The difference between Dr. Brown and Brandan is that Dr. Brown tries to express what the Bible says, but Brandan tries to show us his desires in the bible.

This is for everyone who believes Brandon is correct. Romans 16:17-18 I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive

I do not agree with everything Michael Brown teaches, but I must say, he most certainly did his homework and refuted all of the arguments Brandon used against Jeff and James

"Are adultery and bestiality only wrong in terms of idolatrous practice?" That destroys Brandan's argument, even if it won't convince him.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, and wanting their ears tickled they will accumulate teachers in accordance with their own desires and turn their ears away from the truth and towards a myth

Next time someone asks me the definition of cherry picking, I’m going to give them Brandan’s name.

Dr Brown well done! And I love the respect that was shown.

And another thing, Brandon doesn’t understand the relationship between a husband and a wife is a picture of the bride of Christ the church

Jesus said many will say to me on that day. Jesus said, “Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’” (Matthew 7:23). This will be Brandon if he does not repent.

Romans 1:22. Professing themselves to be wise they became FOOLS!!!!

The apostle Paul writes, my preaching and teaching were not with enticing words, but a demonstration of the Spirit’s power. Words are not enough! Lord we need your power. We need you!

The reason why all sexual immorality is idolatry, is because Yahweh's only normative form of sexuality is found in Genesis 2:24 "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh."

Dr Brown: Verses, verses, verses, biblically sound and accurate. Brandan: Love me, love me, very cleverly and conveniently wrong deceit and depraved in his own arguments, not a single verse, so the Bible is not his authority but his "new" revelation of the "truth"

Wow denial or what he 'll face the Lord Jesus one day let him argue his way out of his sin and face kingdom authority I hope he finds the truth Amen.

One thing this video has reminded me of… the apostle Paul writes, my teaching and preaching were not with enticing words but a demonstration of the Spirit’s power. Words are not enough. Time to seek the Lord more…

a sinful nature is our identity, Brandan. An identity that God is making new through the process of sanctification. Being white is a part of your identity that God doesn't ask you to change because it's an accidental, amoral quality. Homosexual desires may be a part of your identity, just like heterosexual desires are part of 99% of heterosexual male identity. However, what we do with our desires is the issue. Lustful desires, outside of the bonds of marriage (see Gen. 2:24 for a definition of marriage), and especially physical sexual encounters outside of marriage, are something we are expected to deny. Jesus said, "if your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out!" This is a clear statement prohibiting sexual immorality, regardless of our identity as heterosexual or homosexual. In fact, Brandan, this is a clear example of Jesus commanding us to "deny our identity," when that identity is sinful.

There certainly are LGBT people who claim to be, or who believe they are Christains! But there is no much a person who is a LGBT Christian. We are commanded to repent, turn from our sin, and sin no more!

We need that clock in every debate !!

When Paul ( mentioning homosexuality) says that it's wrong in the eyes of God he says clearly that in the beginning God's intention when he created man was for him to have a female companion and that anything else besides that it would be a pervertion of God's design. In the beginning God created man and woman because he had a plan for them and Paul clearly stated that plan.Christ then said "Man will then find a suitable female and leave his father and mother to form a family of his own", that's God's way but this perverted young man wants to change God's ways and original plan to suit his own ways which are motivated by his own feelings and carnal desires!. The act of homosexuality in itself is pervertion and sinful independently on the context which is performed, if this lost gay pastor can not see the difference it is because he is not allowing the word of God to speak😢😢😢

Dr. Michael Brown did a beautiful job of using the Word of God to prove that homosexuality is a sin that comdemns these sinners.

Dr Brown is an inspiration. I love his gracious heart and gentle, but firm, approach. I also appreciate Brandon’s good nature and openness to discussion. Brandon’s opening statement: Jesus is pro-people, therefore pro-everything 😂

Jesus didn’t come into the world to condemn but to save (John 3:17). Just because He didn’t condemn homosexuality it doesn’t mean He agreed with it. Repeatedly Jesus said to sinners: go and sin no more

This was a much better debate, as opposed to his debate v James White and Jeff Durbin. Michael Brown allowed space for both positions to be stated clearly and thank God he did! When Brandon's position is stated clearly you can see how frail it is. It is not based on Scripture. He appeals to those with itching ears and man is he a dangerous person to bear the title of Christian. Is he saved? God knows. But he is certainly indulging his sinful passions and claiming that to be a good thing, so I have significant doubts. Praise the Lord for Michael Brown and may God have mercy on Brandon and lead him to the true knowledge regarding his sin.

Brandan is luke cold 🥶

Well folks, no matter how hard it is to except and/or explain accordingly to the unadulterated word of God it's wrong and He sent is son Jesus to die us all, no matter what we all need a Saviour am I'm thankful for that in struggling with homosexuality. So, I've to believe God until I'm completely delivered and set free. Thank God I didn't or don't believe that lifestyle is right now matter even through birth❤

Jesus did mention sexual immorality in Mark 7:20-23. Then the question becomes are homosexual acts considered sexual immorality in Jewish tradition? The answer is 100% yes. It is very clear that the only moral choice in christianity is to marry one person of the opposite sex or remain celibate. At the same time I also want to say do not hate LGBT people, Jesus still loves them despite their sinful lifestyle and so should we.

Very good

DEAR MICHAEL, HELLO BROTHER! GREAT DEBATE! MICHAEL, I HAVE SEEN PEOPLE WHO GOT SAVED, AND THEN WENT THROUGH DELIEVERANCE FROM THE GAY SPIRIT AND IT WAS CLEARLY A STRONG SPIRIT AS I SAW IT BATTLING VERY HARD TO STAY IN THE MAN THAT WAS BEING DELIEVERED. IT IS CLEAR TO ME THAT GOD MADE MALE AND FEMALE TO BE TO GATHER AND ANYTHING OTHER WISE IS NOT HIS DESIGN OR WILL. I DO BELEIVE THAT GOD LOVES THOSE THAT ARE TRYING TO GAY, BUT I ALSO BELIEVE THAT GOD LOVES THE PERSON, BUT HATES THE SIN.

Well, Brandon‘s already mistaken already he said Jesus never denied anyone following him that wanted to follow him and that’s a lie right there. There was a guy that came up to him said I’ll follow you wherever you go and he said foxes have holes birds have nest, but the sun man has nowhere to lay his head. He walked away and the demon possessed manafter Jesus cast out the demon he wanted to follow him and he said no go back and tell everybody what God has done for you. He did that with the blind man too. That wanted to follow him so Brandon is already starting off on the wrong foot.

1. The guy may be a reverend on paper but is he according to the Truth in the Word of God. 2. It doesn’t matter what we as Christian’s “think” is sin and is not. What matters is what God says sin is.

The practice of same sex relationship is sinful and is condemned in the scriptures. We need to repent of all sin .

listening to brendon makes me sick

Why give this man a platform!

you don't argue with the diablo, you cast it out

Good debate, I would use Romans 16:17-18 for Brandon… going to be praying for him

Brandon misses that the eunuchs were not that way by choice. They were forcefully castrated. And it had nothing to do with their own feelings of sexuality, it was because they were slaves and had no choice. A eunuch could have felt desires for men or for women, the castration had nothing to do with what those desires were or were not, so I don’t find this a very compelling comparison to homosexuals.

How can anyone believe that God would affirm homosexual actions? Are such actions good? Are they beautiful? How are they important? What purpose do they serve?

Oh Brandon you have lost this debate

Is eternal life eternal? Does God transformed the heart? Do those in the vine produce fruit? Does God prune those in the vine? Are we regarded as sons for correction? Can the redeemed, from the heart, curse Jesus? Does God cause us to walk in his rules and statutes? By Faith do we have peace with God in Christ? Is god so weak that the will in men is able to overcome him? Or is god so powerful that he is able to keep you from stumbling? Is our perceived “will” bestowed supernatural power to resist God? And if so, where did this power come from in the new covenant? Does God Bring the redeemed to completion? Can anyone come to Jesus outside of the biblically explicit draw of God? Does Christ lose any that God gives him? What is eternal life according to scripture? What is God’s truth according to Jesus?

Jesus the same yesterday today forever the same if it detestable to God and Jesus is God. Your answer is there. Any relationship can become an idol. If God said I don't want you to be with this person FULL STOP, we have obey. Holding on to any relationship IF your love for it is above the love of the LORD there is a problem Why try to turn pizza hut into macdonald's Pls if you want to live your live anyhow then do that You are not following Christ you are following your flesh You can't do what you want and follow Christ You have to repent, pride is my will be done not God's.

The real question is Brandon if Homosexuality is against God's will will you abstain from those kind of relationships?

Same sex marriage was a debate/conversation in the 1st century? Lol..

What about 1Corinthians 6-9.

8:12 - well, where are they? Can we talk to them directly?

talk about an argument from silence! Brandan, you literally argued that Jesus never condemned homosexuality, therefore it's not sin. yikes, bro!

This is the most ridiculous debate ever.

Typical Brandan...He states his false premise on the Bible...has it obliterated by people who actually know the Bible and then he just keeps re-stating the premise exactly the same way as if this time it will make sense. I've seen him do this with multiple different Christian apologists. He thinks his charm and confident demeanor will cover up the fact that his arguments just don't hold water. But unfortunately, he tells a lot of people exactly what they want to hear so no matter how much he gets hung out to dry in these debates, he just keeps saying it over and over. Even if the building were to be struck by LIGHTNING when he was mid sentence...He still won't take the hint and repent. I'll continue to pray for his soul. ps...He claims that nowhere does the Bible tell him to deny who he is. Matt 16:24 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me".

Brandon is an antagonist of the faith…. He has made the scriptures in his image, not according to the word of God. So yes he has made it into idolatry. I pray that he repents… if not he should be SHUT DOWN.. if he continues to purport this lie, many people will believe it. He WILL answer to GOD for himself… so sad!

Lord God stir Brandan, take the scales let Him see Your heart, Your truth humble him that he may come to admit & repent so You can transform him

Brandon, would you condone sex between two same sex people outside of marriage?

The Bible was created for the people, in a way that it was perfectly written by God to cater for all times, so the premise that the laws are focused on idolatry or paganism is a long shot and as much as I want to be open minded I think that the concept is flawed. I believe the real contention is, for most gays is the idea that "they believe in Christ and trying to follow Christ just like anyone but there feeling of love for same gender becomes a question of morality". So they will try to find a soothing explanation that would make them gay and at the same time acceptable to Christ. The Bible speaks not about against being gay but sexual relationship of the same sex. However it would be hard to love someone in romantic sense and have not sexual experience. That is a very hard situation, that only Christ can deliver you from. An analogy but only for the purpose of demonstration, in the old days there are cannibals who thinks its normal to eat people, and then that cannibal suddenly learnt of Christ and wanted to be Christian. How can he manage to fight his urges in order to be with Christ. Very hard scenario if we put ourselves into there shoes. But the Bible si clear, we know what it means, AND Christ can deliver us from this dilemma if we trust in Him.

Almost every video I've seen this dude talking, he's always reading Satan's script

Brandon has no standing

Gross. The depth a person goes to justify homosexual lifestyle is disgusting.

Brandon is exhibit A for term called sophistry. The end.

This guy brandn removes the very authority of christ. If you look at what paul says in 1cor6 paul talks about Christ being the gead and we being part of his body. He also asks are we to use the body of chriat to merge with a prostitute? Then in vs 19,20 he says tgat our body is the the temple of the holyspirit (spirit of holiness ,holiness being seperate from the world). And we are not iurs but we are bought with a price and belong to God therefore both our body and spirit are God's. Now going with that analogy christ is the head of the church and he determines what happens with the body. He has already stated that the only form of marriage or relationship is the one stated as man and woman being one flesh. If you are truly a follower of Jesu you will take his words as truth and authority not what you "think" or" perceive" Christ has not become your lord so you are still living by yoir standards brandan. Whe christ becomes tour lord you will do and see things from his perspective. According to paul i we are going by his analogy thesame way he condemns relations with prostitutes as using christs body to engage in things that don't glorify God is thesame way you are using your bOdy which is God's to engage in homosexuality which is actually despising the head. Also,Mat4:4 says man shall not live by bread aline but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Meaning the way you order your kife is not by your appetites(whichwas fundamentally what the devil was tempting Jesus on) but on what God says is right...not what you feel or think is right brandon. Everything you are doin negates the authority of the Jesu you claim to follow. He may be your saviour but he is not yet your lord because if he was Leviticus 18 would also apply to you,.. i mean this God himself talking. And remember brandan all scipture is given to us for teaching,reproof,correction that you may stand perfect.. It says all brandan not the ones you agree with or you feel fit your narrative. The fact the were written by God the holyspirit through men Should make i your standard. We all struggle with lust of different kind our ability to acknowledge and go before the throne of grace to reçeive mercy and grace to overcome is what makes us fOLLowers of christ. I am inclined to women,i am sexually active(meaning i get turned on too by themand want to have relationship with them) but letting that control me and start sleeping with anything under he skirt and saying "this is just who i am" is wrong...if i am under the jurisdiction of the christ "i cant be christian and a womanizer/fornicator just like you can't be christian and gay. That is out of Gods order Also idolatry does not just endin worship of hand made gods it is also worship or giving your attention and your all to something or someone that is not God. Tgat is why scripture Says we should worshio him with all our strength mind and heart because he is aware we could do thesame thing to other things that are not God. Even yourself Self worship is idolatry Sex worship is idolatry Self Pleasure(masturbation,porn, fornication, homosexuality etc) seeking is idolatry. Idols are not only of the hands they are also of the heart and that one is the most dangerous Much love❤

So Dr. Brown said in a debate a long time ago with Bart Ehrman that he drives an old buick, basically lives very bare bones, has one jacket, etc. Goes to India to volunteer, etc. I believe he does some of that, but if you are going to brag, then be consistent. This is a beatuiful studio he has (he looks very healthy I think he is in his 80's) seems relaxed and carefree. But certainly his studio is a lot fancier than others. One minute I think he is sincere another minute he seems like a used car salesman. He is so much smarter than the average person, who knows what to believe. That's why I picked up on this. Is this studio consistent with his professed image? He wants this guy to turn from his sins but is he following Jesus and giving all his money away?

I wish it was ok to to be gay but it's does say it's a sin n old n new testament. Goes against God plan to multiple. I pray for all day n Trans to chose Jesus n ther flesh

Dr. Brown argues in the same way that the slave owners argued that slavery is acceptable to God. He holds his Bible as the Southern Baptist did in the South and says, "the Bible says slave serve your masters." The abolitionist held their Bible and said there is only one law and that is the Law of Love. Just read Charles Finney's theology book and you will see that Brandon is reasoning as Charles Finney. Their are several facts that were not brought up in the arguments. First, the list of sins that are a abomination include having sex with a women during her period. I have never seen a video or anyone who supports this verse. Maybe it was just a matter of cleanliness. The Mosaic Law does not say not to have sex with men. It says don't have sex with men as you have sex with women. Maybe that was because it was considered dirty. Also Paul gives the reason for people doing homosexual acts. God gave them over to homosexuality because they worshiped idols. That supports Brandon's position directly. Why would God give Brandon up to homosexuality if he was raised a Christian and serves as a pastor. On the other hand you could say the Dr. Brown would just apply Romans 9 to Brandon and say that God made all homosexuals to be vessels of destruction In order for him to show his power. This idea was supported by the Slave owners that their are people that God curses and hates and we do not need to apply the "love thy neighbor as thyself" to them. And finally Jesus says watch out for false prophets... by their fruit you will know them. It was denominations like the Congregationalist(UCC) that freed the slaves, it was the congregationalist(UCC) that led to women having a voice in churches and out society, It was congregational churches that led the civil right movement. And it was the congregationalist(UCC) that had the first gay ordained minister in their church. The Dr. Brown would still have slaves if it was not illegal because he follows his Bible as the Word of God instead of believing that Jesus is the Word of God.

Yes you can follow Christ - gay or not. If you truly accepted the Holy Spirit then let it guide you. Thats the only teacher.

Brandan you completely twist what the scriptures say and mislead people into thinking worldly sins are acceptable in God's kingdom. I pray whatever demon is possessing you and spreading your absolute lies leaves you and you find what it means to be a follower of Christ.

Thanks!
