I don't know... I am not convinced you should hate them.... Saint Paul was hating on the God of the Jews when he was persecuting the Church, not knowing that the God of the Church is the his God actually... when he was doing all this wasn't he blaspheming God's name... but somehow God didn't hate him. Plus the Saints are not all in agreement here... Saint Paisios says that the devil knows God loves him, but he acts like a sociopath trying to force Gods's hand...

The West is fake and gae.

Well what is your counter argument to referencing the early christian church? There is no way that any Christian was going to be trying to physically respond to blasphemy against Christ because it was illegal to be a Christian. Most of us in the western world are under secular authority which forbids any kind of retaliation against evil. This is why I don’t know that your recommendation is feasible or even what Christ would command us to do given that He did not command the early church to do

hi jeemy

G-d and pictures have nothing to do together.

Right but there’s no christian state so there will be no resolve even so

Jeem should make videos in Arabic lowkey just thought of that

I remember standing in the same place during the intro

Loving your enemies doesn’t mean being a doormat. Well presented, thank you Jeem. Holy Maccabees, pray for us in the Courts of Christ.

I think the Muslim part has to do with people saying Muslims would attack back or something, or how they care about Jesus more which obviously ain’t the case. Then there’s Ryan Garcia who was talking about trans going to hell

Blessings brother, may the prayers of Pope Shenouda III be with us all.

You are trying way too much to make it so that Christianity is like Judaism. Way too much. You don't seem to understand that the law of the Old Testament was a RAW law, people couldn't handle it and that's why they turned into self-righteous sociopaths. That's why they killed people with stones, not understanding that they should have been on a continuous repentance in front of God. They didn't understand that in order to be righteous in front of God when taking the life of another human being, you have to be at a certain level of holiness. A level of holiness that God could give you the power to take the life out and put it back in the unrighteous without having to touch them. So, in conclusion, a proper response as you call it can only come out of loving God above everything and out of suffering for seeing God being offended and not being able to take it. If you're doing it because you hate somebody for not being as “righteous” as you, that is the wrong approach. You need to learn more about Orthodoxy. I don't know if you're a Romano-Catholic or an Orthodox. I saw another video where you were talking about Orthodoxy..

The war in the Old Testament was fought on the outside. The war of the New Testament is fought on the inside FIRST. "You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of a cup, and then the outside will also be clean." - Matthew 23:26 If you're not clean enough on the inside, you will not have enough love directed at God so that you will do something against those who are offending God.

Algorithm boost.

utterly disgusting what the paris olympics did. I absolutely do not tolerate this behaviour, we cannot love God's enemies. Thanks, jeem!

Do the "enemies of God" include people who advocate for their own religious views? For example if a Muslim or Roman Catholic or Copt were to promote their viewpoints at the expense of Eastern Orthodoxy would they in your eyes be considered enemies of God? I am guessing this only applies if they know something is true and still try to push back against it?

I don’t see that there was any kind of response from the Christians in France yet. They should have at least occupied the Square in which the Blasphemy took place and stayed there.

Good to see Chiraq in the beginning and at the end.

Couldn't agree more, keep up the good work, also leave smoking 💯💯💯

The Olympic tableau was a parody of a parody, a Flemish painting called the Feast Of The Gods. That subject, a parody of the Mystical Supper goes back to Titian. The French Olympic committee made a very humorous celebration that refers to French culture, which has a complicated relationship to Catholicism. Americans should not pretend they understand the visual language of the French.

St. Philotheos Zervakos in his Paternal Councils said that it is not good to tolerate blasphemy, calling blasphemers lower than beasts. He said that not only should governments not tolerate it, but we should also aim to correct blasphemers and tell them that blasphemy is a sin.

Much heretical theology and proliferation of evil stems from people pridefully thinking they are more merciful and loving than God.

So if present we should take the Maccabean approach?

Jeem keeps consistently being one of the best Christian commentators on KZfaq.

Modern Christianity tends to forget this concept so thank you Jeem for this video

idk man saying God isnt omnibelovelant sounds erroneous but everything else is pretty fine tbh

Very well said, sir!

I disagree with the notion that God is not omnibenevolent. God is all good, people just don't know what good means.

I wonder if Andrew Tate will see this

Olympics is so useless

Based Jeem back at it again. Hope you get well.

Nor are we able to say that the love of the Creator is diminished towards those rational beings who have become demons as a result of their demonic action, and is any less than the fulness of love which He has towards those who remain in the angelic state; or that it is less for sinners than for those who are justly named righteous. This is because the divine Nature is not affected by what happens and by opposition, nor does there spring up within it any causal stirring which takes its origin from creation, and which is not to be found with Him from eternity; not does He have a kind of love which originates as a result of events which take place in time. Rather, everyone has a single place in His purpose in the ranking of love, corresponding to the form He beheld in them before He created them and all the rest of created beings, that is, at the time before the eternal purpose for the delineation of the world was put into effect. For it was not with an adventitious love that He had, without any beginning, the stirring that initiated the establishment of the world. He has a single ranking of com­plete and impassible love towards everyone, and He has a single caring concern for those who have fallen, just as much as for those who have not fallen. And it is clear that He does not abandon them the moment they fall, and that demons will not remain in their demonic state, and sinners will not remain in their sins; rather, He is going to bring them to a single equal state of perfection in relationship to His own Being-in a state in which the holy angels are now, in perfection of love and a passionless mind. He is going to bring them into that excellency of will, where it will not be as though they were curbed and not [free], or having stirrings from the Opponent then; rather, they will be in a state of excelling knowledge, with a mind made mature in the stirrings which partake of the divine outpouring which the blessed Creator is preparing in His grace; they will be perfected in love for Him, with a perfect mind which is above any aberration in all its stirrings. (Isaac the Syrian, second Part II.40.2-4)

What do you mean by "physical aggression"? Do you mean delivering justice in a physical manner in a judicial setting, or starting an attack/war against those enemies? And, within that, are you implying death or pain when you say "physical aggression"?

Christianity is a cult.

Let's go! ☦️☦️

Bump.

KZfaq won't let me comment what I want :/

"But the Lord laughs at the wicked, as he knows their time is coming" Psalm 37:13

"Whoever is not with me is against me." - Matthew 12:30.

Preach it Brother Jeem!

Boycott Olympic sponsors and TV advertisers. Just do it. Share lists of companies to boycott online. Get to work.

Enemies means enemies. The early Christians went to their deaths rather than violently resist. Love doesn’t mean mindless tolerance though.

The Arabic that I used in the thumbnail is actually not from the Old Testament at all, but is taken from an Eastern Christian commentary on regional legal rulings concerning blasphemy and its punishment.

Thought you were gonna say "Or is it Gay and Cringe" lmao

Touching a nerve. They don’t want their train of thought identified and subject to definition, critique and historical patterns of behavior. When the same line of aggressive criticism they levy at us is turned around on them: they fare far worse.
