We are spirits not physical - we are spirits with or without physical body at any given time - we never die. Also there is no heaven or hell - just good/bad karma that goes up and down through all our lives. We have been given free will SO LONG as we do NOT interfere with the will of others. Many people forget the condition. Therefore we must not kill - that will add to our negative karma. That is - you can NOT be "saved" by anyone. You are already spiritually connected, always. Man made religion is a control mechanism. 2

Look, i totally understand that your trying to figure out a purposeful outcome with this new thing you gotten but, you cant just point to Christianity all the time. Use islam or hindu next time. Because obviously your just slandering and people would only watch it for their enjoyment. Hence not fulfilling this thing you thought you had going on(or idea that you cooked). Im sorry i had to be the one to tell you that, but eventually youd understand, right? Idk maybe your also slandering yourself because you think your a mistake and trying to exault it somehow. But of course, free will is a gift and we choose to either tear us away or towards God.

And alot of popular religions point to Christianity such as islam(thats if you really think outside the box). If the narrative of somebody else doesnt adhere to what God calls his creation to do, then they arent a christan now, are they. The scriputre is the good news. Thank you for calling out the luke warms and prideful people of religion. :) God loves you and died for you.

Genesis 1:26 - Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” That 'us' clearly indicates Trinity in the Old Testament or when Abraham was visited by three men. Two went to Sodom and Gomorra (those two were actually angels) and it said that the Lord was behind talking to Abraham, meaning he took on a form of a human, which could be Jesus talking to Abraham. There is 2 of them. The father in the sky and God in human form on the ground before the new testament. I hope you will turn from your wicked ways and come back to Christ and repent of your sins

@@ulubak I'm sorry, but your poorly educated take is not going to be the thing to make me suddenly start believing things for bad reasons. The "we" in Genesis is there because the ancient Jews were polytheists; they believed in many gods, not just Yahweh. You're reading into the text whatever you feel fits best with your beliefs, rather than genuinely investigating the facts to see what's true. You're free to do that if you'd like, but I'm too intellectually honest for that.

@@ACallToReason I didn't expect a response from you. I recommend you to watch Cliffe Knetchle, Sam Shamoun, Impact Ministries and many more to educate you. You have hardened your heart against God like Pharaoh did in Exodus. Also, God and science are working together. For example, the Pangea theory is supported in the Bible and the flood has caused the continents to form. I hope you will not continue down the path of lawlessness. I hope you will actually be saved like I was. I was also growing up in a church and later began to rebel like you do now. In march of this year, a bishop named Mar Mari Emanuel has woken up faith in my and since I started to believe, my life has become better, although I have experienced to be ridiculed by individuals like you, the holy spirit gives me strength and I can do everything through Jesus Christ who strengthens me (Philippians 4:13). I cannot force nor I want to, but without Jesus we will perish and will be punished for our sins. In the old testament, there was no mention of hell, but the death itself was a punishment. Now, death of our physical bodies can be a transition in either eternal life or eternal death after Jesus' first coming. And God can talk to us through Scripture, Jesus and even still with a voice like in the OT. One man wanted to kill himself because he was struggling and as he wanted to pull the trigger , a voice stopped him telling him: Don't do it, you have so much to live for!' and the mam froze. He said since them he started reading the Bible and became a new born Christian. That is why I have hope for you. Repent of your sins and rebellion against God and turn away from your wicked ways.

REBUTTAL OF PART 2. 1) Prayer and giving thanks: The speaker is not aware of the reason for the bible and its contents. He thinks the bible is mainly or solely about this human world rather than being part of a next world plan. Yes, prosperity and poverty comes to both bible believers and non believers according to who follows the plan to success. The bible is full of such advice as in Proverbs 6:4-11. The point is who will thank God regardless of their circumstances whether God made or manmade as in the book of Job, Matt 5:45 or Luk 17:17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? Luk 17:18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. See also Psalm 73:3-17 and Eccle 9 which says it is not about life in this testing ground of human existing; but the character developed to be worthy of going onto the next. There is obviously an intelligent God who created the universe. A human and spiritual world. Psalm 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Two crucial verses regarding prayer are “Pro 15:8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight. Pro 28:9 He that turns away his ear from hearing the LAW, even his prayer shall be abomination”. Most Christians are taught God’s LAW was nailed to the cross, only for the Jews etc and thus are not meeting the “upright” criteria. Life and prayer are not about material things. “Proverb 30:8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:” 2) FAITH: Heb 11 is written to Israelites who had knowledge of their history and is the culmination of the previous 10 chapters where Paul went through the historical evidence known by them. He also adds his and the other apostles eyewitness testimony. Thus he was not asking them to have blind, illogical faith. The same way we do not get in an aeroplane on blind faith; but on that of others who have flown before. We today can either accept their testimony or not. The same way a judge in a court matter can accept or reject a testimony. What would be the point of Paul making up a story, how would or did he benefit. He made no material benefit. Speaker says he values logic, yet his explanation about the vast variety of universe life and things is evolution. Did hard mountains, wooden fruit bearing trees, numerous planets evolve from a soft tissue frog or visa versa? Is that logical? Did walking humans evolve from minute flying insects or ants or visa versa? Here is a young man, who maybe has not seen 1% of the world, yet thinks he has the answers of the universe. How logical? 3) God does not need our prayers, he wants our belief / faith in Him (John 17:3). In the first 5 books of the bible he does not tell Moses to teach prayer; but obedience (Ex 24:7). In the New Testament the guiding teaching on prayer is Matt 6:9-12. The main points being repentance and forgiveness to satisfy Acts 2:38 and Luke 13:3. Thus learn and follow God from the Bible not mans’ denominations interpretation of it. See my KZbin channel for answers.

[continued from previous comment points 1 - 7] 8) In the beginning nothing but God who creates us. He finds this odd, yet is willing to believe an evolution story. From what did everything evolve? Was there not that “thing” and nothing else, the same accusation he finds odd about God. He simply is not applying his own criticism to his choice of belief; evolution from what. Where is the proof. Considering the world has been going for whatever period, should we not find partially evolved animals, humans etc of 10%, 25%, 75% etc? Considering each living species lives for a limited time i.e. under 100 years, would they not ALWAYS die before reaching full evolution state or the period for full evolution should be within their life years? 9) He cannot understand why God would come in a human form as Jesus to lift a punishment that He put in place for laws He made up. Try the concept of a king advocating his throne because he wants to marry a woman of a nation or family he or his family ruled the king’s linage cannot marry. Unlike Herod who wanted to marry his brother’s wife and killed John the Baptist for rebuking him. Or Henry the Viii who wanted to break the marriage laws. Honourable and just people would not break the law or be immoral. Another example is a judge who takes his son’s death penalty rather than kill his son for breaking the murder laws. Many loving parents would take a punishment on behalf of their children who broke their rules. The rules cannot be changed and the punishment has to be administered. As a result, the child may never again break the law (sin) having seen the love their parent had for them. That is the mystery spoken of in “1Tim 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh,”. Those with the right understanding of love, may understand. It would take too long to try and explain. As the Bible says “If any man have an ear, let him hear”. 10) He states there are scientific facts that collaborate the “theory” of evolution. That they told him of mountains of evidence. Yet does not give ANY such claimed “fact” nor “evidence”. Nor any answers to the rebuttals he has received in reply as “where are the fossil records, missing links, the flaws in the dating method”. If it was collaborated beyond counter arguments, it would nolonger be called a “theory”!! I recently saw a news report of a freshly killed seal being carbon dated as having died 1,300 years ago. Living mollusk shells were dated at up to 2,300 years old. Some very unusual evidence is that living snails' shells showed that they had died 27,000 years ago. 11) It is a known fact that Satanist enter churches pretending to be Christians to destroy them from the inside. That they also make videos as this one to try and destroy belief in the bible which says 1Pet 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 2Cor 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 2Co 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

REBUTTAL. Firstly, I too would leave “Christianity; but not for the reasons given by the evolutionist making the video. More because Christians do not understand the truth contained in the Bible. They are like those of 2 Pet 3:16 who are unlearned in the Old Testament and thus misunderstand Paul’s explanation about God’s law also 1 Tim 1:7. Laws that, for example, prohibit piercing of God’s human creation with nose rings as the video producer. Just like a computer programmer or perfectionist does not want viruses or other undesirables in their creation. 1) The Bible is NOT the source and foundation of Christianity. That was copied and translated from Jewish system of the Torah etc. The events in the Bible / Torah WERE NOT WRITTEN hundreds and thousands of years after the events. Maybe the story of Genesis creation; but not of since the book of Exodus or the prophets’ writings. Nor historical events as the empires of Babylon, Medes and Persia, Greece or Rome. Writing and record keeping existed in the book of Exodus. How do you think Pharaohs of Egypt conveyed instructions or the pyramid were built without written plans? Non biblical and archaeology academics confirm from surviving documentation that things were written down at the time. Writing and record keeping were around in those times as it says in “Ezra 4:15 That search may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers:”, “Daniel 6:15 … that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed”, “Esther 6:1 On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king”. To prove verses as “Daniel 1:1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it”. I found the following on the web: “The book of Daniel is one of the most hotly-contested books in the Bible. While it purports to describe events in the sixth century BC, and has traditionally been attributed to Daniel, scholarship since the 19th century has largely dismissed the historicity of this book, suggesting it was written during the second century BC to encourage the Jewish people enduring persecution under Antiochus IV Epiphanes (ca. 175-164 BC).1 However, recent linguistical studies have demonstrated that the Hebrew in Daniel predates the Hebrew of the Dead Sea Scrolls composed during the second century BC2, and that the Aramaic in the book, when compared official Imperial documents from the sixth century BC onwards, is the Imperial Aramaic that was used from ca. 600-330 BC, not the Aramaic of the second century.3” Lastly for point 1) was the story of evolution not created by Charles Darwin thousands of years after the claimed event? If before him, was it not by word of mouth and passed on for “unknown periods of time until someone as finally able to write it down” the same criticism he makes of the Bible? 2) You are “led to believe all these stories are inspired by God” because you do not “2Tim 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”. Instead you follow inherited traditions and interpretations of men / denominations and not what the verse actually says. “2Tim 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God”.. “All scripture” only refers to what God said in the Old Testament not i.e. Paul’s writings as most Christians are taught. When the N.T. was written, there was no N.T. only the Old Testament. All if not most human cultures are based on the laws of God as do not kill, steal, treat fellow humans fairly and rightly etc. How did the world get those directives if not from its creator? 3) The N.T. appears to be an entirely different religion for the reasons mentioned above (i.e. 2 Pet 3:16) and more. It is read with Christian eyes not Jewish. The early Christian church imposed anti Jewish things from its conception. Continuing a practice that was in the Old and New Testaments. “Gen 43:32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians”. “Act 16:20 And brought them to the ) Act 16:21 And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans”. For elaboration see studies www.forwardtoyahweh.com/sermons/356-we-all-ought-to-be-%e2%80%9cis-rael-i%e2%80%9d kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJK1qqCknK-Wh68 Plus many other studies on those sites. 4) “Trinity” is a Catholic church created term to try and explain for human understanding the apparent 3 in one concept of God. However, God is not limited to Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He can take whatever form He wishes for His purpose and human attention. Whether a “Exo 13:21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:”, “Exo 3:2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush:”, “Gen 18:1 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: … Gen 18:2 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him:”. The “trinity” is taken from “Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”. Not all Christians believe in a “trinity” concept and leaving the faith for this reason should not be a reason. All Christians believe in ONE GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob from the Old Testament. 5) The concept of “hell” is mentioned in the Old Testament. It may not have been given the ascribed New Testament name. Simply it is separation from God after the second death of Rev 2:11, 20:6, 14; 21:8. 6) “God use to appear all the time whether physical form or audible voice it was common. Not in the N.T. nothing. Not as a physical form or audible voice… sure he sends Jesus and some angels but stops appearing himself”. The latter part of that statement is a lie. “Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word AS GOD. Joh 1:14 And the WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth”. See also Acts 10. As for the first part of the statement, not quite, it was not common. It only appears common to a reader because the bible is a religious book and thus only mentions things relevant and to Israel. If I did a million things; but a football promoter only mentions the 10 times I played football it can be misunderstood. God appeared as relevant. Then sent prophets to recite his la to the masses. After the message, gospel etc has been told and written down, there was no more a need for Him to come in person again and again and again. Heb 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Heb 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;. Gal 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. Gal 3:25 But after that faith is come,… Heb 8:1 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum:.. Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Heb 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; Joh 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. “Mal 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not;” does not mean someone has to repeat something over and over otherwise it is seen as changing. I may tell a child to tidy their room several times. If I stop telling them, does not mean I have changed. It would be foolish to think so. Hence that is a foolish statement. 7) Prophecies. It is a lie or ignorance to say the bible is full of things that can be proved flawed by sound scientific methods and screams fraud. It is actually science that proves the bible and is catching up to what it says i.e. “Isa 40:22 .. that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain,” a new discovery about the universe. Non religious history and archaeology also confirms it’s prophecies i.e. about Jesus in the book of Isaiah and “Eze 26:14 And I will make thee like the top of a rock: thou shalt be a place to spread nets upon; thou shalt be built no more: for I the LORD have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD”. In Eze 26:2,5 God announces a judgment against Tyre that it will end up being “a place to spread nets”. History confirms in approx. 573 B.C. an attack on king Nebuchadnezzar began and the city on the mainland was destroyed after a 13 year siege. The city was rebuilt on an island but destroyed in 332 B.C. by Alexander the Great. He laid stones and timber in the water (Eze 26:12) in order to build a causeway to conquer the island city. That causeway trapped the sand carried by the tides so that since fishermen spread their nets on the beach where this great city once stood. A collection of records by over 40 authors over 1500 years is more a testimony of its authenticity than a fraud. Simply, the bible prophecies are proved by non bible history if one is aware of such history. Many people do not know what they do not know yet speak as though they do.

You can go to heaven if you believe Jesus died on the cross, rose from the dead on the third day and believing that itself covers all our sins past and present as long as we believe that. Also believing that Jesus is the son of God who was born of the Virgin Mary. Nobody can be perfectly sinless. Ever since Jesus died on the cross people are saved by belief in this alone not by being sinless nobody can be sinless. Being a good person alone can’t get you to Heaven because nobody can be good without Jesus. Jesus is the truth. If you don’t understand this ask Jesus in prayer if he’s real, or research it further or try believing and witness the change you feel in your life. Believing in Jesus is best for people’s lives it can give them happiness and lots of good things in people’s lives and the best part is that people can escape h-ll through Jesus.

A verse that emphasizes salvation through belief in Jesus rather than through human perfection. It’s easy to get to heaven ever since Jesus died on the cross because now humans can be saved by belief. **Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV):** "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast." - **John 3:16 (NIV):** "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." 2. **Signs of the last days:** - **2 Timothy 3:1-5 (NIV):** "But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God-having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people." 3. **God creating the earth:** - **Genesis 1:1 (NIV):** "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." Here are a few more Bible verses that describe the signs of the last days: 1. **Matthew 24:6-8 (NIV):** "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains." 2. **2 Peter 3:3-4 (NIV):** "Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, 'Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.'" 3. **1 Timothy 4:1-2 (NIV):** "The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron." 4. **Matthew 24:10-12 (NIV):** "At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold." 5. **Luke 21:25-26 (NIV):** "There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken." Here are Bible verses about the greatness of heaven, the millennium, and the new earth: ### Greatness of Heaven: 1. **Revelation 21:4 (NIV):** "‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” 2. **John 14:2-3 (NIV):** "My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am." 3. **1 Corinthians 2:9 (NIV):** "However, as it is written: 'What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived'- the things God has prepared for those who love him." ### Greatness of the Millennium: 2. **Isaiah 11:6-9 (NIV):** "The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the cobra’s den, and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea." Greatness of the New Earth: 1. **Revelation 21:1-3 (NIV):** "Then I saw 'a new heaven and a new earth,' for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, 'Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.'" 2. **Isaiah 65:17 (NIV):** "See, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind." 3. **Revelation 22:1-2 (NIV):** "Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations."

@@ACallToReason @ACallToReason You cannot both love sin and love God. The same eay you cannot love stealing, and love your grandmother, who hates it when you steal. If you truly loved God, you would hate the fact that you sin. You would know it's wrong, and you would work on yourself and ask God for help in growing as a person. You can't claim to love someone, and then continuously commit acts that break their hearts. Besides, the "later" is often too late. You know for a fact these excuses would not work. You don't like God's conditions, so you decided he doesn't exist. I'm not trying to insult you, but be honest here. As I said, if you know fire burns you, you won't poke your hand in a fire. But if you really, REALLY want to do it, you'll tell yourself fire doesn't burn you. And if it does, you'll just douse it in water or something. The same way, someone who understands the ramifications, isn't going to put his hand in the fire, because he'll just pull it out in a second. Both because he understands that nothing good comes from burning your hand, and because he doesn't want to upset those that warned him. It's far easier to say that X isn't bad, than to say that X is bad, but I'll stop doing X later. Also, I'd be interested in seeing a follow-up video, replying to some of the responses found in the comments.

@@Awkci_gaming won't even bother refuting your examples, because it's irrelevant. I'll just respond that it is impossible to CHOOSE not to believe something. If I truly believed that God exists, it is not possible for me to simply choose to no longer do so. One might choose to act in ways that are not wise in the face of certain accepted beliefs, but what one truly cannot do is decide that they no longer accept those beliefs simply because they'd prefer them to be false. However, someone who believes in a loving, forgiving God, when tempted with certain things that this God would not approve of, very well might choose to give into such temptations because they have the underlying belief that all is not lost if they do. I'm not talking about "oh, screw it, I'm just going to have fun now and ask forgiveness later!" It's more like the high school senior who ditches classes to be with his friends because he has the underlying belief that he will still be able to graduate and go on to the life path he has chosen. He knows he shouldn't, and he'd say as much if you asked him; but in the moment, when he friends ask him to ditch with them, he can't help himself. However, if he wasn't so sure that he'd graduate; if he seriously doubted that he might have a successful life if he messed up his final year of high school, then the weight of that belief would change his decision subconsciously. If I genuinely believed that God existed and that he would punish me eternally for my sins, it would be IMPOSSIBLE for me to convince myself otherwise simply because of the insurmountable weight of that threat. I can only live the way that I do because I truly, fully, down to my very core, do not believe that God exists.

Is that really the message you got from my video? That's not even close to why I left. At best, you could say that my upbringing was colored with some aspects of the prosperity gospel, and that finally seeing through those obviously flawed ideas was one part of breaking the spell. If you want the whole story summed up in one ridiculously oversimplified sentence, it would be something more like "I noticed that I didn't have good reasons to believe, so I went looking for better ones and ultimately found that there are none." I'm always open to the idea that I might find good reasons someday, but I've dug in pretty deep and found precisely nothing that even approaches that line. Apologetics and theological philosophy are both completely vacuous, arguing every single case from conclusion to premise, rather than the other way around. You can't get from any sound line of reasoning to a theistic conclusion without inserting God axiomatically somewhere along the way, and that should only ever work for people who are already committed to believing.

@@ACallToReason The Scripture teaches the exact opposite of prosperity bro! Jesus promises us that we will be hated and attacked for telling the truth, that we have to pick up our Cross, and that the whole world is under a curse of sin. The Bible also teaches that we are "more than conquerors" through Jesus. If we are in Christ, we have something MUCH more valuable! One of the reasons I bring this up is that you made an argument against Christianity by claiming that "other religion's prayers get answered", but that has nothing to do with the truth of Christianity, and the "non-prosperity" defense I gave is to target what you were saying there. Next, there's REALLY good reasons to believe Christianity is true!

@@lizzard13666 the reason I made the statement about other religions getting their prayers answered is that this is not what you'd expect if the Christian God (and ONLY the Christian God) exists. Sure, the Bible says that followers will suffer and struggle, but it also says that ANYTHING that two agree on and ask for, they shall receive (Matthew 18:19). If you have reasons that I've never heard before, I would be truly amazed. I've listened to hundreds/thousands of personal testimonies, amateur apologists, professional apologists, professional theologians and religious philosophers, and historians. Among them, I have not found ONE single convincing reason to believe. There are reasons, sure, but there are counters to every one of them that are far stronger, in my opinion.

@@ACallToReason Yes, I know why you mentioned other religions getting their prayers answered, and I was just trying to respectfully point out that this is based on an unbiblical view of prayer. "Prosperity" teachings have affected a LOT of people's mindsets! Under the Christian worldview, we WOULD expect non-Christians prayers to be answered. Yahweh is Omnipresent. He "causes it to rain on the just AND the unjust" according to the consistent teaching of Scripture. Here's a passage that directly supports my point: Acts 17:26-28 (ESV) 26 And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for “‘In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, “‘For we are indeed his offspring.’ Hopefully that helps explain why I'm linking that all to prosperity gospel. Scripture CLEARLY states that God helps ALL people. It's certainly not only Christians who can benefit from prayer, and prayer is NOT only about responding with blessings.

A lot of your objections are pretty popular ones. Although the problem of evil may be the strongest. Liberal higher criticism of the Bible tends to agree with your assessment. Many current New Atheists have similar views to yours. It sounds like you were brought up in a fundamentalist tradition. Even if they arent pioneers in science,they generally are not wellread in philosophy, logic, biblical archaeology . This may explain the high rates of christian youth leaving Christ in academic settings,exposed to new ideas, new world view supported by materialistic science and evolution. But your rejection seems to be based on an anachronism. 2000 yrs ago I dont think most believers based their faith on the KJV. Probably didnt carry bibles since they were too expensive. Although they did have Greek philosophers as materialistic atomists, atheism didnt make much of an impact on early Jewish Christianity. The gospel was transmitted by word of mouth,or kerygma. It seemed to have a strong psychological impact on a few. Following the logic of deterministic science, since all that is real are just atoms, the apparent alignment of atoms ,constituting their quantum based consciousness and illusory free will, bound by the laws of physics, restricted their choices to becoming christians. You should look up physicist Sabine Hossenfelders videos on non existence of free will. This is a subset of science, hard determinism. Another possible non scientific option is, these early converts were filled with the convicting Holy Spirit,, moving their hearts to accept Jesus.

Reading the bible itself will begin to lead you to deconversion. But the real problem is people can read now. And as I state on my own episodes to my subs---people research on their own instead of just taking a pastor's word for it now. I didn't want to deconvert. Believe me, I fought it. But the fact is if you start to research you will see that the claims don't add up. And no I didn't take the late Christopher Hitchens word for it. I researched apologists' claims. I looked at Lee Strobel's interviewees and his total lack of objectivity, not to mention he never bothered to actually fact check their claims. And what you find is nothing but speculation and poor speculation at that. Or you find an apologist taking one fact (IE the city of Ur existed in Abraham's time) so therefore Abraham existed. Total fallacies and apologists do it all the time. I always say in my episodes that I want to find evidence to reconvert. But the fact is the more I research, the more the deconstruction continues.
