The "Give Me An Answer" ministry began as an outgrowth of the dialogues Cliffe Knechtle has had with students on various university campuses throughout the United States. These universities include the University of Maine, Harvard, MIT, University of Florida, University of Texas, University of Wisconsin, University of Minnesota, University of California Los Angeles, University of California San Diego, Berkeley, Stanford, University of Hawaii and the University of Washington. Cliffe spoke on these campuses in front of the Student Union or Library at noon for five to ten minutes. At the close of his initial remarks, he'd open up the time for questions and answers, which usually turned into a two to four hour dialogue with students. His crowd size ranged from 25 - 500 students at a time, and between classes, new students would join the discussion. This is an extremely effective way to reach a large number of university students with the Gospel of Christ.

@@godislove363 CONFOUNDED again stop lyin to ppl its impossible for u to be anything pertaining to God but Esaw the hated of God
👇
(Romans 9:11-14) for the children being not yet born neither having done any good nor evil that the purpose of God according to election might stand not of works but of him that calleth - as it is written jacob have i loved but
E. S. A. U. have i hated what shall we say then is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid(NO)
(Romans 9:20-23) nay but oh man who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it why has thou made me thus ? Hath not the potter power over the clay of the "same lump" to make one vessel unto honor(jacob) and another unto dishonor(esaw) what if God willing to show his wrath and to make his power known endured with much long suffering the vessels of wrath "fitted to destruction"
(Proverbs 16:4) the LORD hath made all things for himself yea even the wicked for the day of evil
(Isaiah 45:7) I form the light and create darkness I make peace and create evil I the LORD do all these things
(Habakkuk 2:4-5) his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him he is a proud man neither keepth at home who enlargemeth his desire as hell and as is death and cannot be satisfied
(Ecclesiastes 7:13) consider the work of God for who can straighten what he has made crooked?
@@kryptokn trolls are usually two things on here usually people who are basically just passing spam or useless talk or to cause trouble the second kind usually will stay on topic and discuss the issue but they'll do it in a negative way deliberately to cause divisiveness amongst other people no matter what they believe in that still would have caused divisiveness he is not looking for serious discussion nor does he know what he's talking about.
“He has no value to me”
The honesty is so refreshing
And that is precisely the world view which allowed the holocaust of Nazi Germany.
I’m a born again Christian have been for only a few days and I feel Gods presents everyday since I repented be born again and God will come to you and will never leave you 🙏
God bless you. Keep strong in the faith only by God's strength.
Keep strong and surround yourself with mentors and teachers. Despite the shortcomings you WILL see in other Christians, that is NOT you and your new relationship with God. Congrats!!! Praise God!!!
God bless you and welcome to God's family. He loves you died in a rose for you and is always there for you he will never forsake you.
I love you brother ❤️
This is, by far one of the best times in your Christian walk. Enjoy it & read the Bible often. Keep the faith.
Remember that you give up a belief because you know it is wrong, not because a doubt has been presented. I can doubt anything, but most of those doubts are for not. Jesus is the way, the truth, & the light. Seek until you find always. Knock & the door will be opened if you persist.
God Bless you always!
student-"I'll be honest"
cliffe-"thank you"
hahahahaha good one cliffe
He definitely gets me thinking about my christian walk. I love that he encourages asking questions, because i have struggled with doubt, but it was because of my own failures, thank God for grace in Jesus name. He truly doesnt give up on you.
That is so profound- truly.
We have doubts about Jesus because of our own failure and sin, NOT because HE has somehow fundamentally changed or is suddenly non-existent because we change our worldview.
"HE is The Alpha and The Omega, The Beginning and The end, the ever existing One before Abraham was born "I AM".
You’ve been really helping me lately. I Appreciate your videos.
yes, here too. praise God!
Amen

Furthermore, according to the brilliant linguist and cognitive scientist Noam Chomsky…
“There are only two ways of looking at eliminative materialism (the idea that all things reduce to solid substance). One is that it is total gibberish until someone tells us what matter is. Until someone tells us what eliminative materialism is there can’t be such a thing as eliminative materialism and no one can tell us what matter is”. (Noam Chomsky).
Equally, I’m not making any appeals to authority, but on the cognitive level Einstein utilised a more nuanced approach and demonstrated that “matter” is nothing more substantive than the curvature of space and time which is why he clearly completely rejected atheism for the belief in the fundamental nature of mind and consciousness. That is Einstein completely rejected atheism for the God of Spinoza/deism/panentheism. Similarly, Einstein’s closest friend Michelle Besso, who Einstein stated “was the greatest sounding board in Europe”, rejected atheism for the belief in the fundamental nature of absolute mind and consciousness/theism (Christianity).
Equally, according to Thomas Nagel…..
“Consciousness is the most conspicuous obstacle to a comprehensive naturalism that relies only on the resources of physical science. The existence of consciousness seems to imply that the physical description of the universe, in spite of its richness and explanatory power, is only part of the truth, and that the natural order is far less austere than it would be if physics and chemistry accounted for everything. If we take this problem seriously, and follow out its implications, it threatens to unravel the entire naturalistic world picture.” (Thomas Nagel)
Cliffe really brought me closer to God-God Bless Him
Cliff never talked about the Sunday Sabbath issue ... that would be an interesting topic! Is Sunday really the real day of worship?
@@carolinetapia8568 there's not a specific worship day-but the apostles gathered on Sundays because Christ rose then-so we kept the tradition

Can you actually prove that your god is real?
@@easypimpin123 have you EVER read the Holy Bible? If so, HOW do you think he is not real? Also, what harm is it for you to just believe.
@@nofallout942 your bible is filled with lies. How can you prove that the bible is telling you the truth?
Thats my whole point. Believing a lie is very harmful especially if you believe the lies in the bible that talk about the morality of slavery, blood sacrafice, or the inferiority of women. That is why it is harmful to believe in the bible.
But again, can you prove that your god is real or not?

Amen, Brother, these undergraduates need to be confronted !
16:00 “by putting my faith in Christ, it’s a request to help me want to do that which is good”
Sooo true! Well said, thank you!
Before I was saved the drive to do good, for good sake, did not exist. To do good was to benefit me in someway, even if that was to make me feel like a more moral person. Does motivation and intention matter? Absolutely! The Bible refers to this and talking about Goodworks being burned up or not. 1cor 3:12
Exactly, Amen.
@@godislove363 Amen, brother.

These people come with low arguments and when this guy hits them with logic and jesus it surprises me how much sense he makes. He opened my eyes to God even more.
Honestly, I could watch these videos all day, why, because many times I am that person asking questions to Cliffe
Same! I totally agree
Simply, something doesn't come from nothing.
Edit to clarify: something has to be created, which means there's a creator.
Well it’s everything that has an explanation of it’s own existence either in the necessity of it’s own nature or in an external cause.
Where did the creator come from?
@@JunkFlush he was referring to all things natural. God is Supernatural outside of time space and matter. He created and is in charge of that too.
@@JunkFlush Read my comment
Something can only come from nothing because something can only exist if nothingness exist. And nothingness has infinite possibilities, something is always defined.
Really enjoy your clarifications ❤️ it's been insightful to listen to you thank you
God bless you Cliffe 🙏💕

Your gift of spreading the truth with such knowledge and patience is something I strive for.
Didn't Jesus say this words=I am the way, the truth and the life, no one come to the Father except by me? What consultation do you want Jesus to tell you? If ye love me, keep my commandments. What else is there that you are missing?

1st time viewer here. My friend recommended you to me today. By my FREE WILL I chose to watch this and I'm glad I did!! God Bless you and him. Thank you
Cliffe your videos are so awesome. i learn a great deal from watching them. I enjoy your character as well and take a great deal of enjoyment watching them as well. God bless you Cliffe, keep doing what youre doing my brother in Christ.
second guy was stressing out trying to debate his beliefs
All atheists stress out when they debate their beliefs
Challenging the nonsense in the Hebrew Bible with convincing counter arguments is hard work and takes time. Not every anti-theist can do it.
@@JamesRichardWiley Challenging the truth is hard work.. You got that right !
@@JamesRichardWiley
“Challenging the nonsense in the Hebrew Bible”
“Is hard work and takes time”
True!! It takes a lot of time to come up with more straw man arguments and prevarication and sophistry (clever lies).
Sorry but “nonsense” according to who’s authority? The authority of something that is nothing more substantive than an evolved ape who shares half their DNA with bananas. Or “nonsense” according to something that is nothing more than a biological and chemical robot?
Under your world view you are nothing more than brain chemicals friend. You are nothing more substantive than the science project of vinegar and baking soda bubbling over!!
Does the science project of vinegar and baking soda bubble over bravely when it uses “nonsense”, prevarication (clever lies) including equivocation and fallacies of false equivalence to claim that something is “nonsense”.
Can the baking soda and vinegar take the credit for its circular logic and self contradiction??
“With me the horrid doubt always arises whether the convictions of man’s mind, which has been developed from the mind of the lower animals, are of any value or at all trustworthy. Would any one trust in the convictions of a monkey’s mind, if there are any convictions in such a mind.” (Charles Darwin).
Your world view not mine friend!!
Even Darwin recognised that under materialistic/naturalist premises the probability that our cognitive processes are accessing real truth is very low.
It’s hardly surprising that the expert on modal logic Alvin Plantinga pointed out that….
“There is superficial conflict but deep concord between science and theistic religion, but superficial concord and deep conflict between science and naturalism.” (Alvin Plantinga).
I rest my case!!
The second guy in the gray shirt he took over the conversation is a walking contradiction. That poor guy is so delusional and deceived by Satan it’s sad
Bet he's smart otherwise too. I hope he eventually opened up to the possibility of God and got saved.
@@megancrager4397 yes he is smart, but to the world’s standard, and we know what God says in His word about the wisdom of the world 👍🏻
@@JamesRichardWiley as u say “Let’s be clear about this”
Your right, God is in control and could’ve got rid of Satan a long time ago, but just cos God ain’t doing it anybody else’s way, well that’s His choice, God can see what we can’t, and that’s how this all ends, in the meantime yes it sucks, but from Gods point of view, this all happened only 6 days ago, ie when Satan tricked Adam and Eve, and there’s eternity to think about, so yeah Satan’s day is coming to him and that’s what matters
@@Sacrifice-Paid Amen to that.
@faith and fitness, amen as well. I did not include Luke 10:21 which reinforces that the devil is GOD’S devil and will use him for HIS purposes, even to blind the mind to those who think themselves to be so wise.
Thank you!
Great preaching amen 🙏🙏🙏God is love 🙏
CHRIST IS FREEDOM!
Yes indeed
When he speaks about evolutionary Instincts aka learned behavior. What about those that aren't good humans based on their evolutionary instincts ? Or those whom after having a relationship with Christ, have changed their behavior to do good instead of wrong? What does he think attributed to that?
Exactly, it’s called free will.
Why can't Christ, who is all powerful and can do whatever he wants to do have an influence on bad humans?
Who is more powerful, humans or almighty God?
@@JamesRichardWiley He does everyday. According to scriptures everyone is bad, we all fall short of the glory of God. God then draws in a repentent sinner, giving them his Holy Spirit who will then guide them into righteousness.
@@JamesRichardWiley its free will. Part of his promise for humans. Gotta read the bible to understand your questions. Remember Jesus was crucified and someone challenged him to that too. If he’s really God’s son then he has the power to get out of the suffering but he chose to go through with it. God’s will. Life isnt perfect. Everyone who chooses to do God’s Will, will carry their cross methaporically. Jesus who is son of the Lord went through pains and sufferings so who are we to complain about life’s “pains.” At least thats how i would interpret it.
_"What about those who aren't good humans based on their evolutionary instincts ?"_
*What about them?*
_"Or those that after having a relationship with Christ"_
*No, they CLAIM to have a relationship with an imaginary friend.*
_"have changed their behavior to do good instead of wrong?"_
*Again, what about them?*
_"What does he think attributed to that?"_
*Your grammar makes no sense, but I get the question. Lots of things could ACCOUNT for that. It does absolutely nothing to refute what he stated.*
I just love these videos they r just amazing
Aren’t they great !!!
That last point was a good one.
Many historical brilliant men admit they don't know. Many modern young men profess that they do, while knowing far less.
Interesting, the guy with the black T-shirt on has the Christian fish symbol in the centre of it…….., among cardinal and pride
I believe that’s God’s hand at work. Defying contradictions and bringing unlikely objects, people and things together. He will probably figure out what the fish is later and it will blow his mind
He could easily be playing devil’s advocate in order to learn how to deal with objections.
That doesn’t come from Christ
There is good pride and bad pride. Personally , I wont assume that the shirt isn't expressing good pride.
One good reason that God doesn't just reveal Himself to people as the gentleman asked can be found in Exodus 33:20...
_“you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.”_
That's awesome
Not just fabulous prefer he told us he had to be separate from sin it's through Christ Jesus that we have a mediator he is our mediator it is our resurrected savior he is the one that has given us life and the promise of Life as a father gave him.
On top of that God doesn’t necessarily have a “face” or a body
That verse is taken out of context. God has and still does reveal Himself to people. Look at Saul. Look at Thomas. Look at the 2 men travelling after the resurrection of Jesus. Look at death experiences when people said they saw Jesus.
That verse was I think said to Moses (if I remember correctly), Jesus is the image of the invisible God the scripture says. God came to Moses in His glory that's why He had to take off his sandals but when Jesus came to people they didn't have to take off their sandals. In OT only the high priest could enter into the holiest place but Jesus was made that veil and the scripture says we enter into His presence through the blood of the Lamb.
Hope this makes sense
@@r.k862 whether people accept it or not, what they saw was an angel of God not God Himself, every person that has “seen God” has only seen an angel on the behalf of God, being since angels and God are very similar in “appearance” and attributes (angels on a lesser scale of appearance and attributes though) and angels come playing the Role of God to man because Man cannot see God at all, if Man cannot even glimpse at *lesser* angels without trembling in fear what makes you think they can stand the presence of God, I know if I saw God I would die, why? We are talking about a being more advanced in knowledge than Stephen Hawking, Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein combined, a being more powerful than the tremendous black hole, the Creator of septillions of stars and octillions of planets. If man fears the presence of the lesser angels not even mentioning the greater angels, what makes you think man would not give up the ghost on the spot if they saw God?
James 5:11
Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
This was pretty cool
I love the “I have an instinct to pass my genes on” no one ever besides kings and racial rapist have ever expressed wanting to force their genes on the future. No one has ever said before sex “let’s extend or gene coding baby!” I
So if they don't say it then you believe this proves its not an ingrained instinct?
@@j2mfp78
Was that you making a comment or was it just your “instinct”/DNA. Correlation does not equal causation buddy this is basic science. “Selfish Gene” are just a metaphor and even Richard Dawkins reluctantly stated later that he regretted the metaphor after much criticism.

Smart young people.
God not only dont consult us first,He dont consult us at all. He's the Potter we are the clay.
a nazi God that would be ,yes
On the first question: God did told us about Himself in His word. He also choose to send us because of certain reasons: we can identify with our fellow human beings, it will develop our character, it is a gift from God (Ephesians 3:7) etc.
When Saul was blinded on the way to Damascus, God could have removed the scales from his eyes , but instead He chose to send Ananias to him.
7:18 yes this kind of thinking would drive you to help people because you would benefit from it. The question is what if 'helping' would not do you any good? Would you still help? I call this utility and a aftereffects of materialism.
Yes,God always does what He wants and does not need or want our permission,but does want or surrender to His will for our life.

@@israelisrael8269 HAHA... are those your 'go-to' verses that you try and use to promote your blatant racist beliefs?.... Don't worry, no need to reply. That was a rhetorical question. I already know that the answer is obviously "Yes".
When they just stop listening... it’s really difficult to not get irritated
Knowledge is a learned experience, whereas wisdom is a gift given unto those that look for the answers that are harder than the learned world's attempts at gaining the ultimate knowledge, which is unavailable in books. We are beings with a brain which has numerous chemical reactions preprogrammed, and those chemical reactions are there to run the human body, so our brains must have a reason other than utilizing it for keeping us alive. I would say the mind is there for big thoughts, logic and reasoning to conclude bigger truths.... But why? Because we've been given the gift of life to be purposeful for our creator GOD. For the person whom walks from God is not sent to hell, they started the walk and talk the talk which foreshadows the end result. We have many mercies which a loving GOD has given each and everyone of us, as we are introduced to Jesus Christ we are then offered God's Refining At Christ Exaltation, also known as GRACE. With the knowledge of Christ lived out and experienced through our redefined lives we will have faith in a God whom loves us all, but works of our involvement within the church and through society, we will be seen as lights in a dark world.
Be the light in a darkened world, but be humble and meek whilst doing the good for a God which keeps you within his will.

Man i love when an atheist is honest and consistent with their world view.
If you wanna see how ruthless people can be. Interview Corporate America. They will share many stories on how they had to claw their way and throw people under buses to move up. Naturally we are selfish. We only behave well when others are watching. This is why God has standards that we do good even when no one is watching. It challenges us to want to do good with no selfish gain attached. But to an atheist this is just how we’re built because of evolution. Even if programmed is the answer. I still believe we have a designer that programmed us that way. Life is too finely tune to not have a designer.
The difference between these kids and Cliffe. Cliffe is speaking philosophically and these kids are just trying to stump him. My favorite thing to say to atheists is ‘God is a joke until you meet him’. These kids think this is all a joke but they will die one day and will have to answer for their mockery of their Creator.

"You have bad genes"....this guy is hilarious!
You cannot remove the value of an individual by any action they take or you take. If so, then it is a Subjective (illusionary) value you place on them or yourself. The bottom line is, either we all have value for being or none of us do. If the latter, your Utility assigned your value, not you. To say the individual gives value, is to say their value is at least 2 seperate things at once (other's value for you & your value for you)& that makes no sense. Unless value A is value B, you lack value, since it isn't a set value. Gold is only worth something if people value it, thus ultimately it is worthless. He is treating people like that. That is a sad state of affairs for us all.
It is so intuitive that people have value. I think you need a real reason to reject. He didn't offer reasons, just a rejection.
Where do u have these debates? You give them truth, I appreciate your historical evidence and things I didn’t even know were founded but I’d love to show the atheist students some healings or prophetic gifts of the Holy Spirit.. Where I’m from we see miracles all the time. My father is a Pastor, we’d love to see what you’d think about linking up with on one of these debates?? Maybe change a couple atheistic mindsets...
“And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.”

I wish people would be homest with themselves and realize that it's easier to do evil and just worry about yourself then trying to do good and go out of our way to help others. It's just a fact sadly.

@@paulwilfridhunt Gods sovereignty mixed with out free will.
I understand He doesn’t want robots.
Because he doesn’t want us to be forced to love Him.
But those who believe in Gods sovereignty, will believe God can speak through a radio, TV show, a random stranger, etc. but where is this line that is drawn between His sovereignty and our free will?
@@RaymondCJV It’s certainly an interesting subject isn’t it. God is running the show or as you put it, He is sovereign, and of course He knows all things, and therefore knows those who will be faithful to Him.
And that faithfulness when it happens to us is an act of our free will isn’t it. And God knowing this helps us to do exactly that. But He’s not going against our free will. He’s helping us to do what He knows we want to do which is be faithful to Him. But sometimes we need a bit of help to do it. Paul the apostle is an example of this. God knew that if He did all that he did to Saul from Tarsus, throw him off his horse and all the rest of it, Saul would become Paul the Apostle. But all of this wouldn’t have worked on the Caiaphas because he was never going to be faithful to God.
@@paulwilfridhunt very interesting. I guess I get tied up on how, for instance, I’m in my car, mad, trying not to hate a certain person, finally decide to hate the person, knowing it’s wrong, but the thing is a guy, walks past my car, mumbling to himself but I catch him saying “thou shall not hate”.
I don’t expect to have an argument with you over if that was Gods work right there or not. But my thing is how is that man in free will, did not God take over him to say that to help me? No average man can know I was having this going through my head for the few hours and just so happen at the specific moment say the right thing at the right time.
This type of stuff happens to me all the time with people, notifications, everything, birds, wind, weather, God is so powerful. So I’m at the point where I feel everyone and everything is God or least in His control, who am I then? Where do I fit in all this?
@@RaymondCJV That’s very interesting. Perhaps we can say that God has the licence obtained from the work at Calvary by Jesus Christ to intervene in the lives of the redeemed.
And perhaps this is constantly happening to all the believers, but in some cases such as your own, it is much more pronounced and therefore noticeable.
I think it’s rather marvellous that you’re seeing everything the way you are.
What a delightful state to be in.
Maybe the guy walking past mumbling thou shalt not hate was actually an angel. God is working on you. Please tell us more.
Hebrews 13:2

2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Many fall back on biological instinct as a means of why they do what they do, it is the deepest level they can fathom. The problems arise when we willfully go against our instincts (ie to save a drowning child at the expense of my own safety). Instincts tell us what we do by default, it cannot tell us what we ought to do. The ought is conviction, a struggle between what we want to do and what we should do. Those who profess atheism will will deny their own reality to defend their position, you will rarely see them live out their positions.
_"The problems arise when we willfully go against our instincts (ie to save a drowning child at the expense of my own safety)."_
What's the supposed 'problem'? Also, it is instinctual to save the drowning baby even at your own safety's expense so, it's a false analogy.
_"Those who profess atheism will will deny their own reality to defend their position,"_
What supposed 'reality' of mine am I supposedly 'denying'?
You can analyze a brain to see if it was HAPPY and sad And depressed??? That would be like analyzing the wind And how would you know the difference??? God created us in His image And praise God for his blessings!!!
Luke 11:28
But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
Luke 14:20
And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
1 Corinthians 11:13
Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
Luke 19:23
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

There's an even deeper question that can be asked. Why does the urge to create meaning exist in the first place? Why is it that when no meaning is readily perceived, man is compelled to create one for himself? This young man's argument seems to indicate that it is an evolutionary instinct. But that can't be true, because nature is entirely based on self-preservation. If you look at the animal kingdom, you can see that everything animals do is meant to keep them alive and generate offspring. And even man has that instinct within him. Ask a lifeguard and they will tell you that some people, when drowning, have such a strong instinct of self-preservation that they can drown The rescuer. So the instinct is there, but within us, battling for supremacy, is the constraint to think of others before themselves. And since altruism is not a product of evolution, this potential must come from another source. Namely, the spirit given.
