Although I do not agree with the LGBT community or it's belief! I truly respect that individual for having and maintaining a logical and civil conversation. God bless you all!
same way i feel about the str8 extremist religious groups.
Agreed. Civil, non-emotionally charged conversation between groups should be the standard. Not silencing or bullying.
@@Zayden813 same with self identify helicopter oligarch groups
@skyler oxendine do you receive much hate based on your feelings about Islam?
There’s nothing to agree or disagree with. They simply ARE. Just like you.
They seemed genuine, first time I'd seen someone at these events have a genuine conversation
He
@@shawnbradford2243 They is also grammatically correct, don't let the gender woke people steal the word from normal people 🤣
Because he was raised a Baptist. 😅
@@Damon_At_Forged_Faith yes. But they refers to multiple people. He seems very polite, and I hope he comes to truly know Christ and be saved in Jesus name!
@@juliapcostabr It can, it can also refer to one person, it's been part of the English language for a long time
He seems like he made a poor choice to fit in with a dishonest group of people. No screaming or name calling, I’m truly impressed with this man’s demeanor.
yes homophobics do have bad tempers when they loose
Which man are you referencing? . . . Both are being honest with what they know and feel thus far in their lives. Both are authentic and are not trying to fit in. . . . The Trans person is being honest about their experience. But sadly the trans person is letting hypocrites keep them from seeking Truth. Jesus is the way.
@@christoffesedao3579 Homophobobics are anything but honest. What they know they were told by other religious folk who miss read the bible.....so its still lies, OMG it wasn't that long ago religious folk said mixed race marriages were wrong or that people of colour should not go to church and they got these lies from the bible too as homophobics do.....Homophobics are the ones who won't let them seek the truth! Repent for supporting the homophobic lifestyle....blessings!
@christoffesedao3579 sadly the same system that seems to control all industries has also set up a false veneer of Christianity in the United States with all of these masonically inspired sects here. There are so many. Lds Anglican Baptist etc etc etc you name it. When you grow up in a packaged corporate reality that seems to have a consensus and make sense it becomes near impossible to see a biblical reality even if the core of right and wrong are within the atheist and their spirit probably jives with the true teachings, they just can't see it because they are ignorant and following what they see in the world
I say that to mean it is not the community he chose and the hypocrisy they're that has set the mindset it is society at large before that community started to thrive that set the stage for this. It's bad.
“I don’t celebrate pride. I celebrate humility.” I love it!
so u think its a sin to be proud to follow Jesus?
@brianmattocks We should be happy to follow Jesus, and humble in doing so. Feeling good about yourself is one thing, but being haughty and prideful means you have an alterior motive of self importance over a humble loving heart.
@@MatthewManney yes as most homophobics are haughty and prideful of their sin.
@@pastorbri All people are sinners and its common to be prideful yea
@@MatthewManney no wonder homophobics are so proud of their sin then
Man, that person seemed incredibly honest, sincere, and truly spiritually searching! I pray you keep in contact with them and continue to pray for them!
Homophobics are not honest as they lie
Some of them use kindness as a tool to spread their dangerous bad ideas. Don’t let them wiggle their way into ur sympathy just because they put on the face of kindness.
He seems like a very genuine person, hopefully he comes to Christ, and chooses a life for Him!
Ohhh yessss!
I wish homophobics would come to christ
Amen 🙏
I was once a trans-identified self-described queer person. Now I identify as a daughter of Christ. 😊😊💕💕 there is redemption in Christ always
@@Christ-Is-King_ Amen! God bless you 🙏
I celebrate humility, not pride! ❤
These Pride n.p.c's wouldn't have a clue what the word humility means.
Amen
It isn't humble to say your religion is the only right one and that every other religion is wrong.
@Mr M For the sake of clarity, she wrote, quote... "I celebrate humility, not pride"...End quote. She didn't even state what faith she is. Just out of interest, would you describe yourself as a "progressive" in terms of your political worldview?
@@MrE073 is it safe to say that you think this modern iteration of "Pride" is a virtuous and moral celebration? Is it something you wholeheartedly support?
This channel is VERY refreshing compared to other Christian activists fighting for life or the gospel that are obnoxious, unkind, immature, or otherwise just cause trouble.
Love the way you navigate these conversations. You talk to each person like they’re a human with value and you don’t resort straw-manning or name calling. God bless you and this ministry
You love the bare minimum of having a conversation like an adult? I pity people who waste their only life because they believe without evidence that their superstition is real, good people can explain their beliefs without dogmas.
It sadly seems to be rarer and rarer to see people having a respectful conversation about controversial topics these days.
@@MrE073 "I pity people who waste their only life because they believe without evidence that their superstition is real, good people can explain their beliefs without dogmas."
The irony of you expressing surprise of people having a conversation like an adult and then immediately get absurdly juvenile. I'm guessing objective introspection is not a trait you possess.
@@silverbackhayabusa how EXACTLY is my comment absurdly juvenile? Do you just insult people when you don't have a counter argument? I'd say that's extremely absurd and just shows your cowardice. Plus I wasn't showing surprise, work on your reading comprehension.
@@MrE073 except you can’t explain a Christian belief without expressing the wrongs of sin. Like he said, if you don’t express the wrongs of sin then you are not being a loving Christian. The world doesn’t get to determine what sin is allow and what sin isn’t.
Nice to see someone calm as they talked with you.
yes some homophobics are calm but it is still a sin
@@pastorbriyou may not be using/understanding the meaning of the term “homophobic”correctly
@@josephfarrugia2350 OH I DO OLD BEAN! Maybe you don't?
That’s a rare proper adult conversation! 🙏🏼 🙏🏼 🙏🏼
I think some are dying for a conversation. Especially in this day and age. At least that’s my experience.
God resists the proud, but gives Grace to the humble.
A person who can actually discuss beliefs and opinions freely, something new and refreshing.
There is hope for this person. They can be saved! Please join me in praying for them to open their ears to God.
theres hope for all homophobics if they would repent
@brianmattocks At the end of the day, every persons sin is their own. Homosexuals are not lesser worth because of their sin, but it does need to be recognized for its destructive properties. I can't imagine its hard to see how things are massively worse especially for children, compared to the 90s or early 2000s. This ideology is being taught in schools and now statistically 1 in 5 children identify as LGBT. I'm sure you understand a child has no idea how reality works upon conception, and has to be taught and raised up somehow. During this process, introducing these views only confuses them and teaches them false lines of thinking, that if true, trickle into other realms of thought. If one can be biologically male, but be whatever he wants in his mind, that same gap in logic will be applied across the board. We have a heart breaking number of school shootings rising since BLM and LGBT movements took off. It is all factually funded by large corporations that hold a majority share in the market. They want to see the destruction of humanity, to save the planet for themselves to rule. Every move to make people stop reproducing, by making them gay or kill their child, will be used by these people. It is an evil movement intended by satan and his followers, to destroy. I speak to you from a position of pleading. I know you are intelligent by the content of your replies. But I do believe you are missing the whole picture, and that is ok! You can't know what you don't know, and learning is something that will help you grow and become a loving person that can change lives. I hope you read this and recieve my message with love. I'll be keeping you in my heart ❤️
Amen
@@pastorbriThis man is not afraid of homosexuality. You are inserting phobia into the conversation. Telling people the truth about Yeshua is not anti anyone. That is a deception you have bought into. Yeshua shed His blood for both homosexuals and heterosexuals. All have sinned, and without Yeshua we remain in darkness and separation from The Most High.
Blessings 🙏✝️
@@christoffesedao3579 Dude, homophobia is not being scared of LGBT, its a chosen lifestyle of hate, lies and bigotry. So he has this in spades, as u know he does. Telling lies to LGBT is WRONG! Or maybe u think telling lies is loving? Homophobia is a deception, a deception you have bought into. Irony eh.....Yeshua shed His blood for both homosexuals and heterosexuals. All have sinned, and without Yeshua we remain in darkness and separation from The Most High.
Blessings 🙏✝
What a nice person to talk to. I wish them the best in life and I’m glad that they had this conversation
You could give lessons on conversations with people who don’t agree with you. It’s an art to maintain your cool and allow others to speak and stay on topic and you’re masterful at it. I think all Christians could learn from your example. Truly loving like Jesus would have.
That's the bare minimum, and if your god is all love why does he allow a place of eternal suffering to exist?
@@MrE073free will.
@@MrE073 Because God is righteous.
@@MrE073
Why is eternal punishment wrong, when the sinner chooses to be in a place of eternal torment?
@@1Corinthians13.4_7 because no one is born evil, evil people need to be separated from good people while they are rehabilitated, to say they eternaly have no hope is evil, and punishment in and of itself is unethical.
You just proved why christians are hypocrites and how your god is evil for allowing a place of eternal punishment to exist.
So many Christians could learn a lot from the way you excel in both truth and grace.
well u can not be both homophobic and christian
@@pastorbri The term "homophobia" is a lie.
@@pastorbriyeah you Protestants think making sure no one is saved is “good” you’re so close to satan yet you think you’re following God, you’re missing about 90% of what it takes to be a Christian
@@pastorbri being christian is being homophobic, the bible literally calls it an abomination.
@@pastorbriBeing against sin is not homophobic.
That man was so respectful. I'm very impressed!
He was truly listening to you, very cool to see!
I love how y'all {show us how to} speak the truth in love, as God commands us. May God continue to strengthen your souls, & bless your ministry 🙏☝️❤️
if only they were honest and say homophobia is a sin
Oh there’s nothing irrational about caring for babies. I’ve never met someone who is irrationally in fear of homosexuals.
The most shocking moment was when he said he was trans. I had no idea.
He got jokes 😉
Glad y’all are out there! God bless!
❤❤❤❤❤
Let’s help him out!
I really appreciate being able to see conversations like this. I don't see any news outlets making this a story! These discussions deserve more coverage. Thanks you A.R. for what you do!
I'm amazed at this. You always conduct a polite yet truthful conversation and keep your composure even when those you're conversing with don't. This man wanted to engage in genuine conversation even though there were deep rooted differences in your personal beliefs. I am surprised someone with such an opposing lifestyle was willing to listen to you. Truly great work you're all doing. Thank you and God bless you
yes homophobic lifestyles never normally stay calm do they
You're gracious and gentle beyond words, guys. Keep up the good work. 👍
Anyone else see the free HIV testing sign behind them? Lol. You know your movement is valid when you have to offer free std testing at your festival's! Lol!
Such a great conversation. Thanks for engaging lovingly, but truthfully. Have you guys considered doing a testimony video? I've heard Russel say a few things about his childhood in videos past. I'd love to hear more and how Christ arrested your heart and saved you.
This was an amazing witness. I'd love to see more videos like this.
We get them up pretty regularly on this channel.
I really appreciate your videos. It doesn’t look like you do it just for views. You actually come across as caring. And it encourages people that can do the same and not be afraid.
just a shame he never said homophobia was a sin
@@pastorbri heterophobia, hoplophobia, Didaskaleinophobia, Ecclesiophobia, all phobia's are sins. I find pastors commenting on youtube extra scary but I realize that's a sin, so I am willing to show great courage and respond to your comment, if you are indeed a pastor.
@@jeetime9436 Heterophobia doesn't even exist so don't worry about that.....
Thanks sorry for being a jerk.
@@jeetime9436 thats ok, never support the homophobic lifestyle choice.
The guy with the fan really wanted to be mean…then the Nazi showed his true colors. This group is kind and never treats anyone with disrespect. They trigger those who are convicted by their message. Which shows that evil lives in the people convicted and doesn’t want to let go. Holy Spirit come! Fill every heart with your goodness.
I used to distribute drugs on the street and now I distribute gospels on the street thanks to people like you
Wish I could keep my cool like the way you do, man.
I think Russell would agree it is from the Holy Spirit...not of his own strength.
I wish I could speak as graciously as you. This video is such a blessing.
I thank you, I was leaning towards being Reborn and your videos inspire me, thank you!!
I am Redpilled and Reborn, thanks to good youtube channels☦
Read some ontology, christianity is stupid, full of violence, lies and contradictions.
Amen! Glad you’re here ❤
@@byabbs 💐
Bless you!!!!
God bless the Abolitionist
You advocate for the murder of trannies with your user name but then say god bless? I guess the hypocrisy is on brand with christianity...
This person seems to be quite incredible and obviously has the lord in his heart. He knows because it's shining through him. Almost there ❤
I see humility and innocence in him. I think maybe he received Jesus as a child and then life happened to him. I see qualities of Jesus in him. It’s beautiful.
I love these conversations. Even changed my mind on some things. But I feel like even if you’re a scientifically illiterate atheist, from a purely logical standpoint, this makes the most sense
Kudos to this person for having a conversation
Side note: anyone else love people watching in these videos? (especially at a pride festival)
What a genuine conversation. The ending was the cherry on the cake! God bless!
That dude is down to earth and highly intelligent.
his burrito is getting cold...oh it's popcorn...lol
I wish I could be this kind and loving to my neigbor and share the Gospel in this way
Let’s make July the month of Humility!
That dude in the Brazil shirt that does the roman salute. Unironically hilarious
😂😂😂😂
Bom Dia mein furher 😂
What an ender, I am going to have to use that. Good to hear some of your testimony as well.
This was the first time I've seen someone stay open to civil conversation in a long while. God bless everyone. May they all come to know him as we're all getting to know him. It is a process but with love in your heart you will come to see he was there all along.
This one was very timely for me.
Please pray for my son
God bless
Beautifully done. Thank you for showing us how to love more. The right way. God bless you SOO MUCH!
Happy Humility 😂 oofta that was a bad line my friend 😂😂😂 love the content though what a great example of being salt and light keep up the amazing work guys! Praying for you all!
It was a doozy lol
@@AbolitionistsRising NO BRAIN=NO LIFE=NO MURDER
Happy humility! That was great.
I love the way you talk to people you’re so patient and you actually listen to people and engage in a fruitful conversation.
I know the loud passionate street evangelism is entertaining and crowd drawing but this personal soft loving connection with individuals is what I like to see.
I’m learning so much about engaging with people from this guy - is it Tom? So humble, so calm, speaking truth in love.
I like this conversation. Both let each other speak. Very respectful.
BROTHER GOOD JOB!! I love your heart and humility!! Ive been growing alot in humility! My heart breaks for this dude
What a great convo between you and that trans women. Rarely they are this open to talk about things they disagree with in such a civil, respectable manner. Well done!
“Telling the truth in a way that doesn’t hurt the truth”
that’s a powerful thing
I've met atheists who are anti abortion. It actually makes sense. If you think there is nothing after you die, why would you deny another life for someone to experience?
Because you have a human right to stop sharing your body if that's what you wish to do.
atheism has nothing to do with abortion.
There can be atheists that are pro choice and a atheists that are pro life
@@MrE073 By intentionally poisoning or tearing apart another human being in abortion who most of the time isn’t causing a threat to anyone.
@@boltrooktwo yes, in abortion the cause of death is the baby's inability to sustain his life outside the womb, plus our inability or unwillingness to help. Not that the mother decided to stop sharing her body as it is, within reason, her human right to do so.
@@MrE073 That isn’t the cause of death, their inability to live outside the womb, that isn’t how abortions are performed. It’s the intentional killing by poison or physical tearing of another human being and nobody has the special privilege to do that.
This dude is really cool. Your guys’ conversation was respectful and insightful.
I really liked this video. It’s one of the few times I’ve seen someone have a respectful conversation with you.
I truly respect others who can politely and rationally discuss opposing views. Unfortunately it is very rare in this day and age.
God bless you man, doing things I can’t. It’s easy to say anything you want behind a keyboard but to go out in person and spread the word is completely different.
its just a shame homophobics lie
I love the humility statement hallelujah
Giving the hard truth. Love it. Appreciate your courage.
Love how consistent you are with your words and actions ❤
This guy was so respectful! Props!
Was hoping to see some fireworks, but he was pretty calm. Good conversation
Our next video from this Pride event will have more “fireworks”. Stay tuned.
This person stuck around to listen instead of giving inane arguments. Lots of respect,love and prayers.
The Bible is so accurate. The good will be bad and bad will be good. Celebrating sin is the new normal. Jesus is at the door. God have mercy
This was very calm from both sides. I can be very aggressive against the lgbt agenda and it has hurt people. But I want to stand on the truth in love.
but ur ok with the homophobic agenda that kills people?
Saying but after I have hurt people is ingenuous.
Disgusting parents dragging their kids to this place
Wow, good response right at the end! I've never had anyone wish me Happy Pride (I'm sure it's coming - I live in CA), but now I know how I'll respond. I'll aspire to say it in a loving way; I pray the Spirit will give me the right words to say. What a respectful conversation you had with this individual. The respect went both ways.
I am watching you and these amazing videos to train myself to be as loving and calm and unshakeable as you are in your conversations! I'm learning a lot! Thank you so much! I want to be this brave!
Love that they state ZERO COMMENTS here... what is up with CZcams? I know y'all don't have abortion mills and so you are creative in your signs and the locations you go. So wish you had those so other groups can rebrand for their use. GREAT WORK... God is merciful!
God is a superstition, get educated.
We can make our signs available to other abolitionist groups. I love to modify the designs and include other URLs etc.
I really love how openly and honestly this person interacted with you, I pray they come to Jesus and wish the best for them.
i want to do this at my college campus. i love that you’re spreading the gospel with true genuine love for your neighbor. Love is being honest and admonishing them of the wrath that they will face when they look eye to eye with God on the Day of the Lord. Love is telling them the truth. i want to spread the Gospel like this
The guy jokes about he’s probably not gonna live that long, I hope he doesn’t have suicidal thoughts, but if he does, I hope he find Christ before doing anything lethal
The only way to save these people is to approach them with the love of Christ! God bless you! Great job, plant that seed, I have faith that man will come back to Jesus ❤😊
I pray Jesus meets that man where he’s at and destroys all lies of the enemy in his life.
Been watching your content. Much respect to how you conduct yourself, how you all put yourselves out there, and for your convictions.
"because of the hypocrisies in the churches." fair take. if it were me I'd mention that hypocrisies exist even outside religion, and being an atheist is kinda being in a religion that's godless. i guess the difference would be that they preach atheism as they converse with others, while other religions mostly just pray in a designated site.
That is what happened when the homosexual guy came by and did the Sieg Heil salute. Talked about how he was a likely hypocrite who claims to be loving, openminded, and progressive, yet he is there saluting the third reich.
Good point
God bless y’all brothers
That reaction at the end 😂.. you saved it there bro though. Celebrate Humility. Said it right!
I pray the seed you planted in that persons mind grows and flourishes. 🙏
Beautiful conversation
"Free HIV testing". You know what booth is NOT at most events because it's not needed? A Free HIV testing booth.
I want your stuff all the time I watch all of your videos. Thank you for teaching the way I’ve gone I used to be one of them and I just wanna say thank you
It is so refreshing to see an intelligent conversation between two humans ❤
By his logic, anyone that has a strong desire to do something has no choice and therefore their desires are part of God's creation. So it's ok to do anything as long as your desire is so strong you feel you have no choice.
Exactly. I hope there are more debates on this issue
Good encounter. ❤
This is like my favourite youtube channel now. Humbling. Wholesome. And Christ-like
Very good conversation ! Hope you won his heart!!! Happy humility month, year, life.
Watching you lovingly communicate puts me to shame. I best look inward. Great video thank you for sharing.
This guy in pink is probably the most real and honest person anyone will meet!!!!!! Take note everyone!!!!!
I mean yes but also he was dressed as a woman so not exactly full real. Prayers his confusion is lifted
You have a true gift from God on how to deal with the delicate matters of this world.
God bless you
This man will be saved. He's seeking.
I love how calm and honest this guy is very respectful .
Damn why some of these people have to be such a holes if you don’t agree or like something keep on walking god flipping people off and insulting them tells other what type of person you are.
yes u should see what homophobics do when they loose
@@pastorbriyou’re mixing up “homophobics” with “homosexuals” & “LGBTQ People”.
@@josephfarrugia2350 No you might be as homophobics do tend to be uneducated simple folk.....homophobia is a sin, being born different to heterosexuals is not, there ... was that simple enough for you, blessings!
Great Conversation
Brother God Bless You For Trying To Put Out That Dumpster Fire.
Amazing job my brother- amazing. Much love
Well done Russ ❤
