Josh makes a heck of a good point in that the problem with a lot of athiests isn't based on intellect, but morality. highwind8124 obviously knows nothing of Josh McDowell's track record when he makes the assertion of his business and ironically uses an ad hominem to attack McDowell when he is using one himself. If that is the fuel for the new athiest movement, I expect it to fall flat very quickly.

Could somebody please transcribe to me what Josh say in minute 7:42 to 7:58? I'm not a native speaker. I would thank a lot.

Josh he said..That the greatest defense of Christianity is not all the evidence and everything else ,no.It's objectively sharing the true Gospel of Jesus Christ and calling for a personal decision, is the greatest defense of Christianity. Have a nice day/night.

Brought him to truth. Simple as.

[@MrLonnie800]

Sometimes its like God is talking through this man making sure he uses his name in a great light. Why else would God allow him to recite in such magnitude to over thousands of people?

[@enki354]

Why does God need a mouthpiece? Can't "He" just come down from Heaven and tell everybody what "He" expects from us? If God does this there would not be any ambiguity as to what denomination of Christianity is true. There Are so many of them!

Firend you can put your hopes in a person that will shake down your hopes, ateishm dosent have strong base for it deductions, but cristianaty does. Do not argue whit the thruth it will hurt you more, i now better tan anyone. God is real, jesus is real, cristian are Heroes who are daing for there faith, so why on earth will you dont belive? Much argeological evidence is proving it and internal in te bible. Remember that death is only the beginig. Jesus can be your saivior from hell.

I do not believe that McDowell actually believes what he is saying.

[@Zinner222]

Candice Arleberus. Since your so Enlightened it amazes me how you have nothing better to do than watch his programs. Your trapped in darkness and have become fearful of the light

[@enki354]

Prove it!

[@Justas399]

I don’t believe what you are saying.

[@supernuts060]

So i dont believe in god cause I have a "moral problem"?? that is very a ignorant thing to say.. Since when do religious beliefs determine the quality of a person?? This is so out of touch with reality.

[@nickjeter6768]

That's not what he's saying. He's saying people reject God because they don't like his morals, not for honest intellectual reasons.

[@supernuts060]

Well then he is a wrong idiot

[@ambassador_in_training]

Do you want to say that you don't have a problem with accepting God's existence and moral standards? I simply want to understand where you are coming from.

Well, thank goodness this atheist's only objection was on moral grounds. Those, unlike the intellectual ones, can be dismissed, can't they Mr. McDowell. Only after you spent 30 minutes explaining the nature or hell (which is 30 minutes spent validating his moral objections to the character of God as the author of hell) did you manage to convince him...out of fear. You didn't make an intellectual case, and you didn't make a moral case. You intimidated him all the way to Christ. Congratulations.

[@Zinner222]

meganoman13 The word intellectual is used by everyone to try to justify themselves. Clearly your not a person of reason if that is what your reasoning is.

[@enki354]

I disagree

[@enki354]

I couldn't agree with you more!

[@michaelcarper2185]

You're not listening. McDowell confronted the young man right where he was at.
