The world says death is a natural part of life, but as a Christian I know it was never meant to happen, I think this is part of the reason it hurts so badly when we lose a loved one, death isn’t natural or normal. King Jesus conquered death, and now we are not permanently separated from our Father.

Hey Joel. My wife and I were just listening to your book The Hidden Peace. We were caught off guard by the testimony in chapter 2. Our son is 4 and we are living that out right now. We've had all the same experiences and have felt the fear and the peace of God in those moments. It's not been easy but there has been peace. Thank you for sharing about that. My wife and I were literally crying listening to you tell the moments that we have experienced with our son Joshua. I'm trying not to spoil the book here in the comments. We've never heard anyone else share that they had the same experiences. We are just kinda reeling ourselves in after listening. Our faith has grown in this season and even led us deeper into ministry roles. God has been so good in the midst of the trials. We still don't know how things will play out but we've seen the Lord move in this.

So, the so called feast of the gods was a festival in the name of Dionysus back in ancient greece, where they would eat, drink damce around etc. Then come along christianity. You guys have to understand that before christianity, the religion of rome was that of greece, aside from some minor differences. In the process of converting the nations under the roman empire, many stories of the roman mythos were adapted to christianity. This is a common practice, take for example the "saint'ification" of the deities from african religions during slavery. So now we have a major religion that assimilated countless stories as a tactic to make itself more digestible. Then comes the Renaissance and the "Last Supper", based on one of the christian stories that may or may not have been assimilated from elsewhere during the expansion period. The Renaissance btw was a period that took heavy inspiration from greek art and stories. Then, 200 or so years later another painting is made about that old festival, taking clear inspiration from the last supper painting because that's what art is about So, now you have an old tradition being "revived" by a portrayal that takes inspiration from a pretty significant religious painting. So when they made the research for that stage performance, guess what visual they had for it? (Also, interesting fact: the person with a halo in the performance is apollo, who's represente with a halo in the painting because he's the god of the sun.)

The desire to be led and or worship is so strong in our nature that instead of turning to the living God, we rather have someone, we deem fit, to rule over us. Our current times are no different…society is trenched in rallying behind a “savior” figure to give them what they desire, but it always falls short. True freedom & purpose can only be found in our loving creator.

I'd say we have more. Considering that we have survived despite the loving attempts to wipe us out. Being a minority religion gets tricky. The majority isn't very: kind. Loving. Accepting. Understanding. I'd recommend reading more on Baccus and what he stood for. If you don't believe "demons" come through pages, that is. If you do, avoid it. Wouldn't wanna scare you.

Most of the last supper painting dont have exactily 12 either tbh if you actually count though there wasnt actually exactily 12 in the art piece itself. In fact even the halo itself only appears in later additions of the last supper partly because it was more associated with Renaissance style depections of gods. Tough christisns first used it in the 4th century and orthodox paintings often utilizing that, it was prior to that associated with the different greek gods including apollo as well as different heros. Also en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Festin_des_dieux Is the one mist are trying to refer to. In the end though, checking in with how my relatives in norway felt, this feels less like a christian issue as it does an american issue

Thank u brother. I think when jesus spoke that jezebel woman, he didn't mean that was the spirit of jezebel the queen who was married to that Jewish king. But it is possible that the same entity or entities that dominated that first jezebel did the same for the woman in Revelation. And it continues to do so. I would say that the main traits are manipulation through sex of the partner, disregarding of sexual morality in general, spiritual prostitution like , the person will be idolatry to everything that mighty bring benefit or compensation.

She's a lovely 70-year-old French woman who loves Jesus and just has an unfortunate name. There have been parents giving children unfortunate names since time began. I know the argument is 'Revelation is just symbolism', but seriously. The woman could be legit named Jezebel.

If you marry your mother then your mother is going to tell you what to do, or rule over you, and this is what it means to have a Jezebel spirit, which is a woman trying to rule over or boss a man.

Never stated otherwise- another strawman. Look up the two main differences between catholics and protestants. One of them is symbolism present in Da Vinci's work. It is THE Christian depiction and showing other gods in this way is a direct reference, yet of an old pantheon. It also serves no purpose to replicate art depicting a wedding, and a scorned Eris and Dyonisos in the middle, who is a God of feasts and debauchery, yet the Olympic games are dedicated to Zeus. The intent is clearly stated, but you choose to aid deception that makes no sense.

And it's frankly disgusting to try to conflate the widespread child abuse in churches to what is, at best, a lukewarm criticism of Christianity. You claim both are important but you've already made multiple videos on this topic that's already being talked about to death, and as far as I can tell you haven't made ONE video discussing any of the countless horrific acts of abuse committed in your churches. You are one of the few Christian channels that are even comfortable talking about things like that when so many others would rather sweep it under the rug.

The moment your enemy can claim to be one of you and thought to be equal to you by the general public, you have already lost. Christians are defined in the Holy Scriptures as those who not only call Jesus Lord, but accordingly follow his commands. While it is true that Christians do stumble, that is not the same as "countless horrific acts of abuse." You don't get to point at someone who has infiltrated a church and is clearly not a Christian and say that they are. You also don't get to pretend that Christians are supposed to police our own while using the strong arm of the government to ENSURE that we CAN'T police our own. While I feel for everyone that has been abused, whether by a pretend Christian or anyone else, I can only deal with those whom I interact with and the same is true for every other Christian. Most people in the Western Church don't even read their own holy book anymore and have convinced others that being a Christian is showing up to a building once a week and performing certain prayers. This is a lie from the pit of hell. It is dangerous to both those within and those without the church. The minute we stop judging individuals and start trying to lump each other into categories based on race or religion we will end up with another tragedy like the one that started on September 1, 1939.
