“I looked it up on Google.” Meaning, “I found the answers I like.”
Absolutely 💯 positively ANY weak excuse not to believe.
That's about right. Unfortunately
Well the academic determination is that the various books of the NT were written between 20 and 90 years after the death of Jesus by anonymous authors educated in koine Greek.
The only part of the NT written by a known author are the Pauline Epistles which come between 20 and 40 years later.
@Gek1177 you just heard what Frank said. And we're supposed to believe you?
@@Gek1177 ......known author ........according to whom? Some liberal scholars 2000 years later? Atheists on the internet? We absolutely know the authors as not only is it self authenticating but we have sources that confirm in the 1st and 2nd century.
The books were written in the lifetime of the eye witnesses by the eyewitnesses. If you would like proof we can have that convo again but last time you deleted your post when proven wrong.
Creeds existed immediately after Jesus was resurrected. Most ppl did not have books as we have today but the message was preserved in letters from the people who knew Jesus and saw for themselves.....and died for Him
2000 years later ppl disrespect them on the Internet with false claims
“I don’t trust the Bible, but I trust everything that Google says!” 🙄
Beautiful.

@@l.m.892
And "bible was published 100 AD"
Yeah so? Doesn't mean that is when it was written done for first time. 1st draft to publication is a long hard road.
So you think Mr Goggle is some kind of god. Unfortunately this god of yours wasnt there as the eye witness when Jesus Christ was on earth. And furthermore Mr Goggle wasnt even born.
The slogan of the world is to believe lies and shun the truth.
Your believing in thr bible doesnt change the fact that Jesus Christ is God of all creation and better accept that before it is too late becsuse Mr Google wont be around to help you because google will be disintergrated.
Google > Bible, I understand not trusting everything that Google says, but I'll definitely take Google's word over the Bible
Absolutely loved this exchange! Young man is highly skeptical but not immune to truth. Way to lovingly introduce facts that point the lost to the truth, Frank!
Frank doesn’t have “the truth”. He is a businessman protecting his snake oil by lying tot he masses.
I love this comment and so agree with it.
The young man was ill prepared to discuss the subject in great detail or he probably got nervous. Frank just regurgitated typical apologist 101 that would have been shot down by some of the more mainstream Atheists that know the bible and studies religion. Frank Turk is no more convincing than Ray Comfort!
Frank is a lot more polite than I would be
crazy he answers theses questions off the top of his head. Biblical scholars always amaze me
repetition
"If you speak nonsense with great confidence you can sell people anything." - Donald J Trump (The Art of the Deal)
He is not a biblical scholar, he is an apologist
Biblical scholar?
Where?
@@ronniejamesstepfordYour comment is self proving! Congrats!
We should all pray for this young guy that he truly does seek the truth, and pour through the Bible in the days to come.
Reading the Gospel of John is like my soul looking into a mirror, like a light turned on in the darkness of my mind. It was my sin that nailed Him to the Cross. It will wake up repentance and love for God in the broken hearted, or anger/indifference in the arrogant. It changed my life forever. NO religion, just a brand new life in Christ. I was once blind but now I see and I didn't even deserve it. Amazing Grace.
I experienced none of those things reading it....
@@mattslater2603
Actually you did, peewee. After being a fake Christian for 20 years the anger was stirred up in your arrogance.

Hallelujah! Welcome brother!
Professing to be wise, they became fools.
It's sad to see what has happened to so many of our youth.
To whom are you referring when you mention "they"?
You mean getting defiled by your church leaders?
I believe that young man was pointed toward the direction of the truth, and it seemed like he was willing to do more study. I pray for him. If God wants him to be saved, he will be. All the youth could be saved if it's in God's will and for His glory.
There’s nothing wrong with the youth. They are simply rejecting the immoral fairytales from the older generation.
This is progress and you think it’s a bad thing.
@@Theo_SkeptomaiThe verse is Romans 1:22 and the "they" are the ungodly and unrighteous. Rom. 1:18-21 "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men , who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and God head, so that they are without excuse, because although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened." And that's who"they" are. People think they're so wise and that those who believe Biblical truth are fools. It's the opposite because you can become very wise by reading, meditating on and believing the Scriptures. God bless you!😊✝️🫂❤️
The production team really knocked it outta the park with this one. It always feels like a visual timeline like that is needed everytime dates are mentioned or eyes start glazing over.
The arrogance and ignorance of our young people! There is no way I'd stand up and argue about something I knew nothing about. How utterly cringe-worthy that exchange was.
I thought he was humble enough at the end and Turek made some good points
Whats so arrogant about it? He opened up a forum for people to come with their doubts and questions and they did.
@@martbau25what’s arrogant is, this kid is absolutely clueless in a topic, does a 1 minute google search, and is so arrogant he challenges a professional speaker on the topic.
Frank is not that young.
@@martbau25🤦♀️🙄
Darwin wrong, Bible true, Jesus saves. Love yall
The one thing darwin was right about is evolution. Science has further established the fact of the evolution decades ago. The only thing a believer could say is that it was their version of God who is responsible for evolution. Jesus was Jewish, and the jews don't even believe jesus to be divine, nor did his brother or family.
The Catholic Church believes in theistic evolution. And so does Francis Collins. So yes, Darwin was right about some things.
@@hhh-et2vi James later believed in his brother
announce to the world that at least one neanderthal man still exists why don't you
@@hhh-et2vi No he wasnt right, Never been observed that a specie evolved to become a completely new specie.
It is still a theory and will allways be.
And yes the disciples beleived and went through torture and death, and no one does that for a lie.
We'd have to throw out a lot of accepted historical facts if we use his standard. Historical reliability isn't based solely on how long ago it was written down after the event.
If a portion of recorded history isn't reliable then it should be thrown out.
@@ronniejamesstepford yes of course, but you missed my main point;
*"Historical reliability isn't based solely on how long ago it was written down after the event."*
This is true. It's based likely hood and if their is evidence to suggestion. No way is there evidence to support a ressurection, Moses, Noah's arc, or Adam and eve. We don't even need to talk about dates passed these things
True.... so just throw them out then?
Better to be skeptical of what we can't actually show to be true, then to accept ridiculous claims on fallacious reasoning.
Regardless of when they were written
@@sterlingfallsproductions3930 Pretty much.
We can't even show Moses to have existed...
When the bible was written is among the least of its problems... when it comes to showing its actually true.
I feel like this young man was genuinely asking questions and much more open minded than most than try and grasp at straws. He had fundamentally bad information and researched it poorly but at least he listened and seemed to open his mind. Hopefully he can be saved! 🙏
Do YOU consider _yourself_ to be "open minded"?
Yeah, people are bashing him in the comments, but I see he is not really far away from coming to the understanding of the truth of the gospels.
@@matiasnunes7250 Do you believe the gospels to be true and factual accounts?
@@Theo_Skeptomai CZcams unfortunately isn’t the greatest place for these types of discussions as I only access it via mobile device. I was agnostic until 2018. My open mindedness probably varies from topic to topic to be fair. Ex: there is no openness to the idea that the Chiefs get “all the calls” or are “favored by the refs”. All that to say I had a direct intervention from God that brought me an agnostic directly to my knees. I would be happy to record my testimony if you have interest. Ultimately, I came down with an illness that made it impossible to have kids and potentially would kill me. It caused me to have suicidal thoughts as I knew I had wanted children since I was 12 and my oldest nephew was born. The rest of my story is better in video form.
We all have different journeys towards what we deem to be the truth. I would say when it comes to finding Christ it’s a lot like searching for a whale, and if you only search on land you will never find one. If you really want to see if God is real you will need to open your heart to the possibility and attend a good church. Unfortunately as I am sure you may ask what designates a good church, there are many but also some that are bad. Bad churches are one of the most common reasons I find that people leave the faith. Generally speaking it has a fair amount to do with the congregation and pastor(s).
If you take nothing else from this, read “The Case for Christ”. It was written by an Atheist from an Atheist’s perspective. I wish you nothing but the best truly.
From the beginning it makes me think that he doesn't know the bible wasn't written in 1 whole book all at once. It sounds like he thinks it was "published" as a whole like a book in the 21st century when it was written on scrolls, passed down orally, collected from several books, and combined with letters and other forms of text.
all atheists should just accept reality and stop being delusional, GOD IS KING OF KINGS AMEN 🙏💪.
I agree, also our God is Lord of Lords Glory hallelujah.
Can you answer some simple moral questions?
@@macmac1022go ahead
@@isaacmalsawmsanga8699 #1 You see a child drowning in a shallow pool and notice a person just watching that is able to save the child with no risk to themselves but is not, is that persons non action moral?
#2 If you go to save the child, the man tells you to stop as he was told it was for the greater good, but he does not know what that is, do you continue to save the child?
#3 Is it an act of justice to punish innocent people for the crimes of others?
#4 If you were able to stop it and knew a person was about to grape a child would you stop it?
#5 Would you consider a parent who put their kids in a room with a poison fruit and told the kids not to eat it but then also put the best con artist in the room with the children knowing the con artist will get the kids to eat the fruit and the parent does nothing to stop it a good parent?
Or you could just accept the burden of proof when you make claims.
I knew very little Bible when I got saved. I trusted the gospel that spoke truth to me and the drastic change that took place after I prayed in faith and trusted in Christ for my salvation.
For over 2 decades now, I've consistently seen and learned more that confirms the truth of my risen Lord and Savior. That belief has only been strengthened over time.
Appeal to consequence fallacy....
Yawn.
Are all gods commands good?
@jacquelineharris6124 I've seen enough of your comments here to know there's criticism coming so why not just get to it instead of using a set up question for me? Saves time.
Which command from the Old Testament is it that you don't like?
@@mattslater2603
Hey $hlatz, don't you have a drag queen story hour to perform in tonight?
Atheism is just a "lack of belief" it has no insight into anything but the individual atheists feelings and opinions so that make your objections useless
Lee Strobel A Case for Christ.
Excellent read
I always love reading the works of people like Strobel who set out to prove Christianity wrong and instead find out it is the truth.
I don't find Strobel very convincing
@@kinggenius930 Then how about CS Lewis? He did not take the same approach Strobel did but instead went into it from a logical/reasoning perspective.
@@pcdeltalink036 To be honest, I don't think there is any apologist who has created a sufficiently convincing argument for the claims of Christianity
@@kinggenius930 I don't know what to tell you then except that you may have impossible standards to reasonably conclude something. Lewis follows the logic where it leads, to belief in God. Strobel (and others, he isn't the only one to investigate Christianity like this) follows the evidence and realizes it is overwhelming in favor of Christianity.
At least the young man was respectful and honest. Hopefully he will do some reading from something other than google. Some of the expressions on his face seemed to me to be realizing that he should do some reading. Praying he he will.
He is very kind and patient with this young man...❤
I was across the street of the towers and still remember the pattern of the skirt I wore that day.

Thank you Frank
Remember the good old days
Before smartphones back in the 90s and before
When people would say
Don't believe everything you see on the internet
Why do you think they said that
Are you serious? You know how many lies I was told on average growing up without the internet where now I can just fact check and not take someone at their word? 😅
What? People were ALWAYS constantly lying...
That's where these religions came from...
That kid isn't a nonbeliever due to "unreliable sources." He's hiding behind "unreliable sources" because he doesn't want to believe.
The instant you knock the legs out from under his current objection, he'll instantly leap to the next one. Wash, rinse, repeat.
At least he said he was willing to follow Jesus if he really raised from the dead. That better than what most atheists say. His heart is at least open to the truth.
@@MrWhocares51 So because an atheist doesn't want to follow a religion based on awful things whether that god is real or not then the atheist is in the wrong? Wow, talk about running off a cliff.
@@albaraka7519
What is more awful?
Witnessing a violent crime?
Or using violence to stop a violent crime?
Imagine if God just appeared, spoke to him, and answered all his questions.
That's the worst thing that could possibly happen, according to most Christians I've spoken with.
@@mattr.1887
Ill try to explain why.
1. This request of personal attendance by God to our questions (of many atheists and Christians alike) is based in ignorance and ego.
2. Flesh and Divine do not mix. Why? Because sin gets burned up in the presence of the Holiest God. The closer you are to God, the more urgent and important it is to deal with one's own sin, before God deals with it.
3. That's why Jesus Christ is considered necessary, because according to the Bible, God saw that humanity is incapable of keeping the requirements of the laws of the God King.
4. Jesus Christ is God, in human form, conceived in Mary, and birthed as a huMan. Sinless. Without the corruption of the first man, and continued sinless until His physical death. He's the ONLY human that can stand fully before God and not perish from the overwhelming Holiness emanating from God's very Being.
Think of it this way.
A steel girder that is weak, or has any rust in it, is not suitable to carry the weight of a skyscraper. It is not fit for purpose.
Sin is like rust and corruption.
Jesus has no sin.
Jesus can carry the weight and burden of The Holy God.
If you want your questions answered, I invite you to stand on or under Jesus. Join the family. He's the One who can, and will, give the answers we seek.
Thank you CrossExamined
Also, just about every historical events in antiquity was documented aka written down much LONGER than that, often 100 or more after the event! Yet , historiography accepts these events as historically accurate.
Zero evidence for a global flood sooo...its not historically accurate.
Are they basing this information off other sources or are they the original source for that information? Think about it
@@sterlingfallsproductions3930 As a Ph.D. and Univ Prof at UCLA and Pepperdine I have done extensive historical research. You might want to try it sometimes. LOL
@@sterlingfallsproductions3930The gospels were written by eyewitnesses or dictated to the authors by the eyewitnesses. And the speed with which the gospels were written after the events is impressive when compared to just about every other account of historical events that we don’t question in academia. That’s the OPs point. There is insane amounts of external source evidence for the events in the New Testament, most people just don’t want to look for it, or don’t want to acknowledge it.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil

@@jeffphelps1355 "the foundation of atheism is mocking and condescending remarks." Actually the foundation of atheism is theism's lack of testable evidence to verify their claims. If you could verify your claims and show any god to be real atheism would cease to exist. "You just proved why your position isn't trustworthy." Sigh. Pal, your first comment denounced atheists for not believing in the claims of theists when theists are the ones who failed to meet their burden of proof in the first place, thus validating atheism's disbelief.

Whew boy. He wasn’t doing his atheist brethren any favors by showing up unprepared and looking like that. That shows his blatant disregard for the gospel accounts. He thought he could hand wave it off like many of the more ignorant ones do. A Google search?

You think you’re the first? Come on, man.
Uhhh it's even easier then that.
All you need to do is point out... correctly... that not even one of the silly supernatural claims of Christianity have ever been shown to be factual...

Your response reads differently. “No proof as usual.” Sounds like you lean a certain way to me. “Proof,” for anything, is always there when you want to see it. And my statement is basically, right. No sloppy google search is going to just upend Christianity like he thought. If you’re going to deal a mortal blow, it’ll take more than that. Christianity has a surprising amount of historical verifiability that makes it hard to dismiss.

Speaking of impact events, I can remember exactly where I was when, at age 14, I heard that abortion was legal. I can remember what room I was in, where the my mom and I were sitting, and the exact conversation. It was EXTREMELY traumatic, and I knew my childhood had ended that day. I can't remember the exact date but I remember that conversation like it happened yesterday. I can still hear my departed mother's voice too. That was approximately 49 years ago.

5:23 I was wondering why my mom was still in her room. Phones were jammed up and she was trying to get ahold of my dad.

“It’s not a lie, if you believe it” - Costanza
Thank you for clearing this up.
But they aren't reliable....
This is GOLD!
Without lies atheism dies
Nice adaptation.
Cope....
@@mattslater2603 cry harder lil guy
With the truth you'll be rebuked.
What lies?
This is called a BEAT DOWN. Cool trendy liberal atheist comes to the mic armed with a two sentence quote from Google and gets overwhelmed with a tsunami of FACTS.
Where was the beat down?
@@mattr.1887 Hit the play button. watch. You're welcome
That whole minutes were filled with joyful gladness in heavens.
How do you know?
I feel a very strong loving compulsion towards this guy. I hope and pray he finds the strength to humble himself before Jesus and accept Him
Thank you!
22 years after an impactful event ... like 9-11 I remember where I was, what I was about to do, what we did instead, and the resulting actions as it impacted us.
I remember the coverage on the news, the contacts I made to learn if my extended family was safe. And much more.
What is your point?
I had just walked in from work, banged the TV on, saw the news, went back to my office, asked if my boss had seen it, he hadn't, by then it was already being repeated and was becoming very clear that it was no accident. We started 'planning', how would we react to something similar in London. The following day, I spoke with people who worked in London who dealt with the businesses, the people, that worked in the Twin Towers.
I remember the sudden lack of aircraft in our overhead. The shock of what had happened and the fear of what might follow.
I also remember hearing the bang from the bomb that killed Airey Neave, where I was when I heard about JFK. I remember the mood of the people around me, I do not remember the dates, but I can look them up. I can still hear a woman called Molly Dunmall saying 'that was a bomb' when Airey Neave died.
Love the low frequency sound in the background
They put it in to make you happy.

🤣😅😂
@@bassmanjr100 I understand why you might see it that way. To me, that sound adds depth to the message and helps create a reflective atmosphere.
I see it as a thoughtful addition rather than just something to make me happy.
It's about recognizing the effort behind it.
If you're curious, I can explain how it contributes to my overall understanding of the message.
Now I hear it too 🫣
Powerful! Good job Frank!
That was a good one Frank. Thanks.🙏
Pray for this young men!! Keep the reactions nice, as Christian’s we shouldn’t be mean.
awesome
Frank would’ve been a super star used car salesman because he’s a master at shading the truth.
Wow power thoughtful answer... what knowledge and wisdom... Amen!
I commend this young man for having the courage to ask this question. He was polite, patient and respectful. And, I love the moment of truth when Frank asked if he would believe if the resurrection is true. I pray he finds the answers I believe his heart is seeking.
And, if perhaps you are reading this, you may enjoy the CZcams channel called Truth is Christ. He shows beautiful mathematical patterns in the King James Bible that point to God being the only possible author. God bless you on your faith journey.
God bless you Dr. Turek for continuing to put your heart and soul into this and really taking the time with each student. You clearly have a gift. I don't think the average person has any idea how recent the dating rally is, or the overwhelming amount of manusctipt, archeological and other evidence exists pointing to the resurrection.
What?!? Identify just ONE _evidentiary fact_ that suggests this supposed resurrection occurred.
I too would be curious of non-Biblical evidence for the Resurrection
@kinggenius930 I have studied this topic extensively for nearly 40 years now. I have not found ONE _evidentiary fact_ that suggests the historicity of Jesus, much less the supposed ministry, trial, crucifixion, or resurrection of Christ.
The supposed sources are from Cornelius Tacitus, Gaius Suetonius, Pliney the Younger, Mara Bar Sarpian, Flavius Josephus, and a few others. NONE of these speak authentically or directly to the historicity of Jesus.
This is either delusion or just lying...
Just chipping in here. I’m also wondering what conclusive evidence might exist that points to the resurrection. It’s regarded by scholars in general to be a matter of faith, not a historical event.
This is a really beautiful illustration of explaining reliability
How so? Please elaborate.
It's wrong tho
Like it because he see the logic of all that, next with the reading i'm sure he will be blow away cause it's such a amazing book :) So powerful
"I don't want to believe because that means I'm accountable." that's what any of these arguments boil down to.
That's ridiculous.
I honor the young man for his honesty. Not only about his ignorance on the subject, but also that he would follow Christ if the evidence pointed to it. That's not easy to do publicly
I was 7 years old and in class at a Catholic school and have the memory clear in my mind. I’m 68.
Awesome video!
Wow beautiful explanation! I love frank turek! So smart and logical and so much knowledge 🤙🏽
Great explanation. There is reason to consider that the gospels were written even closer to Christ’s death. The epistles of Peter, James alone not counting John who was the only apostle to die of old age, could clearly prove eyewitness accounts of those closest to Jesus.
Dr Turek is whole pile of brainpower !…. Love watching and trying to absorb all the info
Pray for me brothers
We do Bible study
Every Thursday
In my work place
But 1/2 the crew don’t don’t do it
Good Exchange 👍
Amen!!!🙌🏻
Very well explained. It takes repentance by conviction of the Holy Ghost and revelation that Jesus is alive by which the Holy Ghost testifies
John 14:26
Spectacular truth Frank
Which truth are you referring to. Please state this truth in a complete sentence.
Well said!!!
Once again, Frank shows how to be patient and loving while making sound arguments.
Amen!
I mean his question is basically "why would we believe in Caesar if we reject all the historical accounts of Caesar?
We don't know exactly when Jesus was crucified, but it was probably 36-38 AD
Wholesome ✝
Frivolous 🫏
Much more interesting is when biblical scholars fact check the assertions made by frank and many other apologists about the bible.
It's very eye opening to listen to someone who Actually knows what they're talking About when it comes to the Bible rather than listen to someone like Frank push a narrative and a conclusion onto people As if his very livelihood depended on them believing him.
One of my favorite frank lies is the lies he tells about the condoning of slavery in the bible. Watching him cherry pick verses that don't actually command people not to own slaves while ignoring verses that specifically lay out the rules for which slaves you may pass to your children because they are your property and which ( The chosen ones) You must let go after six or seven years.
I was at work in the office during the attack of 911
I pray that young man finds the answers he needs. I pray he finds Jesus and welcomes Him into his life.
"There have been seven people associated with the crucifixion of Jesus found in archeology - seven of them, including Jesus himself."
Would Jesus being found not be inconsistent with the resurrection?
He was at list honest at the end may the Lord open his eyes and save his family and him amen
When someone points out conflicting stories in the gospels.
This pastor: Some books were written 20-30 years later you think you are going to remember every detail?
Same pastor: Do you think the authors are going to forget someone as important as Jesus resurrecting?
Same pastor.
Does frank have a site or video with his sources for the dates amd validity of the new testament documents, id love to look deeper into it
When he said GOOGLE, i knew the discussion was over for that kid,but he's a nice kid
And don't discount the fact that all Scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit, which is God. God makes sure you remember.
Perfect video Frank
This is why I dont like to debate people anymore. Because "I Googled it".
I no longer have the patience
Would you care to have a cordial conversation with an atheist who has done his own exhaustive research and doesn't need to reference any Google comment?
The seventh guy that Frank must mean is John cause he was at the Cross with Jesus told her that John is now her son and John that is your mother💯
How did you determine this event is factual?
This day in time the internet had caused people to think they have become intellectually successful proponents against God and accepting the Gospel. I respected the people more back in the day when they say they just don’t won’t to be believe or not ready to accept salvation.🤷🏾♂️
But that is not the case with me. I was a 'born-again' evangelical Christian for eight years, and I came to understand there is no credible evidence either for the reality of the Christian god or for the historicity of Jesus.
I am now an atheist. I define my position as to suspend any acknowledgment as to the reality of any particular god until sufficient credible evidence is presented. I attest that it is natural, rational, and even prudent to be skeptical of unsubstantiated claims, especially extraordinary ones.
Can you respect my position?
@@Theo_Skeptomai and how did you come to that conclusion and what evidence do you need.
Masterful.
