Albert Mohler: The Disappearance of God

G.K. Chesterton once said that when people stop believing in God, they don’t believe in nothing, they believe in anything. The rejection of Christianity by our culture has resulted in a spiritual vacuum that is being filled by all manner of aberrant teachings. In this session, Dr. Albert Mohler will provide guidance to Christians who are confused by all the falsehoods swirling around them every day.

This guy is sharp as a tack. Cutting edge.

A very good talk. May God help us to redeem the time. "Forgive me O Lord where I have fallen short, help me to get back onto the path of true obedience."

Praise be to God for Teachers as this who stand firm in the Word against the world!

For those who are writing against what this wonderful mans book discusses needs to observe society at large.

[@34Packardphaeton]

I know of no superior communicator of things worth contemplating than Al Mohler. How sad that good Christians never lack pitiful, puny detractors with little real thinking.

[@user-pc8ik2ux1d]

I have seen a culture in which God (or any ethical system) is not present for the majority of people. The result is an almost complete lack of emphathy for all life. The result of this lack of empathy is a SHOW of respect which covers and ignores the torment and destruction of all beings, including infants when the infant is "inconvenient" to the individual and society. As a Christian, I am appalled beyond belief.

But his goes with the notion of”too many humans.”. The fewer babies born, the better. Life is valued; human life is devalued.

Jesus asked "When the Son of Man returns will He find faith?".

COGNITIVE CONTAMINATION Wow, Lord open our eyes and lead us not into temptation

EXCELLENT JOB!

I think the analogy of the frog in hot water is very apt for what we are seeing. Let's face it, there is no reason for graphic violence and sex in American movies. Violence has always been known to be destructive, yet Hollywood identifies violence. Movies like "Silence of the Lambs" and "Pulp Fiction" have no redeemable value, yet they were critically acclaimed and lauded by the media establishment. One move glorified a serial killer of young girls, and the other showed sodomized rape, heroin use, racism, and casual murder.

This is definitely the third or forth question youd ask if the Lord revealed HimSelf to you. Why do most people in the world have no Idea they aren't even allowed to know. Even if you tell them to their faces. Been waiting to find this video!!

[@Jesse-cy7ws]

Really enjoy his lectures re the early and middle church

[@joehinojosa24]

Modern, polite society doesn't Like the concept of " God" because YHWH implies moral absolutes.

So true!

Has someone got a link for that soul searchers book ?? I can’t find it online

🚨🎖🚨 *Happiness Now, and Forever* [22:15] If anyone thinks that GOD cannot support him in this life and in the Hereafter, let him turn completely to (his Creator in) heaven, and sever (his dependence on anyone else). He will then see that this plan eliminates anything that bothers him. [22:16] We have thus revealed clear revelations herein, then GOD guides whomever He wills. [47:31] We will certainly put you to the test, in order to distinguish those among you who strive, and steadfastly persevere. We must expose your true qualities.

[@JRobbySh]

What underlies secularization is philosophic materialism. Mohler has himself recognized that the secular world view has discovered that it is challenged by a growing worship of the world that we see. The Earth itself as a living thing, and mankind as the cause of a disease that is killing it.

[@BestIsntEasy]

🚨🐍🚨 [5:19] O people of the scripture, our messenger has come to you, to explain things to you, after a period of time without messengers, lest you say, "We did not receive any preacher or warner." A preacher and warner has now come to you. GOD is Omnipotent.* [5:15] O people of the scripture, our messenger has come to you to proclaim for you many things you have concealed in the scripture, and to pardon many other transgressions you have committed. A beacon has come to you from GOD, and a profound scripture. [5:16] With it, GOD guides those who seek His approval. He guides them to the paths of peace, leads them out of darkness into the light by His leave, and guides them in a straight path. [5:17] Pagans indeed are those who say that GOD is the Messiah, the son of Mary. Say, "Who could oppose GOD if He willed to annihilate the Messiah, son of Mary, and his mother, and everyone on earth?" To GOD belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, and everything between them. He creates whatever He wills. GOD is Omnipotent.

I guess now Al Mohler is showing his true colors regarding Critical Race Theory. Was he just taking advantage of RC Sproul endorsement and y the recognition of Ligonier Ministries?

[@BestIsntEasy]

🔥⏳🔥 [3:59] The example of Jesus, as far as GOD is concerned, is the same as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, "Be," and he was. *3:59 The "equality" of the creation of Jesus and Adam is confirmed mathematically; Jesus and Adam are mentioned in the Quran the same number of times; 25 times each. [3:60] This is the truth from your Lord; do not harbor any doubts.

One thing will prove to me that scripture is true...if Dr Mohler will drink a full glass of anti-freeze and is not harmed by it. Mark 16:18.

[@elimarc3891]

He is definitely not trying to prove anything to non believers. And if he did that for that bad reason he would die. But You would find out why He would die by reading the other verses if you were to do it for good reasons.

[@Psalm146-2]

Just to explain why Hussein is confused, when Jesus spoke He spoke in parables - Matthew 13:13 “That is why I use these parables, For they look, but they don’t really see. They hear, but they don’t really listen or understand. This fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah that says, ‘When you hear what I say, you will not understand. When you see what I do, you will not comprehend. For the hearts of these people are hardened, and their ears cannot hear, and they have closed their eyes-so their eyes cannot see, and their ears cannot hear, and their hearts cannot understand, and they cannot turn to me and let me heal them.’” So when a non-believer quotes scripture to try to prove a point you can be certain that they don’t know what they are talking about. The verse Hussein quoted “They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them. They will be able to place their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.” is to be interpreted spiritually (which Hussein is incapable of). Quickly, Hussein is a snake that is delivering venom - I, as a believer, can handle his venom safely. It has no affect on me because I know the truth (thanks be to God). This verse is not referring to a physical snake - it’s a spiritual snake and Hussein IS the snake.
