Who am I? || David Bowden || Spoken Word

[@SpokenGospel]

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE WORD "CREATED" AT 3:55 IS NOT MEANT TO CONVEY THAT JESUS WAS CREATED. Jesus has eternally existed in the trinity alongside the Father and the Spirit. We do not endorse any view of Jesus that suggests he was made or had a beginning. To learn more about who Jesus is we invite you to watch our book introduction videos which show Jesus in every book of the Bible: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHqtc5t7dq6toJY

Great production and great poem, thank you. I appreciate the clarification but would you consider removing the video or editing it? Not everyone will read your note. Also, not sure if it was just me but there is a lot of white noise in the in the 1st half of the video which makes your voice not come through clearly, just a side note :).

Contrary to everyone else in the comments, I was drifting off until you started talking about God, then I started crying.

Hi. This is a work of art and in many ways very compelling for listeners/viewers. I only have one point that I would like to raise is that in 3:56, you used the word ‘created’ for Jesus. I think that Elohim (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) exist and perhaps that word ‘created’ may not be accurate here. Maybe ‘planned’ or ‘assigned’ would be more accurate.

[@imadiyi3589]

If there is no God, then what I say about myself is true subjectively. You can call me something from your subjective view and claim to be true. If there is no God everything is up for interpretation, making everything realitive. I can't live that way. There is a way to love. Nature is prone to disorder and yet we are beautifuly made, and so is our universe. I believe in a morality based on God, I believe in the Uncaused caused. I believe in Jesus through historical evidence and I have seen things I can not understand. Yeah, what do you believe?

[@zalphero618]

I believe that good god from the bible will give me an option to erase myself from existence after i die rather than sending me to hell because i haven't done anything wrong except not believe in his existence.

[@SpokenGospel]

Thank you for your message. The Spoken Gospel team will be praying for you. You are not alone in feeling this. I wrote a poem to address this feeling. Hope it can help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGmudGufgM6Ulbs I also thought I would share a little bit about what it means to be saved. It doesn't mean being perfect but placing your trust in Jesus who is perfect. What is below may seem obvious, but I hope it helps. We have all done wrong things that separate us from God and earn death for us. But Jesus, who is God in the flesh, took the death our sins earned on the cross so that we could escape the punishment our wrong deeds deserve. Jesus also rose from the dead to defeat death for us and bring us near to God. So what must you do? The Bible says, if you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is God," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9). You must believe. Here is a larger explanation of what it means to put your trust, or belief, in Jesus from our friends at the Gospel Coalition: "How can we be saved? Only by faith in Jesus Christ and in his substitutionary atoning death on the cross; so even though we are guilty of having disobeyed God and are still inclined to all evil, nevertheless, God, without any merit of our own but only by pure grace, imputes to us the perfect righteousness of Christ when we repent and believe in him." Here is a short simple video explaining more about what that means: kzbin.info/www/bejne/goGxfGB_ZtN2bc0 Put your trust in Jesus' death and resurrection. Believe in your heart that Jesus is God in the flesh. Say a prayer to God in your own words telling him all of this. And then, find a local church and tell them you've just put your faith in Jesus. Here is one website you can use to find a trustworthy local church in your area: www.acts29.com/find-churches/ Let us know if you have made this step of faith. We want to continue to pray for you.

[@claudiapeacock7662]

[@brandonbybee7984]

Great video, but Jesus was NOT created, Jesus created. Go read John 1:1-3 and 14 again please.

[@nanacantu4988]

love the video but I am left confused by what you said that "God became like us" "because he loved us then you named Him "Jesus". (God and Jesus are two separate persons). At the beginning it says "Jesus is the son of God" "God the father" which is true but all falls apart when the you say God became flesh to save us. The scriptures says Jesus is the son of God and that God sent Him to "seek and to save that which was lost" Even Jesus says John 6:38 "For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of Him who sent me". Jesus did not come of his own but his father, the creator, God sent him. I am left confused by your words spoken on the video.

[@afowler424]

lupe cantu you’re confused because God and Jesus are actually part of one God. They’re separate in a way but they’re also the same. It’s like a bath tub. For a bathtub to you have three parts: the faucet, the bowl, and the drain. They’re all different parts but they make up the same machine. Jesus speaks about it in the Bible ““Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14:10-11‬ ‭KJV‬‬ He says that he and the father are one. Yes the father sent him, but they’re also a part of each other because they’re connected which is why the video says God became like us because Jesus is God. The name we use is the holy trinity. God the father, God the son, and God the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is also a part of God and a part of Jesus. Jesus sent him to us as an instructor and a comforter. “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14:16-18‬ ‭KJV‬‬ He says it himself “I” will come to you. I know it can be a bit confusing, but I hope this helps. The holy trinity is one of those things that is hard to understand, and it doesn’t help that we’re all reading a translated version from the original Greek text. Some of the writings message doesn’t come across as well because of language barriers. It’s why we have to ask God/the spirit for an interpretation from him.

[@suzannemichelle9444]

"The Incarnation, which is for traditional Christianity synonymous with the historical birth and earthly life of Christ, is for mystics of a certain type, not only this but also a perpetual Cosmic and personal process. It is an everlasting bringing forth, in the universe and also in the individual ascending soul, of the divine and perfect Life, the pure character of God, of which the one historical life dramatized the essential constituents. Hence the soul, like the physical embryo, resumes in its upward progress the spiritual life-history of the race. "The one secret, the greatest of all," says Patmore, is "the doctrine of the Incarnation, regarded not as an historical event which occurred two thousand years ago, but as an event which is renewed in the body of every one who is in the way to the fulfilment of his original destiny." Evelyn Underhill, Mysticism Christ, the anointed one. From God, the source of our being. The absolute. The blueprint for the divine. The cosmic consciousness. Your unfolding of light.

[@Fuar11]

There is no "who am I?" David said it himself. There is no SELF. We are made of everything else. Everybody else. It's true that we won't find our identity within ourselves. Because it doesn't exist. Because it's not who you are. It's who WE are. I don't care who you believe in religiously. Because they're all the same in the end.

[@ExplorationFreedom]

This was inspiring, but there should be one correction. At about 3:55 you mention that the Father created Jesus. This is not so. Jesus is God in the flesh, but not created. The belief that Jesus was created is called Arianism and is not orthodox. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities-all things have been created through Him and for Him. 17 He is before all things, and in Him all things [z]hold together. 18 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. 19 For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven - Colossians 1:15-20 Jesus existed before the world began!!! The Deity of Jesus Christ 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 [a]He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. 5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not [b]comprehend it - John 1:1-5 Scripture references from Bible Gateway

[@SpokenGospel]

We absolutely agree with everything you have said here. The "creation" language was completely incidental of the poetic imagery and structure of that line. We stand fully behind the eternal existence of the Son and fully against any form of Arianism. In retrospect, this line should definitely be changed as its language could be confusing. We will pin a comment to the top of this video explaining that distinction. Thank you so much for flagging this and for doing it kindly and correctly.

[@ExplorationFreedom]

@@SpokenGospel Thank you for taking the constructive criticism kindly!

You say that, yet forget that Buddha is still in the grave; Jesus is Risen. Buddha is a man, Jesus is the son of God. That's the difference
