Atheism playbook: Act like your speculation is factual, ramp it up by speaking boldly, make you seem stupid if you disagree. Rinse and repeat.
Speculation has no basis other than inquiry.
Yet those making the claim to the existence of an authoritative god offer faith, not demonstrable evidence
@@jaydeejohnson7 Speculation is fine. It is pretending you are right without out honestly considering the evidence.
Can you prove you exist against my hyper-cynical setting?
@@jaydeejohnson7 This video is literally discussing some of the evidence
Exactly 💯. Chris doesn't really know what he's talking about give he's not a Christian Apologist or expert.
Awesome video from Brandon with brother Michael Jones from Inspiring Philosophy always speaking FACTS 🔥. I can't take Bill Maher seriously because he's always posturing his false opinions on religious beliefs and theism especially Christianity which he knows very little about and discusses in bad faith 😣. As I've been saying for years SILLY ATHEISTS TRIX ARE FOR KIDS 🤣. Everyone who's lived has suffered pain and suffering.
God created the Heavens and the Earth in 6 days which was a thousand years each Day which was 6000 years in total because a Day to The Lord God is a thousand years as written in 2 Peter and Psalms. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college graduate. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of macro Evolutionary biology whereas I accept micro Evolution like speciation and adaptation but not macro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus.

This.
Thats good of you, because the proportion of religious to non religious shifting extremely quickly. The ability of you to speak bad about people for not believing your religion without penalty is going to come to an end very soon.

@@corning1 Oh, it'll be fun. You'll love it. We won't ban you from jobs directly, it'll just be the hushed whispers when you walk by or the eye roll when your name is mentioned. Its been quite a while since christians have been persecuted....probably since coming to this country. Since then they've been the persecutors, so it'll definately be a different taste in your mouth.
@@robertmorrison107 No, what'll end up happening is that Christianity will simply be replaced with Islam, as that is the fastest growing religion. Atheism has no real staying power. It simply just creates a vacuum.
Just look at the UK. Even Richard Dawkins laments the fact that the UK is becoming culturally more Islamic as opposed to Christianity.
This shows that we should all brush up on our apologetics so we are equipped to give clear and accurate answers for our faith.
Bill Mahr reminds me of something Jesus said "if the blind leads the blind they'll both fall into the pit" Matt 15:14
Agreed

You mean what the anonymous, non-eyewitness author of the gospel claims Jesus said?
---------------------------------------------------------
*"Neither the evangelists nor their first readers engaged in historical analysis. Their aim was to confirm Christian faith (Lk. 1.4; Jn. 20.31). Scholars generally agree that the Gospels were written forty to sixty years after the death of Jesus. They thus do not present eyewitness or contemporary accounts of Jesus’ life and teachings.*
Unfortunately, much of the general public is not familiar with scholarly resources like the one quoted above; instead, Christian apologists often put out a lot of material, such as The Case For Christ, targeted toward lay audiences, who are not familiar with scholarly methods, in order to argue that the Gospels are the eyewitness testimonies of either Jesus’ disciples or their attendants. *The mainstream scholarly view is that the Gospels are anonymous works, written in a different language than that of Jesus, in distant lands, after a substantial gap of time, by unknown persons, compiling, redacting, and inventing various traditions, in order to provide a narrative of Christianity’s central figure-Jesus Christ-to confirm the faith of their communities."*
*As scholarly sources like the Oxford Annotated Bible note, the Gospels are not historical works (even if they contain some historical kernels).*
*"Majority of Scholars agree: The Gospels were not written by Eyewitnesses - Escaping Christian Fundamentalism"*

Sounds like Chris, not a trained historian, is well intended and doing the best he can in responding to a Bill Maher weed enhanced curveball... I'll cut him some slack.
Fred Hoyle: "The reason why scientists like the "Big Bang" is because they are overshadowed by the Book of Genesis. It is deep within the psyche of most scientists to believe in the first page of Genesis". Just in case you don't know who Fred Hoyle was, Fred Hoyle was a professor for physic and the father of the steady state theory of the universe. Mr Hoyle was also the one you named the Bid Bang Theory. He insisted that the naming was not meant to be derogatory. There are many physicist who have stated the same, atheists and theists.
He would never interview a real Christian apologists
Most of us wouldn't do much better
Yea I can relate to Chris Distefano lol We want to share the gospel and all the proof we’ve heard but when we get pressed we buckle - At least he planting seeds tho ya know :))
@@jacobe2995 Why should he, apologists aren't good at history either take this video for example. Historians are pretty clear that most of the 10 sources cited are terrible and the ones that remain aren't very likely true either
Don't make fun of someone for mispronouncing a word or name. It means they learnt it from reading.
This guy is clearly new to reading and to faith. Cut him some slack.
True. In fact, both pronunciations are wrong. The same way our pronunciation of Jesus’s name is wrong.
These are not English names so you can’t be smug about which syllable needs to be stressed to the point where you’re almost pretending not to know who he’s talking about.

Thank you for bringing Mike Jones. I've been watching his reels debunking people on the internet. The guy is always straight to the topic and most importantly he adds the citations of the books and evidence whenever he backs something.
Two of my favorite CZcamsrs, let’s go
I think many people don't realise that the Bible itself is a collection of actual *verified historical documents.*
If there was more explanation surrounding this, I think it would clear a lot of things up.
Verified? I must have missed that, which of the authors are confirmed historian by other historians of the time?
@@friisteching3433 Luke, to name one.
@@elizabethryan2217the author of Luke-Acts is anonymous.
@@friisteching3433 Yeah, God said it is all true🤣🤣🤣
@@friisteching3433the Roman Pilot has some things for you.
This is too painful to sit through. Good work fellas
The evidence for the accounts of the Gospel being earlier than 70AD is that when Luke wrote the book of Acts, he was writing about the acts of the Apostles, and Paul was a major character in his book. Paul died in the 60s AD as well as other disciples which are not in the book. At the end of the Book of Acts, Paul was still alive not to mention the temple was still standing. If Luke wrote this after 70AD then why wouldn't he have told about Paul's death and why would he still have the temple standing?
For the same reason the original ending of Mark doesn't contain resurrection appearances. IP oddly makes that argument even though he also argues that arguments from silence are fallacious.
Look up the below.
*"When Were the Gospels Written and How Can We Know? - The Doston Jones Blog"*
*"How Did The Gospel Writers Know? - The Doston Jones Blog"*
*"Yes, the Four Gospels Were Originally Anonymous: Part 1 - The Doston Jones Blog"*
*"Are Stories in the Bible Influenced by Popular Greco-Roman Literature? - The Doston Jones Blog"*
the issue with that is that's mid-to-late 60s ad with the timestamp less than 5 years... is it an argument of silence, wrote it right before he received words of Paul's death
The combo I didn’t know I needed
The Case for Christ is a great book and movie.
Ok, sure, maybe Chris didn’t get a lot correct but to see someone so excited about Jesus is way more inspiring than if he got it all “right”. Give me a Chris any day over someone who gets all the answers right.
He has the spirit in him, he just needs to sharpen his knowledge.
You can be both too 😂
Will Bill really read "The Case For Christ?" I would bet most assuredly, he will not!
Of course he won't. Atheist are not at all hungry for truth as they claim to be.
IP don't forget St. Spyridon the Wonderworker who performed THE miracle at the Council of Nicea, which cemented the Orthodox position and actually ended the dispute between the intellectuals who were arguing back and forth with no end. Vaistina Vaskrese ☦️.
The extent of Mahr's ignorance is astounding, and his confidence in his ignorance is incredible. Atheists, are you proud that this is your level of intellectual engagement?
I'm not even sure its ignorance as much as it is bias. We all process information through a lens of bias, but Maher seems to take it to some kind of extreme. I think he starts with his conclusion and just simply filters out information that contradicts it. Then, all he's left with is whatever information confirms his conclusion. What I'd like to know is how he comes to his conclusions. Bill Maher needs to write a book about epistemology. I'd parody it "So what I do is I hear something that sounds like nonsense and it shouldn't be taken seriously. Then I look into it and consult various experts so I can explain to people why everyone who disagrees with me is kind of an idiot."
@@russ4moose Thanks. I think it's a bias that springs from ignorance (or vice versa, perhaps).
Maher is just some comedian. Meanwhile Christian apologists like InspiringPhilosophy mislead people by saying our oldest biographies of Alexander are from centuries later, ignoring that they cite contemporary accounts by Alexander's campaign historian Callisthenes; Alexander's generals Ptolemy and Nearchus; Aristobulus, a junior officer on the campaigns; and Onesicritus, Alexander's chief helmsman
Please don't lump us atheists in with the insufferable and pretentious Bill Maher. He's clearly not well informed on this topic, neither is Chris but he's trying to learn and, while I reject his religious views, he's trying to educate himself while Bill repeats nonsense and only intends to mock like a child.
There isn't a serious scholar alive who doubts that Jesus existed. It's pretty well accepted.
@@russ4moose little off topic but have you seen his defense of the Democratic Party that "he" regularly uses
The formula being whatever issue is related to it+ the accountability of the related issue falling on Democrats+ immediately resorts to saying "but what about Trump"
Note: I'm not saying this as a trump supporter or any other political affiliation, I just noticed a pattern with him specifically
Perhaps the single greatest evidence that Jesus not only existed but was monumental in the shaping of world history is the fact the world defines time by the date of his death and a good part of the world celebrates his birth to this very day. No other person in existence has this much influence.
_"the world defines time by the date of his death"_
No- by an incorrect calculation of the date of his birth
_"a good part of the world celebrates his birth to this very day"_
Yes, aided by a cunning practice of the early Church, attaching Christian meaning to solar or agricultural festivals.
Claiming some authenticity by mentioning AD is really amusing. Just look at the names of the days of the week and months.
@@bearde_mut9731 Only by convention. AD is Latin for Anno Domini and BC just means Before Christ. It's just that Christians decided to use this convention and force everyone else to as well. Pretty much the entire western world uses the pagan naming convention for the days of the week. So I don't know what your point is.
@@bearde_mut9731 Attaching Christian meaning to solar or agricultural festivals _"has been thoroughly debunked"._
Seriously? The main one which demonstrably *isn't* is Easter, because of the perceived need to distance it from Passover.

Awesome video from Brandon with brother Michael Jones from Inspiring Philosophy always speaking FACTS 🔥.

As I've been saying for years SILLY ATHEISTS TRIX ARE FOR KIDS 🤣. Everyone who's lived has suffered pain and suffering.

This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college graduate. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history.

Good video. Well done for correcting things that should be corrected but often aren't.
I remember when _Religulous_ was first released. Maher was/is just an unbeliever who simply wanted/wants to mock Christians and their faith (without recognizing that he, too, has a faith of his own - he worships himself). The point of _Religulous_ was to mock Christianity by trying to be punny and saying that religion is ridiculous (thus, the portmanteau “regligulous”). Thing is, Maher just made _himself_ look ridiculous through his massive ignorance.
But he still maintains a level of influence in our culture, despite that.
The internet demonstrates that the stupider things are, the more popular they tend to be.

Thank you, Brandon & Mike, this was great. Just an extended thought to add, though I’m unsure how pervasive this approach is, but a dating of the Gospels (and other NT documents) I’ve been taught by several independent teachers is roughly (and @InspiringPhilosophy alludes to some of this as well):
• Acts of the Apostles is before the sacking of Jerusalem and the Temple destruction (70 C.E.), or Acts would have mentioned it. Luke (Acts’ author) made a habit of being historically detailed; not mentioning it would have been inconsistent, particularly with an event that was very centrally relevant to his writing both historically and as fulfilled prophecy, impact on the faith, implications affirming Temple sacrifice was no longer necessary (a point of contention among early Christians), etc.
• Somewhat redundant, but corroborating, but due to the abrupt ending of Acts, not including the significant deaths of Peter and Paul (the two main figures of this book), it’s also likely and logical that Acts was written before their deaths ~66 C.E.
• Luke’s Gospel predates Acts, a part one of a two part work; possibly early 60’s C.E. And Luke also begins with references to much that has been said and written already, and now he’s taking a turn at writing.
• Matthew’s Gospel is either precisely contemporary or a bit earlier than Luke - there was some logic I’m not currently recalling that makes a case for Matthew being no later/about the same publication date than Luke (agreed upon by historians); but also possibly earlier (perhaps he’s a part of what was “previously written” according to Luke, if not only Paul’s letters since Luke says, paraphrasing, “many…have written” before him, not just one person); regardless, following the previous bullets, Matthew also is about 60 C.E., possibly late 50’s.
• This puts Mark in the mid/late 50’s, 20-25 years after Jesus’ ministry and death (though Casey’s proposal of the 40’s is interesting and consistent here, too, and even better).
• Much of Paul’s writings are earlier.
• And the Creeds that Paul and others reference are earlier than those sources.

This is in response to the part of the conversation around this video’s minute 20:00, to help strengthen the points the guys are making)
I’m sorry I don’t have more or all of the specifics, but I’m traveling and my class notes are at home. However, I can find them if needed.
I tend to believe much of the New Testament was written earlier than many historians claim. There are even books 📚 that argue for a pre-70 AD dating of Revelation, based on the book's own internal evidence.
That's like saying Mark was written before the Resurrection appearances since the original ending doesn't have them, and it's an argument from silence which IP and apologists like to assert is fallacious.
Hello,@@tomasrocha6139, thank you for the reply, appreciate the inquiry and conversation. Comparing Luke-Acts to a different work and assigning “argument from silence” disregards the context mentioned. Reading the Gospels and Luke-Acts in full reveals Mark’s style of writing, audience, and purpose differs from Luke’s. What’s being proposed with this dating logic, in part, is looking at Luke and Acts, considering their content, detail, purpose, author, audience, and style, and drawing a logical conclusion from that.
This isn’t suggesting a slam-dunk, absolute closed-case approach either, as scholars are still hashing this out. I am just sharing a logical approach to the dating given the works being considered. And while I remain open to other explanations (as this logic I shared is itself relatively new to me), I’m unaware of a more logical case for dating the Gospels later; so currently this is the most compelling rationale for dating that I’m aware of.
I am listening to atheists for 4 years. Actually the first one I meet was my physic teacher in grade 10 to 13. I came to the conclusion there are two types of atheists. One group is poorly informed. This group can be convinced by facts. And the evidence for God and Jesus is over whelming if you choose to look. The second group is the group that for some reason does not want there to be a god. They most of the time lie when confronted with the facts like Dawkins, Krause and others. Some as my physics teacher are honest enough to admit that the evidence for god is overwhelming. My physics teacher taught my class that if the Big Bang theory is true, then god exists.
Atheism is just derived from critical thinking. Nothing more. You can’t prove your claims. So we don’t believe you.

@InspiringPhilosophy I'd love to see you sit down with Jimmy Akin to go over his arguments for the early dating of the gospels.
8:39 Quintus Curtis Rufus also wrote a biography of Alexander the great in the first century CE. One of the earliest biographies we have of Alexander was written by Diodorus Siculus in the 1st century BCE (100-1) meaning it was written almost 300 years after Alexander's death
They used earlier, now lost sources. Contemporaries who wrote accounts of Alexander's life include his campaign historian Callisthenes; Alexander's generals Ptolemy and Nearchus; Aristobulus, a junior officer on the campaigns; and Onesicritus, Alexander's chief helmsman

IP is awesome. Respect. So glad he took time to guest on Daily Dose even while sick 🤒
First thank you for this edifying video and arguments from truth.
Yet I must say in the Dead Sea Scrolls there was an entire Isaiah Scroll recovered among many other Books, they were found to be close to a direct match to what we have today. Lee Strobel is great but brother J.Warner Wallace really drives the nail home. The amount of research and evidence he's included in his books is truly staggering.
Below is a long read, I'm simply doing as instructed 2 Cor 15:20. If you don't want to read it just skim on by.
The length is as short as I could make it considering the subject.
These other books and writings from antiquity are held up as truth and in some cases factual history. Yet there's not one of them that include eyewitness accounts.
These other books/poems and there evidence/sources:
Second most common manuscript document Homer's Iliad meaning there are more copies of it than any other secular writing/document from antiquity of which only 643 exist dating from 13th century AD. Homer is believed to have wrote it in the 8th century BC.
The Gallic Wars of Cesar in 1st century BC, there are only 10 manuscripts of that in existence dating over 1000 years after they were supposed to have been written.
Herodotus wrote of history and is known as one of the first historians 5th century BC of which 8 manuscripts exist, yet they are from more than 1400 to 1500 years after he lived.
History of the Peloponnesian War written by Thucydides. There are only 8 manuscripts that are from 1300 years after he supposedly wrote his account.
Side notes on other religions:
Book of Mormon and their various writings prior to the 1820-30's = 0 as in nothing has been found to support any of it except where it is clearly plagiarized from Scripture.
Of the 31 different qurans that can still be found today there are a great many differences in major doctrine, such as greet or kill, some 93,000+. All of those were written far to late, 180 years or more after their prophet supposedly lived. We find early Jewish and Christian Scripture that has been altered to fit a narrative of power hungry, warmongering, lustful men in those books and a god who supports such activities.
Mecca didn't exist in the time they claim their prophet lived and he is supposedly based out of that city. It is also supposed to be the eternal city, the first city on earth where Adam and Eve came down, (another claim against Scripture). Almost all early mosques face Jerusalem/Petra and not Mecca. Mecca simply does not exist on any early maps or trade records from that time.
Now let's look at Biblical proofs:
We have a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report super natural events that took place, fulfilling specific prophecies, claiming that those writings are via divine inspiration, not men alone.
Jesus Christ healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, cast out demons, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts.
The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels, (yet we have no records of anyone disputing it actually happened). John tells us that there were many more signs/miracles than are recorded in the Gospels and that the books would have filled the entire earth had they been written down.
There can be no doubt as to the accuracy of our current Bibles as is proven via all the source fragments, scrolls, papyri, codex' dating all the way back to before Christ around 700 BC for the OT and between 60 to 125 AD for the NT, (the earliest of those are still being tested). We have more proof for God's Word than any other written word in history, it is by order of magnitudes more.
The early Church Fathers prior to 325 AD:
Those known as the Anti-Nicene Fathers writings contain over 32,000 quotes from the New Testament from which we could reconstruct the entire/complete NT just from those alone. They also contain over 19,000+ quotes from the Gospels prior to 325 AD, which again allow us to reconstruct the Gospels from them.
The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of 66 Books all of which are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of Books there are over 40 authors but only one Divine Author who links them all together, the Holy Spirit. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word.
The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 46 to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying between 95 to 100 AD.
Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on:
In 3 Languages
On 3 Continents
There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting sources for the New Testament.
5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages have been produced from these sources.
18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages
Some of the oldest sources date from 60-125AD the oldest of which are during it's being recorded or within decades of the completion of all the books that became the New Testament.
We have the writings of those such as Clement, Ignatius, Irenaeus, Ephraim, Polycarp and many others. Those that had learned directly at the feet of the Apostles or the immediate generation after them. There is no game of telephone to be found here. We know what Jesus said and did directly from the Apostles who were with Him, they saw, lived with, heard and witnessed all these things directly from and with Him for more than 3 years.
Those asking for "Scientific Proof" of the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent.
Scientific Method is basically:
1) Has to be observable.
2) Has to be testable.
3) Has to be repeatable.
Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method. You must use the historical method based on:
Eyewitnesses accounts.
Documents from that time or as close as possible.
Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible.
Archaeological finds that provide supporting evidence such as the Pilot Stone, a man that was thought a creation of the Bible until proof was uncovered.
Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period.
Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue, if they did why has no record of it been found?
Mathew = an educated Jewish man
He is thought to have spoken multiple languages due to his former profession as a tax collector.
His Gospel is written more to the Jewish audience, that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are more references to the Old Testament in his Gospel than the others.
Mark = The shortest of the Gospels.
It is very direct, his Gospel also contains much of the Apostle Peter's testimony and his eyewitness account/experiences of/with our Lord. It is believed by many to be the earliest of the Gospels written between 48 to 53AD. The date of 70AD held by critical scholars is the latest possible date that can be taken from the evidences we have. Even with a date of 70AD that is just 40 years after the Cross of Christ that is within the lifetime of actual eyewitnesses.
Luke = Historian
A man of science, a physician, an educated man, he carefully researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak, that were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. Those such as the Apostles and possibly His mother Mary, he recorded Elizabeth and Mary's songs. There were also many other eyewitnesses that were still alive at that time. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end from natural causes or martyrdom. He was inspired via the Holy Spirit to write them down before they could be lost or perverted by time.
John = Evangelist
John is organized around 8 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth.
All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus or the resurrected Christ. Even Paul whom Jesus came to on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. The Apostle Paul also tells of receiving special teaching from Christ Himself during his time in the desert, during a time period before he met the Apostles, (recorded in the Book of Acts 26:16). This would have been the resurrected Christ giving the Apostle Paul direct revelation.
Non believer's historical documents and other finds show or corroborate many things that are in Scripture. Yet none of them prove any of it false but instead strengthen it. With the number of archaeological excavations, (25,000+ and counting to date), it is only a matter of time until we see more ancient biblical texts and supporting evidence found.
The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed, the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed.
The Bible is the very Word of God, it is a collection of eyewitness accounts written by other eyewitnesses.
Take care and God Bless...
Yes, we do have archeological evidence for Jesus. We have all the archeological locations of the NT and most of the OT. We also have historical, archeological, and scientific evidence for the resurrection of Jesus in the Shroud of Turin. Look it up!
"archaeological locations" that would be evidence of the locations.
"Turin" scientists was allowed to date it once, didn't fit the date of Jesus. Since then there has been different claims regarding the Shroud, not confirmed by actual scientists.
Wrong. Look at the latest dating and what corrections it was, then speak. Don't lie or pretend ignorance!

As I've been saying for years SILLY ATHEISTS TRIX ARE FOR KIDS 🤣. Everyone who's lived has suffered pain and suffering.
God created the Heavens and the Earth in 6 days which was a thousand years each Day which was 6000 years in total because a Day to The Lord God is a thousand years as written in 2 Peter and Psalms. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college graduate. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of macro Evolutionary biology whereas I accept micro Evolution like speciation and adaptation but not macro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus.

You’re not understanding the argument. Jihadis and cultists die for a lot they believe to be true, but they do not die for a lie they know to be false, as would be the case for the apostles who were the eyewitnesses perpetuating the claims that Jesus did miracles and had risen from the dead and appeared to them.
God bless this channel tbh, I love the content 🙏
Bill Maher is basially the outlet for the CEOs to show their contempt for their audience.
Father in heaven let me go on his show one day 😇
Paul mentions meeting with the disciples and that they discussed details of gentiles becoming Christians Acts 15. Galatians 2:1-10 as well.
Paul is the earliest source we have and the only source from a known historical figure within a century of Jesus’ death. He never met Jesus and never mentions his ministry or anything he did explicitly in the physical world.
I have read some very scholarly work that there is good evidence that the synoptic gospels were written before the destruction of the temple in 70AD and that Paul could have written as early as as within a few years of the death of Christ
Great to see you teaming up with my favourite not-so-friendly neighbourhood philosopher 😄
There may not be "non" Christian sources who attest to the resurrection, but there certainly are plenty of Non Christian, extrabiblical sources who attest to the empty tomb.
Also, the DSS include the books already included in the OT. They corroborate the witness of the Masoretic Text. They do not reveal clandestine editing.
Go on then, which non-Christian extrabiblical sources attest to the empty tomb? I'm not talking about people who just read the Gospels and decided it was plausible. I'm talking contemporary or near-contemporary sources. A contemporary historian would be a good pick.
Titans! To have both in one video!!!! Yes!
im reading st augustines confessions, and what inspiring philosophy is right about the councils part in canonizing the bible. They were more focused on separating themselves from the arian heretics.
I have to thank Bill Maher personally. He was the first true anti-theist I was ever exposed to and it gave me a strong impression of what mainstream atheists were like.
I was always struggling with my faith. But Bill Maher put things into perspective by making me realize that it’s not just religious figures that act self-righteous and ignorant. Made me try to see what they actually stand for and advocate for, rather than just assume they’re a certain way just because of their beliefs.
The Turin Shroud which is of course the most comprehensively studied religious artifact known to man contains what I considered an extraordinary amount of evidence confirming the Gospel accounts of the crucifixion and resurrection we have available. The carbon dating issue is no longer considered an obstacle after the release of the carbon dating data some 20 plus years and legal proceedings later. I would love for Michael to do a deep dive into the Shroud.
NOT of resurrection, sir. Crucifixion, not of resurrection though.
@@DM-dk7js Actually there could be evidence for the resurrection as well. If the Shroud is in fact the true burial cloth of Jesus then scholars cannot account for what made the image. They believe that it was very high intensity radiation of some kind that was the cause of the image. The only radiation we have tied to in scripture is from the Angel in Matthew 28:" 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. " However, it is postulated that the radiation that caused the image came from Jesus himself when he was resurrected. For that we have not scriptural evidence however,
@@DM-dk7js I disagree. Quickly: The image itself for instance that penetrates only 200-500 nanometers of the cloth and is after the blood stains. The leading theory proposed by physicists both believers and non-believers is radiation on a massive scale. Second, the absence of displacement of blood on the cloth which suggests that the cloth was not removed from the body. Third, the blood Fibrinoulisis ceases after 30-36 hours. Cumulatively, evidence for the resurrection. There is more but I'll keep it short.
Funny enough we do have archeological finds of graves and locations from the Bible, like James his grave stone or bone boxes of key people , recently Frank Turrek did an entire piece on it. It was shocking
Not of jesus, and no one serious treats Frank Turek as a serious man
@bearde_mut9731
There is no archaeological evidence of jesus at all. Like none. None of his life, none of his tomb etc. It's a bit broader than your perverse response
As for Frank Turek its not hyperbolic he has shockingly poor logic and argumentation. Do yourself a favour and find a decent apologist to defend your faith.
@bearde_mut9731 no I said no one serious takes him seriously. I'm sorry that apologists in general are so poor.
No offence but you don't get to detract from Tureks issues. If his issues are common to 'well respected' apologists then they shouldn't be respected at all. Decent apologists well that's a question, trent horn is philosophically quite literate, and luke barnes does a decent job.
Yes your response was perverse, you speculatively took my comment to mean some narrow version of what it could be.
No only a small group of theologians consider the garden tomb to be jesus tomb. This is a highly controversial claim that many actual archaeologists would say is unsubstantiated.
My standards of evidence are actually quite low, it would be trivially easy for god to provide an example counter to modern science that would convince me. That could be any number of things.
@@francisa4636if your standard of evidence is trivially easy then this should be so hard, why dont you ask God to reveal Himself to you,' In the name of Jesus I ask that you reveal yourself to me, if you are real' ask genuinely it's not so hard

So epic that you two are talking about this. I think that the misinformation spread about Christ and someone with “swagger” or “charisma” saying something false in front of an audience is one of the biggest issues in our world today concerning belief in Christ.
Jesus is the ultimate slave herder. Read your book. Isiah, Deuteronomy, Revelation say it in black and white. I guess you highlighters stay far from those pages. The Israelites will own you in heaven. You will work for them. It's right there in your book.
Also, when you go to heaven, God will strip you of all the love you had for your loved ones who didn't care to sell their souls to be eternal slaves. You will never be sad, or feel sorrow for your loved ones who are being eternally tortured.
In short, you're selling your soul to a God that will wipe your mind and hand you over to your new slave masters when you die. He even wrote it down in the bible for you to read yourself.
Let's call it his terms of service contract. Imagine willingly giving your soul to be a slave, because you didn't read the contract. 🤦
God brings the Israelites to heaven,...
Jesus brings the slaves.
To really believe in Jesus one must also have a willingness to deny themselves. Even Nicodemus confirmed Jesus but was unwilling to lay down his life for Him. We have to realize some people want to deny Jesus so they can live by there own standards. I pray they all someday enjoy the peacefulness of living for Christ and others and not just for themselves.
Michael from inspiring philosophy has been a great source for me over the past 7 or 8 years.
His channel, this channel, and several others are the reason I’m teaching an apologetics class next year to high schoolers.
Thank you guys for all you do.
That’s awesome!
@@Daily_Dose_Of_Wisdom yeah, I’m really excited about it.
Been working on the outline for the class over the past several months. It’s an intro class, so we’re starting out with apologetic terminology, arguments for Gods existence, and will eventually watch debates and discuss in class,
I’ll never be a guy who can get up on stage and rattle off facts, but I can certainly train up the next generation to do so.
And I’ll obviously be giving out a list of all the apologetic channels I watch on CZcams.😁

The Bible may be a collection of various sources 7:09. You will NEVER convince a nonbeliever that the Bible is a source for anything. They have already convinced themselves that the Bible is not credible. Quoting from it is wasted energy for a nonbeliever.
This is true… partly. I think the Bible is a bad place to start with the unbeliever. That’s why God has given us proof of Himself outside of the Bible. Once you present this to the unbeliever you can then show them how the secular evidence backs up the bible
@@Danarchy3 Exactly. There are a lot of hurtles to get over first.
I think it needs to be clarified WHICH CLAIM the Bible does or doesn’t provide evidence for.

@@DM-dk7js watch Lennox, Craig, etc.
I remember reading in the Church Fathers that Mark and Luke were part of the 70 sent out by Jesus in Luke 10. If this historical evidence is true, then both Mark and Luke were eyewitnesses. Traditionally, John Mark mentioned in Acts has been considered the same as the author of the gospel of Mark, and if that is true, he would be an apostle because of his apostolic mission with his uncle Barnabas the apostle mentioned in Acts.

Why would the Jewish oral teachings even talk about Jesus if he didn't exist? The fact that they talk about him in such a negative way is proof in itself. Muslims speak of Jesus. It is absurd to think Jesus didn't exist....
But believing he was a real person doesn't save you.... You must put your faith in his righteousness and what he did for us on the cross. God in the flesh.
Yeah, that last step, thats the faith one. I think it is likely he existed. I think its likely he was crucified. I think its also likely somebody dug his ass up after buried, hid his body and claimed he was resurrected to try to put a thumb in the eye of the romans.
I just do what he commands. Faith and relationships are weird terms
"There is more proof for Jesus than the holocaust." Would be a funny direction to take it. Bill would piss himself trying not to upset his bosses lol😂
@@fasted8468 how do you know "he" is the one telling you to do something? Faith.
@@bearde_mut9731 "Jesus existed" isn't a religious claim. It's an historical claim. That said, the presupposition that all religious claims and beliefs are entirely fictitious is completely absurd. Even if naturalism is true, you would expect at least some of the claims made by some religions to happen to coincide with reality.
10:02 this is a good point coming from Bill. Humans can twist the words and do whatever they like as long as they have free will to do whatever they like!
Hebrews 12:2 and Romans 14:4 argue against that idea.
Faith is a gift from God, (Eph 2:8), and there are many promises in Scripture that point to once someone truly has faith, in Him, they will continue to and can not simply walk away.
John 10:29 followed by John 10:30
For those who do walk away, 1 John 2:19
Also Hebrews 10:29 is a very stern warning to those who hear then ignore the offer of salvation.
Just saying.
And as far as Bill and those like him.
Their problem is the unwillingness to accept God's Word and by extension Him, that or do they continue to lean on their own understanding and the imaginations of men.

(Rom 5:10, Rom 5:11, 2 Cor 5:18, 2 Cor 5:21, Col 1:21-22, 1 Peter 3:18 and many more).

I write these things with love and as instructed in (2 Cor 5:20).
Take up and read.

About the authors of the Gospels Father Stephen De Young among other scholars believe that the four Gospels were indeed written by the Authors we see laid out in our Bible. The reason why the higher criticism of some scholars think that someone else wrote them is the fact that all four authors were strongly influenced by the Aramaic way of thinking and shows in the translation into Greek or even the Greek would be influenced by there cultural way of thinking.

The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of macro Evolutionary biology whereas I accept micro Evolution like speciation and adaptation but not macro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant
Worked with Chris on the grounds crew of the US Tennis Open in Flushing Queens, was always a funny interesting guy!
Maher used to be a paid speaker as an atheist. His opinion shows he doest look into anything himself. The bad part of it is he is Jewish himself. It shows what Jesus said is absolutely true. They don't know what they believe in.
i didn’t realize Christ really existed until i was in my 30s.
Thank you! I am blessed.Much love and respect. May GOD bless you both 🙏 ❤️
Great 👏🏼
Mythicists are the flat earthers of history.
I’m so glad I don’t get my theology and history from comedians.
Are you talking about Christian mysticism?
@@corning1 No, Jesus mythicism (Jesus Myth Theory). People who adhere to this belief believe that Jesus never existed, or that the evidence for his existence is very weak. There is not a single serious historian or biblical scholar that believes this.
Even Bart Ehrman said that mythicists look foolish.
@@user-kv1po2dm5j oh I completely agree it’s a joke. Lennox confronted Dawkins about this in a debate and he cowered like the clown he was for putting that in his book.
@@user-kv1po2dm5j oh I misread. You said myth, not myst.
@@corning1 You’re good lol.
I remember watching that debate. Some of the things Dawkins said were just crazy…
I don’t typically like Protestants because of their blasphemy and false doctrines, but I do like this channel and the host. I do pray he will eventually come home to Orthodoxy. God bless you all.
Just noticing: When talking about the early councils like a Nicea, @inspiringphilosophy still makes a difference between catholic and orthodox. There was no difference back then. If the Aeriens had their way, we would have the first protest/split back then. For the rest, Great info
He was using orthodox as adjective, not referring to the Eastern Orthodox church.
Good on Chris for taking this moment in the limelight to spread the gospel to an obviously hostile unbeliever.
So cool to see Jesus’ name proclaimed all over the internet.
Chris should have told Bill that he's not there to convince him, just to show him that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
I believe The holy spirit is working in bill mahrs life. It would be a blessing if bill turned to christianity in the coming years.
Hi Daily dose of Wisdom! Thanks for the history its interesting. Just wondering if you have come into the knowledge about christmas and easter how they are corrupted by pagan heritage? Leading on from there we can check the Bible and see that The Eternal instructed His people to NOT honor Him in the way of the pagans.
Deuteronomy 12:31-32
Just thought you might like to check it out, shalom.
Luke 25:1
“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”
ATHEISM and the ANTI-CHRISTS bring DISHONOR and ETERNAL DEATHS to MANKIND
The Satanic LIE and false claim that God and Gods don't exist
and
the Satanic LIES and false teachings of the anti-Christs about "hellfire", "afterlife", "immortality of the souls", "Armageddon", "Trinity", "rapture", and "reincarnation"
will
definitely bring nothing but dishonor, disgrace, shame and ETERNAL DEATHS to all Atheists, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and fanatics of all kinds of Religions
The KING and his LOVING, KIND, and MERCIFUL GOD and HEAVENLY FATHER
Jesus Christ KNOWS
that all persons on earth who honor and obey him as their loving, kind, and merciful Master and Heavenly King
and believe his teachings too about the "Kingdom of God" and "Resurrection of the Dead"
written in Luke 4: 43 and John 11: 25, 26
are clearly
NOT Atheists, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, or members of any kind of Religion
but
his lowly, ordinary, kind, considerate, and respectful Followers on earth
who
are definitely worthy and deserving of his loving, kind, and merciful GOD and Father's favor and reward of ETERNAL LIFE and existence on earth without sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and death as written in Revelation 21: 3, 4.
Jesus Christ KNOWS
that his teaching about the "Resurrection of the Dead"
is
his GOD and Father's guarantee that loving, kind, considerate, and respectful persons on earth who died recently and thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Job, Naomi, Ruth, King David, his Followers and disciples, and many others
will
all be RESURRECTED back to life in the right and proper time so they can live and exist on earth forever as submissive and obedient citizens and subjects of the "KINGDOM of GOD"
and fully enjoy his and his GOD and Father's eternal love, kindness, goodness, generosities, compassions, favors, and blessings for eternity
under his loving and kind rulership, guidance, and protection as his GOD and Father's Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth as written in Revelation 11: 15.
Come in to play today in an important way. I almost left right then
❤ 3:34
Amen 🙏🙏🙏
Chris did hit on an important point I hadn't heard before. In regards to this game of telephone atheists talk about, the apostles didn't whisper what they heard and knew to a few people, they proclaimed to everyone and anyone who would listen the gospel which they themselves had witnessed. The game then became not telephone but each person who heard the apostles proclaiming what they heard and being fact checked by every other person who had also directly heard the apostles. If you really want to imagine it as people whispering one to another its more like the two people whispering to a hundred people individually then the whole hundred discussing whether they agreed with one another. Add to that how important the message was and how carefully it would have been guarded, not to mention paper copies, and this telephone idea becomes truly absurd.
It will come a day we all will see the truth. Some of us need to be ready to be wrong.
Why would you even ponder the idea that Bill Maher is an intellectual?
The pain on Michael’s face at 19:07, when he mentioned that the author’s got their account from Josephus😂
I'm interested to find out where Bill Mahr gets his information. He's been wrong on many things for years. And has he interviewed an actual scholar? (taking nothing away from Chris. He's just new to the faith, it sounds like)
I think what that guy meant by “archeological” evidence that Jesus existed was the actual historic sites and cities in the story of Jesus. I.e. the story of Jesus doesn’t read as mythological like “Jesus who lives in the land of Oodliepalooza”.
Archaeology, Jesus and his Contemporaries: Caiaphas Ossurary, Pilate Inscription. Herodian shards with his name on them, coin Inscriptions, Nazareth Inscription related to Matthew 27-Jesus' death-open tombs of saints and Emp Claudius reaction within 10 years of events. See Dr. Clyde Billington research.
That is why his jokes about Trump & Republicans are so short, but his commentaries about leftists & Democrats are longer & more detailed.
His short jokes are assumed, but lacking evidence vs having plenty of evidence to use against the left.
Christ won't ever be won over by facts, which is why I don't feel it necessary to argue much of anything about Jesus to non-believers
The Shroud of Turin is one of the best pieces of evidence for the resurrection due to the supernatural way in which the image of Jesus appeared on the cloth. Unfortunately, many otherwise well-informed Christians fail to study this topic.
Even the Ethiopians understand that books like Enoch are part of a sort of subcanon, they call it the Broader Canon, and it's not to be taken as sacredly as the Narrow Cannon, which is pretty much identical to the Protestant Bible, though the Broader Canon is to be given some deference & reverence much like other Apocrypha.
I think a problem occurs when a lot of christians become believers. Which I whole heartily believe and know you can be a dedicated believer in christ and not be very much educated at all in terms of history and theology or even care about every little detail. You can still thrive in knowing christ solely from the bible, and I'll go as far as to say, even just verses alone.
The problem really happens when you want to share your enthusiasm with someone and end up tangling with some word wizard of an athiest that your really not quite ready to sparse with on the level of theology history and even science. All what happens is they laugh at you. You at that heightened moment of being a christian warrior who is gonna convince this non-believer into a believer you seem to fail and feel very frustrated.
At which point afterward, you shrug it off and go about still believing. You go to learn everything you possibly can, which takes a lot of information depending on your determination and how far you want to go, or God forbid you get derailed completely and turn away from God. I'm gonna say this again you don't have to learn all the history and every line of the bible to be happy and devoted, and im sure loved by God. If you wanna tangle with athiest, then you might wanna be prepared.
We actually do have archiological evidence/proof of chararters in the bible. James brother of Jesus, Pilate, Cassius, and if you believe in the shroud of Turin proof of Jesus. There are others as well just look up Digging Up the Bible with Frank Turek. Its really amazing stuff...
Is this an Oriental, Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant, or all of the above channel?
