Stuart & Cliffe Knechtle | Are Atheists Swimming In The Christian Pond? | Give Me An Answer

[@laszayar]

Went to church for my first time yesterday. I find it hard to open myself to other Christians as I've been mocked and excluded (most of it by my own will) from people. I got into this circle of loneliness just me and God. But realizing there's some good christians out there has made me think of a lot... God bless you, and I hope you find solace like I did yesterday!

[@X2x3x4]

You got this. John 15:18 😢

[@gingercake0907]

If Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior you will never be alone. If you walk with God you will not be lonely. Jesus said “ and lo I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20. Join a ministry in the church you attend. Join the Bible study and Church school, become active and reach out. You will not be lonely. In order to make a friend, you must first show yourself to be friendly. Proverbs 18:24a

That’s exactly why I tell people it’s such a cop out excuse to not believe in Christ because of people… the Bible explicitly and clearly keeps on telling us in multiple ways that we, as humans, all stink. We suck, we sin, we betray. Never trust anyone or yourself fully because we always mess up one way or another. The guy was cornered in the debate, had nothing else to say, and had to result in the ole “well what about crusades and the conquistadors?!?”. By that logic, I can point to Stalin murdering and enslaving millions and say “this is why I hate atheists”. Doesn’t that sound absurd?? When people categorize Christian’s off of those events, it isn’t a good argument because in that case, you’re no worse than the racists who say “all whites are like this” and “all blacks do this”. He needs to grow up.

13:24 When people ask if God died, they often think death means ceasing to exist. But biblically, death is the separation of the spirit from the body-not the end of consciousness (Luke 23:46, John 19:30). When Jesus died, His body died, but He remained alive as God and even raised Himself (John 2:19-22). Death does not end existence; even the rich man and Lazarus were conscious after death (Luke 16:19-31). Forget about Ecclesiastes 9:5, that reflects human perspective, not doctrine. Jesus’ divinity was never compromised.

[@ForgetU-nz5yw]

Yea: If I see someone get murdered in front of me; or see someone be abused, I don't stop and think: Society says this is wrong and I should feel bad, so then I feel bad. No without even thinking; and in an instant, I'll feel horrible and know that's not right. And I don't remember anything that society told me about feeling bad when I see a starving person out in the rain... I just feel bad; why? Because I know what it's like to be starving in the rain? I've never had to starve, nor was I out in the rain. So why do I feel bad?

Save for a few select people, the majority of humans need relationships and community throughout their lives. That is part of the purpose of my faith as a christian. To know and to be known by my Creator. Worship is much more than a service on Sunday, it’s about dedicating your life to following God’s commands, which Christ said all culminated into these two things: To love God and to love people. From the very beginning of the Bible, we see God promising to restore the broken relationship that developed after the fall of humanity, (Genesis 3:15). So, for me it’s a religion focused on restoring the relationship between humanity and God.

[@MG-ot2yr]

Conscience isn't innate, it starts to develop around age 3 or 4 when young children become old enough to understand right and wrong behavior from their parents. So conscience requires knowledge of a set of values that the individual processes an internal response, a self assessment of their behavior based on the rules they've been taught. It doesn't just exist by itself.

I disagree with Stuart on the divine nature dying. Jesus’ human nature died on the cross, not the divine. His spirit was separated from his body for three days and death is known as separation from body and spirit. For reference: Luke 8:55

[@Trexbor17]

I respectfully disagree with this way of thinking, because it would mean that the only thing human about us is the body. So once our spirit is separated from our body, the only conclusion we can get following this logic is that we're divine. We're also god and human, and obviously that's not the case. Even in spirit we're still human.

[@christianjacobs1535]

@ I understand your point. But him dying according to the human nature is the consensus Christian belief. Read Luke 8 for reference of separation of body and spirit. The second person in the Trinity (God) died in the flesh, the spirit did not die. And our spirit is not eternal like Gods.

[@Trexbor17]

@christianjacobs1535 Ecclesiastes 12:7 Says "the spirit shall return unto God who gave it" And in Ecclesiates 3 it mentions that both humans and animals have spirit. Our spirit is eternal, it does not die, because it is not a part of who we are wholly, rather it is life, breath. Jesus limited himself, became like us, so he too had body, soul and spirit. His body physically dies, his soul, along with his spirit after it leaves him, descends to hades to take the keys of hades and death, and his spirit left. John 19:30 says he "gave up his spirit". Gave up, as in he didn't have the spirit anymore, it went back to God the father. Then in 1 Peter 3 it says:" For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit. After being made alive, he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits- to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built." He was made alive again, his spirit given back, whilst in Hades, proclaiming to those imprisoned spirits before resurrecting.

Israel is God's chosen people, He chose them to be the light of world for God's light to show to the whole world. He does not love them more, he found righteous people who were willing to be used by him in the nation of Israel.

The chapter ur even referring to is titled "the sin of judah" this chapter is a direct parallel to what we see in modern day America. Enlighten urself by reading the full book in context

'Proverbs 1:23. Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.' 'Proverbs 2:6-14. For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. 7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. 8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints. 9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path. 10 *When wisdom entereth into thine heart*, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul; 11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: 12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things; 13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; 14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;..." 'Proverbs 3:5. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and *lean not unto thine own understanding.'* 'Proverbs 17:9. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?' 'Proverbs 17:14: Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.' wicked or also diseased.

The word "Muhammad" only appears (I believe) 4 times in the Quran. If you want to know about Muhammad, you must look in the Sahih Hadith collections and in the biographies of the prophet.

[@Sergedb74]

The coins we find from the time of Muhammad represent Jesus Christ. The blessed One, which means Muhammad, was Jesus. Muslims made up a story about a Muhammed but in reality, the Qur'an is a Christian twisted gospel.

Don’t soon forget the native tribes in North America were not living in absolute peace before the Spanish arrived in America. They were fighting and killing each other just the same.

[@mathewdumay4079]

I’m having issues with the assertion that “God died…” Jesus is truly human and truly God. Vera Homo/Vera Dei; however, it’s metaphysically impossible for God to “die.” So, I would say that the human flesh of Jesus Christ was dead; however, in his divinity he was not. For if we say that Jesus was and is truly God, then it would be incoherent to say that God “dies.” The Christian has to slice that piece of the pie a different way. Jesus maintains a human nature insofar as he was the divine logos inhabiting a human body. He never ceased to be God, just assumed humanity via the flesh. He maintains his humanity, albeit in a glorified state (I.e., incorruptible, imperishable, etc.)

The red haired guy got demolished in this debate, objectively speaking. *We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, (2 Corinthians 10:5, ESV)*

[@SadSinner79]

@@parkplaceproperties4818 2 Corinthians 10:5 refers to proud thoughts that corrupt your judgement. Proverbs 15:14 The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly. It is important to understand more knowledge, though think critically and understand what you see. This is the whole purpose of the discussion of the athiests, otherwise he would remain closed minded and not talk about God.

Idk in América but in my country Portugal Atlantica slave trade started with economic reasons not financial, more, the idea oc rying slavery with racism started in 18th century when people borned having slaves and associated with race, but as many says church indulged slavery the truth is no. Many Jesuits in Amarican Brasil saw some nobles making natives slaves some even converted to christinanism, the jesuits pleeded, thoses nobles to not do that, some listened others didnt what happeened then Jesuits wrote, notes to the Pope, and the Pope theatened them with excomungation, in Brasil as many who dont know are mixed people, because throught christianity in comon many Africans natives and europeans married and made families since the start and beyond, and there is how most Brasilians and portuguese arent raccists just some lesser factions mutch less suport but does alot harm.

1:24 Cliffe confuses moral outrage with objective morality. We can still feel moral outrage and act on that feeling even if morality is just subjective. Outrage is just a feeling.

[@SanctifiedDaily]

That's his point, that we all have a similar inate drive to not like it when others get ripped off. Cliffe would argue that this comes from our God given conscience.

[@SanctifiedDaily]

He explains this more at 5:00, hope this helps 🙏

[@spooky6902]

@SanctifiedDaily he says God is the best explanation, but he gives no reason why. He uses this feeling as evidence for god even though we could still have the same feelings if there was no god.

[@autisticphaglosophy7128]

@@spooky6902 He never claims moral realism is ontologically grounded in feelings just that we have epistemic justification for it through our innate sense of justice no different than we would rely on other sensory experience to justify objective reality.

[@spooky6902]

@autisticphaglosophy7128 but how does he tell the difference between it being JUST a feeling and actually corresponding with an objective morality?

[@panachebosspana2386]

I'm just reading his book called "The God Delusion", that book is misleading and it contradicts what he just said a couple of weeks ago. A typical example of "you can't be consistent in living out atheism".. What a hypocrite 😂🚮.

[@Sergedb74]

Exactly right. After calling God all names in the book and making lots of money from selling his book, he now says that he wants to live in an Anglo-Christian society. What an embarrassment!
