave your ad hominem elsewhere. You cannot prove not a single person wrote anything whilst he lived, besides we only know the completed works are dated as early as 20 years ish but from what you said you may believe any in the us true before the invention of photography or TV maybe, it’s hard to follow your pick and choose logic. You may as well believe Jesus didn’t exist which perhaps that’s your position which would probably make sense from your faith position. Pretty much the only way I can make sense of what you said as one cannot use logic from your statements.

Fact: Nearly every 20 something on the planet has ideals to "make the world a better place". In actuality, less than 1% of those actually do. And it's not really their fault, it's just that they get married, have a career, children and find that life is consuming enough.

Without God, morality is irrelevant. Your bad could be somebody else's good and vice-versa. This kid keeps talking about making the world better, but like Cliffe said, "Under who's standards?" The problem with this kid is that he thinks he's a good person, but Jesus says,"There is none good but One, that is, God."

Cliffe says "according to Camus" but that wasn't the debate and apparently not how the kid felt. The kid answered you Cliffe, he said "Why WOULD I commit suicide"? Cliffe says "IT's scary". What is scary is the fact that Cliffe really believes he is answering the guys question when he isn't. Why can't someone live to just live? You work, you raise a family, you do things. That is a life. The more I listen to Cliffe, the less I think there is a God.

There's over 4,000 religions on Earth. Each religion quotes a similar John 3:16 in THEIR similar bible. 4000 religions talk about God and each similar Bible has a different similar Jesus. Each religion thinks the other religion going to hell. Let's imagine there is no religion. Does that mean God will not talk to us?? God put us all here on Earth, even the gentiles or the so-called unbelievers. Every one of us has a reason from God why we are here. We can quote scripture all day long from all the different Bibles out there in the world and all the similar Bibles out there in the world and none can not tell us God's true intentions. I've been told Faith and Hope is what I need. Why do I need faith and hope when I believe in God. I believe majority of religious people have put religion before God and not God before religion. I look around me everyday and see who are truly lost. I see many religious and non-religious people lost. Connecting directly with God is the answer. It's a relationship where it's nobody's business but yourself and God. I do not fear God because I know God loves me.
