- Ray Comfort talks with an atheist and an agnostic. They bring up many different objections, but watch how Ray quickly answers them and goes straight to the gospel, which is all that ultimately matters when we're evangelizing.

I am an EXTREMELY INTROVERTED person but today I'm choosing to go evangelize for the first time at Venice Beach and Santa Monica. Please pray that God leads me to someone who needs to hear the gospel. Also pray that I will have strength and courage to speak up about Jesus Christ.
Good job I pray you bring someone to Christ
God uses people like you Darnell-because they know their weakness and trust only in His strength. God bless you. Ray Comfort
Wow you got a comment from Ray !
God bless you Darnell, and you will be a blessing for others with that spirit and mindset.
Lots of brotherly love to and for you.
❤😊👍
@@shanedarden5238 thank you brother. I love you.
i can't believe ray is 71, i'd have guessed maybe in his 50s. may the good Lord bless him with great health
That's partially because he covers his gray hair with dye.
I think he's said he's turning 72 soon, also (I forgot).
Woah
Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name. Amen.
@@briannk3720 What's that supposed to do?
I asked Jesus into my heart at 10yrs old and he's still there.
Aww. With repentance too hopefully x
The Bible says we simply must believe He died for our sins. Asking Him into your heart is an outward showing that you believe that, but it could also be done without belief. Either way, it's the belief that saves us!
@@drewk8 hey Andrew I struggle with this even though it sounds simple , is to believe simply the feeling that Deep down in my heart I believe That Jesus died for our sins if I feel that deep in my soul is that believing ? Or is it more of a thought in the mind ?
@@festy111 if you believe in your mind that Jesus died for your sins personally, that is enough. The evidence of that is your desires will be towards God. Another word for desire in the Bible is "heart" which is where we get the idea of asking Jesus into our hearts. When we simply believe, He changes our hearts/desires to now *care* about pleasing Him. We find that we now want to learn about Him so we read the Bible out of that desire. We find now that we want to worship Him so we attend church out of that desire. So you see these things are not done for fear of going to Hell or to look like a good person on the outside. They are done because God has *made* us into a good person and so now we have a heart for Him. Make sense?
@@festy111 good question
The scripture for that would be found in Romans 10
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Romans 10:9-13
My girlfriend is atheist and I've been teaching her the stories and meanings behind Christianity and my relationship with. I've have showed her through my actions and my commitment to save sex after marriage. She has been very understanding. When I first met her she was very defensive about hearing about God. Now she asks me questions about God and my Christian faith. She is a nurse and has some Christian patients asking her to read the Bible to her... I keep praying for her and I honestly have seen God work wonders in opening her heart and ears to Him. Please pray for her. She grew up Catholic, and her mother is Christian... but she was attracted to Buddhism a few years ago... (she's not Buddhist, just curious about it). Her name is Joy. Please pray for her.
How's your girlfriend now? :)
Thank you for protecting her body - and yours. So unusual and unselfish these days!
Prayers for her salvation. 🙏🏼
Hello David, I hope your doing well with your journey with Joy.
My advice is to inform when she asks, and try not to be condescending with your answers. GOD will do the rest.
Great job on saving yourself for marriage!!!
Praying...
I kid you not I had rashes all over my body for *years* and I cried out to God to heal me I couldn’t take it anymore, and it instantly stopped itching and overnight it was GONE praise be to the Lord! I’ve seen many other prayers answered there’s no doubt the healing and miracles in the Bible are true God is good!
Glory to God! 🙏🏻
Isn't he Amazing, blessed be you🥰🕊
Yes, sometimes Im also stunned by Gods answered prayers. Sometimes ive been responded instantly. Wow!
I know 4 people who desperately need healing right now. If anyone’s faith is strong enough & you’re willing, please pray for them. Part of their story is on Twitter under @BrianMonzon their is a GoFundMe me account with a boy who has a photo of a boy’s face smiling with bright green roundtuits covering his eyes (for privacy). I’m not asking for anything more than prayer!
Praise God!
Not gonna lie, the first 5 seconds of the video I was really worried. "They got Ray too!?!?!" Censorship and persecution are coming folks, buckle up and stand on the Word.
Same.
HOWEVER, we can safely assume that EVERY piece of Christian content and EVERY Christian channel WILL BE deleted from the Internet after Jesus Christ raptures His Church.
Soon and very soon...

That was weird. Wonder if Ray did that or is it something to come?

What is Jesus’s his church? Where can I find it?
Prayed to receive Christ into my heart at 16 years old age. I am now 65. Christ is still there as He has promised that He will never leave me nor forsake me. 😊
Amen, God bless you brother.
Thank you for your testimony ❤
Please pray for me as I keep doubting my salvation
@@mabelrobertson8337 will right this minute and u are not alone, look out for Jesus showing u he's there!
Was same for me
@@mabelrobertson8337 Have no doubt sister just trust in Jesus and his sacrifice. He has never ending love for you and will never forsake you. He wont forget a single one of his sheep when the time comes for his return. If you feel any doubt read his word and it will reassure you. God bless you and your family, be safe
Praise the L0rd G0d Almighty!. I magnify your name!. Yahweh I give you all the glory for my life!. Forgive my sins and my unconfessed sins L0rd!. L0rd I want more of you and less of me!.

I release love, kindness, patience, humility in the name 0f Jesus!. I followed my heart and I am glad I did. I l0st my wife 2 years ag0 due t0 the pandemic and I was about giving up, knowing G0d has brought me this far was for a purpose and I kept on looking on to him. My destiny helper was sent t0 me the year my wife died. The moment I was about giving up, I was introduced to a business by a man I met at a seminar I went to at Florida. This was not my first time hearing of such business but I took the risk Investin 1000 USD and it was worth it information@markhanfarmer., COM , 4 weeks later I kept on getting earnings and I started using the m0ney for G0ds work. I am very popular in Mississippi. Doing G0ds work gives me J0y and peace in my mind. I am here to motivate y0u t0 never give up even though the situation seems s0 t0ugh,. G0d has pr0mised his children and he will surely d0 what he pr0mised.
The Bible says that everyone knows that God is real. The base problem is, people love their sin more than they love God. So to protect their sin, they reject the truth that is right before them.
God help us to accept your free gift and to be changed from the inside out
True. The title of this video is obviously false though. Pretty weird.
@@annasthoughtsandmusicalpar2239 well, I'm not sure that it is false. After all, it is the grace of God through salvation that saves us. Amd we don't get that grace by asking Jesus into our hearts as much as we receive it when we believe, end our rebellion against Him, and follow Him. But I guess a person could call that asking Jesus into your heart.
@@billobrien4761 Yeah, I was just thrown off, because to me inviting Jesus into your heart goes hand-in-hand with confessing your sins and your need for salvation.
@@annasthoughtsandmusicalpar2239 if only everyone felt the same way! Ive met so many people who call themselves Christians but do not follow. I used to be one of those people. So many people don't realize that Christian means to follow Christ.
I asked Jesus into my heart and He came in. There’s more to it than just saying come in. There is repentance , there is trust in His sacrifice. But as many as received Him to them He gave eternal life.
I got saved by asking Him into my heart... along with genuine repentance all wrapped up in believing on Him. The sinners prayer isnt in the bible, but all the principles are. So if u come before God with a repentant, contrite heart, u absolutely can get saved by asking Him into ur heart. I did and my life was flipped on its head in an instant! I saw the living God apon salvation.
@@jocampbell88 Amen brother, nicely put !!!
But what if a broken christian has an addiction it's not easy to Repent just because christians say so.
@@jocampbell88 what about Romans 10:9-10,13?
@@khaoss1846 what about Romans 10:9-10,13?
I am a selfish person, always in a hurry and I don't want to slow down and "see" other people. I mind my business and feel afraid at times and shy at times. But God is changing my heart. He's changing my heart to "see" others, that they are perishing. So with shaky knees at times and awkwardness I am slowly starting to "see" others. Sometimes I find myself saying some of the things Ray comfort does and sometimes I just call the name of the cashier and tell them God loves them and I hope they read the cartoon that I give them. I purchase the tracts from Living Waters. One step at a time. I just look at God and say, "More please." 😊 It really started with recognizing the times we're living in and crying out to the Lord to change me. Ray is an inspiration. Thank you.
Same here, Mary. When I was very young, I used to 'see' people, and wondered why we were not ( as a body of believers) reaching out to them. Then I just accepted the notion, I"ll live my life, and they can live theirs. Now....I am seeing. If I really believe those without Christ are going to Hell, how can I NOT tell them? As Ray says, if you see someone about to walk off a cliff, wouldn't you try to save them? So....like you, I am pushed out of my shell. Reading more, studying more, praying more. May God help us recall His word, give us desire to learn, and desire to get outside our comfort zones.
Amen 🙏 let Jehova turn us into bold evangelist who have an answer for the difficult questions the world has. I want to be brave🙏♥️
@@annb.2721 When you said recall his word you hit the nail on the head too many churches teach their people to rehearse scripture to try to change hearts but when God's spirit gives you the right words to speak it won't fall on deaf ears but when we try to outsmart people with scripture it always fails.
When you do slow down and "see" others, sometimes you can see them for who they are before talking to them.
I've seen fake homeless angels (men pretending to be homeless and pretending to be angelic), Street theater clowns pretending to be broken.
There are a lot of actors out there and they're easy to identify
I beg to differ. My mom hated Christianity. Then she said Jesus, if you are real, come into my heart and he totally changed her life. She loved the Bible prayer going to Christian school, witnessing, playing gospel piano.
Jesus Christ is my Savior and Lord!
According to Jesus : FATHER IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD.
According to most Christians: Father is god, Jesus is god and the holy spirit is god !!!
What went wrong with Christians after Jesus?
@@petelarosa282 So for salvation you trust other people's words rather than Jesus's own words?

😇😎☺😀🙏☝👏👍👍✌✌
@Nolan Merck come under the blood sacrifice of Jesus
@Nolan Merck
You may have had a heart of repentance, but telling people that is completely misleading. It’s also not the gospel. Jesus never told anyone to ask him into there heart. The call is to repent and believe. The call is to come die. That’s it.
Amen!🙏🏼
Amen 😁
I asked Jesus to come into my heart at Summer Camp when I was 8. I felt the Holy Spirit then, and I still do now.
@BradynLee Yup, and when I think back, I cant think of a time, I never believed in God. I'll be 56 next Month. I had doubts, moments where I question, but I ultimately come back to the same answer.
@@timorean320 God is good. Be greatful that you never went astray or your love fell cold. I personally became a lukewarm Christian for about a decade. I never stopped believing in Him but I should have progressed and never did and never saw the reason why I should. I never saw the significance of sin, and thus never repented from it. Thankfully God brought me back to church a year ago, and I recommitted myself to Him sometime last year. God really is good. Even typing this I feel a comfortable heat in my core that I have come to know as God comforting me. God bless you Tim, may we strive to live blameless for the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
@@FreeSpeechAbsolutist1776 Goodness, thank you so much. I havent been perfect by far, but I can honestly say, I dont remember a time I didnt believe in God. It wasnt forced, I just always felt it. Almost 50 years later, I have came a long way. Much time, study effort to show myself approved, and live, breath, be in that Spirit every day. You made my day. Our God is more loving, and forgiving than we can imagine, and I can literally feel your love for him in your words. Dont be too hard on yourself, we are all works in progress. Stay the course, stay in his word, and stay sweet. God bless YOU.
@@timorean320 Amen. Thank you as well for your kind words, they uplift me greatly.
@@FreeSpeechAbsolutist1776 15 years ago, I lost my oldest Son. You want to talk about a test, well, I was on brink. I prayed, like "this is it" I need your help now, or I dont know what I'm gonna do. He came. That experience, changed me forever. I dont know why I'm sharing it now, I dont talk about it much for obvious reasons, but looking back, I find it crazy, that the worst thing to ever happen to me, made me such a better person. I know what's important, I express my love appreciation for family, friends, I take nothing for granted. I realized nobody, nothing is "mine". We are all just on loan, so be good to each other, and love, that's the secret of Life, love. You are stronger than you know. A child of the living God. I see your beauty, without seeing your face. I mean that. Stay strong, you got this.
Asked Jesus to come into my heart 4 years ago, poured out my heart to him in repentance and he took away years of mental chaos, nightmares, depression, anxiety, debilitating fear, demonic influence and oppression (and all that that had with it), addictions, anger... But now I'm free!! And I have peace!! And joy!! And I'm alive!! And I love my lord and saviour jesus christ💙God is real, very real, and I am completely different person now. I'm not living in torment anymore, praise God
What a great loving God we serve ❤!!
Amen 🙏🏽
How long did it take for you to recover from all these awful things?
Thank you for sharing of yourself. Loved it.❤❤❤
Now I find myself in that situation where you were exactly before, I have accepted Jesus and I pray that He comes into my life and heals me from all that chaos, but nothing happens, could you help me as you did. Thanks, I'm in real torture. Thanks again for answering.
The guy in the Maiden shirt was open and had genuine questions. Praying that God softens his heart and he comes to Jesus
If I'm not wrong, his eyes had tears at the end of the evangelism, when Ray talked about his sons. He seemed truly receptive to Ray's preaching at that point. Hope that God softens his heart as well.
@@AndrewL4me why this rude answer dude? Or did I misinterpreted it?
We don't even know the guy, and if you saw the video, that's exactly what Ray did.
If you're a Christian, you probably know that satisfying his intellect with carnally evidences won't produce faith in him. And Ray always says that his purpose is not to give what those people's flesh want. Actually sometimes he gives evidence and people simply won't accept it. If you're not a christian, I'd say that there ir plenty of evidence, just search for yourself in google. Historical and archeological artefacts that confirms biblical history, the reliability of the new testament, the extra biblical sources that talks about Christ and his followers, etc.
@@AndrewL4me Atheism can't be proven either, and opens people up to the belief that nothing created everything. That atoms starts to pop and mix to each other and then molecules emerge out of that and those molecules randomly unite themselves to create complex living beings. What's rational about atheism, my friend? This is a greater miracle than a talking snake or talking donkey, especially if you add in the equation that an almighty God can do WHATEVER He wants; things we cannot even conceive in our minds.
@@AndrewL4me keep believing that to self mislead you. A lack of belief that God exists is nothing more than a belief that God doesn't exist. This "mental juggling" as we would say here, only serves for you atheists to convince yourselves. There ain't philosophically such thing as a lack of belief. A lack of belief doesn't say anything. Many great apologists have already refuted this known fallacy. Atheism is a worldview as any religion, my friend.
Why is it so hard to believe that the creator of the universe and the races and kinds did what is said in the Bible. Our Lord is Amazing!
Cuz they were indoctrinated by the world not to believe in anything not proven by science. How the tables have turned cuz now it's about feelings.
Because it requires FAITH , which is given as a gifted by GOD to his ELECT.
The devil has blinded them and man's hardened heart
Agreed. How can you explain all this if there’s no God. It’s impossible.
@@richardthompson927
If that's the case then only 144,000 will be saved because that's the number amount of the 'Elect'.
I asked Jesus into my heart at 12 and again a few times over the years because I never felt changed. In my 20's, I had the thought I was lukewarm, but I thought, "I go to church every week, I pray twice a day, and I listen to Christian music on the radio. I'm fine." Fast forward to 41
I was divorced and living with my soon-to-be second husband. God woke me up to the times we are living in (end times) and said, "You are lukewarm. Get hot, or I will spit you out." I got hot. I cleared out a closet, put a pillow and blanket in there, and made time every day to pray and read the Bible. God gave me His precious Holy Spirit and changed me. I didn't know that there was anything more to the Christian life than talking to the ceiling. Now I have a real-live two-way relationship with the Living God. I'm weary of that "Jesus prayer" as a tool of evangelism. Ray Comfort has the right idea.
do you seriously rely on reading Scripture for salvation? or your faith?
@@aran4122 My comment was my testimony about the many things I did when God came for me. I said saying the "sinner's prayer" isn't a guarantee of a relationship. You sound angry, but I'm not sure why.
@@nolongerlukewarm4423 do you rely on works to "feel saved"? or do you feel saved because you've put your faith in Christ. God forbid, if you died today, are you 100% sure you'd go to Heaven? Why?

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.”
Proverbs 9:10
Ain't that the truth! My goodness, I was just thinking about that verse a few weeks ago! 🙏
@Spite Knight how do you know that to be true? What's your belief?
@Spite Knight he gave us the tools to protect ourselves. Because of free will humans make human choices. We can’t force people to do right no one can not even God that’s apparent look at the world. Some people know God and still choose not to obey. We have the tools and humanity still chooses the wrong.
@Spite Knight We failed ourselves for not listening to him and believing the devil's lies. He blames us and Satan for sinning since we chose to, for he told us the consequences of the action. God plans to reconcile/redeem us and finish satan as he knew he would. If God was truly Loving he wouldn't force his creation to love him. Rather he'd gave us free Will to experience him and make choices. Choices have consequences good or bad.
@Spite Knight you're confusing me with someone else when you asked that question. Not necessarily he wanted us to know it but with his guidance, not by our own. They knew it was wrong but didn't know how bad/severe it would become. He didn't kill Satan for there was still use for him since God can see the outcomes, and make good lessons/outcomes from them. Sin was now entered into the world making it corrupt. Yes he did kill parts of humanity to prove his seriousness of sin, justice, and to prevent sin becoming so rampant.
“Every person who’s a born again Christian has experienced the supernatural” YES!!!! When I get in to prayer I feel like my chest and heart within feels like icy hot
I feel a weight when I pray in the spirit and secret garden. Garments of praise for the spirit of heaviness, since I had never gotten any reward or praise for my dedication hard work or even a promotion the lord gave me the Victor's crown and offered me a new job serving him as his appointed gatekeeper and what he called a shadow warrior a ninja or scout that reports the enenies targets and sometimes warns others of their moves, i was just so overjoyed and almost leaped out of my apartment when I experienced this ❤😇 I felt the fire and ice of the holy spirit when I got baptized in the spirit, the inside of my body felt like it was on fire 🔥 but not burning or tormenting. Now if I see people arguing over promotions status or women and wealth I just laugh 😅. Their's nothing this world can offer me.
100%. Every time i feel the presence of the holy spirit i start getting chills all up and down my body and start crying. Im a grown man with quite good control of my emotions but nothing beats the love and appreciation i feel when i think about Jesus and his sacrifice
You can't lose your salvation. It's a gift from God the Heavenly Father.
This is true in the true sense but foolish if you don't elaborate. If you truly truly believe you have salvation and yet still choose sin (and know in your heart that you're not contrite in repentance) then you've fooled yourself into believing you had salvation when in fact, you never had it in the first place. Once you let hubris take over and you think you are saved, that is far from the end of it. In fact, now that you are informed and not ignorant, turning back to sin is even more damning for your soul. You harden your heart and then God will harden it for you. Faith in your salvation is good, but faith without works is dead. Meaning, if you believe you are saved yet still act in the world according to sin, you are dead and will never have eternal life.
Don't do that intro again my heart literally stopped 😭😭😭
One day, we will be called criminals, we won't be allowed to talk about the name of Jesus, just like it is in India and China. If we still hold on, we will see our Savior.

"I know that your parents love you, they're praying for you. You're a prodigal son enjoying the pig's food" thank you Ray 😭😭😭 that is soooo true. Thank God for anyone who will witness to my son and all the other sons in the world. This was a blessing to me. Although I'm still in tears. Thank you.
Not quite. The prodigal son considered eating the pigs food. He never actually did it.
Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that he sent his son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and he rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless! ✝️🙏🏼⛪️
And also, He doesn’t want you to go to Hell but he wants you to go to Heaven with him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved!
1. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins.
2. Believe that God sent His Son (Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that he rose again from the dead 3 days later.
3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for him to be your Lord and Savior forever.
4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus and Live for Him Forever.
I’m Praying for you and you are loved!
Marsha, please pray God use my novel to reach the fallen sons of the world in their language at their pace.
@@gunsquawk4443 that’s the thing though. We’re worse than the prodigal son in a sense. We eat that pig food with no regrets but when God finally opens our eyes to him and reveals himself to us we can never truly go back to that pig food. He will always convict us if we try to go back and believe me we go back haha. He loves us that much.
It's been a week back since I have started seeing your videos it's really very good,, I'm so much encouraged to go and do ministry, I'm very eager with hunger and thirst, to give God's word to everyone but now I'm very happy,, I actually can't go out to spread the Gospel,, because I have a granddaughter to take care, she is five years old,,, but i keep praying for the lost sheep, God bless you Rey, thank you so much😊
Thank you thank you thank you! I was 24 when i asked Jesus into my heart but was never born again...i am 62 now and was truely born again 10 years ago when i realized i was a sinner through God's love ..He found me and brought me back to Him ..Thank you Lord!🙏🏻

Seeing Ray’s example makes me feel like I should be doing more.
Well, we all should. We’re covered by the amazing grace of God, but yes, we should definitely be doing more to reach out to people. Wretched and Cross Examined are also great channels for evangelism, Cold-Case Christianity too!
Living Waters has some of the best gospel tracts. Maybe start there if you’re not already giving them out.
Me too! I just don't know what to do and how to approach reaching people. I try to bring it up on conversation and I get ignored.
One Arsenal,

It's a challenge but must do something that reaches out for the Gospel that's our Earthly command from Jesus after all.

But he never gave up repenting, every time he fell short he turned back to God.
He literally threw himself at Gods mercy. You just have to read the book if Psalms to feel the passion he had for God.
We are flesh, born of sin and all fall short of the Glory of God.
Jesus paid that prize.
Keep turning back to Jesus.
He knows your heart ❤️
When we let fear stop us from witnessing to others we’re saying our fear is more important than their salvation.
This is so powerful.
I’m not talking about that type of fear.
Do you not understand what fear I’m talking about?
a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid.
Sorry, but I’m confused why you don’t understand what fear talking about?
I once thought the same way that guy did, “all i gotta do is accept Jesus into my heart and i can do whatever” but once the fear of God came into my heart i was radically set free from bondage of sin. Thank you Ray for your videos, without them I wouldn’t be the Christian i am today. God Bless❤️
Colby. . Yes. The fear of God has alot to do with it. I too, got the fear of God and got saved that day. Every day since has been the same: looking to and loving my Lord Jesus, grateful for what He did, looking forward to going home, slipping, falling, getting up and trusting in the Lord.
@@AndrewL4me Stand on the edge of a cliff and dance around in peace. It is wise to have some healthy apprehension.
What about the thief on the cross?
@@sincerelyCdubs . . What about him?
I thought he meant he had trouble with someone just believing they could receive Jesus even though they "had sinned" murdered, whatever before they were saved. I've come across people that think that they shouldn't be saved if they just repent of their sins and receive Jesus. Even though they really mean it. They think that a person should still pay for their sin and go to hell anyway. I've only watched half of this interview and don''t know what the interviewer means.
I confess the more I watch Ray the more I realise I am a sinner !
I was a heathen but when I said God here I am show me your real I’m here asking you. He showed himself to me and it was like I saw a movie reel flash before my eyes of all the Dirt I’ve done and man I fell to my knees and was humbled quick it was supernatural. 🙏🏽
Jesus is King 👑 we are to proud for our own good. Forgive us Lord.
Not quite how it works. We don't have the authority to ask God to prove himself to us. He has already proved Himself time and time again through His Holy Word. Remember, God doesn't need us, we need God. Make sure you haven't received a counterfeit. Repent, and asked Him to be your savior. That's the ONLY way. God bless you.
Jesus Christ is Lord and King 🤴 YES
Amen! Thank you for the testimony!
I sin and I know is very hard for my flesh to stop sinning
I ask Jesus Lord to forgive me
And have mercy .

@@sneijder023 not one is righteous. Your “proper” faith is vanity. Look.
Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.-Romans 10:1-4
Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this Man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: and by Him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets; Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.-Acts 13:38-41
Which of the two did what his father wanted?" "The first," they answered. Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you.-Mathew 21:31
To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people-robbers, evildoers, adulterers-or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’ “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’ “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” -Luke 18:9-14
If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. For He shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.-James 2:8-13
But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.-Mathew 5:28
Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.-Galatians 5:4-5
@@JR-yj8ig shalom brother. So obedience is sin? What is the evidence of real saving faith? I am not saved because I guard YHVHs commands I guard His commands BECAUSE of my salvation. Yashua IS the Living Torah. He FULFILLED Torah( fully filled it) this is not an END or in no way does away with it. Yeshua said so himself. Yeshua being the end of Torah means He literally fulfilled it. Otherwise we couldn't have salvation. Yeshua didn't keep Abbas commands so we don't have to. That's obsurd and unscriptural. He kept Torah because we couldn't keep it to perfection. And YHVHs standard is perfection. Just like the scripture you quoted says that if we keep Torah but stumble even just one time in one command we are guilty of death penalty and hell fire. Well Yeshua DIDN'T stumble even in one area but fully filled Torah thereby taking away the PENALTY of sin(transgression of Torah) for those that BELIEVE. Believe means to hear AND obey. It comes from the Hebrew word SHEMA. Believe is an action word (verb) and must have evidence(works, yes works). We are called into good works. Be not deceived. We cannot continue in willful sin(transgressing torah) and obtain YHVHs grace. We are commanded to repent of our sins. Remember we are not saved by works and by boasting and that also includes boasting about our declaration that we are saved. We cannot save ourselves so declaring one's own salvation is boasting. We are not saved by our boasting in ANYTHING we've done including declaring we are saved. Only YHVH can save us and only if we are covered by His Son Yeshuas blood. remember salvation is for those who endure till the end. The book Yeshua quoted most was deuteronomy. Deuteronomy is where the commands of The Most High are written. Yeshua commanded us to guard His Father YHVHs commands. His commands are NOT BURDENSOME. unless u think it is a burden to not kill or not commit adultery or to love your neighbor or to not covet etc. It's MANMADE laws and traditions that are the burden. Mark 7 talks clearly about this. We must endure. May YaH give us all eyes to see and ears to hear and may He forgive us daily as we repent daily of our transgressions. Shalom
It is NOT wrong to ask Christ into your heart, it is up to the one who does the asking... if they are sincere with God or not. If they are sincere then He will come into those who seek him and a real relation can start. Jesus said: 20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Rev. 3:10
Jeremiah 29:12-14 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.
Amen.
@Oliver Swannick II I can’t find where I said what you say I said. But I know all about struggles with sin believe me! So I would never ever put anyone down just by that. I have confessed sins with tears so so many times to God. Maybe it’s the post where I used some sarcasm to make a point?
We can argue and debate doctrines all day until the week after next Tuesday but unless we have charity which is the bond of perfectness, it’s all useless. We are just as lost as we can be if we have no love that is not of ourselves but of God. That’s the best and most accurate sign that someone has truly been born again is if they love everyone. Gods love is shed abroad in their heart.
@@Lisa-hm2mp 🤗🤗🤗
You need to read the whole chapter and not pick and choose verses. Rev. 3:19 it says REPENT. “Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline [showing them their faults and instructing them]; so be enthusiastic and repent [change your inner self-your old way of thinking, your sinful behavior-seek God’s will]. Behold, I stand at the door [of the church] and continually knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him (restore him), and he with Me. He who overcomes [the world through believing that Jesus is the Son of God], I will grant to him [the privilege] to sit beside Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down beside My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear and heed what the Spirit says to the churches.’ ””
Revelation 3:19-22 AMP
I think that’s a pretty good description for how salvation came to me. I felt convicted, repented, and opened my heart to Jesus. After I’d cried and prayed, I got to my feet and felt an incredible peace wash over me
That IS it, it really is that simple people make it more complicated than it really is. I myself even though I have been saved for years make it complicated, when I have gone through periods of doubt I mentally dissect all of the events leading up to me kneeling and asking the Lord to save me, I nitpick and search for any reason at all why the Lord may have not actually saved me that day, I do this until I am in state of constant fear and confusion but the reality of the situation is more simple than my mind makes it out to be, we naturally find it difficult to believe that something so important can be so simple, I give praise to the Lord for leading me through these times of trouble.

The words of John the Baptist speaking of Jesus who by believing on his death, burial and resurrection and through the power of the Holy Spirit will save us if we earnestly seek him, water baptism is a representation of the spiritual baptism that we as Christians undergo the moment that Christ saves us, water baptism itself does not save a person.
Salvation came for me when I was at the peek of my life from a worldly perspective having the highest paid job I've ever had at a top 150 company, no debt, no responsibilities, and an easy life. Yet I was lost and broken spiritually and I knew it and realized I could not do it on my own any more. I didn't know for sure what was out there but I surrendered and gave my life and stopped trying to do it all myself. That's when God came for me and I met Jesus. In my apartment by myself, never read a bible, never been to church. God showed me how much he loves me. I felt the love of God filling my soul. I began crying for 24 hours straight and repenting of all the horrible things I'd done in life which the Holy Spirit was bringing up to me. I've never been the same. Praise God! Thank you Jesus!

@ The Saurus, actually the story of a man being swallowed by a whale is NOT so hard to believe any more. There was a incident of it happening in the 1800’s and more recently 2 other cases of divers being swallowed by a whale! Of course the purpose in Jonah’s case was spiritual, to fulfill God’s will in getting the fleeing prophet to obey his command to go preach unto the city of Nineveh AND to be a prophesy/sign of the son of God resurrecting from the dead!

Common sense tells everyone that Christ has ever put under conviction to repent because we’re given a new heart. Then YES we do ask Jesus Christ to come into our hearts so he can sup with us daily. It’s written in Revelation.
KTTGHMTJWYCBLAC I specifically said that anyone would repent whom God puts under conviction. I think you may underestimate the power of God and who he may call upon. Paul was one of the most unlikely people thousands of years ago that anyone would have thought could do any good for God. He turned out to be one of the best prophets spoken of in the Bible. That’s why God said: in John 6:44 No man can come to me except the Father draw him: and I will raise him up on the last day.
You tried to explain to me what it meant for Jesus to come in and sup with us. Now let’s see what God says it means.
John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
Anyone that has been drawn by the Father believer or nonbeliever like Paul was, they still become a new creature with a new heart. Why do you think he tells us to pray for the lost souls in this world? Yes I know the gate that leads to eternal damnation is wide, and the the gate to eternal life is narrow. So, more are doomed than not.
Just know that I meant the Father can call on anyone to fulfill his purpose. And that Jesus Christ is the life the bread is the word. So, when anyone faithfully opens that door to their heart then they will be made fat in the knowledge and wisdom of God’s word. It is him that feeds the heart, mind, and soul. It’s just up to us to seek and listen with a sound mind, and a humble heart.

Yes, we must accept what Christ did for us on the cross and trust in Him for Salvation and of course, to repent and turn to Him. Each day, we are to pick up our cross and follow JESUS! I have to realize that my Lord has paid for my sins, but also to not take any of that for granted!
To Dave and the other gentleman, this community loves you and is praying 🙏 for your salvation. God Bless 🙌 🙏 ❤️ You both. I love seeing the light of truth ✨️ 💛 😍 come into people's eyes. God Blesz you Ray and may God gives you many, many more years. 🙏
I think you really got that older guy thinking about his eternity !
Ray you know persecution is not coming but here and will increase. I want you to know I'm so incredibly proud of you and proud to one day be in heaven with you. God bless you!
Please list the persecutions that you have personally suffered, to enlighten us all. Are are you simply squealing about nothing?
@@solentbum I wouldn't say anything physically has happened nor would I play victim if it ever did so that's not the point of this comment. I have never seen in social media such hatred for God and the mockery of God and Jesus is on another level. I spent a significant amount of time before becoming a Christian with a psychic and witnessed some pretty crazy witchcraft, sure I can't prove that to an athiest but it's real and definitely on a huge increase.( Stating that as people don't want the Gospel as its rejected and they want their own for of spirituality that pleases them and a familiar spirit offers that). If you look at the many changes globally in the church homosexuality is being on a huge push to be accepted and we could one day see if you don't accept this or teach this doctrine you can't preach, you've seen that with Ray himself as people have mentioned the Pope is okay with it so it has to be right. It's not that Christians are being forced yet to do much but the hatred for God and anything that resembles the true Gospel is mocked and hated so that is the main extent so far. The beginning of the video mentioned sensorship and many are facing this for stating in a professional way their views. The silencing of Christianity and the true Gospel is the start but I'm proud and thankful to God for how he is moving because I've had alot of witnessing opportunities lately. Those who respond to Gods calling for restored relationship with their creator through Jesus Christ have a great opportunity because so many Christians and even non Christians know thing are way different than it's ever been so today is the day to put your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ!
@@cj6814 Sorry but may I ask for examples of 'silencing of Christianity' . You have a Constitution that guarantees freedom of speech , and a new President that converted a simple swearing in ceremony into a virtual religious service. You have a myriad of Christian run radio and TV stations , and Tax free status for any 'church' that claims it.
Freedom of speech runs both ways, but I trust that you are able to accept that there is a difference between 'free speech' and speech that is threatening , abusive or demeaning and that sometimes there is a need for compromise in all of our views as we respect the views of others.
There's countries you can't be a Christian because it's not allowed and what I'm trying to direct your view towards is this hatred is bringing the percussion. Truly the worst I've experienced is mockery on a incredible high level but that is the worst so I'm not playing victim but every time you go to share your faith there's a good chance you'll get mocked because of the day we live in. There was a really popular comedian that made a viral video stating there's many ways to heaven and there's many platforms promoting and supporting this, something like that is making a strong statement that this is where we are headed and every chance someone who hates the Gospel they bring up either Christians need to conform to this way or they often make terrible arguments like stating the prosperity Gospel is all of Christianity which they know there is Pastor struggling to get through these difficult time holding on for their Faith in God when the doors are closed and tiths are lessened due to lack of attendance but then there's this we need to tax the church when the church had their doors closed and people really point to a preacher with a plane and say, see, look, this is what they are all after. You want proof of percussion go to a social media platform and in a respectful way state you are pro life and that it is a life and there is no moral justification for it to be ended and you'll see what I'm talking about. It's never a proof thing it's a conscious thing. If you take a class of middle school/ highschool kids and showed them a abortion on the TV screen and then you stated that's scientifically not a life just cells most likely none of them would agree with you but through conditioning people have learned it is the moral thing to offer. If you have a baby and you and your spouse are in love with it, promised to never let anything bad happened to it and some people out to harm came up and said hand it over you would overcome all fear regardless of the consequences because you know it's the only honorable right thing to do is to protect this with your very life but a number of months earlier you'd let a complete stranger go in and separate it piece by piece or poison it. Plenty of bad things happen in this world and that just points to we are the evil ones in need of a perfect Savior but in sight of that abortion is never the answer. You can't say it's medically needed because many have come against that as God has made natural delivery the safest, you can't say it's helping the people who have had awful things happen to them because as much as it breaks my heart to see things like that happen it doesn't relive the pain and anger of what has been done to them and now they have a abortion on their concious every year that birthday comes around they have to think about both incidences and I mean this with every bit of sincerity, that is a heartbreaking tragedy.... But even people who have had an abortion and has stated this regret, they get no news media and they get silenced. You might say well it should be their right to choose but the young girl scared out of her mind I fear will be pressured to make a decision that they will regret later in life. I'm saying all this to point out persecution comes from the mockery of a world who will go against the God given conscious to the point of saying they don't have one and will mock those who bend their knee to the truth and want to do what is right even when it's hard.
@@solentbum Go to China or the middle east or parts of Africa and to a lesser degree Europe and France and Canada and you'll see the persecution and restrictions. Cancel culture is getting out of hand, just look at all the firings and people not getting jobs because they question the fairness of the election or they are pro Trump or they don't agree with the so called "woke culture" but embrace Christian moral and conservative values.
Amen. I love how you approach everyone with such ease and love with the truth. God had purpose you with such. God continue to bless you
Lord Jesus please come into my heart I need you Lord, pleas forgive my sins and give me peace in my heart, please save my soul, give me joy in my heart
I prayed a7 second prayer and my life changed for ever god talks if you will listen I was a drug addict on a overdose god came and brought me out been off drugs 52 years still go to church feel the awesome presence of the living god
@richard barrick If that is evidence of god, then a person who recovers from alcoholism and is a non believer, is evidence of no God. Believing one and not the other, is a violation of the three logical absolutes.
@@blwblw8939 yeah people can stop taking drugs or alcohol without God, it's 10x harder but i'm sure an unbeliever can do it
@@davidkermott7231 How do you arrive at it being 10x harder?
I’m so touched by these two you interviewed, and it’s like your love for them hit them in their heart
What a blessing Mr Comfort. Is to the gospel.
Ray Comfort I have been watching your Living Waters videos for over a year. There's a group of Evangelists that I have recently been studying the gospel and and handing out tracts with. I ordered some tracts from Living Waters and I have the Evidence bible. My wife also has the Evidence bible. The issue I am having is that when I try to share the word of God with others, I freeze. I get tongue twisted and all the scripture and videos I've seen and asked God to incorporate into my being seems to leave me.I want prayer from the Christian world to our heavenly Father to boost my confidence and help me to get the message of the gospel out and to bring people in this world to God the Father and to Jesus.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Is it just me or is Ray leading this man astray by telling him Jesus isn’t the way?
@J C he says it right after he quoted Romans 6:23 (time 9:00-9:05)
🔵🔻 Read Matthew-7: 20, 21 & 22:
Keep in mind that Jesus was an orthodox Jew and lived by the laws of the 'Holy Scriptures' ('The Old Testament').
The Holy Scriptures says, (and I paraphrase): It Is by a man's works that you shall know him, for in light of Deeds, words are like chaff and fall worthlessly from the mouth.
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
This guy is wicked devil. He's a repent of your sins for salvation type. False prophet on his way to hell.
I loved both these guys and both of the interviews Ray. For an Atheist and an Agnostic I'm surprised with how open both of them were when you were interviewing them. Less judgemental than the strereotypical atheists and agnostics! A breath of fresh air. Good job guys!
I think it's cos the holy spirit was speaking to them & they realised the words that they were hearing was truth.
It's cause not all Atheist and Agnostics are close-minded edgelords
I’ve been watching your videos for awhile and I’m a believer. Definitely feel the Holy Spirit tugging at me to evangelize. Your videos have been helpful on ways to go about it but the book at the end seems very intriguing. Thank you and God bless!
I almost changed videos after seeing the intro. I'm glad I waited and kept watching.
Confess with your mouth and believe with your heart ❤️....that easy.
Example my cousin was telling me he wasn't sure if he was saved!!!! I quoted this verse and told him it's up to you if you're saved (yes only Jesus can save) either you believe or not. Not feeling worthy and questioning your salvation is two separate things.
I guess no one knows for sure until it's all said and done.
@@Kelle0284 You can know that you are saved if you have repented and live a life that follows Christ, bearing fruit.
Matthew 7:21 " Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord" will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."
If you are disciple yo will read His words and follow His commands and bear much fruit. Galatians 5:22 " But the fruit of the Holy Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, self-control..."
@@mkaealc AMEN!
@@mkaealc yep I agree, it's scary if you put your heart in it
@@Kelle0284 Revelation 3:20 says that Jesus Christ is standing and knocking at the door of your heart/life, wanting to come in. If you in sincerity and humility invite Him to come in, He surely will, and you will feel His presence get inside you, bringing peace and joy into your inner being, and you will know for sure.
