I’m not kidding when you gave a definition of religion being “people getting stuck where God used to be” and then explained that more, you blew my mind. I legit got chills. I’ve never heard that before but it makes so much sense.

[@aliyaturney5431]

Amen Natalia. Honestly we need more people on social media to do what she’s doing rn. It’s so refreshing to see God working through people. And her testimony is so amazing that you know it’s God who really turned it all around for her and for many others. Truly amazing.

[@maxinelohlah]

I’ve been watching your videos for so long and have stayed around. Your first video you made about Christ inspired me to get back with God it took time but God completely changed my life and strengthens me for the better. Your channel is such an anxiety reliever please never stop what your doing it’s amazing. God bless🤍

[@amberbeach2656]

This is so amazing 🤍 So proud of you!

[@ehizz]

Amazing God is really using Natalia!! Praise the Lord ❤

[@Mari-il4bw]

I needed to hear all this. I was baptized when I was 17 because I let god into my heart and I felt him and knew him in an intimate way and I’ve strayed so far from that. In the last 2 to 3 years I’ve even began to think maybe god is not real and what I believed in so strongly is false but deep down I know that’s not right because when god touches you you’re never lost again. Thanks.

[@lollalofi3933]

I know that you wrote this almost as year ago, but In the beginning of my Journey with father, father said to me that I should write my testemony. In case I would doubt or lose my relationship with him. Maybe it helps with you too! ❤

[@judithzoe204]

This was an amazing video. I’m a Christian and I even learned something from this video. The way you described the old law and the new covenant was really interesting and I haven’t heard it explained quite like that before. Thank you so much for your boldness in speaking about Christ! I know it can be hard

[@ramblinalirose]

I swear these new videos are happening at such a pivotal point in my life. I'm here for it with an open heart and mind.

[@katienolan9266]

Have zero interest in God, but NT I am so genuinely so delighted for you that you now feel like you can use KZbin as a space where you can inspire and show your true self and passion, as opposed to requiring the income and so, being constrained. Loved this video, very inspiring.. who knows, maybe I too will be able to experience God some day? Keep doing you 💞❤️

[@aevisia]

I found on my own spiritual journey (non-religious) that God shows up when you start to desire a relationship and having a genuine curiosity. The true nature of God (from my own experience) doesn't force itself on people. Religion really distorts a lot when it comes to having a relationship with God. When you feel ready to experience God, it's really as simple as just being open with your intent and having a curiosity for it. :) Wishing you all the best on your journey. ♥

[@julesburnside1794]

Natalia, I’ve been watching you for a few years now. I finally around November 2nd started getting clean, am also finally 79 days clean from self-harm. Yesterday was also my 111 days sober time (2/21/23) I have been soul searching for a long time and have finally been slowly getting back on track with my physical well being and my mental well being and finding spirituality in my life. This video was just something I saw and thought I’d watch for some insight and it definitely has opened my mind up even more. Thank you for showing me that I’m being looked over and I hope I can open up even more to the ideas of spirituality and god. Thank you💛

[@BlueOstinato]

I backsliding after some time in church (lot of politics unfortunately) but have reestablished my relationship with God, am deep into the Word every day and going to a nice new church. Your videos have been a nice encouragement along the way. Thank you for these.

[@lame_alex]

I know how late I am, but if you see this at all, know that this really helped me. You have done so much for me, even when I was a kid I was obsessed with your zodiac videos. You have brought me back to God and the reason why I became a Christian in the first place. I love you so much. Thank you for helping me, you deserve everything

[@LauraMSandu]

This makes so much sense!!! You really opened a new perspective for me and now I am more open to have a relationship with God.

[@Jv9569]

Your breakdown of man turning Godly encounters into rituals was solid. It's like how God gave men the sabbath, and then man turned it into their own legalistic ritual. God bless.

I was raised Christian…. became passionate however over time I lost it. A few months ago I became curious about the spirit world and began working on relationship with the spirit (instead of following a religion). Here to support you Natalia 💕🙌

[@MrTripfinder]

Omg, finally someone said it. Deep in my heart I had so many question about 10 commandments and I knew there is something to it, same with going to church, I only asked why why why why, I want to know why. I don't like word religion, sounds like cult to me, and finally God gave me an answer thru you, I felt it but couldn't understand. Thank You 💕

[@everlies.6762]

I first got into your channel because of the zodiac videos you did, I got into this because my friend had and I was inspired. Then that same friend ended up going towards God, once again I was inspired by her. I am still going strong with my faith and I’m so happy to see that you have made a change for the better. Just a message to remember is: everyone around you has your influence in some way

[@blamelyss]

So crazy because your last video about God I actually commented about how there is a difference between relationship vs religion. I really appreciate you for being so open to share your beliefs and express who you are now in Christ.

[@Michecam333]

Wow this was so helpful and something I needed to watch. I thought I was the only one who felt a real connection with god & Jesus without having to be part of any religious group, church and etc. Relationship with god is key. Thank you for making this.

Natalia Taylor is the kind of influencer that I want to follow. And as a fan, follower, or whatever you call it, what she does makes me proud that I am supporting her. She is transparent about her ups and downs, her mistakes, and her weaknesses, and she uses that to open our eyes. You can see her grow and learn from that setback. And still, so relatable.

[@JenniferRosaie]

I’ve been watching your videos from the beginning. I grew up Christian, left for years and encountered Him while manifesting a few years ago. I feel like we’ve been on a very similar journey and love seeing you post these videos

[@prettybird8942]

Natalia, your insights on having a relationship with God really resonates with me. Thank you so much for sharing. I too believe in the spirit of God and feel very fortunate that I do have a personal relationship as it really is meaningful and fulfilling. These are the words I live by -- In the happy moments "Praise GOD" / In the difficult moments "Seek GOD" / In the quiet moments "Worship GOD" / In every moment "Thank GOD""

[@LobbyBill]

If this is going to be regular content from you I suggest doing a video explaining conviction vs condemnation. When I was a new Christian I was so confused about convictions and felt bad when I knew people didn't do things like celebrate Halloween, or drink wine, and so on but I still did. When I read Romans it made a lot more sense why we all have different convictions. I think that it would be interesting to hear your take on that. 🙂

[@sierrarosie]

im not religious but now I want a video about this too so I can understand as an “outsider” edit: ok I hadn’t watched the video yet but I guess I’ll also just disclaim that I don’t have a relationship with god either

[@Dannii06]

I agree, I mean I like a glass of wine and to chill in front of the TV but you can feel bad mentioning it in case others think ill of you for doing it! I’m still building my relationship and working at it and I don’t know everything but sometime feel like I’m on eggshells 😕

That's crazy, Natalia. I was just thinking about this exact concept. ''How can I keep/strengthen a relationship with god without getting sucked up in relegious stuff that I don't really want?'' Then I was thinking what KZbinrs do I know that have faith, but aren't dogmatic? Then you came to my mind and the first video is exactly this.

[@NickiCarnley]

Thank you for sharing your story and how you’re growing. I’m going through something similar in my life. I’ve been a Christian since I was 8 and seeing your journey is inspiring me to pursue God more. May God bless you and your husband and please keep making videos like this. Having a relationship with Jesus is so much better than religion!

Hey Nat! Been following you for a bit and I came back to see these amazing things like you getting married and all. Proud of you taking this bold step! It will come with condemnation but I hope your convictions about Jesus will run deeper than all the attacks. I love you and go hard for the kingdom! x

[@RiaMagined]

It’s been a while since I’ve watch one of your videos and this one caught my attention. I always felt as though I was never a Christian type of person. As a child I was brought into the church and was taught about God. As a kid I naturally walked in his spirit without thinking too much about it, it was just apart of who I was. Throughout my life I got baptized twice. When it comes to God I always say I’m not a Christian but I have a relationship with Him. Sometimes I feel bad for saying that or feeling that way. For me it’s like I never gravitated towards the Christian life. I’m more a spiritual person, I believe in or open minded to so much. I always found myself struggling with the commandments, statues and ordinances because I guess I was thinking it of it as STRICT rules and regulations that my damaged flesh didn’t want to follow or was intimidated by. Not only that but I guess I was unknowingly going about it from a religious standpoint. And being a lone wolf resonates and the words “you could’ve been dead”. LITERALLY today or the day before I was thinking about how I could’ve or should’ve been dead and yet I’m still here through the grace of God. Overall, I’m just trying to strengthen and rebuild my relationship with Him. So much trauma from mental, emotional, sexual, physical and verbal abuse took me from Him. But I’ve been finding my way back and man has he been good to me. Things aren’t perfect but they’re so much better than before and I’m grateful for it.❤ Really loved this video it made me look at things from a different perspective.

[@lilliedye]

I love this so much. Please keep making these type of godly videos because this really moved me so much. I’m trying to grow my relationship with God and I would love for you to keep making these videos because I loved this so much

[@xFolkmore]

Personally I’ve always told people I’m spiritual, not religious. I believe in God and I have a relationship with God, but I’m not religious. My family raised me Catholic and they are very religious, they specifically strongly believe in going to Church as a way to build your relationship with God and build community. In my opinion, religion and spirituality is actually deeply personal and an individualized experience that’s unique to everyone which is why for myself I don’t find going to Church and “being apart of the community” something that appeals to me. There are also plenty of things that religions as human institutions have done that I just don’t agree with, but that has nothing to do with me wanting to believe in God / having a relationship with God. Thanks for talking about the deference here. I think many people don’t realize there’s a difference!

[@ryleeee4484]

Thank you for this video. I usually never comment on videos, but your testimony started playing when I was away from my computer. Then this one played after, and I think that I needed to hear your experience to know that I am not alone. My family and extended family have attended church my whole life, but I had terrible experiences with people and the environment when I went. I would have panic attacks whenever I attended or even walked into a church. I have a relationship with God, and I'm constantly working on it, but I don't feel the need to go to church because, to me, going to church isn't to work on your relationship with him anymore; it has turned into proving to other people that they are who they claim to be. (I don't know if that made sense)

[@VentiColdbrew_]

😍 keep posting content like this please. I’m 23 and I medically passed away twice this fall. (Flatlined). God told me he brought me back to life and that it was the old me who died in the hospital-the me that all the past trauma happened to. He said now I’m the person I was supposed to be :) So now I get to live a fresh start and plan to wait till marriage to have sex again and am no longer attracted to toxic people❤ God will change your life. I had a podcast, and after I died of sepsis/pneumonia then Covid , I archived a lot of episodes & storytimes bc I didn’t want to condone wild/crazy sinful behavior anymore. I’m proud of who that girl was; I’m just not her anymore

I think my life started as a God encounter. My 2 sisters (I'm a triplet) and we were born 3 months premature. My mom had to have a C section. Our dad baptized us straight away because he thought we were going to die. We were so small that his wedding ring could slip all the way up our leg to our hip. We should have died but God saved us. I was taught by my dad (who is a pastor) that the commandments are a way to live our life to thank God for all he's done God bless Natalia love you and thank you

[@otf.snpr73]

A few weeks ago I chose not to stay away from churches or religions because I felt like it confuses me and every religion has something special in it so I couldn’t choose which one I prefer. I only want to believe in God, work on myself and do things I feel are good to do, so I can improve my relationship with God.

Hi, I wanted to respond to this because I have struggled with the same things as you have mentioned. In the darkest of dark, I asked God if he wanted to show Himself to me if He actually did exist. I was helpless. I want to encourage you to try the same, if you long for a relationship with God.🌿 You are seen in your pain by Him. He knows how you have suffered. Its hard to overcome trauma, but He heals all wounds. Its not easy but its possible through faith! I pray for healing and restoration in your life. And that you may encounter and experience the boldness of His spirit in Jesus name, Amen!

[@AlexzzzAcid]

I'm so happy to be on this new channel shift with you 😊 I will say that by the real definition of religion, Christianity is a religion and the religious aspects of our relationship with God is important! It's sad that "religious" has a huge (exactly as you said) misconception and negative connotation. I only follow Jesus and Biblical truth.. and that is still a religion. I unfortunately have to share the label "Christianity" with a ton of people who don't believe even close to the things I hold to be true, but I still wear the term "Christ follower" proudly!

Hey natalia!! Ive been with you for a long time and im very happy you are doing better and getting closer to God. I really enjoy these videos with you talking about God and giving us a perspective about God. So if you could make more videos about this that would be amazing!

[@baked23q]

Hey NT! I've been following your journey for years! Thanks for being so open. I also wanted to expand on what you were saying and maybe back it up with a few verses from the bible and give my understanding of it all. All God really wants is a relationship with you forever. He wants you to know him deeply and make time for him as you would a beloved parent/best friend/partner/whoever you hold dear and spend time with getting to know continually. He also wants to ensure once you know him and you foster and care for the relationship routinely through reading your bible/praying/etc, he can continue the relationship once your physical body has ceased on earth. He ensured this could happen through sending his one and only Son, Jesus to take the burden of all our wrongdoings as long as we believe that he did this for us and ask for forgiveness. The 10 Commandments were in the Old Testament of the Bible for the people to follow so that the separation could be bridged between God and his followers that was originally caused because of sin. You are right in saying that the 10 Commandments are no longer required to be followed for us to have a relationship with God or for the separation to be bridged as long as you believe that Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice and died for your sins. John 14:6 says "Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." If you do have relationship with God and believe he sent his son to die for your sins, because of this relationship, belief and understanding of this ultimate sacrifice to save his creation, you will want to follow the 10 Commandments and try not to do the wrong thing to the very best of your ability (I could go into the 10 Commandments and what they mean and how commandment 4 was taken a bit too far and Jesus reeled it back but I'd have to break down each one and this would be too long!). As we are born into a sinful world, it is impossible for us not to sin and therefore we may actually go against the 10 Commandments and indeed sin. The difference now compared to in the Old Testament, is that if we ask for forgiveness for those wrongdoings, we can be saved through Jesus' sacrifice in suffering and dying for our relationship to be repaired with God. Ephesians 2:8-9 says "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." God also gave us the free will to decide if we want to believe that he is the creator and that he sent Jesus to die for us to have an eternal relationship with him. The bible also doesn't say we must go to church to have a relationship with God. There are many instances where people have been hurt by the church or the people of the church, cannot get to church because of shift-work and many other reasons. If you do go to church though, it has the potential to be encouraging just as every community has the potential to be when likeminded people regularly meet. In saying that, it also has the potential to be dangerous when Jesus is not at the centre of everything that church or community does. In Colossians 1:18 it says, "He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything." I hope this makes sense! I am not usually one to comment on videos but I felt compelled to maybe explain how I understand it with supporting verses from the bible. I am not an expert and I also don't pray or read my bible as much as I should so please know I am definitely not trying to be up on a high horse preaching that I do all of these things. If anything, writing this comment has made me realise how much more time I should be putting into the relationship between myself and God. I also wanted to ask how you know that the messages from God are for people watching your videos and not for you? Sending love!

I used to be a witch/new ager and had an encounter with God nearly two years ago(March 22,2021) I was a deeply depressed/suicidal and I literally heard his voice say “I have work for you to do.” I never felt more loved or seen and said I’ll do whatever I have to to stay in your presence Lord and accepted Jesus, threw away all my witchcraft stuff/renounced it, quit sex work, and it’s been night and day. I’m still figuring stuff out but I’m so eager to share my testimony. I want to eventually film it and share it on here because it’s a lot.. lol For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 1 Timothy 2:5

Thank you for this video, Natalia. I’m all for the new content that you want to make. And I’ve never felt like you were pushing your faith on anybody. You’ve always been clear about that. And you’ve always been very loving and open and non-judgmental when talking about your faith. And I really appreciate it, because unfortunately there are a lot of Christians influencers and just Christians in regular life who are very judgmental and hateful. I’m a Christian myself and other Christians like that have tried to tell me I don’t really know Jesus simply because I disagree with them or I’m just not the same as they are. So hearing you talk about faith and a real relationship with Jesus is very soothing and helpful for me and I really appreciate it. I’m excited for more of your content and I wish you all the best.

[@ceciliaoffiong3241]

could you make a video sharing your testimony and explain when you started to have a relationship with God?

[@skaio.5279]

She already has 2 videos on that, "why i went from atheist to christian" and "I was a Drug Addict. (the truth about everything)"

So crazy. My mom was just showing me pictures of these beautiful full rainbows (a complete half circle, just like the photo you show in this video) that were taken in the city I live in just a couple days ago (Huntington Beach, CA). I’ve also met you before Natalia at Whole Foods in HB when you lived here! Of all the messages in this video, when I saw the rainbow I got chills. It’s funny because it’s so random too! Thank you! 🙏🥰🌈

[@NataliaTaylor]

I’ll be in HB next week DM me on IG if you want to meet up

Love this video! Great explanations and using the Bible as evidence. I don't identify as religious or a follower of God either but rather that there is a higher power. I always try to learn others perspective on religion. Ty for sharing🖤

This is so refreshing to hear Natalia. Thank you ❤️

Awesome video, and so true that church is not exclusive with having a relationship with God. I left religion many years ago and never looked back. I don't consider myself Christian or identify with any religion anymore. The religious actually left me with a lot of religious trauma I'm still working to heal from. It was only when I left the church that I started to get in tune with my spirit and discover God's true nature. I could never go back to a life under religion. We're all on our own journey, religious or non-religious and when it comes to our path to connecting with God, one size does not fit all. Under religion I felt Christians really tried to hammer into people that there's only one way to do things, and they combine that with a whole lot of fear mongering and I just don't think that's accurate at all to God's true nature, nor is a lot of the Bible. There are many different paths to discovering and having a relationship with God. We just gotta find the way that works best for us in our own spiritual journey.

Natalia, I'm of a different faith, but I found your topic very insightful. I live my religion everyday, and I have an open connection with my higher power. (Great Spirit, Creator, it has many names.) So your video really resonated with me. I agree with you: Religion should not feel like a jail sentence. When my dad was dying, I would take him to church (he was a Roman Catholic.) One of the times I was there, I had a Christ encounter. He told me, "We're cool. You are on a good path." It felt really good, like an affirmation that I'm on the right Path for me. I think we are going to see more and more people leave the church in favor of a more personal way of worship. So, even though I'm of a different faith, I'm going to stick around, because I like you. I loved your videos from before, but I like YOU. If there comes a time when your videos don't resonate with me or become offensive to me (I doubt that will happen,) then I will move on. That's life! Blessings.

It’s so great to see this side of you! It was always shining through but it’s so great to see you free. I am not religious either but I believe in god/universal love, god is love, we are all connected. The world needs people like you to spread joy and love like this. Youth needs this. Using this platform for such good is such a hopeful sign to see in the world these days. Thank you.

[@tprevite]

You mentioned in one of your videos about explaining the Holy Trinity. I will go through your chanell to see if you've done it, but if not, I would love to see that discussed.
