Arrogance is ignorance. This is what I run into every time someone opposes my testimony. People who have never read the Bible or studied theology that think their general knowledge is a good explanation for why God doesn't exist. Bro walked in like he was a theologian and had all the answers. I love him. The same way God loved me when I didn't want Him to love me and I overdosed twelve times trying to kill myself. All glory to God. Again you have outdone yourself brother 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿

People of all kinds please state if you are christian or muslim, atheists, agnostics or any combination of those and then if willing participate in the test. As well, looking for 5 good moral theist questions for atheists/agnostics. #1 You see a child drowning in a shallow pool and notice a person just watching that is able to save the child with no risk to themselves but is not, is that persons non action moral? #2 If you go to save the child, the man tells you to stop as he was told it was for the greater good, but he does not know what that is, do you continue to save the child? #3 Is it an act of justice to punish innocent people for the crimes of others? #4 If you were able to stop it and knew a person was about to grape a child would you stop it? #5 Would you consider a parent who put their kids in a room with a poison fruit and told the kids not to eat it but then also put the best con artist in the room with the children knowing the con artist will get the kids to eat the fruit and the parent does nothing to stop it a good parent?

I have zero respect for people who ask a question then repeatedly cut you off when you try to answer. They ask a question and there is only one acceptable answer to them and that is that you just agree with them. Once they sense there is a different point of view or an objection to the premise of their question they cut you off. This shows a weak mind that is afraid to be exposed to other points of view.

You cannot out psychologize the Bible for God not to throw you into hell for all eternity. In other words, you cannot come up with a good enough excuse here and now, so you will not be able to on judgment day. If you say you did not want to be born, God is going to say you should’ve been born again, that means become a Christian so that’s not gonna work. And there are no other excuses try to think of one. So now you know for the first time in your life, that the Bible is smarter than you and it is a steel trap, smarter than all of mankind, What should you do then? So at least investigate and look to see that these things are true, because right now you just learned the Bible is smarter than you, and you will be accountable for your life on judgment day before God! Prophecy, the Bible is 27% prophecy, that’s future history written in advance. God‘s really sticking his neck out to get it cut off if he’s wrong, but he hasn’t been wrong about the thousands of prophecies that were fulfilled, so he’ll be right about the end of the world prophecies as well and you’ll have no excuse on judgment day for not looking for truth! Caveat: you cannot look for God in times of chaos says Isaiah 45:19, so you better do it now. In other words,You’ll be too worried about your own survival when chaos hits, than your eternal destiny! Statistic probability of 40 writers writing the Bible with zero margin of deviation, proves God wrote the Bible through the 40 writers! God authored the Bible! DNA does not auto encrypt, the code writer is outside of the code of the 3300000,000,000 lines of computer code in the human genome of our DNA! So who wrote the code to such sophistication? 1,000,000 seconds is 12 days, 1,000,000,000 seconds is 32 years! That’s the difference between 1 million and 1 billion! One person’s DNA could fill the Grand Canyon up to 50 times full of books. John 21:25 “I suppose everything Jesus did, the world wouldn’t have enough room for the books telling of it.“ this verse would be fulfilled! Psalm 139:16 “in my members you have written many books“! Psalm 139 is about the human body!

@JP-je6jg correct i am a Christian. I never said I WAS right lol but, if it is true I won eternity. If not, then you won am argument. (That's the answer to your first question.) And secondly, in bible, Paul says in 1 Corinthians 15: 14. "And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith." If jesus didn't really die and rise from the dead then we live in vain and everything we do is for naught. There's no reason to go to church or ask for forgiveness. It's the same in our brains. No one dies for a lie. Ppl could die for a lie they were made to belive is true but not a truth that is a lie. Got me??? (Saying it in a friendly tone.)

@@santiagorivas1950 That word, eternity...that's an awfully long time...what do we do in heaven?...ok what do people who go to heaven do? (No way I'd be going) ...is one lifetime worth an eternity of either punishment or reward? I'm afraid I fundamentally disagree. Why on earth would our lives count for less without god? I can still love and fear and laugh and hope as much as any theist. I still have dreams and aspirations. I can still be a good person and aim to make the world a better place. God doesn't have a monopoly on that, heck, id say the world can be moral in spite of religion. Why does Jesus having died for us make our lives worth more? I agree people wouldn't die for a lie...but as you point out, people will die for what they believe to be true, whether it is or not. Look at Heaven's Gate...or even any Islamist terrorist. They must believe in their cause, but presumably you, as a Christian, must disagree with them and think it a lie.

When Dr. Turek says things like “hold on nick hold on” I find it oddly respectful, because there’s a quote that says “never stop your enemy from making a mistake”, which is Machiavellian in nature. When Dr. Turek says to hold on, he’s trying to prevent the person from making a fool of themselves and being overly emotional and incoherent. He helps them to clarify their point, so as to help them facilitate an air of dignity. Dr. Turek doesn’t want to embarrass people or “gotcha” them. He truly believes what he is saying and is being as intellectually honest as I can tell. He always shows respect regardless of if a person’s mind has been changed, and doesn’t want the audience laughing at disagreers. True maturity and humility.

I was raised in a loving atheistic family and only last year have my eyes been opened to the truth of the Word (Aleluia!). Been watching everything all you post, and I thank you (and all of your subscribers, me included), for the beautiful content. I think this kind of approaches are very helpful, not that my faith will be increased by it, but it's definitely inspiring to hear brighter and wiser people than me, explaining all the different facets of God's truth. I think all the proofs and evidences for the claim have been layed down before us during His-Story, there's only a small (giant) leap of faith required to feel how blessed we are. That's up to each soul individually, and is beyond logic or explanation. That's probably the reason why it feels so miraculous what happened to me, and to all of you probably too. It brought a new meaning to the expression "seek and you shall find..." Well... I've found you bro! Yah Bless 🙏🏻✨

He was coming into this saying "What proof do you have that you are right and others are wrong when they can point to just as many proofs as you for why they are right?" So the proofs this person gave at the beginning are just as valid as if a Muslim was up there giving proof about Allah. I very much doubt the speaker said why everyone else's proofs were wrong while his was right. For the math problem he quickly blew through it and if everyone at the table came forward with evidence to show that their answer was correct then he wants to know why that person's claim is more valid than everyone else's. A better example would be for this math problem "4x = y" what is x and y? He wants to know why this person is the right one when everyone else can come up with their own answer to show they are right.

I didn't find Nick's question too tough at all. It's a pretty popular one among atheists. When Nick asked his question, the first thing I would've said was, "Why are you asking?" This gets them to look inward and think or at least put them on notice that I've already put it through a thought process. I've heard a LOT of Christians that don't. I can't tell you how many times I've listened to atheist radio talk show hosts like Tom Leykis or Ray Taliaferro on KGO and their ilk talking to Christians who go to battle "in their underwear." When someone asks me a question, I don't just jump to the answer. Sometimes I don't answer at all because in asking why they're asking their question, I'm sussing out their REAL reason for asking, which isn't an actual answer, but an attempt to stump me or whoever they're talking to, in which case, they don't deserve an answer because they really don't care...they're just trying to trip YOU up.

@@deontelipscomb5417 None of that makes any sense at all. Worse, it's immoral for somebody else to be punished for something you did wrong. It's simply unjust, barbaric, immoral. We wouldn't accept it in any system of court justice. Let's say I committed a crime and was found guilty in court and then sentenced to torture and death. Then let's say one of my parents stepped forward and said they'll take the punishment so that I don't have to. Is that justice? What does it say about the entity inflicting the punishment that it can vindictuvely torture and kill somebody who did not commit the crime? That it doesn't care as long as somebody gets tortured and killed? Even worse, let's say that it's the judge who set this law that decides to take the punishment on my behalf. Not only is that barbaric, unjust, vengeful and immoral, it's literally sadistic and insane.

I'm so thankful he is who he is! ...its so sad how people of the world can't(or won't)see Jesus for who he is. We were condemned to hell, but he loved us enough to die a brutal death, so we no longer have to go to hell if we are willing to come to a point in our life where we will repent of our sins we have done against him and believe on Jesus Christ! His salvation is free to us, but it costs Jesus Christ everything! Now that is Love!

Care ONLY that others are good people too, by whatever means to come to wanting or being a good person. He told us NOT to proclaim our faith in public or try to prove our faith because that's what hypocrites do. He told us there was NO NEED to prove God's existence.

For sure. It's so tempting after hearing theists blurt out nonsense to call them delusional and move on with your day, but to continuously listen to the broken logic and try to counter it is commendable. This is likely why most yt atheists who make commentary on religion are some of the kindest, most patient people on the entire platform.

Imagine being a movie reviewer and walking in to interview Tom Cruise about his new Top Gun movie but you haven’t even watched it. You’re critical about it but you haven’t even watched it. That’s what Nick did right here and it shows his lack of character and disrespect for others. Nick should have had the decency to listen to Frank’s lecture and then ask questions. These types of people are not interested in the truth because they don’t want to be accountable for their own sins. If they were interested in the truth, they would seek it out like Frank and so many other former atheists have done. If Nick was interested in finding the truth, he would have listened to Frank’s lecture before asking questions.

Good point, and here’s some evidence: You cannot out psychologize the Bible for God not to throw you into hell for all eternity. In other words, you cannot come up with a good enough excuse here and now, so you will not be able to on judgment day. If you say you did not want to be born, God is going to say you should’ve been born again, that means become a Christian so that’s not gonna work. And there are no other excuses try to think of one. So now you know for the first time in your life, that the Bible is smarter than you and it is a steel trap, smarter than all of mankind, What should you do then? So at least investigate and look to see that these things are true, because right now you just learned the Bible is smarter than you, and you will be accountable for your life on judgment day before God! Prophecy, the Bible is 27% prophecy, that’s future history written in advance. God‘s really sticking his neck out to get it cut off if he’s wrong, but he hasn’t been wrong about the thousands of prophecies that were fulfilled, so he’ll be right about the end of the world prophecies as well and you’ll have no excuse on judgment day for not looking for truth! Caveat: you cannot look for God in times of chaos says Isaiah 45:19, so you better do it now. In other words,You’ll be too worried about your own survival when chaos hits, than your eternal destiny! Statistic probability of 40 writers writing the Bible with zero margin of deviation, proves God wrote the Bible through the 40 writers! God authored the Bible! DNA does not auto encrypt, the code writer is outside of the code of the 3300000,000,000 lines of computer code in the human genome of our DNA! So who wrote the code to such sophistication? 1,000,000 seconds is 12 days, 1,000,000,000 seconds is 32 years! That’s the difference between 1 million and 1 billion! One person’s DNA could fill the Grand Canyon up to 50 times full of books. John 21:25 “I suppose everything Jesus did, the world wouldn’t have enough room for the books telling of it.“ this verse would be fulfilled! Psalm 139:16 “in my members you have written many books“!

But, if I’m right, and you’re wrong, then I get to live for eternity with my Lord and Savior with whom I love. And the best part of it all is, it’s free. You on the other hand will live in eternal damnation where their is weeping and gnashing of teeth. I go on to tell them that I, nor anyone else is forcing you to believe. It’s up to you, and you alone. So what do you care that I believe, and you don’t. If you’re convinced that you’re right, then let me be. Im doing nothing to you. Unless of course, you have doubt in what you’re saying, and are looking for answers. …..then the conversation really begins…..

Was mentally ill and eventually physically ill and almost certain to die and no hope from doctors( they called me abnormal). So started to search god, visited temples, recited prayers and atlast Jesus came to me and here I am alive and having life in abundance. No more mental or physical illness that too without pill(recovered in hardly 2-3 months after I met Jesus i.e and in the time when doctors had already declared me abnormal). I Praise him with my testimony.😊 So, way might be narrow, but not hard.Bcoz it is by his grace we are saved not by our works. And thus I can say confidently that there is God and that Jesus is God.😊

A Christian, a Muslim, a Hindu, and a Buddhist were seated at a table, facing north, south, east, and west respectively. When asked to identify the center of the table, the Christian pointed north, the Muslim south, the Hindu east, and the Buddhist west. Observing this, an atheist who had been watching from the sidelines concluded with a degree of certainty, "The center of the table does not exist!"

Or, a different atheist would say, the centre of the table is the centre of the table and none of those around the table are looking in the right place. The joke is flawed, if the words 'centre of the table' are replaced with god, as the joke implies, then the only logical conclusion made by the atheist (assuming he or she is rational) would be that each person has a different idea and the existance of god cannot be boiled down to a single idea based on their diverse cultural interpretations. The centre of the table is there in the joke, and undeniable. The atheist would be able to see it. The joke is almost funny, but not written cleverly enough to work. The fact that god is not visible is what leads, amongst many other factors, to atheists not having the belief in god (s). An atheist needs proof of existance, therefore the centre of the table provides that in this case. If the table was invisible, and claimed by those around it to be there (irrespectove of where they are pointing) I would want its existance proven by putting a glass on it. If the glass falls, I will suspend my belief until such time as evidence is demonstrated.

​@@clarkegibson464 Actually, the more accurate scenario would involve the group arguing over how the table got there. The Christian would claim to know who built the table, and that he knows the builder personally. The Muslim would claim to know who built the table, but call the Christian a blasphemer because the builder of the table is far too important to talk to just anybody. I don't know much about Buddhism or Hinduism, but I suspect they would claim that there were many builders of the table. The atheist isn't even sitting at the table. He just stands there above the rest, mocking them for even claiming there was a builder to begin with. The atheist would claim that the table needs no builder, that its intricate design is simply a matter of many coincidences happening over a long period of time. The atheist claims that the existence of the table is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a builder.

I've been through so many of these types of conversations with non-believers that I think I'm finally coming around to the idea that learning how to get past their defenses and getting to the real person is the missing ingredient in our modern Evangelical evangelism. That you can't get from watching Christian debates online. In fact, I am beginning to think that this approach is actually just another impediment. A substitute for the real thing, which is learning how to be much more personal. It's as if Frank here is just dealing with this young man's "smoke screen" that he has erected to hide his real person. Nick doesn't care whether there's a God or not. Frank does it extremely well, but I wonder if it's not merely "the seed that fell along the path" kind of evangelism. We have to do better than just learning how to answer their objections.

I'm inclined to agree but I think this is what Jesus meant by "doing greater works". As in a multitude of different ppl have different ministries for reaching different types of ppl...(since Jesus' short ministry was primarily to the Jews). These intellectual apologetics work for some ppl where emotional appeals might fail. But for me I've never been swayed by these kind of apologetic arguments, (but then again I was born & rasied in a Christian household). The main reason I watch videos like this is to learn different methods for witnessing to others (since a lot of American churches neglect to prioritize teaching its converts how to spread the Gospel).

Oh yeah, don’t think that I am dismissing this type of thing as useless or of no value. They are of great value. All I’m really trying to get at is that one should not think that this is what you want to get good at. The”aim of our charge” isn’t to be able to win arguments, although we should learn how to “destroy arguments and every proud obstacle to the knowledge of God” but that should come AFTER our own obedience is complete.

But the “greater works than these will be do” is referring to is enabling one to enter into eternal life, since every one of the people Jesus healed all died anyway, so granting eternal life through us is of even greater works than physical miracles, all of which are simply typologies of spiritual transformations.

Jesus reached people by loving them. Forgiving them. Showing kindness, love, mercy, forgiveness, even for His enemies, which is unheard of in our society. He was humble and rejected no one. He didn't look down on others, but saw that we're all sinful and broken, and He loved us, unconditionally, and sacrificially, that's what reaches people. It's God's love and grace that inspires change. Jesus came to save, not condemn, but so many times, as Christians, we judge and condemn others which pushes them further away from God, because when we reject them, they think that God does also, when He doesn't. It's Good News. Just sharing...

The real problem with non-believers is that, when they ask for evidence of God, and you give them evidence, they refuse to accept it as evidence. Suppose I told an historian that I don't believe George Washington was a real person. So the historian gives me a list of evidence like his grave site, his writings, a painting, a granite monument, his hand written signature on documents, testimonies from witnesses, results of military campaigns, his house, and so on but I immediately reject all of them claiming that every one on them can be faked. The historian would consider me deranged. But this is essentially what non-believers are doing. They won't accept any evidence no matter how good. Richard Dawkins recently said in an interview, "If all the stars were rearranged to spell out 'I am God' I still wouldn't believe it. I would think it was aliens messing with us." That statement pretty much summarizes how non-believers think.

I think it's ok to listen to someone challenge your authority and not have to justify yourself. Every conversation doesn't have to be an endless debate. Simply respond, "OK, thank you for sharing your opinion. Are you asking a question because you want to know something, or is your question just a jab? And if you are humble enough to admit you have a desire for knowledge, can you listen with an open mind? Good! Let's begin. Or, ok. Thank you for your thoughts.

I was deeply involved into the New Age and witchcraft of all sorts. Both of my grandmother's performed miracles I've seen with my eyes. I have seen tarot readings with 100% accuracy and at one point I tried manifesting my girlfriend because I thought I was actually god. Anyways the Lord opened my eyes slowly and he delivered me from a narcissistic relationship. But in all of this I thought ( God saved me so now he is going to save my relationship ). I started being angry with God and questioned how is he Sovereign and why did he allow those New Age demons and etc to fool me for years in the first place and give me a counter-feit relationship. I got a response to my prayer in a day. I cried almost the entire day. I realized I was born a Christian ( who didn't know his Bible ), but the moment I started seeing all of those false demonic teachings and miracles I ate them like bread. I am a worthless garbage , I realized even as I was repenting my heart posture was ( I am repenting for real this time, maybe he will give me a miracle or restore me). God is not our vending machine and we are not saved by our works, we are all worthless sinners, only He is worthy.

To be honest, it's very difficult to PERSUADE soneone (especially someone with a powerful intellect) of a spiritual point. My own experience is that that person must first live enough and love enough and worry enough and struggle enough, enough to come to the absolute dead-end of his mind. He must expreience deeply and suffer terribly, bitterly from the limitations of his own intellect. Then he will, because he must, throw up his hands and admit that his mind is not getting him anywhere useful. THEN and only then the door cracks open, and this type of "how to resolve this paradox, how to address this conundrum" type of conversation will simply disappear because there is no need for it.

That what makes The Day Jesus returns so Awesome & so Terrible- so Beautiful and yet so dreadful- Atheism is a temporary position. That’s Why the Bible says the Fool has said in his heart there is no God- After all this fruitless articulation, What words will Atheists use when they stand before the God the spent the Entire Life denying the existence of? “My Bad”? Ok I have proof now I believe- Then they’ll say “Lord Lord”. And He’ll say depart from Me, Ye worker of iniquity, I never knew you…. That’s Dreadful. You snuggly debated the person who took time to present you with the Truth that could save your soul.

He does not. And then he offers some small humility in suggesting it's perhaps semantics. But he doesn't understand what "semantics" means either. You can't back away from the poverty of your position by claiming the words you used are insufficient and then inserting presumed thoughts and points--presumed because you haven't even the skill to make them, let alone defend them. Some words and "semantics" that would be particularly useful for him? The thousands that were shared during a discussion he didn't even bother to attend. It's probably safe to deduce he's quite sure he already knows what would have been said. It's EVIDENT that he does not.

To be honest , I have studied Buddhism Islam and Hinduism for a period of time and it became quick knowledge to me that many of those religions the followers do not have any garuntee that they will enter heaven-Moksha(Hinduism), Nirvana(Buddhism), or Jannah(Islam) People in general may appear confident in the anything they hold dear to themselves, but if you ask anyone how they feel their chances are getting into heaven they always say they don’t know or it’s “If Allah wills” or “hopefully I get reincarnated into something good”, really they are placing their faith on chance rather than something firm. That’s the difference between worldly confidence and being Confident in Christ. We have the eternal Guarantee because of what Our God did for us at the cross!

I keep telling people "When a doctor talks health, everyone listens. When an engineer talks house building, everyone listens. When a Christian talks about God, His revelation and what it means, everyone cuts them off and shuts them up". It's funny, because a non-Christian can't know more of the Bible and God than an actual Christian.
