I must say after watching many of these videos there is a stark difference between the debating students in these early ones vs the ones being made today/last 10 years. These early ones seem to have more interesting points and articulate them more clearly, though Cliffe still handles them with ease. The modern students seem more emotional and stubborn in their views/arguments.

People today are told their feelings matter most and that one’s own happiness is all that matters in this life. They are blinded by their pursuit of this perpetual happiness to the extent that when someone tramples on their made up idea of happiness they melt emotionally. Tell someone they aren’t born gay or transgender and that God made them in his image as man and woman and man and woman only and they say you aren’t confirming what they FEEL. Not what is known but what is felt. Todays society is one that is based entirely upon feelings

I would argue that it's because these guys think they are smarter than they are. The guy talking about moral relativism couldn't grasp how he was not consistent when he believed people were right and wrong based upon his own moral compass. I think modern-day students can't really think of a reason to argue because anyone with half a brain has to admit that morality is not subjective, and therefore must come from some external arbiter. I think the biggest problem is we've gone from people thinking they are intelligent even if they aren't, to just not caring whether they are logical or not but wanting what they want, and refusing to look past their own desire

He does bring up issues that are written in the Bible on a regular basis in his talks like in this video. I think it is a talent to be able to speak with worldly people in a reasonable way while staying Biblical in your conversation. Some people have nothing but Bible verses in their talk but people do not talk to them very long because they get annoyed by that.

In all probability it seems reasonable to assume that someone like Theo Skeptical and others like him who are also misled, are probably Satanists but pretending it not to be one. These are a most interesting bunch. Some actually do believe in God. However their agenda is to do all they can to thwart the purposes of God. It’s certainly a madness of types. But their rebellion against God gives them power. And because they so enjoy this power, they are so delusional that they think that Satan will ultimately be victorious and prevail against God. Like I say. It’s a madness.

Young Cliffe was a FREAKING SAVAGE 🤣. AMEN brothers and sisters in Christ our Lord and God bless brother Cliffe Knechtle's Apologetics ministry and you ALL 🙏❤️👊. It's obviously not the burden of proof for believers but God Himself to meet the burden of proof which He has for us Christian theists despite what Atheists claim are just unsupported claims. This has nothing 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 Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. 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" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro 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.

Many know enough Bible to specifically quote some passages which leads me to think they were not prepared by family and or their churches to stand up to the professors and fellow students questions and they walked away……it’s sad that I’m looking at so many possible Tribulation Saints, that is if God has not hardened their heart to ever come back to Him!

I guess I was 55 at the time. Now I’m 75. I started my thinking journey at age 30 puzzling over why we do what we do. Got born again at age 40. But for a long time I couldn’t figure out why I loved a little 5 year girl who walked past my place every morning, going to school with her grandfather. I knew I loved her but why. Each day this little tot walked past with her grandfather who walked about 10 paces behind her. She was a little Holly Hobby type. She had on her little back pack and was leaning forward striding forth. I couldn’t really see her that well. She would be on the other side of the street going in the opposite direction. And as this Chinese infant with her old grandfather in tow walked past my place every morning, I wondered why I loved her. Why why why. What a puzzle. Answers in the beginning never came to me easily. But some years later I realised it was her obedience that made me love her. She was determined to be obedient. I will never forget that little girl who must be a grown women today of 25. Maybe married with her own family. But I am still blessing her. We don’t always realise how much we are loved and being blessed. But we know that God loves the obedient. But if God loves me as much as I loved that little Holly Hobby, that will do me. He knows I’m doing my best. And as my boyhood friend Mack, my greatly beloved dog, was fiercely loyal to me, I am fiercely loyal to God.

It's surprising how all of these questions prompted by the students are questions that every person who is in pursuit of God runs into. There's so much pride, ignorance, and naivete in the questions and I've been in the same position. Some questions are hypotheticals and will never get answered to a satisfying degree. But, if someone in truly in pursuit of God, not antagonistically or spitefully, but truly desiring to know who God is, He will reveal himself to them. It was that way with me. Once you get a taste you cant stop.

As a boy I wasn’t much good at anything. Pretty useless actually. I was one of those kids. But very good with my slug gun. I was dead last in class every single year of my life, which was a bit hard to take. It’s not easy being a dummy. Therefore I decided to become very successful at something. So I decided to become a troublemaker. In this I greatly excelled. But because I had a very pious mother whom I loved as much as my boyhood dog Mack, I now realise that I would have become a priest in order to please her. This would have happened if I had been good at my studies instead of always being in trouble. But if I had of become a catholic priest I would not know what I know today. At age 40, I’m now 75, I made the hardest decision in my life. I became a born again Christian. I never expected any lightening bolts or thunder claps. But to my surprise stuff happened, so much so that I came under great conviction. I knew God was on board. And in a semi tyrannical way I began to witness. How people reacted to me was interesting to say the least. I was something else, I say cringingly. But now I’m an old man, I realise more than ever that my mother was initially responsible for my repentance. I loved her so much I wanted to please her, although in the final analysis I did it to please God. But she won me over with love. When I was 15 still religiously shooting my slug gun my father very artfully asked me if I wasn’t a bit too old to shoot it. I never fired that gun again. He timed it just right. And God timed it just right too. Because without His perfect timing I wouldn’t have repented. But as I think of my mother I wonder why I never told her or thanked her for leading me to The Lord. But she will be in heaven. We can catch up then. And in telling this story I am teaching myself a lesson. And that is love. Love my children and grandchildren and my great grandchildren as my mother loved me. Love everyone. This is how Jesus did it. But Jesus and my mother are streets ahead of me. I’m coming up the rear again. Last in class. But I’m working on it.

Despite other Africans being black I don't believe I am better then them because of my race but rather I want to rule over my people (the Boers) a black African should have the right to rule over their own people. As long as we are on Earth, there will be different Cultures, different people, but all will stand in front of God one day and be judged. I am a white South African Christian, this doesn't mean I will care less if a person is black, I love them just as much as I love myself. In showing my love, I care that they get to read the Gospels and tell others about the Gospels. I have more examples in Boers history of where this happened.

A burning bush, the young man says. We need reason, and apologetics, but we need to pray for the demonstration of the power of God, like Paul spoke of. I was raised in cessationist church, but I have had the demonstration of God's power both internally and externally. Unless we pray that God moves by wonders on others, and believe for it, some will never believe. There are alot of Muslims seeing Jesus in the Middle East. Other people are having dreams. We need to pray for America, and this generation, that the same kind of thing will happen. Lastly, as Christians we know there is inate power in reading scripture, and we should preach the word. But unbelievers need something to gain their attention, and many times that us something supernatural. by the Holy Spirit touching them, or a dream, or healing is a big one. We need to ask and believe for these things.

Yes you are right. But also because the atheist is not being affected by the greatness of God which produces a humbling to those who acknowledge it, the atheist has therefore become quite inflated. And this inflation is coupled with too much admiration of self and mankind’s achievements. And this is empowering them. Hence they are in opposition to Cliffe’s message because to accept it would require the simultaneous jettisoning of the inflated self worth which they have acquired from not believing in God. Hence they fight against it. Yes they are in a difficult place. And whilst they are fighting to keep God at bay with their atheistic postulations, so they can maintain this inflated state of mind, their self deceit is such that they are actually unaware of this.

Some actually do believe in God. However their agenda is to do all they can to thwart the purposes of God. It’s certainly a madness of types. But their rebellion against God gives them power. And because they so enjoy this power, they are so delusional that they think that Satan will be victorious and prevail against God. Like I say. It’s a madness.

To give my own thoughts on the argument of 8:00, I believe that God does not make morality arbitrarily. One of the prime reasons as to why God deserves our trust on the matter of morality over any other humans is not just because of the fact that we have placed God above us. Angels live above us, yet we can see by fallen angels (Satan) that angels are not our go-to for moral absolutes. God is our go-to for moral absolutes. Why is that? One of the prime reasons is God's infinite knowledge. God does not change in character. The fact of a human being is that many of the choices and decisions we make can stem from the limit of knowledge, understanding, and open-mindedness that we have at the time of our choice, which is why we as human beings are able to change based on a growing in understanding, and realizing our previous lack of understanding. The difference with God is many things, but I'll try to name this one reason. God has infinite knowledge. God does not make a decision, then change his mind based on a lack of understanding, and look at Himself in retrospect, saying, "Wow, I was a bad person back then!" No, God has infinite knowledge and infinite understanding, so we can trust Him to know what's best for the human beings that He Himself had created, knowing how we would act, knowing everything that goes on in our brains. If anyone would like to ask me something, or teach me something, I'd be glad to chat, leave a comment and we can talk either here, or on any app of your choosing. God bless you, my friends!

There is no way someone could go through all of that then rise from the dead after three days. Especially with no agent other than the Holy Spirit to bring them back. Not to mention Jesus literally called his death and resurrection. What more could you ask for at that point?

When Cliffe said 'I would not worship God if God decreed that murder was good', I'm fine with that, I think Cliffe is a nice man on the whole, and I like him and his sons. I much prefer either of them to Aron Ra, even though Aron is a fellow atheist but when the kid asked him that question, I think he and that lady missed what could have been a much better point to make to Cliffe regarding this, which I will explain. You might notice that whilst the kid used the term 'kill', Cliffe used the word 'murder'? Seems pedantic, I know but I'm not just being nit-picky here for the sake of it, no, in fact, that different use in wording between them was very significant because for many Christians those two words 'murder' and 'killing' make a difference and the latter can, under certain circumstances provide a convenient 'get-out jail clause' for the other. For example, when God supposedly told Abraham to kill his son, Issac on the alter, that, under normal circumstances could be said to have been him ordering Abraham to 'murder his son', however, believers will say "ah, but God was not asking him to murder his son he was asking him to kill his son on the alter as a sacrifice to him, so it was different". I get that, and we all know the story, how the so-called 'Angel of the Lord' (some say that was Jesus) then stopped it anyway, but the point here is that under that hypothetical scenario that Cliffe was presented with where he replied with 'I would not worship God if God God decreed that murder was good', the God that Cliffe believes in could, in fact, have gotten him to commit an act that technically would be murder, back in the OT days if God called it something else other than murder, eg, if God told Cliffe to go and slaughter a bunch of people as a sacrifice to him and that's the rub. The God Christians believe in could, in theory, get them to do ANYTHING if it's called something else, 'sacrifice', 'submission to God' etc.

Cliffe Says - If there was such thing as subjective morality that would mean that anyone can do whatever they want and it would be okay cause everything is subjective and no one has the right to intervene. Cliff disagrees with subjective morality and thinks morality is objective when his religion is the one killing, raping, and enslaving everyone else. My Response - There is one particular religion that believes it's religion is the foundation of the world's morality, and because of that, they allowed themselves to butcher any religion they wanted and avoided holding themselves accountable as long as it benefitted the spreading of their religion. None of them were put in prison. What is the name of this religion.? We all know what the name of that religion is. Let's talk about another Inquisition that most people are not aware of. What were some of the atrocities committed by Christians towards Indian Hindus when they arrived in India? The following is a description of the Christian atrocities towards Hindus - According to Bentinck, Macaulay and Trevelyan, it was a god given responsibility to initiate the decline of Hinduism and the spread of Christianity. They enlisted Christian preachers and missionaries to convert Indians mainly in order to secure the Christian British Empire (1857 - 1859). Indians suffered through a major Christian conversion effort. It began with the insertion of Christianity, and, for it, thousands upon thousands of Hindu men were killed. Let not the subjects be deceived; thousands were deprived of their religion in the North-West, and thousands of Hindus were hung rather than allowed to convert to Christianity. The British destroyed numerous Hindu temples and murdered hundreds of thousands of people for their religion. Most people do not know about this mainly because history books downplay this. The British killed thousands of people, looted the wealth, and destroyed Hindu temples. One of the reasons we know so little of British atrocities towards Hindus was the British sedition laws which prevented the publication of books by Indian historians. It was impossible to estimate the number of Indian casualties; however, Indian casualties in just the Lucknow Residency area ran upwards of 20,000. British also adopted a policy of starving Indians to death. So, apparently, as long as Cliff's religion is the religion, who is murdering innocent people; then . . .

Whilst I have no doubt that Cliffe truly accepts the New Testament as being 'gospel truth' , I think the students have legitimate concerns for doubting whether Christianity is true, in every video he asks the students to read the Gospels and to ask themselves whether it reads as historical narrative or not. I'm not aware of to many historical accounts taken seriously that include supernatural accounts involving things which defy the laws of nature. Hence why many university students are not convinced of those New testament claims.

@@ultrastar23 Yes, i have a presupposition that miracles do not occur, but it's based on various observations, including what I see around me, lack of credible evidence, total absence of any verifiable proof, etc. However, I am not a closed book, if presented with such evidence, and it checks out, I would be more than willing to adjust my thinking concerning miracles. But what I cannot do is accept someone's word, or a claim in a book that a supernatural miracle occurred. If i told you I saw a man floating in mid air, and he floated up into the clouds, i think you'd be foolish to believe me. Or even if i told you that a man laid his hands over a blind mans eyes, and when he took his hands away, that blind man had regained his sight, .. again, you'd be foolish to believe me without sound verifiable evidence.

What "legitimate concerns" would those be and what's it to you anyhow? But then you have concerns based upon your own naturalistic assumptions (which you cannot demonstrate is even possible, let alone true). So if you assume one thing that you can't prove in order to argue against something else while ignoring the entire premise... Seems to be that you are demonstrating Proverbs 26:12 as usual.

Thanks, Tom. Aside from the alleged miracles supposedly performed by Jesus, themselves, even the situations that led to the need for him to step in with miracles in the first place also seem suspiciously made up to me. A bit like the way the comics make up highly unlikely scenarios for superheroes like Superman and Spiderman to come in and save the day but how often do any of those things happen in real life? For example (I mentioned this to someone else), the wedding where they 'ran out of wine', I mean, yes, mistakes can happen when organising an event like a wedding, sure, but how likely is it that the people that organised that wedding or any wedding would overlook having enough wine for the guests? Didn't they do a check to see how many would attend? I've been to two weddings and if anything, there is always plenty left over because the people that organise it purposely OVERESTIMATE attendance and consumption to be on the safe side, which is sensible. it would be sllly not to. If you know that you will have 100 guests attend an event you're organising, then if you're clever, you would provide enough food and drink for OVER 100. It never seems to occur to believers to wonder about the likelihood of a wine shortage at a wedding. it just comes across to me like something that was made up just so the writers could then incorporate this story of Jesus saving the day with a miracle. I have little doubt that Jesus historically existed but I am highly suspicious that there was more made up about him than was fact, including turning water into wine. I know many Christians might say "ah, you're missing the point, johnny boy, it was meant to symbolise the sanctity of marriage", yes, I get all that, I'm an ex-pentecostal, happy clappy believer that once said all of that stuff too but that's just avoiding scrutinizing the alleged miracle ITSELF and the highly unlikely circumstances surrounding it, which they understandably won't want to do.

10:45 - "The burden of proof is on you!" And given the God of the Bible, we have a rational basis for saying that murder is always wrong. The atheist/cynic believes murder is wrong as well, but has no rational basis for believing that is actually true. (Just note some of the comments from resident trolls on this very channel.) So the Christian can shoulder the burden of proof; the atheist/cynic cannot.

And this is an idiotic take. As an atheist I can say I would prefer to live in an society that subjectively believes murder is wrong based purely on the fact I would not liked to be murdered. And I feel as that that line of thought is more rational then believing it is wrong because a book claims a wizard says so.

@@jessebryant9233 Subjective does not mean arbitrary. A subjective opinion can still come as a result of reasonable thought, as I have shown with giving my reasoning for my morals. Morals merely are a sense of right and wrong. Pragmatism is a perfectly fine foundation for one's morals. And what is the difference between the term wizard and god? Both are character types that use magic to bend reality to their will.

The one thing I have heard Cliffe say many times is that Jesus said if we reject him we will go to hell. Jesus never said that though. he never mentions hell, neither does anyone else in the bible. The bible only talks about 'eternal separation from God' or 'the lake of fire' Jesus NEVER said anywhere that non-believers will 'go to hell'
