@afterlife697 Fun fact people "believe" in aliens, bigfoot, leprechauns, the Loch Ness monster, and thousands of different subjective "God's". Clearly people's "beliefs" are not indicative of the veracity of said "beliefs" 😁

[@YWUBHYD]

I don’t simply believe in God, Christ, or the Holy Spirit; I know they are true. Belief is the subjective acceptance of something as true without necessarily requiring external evidence or rational justification, often shaped by personal experiences, emotions, and biases. Knowledge, on the other hand, is a justified true belief: not only something believed to be true, but also supported by evidence, reasoning, and verifiable facts, carrying a higher level of objective certainty. In contrast, belief can exist without proof and is influenced by personal biases or emotions. Knowledge requires both truth and justification, while belief does not. While most Christians believe in God, I know Him through the evidence of His Almighty and everlasting existence. Knowledge of God is grounded in a deeper, personal understanding and experience of His reality, which aligns with the objective evidence of His existence, such as the intricacy of the universe, the historical evidence of Christ, and the transformative power of faith. Therefore, while belief in God may rely on personal conviction, knowledge of God is grounded in evidence: spiritual, philosophical, and historical, supporting the truth of His nature and existence, making it more certain and objective. While many Christians believe in God, in light of the aforementioned, I confidently know God through evidence rather than simply believing He exists.

[@trumpbellend6717]

@@YWUBHYD "Truth" is demonstrated dear not asserted, its that which best conforms with the FACTS and EVIDENCE and has nothing whatsoever to do with anyone's "faith" in a God. Knowledge of FACTS, also called "propositional knowledge", is defined as true belief that is distinct from opinion or guesswork by virtue of justification. A "FACT" is a point of data that is objectively verifiable ( demonstrable ) Absent "Facts" one has only the opinion or guesswork and no justification to claim such knowledge. Science has all the FACTS yet claims nothing as "absolute" truth. Christianity conversely claims absolute truth in everything yet has no FACTS 😜 To assert as FACT that for which there is insufficient evidence is intellectually dishonesty and essentially no different than a *"LIE"*

Living a Godly life is so rewarding, following the Word of God is so fulfilling, not with earthly riches but with the riches that God has for you, a peace that can only come from God. The Holy Spirit is so powerful you can feel it, but you must always submit to the will of God. You must never stray from that.

Because 12 men testified they had seen Jesus raised from the dead, then they proclaimed that truth for 40 years, never once denying it. Every one was beaten, tortured, stoned and put in prison. They would not have endured that if it weren't true. Watergate embroiled 12 of the most powerful men in the world-and they couldn't keep a lie for three weeks.

[@Fahrenheit4051]

Unless they lie to themselves. Interesting paradox - Actually witnessing a miracle would greatly increase the probability of believing something, but hearing about miraculous claims from centuries ago actually reduced the probability. For example, nobody questions the story of Socrates to the same degree, because it's a lot more believable. Jesus himself said that those who believe without seeing are even more blessed. Also compare and contrast the two Lazaruses, which appear to be making the opposite point. Every belief requires a degree of faith, and every society requires faith in one another in order to function properly. The problem is when faith gets confused with delusion, which is the realm of the Pharisees.

The academic answer is the church gathered thousands of copies of the text in the 4th century to compare what the scribes of various regions had written. What they found was some portions of the text in a region were a bit different than other regions. But not all regions changed the same text. So by comparing thousands of versions they were able to weed out things that had been changed in one region but not others to get back to the original text. The accuracy of the text has been tested by comparing with ancient versions of the scripts that have been found to compare the wording. And the text is the same. The Dead Sea scrolls are one of the largest finds that had entire chapters which were compared and the text was the same.

People who don't, the unsaved, cannot discern spiritual things, it is folly to them (1 Cor. 2:14).

All the people that don't have answers and are seeking answers, they just have to read the bible and then they will know the truth and have the answers to all their questions...

[@artvallejos1460]

Good points. but many people don't want to know the Truth. Matthew 7:13-14

[@rosannatrinidad4141]

Totally agree with you. Yeshua touched my forehead on June 18th 2018. I felt his finger on my forehead, after that I woke up. Couldn't believe what was happening on this earth. Yes he is comung to us. Amen Alleluia!

[@joycephillips831]

Amen! Its real. Its truth. It's proven and it cant be unproven. Thank you God.

[@btsweeney3640]

Truth is exclusionary. There cannot be different versions of the truth.

[@YWUBHYD]

I replied to someone’s comment with this, but I think it’s worth sharing with everyone as an original comment: I don’t simply believe in God, Christ, or the Holy Spirit; I know they are true. Belief is the subjective acceptance of something as true without necessarily requiring external evidence or rational justification, often shaped by personal experiences, emotions, and biases. Knowledge, on the other hand, is a justified true belief: not only something believed to be true, but also supported by evidence, reasoning, and verifiable facts, carrying a higher level of objective certainty. In contrast, belief can exist without proof and is influenced by personal biases or emotions. Knowledge requires both truth and justification, while belief does not. While most Christians believe in God, I know Him through the evidence of His Almighty and everlasting existence. Knowledge of God is grounded in a deeper, personal understanding and experience of His reality, which aligns with the objective evidence of His existence, such as the intricacy of the universe, the historical evidence of Christ, and the transformative power of faith. Therefore, while belief in God may rely on personal conviction, knowledge of God is grounded in evidence: spiritual, philosophical, and historical, supporting the truth of His nature and existence, making it more certain and objective. While many Christians believe in God, in light of the aforementioned, I confidently know God through evidence rather than simply believing He exists.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is true because it works better than any other set of principles and concepts to create greater quality-greater love, kindness, goodness, and abundance.

[@tombirmingham7354]

Charlie Kirk says it so well.

when you have good relationship with Jesus Christ you will see your prayer being answer.

[@phillipkelly6978]

Keep searching brother, you will find that Jesus isn't coming back to do battle. He is coming back to melt the earth with fervent heat and resurrect all his true followers to life everlasting!

Fulfilled Prophecy is even stronger evidence since no other religious book has any! Only the Bible has hundreds of Fulfilled Prophecy. And not just some fuzzy Prophecy like Nostradamus, but detailed and specific Prophecies. No other book comes close!

[@marshall6604]

Excellent!

[@jimtrue1465]

Most of the fulfilled prophecies in the Bible were written AFTER they were fulfilled. It is easy to predict the future when it has already happened.

[@Darryl-ci5pv]

@jimtrue1465 you shouldn't be so gullible. I'm sure you don't read the Bible.

[@454ss67]

There are many important points made by Mr. Kirk, one being the testimony of women! Back then, if someone was trying to persuade you of something, they would never have used testimony that could not have even been allowed in court. But they did. Why? Because they truly believed it. And no one ever recanted! I do need to point out that Luke wasn't an eye witness. He never claimed to be. In his own words he wrote; "Since many have undertaken to compile an account of the things accomplished among us, just as they were handed down to us by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word, it seemed fitting to me as well, having investigated everything carefully from the beginning, to write it out for you in an orderly sequence, most excellent Theophilus; so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught." Luke was a physician, and therefore very methodical and careful in his approach to writing his gospel.

[@trevorinnis5702]

We must be very careful on every decision and moves we make,when we are in the direct battle against darkness. At 6:39 ,Charlie display two fingers as an example. I would highly recommend we use other fingers to represent two. I don't believe Charlie did it deliberate ,but none the less, we need to be aware. Christ is King!

[@mollya.7206]

The Bible study "Luke in the Land" by Kristi McLelland connected mind to heart. Proof of Jesus' ministry, death and resurrection. I will do again.

[@angelaegan7511]

Whether one believes or not, he does make a good argument.

Truth does not have to be defended… The Holy Spirit will guide you to all truth….

Thereal truth, hurt. Some rather live ina lie, than to confess / tell the truth! Yet, they have to lie, to cover the first lie with!!! (( sounds like, when I was in kindergarten???!! ))

[@janvanderkruyk]

When you accept Christ you no longer believe but you'll know He is the Way the Truth and the Life even if you can't explain or prove it. Nothing can make you change your mind because He is in your hart and soul.

When Hollywood mocks God the next day Hollywood have the worst punishment

[@Locutus.Borg.]

The apostle Paul (Saul) himself was an agent of persecution and executed Christians on behalf of the Pharisees and the Sanhedrin until he saw Jesus resurrected in person and was blinded by the experience. If this were not true, then *WHY* would he join a failed cult whose leader had been publicly executed and who Saul (Paul) had every reason to believe was "dead and buried"? What would be Paul's motive for doing this? For abandoning his faith, his tradition, his family and his career and his standing with the Pharisees to volunteer for a death sentence? There is no rational basis upon which an argument can be made for this given Paul's education, cultural and political standing and his initial desire to persecute and execute all followers of a movement Saul saw as a cult and a blasphemy against his faith. The only rational answer is that he witnessed something that compelled him to believe and to pursue that truth unto his death.

[@olugbengajaiyesimi113]

How about Christianity foretelling the future. Look at present finances commerce enabled with digits, numbers book of Revelation chapter 13. How about present world polity configuration, world governance, globalisation etc, all foretold 2000years ago...

[@tracyhoneycomb1377]

Psalms 22 was written approximately 1,000 years before Christ. No mortal man or men could create, stage and pull off the events so accurately to this prophetic writing. This is also the exact scripture that Christ was quoting as he hung on the cross, I believe he did this to bring Psalms 22 to the minds of those present that day, as both men and women were taught the book of Psalms. He was still trying to teach and save His people as he suffered and died. Praise God, He arose!

[@ShowmethaMane]

what should i say when asked if jesus is son of god or jesus is god himself`?

[@artvallejos1460]

Say 1 Timothy 3:16 and Colossians 16-19.

[@muldersxfiles]

Another great example is the Roman Empire itself. Rome changed there entire religious view after the crucification and resurrection of Jesus adopting Christianity into there society! Eventually forming the Roman Catholic Church which became the steeple of there government. This indicates that the Roman’s and Rome experienced events that completely changed their view and belief in Christ. These historical events cannot be denied!!

[@michaelkendall662]

Rome did not rely on a "Christian" religion throughout the empire officially until Constantine in 311 AD and even then if you look at the RCC doctrine it is NOT a KJV Doctrine......Paul never made an official missionary trip to Rome there was a Church of Rome consisting of Christians of the same belief as the Apostles from remnants of other churches he had planted moving to or through there including Priscilla

[@silentcyn2023]
