The more I listen to these people, the more I understand what's meant by "no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him" because they can listen to the gospel all day and not get it.

[@Billygoatsgrruff]

so true

[@thywillbedone3334]

Well said.. Can you answer me this.. Why do they always keep asking the same questions? Or is it as you have said.?

[@bradleye1964]

Perhaps it will take them days months years... For me I was 33-34 when Jesus really stepped into my life and in January 2020 I was saved by Jesus.

Cliff was feisty that day. Straight wrecking worldviews 😄

[@rosalyn6344]

It's been a great journey and still today whenever I know the bond I have with others who have faith in our Lord Jesus Christ since the day I baptized and have faith in him. I lool forward to the day I meet him. Please continue to pray for me and those still lost. God bless you all!

Powerful answers ..!! I love Cliff..!!

[@davidsantos-cb7hi]

Sometimes Cliff misses the correct answers but most of his answers r totally correct. I just pointed out 1 in my response.

[@fiskalumunon6737]

@@davidsantos-cb7hi to me it's okay, to miss something..that means he is a human. He went out there to universities for so many years and answered most of the questions from these young minds, to me..really amazing and show his love to God and to these students. And i and many others benefit with more undertanding of christianity and our Lord. Very best and pray for Cliff and his family..❤

Concerning the Hindu guy @14:31, the "four Vedas" doesn't even have a founder to even take them in consideration. Knowledge on the founders are important, that's how we know Scientology is fake because of the person & his continuing lifestyle indicates a higher probability of uncertainty (by their fruits we know them). Also Karma is inconsistent with reality, because in a bank they tell you what you own, how much you own & how much you have left to pay, in Karma you know nothing on those matters

[@rickyderby]

He read a document that Jesus lived and believes it. But then he doesn’t believe he resurrected when reading the same document 😂.

[@maseelliott4515]

Makes zero sense 😂😂

[@mbot48]

He's not comparing atheist to nazi's. He's just explaining the logic of moral relativism and how the the lawyers tried to use to justify the acts of the nazi society/government/culture at the time. And how people with their lip say they're a moral relativist when in reality they're as every single coherent individual make's objective statements and moral judgements all the time regardless of societies collective input.

[@josuepichardo5718]

Cliffe cornered that first guy so many times. He'd ask him the same questions he just answered to get the opposing view and the subject was avoided and changed. How convenient.

Question for Hindus on reincarnation: Where did the 6 Billion extra people come from since the population was 1 Billion around 200 years ago. Population today is about 7.4 Billion.

[@bryantfernandez393]

Creation. Reincarnation doesn't mean Just humans, everything is alive !

[@zeraphking1407]

Morals are anything but accepted in a global society.

[@Woreyel]

Actually yes I do have an objective standard, and my objective standard comes from an ultimate authority. And that authority is universal and unchanging, meaning that its moral code is absolute, necessary and universal.

[@kobe88us]

He is Risen

[@cherubimfilms]

Internal Consistency: As I've said, I haven't really found anything contradicting.. Literally Style: I thought it was Historical Narrative, but ill do more research :3 Archaeological evidence: You've missed my point. If harry potter was born in England, yeah ok, believable, could happen, doesn't mean it is, but possible. If Harry was born in Atlantis, no way possible for it to be true, since it doesn't exist. Manuscripts: Yeah agreed. Point isn't, the gap is close, must be true! That's stupid xD

[@adastra123]

I love this man , I have used his line or reasoning when atheists scoff at my worldview, even though I am Catholic I find some of the evangelical apologists easier to understand. God bless you Cliffe.

[@JohnjOcampo]

Catholicism does not follow Jesus.

[@cherubimfilms]

I am just trying to learn :3 Im still growing and I like diving myself into these things so my faith can be tested and I can try to find flaws that pastors or ministers would not mention, and see if I can find a solution or not :3

[@cherubimfilms]

Like I said before, I haven't found any inconsistencies. If it says jesus taught for 3 years, and another gospel says he taught for a year, that's not a contradiction. If it says he only taught for one year, and another said, he only talked for 3 years, then we got a problem. So going back to the same thing... I take the gospels as being accurate and I believe Jesus is much more reliable to put my faith in than anything else

[@LostinParadise03]

God bless you

[@MayonR]

The Babylonians were indeed conquered, so it actually did happen. This verse isn't calling people to dash babies against rocks but it is a sentiment being expressed in the call for divine justice. It is not an atrocity in any sense for God to punish the wicked, so to call for divine justice is not immoral. There is no Biblical slavery, genocide or mandates to torture. Slavery existed before any mandates surrounding it were formed, for example.

Well, I know it may be frustrating, but stick with it. Believe it or not, you've been given a fantastic opportunity. I've always wanted to visit Turkey, myself. And whatever you do, don't let your education stop, don't let it stagnate. You need the forward momentum to stick with it, so start thinking now about what colleges you want to apply for. If you pick the right one, you will look back on those years as the best days of your life. That, and pick a degree that YOU want, not someone else.

[@hoseamatavao1208]

[@cherubimfilms]

I apologise for not being more direct. People who claimed to have seen Christ risen from the dead: Peter, John, Paul, Simon, Andrew, James - son of Zebedee, John - Brother of James, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James - son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot. Those are the main ones. Paul writes 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 that over 500 people saw him risen.

[@ToastyMcGrath]

Yup. Although not for much longer, fingers crossed.

Having a worldview that allows for more people to be good doesn't make you good. I'm sorry, but I believe that only makes you lenient.

[@cherubimfilms]

Ok thanks, will do. From what I've heard, since the destruction of the temple in 70A.D. is not mentioned in the gospels, then people say its thought it was written before that... But I am not too knowledgeable with all of that.

[@MayonR]

This was the war mandate for that specific war. Even if it was just a strategic command it would not be an atrocity since the Hebrew society that was working to preserve itself would have to favor it's own interests. They would be dying, not for individual merit but a judgement on a society. [[The "good book" indeed]] You are referring to a historical record given in the Bible. You can't charge the Bible for citing a historical record.

[@Woreyel]

How do you know you can trust your own thoughts?

[@cherubimfilms]

Yeah I agree with your path thinking.. You shouldn't jump from atheist to christian because of bible.. It would be more, atheist, than to theist, than to christian, or reverse order.. Have you seen Cliffe talk about atheist worldview things? What do you think about that? It makes sense to me, with the moral relativism and the ideas of love being like, only a chemical reaction or if theres something more.. the whole order and design argument

[@ChiefCedricJohnson]

Proverbs 28:6 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

[@MayonR]

[[At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed them-men, women and children. ]] The Canaanites were dealt with for their wickedness. Deut 9:5"Not for your righteousness, or for the uprightness of your heart, do you go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD your God does drive them out from before you, and that he may perform the word which the LORD swore unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. "

[@cherubimfilms]

Oh yes! I saw that episode. You should, if you haven't already, do debates with people like Cliffe, or William Lane Craig etc.. That'll be interesting to watch :3

[@cherubimfilms]

I think you misunderstood me. Ok, there are gaps in other religions... 500 years between Buddha and his writings.. But the vast majority of scholars take these texts as being reliable, meaning, we have accurate information of what the avatars of Hinduism teaches, what Buddha did and taught, and what Muhammad did and taught... Same with Jesus Based on the consistencies between the texts, etc..

[@betterworld1]

great

[@cherubimfilms]

haha yeah! Well thats why I got into studying more theology.. Growing up in Christian background, I just accepted it... Living in a Muslim country, started getting me thinking and all that. Hearing the Mosques everyday, firstly annoying sound, but secondly got me sparked to do research! :3

[@cherubimfilms]

Yeah cheers! I am a very keen videographer and what to go into making films. I probably won't do any major theology courses, so I won't be able to defend what I believe, whatever it is (subject to change)... But it's interesting to look at it all.

[@maseelliott4515]

Hey maybe we can do something together I'm finishing my degree I want to write and direct films I want to make one about Jesus

[@oceanceaser44]

I never said that miracles were impossible, what I was trying to say was that it is an extraordinary claim that a person performed an action that seems impossible, so it would require extraordinary evidence for me to believe it. Just like with Chris angel, if he was walking on the sidewalk, nobody would have such a hard time believing that he was performing this action, compared to when he walked on water.

[@josh-wyatt-sbx]

Looking deeper into the New Testament, we see that Christ appeared to over 500 people over a period of 40 days in different places and different times, also that one of the apostles, James in Acts 12:2 was killed. The other apostles we're killed, looking at just history. If you look at the New Testament, you'll find it it is historically accurate. Same with the Qu'ran, Buddah's etc.. So read them as history, and see where the evidence points you to. For me, it's Christ.

[@cherubimfilms]

The Gospels, I think, are very honest when it comes to the disciples xD they aren't loyal at all. One of them betrayed Jesus while the rest ran away when he died. That's only, however, if you think the gospels are telling the truth ;) From what I've seen from phycology, people don't die to cover up lies... So from what Cliffe says, the guys who claimed to have seen Christ risen, and died for what they had saw, brings more credibility

[@MayonR]

Numbers 31 did not call for genocide but actually brought many into their fold. 1 Samuel did not call for genocide since the charge against the Amelikites was a 400 year old and called for retributory justice for the atrocity the Amelikites committed. Likely you are referring to Deuteronomy mandates to "drive the inhabitants away" which is not a call for genocide. Addressing each point is not dodging the issue, LOL.

[@cherubimfilms]

But isn't it widely accepted that Matthew, Mark and John were eyewitnesses of Jesus? I've looked at many sources that say they are. The sources could be wrong... But I hear even skeptics say they were eye wtinesses

[@dmurphin]

Its just not a fair fight. These students have not thought through their worldview to its logical conclusions.

[@JohnjOcampo]

That's why he is there to teach them, it's not about cliffe winning arguments.

[@maseelliott4515]

Well because there's no logical conclusion to thier worldview these are young adults not kids who just want to live a life they want to live no evidence living for anything other then Jesus leaves you feeling empty inside

[@cherubimfilms]

Yeah ok I can agree on that. If the gap is close, doesn't make it true. But if there is a claim thats 2000 years apart in when it happened, and the first documentation of it... With the situation being about a person or people.. I find that harder to believe that the document is accurate. So with the Gospels.. I think we have what the original people wrote. Doesn't mean their claims are true, but what they wrote hasnt been corrupted or changed

[@swamislocal1]

Karmic reincarnation is ridiculous. The easiest way to expose it is to ask the Hindu if he knows anyone who is perfectly good, thus escaping Karma. The answer is always "no, I don't know anyone perfect." Jesus came to "set the captives free" from the bondage self oriented pursuits of religiousity.

[@ToastyMcGrath]

When moral nations go to war, it is not a war of genocide, Mayon. I don't know what sort of thing counts as an atrocity in your book, but that certainly counts as one in mine.

That was the fulfillment of a prophecy of which that is the very deed that the Babylonians committed and as a consequence according to the principle of retaliation, it was returned to them. Our modern laws are based on lex talionis principles as well.

[@cherubimfilms]

No because I am not in university yet... :3 oh boy ill get some smashing for that. I'm currently in grade 10~11. Supposed to be in 11, moved from Sydney to Istanbul, due to weird school system, dropped to 10.

[@josh-wyatt-sbx]

That's fine. I just think its clear Jesus existed, and that we have an accurate account of who he was and his teachings. For me, since he died and rose from the dead, that shows me he has God like powers or is God. His life of amazing ethical teachings is just a bonus. It's hard to believe someone rose from the dead, but since people were willing to die, claiming to have seen Christ risen from the dead, it gives it a lot of credibility. They didn't die for a brief but for they claimed to see

[@allanrobis777]

i don't know about you...but I saw moses there.

[@cherubimfilms]

ok cool, ill have a look :)

[@MayonR]

[[And Mayon, never call genocide "justice" ever again.]] Begging the question by assuming I believe genocide is justice or that the Bible called for genocide. I can elaborate even further on this since genocide is a very new word so is a very general term.

[@MayonR]

The very description of "virgins" entails their innocence. Young males were less likely to become loyal to the Hebrews within their society than innocent young maidens who would marry into the society. The non-virgin Midianites were the guilty party for the mandated justice to begin with.

[@cherubimfilms]

I dont understand... History based on eyewitness accounts... right? So we have Mark writing in the Gospel, that he saw this Jesus walked on water.. turned water into wine.. hung out with whacky people.. got crucified and then he saw him risen from the dead. Same situation with the other gospels, except Luke, where luke interviewed many eye witnesses and got wrote the gospel based on that. 4 different accounts, all agreeing with one another. The evidence is, that it happened...

[@cherubimfilms]

My apologies, I was just giving an example of how the gospels work.. they're just writing down what they saw. I realise I mistakenly linked that miracle to Mark. :3

[@oceanceaser44]

Nirvana, in Hindu philosophy, means to be at one with Brahman. He also never claimed that it was Hindu conception.

[@cherubimfilms]

Ok I see the point. Though I think we don't need all things archaeology found for it to be true.. Possible its been destroyed over the years or it hasn't been discovered. Like the recent discovery of pool of Siloam?

[@ToastyMcGrath]

Psalm 137:9 is a good start.

[@cherubimfilms]

How can you say Pul was not an eye witness? He claimed to have seen Christ risen, in person, in 1 Corinthians 15:8

The point being with that, is you have 4 different prospectives... If they we're all the exact same, then we know they all copied each other, but because they are all a little different, it can show a little more credibility, right? Like if it was all the same, I would think less of it... It's not saying a lot, but its something

Jesus came to Save us, to pull us out from our inherited sin that also nailed Him on the Cross, and we all are born in that inherited state that separate us from God! We are all equally sick and guilty in that regard from birth as if we were one person in Gods eyes! When we get Baptized with God's Holy Fire we become His people, that is His Miracle in us, with that comes the gift of Faith in the process given to us by Him! So when we become his people we are new creation wich are redeemed by Jesus, we have undeservedly received the Righteousness of Jesus, therefore our murder of him will not be imputed to us, we are forgiven by His Grace! ✝ But if we choose our turning away from Him, and remain turned away, then the murder of Him will be imputed to us + all our personal sins that we have committed on the Day of Judgment!

[@ToastyMcGrath]

Or how about “At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed them-men, women and children. We left no survivors.”

[@ChiefCedricJohnson]

Yes, and please name your sources for these events. There's a reason I keep asking you this.

[@JasonAndOwen]

cliffe, you actually CAN prove god and christ. all you have to do is read the bible and then read the part where it says "ask for anything in my name and you shall recieve." then go up to someone with a broken arm or leg and say "be healed, in jesus' name" and jesus will heal it because its god's will to heal. ive seen it happen like 10 times in front of me!

[@Woreyel]

ahuh.... right..

[@cherubimfilms]

I don't mean to make 'exceptions'... I'm trying to find truth and go where the evidence points me. With the point you're making there, im not saying since the texts are close together, than its true... I'm saying if the gap is close, it's very likely we have the actual documents of what they original people, whoever they are, wrote - that it hasnt been corrupted. Simple logic, if something has 1000 year gap vs 60... More likely the 60 year gap will be less corrupt.

[@zakariyarazi4256]

I am a Hindu and I am a follower of Christ. There is no reason not to follow Christ after a Hindu knows him. Only a proud and superficial Hindu will bring Nirvana (Nirvana is actually in Buddhism, Muksha is Hinduism), Reincarnation, Karma etc. to debate against Christ. Jesus Christ is the God of every Hindu, Muslims, Atheists and everyone.

[@Woreyel]

But it isn't. Gods nature is necessary, unchanging and eternal. It isn't immoral to "kill" but it is by definition, to murder. Also, Gods moral character must be logically consistent. For instance, it can't be moral for God to allow rape, because rape, by definition is immoral. If you think Jesus miracles were merely illusions, could you then make a sound argument that life is an illusion? You need to read the gospels in context, instead of taking parts out and reading them by their own.

[@oceanceaser44]

You compared Jesus to Aristotle and others. Here is the difference: Jesus says you are required to believe in him to go to heaven, and also claims to be have supernatural powers and other such extraordinary claims. Aristotle makes no such claims, and does not require belief in him to use his lessons and ideas. It does not matter if Aristotle existed or was just a story made up by people, because his teachings stand independent of him. I do believe Jesus existed, I don't believe he is God.
