It blows my mind that the name Adolf Hitler had to be bleeped on CZcams but yet I have heard people use the Lord's name in vain on CZcams and that's ok.
Further proof that Jesus is exactly who He said He is.
@michaelhenderson7739 Yep, when he said.....
If I speak of myself, I bear witness to a lie because I am nothing and can do nothing of myself....
The Christ on the other hand says Overcome the belief you aren't Divine Being and walk in the Kingdom of Heaven right here, right now!
The Christ is the act of Eternal Life living itself, and it takes place through the Receptivity of the Crucifixion of the False appearance of the Mortal Self separate and apart from God.
The Christ is ALWAYS ALIVE IN US, but we must be Alive to the Christ..
We are either awake to good and evil(matter/mortality), or we are Awake to Divine Perfection(Spirit).
When we are not attuned to Divine Consciousness, by default we are attuned to Mortal Consciousness!!
@@TAGtalkinaboutGod this is a lot of new age jargon. Let’s cut through all the mind games. You and I are not Christ. He is a separate being from you. We do not conjure up Christ consciousness within us. When we accept, believe in, trust in and rely upon Him totally for our salvation, we then received the gift of the Holy Spirit and are forgiven. Before that, we do not have any of Gods spirit within us. A few simple words to you. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved. Do not try to find the christ within you. That christ is antichrist and is from the evil one.
It’s just yutube - just one of dumbish, dopey wordly thing. What You expect? 😄
Says a lot doesn’t it😊
May Jesus be with you all that are reading this💗💗🙏🙏
If you’re with Christ you already know that He is..
And you God bless you also❤🙏✝️
Blasphemy
And you as well. 😊

Dude. Idk where are You from, what context are You from. But now - check this out: „Allah” is the word meaning „God” in English.
And here, in this channel You are not able to mess with anything that You want. We talking about God’s who exists. God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God which is described in Bible. He revealed His name to Moses and His people, Israel - and His Name is about YHWH, spelled most often „YaHWeH”. Which means firstly „One that fiercely loving”, second „Making to exist/live”, next „The One That Is Existing”. Jeshua met Him. Also parents of Samson. Also King David. King Salomon saw Him in his dream. Prophets saw Him in visions.
So don’t mess with us with any biased „Coran” writtings. Just try to understand what this video is about - stop trying press here Your religious beliefs.
Shalom 👋
Listen up Christians. God is on the minds of the lost. They're searching Google, searching for ☝️ Him. Pray, be bold and share the gospel!
That’s not how that works… No one seeks God.
@@thetimeninja2178 No that is Connection between (Sou)l with Spirit(God)
You need learn strong !!
@@thetimeninja2178 Yup, no one seeks after God. Literally a bible verse.
@@WasLostButNowAmFoundThis.
People search after the benefits that we know come from God. Not Hod Himself.
Good comment. Thanks.
You speak with such conviction... the words that you say really cuts right through my heart, i feel like crying, i just love that i see the truth now. I heard all these answers before but my mind refused it... thank you Holy Spirit for unveiling my eyes that I may see Jesus!
Thank you for this brother Tod ... i love that your channel is faithful in giving answers to most of my questions and clearly present everything biblically.
Im always refreshed after listening to your videos, and most of the time, it is something i needed to hear and be reminded of. I used to live in the US but i was exposed to tempatations there, too weak to flee away, and now im in my home country, restored my marriage and hubby and I are now faithfully serving God. Your channel has been a constant companion in learning more about God. And to be honest, i appreciate all that you share now that my heart is humble. Initially I found the words you say with arrogance... but it was just really my own arrogant heart that was resisting to be broken of my sin. Im glad i kept listening and kept praying and kept reading the Bible. Now i have the confidence in Christ redeeming work in my life. I have the joy of my salvation and the love of my Abba Father.
Thank you Lord!! 🙏
God bless you bro. Tod, your family, your ministry and may God protect you and keep you always 🙏
Wonderfully said. Praise the Lord ❤️
So glad to hear this! Praise God for giving you His grace and raising you from the dead through the person and work of Jesus Christ!❤
Justice and the Justifier. Only repentance and faith matter...everything righteous flows from that.
Thank You pastor Todd, Thank You.
Does Todd is pastor? 🤔
The best answer to anything "why?" in regards to God is... "why not?" He's God.
It's not really the best answer to everything that starts with "why" in regards to God, because He does things for a purpose, and the "whys" are usually explained in the Bible. The "why not, He's God" answer is intellectually and biblically lazy. If a professing Christian can't answer those questions with the Bible, then it's a sure sign that either (1) they're not really a Christian or (2) they're not invest enough time into studying the Bible.
I read Joani's book when I was a very young girl, I've never forgotten her story but as I've grown in the Word I understand it now. She is such a blessing and great example for all of us.
Listening to Taylor Swift for an entire eternity would indeed be Hell! 🤣🤣🤣
😂
I love the way Todd phrased the response to "Does God Exist?" at 1:40. I've heard (and used) both points "Look at the human eye, it is way too complex to exist without a creator," and "The building is evidence of a builder." But, merging them into the same point in the way that he did is actually genius and a connection I had never made before tbh. "This building is not as intricate as your eye." It's a very powerful point when you contrast God's creation and our inventions. The argument could be taken even further by using an anthill as an example. We see an anthill and immediately accept that there is an ant colony that built it, yet an anthill is absolutely nothing compared to even the least complex naturally-occurring structure like a plant. A system of holes in the ground is evidence of an ant colony, yet it is so difficult for people to accept that our eye is evidence of God.
AMEN! Jesus said, "IT IS ENOUGH" ... enough for every single person to have to be forgiven.. no matter what. Every knee bowed...every mouth STOPPETED... HE IS WORTHY!!
So when does He start answering prayers? How many prayers have been prayed in true sincerity and never been answered?! MANY!!!! Those that 'get lucky' never care about those who don't!!
Thanks Pastor. More of these to show us how to answer the tough questions especially when evangelizing.
You want tough Questions??! Here's one: How and why would God "Save us from Hell" when He can't even get us out of Hell right here on Earth? Try and answer w/o making it our fault - the usual go-to! When someone follows God wholeheartedly, and still doesn't receive what God has Promised, what then?
07:20 Very wise advice... People do not understand we have sinned against God Almighty. The source of our life.
God did not create that which can die, so think again.....!!
The only SIN against God is the mortal belief in a life separate and apart from God, and the reason you believe you are a Mortal being!!
In proportion to our abandonment of God are we taken care of by God. Therefore, we must surrender to the Will of God if we truly Desire to Discern the Movements of God within, as God conducts his Will in ways that oppose human will and understanding.
We must Remove the False Mortal Image of a mortal ME separate and apart from God....
The Christ(Realization of Spiritual Immortality)is the act of Eternal Life living Within its own Infinity, and becomes Demonstrable through the Receptivity of the Crucifixion of the Self separate and apart from God....
The Christ is ALWAYS ALIVE IN US, but we must be Alive to the Christ....
When we are not attuned to Divine Consciousness(Eternal Life, Immortality, Truth, God), by default, we are attuned to Mortal Consciousness(karmic death, mortality, form, fear, evil, etc)....
Every communication Unfolding from God within is to encourage the Spirit/Soul die to the False Sense of Mortal Self, as the Purpose of the Soul is to take Dominion over our only Adversary, the World Mind and it's thoughts tempting us to believe mortality/form/decay is reality...
The Christ Within asks one thing of us:
Crucify the Belief in a mortal Me Separate and Apart from the Immortal, Omnipresent Spirit of God, as there is no more Glorious a Demonstration than the Transformation from mortal sense to Spiritual Immortality...
Heaven is where you are and the only place that you can ever be, yet Hell is the place that you insist on experiencing by entertaining a mortal life separate and apart from God.

That was the best explanation I’ve heard on how God sees our sins and why the penalty is so high. Thank you for that clarity! 7:31
Great job, brother Todd! You are an imspiration! God bless you and your ministry!
That young guy who spread out the CDs makes a lot of sense.
It’s him when he was younger 😂
Creation itself proves there’s an intelligent designer; order & design. Proves there’s a intelligent creator; the earth is a cosmic coincidence, it clearly shows a intelligent designer;
The universe cannot exist without an intelligent creator; human DNA contains 8 billion bits of information; DNA cannot be seen with the naked eye
"Every song has a composer, every book has
an author, every car has a maker, every
painting has a painter, and every building has
a builder. So it isn't irrational to take this
simple logic a little further and say that
nature must have had a Maker. It would be
irrational to believe that it made itself."
Life cannot spontaneous generate;
Law of Biogenesis states that life arises from pre-existing life, not from nonliving matter. It means that a nonliving thing would not have the capacity to engender a living thing. Only another life can do that.
it’s simple logic; To be an atheist, I would have to believe...

... randomness produced precision, ... chaos produced order.

Life cannot spontaneous generate; Law Of Biogenesis Definition
Law of Biogenesis states that life arises from pre-existing life, not from nonliving matter. It means that a nonliving thing would not have the capacity to engender a living thing. Only another life can do that. The complex, organized structures and processes in living organisms cannot spontaneously arise or develop through chemical reactions or physical means alone. They require a pre-existing living system as the source of new life.
The idea that what has happened on Earth seems to be contrary to the more general statements of the second law of thermodynamics is generally rebutted1 by noting that the Earth is an open system, and the second law only applies to isolated systems.
Nevertheless, the second law is all about probability and there is something about the origin and evolution of life, and the development of human intelligence and civilization, that appears to many to defy the spirit, if not the letter, of the second law even if the Earth is an open system. There seems to be something extraordinarily improbable about life.
The second law of thermodynamics - at least the underlying principle behind this law - simply says that natural forces do not cause extremely improbable things to happen, and it is absurd to argue that because the Earth receives energy from the Sun, this principle was not violated here when the original rearrangement of atoms into encyclopedias and computers occurred.

You certain of that? I have questions not heard before, and no answer given! Usually the so-called "Answer" is to attack me personally, or try to make me a Liar about my experiences and commitment to the Lord. Guess what? that's NOT the answer!
Todd looking young 😄👍
Ray Comfort is hosting today! 😂😄😃🤣😂 Excellent teaching today, as always! ❤
8:55 Yes! The harmony of the attributes of God in the cross of Christ! I first hear Paul Washer talk about this, who rightly remarked that no one talks about it. As soon as Todd said, "he did this to demonstrate...," it was like a relief. So seldom do Christians go to this foundational theological point to answer the question of evil and why things are the way they are. I love it. It provides the way to articulate the continuity and consistency of our faith and the gospel that is otherwise difficult to explain.
May we boldly proclaim the truth, that is the word of God, to all of the world, so whoever has ears to hear and eyes to see would know Christ!
Like the beard Todd.

Excellent points, clearly defined for understanding - I gotta take notes!!!!
Joni is so beautiful, inside & out, we have truly been blessed by GOD having her as an inspiration to us all.
How could we ever appreciate a God who wasn't willing to share in our sufferings we do . . . we brought evil upon ourselves, through His Suffering, He gave us Salvation to reward us if we believe in Him!!!
THANK YOU JESUS!!! Just seems so shallow in comparison.
amen
❤love your you tube. If you address #6 first and find the Gospel message you will learn not only not to fear death but to look forward to it.
When I am asked how God can be three in one I use the analogy of man having three distinct parts the body, mind and spirit. The fleshly body with its physical desires and and needs can act as one regardless of how the other two feel like say a drug addict or alcoholics cravings. The mind can function on it's own based on knowledge, thoughts, information and past experiences regardless of how the other two feel like controlling the desires of the flesh by saying no to things that are wrong, unsafe or not being good for the whole thus controlling how the other two operate in tandem. And the spirit based on emotion can cause one to act despite how the mind or body feels about something like when you see someone in need and your brain reasons it's not your job or that someone else will help them or your body might feel that helping will mean doing something physically which it doesn't want to do like helping someone change a tire on the side of the road. This idea come to me when I inquired of God to help me make sense of the Trinity. So far it's worked and everyone says it makes It makes sense to the and they can wrap their minds around the concept.
It's all above humility....GOD even came to this planet as Jesus Christ. HIS son, to suffer and die a horrible horrible death, being crucified on the cross, for ALL, that is SALVATION. Knowing that there is a GOD is having FAITH, knowing you see HIS creations the very second you open your eyes, when you wake.
(James 4:6 ) tells us that “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble."
Not a low sense of self, but a peace in oneself knowing there is a Creator, and it blows my mind how GOD even talked to some people in history vocally, the Creator of all things talking directly to them. It's not about our pride, it's about GODS GRACE...PERIOD
God wanted me to see this video.
If you just walked into the room…..The DVD on the floor could have fallen out of box ….but still the DVD had to be made by someone
Some have now changed the argument and say ok let's say everything was created by God...which God?
I believe that when Christians are finally glorified and see Jesus as He is in all of His majestic, infinite power and holiness, eternal Hell will make absolutely perfect sense to us. I believe by faith that it is just, but I believe that when my faith is made sight, I will say "of course eternal torment in Hell is just and right for those who sin against God...just look at Him!!"
🙏
Nice Jeremy Vuolo beard goin on. ☺️
I'd like to hear some wisdom and explanation regarding Jesus's warning in Matthew 12:31-32. Thank you.
I don’t think it’s true that evil was introduced through man’s actions , bc evil already existed in the serpent that tempted them and man didn’t place that serpent there.

The only reason i am saved is Jesus.

Hi it's Delft not Delfi..... Greetings from South Africa Thanks for your conten
I think I try to do good.....that is all I can say to that......as a creature of free will....I choose good works....which is why I think salvation is predicated on faith AND works.
Titus 3:5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; that being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
The book of Romans says that our good works are as filthy rags in God’s sight. Nothing we do could put God in our debt or earn us anything from Him. To believe you can earn your salvation is self-righteousness. Truly, ask God to show you the truth in prayer, and read what His Word says about this.
You shouldn’t look inside yourself or your own actions and beliefs to figure out what God has determined, but look in God’s Word itself. Our hearts are deceitful above all else. All humans naturally try to earn salvation, but our natural actions are sinful, and we need Jesus to save us and make us new creatures in His GRACE. Free, undeserved grace, received by faith alone. 💙
@@kaitlinrose6352That verse is Isaiah 64:6.

5:49 the best way I can explain the Trinity is to use water.. Water can be in 3 different states of being( water, ice, steam) but is still water. Same is the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit but still God.
That's Partialism Patrick! Just use the Athanasian Creed, its the only way to explain it without risking inadvertent Heresy, just as that, now pretty Legendary, Cartoon Explained!
I find ourselves to be the best example for how God is, since we are made in His image. Body, Spirit, Soul. Triune. Jesus is the Body of God, in Him dwells the fullness of the Godhead.
Yeah Modalism and Partialism are heresy's. When i was an early Christian i made these mistakes too it's ok, just know about them and repent from it. God isn't in 3 forms or 3 parts ;)
@@Heretoga Amen.
thats modalism, its a heresy.
Leveticus 26:21 "rampant disobeying of the commandment of GOD is the result of all crimes, violence, calamities, hunger, sickness, suicide and wars".
id like to be like the angels in that they chose not to sin and never need salvation, they have free will and remained sinless, I would have liked the choice to make that one decision and never fail god.
I like the beard
Ok from Adam on down, we as humans didn’t have a choice between evil and God .
By our very actions of denying God , evil is a result of those actions . And unless we repent , hell is a consequence.
Realizing our self as a sinner, is an action of the Holy Spirit . And have. Choice is an action of God .
Our choice to repent and ask for God’s forgiveness is our action
God’s response:
Ephesians 1:13-14-13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession-to the praise of his glory.
Explaining the Trinity is really tough......it is called the Mystery of Faith.
Here are some examples you can use.
Time is in essence is just one thing. But it made up of 3 parts. There is the past, present, and the future. All three parts are what makes up time,
just like the Triniy which is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Then there is matter which is composed of 3 different primary states in the universe
There is liquid, gas and solid.
Next is the colors in our world . All colors come from 3 primary colors, which are red, blue, and yellow. Mixing any two or even three of these primary colors, will produce a new color.
Also you can use this last analogy to explain the Trinity.
A man can be seen by others , as a father, son, and a husband, which is similar to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The council of Nicea and Constantinople explained it perfectly.
I feel like it's a "no" on the beard...it adds about 15 years. Just an observation..
Soooo, am I to assume that what Paul said to women regarding preaching to the flock (the video shows that she's speaking to both men and women), to being spiritual teachers doesn't apply if she's a paraplegic?
And here Wretched makes a reference to her which demonstrates their approval.
As I see it Wretched tends to behave like a weathervane theologically. Sometimes it points in the right direction. Other times . . .
Why do you need such a big studio dude?
As a Pelagian heretic....I dont believe in inherited original sin....one of the silliest doctrine I have ever heard.
I agree the western idea of original sin is wrong, but have you heard the Eastern Orthodox idea of the fall of man?
I have a Bible question that I hope you can answer. 1 Corinthians 15:29 KJV
Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
What is this verse saying?
You can’t out sin God’s grace! 😮praise the Savior 😔
You can fall away from the grace of God, like it says in Mathew 13 with the Parable of the Sower.
KJV Exodus 20 :
1 no other gods-gone
2 no graven images-gone
3 don't take GOD'S name in vain-gone
*4 Keep GOD'S SANCTIFIED SATURDAY SABBATH -hanging on tattered thread*
5 honor father mother-gone
6 don't kill-gone

JESUS CHRIST 2 COMMANDMENTS
Matthew 22 :36-40
11 Love GOD With All heart mind soul-gone
12 love neighbor asself-gone
( paraphrased)

I’ve been a Christian for years now and I honestly still have issue with an eternal hell… I can’t wrap my mind around how it is fair. I hope that if it is eternal, that truth will make much more since when I’m with Jesus. I’ve been praying for the Lord to help me understand it…
There are two ways to answer that, both of them being true.
1. The first one, every crime has a punishment, and therefore since every sin is a holy offense to God, in an infinite offense, then it has to have an infinite punishment.
2. Who says they stop sinning once they get to hell?
Just think of this way, God loves us so much that he will not force us or anyone to be with him.
God is Loving but he is also Just.
Sin must be paid.
Romans 6:23 "for the wages of sin is death.. "
Sin is a very serious crime to God.
Sin is an act of rebellion that separates us from God.
If God will just forgive all sins without punishment do you think he will be a good judge?
Like in a court of law if the judge will just forgive the crime committed by the criminal without punishment would that be good?
That's why Jesus died for our sins and paid it on our behalf so that we will no longer be in eternal damnation. Repent and trust in Jesus.
Hope this helps you understand.
Because people sin willingly, God cannot allow reprobates into heaven.
How many evils are there and what is the evils.pain in the body isn't evil,being judged an put in jail or court is not evil,judging little is not evil,no water no food to eat or drink is not evil.there is more other evils in this world that are worse and those are the evil but where does it stop and go I good?there isn't a end and will always go on in both ways an we are to learn from them.
Is this your brother with the beard?

Why do not Christians use these passages in their discussions about God and there certainly are many more
Romans 1:19-20-19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
Ecclesiastes 3:11-He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men, yet they cannot fathom the work that God has done from beginning to end.
john 1:1 "in the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with GOD, and the WORD was GOD. (no mention of the HOLY SPIRIT is GOD.)

Mathematics is the language we have created to interpret the universe around us yet we've reached a point where most people believe that mathematics created the universe.
Mathematics isn’t created by humans, it’s discovered.
God created it not man. Man discovered it as it was already there.
Todd, give me the opportunity to perfect your theology. Let's end all the debates, bickering, arguing, feuding among the brethren. There are no contradictions with the Word of God with my theology...no conflict with osas v lose your salvation..... God's sovereignty v man's freewill...etc. We can end the 400 year feud between the Cals and Arms. Interested?
Does God need to be necessary for the Universe existing? I mean, my gut reaction to this is no... but my philosopher's instinct is "How does Trigonometry work?" Because I'll tell you this, you see design in the universe. It's mind boggling how accurate number theory actually is, and basically all our math is based on that. Like... it's more a question of "Why does that come about randomly?" And I think that's more honest because I don't know. Like, just with a quadratic equation, there's logic to how it works, and you can construct a shape based on those rules, and it will ALWAYS produce the right answer. Like, why does that happen, if random chance produces everything? And then that right answer will be useful in all areas of life. Like based on the geometry of two dimensional objects, you can reduce exponentiated equations, and use those answers for just about anything, from astronomy to engineering to solving a geometric proof. That's how in tune numbers are with the universe. So that's why it holds water, but you can't just tell people to accept that on faith. And that's I think the problem with most Apologists, is they don't thoroughly explain why morals prove God exists, or why math does. It just gets assumed. But, that's why I'm here, to make those difficult arguments, in a more nuanced setting, so people actually do believe in God, and actually do come to saving faith.
I also think the cause and effect are reversed. It's always, "Because God, therefore these things." I go the opposite, "Because these things, therefore God."
I would like to hear the arguement that says we don't need a God for subjective morality
@@mistertracey1 Because by doing the right thing, it allows everyone to have better lives, and flourish, versus not doing the right thing, it makes everyone but a few suffer.
And usually when society is doing the wrong things, the people who don't suffer are the very worst.
We work from God's law, and see it's self evident and therefore proves God was right. We don't go from God to the Law. That doesn't make any sense. It's not just because God said so. That's the point I'm making. There's very real reasons God calls sin, sin.
@@BKNeifert what is"the right thing" if it is subjective? And how do we agree? It's just whatever we prefer at that point. So we start with God as our standard.
@@mistertracey1 That's an empty question. You know the right thing, without having to be told. And so does everyone else. If that's not true, than you can indeed say there is no God. But, I'm confident humans are born knowing it, and already know the answer. It's just we go astray.
And if you don't know, that's why God made hell. Because you sinned, and therefore, cannot understand the truth.
@@BKNeifert exactly. God first. You're agreeing with me
There is a God but it's also God's and the creators of man animal food,trees ext....
If these gods didn't want wrong to happen he could delete us from here because he is the almighty above.
Todd Friel believes in "Free will" ? 😮... Please elaborate
You choose to do what you do.
It's interesting you'll find at the top of most world religions a little 'elite' group who effectively say, "There is a single Creator God which we know very little about." and that was the 'secret knowledge' you had to work through the whole pagan system to be told about and weren't allowed to speak openly.
God of the gaps boy
It is a shame that if you are a Believer and take a problem to other Believers, they just question your Salvation and never try to help with the Problem! Are there ANY Christians out there whose ULTIMATE God is NOT "Don't be inconvenienced, that's YOUR problem, too bad!"? Are there ANY who will extend a hand to a stranger?
I was (am!?) doing that - [helping the helpless who had no one else that cared]; Now when "I" need, no one is there??!! It's horrible to live with NO ONE caring if you live or die.... [not all have BLOOD family they can turn to, and if you don't, too bad for you! Just go away!]
It is hypocritical to preach a Jesus who will meet all your needs, when your own are not met! How much Time does the Eternal need to move?
"Ask whatsoever ye will in my Name, And I will do it for you" When this does not happen, then what? It is a lie when it never manifests, year after year after year. Of course, it is somehow MY fault, everyone refuses to believe the reality that God just doesn't do what He promised, even when you have done all to please Him w/ correct surrender, Faith, and actions.
Condemn me if you like; you haven't been there like I am/have been, so what good are you to judge me? Compassion, Understanding, Empathy, Caring - not to be found, especially from the Judger's lips! You got yours, too bad for me!
Sometimes it seems as if the Scriptural Truths are as Fake as the people who supposedly adhere to it!
Ok we get to the deist stage with Number 8....and not all that convincingly.....you take a lot for granted.
Fire is hot, but water is certainly not wet
Jesus is real, therfore hell is certainly real.
Whether water is wet or not, doesn't affect where u will spend eternity. However, whether Jesus is or isn't who he claimed to be does affect where you will spend eternity. So that's the more important question.
Is it dry?
@@rlemar6645 no it is not dry, nor is it wet. Water has the ability to make other objects wet, but water itself is not wet.
@@badbones2tone agreed
Christians should be able to answer who God is. They can't seem to after 2000 years.
Question 7 wasn't answered fully
4:37 Understanding the holy trinity 3 in 1. I was given the example of Ice that when melts turns to water that when heated turns to steam. ICE-WATER-STEAM all the same essence but presented in three distinct ways. Father - Son - Holy Spirit are all God who presents himself in three distinct ways. Any thoughts on this ?
That is something called modalism, something distinct from the Biblical trinity, it a false teaching that teaches that God is one person that changes forms and presents himself as three different persons while only being person. I would avoid using water as a means to understand the trinity, as it always makes people see it as modalism, but if you want to use it for yourself, just imagine that each part is distinctly and entirely water, and that all 3 exist at the same time while being distinct but all water entirely on their own. It is often said, God has revealed himself eternally existing as 3 Persons, all 1 being. (I know you are asking Todd Friel, but I am certain he would answer in the same way, without the attempt to correct the metaphor.)
@@coolaleco8568 Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I read that the flaw in Modalism is that only one can be present at a time, whereby we know that all three are distinct individuals. For example Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father in Heaven, he does not sit at the right hand of himself.
@@enudretheinsult I will expand a bit for you. We are forced to believe in the doctrine of the Trinity because we are taught by scripture that
1.) There is one true God
2.) There are 3 persons revealed as the one true God. The Son, The Father, and The Holy Spirit, and they are distinguished from one another.
It is something that is clearly taught but not intuitive to understand. I have heard it been put that every analogy of the Trinity will break down when examined thoroughly because the Trinity is something entirely unique, there is nothing like it. You are you, you are a person, and your body is your being, our being is limited, it is physical. An inanimate object has being but no personhood, it exists but it is not alive. God is 3 persons, who exist in the same being, but this being is unrestrained and unlimited like ours is, this is how the incarnate Son can sit at the right hand of the Father, while both are the one true God. I don't think the Trinity will be fully clear until heaven.
Some things cause some to stumble over the Trinity, such as Jesus calling the Father his God, or when God's word refers to the Father as the One True God. Some things are unintuitive but whenever something is not intuitive to me I've found great resources online about it.
That is more like Modalism which is not 3 in 1 but 1 that shows himself in different modes at different times. We just need to stick with all the truths statements of scripture. We can use a logic statement such as 1G is (1F and 1S and 1HS). Where G is God. F is the Father, S is the Son and HS is the Holy Spirit. G is of type being and F, S and HS are of type person.
Don't use water, don't use shamrocks(I believe St.Patrick using it is just a myth).
I am evil, so evil my own planet exiled me, or God exiled me from my home.
Mars Exalte ! or whatever that means .. lol
