Living Waters ..... Brother Ray, You are a blessing to me in the way that you teach us how to gently and lovingly share the gospel with others in real and tangible scenarios. I will purchase tracts when I am able, God willing. Many blessings to you and your family! Your Sister in Christ Yeshua, Kelly
Dee Shaffer We could fix that high shipping cost the Post Office charges, by raising the price of the tracts (we are in California, so it costs more to ship across the country). It’s all relative. If the pack was $20, with just $8.50 for shipping, it doesn’t sound too bad. We’d love shipping to be lower. It’s a dilemma. Blessings, Ray
Islam Defender Yahya cdn4.vectorstock.com/i/1000x1000/18/08/clover-leaf-vector-961808.jpg Here is the picture St Patrick used to explain the Trinity. It is not a perfect illustration, but it’s good enough, if you wish to understand. This is one leaf, in three parts. The leaf is all one substance, the parts are all linked together as one, and yet are distinct. Likewise, God is one, but expresses through three distinct personalities. Only “the Son” manifested in human form and lived as a perfect man. He is both the Son of God and the Son of Man. He is not the son of a man, but “the seed of the woman” spoken of in Genesis. He became a man to reveal God to a lost and dying world. Even the Koran says that Mary was a virgin, though it is mistaken in saying that she was Moses’ sister. Instead of judging the world from an unreachable height, God came down from heaven, lived a sinless life, died on a cross to pay the penalty for all the sins of anyone who will receive him as Lord and Saviour, then rose from the dead to eternal life. Those who believe in Jesus, as He appears in the Bible, receive eternal life as a gift from Him. All this qualifies Jesus to judge humanity at the end of the age. No one will be able to say to Him, “You don’t know what it was like living on earth ...... “. He knows. Jesus is not a human being who became “enlightened.” He is God who came down from heaven to bring light into the world. He is unique among men. There is none like Him.
I love how you don't give up on sharing the gospel, even in the face of the person rejecting Jesus, it shows that you truly believe in the power of the gospel. Majorly encouraged by this.
Church people are some of the most hateful people towards Blacks and gays. Hating on gay people isn't gonna make your life any better. You degrade gays just like the Racists to us Blacks. Smh
He is a kind man. I think he rejects believing in God because he's afraid God rejects him because of his sexuality. Pray for the seed planted in this encounter. He doesn't realize how much God loves him.

@Mohamed Elbanna You should read the Bible so you don't make any further dumb statements: (1 John 5:7 KJV) For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
@Make You Great Again (Matthew 18:19 KJV) Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
That person was so deceived, nothing he said made any sense at all. Praying for him. His sin was my testimony, but God pursued me and called me to Him. I have repented and now seek Him with all that I have. Thank you Ray for evangelizing to that man. Hopefully he will think about it. But it seems the enemy had a hold of his heart and mind, unfortunately. It’s in Gods hands now.
Thank you all for your replies! It seems the Lord is using this comment to touch your hearts. I pray He draws you closer to Him and comforts your hearts; may we meet in Heaven that I may thank you in person :) ✝️📖🙏
Cats 2079, No, in fact I have discernment from the Holy Spirit because I have put my trust and faith in Christ Jesus our Saviour. Thus He blesses us with the Holy Spirit with which comes the discernment of the Holy Spirit. Nothing that man said made any intelligent sense whatsoever. And the 114 current likes to my comment confirms I’m not alone in that discernment. He is lost and is in bondage to the devil because of the sin he defiles himself with. I was once a slave to that very same sin, but as stated, God pursued me and called me to Him. God showed me the Truth, which I fell in love with and accepted. Now I am no longer a slave to that sin, but instead a child of God and a brother to Christ. If what that man said made sense to you, then you must also not believe in God, the One Who created you. Do you not see the catastrophic events taking place in the world? God is trying to wake people up; Jesus second return is VERY soon and now is the time to turn your heart to Christ Jesus. That is why brother Ray sacrifices his time and effort to reach the lost and preach the Gospel of Christ Jesus. I will pray for you also, hopefully you’ll make the wise decision to repent of sin and put your faith in Jesus Christ, Who died on the Cross so that we could be reconciled to Him. We all live forever; where you spend forever is your choice. What will you choose?
I noticed that he had a difficult time being judged and even called it wrong, yet had no problem passing judgement himself. I am also encouraged that he was so interested in Methuselah. The Lord knows him better than we, and his desire to look up Methuselah and learn more about him, may be the path that leads him to Noah, the flood, and regeneration. Nice young man, who has obviously never been taught anything concerning Old Testament or New Testament, and believes a lie, but is obviously seeking “something” outside himself, hence the Tarot cards. Thank you Mr. Comfort for you dedication and willingness to press the gospel whenever and wherever the opportunity arises, and for leaving the rest to The Holy Spirit. May God draw him near.
I don't think he had a "problem being judged".. He agreed with the Evangelist that he was a "Liar" and a "Thief".... If you've broken 1 of MY Commandments.. You're guilty of them ALL... Thts enough right there!!
Seeking something outside himself"...very good point and observation. I was into astrology/horoscooes/tarot etc., for MANY yrs before I was truly saved. I wanted to "know" what was really deep in my subconscience like Josh does. I wanted to know what the future held. I was scared to totally let God steer my life. I tried, on my own, to resist & stay away from it. It was definitely something I had to be delivered from. When I sincerely& desperatly asked God to deliver me from all that, he sure did. What a strange and wonderful experience. That's the ONLY reason I'm glad God allowed me to get tangled in that web in the first place.
Ephes 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.
@@SerenitySpace17 It was not God’s Will that man came into this place. It was the rebellion of man that brought him into a depraved state of being. So God gives man free will and a Loving Gift of. Grace to come back unto Him as His Children Again as He intended from the beginning. We all must make the choice. I chose to go through the Narrow Gate which is Christ and the Straight Path that leads to Eternal Life. This is the Love of God. If you choose to stay on the wide gate and crooked path that leads unto death, that is your choice. Gods Love is His Message of the Gospel. Most do not want to believe because they love the life of sinfulness. The few that receive this Grace God gives is because they seen their wickedness and their depraved life from God and repented and Believed, Trusted in Christ and the work He did upon the Cross. He offered us a New Life a New Creation, a New Nature, a Partakers of His Nature. But it is a Choice. Otherwise we would be like robots. If your daddy had a dozen children and one was evil, wicked, wanted to hurt the others, your dads love would remove the one to save the other eleven from any harm or wickedness. All that one has to do is repent and his dad would allow him back into his home.
@@SerenitySpace17 It is not repent your sins so to say. It is to repent from the sinful life we were born in this world. Repent means to turn from a New Mindset. The old mindset was spoiled by sinfulness this world had imbedded in us. The New Mindset is Taking on the New Life Jesus offers, one that is Right before God. All you have to do is desire this Life He offers and disdain and want to put away the old life. And pray and trust in Christ that He has given you this New Life. Ask Him to reveal to you this new life that you desire so much. He will do it in an instant if you really want it. But you must give Him all of the old to be crucified. Cannot hold back anything. He is faithful to pour His Love into you and show you this. Then you must get with other believers to help you, edify you and pray with and for you. It is all about wanting and receiving a New Identity. Where all of the old is done away with, and all things have become New to You. A New Idendity.
Thnk U brother!!.. I Receive it in Jesus's Name!.. And God Bless U in return for the Kindness and Sweetness that u have in Ur Heart for God's Ppl... "Grace DOES speak"... from U!!!... ✌😎❤🙏
Ray, this was such a good conversation with someone. You showed compassion but was also clear and you did not just dismiss his questions as if you needed to get through the video. You spoke with Love in truth. Thanks, Ray
To you who is watching this 🌟❤️ The Lord *bless you and keep you* ; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the *Lord turn his face toward you* and give you *peace* - Rock on!! 🌟❤️🌟
The Word of God is clear and perfect. Romans 8:15 says " For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father" By the sacrifice of Jesus Christ we have full access to the father
@@pettyhuman2419 who is Bjorn? There is only one God. The creator of the universe. The term "Abba Father" is an informal, Aram. Term for Father that conveys a sense of intimacy. It connotes tenderness, dependence, and a relationship free of fear or anxiety
Pray for this man, I truly believe He will be saved. This encounter was so encouraging. Ray Comfort is truly being used by our King. God bless ✝️🙏🏻👍🏻❤️

Sigh...the old debate about repenting or believing to be saved...guys, please just do yourselves a big favor and google all the many verses which contains ONE or the OTHER - *_repent and be saved_* or *_believe and be saved_* kind of ideas. Don't waste your time getting hung up on either and then picking a non-existing fight. Both ideas are in the bible and therefore both must be right.
God has so much boldness he litterally used you, a seasoned gospel professor to interrupt that man's demonic studies. The God of heaven and Earth is pursing him. There's no way he's not thinking of this over and over. What gives me hope in seeing others saved is to look at my own life, how stubborn I was and yet how God showed his love to me and guided me on the right path. "Like iron sharpens iron so a friend sharpens a friend" Thanks for being a friend Ray!
Exactly. And to be in hell, they would have already faced God in judgment. That means two things: 1) they would have seen God's awesome holiness, and compared to that, we are toast, and 2) they would have had their sins utterly exposed, and not be able to deny it to themselves anymore. No one in hell would be in any doubt that they belong there. Praying for this guy.
@Go Nong No; free will exists, and so does justice. Your free will is not divorced from the ramifications of your (free-will-enabled) choices. In general parlance: you do the crime, you do the time.
@Go Nong Two very different things; hell as a state of mind: we are sovereign there, and yes, as we create much of our own suffering via our thinking....our will can help. Hell as an eternal realm/state that exists outside of 'us'.....over which we have no sovereignty: that's a whole other kettle of fish. My sense of compassion abhors the idea of it; for most of my life I've denied the possibility of any kind of eternal 'hell'. That's been challenged lately though; I've had my spirit? opened to its possibility. I also have awoken to God's incredible love and a personal, undeniable relationship that literally changed the world overnight for me; try as I might, I can't believe or think the things I did only a couple of months ago. I'm a different person. So, I know where you're coming from.....I would have seen myself as a total nutter if I could see what I believe now, back then....a mere two months! Life has got very, very real. It's not a game, or a poetic narrative without consequence. I pray everyone opens to a true connection with God in this life....friends, strangers, enemies....that's my will, and all I can do is pray that it's God's; that mercy will overshadow a perfect Creator's justice.
Elysian Sounds well God gives us a choice. We can either choose to believe in Him and follow Him, or we can choose not to believe in Him. It’s totally your choice. He won’t force us into a relationship with Him and no matter what you choose His great unfailing love for us never changes. God bless!! ❤️
That was painful to watch. But he heard the Gospel. And no has no excuse. Thanks for sharing these, Ray. It helps when we see the ones that don't always go as we plan.
I could tell from the outset he was hostile to being witnessed to. Like my father, who's an ANTI-theist, but not QUITE that bad. Like at least he didn't launch a verbal assault on Ray. I got yelled at and gaslighted and my father even committed blasphemy because I told him that God loved him! And I don't just mean "taking the Lord's name in vain"--which is something I don't really understand since "God" isn't actually God's NAME, is it? Doesn't it actually start with a "Y"? (I try never to use God's ACTUAL name at all since I don't want to take it "in vain" accidentally. What does "in vain" even actually MEAN???) Whereas "God" seems like a title or description to me, as in, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." So if I were to say, "Oh my [insert generic term for a deity here]," how is that taking His name in vain? . Anyway, not only did my anti-theist spout out a bunch of anti-God unbiblical nonsense at me (when he should know better; he's read the Bible all the way through AT LEAST once!), but he told me he was no longer my father and never to contact him again, and signed it with his full name (in an e-mail).
@@MrTahref Thank you! I know God is the only one who can change his heart. I've been praying for him, but since we can't even communicate, he can use all the prayer he can get; he doesn't want ANYTHING to do with Christians. In fact, my whole family needs prayer, if anyone is so inclined. My sister hasn't spoken to me for four years and her husband, who's an atheist, is openly hostile towards me. Their two now-19-year-old daughters, who were raised with no religion except for what my mother managed to teach them about Christianity while she was babysitting for them long ago now, which I don't think their parents liked, the husband being very controlling. I haven't seen them since they were 15 when they still liked me, but they still ignore or reject my social-media requests, and my father confirmed to me that their father turned them against me. He also had me banned from visiting my mother at the nursing home she's in for three years; I suspect he was jealous because I was visiting her almost every day and bought her a cell phone he didn't want her to have, found out all the activities she could get involved in there and would take her out for lunch or shopping (he didn't know she could do ANY of that) and the last straw was when they were treating me as he caregiver and he found out I knew more about her medical situation than HE did because I was friends with all the nurses. (He seems to want to keep me feeling inferior and incompetent without him.) So HE suddenly started visiting a few times a week and smeared me to the nurses and social worker, who's like the "gatekeeper" of who's allowed to visit. My mom's now in the late stages of vascular dementia, now that I FINALLY got the state health department involved back in February (after contacting everyone else I could think of for help, being told that as her husband, he's her next of kin and what he says goes and believing it) and am allowed (by LAW) to contact her again. (As "next-of-kin" he can only override me on medical decisions, NOT on who's allowed to visit her.) But she's declined so much in that time, it'd be hard to communicate with her in person, but during the lockdown on Zoom for a half-hour once a week, it's nearly impossible. . (It's like as soon as my mother was out of the picture holding together this illusion of a close-knit, loving family where everyone respected her wishes, they all felt free to make their true feelings about me known. And my brother-in-law has outright accused me of FAKING the disabilities I have due to Hypermobile Type Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which is an "invisible illness" with symptoms that get worse with age; my mother has it too, and my father's been telling my sister and me she was a hypochondriac since we were kids. My sister still believes him, and, since I've developed so many of the same seemingly separate medical problems she has, she seems to think I'm a hypochondriac too. In short, my father's a "covert narcissist" and so is her husband. And in my excessive experience with narcissists, it makes sense to me that they can't believe there's a higher power than themselves who wants to be worshipped. Or loved/loves US. Even my father asked my why my "imaginary" God would love someone who doesn't acknowledge Him! My father speaks pretty fluent Greek, so you'd think he could comprehend the concept of "agape," but my attempt to explain just made him angrier! Narcissists are literally incapable of feeling genuine, conditional love and think everyone else is like them--they only "love" you for what you can DO for them. So when he prayed for something in Jesus' name and it didn't magically happen like the Bible says it would without giving any "conditions," that was "proof" to him that God doesn't exist.) . ONE of my nieces seemed more interested in Christianity than the other after the first (maybe ONLY) time she was ever in a church, for her grandfather's funeral, and they were both asking my mother a lot of questions, like who she was talking to when she prayed over them at bedtime. So I gave them my own children's Bible but then never heard about or saw it again; I wouldn't be surprised if my sister's husband saw it, got mad, and just threw it out; he doesn't have a sentimental bone in his body and throws *everything* out! I HOPE one day I'll be able to get back in touch with her; she's extremely shy but was the one who seemed most affectionate towards me as they got older and was the one to invite me to follow her on Pinterest. She also hasn't *rejected* my social media requests; she just lets them sit there. Especially now that--I assume--their parents don't control all their computer use. They're "away" at college for the time being--until COVID shuts everything back down again. I wonder if one of those tracts would help, and, if so, which one. (I was thinking those ones with the dollar in them might be good to give out at Halloween. For the three trick-or-treaters we get every year--except last year because of bad weather! It'd sure be a lot cheaper than buying a ton of candy "just in case" that only ends up making US gain weight!) . Thanks again. God bless you!❤️️🙏✝️
He said if he were to go to hell he’d fight evil there, he doesn’t know that he would be apart of that evil. If anything he’d be fighting himself. That’s hell.
Actually, I was thinking, since we're not having much success fighting evil here on earth, how much LESS success would we have in the place that's meant to contain ALL evil, past, present, and future (and, from a Christian perspective, no God, the source of all goodness)? Maybe Ray should've pointed out how great it would be to go to a place after we die where there's no more evil to fight. (Not that Josh would believe it.)
He was actually intimating that GOD is the evil and that they will be fighting GOD....! Just watch his statement and body language again. He is obviously ignorant of the gathering of all the kings and armies of earth preparing for battle against Him who appears in the skies ( EZekiel 38 and Revelation 19). Not once - but twice ! Once just as they are about to attack and destroy Jerusalem and then get killed by the sword coming from the rider on the horse and then again as they resume the same battle after the second resurrection when Satan gets released from the Abyss and they all get destroyed once again by fire from heaven - Revelation 20.
That rebellion/defiance he expressed directly against God looking up to the sky was profound. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the spiritual war we're dealing with
This poor man is woefully deceived to think that the punished in hell could ever think about fighting back against God. Psalm 2 speaks of the nations uniting together to fight against God. God's response: "He who sits in the heavens laughs; / the Lord holds them in derision. / Then he will speak to them in his wrath , / and terrify them in his fury," Don't join the wrong team. Everyone will kneel before God and confess that Christ is Lord: either as a faithful servant and child of God, or as a conquered and guilty people.
@Go Nong The fact that your asking that and even prasuming incorrectly that Mr. Comfort is saying that, shows God gave us limited free will. Only God has "Unlimited" Free Will. The reason I put quotes around that is that God has no shadow of turning, the scriptures teach us, so He Chooses with His Actual Unlimited Free Will to be limited to Being Good/ Correct and Not To Choose Wrong/ Incorrect. We are limited beings, this should tell us right away we can't be unlimited in our choices/ will to do things. I don't know why God Chooses to create and save even one of us, since we all deserve His righteous Judgements. What I mean by that is, that other then Him making The Way for His being part called His Word that became The Only Begotten Son of God and Son of man, to Stand in our place of guilt, there really is no understandable reason that we can understand at this time in this life, that he would even choose to create us. Other than one exception that we can kind of understand at this time in this life. The reason being to Prove/ Show How Great And Caring He Is and Can be. Despite how his creation is allowed to and does choose to turn away from Him. I am so Thankfull That He Choose to and to keep choosing to turn my mind/ heart back to Him, despite my turning so many times to trespassing against Him, and others and even against my own piteful and unreliable morality from within my myself that I also have not lived up to, even! Thank You Dear God / Creator / Holy Lamb of God Who Takes away my sins, and The Holy Spirit of God for Choosing to also come in Christ Place to draw us unto You. No One, Not even I have been able to care for me as You Have Chosen To. Thank You So Very Eternaly Sooooo Muchhhhhh!!!! Amen! =0))))))
I believe he was saying he would still fight evil if he was in hell... Then I thought of the book of Joshua. Then he said his name was Josh. Am I the only one seeing this?
I like how Josh didn't use any foul language or blaspheme. He is an intelligent individual, definitely has great vocab. Glad he listened and I pray that seed grows.
Thank you for all you do at Living Waters. I have a godly jealousy for sharing the gospel the way you do! If no one is ever saved that you witness to, just know that my faith (and I’m sure many others) is made stronger each time I watch your videos. May the Lord bless you and keep you all!
You encouraged me to read my Bible today! Something I haven’t done in a while, I kept putting it off, but thank you!!The fear of my father coming tomorrow and me not being worthy to go with him is terrifying 🙏🏼
God Bless you Ray Comfort! Love how you share the gospel with everyone and with boldness. Inspires me to do the same one day. Even purchased your book faith is for weak people to inform me more.
God have mercy of us. We need you all times, all moments, all seconds. Make this young man to see his necessity of your presence in his live. Your are our strength.
It's really hard to talk to people who base their identity on their sin, they will definitely get offended at the biblical gospel, no matter how incoherent their position is. "by nature children of wrath" Thanks for sharing Ray. Praying for you bro.
@SPAZ5OUT My bad. that's from Ephesians 2 - which gives us the description of an unregenerated person: "And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience-among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind" Ephesians 2.1-3 Meaning: spiritually dead. That's the Apostle Paul's understanding of why we need grace in order to be reconciled to God, he then continues with the good news: "But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved-and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus" Ephesians 2.4-7 By God's grace we can be made spiritually alive, which is another way of saying "your eyes are opened" or "you become free from the bondage of sin" and it means that we are enabled to do the things that please God, such as repent and putting our trust in Jesus because we understand the necessity of Him.
The tribulation even before hell because we are living in Revelations also will show God's power it's too much to bear for someone to not believe in God
Thank GOD that he loves us even when we are lost like this guy. Pray for our brothers and sisters that one soul will be kept out of hell will be worth that one pray that might have saved one soul and that is worth it all.
Oh I found that interview so incredibly sad for this young man. If Josh doesn't accept this wonderful gift of Salvation and never comes to the Lord he will remember every word spoken between himself and Ray for all eternity. 😭 The regret oh the regret !!!!!! 😭
Pray for me so that I can follow God. And that I can forget my past (a lady) and so that I can move on, if God wants me to share the gospel to her then it will be done. Because although people hurts us we must share want is most important which is God and their salvation.
Beware! I needed to stay away from a man who tempted me to sin. I tried to witness to him, but he just kept seducing me. I had to cut him out of my life. He rejected what I wanted to help him find. True forgiveness of his sins.
Send an older woman to her to spread the gospel. Mail her a gospel tract with a letter. from you. YOU dont need to actually be in her physical presence to spread the gospel to her. Do not think you are not able to fall again. Stay away from temptations. Do not play with fire! Blessings to you
Lord please continue to knock on the door of this mans heart. Lord please send more workers like Ray to plant and water seeds onto this beautiful soul. And may Your Holy Spirit put a fire in the hearts of every single believer that watches this video to pray for this young man, in Jesus mighty name Amen.🙏🏿✝️
Jeremiah 17 (KJV) - 13: O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
EVERYONE has a way IN... We just need to ask God to reveal it to us... That takes TIME INVESTED in that person... Not in 20.. 30min "Bible Track" kinda way.... I hope and pray that Someone can really address his questions and spend more quality time with him.. Amen...😎🙏❤
Ray comfort you teach me to talk to people about all of there's topic so at school I walk around and talk to people about the after life and other thing that you say and most have listed! I been talking to my teacher about this to I just want to say thanks for teach me about it and thanks god for letting me came a cross this channel and God bless you all .
Our pasta, who art in a colander, draining be your noodles. Thy noodle come, Thy sauce be yum, on top some grated Parmesan. Give us this day our garlic bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trample on our lawns. And lead us not into vegetarianism, but deliver us some pizza, for thine is the meatball, the onion, and the bay leaves, forever and ever. R'Amen.
The truth is he loves his sin above all else. I suppose when you are young the prospect of death seems far removed, so in his mind he doesn't care about consequences.
I hear this claim a lot, that it's about "loving sin". Why can't it just be that an individual remains unconvinced of the arguments for Gods existence?
@@ElysianSounds because it is obvious that God exists. If you see a green sign on the free way with white lettering which says Los Angeles 100 miles, common sense tell me there was intelligent design behind that simple road sign. The universe is designed with a marvellous precision. The universe is 13.5 billion light years across in diameter, and this planet earth is exactly at the right spot where it could support life. Read the Creator and the Cosmos by Astronomer Hugh Ross. Dr. James Tour one of America's great scientists on the micro biology level can answer your questions. By the way I'm a Christian and I struggle with sexual sins among other sins. However we have throne of grace, where our sins can be forgiven once acknowledged.
A man being dead in his sin is not age discriminative. All men are hostile towards God until God intervenes and gives them the heart of repentance and the measure of faith. Blessings to you
The reliance on, belief in and glorification of self is such a prevailing trend I see in a lot of the people Ray witnesses to...It's easier to recognise it when you've been there yourself. So very grateful for God's mercy on me.
Actually adultery CAN be a relationship. I heard a testimony from a woman who was living with a married man who had left his wife to be with her. She became a Christian (I’m not sure if he did too). The church she went to did not put pressure on her to leave him, believing that the Lord would sort the situation out in His way and in His time. She loved this man and could not bear to leave him. The church encouraged her to grow in her relationship with Lord. Through the love of Jesus, after two years, she became able to separate from the married man, and he returned to his wife. It was no easy thing for either, or any, of them. Reading the Bible, I realised God never intended us to experience the agonies of separation. He designed a world without death and sorrow. Marriage was intended to build strong families and a loving, protected, safe environment to bring children into the world. Divorce between parents causes children immense pain.....some commit suicide; I knew a young man who did just that. The Bible says sex was intended to bind people together as one. Separation can be more painful than amputation. It was never God’s will. As we now live in a fallen world, corruption has entered into all kinds of relationships. 1 Corinthians 6:18 says, “Flee sexual immorality..... “. In other words, run for your life! Love is a very precious gift from God, and needs to be handled with great care. This man is someone very special, I hope God will bring him through to salvation and peace.
Easy, i have an atheist friend, she believes (not for fun) that we will be fairies and there is a fairy realm after this. Where do people get these ideas?
@@smochygrice465 I'm not 100% but I think that Tarot cards are pretty much centered around the spiritual realm and demonic forces. So he would have to believe in some kind of God I would imagine.
That just shows how confused and deceived he is by the power of darkness. Only God Himself can "punch him in the nose" and wake him up. And he wants to fight God in hell??? Oh boy...
I would hit the thumb button for the rest of my life Ray Comfort but that is not possible...THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO IN PARTICULAR! AND THANK YOU GOD FOR SUCH A INSPIRING AND LIFE CHANGING MESSAGES!😇🕊
His stumbling block was homosexuality. He doesn’t want to give it up and justifies it away. I notice whenever Ray brings up an argument that makes sense, blinders come on... defensiveness, laughter....this man places power in men. I pray for him
XxX_DarkWolf_XxX Can’t stop being gay? I respectfully disagree. You can stop acting on those desires. Of course it isn’t easy, but all of us have those sins that are harder to overcome. Transformation is entirely what the new birth is about. Our desires change and we no longer are a slave to sin.
@@cherylwells9756 ok your like the second person to respond to me and I tried posting a long response explaining my stance on this but for whatever reason it didnt show, so il just do it in parts then, maybe it'l show, if it dosent then il just look stupid ig but il try if it at all gets people to stop thinking it's a choice or something like that because its not
Praying for this Person that his heart becomes softened for the gospel of Jesus Christ. At least the seed is planted and I guess he is in more torment even more now restling with his conscience. He will be redeemed in Christ Jesus hallelujah!!
Dear Ray, though the gentleman says that he would not think about the conversation, I can say that the encounter would be too interesting to just pass it off for nothing. Not every day one comes across such lively, open and touching conversation. And I firmly believe the Holy Spirit will work His way... it usually starts with a chance encounter in such a place as the one that just happened.
Hey Ray and all 👋 😊 I’m not sure if you remember me... I was called Matt Mason before! Now I’ve changed my channel name and logo ☺️ Would love your thoughts??
Just checked out your how to get rid of condemnation video and it was excellent! Very honest and genuine, I love the logo and the music is perfect. I'll definitely be back friend!

Brother Ray,
You are a blessing to me in the way that you teach us how to gently and lovingly share the gospel with others in real and tangible scenarios.
I will purchase tracts when I am able, God willing.
Many blessings to you and your family!
Your Sister in Christ Yeshua,

When the shipping is more than the product, ugh, lol, but ordered anyways to leave in the lunchroom.
Dee Shaffer We could fix that high shipping cost the Post Office charges, by raising the price of the tracts (we are in California, so it costs more to ship across the country). It’s all relative. If the pack was $20, with just $8.50 for shipping, it doesn’t sound too bad. We’d love shipping to be lower. It’s a dilemma. Blessings, Ray
Faithful-Honest&True. No problem. Very nice of you to say that. God bless, Ray Comfort
I just got two! Thank you for making this available :)
It really breaks my heart when they don’t come to Christ but the seed was planted. I pray the Lord works in his heart!
Yes, here's praying that when he reads up about Methuselah that it grabs his interest and he can't help but continue pursuing it....
many are called but few will be chosen
Amen agreed
@@islamdefenderyahya4621 Do you understand the Psalms, Prophets and The Torah?
Islam Defender Yahya cdn4.vectorstock.com/i/1000x1000/18/08/clover-leaf-vector-961808.jpg
Here is the picture St Patrick used to explain the Trinity. It is not a perfect illustration, but it’s good enough, if you wish to understand.
This is one leaf, in three parts. The leaf is all one substance, the parts are all linked together as one, and yet are distinct. Likewise, God is one, but expresses through three distinct personalities. Only “the Son” manifested in human form and lived as a perfect man. He is both the Son of God and the Son of Man. He is not the son of a man, but “the seed of the woman” spoken of in Genesis. He became a man to reveal God to a lost and dying world. Even the Koran says that Mary was a virgin, though it is mistaken in saying that she was Moses’ sister. Instead of judging the world from an unreachable height, God came down from heaven, lived a sinless life, died on a cross to pay the penalty for all the sins of anyone who will receive him as Lord and Saviour, then rose from the dead to eternal life. Those who believe in Jesus, as He appears in the Bible, receive eternal life as a gift from Him. All this qualifies Jesus to judge humanity at the end of the age. No one will be able to say to Him, “You don’t know what it was like living on earth ...... “. He knows. Jesus is not a human being who became “enlightened.” He is God who came down from heaven to bring light into the world. He is unique among men. There is none like Him.
I love how you don't give up on sharing the gospel, even in the face of the person rejecting Jesus, it shows that you truly believe in the power of the gospel. Majorly encouraged by this.
Church people are some of the most hateful people towards Blacks and gays. Hating on gay people isn't gonna make your life any better. You degrade gays just like the Racists to us Blacks. Smh
@@damianedwards2327 stop spamming and same with you hating on Christians no hate should go around
He is a kind man. I think he rejects believing in God because he's afraid God rejects him because of his sexuality. Pray for the seed planted in this encounter. He doesn't realize how much God loves him.
AMEN. I would bet most of the gay community thinks exactly the same way.
Amen! I repented of that sin BECAUSE Jesus saved me. Too many times people try to put the cart before the horse

Josh will be a wonderful Christian. Praying for him to receive Jesus.
I just prayed that our Lord Jesus Christ will soften this young man's heart before it's too late. Please pray for him.
Blinded by Satan. He needs prayers!
@Mohamed Elbanna You should read the Bible so you don't make any further dumb statements:
(1 John 5:7 KJV) For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
Truthinthescriptures, Amen!
@Make You Great Again (Matthew 18:19 KJV) Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
Good call thank you so much.
That person was so deceived, nothing he said made any sense at all. Praying for him. His sin was my testimony, but God pursued me and called me to Him. I have repented and now seek Him with all that I have. Thank you Ray for evangelizing to that man. Hopefully he will think about it. But it seems the enemy had a hold of his heart and mind, unfortunately. It’s in Gods hands now.
"Liked" your comments!
Bless you! I cried when I read your words!
Thank you all for your replies! It seems the Lord is using this comment to touch your hearts. I pray He draws you closer to Him and comforts your hearts; may we meet in Heaven that I may thank you in person :) ✝️📖🙏
Nothing he said made any sense? You must have been deliberately ignoring what he was saying.
Cats 2079, No, in fact I have discernment from the Holy Spirit because I have put my trust and faith in Christ Jesus our Saviour. Thus He blesses us with the Holy Spirit with which comes the discernment of the Holy Spirit. Nothing that man said made any intelligent sense whatsoever. And the 114 current likes to my comment confirms I’m not alone in that discernment. He is lost and is in bondage to the devil because of the sin he defiles himself with. I was once a slave to that very same sin, but as stated, God pursued me and called me to Him. God showed me the Truth, which I fell in love with and accepted. Now I am no longer a slave to that sin, but instead a child of God and a brother to Christ. If what that man said made sense to you, then you must also not believe in God, the One Who created you. Do you not see the catastrophic events taking place in the world? God is trying to wake people up; Jesus second return is VERY soon and now is the time to turn your heart to Christ Jesus. That is why brother Ray sacrifices his time and effort to reach the lost and preach the Gospel of Christ Jesus. I will pray for you also, hopefully you’ll make the wise decision to repent of sin and put your faith in Jesus Christ, Who died on the Cross so that we could be reconciled to Him. We all live forever; where you spend forever is your choice. What will you choose?
I noticed that he had a difficult time being judged and even called it wrong, yet had no problem passing judgement himself. I am also encouraged that he was so interested in Methuselah. The Lord knows him better than we, and his desire to look up Methuselah and learn more about him, may be the path that leads him to Noah, the flood, and regeneration. Nice young man, who has obviously never been taught anything concerning Old Testament or New Testament, and believes a lie, but is obviously seeking “something” outside himself, hence the Tarot cards. Thank you Mr. Comfort for you dedication and willingness to press the gospel whenever and wherever the opportunity arises, and for leaving the rest to The Holy Spirit. May God draw him near.
You raise a great point. He's looking. He didn't know details or the reason of his tarot cards. Pray we meet him in glory!!
Well said!
I don't think he had a "problem being judged".. He agreed with the Evangelist that he was a "Liar" and a "Thief".... If you've broken 1 of MY Commandments.. You're guilty of them ALL... Thts enough right there!!
Seeking something outside himself"...very good point and observation. I was into astrology/horoscooes/tarot etc., for MANY yrs before I was truly saved. I wanted to "know" what was really deep in my subconscience like Josh does. I wanted to know what the future held. I was scared to totally let God steer my life. I tried, on my own, to resist & stay away from it. It was definitely something I had to be delivered from. When I sincerely& desperatly asked God to deliver me from all that, he sure did. What a strange and wonderful experience. That's the ONLY reason I'm glad God allowed me to get tangled in that web in the first place.
Perfect!
Sure seems offended from a God he does not believe in.
Mr. GM 😂
Truth!
Ephes 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.
@@SerenitySpace17 It was not God’s Will that man came into this place. It was the rebellion of man that brought him into a depraved state of being. So God gives man free will and a Loving Gift of. Grace to come back unto Him as His Children Again as He intended from the beginning. We all must make the choice. I chose to go through the Narrow Gate which is Christ and the Straight Path that leads to Eternal Life. This is the Love of God. If you choose to stay on the wide gate and crooked path that leads unto death, that is your choice. Gods Love is His Message of the Gospel. Most do not want to believe because they love the life of sinfulness. The few that receive this Grace God gives is because they seen their wickedness and their depraved life from God and repented and Believed, Trusted in Christ and the work He did upon the Cross. He offered us a New Life a New Creation, a New Nature, a Partakers of His Nature. But it is a Choice. Otherwise we would be like robots. If your daddy had a dozen children and one was evil, wicked, wanted to hurt the others, your dads love would remove the one to save the other eleven from any harm or wickedness. All that one has to do is repent and his dad would allow him back into his home.
@@SerenitySpace17 It is not repent your sins so to say. It is to repent from the sinful life we were born in this world. Repent means to turn from a New Mindset. The old mindset was spoiled by sinfulness this world had imbedded in us. The New Mindset is Taking on the New Life Jesus offers, one that is Right before God. All you have to do is desire this Life He offers and disdain and want to put away the old life. And pray and trust in Christ that He has given you this New Life. Ask Him to reveal to you this new life that you desire so much. He will do it in an instant if you really want it. But you must give Him all of the old to be crucified. Cannot hold back anything. He is faithful to pour His Love into you and show you this. Then you must get with other believers to help you, edify you and pray with and for you. It is all about wanting and receiving a New Identity. Where all of the old is done away with, and all things have become New to You. A New Idendity.
I’m sitting here with tears in my eyes after watching this one.
Really.

That is the humblest service you can do to a stranger whom you don't even know personally.

Thank you! And I pray the same for you! Typical question last night
The whole creation groans together waiting for the adoption and redemption of of our mortal bodies to be able to Cry Out ABBA FATHER!
The Word of God is clear and perfect. Romans 8:15 says " For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father"
By the sacrifice of Jesus Christ we have full access to the father
who is Abba father? is it Bjorn?
@@pettyhuman2419 who is Bjorn?
There is only one God. The creator of the universe. The term "Abba Father" is an informal, Aram. Term for Father that conveys a sense of intimacy. It connotes tenderness, dependence, and a relationship free of fear or anxiety
He’s trembling at the message of the gospel because he feels convicted, praying for his salvation
Pray for this man, I truly believe He will be saved. This encounter was so encouraging. Ray Comfort is truly being used by our King. God bless ✝️🙏🏻👍🏻❤️
He was dead set in his homosexuality, we can HOPE & pray for his salvation
Ever lasting life is free for those how repent and trust in him which is are lord Jesus Christ

@@keirah8866 you dont understand the Gospel of Christ ! Salvation is a free gift !
Sigh...the old debate about repenting or believing to be saved...guys, please just do yourselves a big favor and google all the many verses which contains ONE or the OTHER - *_repent and be saved_* or *_believe and be saved_* kind of ideas. Don't waste your time getting hung up on either and then picking a non-existing fight. Both ideas are in the bible and therefore both must be right.
God has so much boldness he litterally used you, a seasoned gospel professor to interrupt that man's demonic studies. The God of heaven and Earth is pursing him. There's no way he's not thinking of this over and over. What gives me hope in seeing others saved is to look at my own life, how stubborn I was and yet how God showed his love to me and guided me on the right path. "Like iron sharpens iron so a friend sharpens a friend" Thanks for being a friend Ray!
Every video I watch I learn something new from Ray Comfort.
How? He says exactly the same thing every video
He's still thinking about it. That was an appointment from God to him through Ray.
How can anyone even fight back when he is in hell? All you will ever want is to be relieved of the suffering.
Exactly. And to be in hell, they would have already faced God in judgment. That means two things: 1) they would have seen God's awesome holiness, and compared to that, we are toast, and 2) they would have had their sins utterly exposed, and not be able to deny it to themselves anymore. No one in hell would be in any doubt that they belong there. Praying for this guy.
@Go Nong No; free will exists, and so does justice. Your free will is not divorced from the ramifications of your (free-will-enabled) choices. In general parlance: you do the crime, you do the time.
@Go Nong Or from an atheistic position: for every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. No free pass there either!
@Go Nong Two very different things; hell as a state of mind: we are sovereign there, and yes, as we create much of our own suffering via our thinking....our will can help. Hell as an eternal realm/state that exists outside of 'us'.....over which we have no sovereignty: that's a whole other kettle of fish. My sense of compassion abhors the idea of it; for most of my life I've denied the possibility of any kind of eternal 'hell'. That's been challenged lately though; I've had my spirit? opened to its possibility. I also have awoken to God's incredible love and a personal, undeniable relationship that literally changed the world overnight for me; try as I might, I can't believe or think the things I did only a couple of months ago. I'm a different person. So, I know where you're coming from.....I would have seen myself as a total nutter if I could see what I believe now, back then....a mere two months! Life has got very, very real. It's not a game, or a poetic narrative without consequence. I pray everyone opens to a true connection with God in this life....friends, strangers, enemies....that's my will, and all I can do is pray that it's God's; that mercy will overshadow a perfect Creator's justice.

That was painful to watch. But he heard the Gospel. And no has no excuse. Thanks for sharing these, Ray. It helps when we see the ones that don't always go as we plan.
"Liked"your comment!
I could tell from the outset he was hostile to being witnessed to. Like my father, who's an ANTI-theist, but not QUITE that bad. Like at least he didn't launch a verbal assault on Ray. I got yelled at and gaslighted and my father even committed blasphemy because I told him that God loved him! And I don't just mean "taking the Lord's name in vain"--which is something I don't really understand since "God" isn't actually God's NAME, is it? Doesn't it actually start with a "Y"? (I try never to use God's ACTUAL name at all since I don't want to take it "in vain" accidentally. What does "in vain" even actually MEAN???) Whereas "God" seems like a title or description to me, as in, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." So if I were to say, "Oh my [insert generic term for a deity here]," how is that taking His name in vain?
.
Anyway, not only did my anti-theist spout out a bunch of anti-God unbiblical nonsense at me (when he should know better; he's read the Bible all the way through AT LEAST once!), but he told me he was no longer my father and never to contact him again, and signed it with his full name (in an e-mail).
@@mooncove i pray God will help you with this difficult situation
@@MrTahref Thank you! I know God is the only one who can change his heart. I've been praying for him, but since we can't even communicate, he can use all the prayer he can get; he doesn't want ANYTHING to do with Christians. In fact, my whole family needs prayer, if anyone is so inclined.
My sister hasn't spoken to me for four years and her husband, who's an atheist, is openly hostile towards me. Their two now-19-year-old daughters, who were raised with no religion except for what my mother managed to teach them about Christianity while she was babysitting for them long ago now, which I don't think their parents liked, the husband being very controlling. I haven't seen them since they were 15 when they still liked me, but they still ignore or reject my social-media requests, and my father confirmed to me that their father turned them against me. He also had me banned from visiting my mother at the nursing home she's in for three years; I suspect he was jealous because I was visiting her almost every day and bought her a cell phone he didn't want her to have, found out all the activities she could get involved in there and would take her out for lunch or shopping (he didn't know she could do ANY of that) and the last straw was when they were treating me as he caregiver and he found out I knew more about her medical situation than HE did because I was friends with all the nurses. (He seems to want to keep me feeling inferior and incompetent without him.) So HE suddenly started visiting a few times a week and smeared me to the nurses and social worker, who's like the "gatekeeper" of who's allowed to visit. My mom's now in the late stages of vascular dementia, now that I FINALLY got the state health department involved back in February (after contacting everyone else I could think of for help, being told that as her husband, he's her next of kin and what he says goes and believing it) and am allowed (by LAW) to contact her again. (As "next-of-kin" he can only override me on medical decisions, NOT on who's allowed to visit her.) But she's declined so much in that time, it'd be hard to communicate with her in person, but during the lockdown on Zoom for a half-hour once a week, it's nearly impossible.
.
(It's like as soon as my mother was out of the picture holding together this illusion of a close-knit, loving family where everyone respected her wishes, they all felt free to make their true feelings about me known. And my brother-in-law has outright accused me of FAKING the disabilities I have due to Hypermobile Type Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which is an "invisible illness" with symptoms that get worse with age; my mother has it too, and my father's been telling my sister and me she was a hypochondriac since we were kids. My sister still believes him, and, since I've developed so many of the same seemingly separate medical problems she has, she seems to think I'm a hypochondriac too. In short, my father's a "covert narcissist" and so is her husband. And in my excessive experience with narcissists, it makes sense to me that they can't believe there's a higher power than themselves who wants to be worshipped. Or loved/loves US. Even my father asked my why my "imaginary" God would love someone who doesn't acknowledge Him! My father speaks pretty fluent Greek, so you'd think he could comprehend the concept of "agape," but my attempt to explain just made him angrier! Narcissists are literally incapable of feeling genuine, conditional love and think everyone else is like them--they only "love" you for what you can DO for them. So when he prayed for something in Jesus' name and it didn't magically happen like the Bible says it would without giving any "conditions," that was "proof" to him that God doesn't exist.)
.
ONE of my nieces seemed more interested in Christianity than the other after the first (maybe ONLY) time she was ever in a church, for her grandfather's funeral, and they were both asking my mother a lot of questions, like who she was talking to when she prayed over them at bedtime. So I gave them my own children's Bible but then never heard about or saw it again; I wouldn't be surprised if my sister's husband saw it, got mad, and just threw it out; he doesn't have a sentimental bone in his body and throws *everything* out! I HOPE one day I'll be able to get back in touch with her; she's extremely shy but was the one who seemed most affectionate towards me as they got older and was the one to invite me to follow her on Pinterest. She also hasn't *rejected* my social media requests; she just lets them sit there. Especially now that--I assume--their parents don't control all their computer use. They're "away" at college for the time being--until COVID shuts everything back down again. I wonder if one of those tracts would help, and, if so, which one. (I was thinking those ones with the dollar in them might be good to give out at Halloween. For the three trick-or-treaters we get every year--except last year because of bad weather! It'd sure be a lot cheaper than buying a ton of candy "just in case" that only ends up making US gain weight!)

Thanks again. God bless you!❤️️🙏✝️
Ray you do such a VERY GOOD Job!! Thank you for give us such simple blue print to follow and share with others!!
The rest is up to the Holy Spirit. He will speak to this man in the quiet moments. Let’s pray he can humble himself and listen.
Yes.
True
Love these encouraging witnessing testimonies! Thank you Ray! You make it look so easy.
The love in Rays heart for the lost is commendable and glorifies God who gave it to him! God bless Ray Comfort.
He said if he were to go to hell he’d fight evil there, he doesn’t know that he would be apart of that evil. If anything he’d be fighting himself. That’s hell.
That makes so much sense
Actually, I was thinking, since we're not having much success fighting evil here on earth, how much LESS success would we have in the place that's meant to contain ALL evil, past, present, and future (and, from a Christian perspective, no God, the source of all goodness)? Maybe Ray should've pointed out how great it would be to go to a place after we die where there's no more evil to fight. (Not that Josh would believe it.)
He was actually intimating that GOD is the evil and that they will be fighting GOD....! Just watch his statement and body language again.
He is obviously ignorant of the gathering of all the kings and armies of earth preparing for battle against Him who appears in the skies ( EZekiel 38 and Revelation 19). Not once - but twice ! Once just as they are about to attack and destroy Jerusalem and then get killed by the sword coming from the rider on the horse and then again as they resume the same battle after the second resurrection when Satan gets released from the Abyss and they all get destroyed once again by fire from heaven - Revelation 20.
kevin ruiters Yeah when he said he’d be fighting that’s what I was thinking of too
This whole section of replies are blowing my mind.
That rebellion/defiance he expressed directly against God looking up to the sky was profound. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the spiritual war we're dealing with
This poor man is woefully deceived to think that the punished in hell could ever think about fighting back against God. Psalm 2 speaks of the nations uniting together to fight against God. God's response: "He who sits in the heavens laughs; / the Lord holds them in derision. / Then he will speak to them in his wrath , / and terrify them in his fury,"
Don't join the wrong team. Everyone will kneel before God and confess that Christ is Lord: either as a faithful servant and child of God, or as a conquered and guilty people.
I felt that! God bless u
wish ray would have said jesus ALREADY defeated death ON THE CROSS! But i loved everything ray said so important and cool that he is jewish too.
@Go Nong The fact that your asking that and even prasuming incorrectly that Mr. Comfort is saying that, shows God gave us limited free will. Only God has "Unlimited" Free Will. The reason I put quotes around that is that God has no shadow of turning, the scriptures teach us, so He Chooses with His Actual Unlimited Free Will to be limited to Being Good/ Correct and Not To Choose Wrong/ Incorrect. We are limited beings, this should tell us right away we can't be unlimited in our choices/ will to do things. I don't know why God Chooses to create and save even one of us, since we all deserve His righteous Judgements. What I mean by that is, that other then Him making The Way for His being part called His Word that became The Only Begotten Son of God and Son of man, to Stand in our place of guilt, there really is no understandable reason that we can understand at this time in this life, that he would even choose to create us. Other than one exception that we can kind of understand at this time in this life. The reason being to Prove/ Show How Great And Caring He Is and Can be. Despite how his creation is allowed to and does choose to turn away from Him. I am so Thankfull That He Choose to and to keep choosing to turn my mind/ heart back to Him, despite my turning so many times to trespassing against Him, and others and even against my own piteful and unreliable morality from within my myself that I also have not lived up to, even! Thank You Dear God / Creator / Holy Lamb of God Who Takes away my sins, and The Holy Spirit of God for Choosing to also come in Christ Place to draw us unto You. No One, Not even I have been able to care for me as You Have Chosen To. Thank You So Very Eternaly Sooooo Muchhhhhh!!!! Amen! =0))))))
I believe he was saying he would still fight evil if he was in hell... Then I thought of the book of Joshua. Then he said his name was Josh. Am I the only one seeing this?

That was amazing....the way you handled that....and your Gospel pack is awesome.....GOD bless you and your little dog
I love the work you do ray comfort. Keep spreading the word of the lord. God bless
Thank you for all you do at Living Waters. I have a godly jealousy for sharing the gospel the way you do! If no one is ever saved that you witness to, just know that my faith (and I’m sure many others) is made stronger each time I watch your videos. May the Lord bless you and keep you all!
You were so respectful during this encounter I love it God bless you 😊
I love you Ray. Your videos are inspirational.
I sure do like this man. May God speak to his heart in the language that unlocks the doorway to the way, the truth and the life!!
God bless and keep Ray Comfort.
You encouraged me to read my Bible today! Something I haven’t done in a while, I kept putting it off, but thank you!!The fear of my father coming tomorrow and me not being worthy to go with him is terrifying 🙏🏼
Love your honesty Ray!
A very gracious gospel presentation...God bless you Ray and Living Waters!
Bless u ray!
Ray Confort is my hero! So much respect for you my brother in Christ! 🙏🏻💙
God Bless you Ray Comfort! Love how you share the gospel with everyone and with boldness. Inspires me to do the same one day. Even purchased your book faith is for weak people to inform me more.
Today is the day.
I love you Ray , your one of Gods faithful man that spread the word to save the lost.
I can tell this guy is actually absorbing this information. God can change your desires and your heart. He loves you so much!
Light penetrates darkness. It's Physics. This little light of mine...
God have mercy of us. We need you all times, all moments, all seconds. Make this young man to see his necessity of your presence in his live. Your are our strength.
It's really hard to talk to people who base their identity on their sin, they will definitely get offended at the biblical gospel, no matter how incoherent their position is.
"by nature children of wrath"
Thanks for sharing Ray. Praying for you bro.
@SPAZ5OUT My bad. that's from Ephesians 2 - which gives us the description of an unregenerated person:
"And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience-among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind" Ephesians 2.1-3
Meaning: spiritually dead. That's the Apostle Paul's understanding of why we need grace in order to be reconciled to God, he then continues with the good news:
"But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved-and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus" Ephesians 2.4-7
By God's grace we can be made spiritually alive, which is another way of saying "your eyes are opened" or "you become free from the bondage of sin" and it means that we are enabled to do the things that please God, such as repent and putting our trust in Jesus because we understand the necessity of Him.
I love these tracks!!!!
This man will find out the truth soon enough. Rise up and conquer in Hell??? He has a lot to learn about his creator's power. He will cry.
To conquer hell you would have to write the greatest rock song in the world. Tough, but possible - Tenacious D did it
@@pettyhuman2419 What did he name that song??? Oh, don't tell me... "Rise up and conquer in Hell". Right?
If God has to visit earth with a spaceship then I highly doubt he is that powerful.
The tribulation even before hell because we are living in Revelations also will show God's power it's too much to bear for someone to not believe in God
No one will be able to prepare for it also just realized ur username lol
I love that tract pack you show at the end! I need to order more
Thank GOD that he loves us even when we are lost like this guy. Pray for our brothers and sisters that one soul will be kept out of hell will be worth that one pray that might have saved one soul and that is worth it all.
Thank you for being the light AND the salt.
This broke my heart!
Why?
Lord please open this man's eyes and heart to Your Truths... very heart breaking Brother Ray. Love y'all ~John
Jesus set me free from the LGBT lifestyle as well, glory to God. I love him so much.
This is why I feel in love with evangelism bc of Mr. Ray and David Lynn on youtube!!!
Oh I found that interview so incredibly sad for this young man. If Josh doesn't accept this wonderful gift of Salvation and never comes to the Lord he will remember every word spoken between himself and Ray for all eternity. 😭 The regret oh the regret !!!!!! 😭
These videos and all the scripture! Feed our spirit and recall the truth that we may have forgotten!
This guy seems like a genuinely nice guy, I really hope the Holy Spirit touches him.
Thank you for sharing the gospel. My heart goes out for this young man.
Pray for me so that I can follow God. And that I can forget my past (a lady) and so that I can move on, if God wants me to share the gospel to her then it will be done. Because although people hurts us we must share want is most important which is God and their salvation.
Amen I have some persons I have trouble being around, but we must get over that for the sake of eternal life or death. God bless you! I’ll pray
Beware! I needed to stay away from a man who tempted me to sin. I tried to witness to him, but he just kept seducing me. I had to cut him out of my life. He rejected what I wanted to help him find. True forgiveness of his sins.
Send an older woman to her to spread the gospel. Mail her a gospel tract with a letter. from you. YOU dont need to actually be in her physical presence to spread the gospel to her. Do not think you are not able to fall again. Stay away from temptations. Do not play with fire!
Blessings to you
Lord please continue to knock on the door of this mans heart. Lord please send more workers like Ray to plant and water seeds onto this beautiful soul. And may Your Holy Spirit put a fire in the hearts of every single believer that watches this video to pray for this young man, in Jesus mighty name Amen.🙏🏿✝️
Avoids God like a criminal avoids the police.
Str33t Tr1pl3 My brother does this.
Jeremiah 17 (KJV) -
13: O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
EVERYONE has a way IN... We just need to ask God to reveal it to us... That takes TIME INVESTED in that person... Not in 20.. 30min "Bible Track" kinda way.... I hope and pray that Someone can really address his questions and spend more quality time with him.. Amen...😎🙏❤
You are very good and an inspiration - thank you!
Say YES to JESUS. Repent and believe. Be born again and be eternally saved. 🙏💗🙏
Great word Ray!!
Wow, the heart is desperately wicked for real... Lord have mercy on us all
Well said😊
Thank you Ray for all your work for the gospel. God bless you🙏🏿
You won't be able to fight against demons in Hell.
TRUTH!
AMEN!
exactly!! wow
He is delusional...
The demons will be burning too right?
Ray comfort you teach me to talk to people about all of there's topic so at school I walk around and talk to people about the after life and other thing that you say and most have listed! I been talking to my teacher about this to I just want to say thanks for teach me about it and thanks god for letting me came a cross this channel and God bless you all .
Holy Father in Heaven, move on this mans heart to convict him to repentance and faith in Christ. In Jesus Name, Amen
Our pasta, who art in a colander, draining be your noodles. Thy noodle come, Thy sauce be yum, on top some grated Parmesan. Give us this day our garlic bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trample on our lawns. And lead us not into vegetarianism, but deliver us some pizza, for thine is the meatball, the onion, and the bay leaves, forever and ever. R'Amen.
Forgive them Lord for they know not what they do.
"It is easier for lasagna to pass through the holes of a colander than it is for a rich person to enter Paradise."
Amen!
I really like rays approach and actually think he's got better with age the way he is with people is fair and so lovely
The truth is he loves his sin above all else. I suppose when you are young the prospect of death seems far removed, so in his mind he doesn't care about consequences.
I hear this claim a lot, that it's about "loving sin". Why can't it just be that an individual remains unconvinced of the arguments for Gods existence?
@@ElysianSounds because it is obvious that God exists. If you see a green sign on the free way with white lettering which says Los Angeles 100 miles, common sense tell me there was intelligent design behind that simple road sign. The universe is designed with a marvellous precision. The universe is 13.5 billion light years across in diameter, and this planet earth is exactly at the right spot where it could support life. Read the Creator and the Cosmos by Astronomer Hugh Ross. Dr. James Tour one of America's great scientists on the micro biology level can answer your questions. By the way I'm a Christian and I struggle with sexual sins among other sins. However we have throne of grace, where our sins can be forgiven once acknowledged.
@@e.a.p3174 I am sorry, I am familiar with the argument for design and fine tuning that you are alluding to and it just doesn't hold up
@WorkTillYouDie No, it's about not being convinced as there is no convincing evidence of Gd's existence...
A man being dead in his sin is not age discriminative. All men are hostile towards God until God intervenes and gives them the heart of repentance and the measure of faith.
Blessings to you
The reliance on, belief in and glorification of self is such a prevailing trend I see in a lot of the people Ray witnesses to...It's easier to recognise it when you've been there yourself. So very grateful for God's mercy on me.
Actually adultery CAN be a relationship. I heard a testimony from a woman who was living with a married man who had left his wife to be with her. She became a Christian (I’m not sure if he did too). The church she went to did not put pressure on her to leave him, believing that the Lord would sort the situation out in His way and in His time. She loved this man and could not bear to leave him. The church encouraged her to grow in her relationship with Lord. Through the love of Jesus, after two years, she became able to separate from the married man, and he returned to his wife. It was no easy thing for either, or any, of them. Reading the Bible, I realised God never intended us to experience the agonies of separation. He designed a world without death and sorrow. Marriage was intended to build strong families and a loving, protected, safe environment to bring children into the world. Divorce between parents causes children immense pain.....some commit suicide; I knew a young man who did just that. The Bible says sex was intended to bind people together as one. Separation can be more painful than amputation. It was never God’s will. As we now live in a fallen world, corruption has entered into all kinds of relationships. 1 Corinthians 6:18 says, “Flee sexual immorality..... “. In other words, run for your life! Love is a very precious gift from God, and needs to be handled with great care. This man is someone very special, I hope God will bring him through to salvation and peace.
Divorce is a sin, the only time someone can divorce is because of adultry
Praying for this man, maybe he could bring many with him to eternal life ✝️💫👏🏻
Atheist but uses tarot cards?:0 how does that work
I was thinking the same thing. He is truly a lost soul and I will be praying for the conviction of the Holy Spirit.
He's still looking for hope but left God, he's lost
Easy, i have an atheist friend, she believes (not for fun) that we will be fairies and there is a fairy realm after this. Where do people get these ideas?
@@MattH-nd9qk Wow. Just...wow.
@@smochygrice465 I'm not 100% but I think that Tarot cards are pretty much centered around the spiritual realm and demonic forces. So he would have to believe in some kind of God I would imagine.
So thankful this not only makes total sense it me, but is like a balm over my heart on a tough day...
That just shows how confused and deceived he is by the power of darkness. Only God Himself can "punch him in the nose" and wake him up. And he wants to fight God in hell??? Oh boy...
I would hit the thumb button for the rest of my life Ray Comfort but that is not possible...THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO IN PARTICULAR!
AND THANK YOU GOD FOR SUCH A INSPIRING AND LIFE CHANGING MESSAGES!😇🕊
His stumbling block was homosexuality. He doesn’t want to give it up and justifies it away. I notice whenever Ray brings up an argument that makes sense, blinders come on... defensiveness, laughter....this man places power in men. I pray for him
Exactly!
You cant stop being gay though, I think this mans problem is not being able to accept hell is real and insinuating God is evil because of it.
@@nightshade1732 What's impossible for man is possible for God.
XxX_DarkWolf_XxX Can’t stop being gay? I respectfully disagree. You can stop acting on those desires. Of course it isn’t easy, but all of us have those sins that are harder to overcome. Transformation is entirely what the new birth is about. Our desires change and we no longer are a slave to sin.
@@cherylwells9756 ok your like the second person to respond to me and I tried posting a long response explaining my stance on this but for whatever reason it didnt show, so il just do it in parts then, maybe it'l show, if it dosent then il just look stupid ig but il try if it at all gets people to stop thinking it's a choice or something like that because its not
Lovely tracts! I remember ordering a few years ago
Heart breaking 😔
Yes it is! But hopefully the Lord will do a mighty work in this man:)
I saw a seed... I don't think it was heart breaking.
Ray comfort I will sleep comfortably tonight because of your videos 🥰❤️🙏🏼✨
Lord God, I pray for this man to repent of his sins, and turn to you. Brothas, Sistahs, there is freedom from addiction.
Amen
I'm praying for you Josh re you do a great job thank you 🙏 ❤️🙏
Praying for this Person that his heart becomes softened for the gospel of Jesus Christ. At least the seed is planted and I guess he is in more torment even more now restling with his conscience. He will be redeemed in Christ Jesus hallelujah!!
“Faith comes from hearing the word of God” ~Romans 10:17
Sweet guy. Really pray he comes to know the Good Savior.
He’s very deceived :( we need to pray that God opens his eyes
What man is better than Ray Comfort? I don't know of one. His love for others is so beautiful.
Wow. Oh wow. Please open his eyes, Lord.
Dear Ray, though the gentleman says that he would not think about the conversation, I can say that the encounter would be too interesting to just pass it off for nothing. Not every day one comes across such lively, open and touching conversation. And I firmly believe the Holy Spirit will work His way... it usually starts with a chance encounter in such a place as the one that just happened.
Spanish versions please! I love all this interviews and would like to share it with my family;(
Try showing them videos from this

Hey Ray and all 👋 😊
I’m not sure if you remember me... I was called Matt Mason before! Now I’ve changed my channel name and logo ☺️
Would love your thoughts??
Just checked out your how to get rid of condemnation video and it was excellent! Very honest and genuine, I love the logo and the music is perfect. I'll definitely be back friend!
