I think when Joe was talking about a denial of Christianity he said earlier on in the show he watched Muslim scholars debate about things so I think Joe is drawing a connection between the Muslim Scholars denying Jesus death and resurrection Could we see a Muslim scholar on the JRE And maybe a debate between the two religions it would be monumental
Wes Huff, goes on Joe Rogan's podcast at the age of 33....a scholar(Rabbi) of the Biblical(Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic)Text. Jesus stands before Pontius Pilate at the age of 33....as the WORD of God. God’s Hand in plain SIGHT.....!!
I took my wife, and new baby out to eat for Christmas this evening. I've seen Jesus working EVERYWHERE I've turned, today! It's been amazing seeing the things that God is doing in the lives of people from all walks of life. God's not dead, he's prepping us for greatness. Lines are drawn, people are responding, and it's not all negative, like they want to make us think it is. Rejoice, Fam! Christ is King. Help is coming.
Did anyone else notice that Joe didn't even use his go-to lines about you can't trust the bible because it's like a game of telephone? I'm guessing it's because he said that he had been listening to hours of Wes in preparation for the podcast. That, to me, is huge.
@@garypowell6190 I hope he keeps digging and sees the truth of it all. If you genuinely look at Christianity with an open mind you find that the answers are there. Rogans already seeing it when he talks about the universe being the bigger miracle and harder to believe than Jesus making wine.
The wind of that argument got deflated when Wes told him about the Dead Sea scroll version of Isaiah that was still the same after being copied for a thousand years down to the version that all our modern bibles is based on - we have that much more ancient text that reveals this fidelity
Such an answer to prayer! I have been listening to Joe Rogan and Duncan Trussel since their first episodes like 15 years ago and it’s been so amazing to see God seek them out in his perfect timing!
Joe is merely trying to be respectful to the millions of people who are religious. He’s not looking for a theological debate. In addition, he truly believes their is something more out there.
Potentially, billions of Christians aren't on the narrow path, and he isn't even a Christian yet. Saying he's on the narrow path is a little exaggerated, but he is definitely going in the right direction! ❤
Joe's is looking for an almost pure example to welcome him back. Most people don't surrender to Christ in the way that is needed, that is why the world is the way it is at this current time. We have to embody the teachings of christ, especially after we are saved. So many sick people in this world, its time for us to fully embody his teachings. He said anything I can do, so can you in time, as I have returned to the father. We are missing the mark, origin of sin is Latin it mains to miss the mark. The spiritual heart is the mark we have to hit, and we will when we surrender our will to GOD's, its quite simple. Service is the greatest worship we can give to Jesus.
Wes is an educated ,literate scholar . We must remember it is the Holy Spirit that reveals christ to an individual. The seeds of faith are being watered, but only God can bring the harvest .
The biggest thing that always got me is how the disciples to their death stood by everything that they seen witnessed and experienced that Jesus is the son of the living God they could have so easily been like it was just a joke please don't but they didn't they did not waver they went through all the torture abuse and death. I don't know anybody that has died to cover a lie? Do you? I wish he would have brought this up to joe
@OnMyDoly There is no scholarly consensus on most elements of Jesus' life as described in the Bible. There is no physical evidence of Jesus' life and death that can be scientifically verified. The historicity of Jesus' miracles and resurrection is considered a matter of faith. There's is about as much proof that Jesus exist as there is Bigfoot Santa Claus the Easter Bunny Loch Ness monster leprechauns werewolves vampires a chupacabra🤣
And its all enlightening and beautiful and then right before Joe sobers up Jesus just turns around and says "OH and ENOUGH WITH THE DRUGS ALREADY! SHEESH!" and walks off into the sunset
I would love to see Lee Strobel or J Warner Wallace on JRE, unless that's already happened. Those guys have unique backgrounds as atheists turned Christian. I would like to see Joe's reaction. And I'm with you Ruslan, I believe Joe is there, right at the edge of a deep blue sea of Truth. Been "watching" Joe Rogan along with other believers for the past 2 yrs. I'm a simple wretch but a lot of what Joe says is what I thought and arguments I had as well. It was Jesus revealing Himself to me 4 yrs ago this past Christmas day that sealed the deal. No one person could convince me of God. I had to be broken. God bless all of you 🙏
Let's go Joe!!! Hallelujah!!! It's only a matter of time til we welcome Joe Rogan into the Kingdom as a brother In Christ!!!! Thank you Jesus!!! 👑✝️🙏🏽🙌🏽
Not sure if Ruslan corrects himself at some point, but when talking about the crucifixion, Rus said the way the soldiers confirmed Jesus had died was by piercing his lungs and blood came out. To clarify, it wasn’t blood that came out, it was water. Not being a jerk, just clarifying for the sake of the audience. I know Rus knows this. Likely just misspoke.
Be careful, because Ruslan piggybacks off other podcasts/content creators to get views and fill his pockets. I'm not so sure his intent is pure, and yes God will use him for his glory, but Ruslans content authenticity seems off
Since we're getting technical, it was actually blood AND water - John 19:34 "Yet one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out."
The blood and water is crucial because that is exactly what would be observed from someone asphixiating in that exact position and state of exhaustion. A fluid builds up in the lungs separate from blood, it also confirms Jesus was stabbed through the pleura. Providentially, the water gushing from Christ is the fulfillment of the water being drawn from the Rock by Moses in Exodus, the waters of the Jordan for baptism, etc.
@sidewaysfcs0718 I'd also say the water and blood would be a representation of the cleansing and life-giving work of Jesus Christ, symbolizing the forgiveness of sins through His sacrifice and the renewal of the Spirit that brings eternal life. I think this Is generally the accepted interpretation with most Christians.
Why does water make him holy? Supposedly that's exactly what happens to every single human if you do the same thing in the same spot to us (says medicinal professionals when you google it).
Yeah, even the dark matter tangent wasn't very far off from the big bang/Genesis creation account. They stayed fairly close to the topic and didn't divert too far. Joe didn't even bring up DMT or Elk meat 😂
THIS. Something is happening. I’m preaching at work, I’m grabbing my friends and dragging them to church, I’m a veteran who has been on every pill, and have been to every treatment and I can tell you GOD is moving in this world. I can’t tell how much of a sinner I am. GOD is great.
@@sethswint1396 I've been wondering the same... even within my circles, I'm getting a few more people than I'm used to talking about God. Online though, I'm skeptical that it has more to do with algorithms....because online it's EVERYWHERE...but it's also what I consume heavily.
Ruslan, I just want to say how sorry I am about your niece. I prayed right away for you and your family that the LORD will give you comfort and strength. She is with our LORD and she is better off than us! ❤blessings and grace to you. 😢🥰
God is working through Wes in a powerful way, and his presence is truly a breath of fresh air. In an era where TH-cam is crowded with individuals pretending to be apostles and prophets, often inflating their popularity through artificial means, it's evident that many lack a genuine relationship with the Lord. Now, more than ever, we need authentic believers within the body of Christ. Wes stands out as a sincere brother who guides others to genuinely experience the love and salvation of Jesus, unlike the imposters who lead many astray.
13:09:Not just blood but water. Very important fact. John 19:33-34 But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs. But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came [flowing] out.
I've proved my best friend wrong many times on this. He used to think Jesus was a "conman." Years later, after many arguments, he speaks on Jesus's name with respect. He doesn't call himself a Christian... yet.
Starting to understand that when someone says "folks back then were 'illiterate'" what they are sneaking in is "they are 'illogical'". Illiterate and illogical aren't the same. Anyone can be either one and not the other at the same time.
I mean as far as we're taught most people back then were babbling buffoons who knew almost nothing. They couldn't read, they couldn't write, unless they were of a higher class. At least as far as I'm aware. But we also have no way of knowing how true that is. And most people in 2025 are also not the brightest people but we still sorta know reality. Who knows.
@@dominicwilliams7845 You mean beyond the basic knowledge that literacy was not extremely common across regions until later in our history? Even worse if you didn't speak certain languages, like the reason the Church refused to translate the Bible from Latin so the ones who could read couldn't form their own opinion? How about illogical for believing in something just because someone told you it was real?
@@Swearengen1980 Ok so your saying that the people over several eras were not Biblically literate, and not "generally" literate of a 👉🏾specific era. Does that represent what you are saying accurately? I would imagine you are specifically honing in on biblical literacy because the same "most people" you are referring to are the same people who lived under the idea of "if you don't work, you probably won't eat." This is the same "most people" who most of them got jobs, and professions: farmers and agriculture, hunters, architects and builders, soldiers, etc. All of the above requires logic to perform, even just enough to provide to get by. I'm not saying scribes were widespread. I am saying give the people credit, a lot of people were not as dumb as some folks make them out to be.

Why would you say that? The case for a resurrection is awful -- it's _only_ the Bible's accounts, and that's evidence so weak you wouldn't accept elsewhere (would you believe I resurrected if 4-6 anonymous authors said it happened? Seriously?). So doesn't it feel like this channel's purpose is misleading people? Sure feels that way.
Rogan was slow to endorse Trump but finally came around at the last minute. He will embrace Jesus, he has become more and more open to the idea. Huff is an absolutely brilliant guest, most impressive scholar on Bible and ancient languages in the context of history that i have heard. Encyclopedic memory.
The fact that Christians have to become this much of an expert in cases for some to believe but those same ppl who need critical evidence don’t need it to believe in their gods speaks tremendous volume
Amazing interview. I loved it! There was one thing I was wondering about. Wes said 400 witnesses, but in 1 Cor 15:6 it says 500 witnesses. Was he possibly referring to an older manuscript or was that a mistake?
For has smart as Wes is, as a Catholic, I was pretty shocked at some of the misinformation he gave in regards to Tyndale. Otherwise, I can rejoice that Rogan is having people such as him on his podcast. I was getting pretty sick of listening to him talk about Christianity being inspired by shrooms.
I just want to throw out there, with much respect to Wes Huff, that Paul actually says Jesus was seen by FIVE hundred brethren. He left out a whole nother hundred. 😁 Jesus is alive guys.
Another thing to think about, when talking about the validity of the Gospels, is that there are many specific accounts of miracles that would have been easily debunked at that time if they weren't true. Example: Lazarus, Jairus' daughter, Blind Bartameus, lame man at the gate Beautiful (people knew who they were talking about). These are just from the top of my head but there's prob more.
The gospel of John is a rebuttal against Gnosticism. That's why there's a lot of emphasis on Jesus's bodily resurrection. The whole point of including Thomas's doubt and Jesus's response to him, Jesus eating after his resurrection, all of these was to prove beyond doubt that Jesus rose bodily.
The reason the Lord hasnt come back already is because He's still fighting for people like Joe Rogan. He's giving us time to come to Him before it's too late. I truly believe that.
What a nonsense belief. If a God was interested in belief/worship, he'd show up, provide reasonable evidence, and reasonable people would immediately believe. If a God wanted to save someone, _they would immediately, instantly be saved._ So clearly you cannot possibly believe God wants this, because God is defined as being all-powerful, which would mean the moment God wanted it, it would be done. Instead, God is a self-contradicting idea. It cannot be true. God cannot exist. It's a contradiction between all-good and causing all evil intentionally. He caused all evil intentionally because he knew every result from every way the universe might be, and then chose to create a universe that would lead to evil (evil as Christianity defines it, to be clear). That means God intended that evil. And that's a contradiction. If God did any evil act, he cannot be "all-good", yet God would be responsible for *every* evil act (and all good ones; everything, obviously; that's what the story says: an all-knowing God made everything!). If that doesn't make sense, consider a Perfect Baseball Pitcher. He knows everything has a perfect throwing arm, perfectly strong, etc. _Wherever the ball ends up is that Pitcher's intent, right?_ Because he can literally account for everything (wind, objects thrown to block his baseball, etc). Well an all-knowing God would be just like that: anywhere the universe ends up is God's intent, and so we know God can't exist.
@ Right, and my explanation is why that's a nonsense belief, yeah? An all-knowing, all-powerful god interested in our belief/worship wouldn't have resulted in the reality we find ourselves in. A reality without reasonable evidence of a god.

Yes it says more than 500
Yes 500 is correct
This was good, Thanks
You guys did Joe such an injustice pausing the video after 3: 40 second mark 😂😂
I been saying for over a year now that Joe is close to becoming a Christian 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Rogan was slow to endorse Trump but finally came around at the last minute. He will embrace Jesus, he has become more and more open to the idea. Huff is an absolutely brilliant guest, most impressive scholar on Bible and ancient languages in the context of history that i have heard. Encyclopedic memory.
Yo!! Mel Gibson is on Rogan going deep on Christianity today as well!! Kingdom is moooovinnn
“Cue Candace Owens” was savage
The fact that Christians have to become this much of an expert in cases for some to believe but those same ppl who need critical evidence don’t need it to believe in their gods speaks tremendous volume
Zach cracks me up so much LOL
I believe he is close 🙏
Good take 💯
Good analysis
Amen 🙏.
Amazing interview. I loved it! There was one thing I was wondering about. Wes said 400 witnesses, but in 1 Cor 15:6 it says 500 witnesses. Was he possibly referring to an older manuscript or was that a mistake?
For has smart as Wes is, as a Catholic, I was pretty shocked at some of the misinformation he gave in regards to Tyndale. Otherwise, I can rejoice that Rogan is having people such as him on his podcast. I was getting pretty sick of listening to him talk about Christianity being inspired by shrooms.
Based.
👑✝️🕊✨️
We will see the day Joe Rogan will say he is a Christian and SAVED! lets goooo!!! There is nothing impossible for God!
Joe's ripening up! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yo! Can you interview Timothy Alberino ?
Hallelujah! Im smiling 34 swconda through at your reaction my brother :D
Would love to but am in Nigeria
@8:15 the guy that was getting ready to be harvested wasn’t flogged and hung from a cross.
Hes been peakin!😂😂😂 praise God!!
I feel good about the future
I just want to throw out there, with much respect to Wes Huff, that Paul actually says Jesus was seen by FIVE hundred brethren. He left out a whole nother hundred. 😁 Jesus is alive guys.
Definitely see JRE may not being such a non believer anymore. Hes trying though. Love it.
Joe asking all the right questions
Another thing to think about, when talking about the validity of the Gospels, is that there are many specific accounts of miracles that would have been easily debunked at that time if they weren't true. Example: Lazarus, Jairus' daughter, Blind Bartameus, lame man at the gate Beautiful (people knew who they were talking about). These are just from the top of my head but there's prob more.
is there a reason why he speeds up the clips?
His video is over 4mil views. That's a beautiful thing.
When Jesus side was stabbed water came out not blood idk the significance of it but feel it’s important to not get confused about.
The gospel of John is a rebuttal against Gnosticism. That's why there's a lot of emphasis on Jesus's bodily resurrection. The whole point of including Thomas's doubt and Jesus's response to him, Jesus eating after his resurrection, all of these was to prove beyond doubt that Jesus rose bodily.
Look, the resurrection of Jesus is a matter of faith and nothing more
The Jordan Peterson call was hilarious
It's just so much fun to finally see truth sweetly crush lies, and even liars, into smithereens.
The reason the Lord hasnt come back already is because He's still fighting for people like Joe Rogan. He's giving us time to come to Him before it's too late. I truly believe that.
What a nonsense belief. If a God was interested in belief/worship, he'd show up, provide reasonable evidence, and reasonable people would immediately believe. If a God wanted to save someone, _they would immediately, instantly be saved._ So clearly you cannot possibly believe God wants this, because God is defined as being all-powerful, which would mean the moment God wanted it, it would be done.
Instead, God is a self-contradicting idea. It cannot be true. God cannot exist.
It's a contradiction between all-good and causing all evil intentionally. He caused all evil intentionally because he knew every result from every way the universe might be, and then chose to create a universe that would lead to evil (evil as Christianity defines it, to be clear). That means God intended that evil. And that's a contradiction. If God did any evil act, he cannot be "all-good", yet God would be responsible for *every* evil act (and all good ones; everything, obviously; that's what the story says: an all-knowing God made everything!).
If that doesn't make sense, consider a Perfect Baseball Pitcher. He knows everything has a perfect throwing arm, perfectly strong, etc. _Wherever the ball ends up is that Pitcher's intent, right?_ Because he can literally account for everything (wind, objects thrown to block his baseball, etc). Well an all-knowing God would be just like that: anywhere the universe ends up is God's intent, and so we know God can't exist.
@@majmage he means show up as Second Coming, not just show up to talk
@ Right, and my explanation is why that's a nonsense belief, yeah? An all-knowing, all-powerful god interested in our belief/worship wouldn't have resulted in the reality we find ourselves in. A reality without reasonable evidence of a god.
