[@bruceslater7169]

JonJorgenson Hey Jon, been watching your videos but you like most Preachers have the alcohol answer wrong. Pastors need to give up the booze- When I came to Christ I gave up alcohol, smoking, swearing and other vices, coming from a long line of drunks. I then had Pastors almost encouraging me to take it up again and telling me Jesus drunk wine. I thought the church would be one safe place for me. I don’t agree with how most Pastors speak about alcohol. Paul tells Timothy to have wine for his stomach illness and that old women shouldn’t have too much wine. However the Old Testament commanded Priests to abstain from wine and Paul commands Elders And Bishops to remain sober. Jesus never drank wine either. Why? So that they do not cause someone like myself to stumble. This is so unpopular because most Preachers hate giving up their drink. Only when they give up the the booze will a church see revival because it is simply not safe for people like me. Kia Kaha

It depends what God you're talking about. small g god called satan, or the true God called Yahveh, who became a human being and His name is Jesus Christ, to save us from our sins. He, the creator God, does love us all, all of us men, that is why He died for us on the cross. We're all wonderfully and fearfully made(psalm 139:14) and in the beginning (Genesis chapter 2 verses 1-3)God said it was all very good. But we're nothing but flesh and our beauty is fleeting. We're not by nature truly, in an absolute sense, all of those attributes the guy listed above. But Jesus Christ can help you, by His strength, to help you to become those in the true sense. God bless

"I am awesome" is what we are all about. but for me personally, I have struggled to know who I am as a man. Lately, since I saw your video, God has used it to remind me of who I am as a man, a husband, a father, and a friend.

Atheists, do understand that you have your own opinion about things and the religious have their own reasons to have the faith they have. Just don't spread hatred against people who believe in the existence of God just because you don't. As far as the video conveys, for me, it is the truth.

I really needed this. I watched this over and over. I was about to do something i would regret later on but this helped me.

[@Misfitxy]

The Anima Series videos are breathtaking. The first time I saw the one for women, I cried. I have known so many wonderful women throughout my life, many of whom never heard these kinds of positive words said about themselves. I suppose that might be partly because I am past the half-century mark in age, and when I was growing up things were much different. With all of the emotion that the video for women stirred in me I was eager to find one for men. I was not let down. The first time I watched this one I cried also. It may surprise some people, but many men, in the secret places inside ourselves where we hide these things, do not believe in themselves either. I know I don't. Viewing this video gives me hope, courage, and the will to soldier on when sometimes I would really just like to give up. You can be anybody, of any faith, or of no faith, and get something from this man's words. What is wrong with saying empowering things about every human being? Our society has become increasingly negative, and perhaps there is justification for that point of view. However, hearing empowering positive things will definitely help us change that negative feeling. So, keep spouting your words Jon and I, as well as many others, will keep listening.

[@angellhw9058]

To not believe in God, I've noticed many atheists go out of their way to talk about Someone who they claim doesn't exist. If they don't believe, why do they care so much that someone else does? Sounds more like they may be angry at God, not that they believe He doesn't exists. Anger at God can still be the beginning of a wonderful relationship with Him. Talk to Him and let Him heal you. He can handle your true feelings, even if they're dark and angry. Just give them over to Him and let it out. Ask to know Him, for who He truly is.

To all the women in the comments complaining about how this video is sexist... Well your the one who has a stereotypical picture of a man in your head. We need motivation sometimes too. We need a little bit of inspiration sometimes. But we live in a world were if we show weakness even to our spouse, we are frowned upon. We are not machines all the time we have times where we have to break down and relax a bit. We have the love of humanity in our hearts for crying out loud. Yes a man should be strong but there is a time and a place where can finally let loose bottled frustration and sorrows. A man should also be a gentleman as well, if you think I implied that he shouldn't you have taken this out of context.

You share your genes with your parents and you might resemble them physically. By being an Atheist you bring change to our broken world.

You know what really kills me? Some of the comments on videos like this. The comments below are valid, but in such a negative light. Where is the emphasis on the fact that a little love, a little good, a little uplifting can go a long way? Where is the emphasis on doing what you can and letting God take care of the rest... that we are not God but we strive to share His love and even if we don't tell the story perfectly that we have hope that God will use our talents and our message to bring people closer to Him? We are not called to be perfect, we are called to love one another and lift one another up. This "pseudo-evangelism" might be the very thing that causes someone to open their bible tonight.

So many people need to hear this message and realize who they really are! Ty for making this video. .Encouraging & amazing!

[@orangexlightning]

I don't come to this video as much as I should...I come when everything is at worst...I need to always keep this in my heart and soul...

The only thing I slightly disagree with is the statement, "I am awesome". Because while we are beautiful creations of the living God, we most certainly are not awesome. We are wretched sinners, all falling short of God's standard. But that is why we need the gospel. In God's grace, he grants us that redemption of sin and reconciliation with Him as a result of it. It is by no means anything we do on our own, it all demonstrated the power and immense love and grace of God. So, no, on our own, we are far from awesome. But God, and what He can do through, now that TRULY is awesome

Correction; we WERE wretched sinners, until Jesus made us righteous with His blood.

[@mine9615]

TheJustin4848 Yeah like until half a second later when we became wretched sinners again. :)

[@TheJustin4848]

Mine What are you talking about?

[@mine9615]

Remember that time when god mass murdered his own children with a flood? That sure was an act of love :)

[@TheJustin4848]

Mine You sound bitter. Have you had bad experiences with Christianity?

[@supercesarortiz]

Atheist come over here and comment stupidities. Just ignore them, they just want attention.

[@pdvege]

yap yap :D

[@supercesarortiz]

***** the hypocrisy. You people say that we are stupid for our beliefs.

[@supercesarortiz]

***** oh and we're 77 percent of the population in america and 33 in the word sooo

[@xXWhatzUpH8erzXx]

That's so not nice The original comment wasn't supposed to be hurtful he was just trying to keep the haters out I don't mean to be rude but I've never seen a nice, calm comment from atheists on comments, they're always calling others names and insulting, just like you. 100$ says your reply will be the exact same? Honestly I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just telling you what I see. I don't have anything against atheists, it's just people like you who piss me off by calling others names. But I don't care, I still don't hate you. I love you.

[@supercesarortiz]

***** you just want attention

[@GragulasGaming]

[@QbrotherSoulStar]

[@Slime5276]

has anyone compared the boy version and the girl version.

[@eminek8526]

Mehrin Ali yeah, why?

[@luckystarpiano]

Mehrin Ali I honestly wanted to like this and be nothing but supportive- but I did wonder-- why could he not say the same things about women in terms of being able to be anything - engineer, musician etc and being able to Change the world. It would have empowered a lot of women are afraid and are holding back .. just my humble opinion

[@positivevibes5364]

Both are amazing

[@laraquilban4951]

He never mentioned any religion. He just mentioned God psh people

[@marinahodges1838]
