If you claim you know jesus ok...tell me what's stocks should i invest next can you ask him for me? what is jesus' favorite color??
Sounds silly but I find singing them, both when not around others :) or with others helps a lot. Also, just simply asking the Holy Spirit to help and give a chance to use scripture definitely helps it stick. Great heart desire sir keep seeking!
Study the scriptures, read your Bible, talk to God, build a close relationship with him. Just like you can sing your favorite songs word for word or the ABC’s lol. Practice makes perfect and when you love something it stays in your mind. Trust in Jesus the scriptures will flow out of your mouth
I write down different scriptures I’m drawn to for whatever reason and I reflect on them daily when I’m reading my Bible, listening to the word and praying
I am blown away by the effectiveness of the reasoning, passion and accuracy that the Holy Spirit has given this gentleman to share the Gospel and his belief in Jesus Christ. To God be the glory!
what is an none Israelite accurate about when the bible tell us the most high never dealt with any other nation psalm 147 /19 /20 he show his words to Jacob his statutes and judgments to Israel according to the bible the most high show his words statutes and judgments to Israel never mention no other nation unless you can show me in scripture let's continue for he has not dealt with any other nation according to the bible the most high never dealt with any other nation so how accurate can an nation the most high never dealt with be accurate let's continue and for his judgments they have not known them so how accurate can he be not known the most high words statutes and judgments
God created all of us in HIS IMAGE, and predestined us to be adopted into his family/bride. Jesus will come back to judge the WORLD… not just Israel. “he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,” Ephesians 1:5 ESV God the father predestined Jesus to be born in Bethlehem. God predestined Jesus with a calling. And don’t forget about Adam and Eve, they were created in the garden of Eden, and it says they walked with Jesus. I have respect for you and thank you for asking a question. God bless you

My mom left poison mushrooms out in a Gatorade bottle and I drank some, thinking it was a treat but immediately regretting it I started praying. I told my mom and she said I'd die, I was so scared. But I ignored it and kept praying, I got my heart opened, instead of the devil being able to torment me, He showed me what I truly had in my heart. I thought I couldn't forgive my mom for what she did to me as a child, God showed me the true desires I have. I did not hate her, I loved her so much more than anyone could see. I loved Jesus, I loved God, Judas, etc. I was not created for hate there is no ability for me to hate when I'm following Him. I was so happy that I could have so much love because I followed God. I stayed up all day and night, without even realizing and I just kept telling my family over and over about Jesus/God, and texting my husband about God and how in love I am with him, thankful we have a relationship with God, that we love Jesus etc. And then God told me, "you will live" I just knew He was keeping me safe the entire time. A little bit of faith is enough for you to hear Him. God literally saved me. I cried in the shower, begging to let me serve Him for a little longer I just want to make a difference to someone. I think it's beautiful that He saved some teen girl who wanted to devote her future family to Him, and tell everyone about how scared she was being in the shower begging God like a vulnerable child. (I really was) It was so amazing to know He loved me so much to tell me I will be okay. I am so happy there's suffering, because if I didn't suffer and He didn't save me I wouldn't realize how deep His love was for me. He is so wonderful and makes the most out of it for you.
I’m so grateful for stumbling across this video. I have been asking myself what if Christianity is just another cult or religion and we’re just being brainwashed to believe in a God, but after watching, there is no doubt that Christianity is not like any other religion or cult because of the way the disciples are described and how God warns us about false prophets. I feel relieved to have had my question answered. Thank you!
Indeed false prophets hence why prophecy is very important to understand. He’s a good prophecy important to understand: Unmasking the Mark: th-cam.com/video/4y3tDILQFhE/w-d-xo.html

His commitment and patience towards ignorant minds amazes me as I would have lashed out or been angry at their thinking, but Cliff is Just, Cliff is Fair. Cliff, you Motivate and Inspire me, and it will only be a matter of time until I get to live out this scripture as YOU Righteously do. And it goes “But in your Hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be Prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the Hope that you have. But do this with Gentleness and respect” 1 Peter 3:15 NIV ❤️

I like the way this young man was very respectful. I wish we could do it like this in europe.

it tough nowadays to find people that preach and not intimidate. I have always received biblical knowledge better when it seems more of a passive interference than a harsh and dominant one. God wants you to speak of him and praise his name, but its hard to see love in a message that is so strong; you do a wonderful job of answering questions while maintaining that calm. Love the fact that the person asking the questions has actual respect for the answers given as well, very uncommon amongst todays generation toward Christianity.

@@iezzif hi Frank, you say you " learned more watching 4 episodes of Cliffe than sitting in church for 40 years". Better late than never right! Lol. That seems like an indictment on that church you were in..and perhaps to an extent it is. That happens. What I found to be true in my own life was that having a boatload of "answers" handed to me about God or about His bible didn't mean anything to me as long as I didn't previously have "questions" and curiosities for those answers to mesh gears with. I hope that makes sense. And I think thats kinda how it is for all of us. Not to get too simple but its like telling someone the answer is "4" but if that person doesn't have any desire to know and or doesn't care to know what 2+2 is ..then telling me "4" is kinda meaningless. Im guessing at some point you began to form questions about God and or His bible...maybe lots of them... and a spiritually gifted guy like Cliffe comes along and starts rattling off the answers to your subconsciously formed questions and bingo! its a MATCH! "For wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;" ~ Proverbs 2:10 Take care Frank..see you in Glory! Amen
A Barber's Story: Does God Exist? A man went to a barber shop to have his hair and his beard cut as always. He started to have a good conversation with the barber who attended him. They talked about so many things and various subjects. Suddenly, they touched the subject of God. The barber said: "Look man, I don't believe that God exists as you say." "Why do you say that?" asked the client. "Well, it's so easy, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God does not exist. Oh, tell me, if God existed, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be no suffering nor pain. I can't think of loving a God who permits all of these things." The client stopped for a moment thinking, but he didn't want to respond as to cause an argument. The barber finished his job and the client went out of the shop. Just after he left the barber shop he saw a man in the street with a long hair and beard (it seems that it had been a long time since he had his cut and he looked so untidy). Then the client again entered the barber shop and he said to the barber, "You know what? Barbers do not exist." "How can you say they don't exist?" asked the barber. "Well I am here and I am a barber." "No!" the client exclaimed. "They don't exist because if they did there would be no people with long hair and a beard like that man who walks in the street." "Ah, barbers do exist, what happens is that people do not come to me." "Exactly!"- affirmed the client. "That's the point. God does exist, what happens is people don't go to Him and do not look for Him. That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."
@@g1android11 How? I completely understood it. Things don’t happen for you unless you do your part first. That’s what the client was explaining to the barber about God.
One of the guys said “something we will never know”. We have an assurance, God has made himself known. If you haven’t felt Him that close before give it time and be soft enough to change perspectives of who God is and what He can do in your life.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
This guy, the first or only, ask awesome questions. The ONLY way we can know that we humans have a "hopeless problem", that we have no ability at all to detect on our own. Outside of direct revelation there would have no way to know we were missing something we never had, that being a living spirit directly connected to His Spirit as we were created to be. This kid is a sharp thinker period. I pray God draw him and resurrect his spirit. He's a seeker without a doubt.
I'm an atheist to the point that I can't understand how anyone could read the Bible and/or listen to preaching and still honestly believe. (I don't mean this in any condescending way) This guy and especially Ray Comfort sound more like used car salesmen trying to upsell me, than disciples of God. I still listen to theist points to understand their rationale, but this guy is hurting the cause.
@@alanbriggs86 their rational is simple. To follow the last teaching of Jesus. That said spread his parole. Because heaven is God's property and as Romans said "in Rome do as Roman's do". We cannot enter God's kingdom if we don't follow his laws. Everything is in our hands so when the time comes not everyone will agree with their judgements but no one could say I didn't know.
@@alanbriggs86 I'm sorry but athiests like you are just delusional. How can you constantly lie to yourself and say there is no God everyday. How can you look at animals, nature, the sun, the moon and stars and say there is no God. I'm sorry but yall are just on par with flat earthers at this point. It's so hard to take yall seriously.
@@esmereldasnickles8056 Its pretty Simple we just have more evidence on how these elements are formed it's the goal of scientific research to provide evidence on those makers. Religion doesn't have this which is why so many people just cannot get into religion the whole thing is about belief and how they believe in something when there's no evidence to back any of this stories besides written sources from thousand's of years ago which for all we know could've been written by creative minds. We live in a world where writers have created whole worlds from Middle Earth, Star Wars Galaxy, Star Trek and it's many cultures and fictional alien religions to name a few. It's not hard to believe that many religions are just nothing more than stories. As a massive fan of religion i went to a Catholic and did really well in Religion which we had to take but i never really believed in it was far more interested in the ancient gods of the Greeks and the Romans along with the Egyptians which i found more interesting and creative and honestly more believable in some ways. Overall yeah there not really delusional some people just need a little bit more evidence to get onboard i know many people who are really into science but still believe in god of course in their own way as they also have a better understanding of science than the average believer.
My answer to the question written in the title is this. The reason why there is so much pain and suffering is because the ones experiencing the pain and suffering have rejected the only one who can heal them from both. The irony is that while pain and suffering was caused by Adam through his sin, the Messiah helps us by healing us first and then learning how to live in spite of the pain and suffering around us, and then become a witness to show others how to overcome the pain and suffering.
Я народилась в християнській сім’ї, завжди вважала правильним вірити в Бога, і я дійсно вірю в Нього. Але ніколи не задавала ці питання. І не знала як відповісти на них друзям. Але те як відповідає, Кліфф навіть мене переконало в моїй вірі! Дякую, що даєте можливість почути відповіді на такі прості, але складні для розʼяснення, питання❤ Я дуже хочу придбати його книжку
These videos give me so much hope. Especially with the climate that exists towards God on college campuses and campuses in general. It makes me so excited to see people genuinely curious about God and asking questions. It opens the door. I love it! I dont think theres winning an argument, theres salvation and thats the goal, to lead people to Christ and this is the way. Great conversations, dialogue and questions. Praying to God that there will be a radical awakening on these campuses among these students and that they experience the true love of God because it transforms. You can even see how him telling people about the love God has for them brings hope. His name alone has power and you can see it in all of these conversations.
Jesus didn't say that we will not be suffering before he went back to heaven, he have told us that we will have tribulations, and to be of good cheer, he have overcome the world, we have to share in his sufferings, because Jesus did suffer when he was on earth, many hated him, and said he wasn't God! and he was rejected and betrayed, and was tempted by the devil and was spat on, etc... then killed on the cross for our sins! it's the devil's world! of course this world is of pain and suffering, but Jesus is coming back soon to change this world for much better! amen!.
You realize that priests have a reputation of molesting children, don't you? I mean, the Catholic church has even apologized for it and has paid over 3.7 billion dollars in restitutions. Why would anyone still support such an organization?
By that logic free will is a curse. At heaven you won't even think about sinning right? So does that mean no free will? And if free will is a blessing that means that Earth is better than heaven.
@@drcola143 In Heaven we will be in the presence of complete perfection. We will lack nothing. We'll have everything we need and we'll have everything we want. We'll still have free will, but we won't want to sin and we won't feel the need to sin because God is right before our eyes and He has given us EVERYTHING we could ever hope for. People sin to gain. Money, power, women, dopamine, etc. When you lack nothing, why sin? It's as simple as that.
@@TheMidnightModder mmm, not really. By that logic that means you are capable of sinning, but choose not too. But in heaven isn't it impossible to sin? Also, why have an Earth then? Why can't God just start us in heaven
@@drcola143 It does make sense, you're just not giving it thought. Forced love is not love. God wants us to love Him unconditionally so He puts us at arms distance away so we can properly use our free will to decide if we want to love Him or not. Then if we Choose to be with Him we will be in Heaven.
Absolutely not true. True love for God is faith in HIS redemption through His Son (which is GIVEN as a GIFT FROM GOD). Without this redemptive gift, your so-called "love" for God is a lie and has ZERO bearing on a so-called personal "choice" to choose evil OR good which you do not understand is SOVEREIGNLY DECIDED. Jesus expressly said "You did NOT CHOOSE ME, I chose you". You'll find this sentiment OVER AND OVER from the very Son of God and His Apostles.
The word "meme" was invented by Richard Dawkins in his first book "The Selfish Gene", and the word means, an idea that is passed from one human to another in the same way a virus is spread. Therefore, Cliffes argument that "every human is flawed and the only way to fix yourself is with jesus" is a meme itself. Probably the original meme that Richard Dawkins was referring to. So, just understand that the viral spread of ridiculous religious ideas, was the reason for the invention of the word "meme". Knowledge is power.
@@satan6412 The argument that all of us are flawed is factual, memes don’t necessarily have to be factual in fact they tend to be humorous the majority of the time. Knowledge is power but God given wisdom wields it.
@@PianoWrecker when sin entered the world through adam it spread and no one is blameless but God provide a way by sending his Son so that whoever believes him will be save👍🏻
Not only that God knows Everything so he knew Adam would Eat from the Tree of Forbidden Knowledge so how did Adam know it was wrong to Disobey God Since he could not have known it was Wrong until he Had eaten the Fruit
Here’s how I see it, God made us with free will and in doing that there’s an opportunity for sin, he didn’t create it but he allows it as a path from our choices. Same thing when people ask why doesn’t God just show up and prove he is who he says he is. If he did that you’d be overcome by his glory and not really have a choice.
@Devante Randle … It is one byproduct of choice but not the only byproduct. Without the ability to choose our behavior then we would be nothing more than robots. Our love for God our anyone would be simply a mechanical response and not real.
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
Nothing is solved? There are a lot of examples of suffering which is not caused by us. Sickness, Birth defects, Volcanoes etc. He just ignored all examples which do not support his own argument.
When we tell God to get lost or bug off (however you want to put it) he doesn’t just leave us be because he’s no puppet master or manipulator, he also takes his characteristics/attributes along with him, such as goodness, grace, mercy, love, respect etc this is the reason hell is such a desolate, isolated, evil and lonely place because God isn’t there, people end up there because they want nothing to do with God, and how can someone who can’t stand God here on earth inherit Gods kingdom and dwell with him there in eternity think about it, it’s also why the world is in such perfect order and control because God is a God of order BUT you have people here on earth who reject him and because he’s not going to violate your will your life will reflect his absence (disease, death, etc)because of your not following God your following your own will and fleshly desires which is sin and the wages of sin is death, hope this helped someone understand a lil better - God bless
Matthew 12:35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
Why the need to be compared? 🤔 surely, absence makes the heart grow fonder but fond is already there without it's opposite.. the opposite only supplments but is in no way superior.. 🙄
Apologetics are great & something we should really all study. But I've never, not once, heard someone say their life got worse by following Christ. Maybe they exist but I haven't ran into one yet. I think God reaches out to every person & the more you start listening, reading the Bible, and thinking upon these things, you start noticing it even more. As someone who just recently came back to faith in my women's bible group said last week, he's always there ready to pick up the phone when you're ready to make that call.
Many atheists feel that because there is so much pain and suffering in the world, that this in some way gets rid of God, as if the elimination of all pain and suffering would prove the existence of God. But for all we know, a world suffuse with pain and suffering might bring the most people into a saving relationship with God. The point is, we just do not know why God allows pain and suffering. And he is under no obligation to reveal his motives to us. However, since I believe (and many others) that God is the highest imaginable being, and all of his attributes and character can ONLY be good, righteous, pure and without malice and evil; all of God's reasons for doing anyting or allowing anything must come from his loving character, for it is written, “God IS love”. Aunt Matilda can bake a lovely chocolate cake, and we can analzye all the various characteristics of that cake, its ingredients, its taste, its beauty, and everything we can imagine about that cake; but we will never know why Aunt Matilda baked that cake unless she reveals it to us. Yet, if she chooses not to reveal her reasons for baking that cake, her decision to keep that a secret does not in any way prove that Aunt Matilda does not exist. Nonsense! And so it is, if God does not decide to reveal anything to us, his decision to be silent does not in any way prove his nonexistence. That too is nonsense! But the one thing I am completely sure about is that if a Christian is suffering with some terminal illness, and prays for God to heal them, the ultimate healing would be for God to take them to Paradise, where they would enjoy eternal healing. I personally have a terminal illness, and know that God can heal me here on Earth if he so chooses. But I also feel it personally far better for God to take the life I now have in this mortal, weak, natural body; and bring me to Paradise in an eternal, glorified, spiritual body; free from all pain, suffering, death, sorrow, etc.
@@carefulcarpenter we are all valuable in our own ways. Cliff is great at apologetics. I believe I am good at meditation and understanding the word of God and teaching it. Everyone has their own gifts.
@@theoskeptomai2535 I don’t personally, as I have done research for months on the evidence for Christianity, and I have found it to be true, and have even had my own personal experiences with Jesus Christ myself (which I know are purely testimonial, but many other people have experienced the same thing). It is actually impossible to logically justify atheism, as according to that worldview all “logic” is just solely a man’s personal opinion based on random patterns and paths that molecules and matter take in your brain according to Physics, the laws of logic don’t even work in atheism because we have no higher standard to compare them with nor justify them from. The laws of logic are completely immaterial, how do they even exist properly in the materialistic atheist worldview?
@@easybeliever7 I am not convinced a god exists because I have never encountered any evidence that suggests one does exist. If you heard a claim to truth, especially an extraordinary claim, that was presented without any evidence, would you think it is rationally justified to suspend any acknowledgement as to the truth of such claim until evidence were introduced?
God doesn't just step back, He down right punished us for disobeying Him. He said that you CANNOT take from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and that if you do, I will punish you with death and disease, Adam and Eve flipped him off and gave into temptation at the "hands" of the Devil and that is what we have now, death and disease.
-if the bible was true then adam and eve did it. Not us. - it's god's fault for putting the trees there in the first place. -death already existed. That's why there was a tree of eternal life in the garden. People who live forever don't need to eat anything. also they weren't 'tempted' by the devil. They were guided to the tree of knowledge by the serpent. Genesis never says the serpent is the devil and god cursed the serpent to walk on its belly, meaning it was a literal snake.
@@SMPwhiteshadow please point out the confusion. What I said is truthful and honest. And yes, I have satanic beliefs. As an ex-Christian I like Satanism now cause Satan did nothing wrong and God is far worse by a factor of a trillion. Why do you love evil?
@@xxxod First, the Bible is and always will be true. Second, yes, Adam and Eve committed the original sin of which God punished the entire human race to be born with original sin. Third, death may have been a thing but God made it so man could eat of the tree of Eternal Life and took that away as punishment, therefore making it so every human on this earth to surely die. One other thing, disease didn't exist until man disobeyed. Fourth, GOD DOES NOT MAKE MISTAKES AND NOTHING IS HIS FAULT!!! Fifth, it states specifically that the Devil possessed the snake because it was the most susceptible to possession, and that is also why the serpent was punished, for allowing the Devil to take over.
If you go to heaven after death than death would be a good thing. but to fear death and say its bad shows you don't truly believe that u would go to heaven after death.
Some who are growing in Christ are still learning about this and many other topics. It is their love and sincerity in what we know, not how much. I for example may know more than person x,but person x may have more faith etc.

❌❌❌ wrong answer... FUN FACT: he can create free will without evil... he can confine free will to good choices or good options only like we can choose what to eat, what to wear, etc. but we cannot choose to commit stealing, murder, or to sin. BUT surprise, surprise he didn't he create that. Don't make free will an EXCUSE for the existence of evil and suffering in this world. 😌 It is his fault because he let evil and suffering.
@@terminusadquem6981 if He allows free will, why must there be conditions of free will? Free is free, there is no free this but not free that. He gives us free will but also commandments and Jesus Christ to combat the free will of evil doing. Don’t blame God when we’re the ones choosing to do evil. Don’t try to be God and tell God what to do for our own benefits.

@@mylesshaw6407 In 2017 a computer analyst spent a year using the squaring of the circle to prove that Pi is NOT a transcendental number. I watched for the last couple months as he went step by step in a very complicated graphic design proof using a spreadsheet. I am just a carpenter, so he did not take me very seriously, and seldom replied to my comments. I believe it was 10.26.2017 when he posted his final spreadsheet numbers. I was impressed! Then I had observed what he used as the value of Phi. Within 4 hours I posted a proof that reestablished the status of Pi as a transcendental number. He ignored me completely and soon after closed down his YT channel. Do you understand the philosophical reasoning behind his proof, and the impact of the epiphany I had that turned his applecart upside-down? The very next day after Bible Study, with a friend who works at NASA, I was confronted with a Christian brother who did not see a problem, or a miracle that happened. On the 28th, two days later, Q made the first post on 4chan. I am able to discuss privately in person the two Q-proofs that I have documented empirical evidence. What is the source?

Remember when you were a small child and about to do something wrong, but you felt that little tug at your heart that told you "NO"? That was the spirit trying to guide you... Or when you were older and trying to figure out something difficult but you just couldn't and finally it occurs to you, so as to make you say "oh yeah! Why didn't i think of that before?" - because HE just gave it to you. We say that because it seems so simple when the answer is perfect. That's how we know what comes from our Father, by it's perfection. When we don't listen we say things like "something was telling me" or "i had a gut feeling" but really this is how God communicates with every life form. Remember what Jesus said, "consider the birds of the field, they neither reap nor sow yet our Father feeds them" and HE can cause them to see a worm in the grass from the highest treetops. How much more can HE cause us to see? How much more important are we than the birds? When we get a big flow of information/understanding, we call it an "epiphany" and it can change your whole life. Learn to clear your mind. Learn your types of thoughts. Don't give any time to negative thoughts or thoughts that don't help you. "The Spirit is the true teacher" and as long as you're wrapped up in the world, you'll never hear HIM. ❤️🙏
I mean, believing in god is nothing more than a facade, an excuse to ignore your problems. That’s why a lot of older people believe in god because their time is almost up and believing in something that doesn’t exist gives them the comfort that there is more to life after death.
Of all the "intellectual" arguments for Christ as the begotten Son of God, none is more powerful than the death of the apostles. A person may (as have others throughout history) have died for an erroneous belief. But they were witnesses. They lived with Jesus. They KNOW if what they wrote is true or is false because they SAW it. They proclaimed Jesus as God. They did so and did not become rich or to gain friends or to get hot women. They did become "famous" but many of their writings admitted their personal flaws, which is statement against interest for becoming "admired historical figures". All they needed to do is state that Jesus was NOT God and they would have avoided being murdered (martyred). But knowing Christ, they refused to deny Him and were executed for it. They died testifying to their knowledge when a simple denial of truth would have meant they get to live. No man would knowingly die for a lie. Powerful stuff.
@@theoskeptomai2535 There can be no doubt that Jesus of Nazareth existed - the historical evidence is clear. Much in the same way we know President Lincoln and Socrates existed. Even the most agnostic/atheistic of scholars agree about Jesus' existence. So, knowing He existed, the question then is whether He was the begotten Son of God.
Life was not meant to be easy. God sees your suffering and he wants you to be humble all the way through. The devil wants to hand us gold on a platter but at a certain horrible cost of losing our souls to him.
Hmmm, what about God’s life. He’s is an omnipotent being who lives a perfect life without suffering, yet is still humble, which means you could still be humble without suffering.
But life was originally meant to be easy wasn’t it? Didn’t god give us everything we needed in the garden of eden? And everything was “perfect”? And there was no suffering or pain or death, since all of those things were caused by the fall of man?
People always expect God to be accountable for correcting the things He gave us the choice, understanding and ability to do. The reason why the world is what it is is because we can’t do right by ourselves.
If we can expect humans to be held accountable for their actions, then a god much also be held accountable for their selfish, completely needless, and barbarian methods of resolving issues that they knowingly created.
@@psychocentipede7165 Nah, you’re thinking too small. Things are fair. He gave us free will and an understanding of right and wrong. Even if he did hold people accountable, it wouldn’t be because they wanted to, it’d be out of fear. He’d rather you just do the right thing, if not, he’s literally like Kang waiting for things to play out.
I love how even though my world is in an upheaval right now God has still used things to show me just what we were discussing on the last video. Someone on the last video with kept calling the idea of God absurd interestingly enough excuse mention that word absurd in a different context I hope that person that was on last time is paying attention.
have you gotten tired of telling folks these are old videos....i sure have..ive given up...i figure let them figure it out themselves...some will ..some wont
Because we know we can learn from the mistakes of others, as well as our own, we therefore treasure up those insights which we have obtained, that tell us to not do those same things that are mistakes that others have made. Clearly we do not need the people who mistakenly believe the world is flat, to teach us with their mistake that the world is round. But there is a mistake they make which is a danger to all. And its this. They have allowed their desire to be important to get the better of them, so much so, that they serve as an example of what’s possible if you lose your analytical ability. They are no longer in a position whereby they can be reasoned with, although they continue every day to believe they are possessors of great critical thinking. The overwhelming conclusion we can arrive at, is this. Beware of the self, if it tarries too long, drinking from the wine of self importance. Because this has destroyed them. It’s not their mad flat earth but the vino. The danger in telling others that they are great, is, they can turn into alcoholics of the worst kind, who want more and more wine of self importance. They get hooked on the stuff and can’t live without it. These are people who have lost their minds. They can not and will not entertain any rationality that opposes their belief in the flat earth. They won’t look into it. They want the earth to be flat. But that’s not where it’s at is it. Let the earth be whatever the earth be, not what you want it to be. Right? We all get that don’t we, except for the flat earth brigade. They can’t get it. That’s how far gone they are. But let’s not just pick on the flat earthers. Let’s be fair. We must include the atheists. Let’s analyse them. Or perhaps we shouldn’t bother. It’s way too tedious. But notice the similarities. The atheists are biased. They want God to not exist. And they become offended with this accusation and say nay friend we are open to believe. And they actually believe this to be true, because they think its true. They actually think they are ok with the idea of God’s existence and would happily believe it, if only someone could just prove it. That’s where those guys are at. It’s the same as the flat earth people who outrageously say in the face of blinding evidence, where is the evidence? Ring any bells? The atheist do exactly the same by saying that all of the incredible evidence isn’t actually evidence at all. And because the great whale in the sea hasn’t got a stamp on him saying made by God, they excitedly exclaim God didn’t make that great fish who dives deeper than a submarine. Can an atheist or a flat earther be reasoned with? Maybe. But it hasn’t happened yet? Only God can do that. If you think you can rescue a flat earther with logic you better think again. That doesn’t work on them. But neither does it work on atheists. Don’t waste your time or your breath. They are never going to get it. It’s because they feel very important for not being a schmuck that believes in God. But the real biggie is not being inferior to God and all His greatness. That’s the real pump up for them. But don’t talk to them about this. They’ll never get it in a million years. Ever!!!
If I know someone is planning on bombing and killing alot of people, and I do nothing even though I am positive be will do it, I am just as responsible for the deaths. If God knew Satan was going to infect people with hatred and cause death he is this responsible also. Wouldn't you agree.
@@erwilson0804 no, devil was an angel and then pride cause him to cast out of Heaven (he wanted to be God). He has free will, God created him but he made the decision to go against God. True love is free will. Just like how you and I can decide to obey God or disobey God. God knitted us in our mother's womb and we have the free will decision to obey God or disobey God, which is love.
@@fpl_bailey free will is a myth, it's not to have free will once consequences are tied to it. Once God says follow me or you be doomed to hell( not an exact quote), the fear of threat affects your free will. If I told you you can have a bag of money with a million dollars in it free and clear with no consequences, that's free will. If I said you can have it, but you may die if you take it, the threat alters your free will, therefore free will doesn't exist.

I wish I had the memory to remember scripture and bring it up instantly when needed.
You can easily remember scripture. The way I found best was repeating a couple of scriptures a day to remember them for future use
Sounds silly but I find singing them, both when not around others :) or with others helps a lot. Also, just simply asking the Holy Spirit to help and give a chance to use scripture definitely helps it stick. Great heart desire sir keep seeking!
Study the scriptures, read your Bible, talk to God, build a close relationship with him. Just like you can sing your favorite songs word for word or the ABC’s lol. Practice makes perfect and when you love something it stays in your mind. Trust in Jesus the scriptures will flow out of your mouth
I write down different scriptures I’m drawn to for whatever reason and I reflect on them daily when I’m reading my Bible, listening to the word and praying

God created all of us in HIS IMAGE, and predestined us to be adopted into his family/bride. Jesus will come back to judge the WORLD… not just Israel.
“he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,”
Ephesians 1:5 ESV
God the father predestined Jesus to be born in Bethlehem. God predestined Jesus with a calling. And don’t forget about Adam and Eve, they were created in the garden of Eden, and it says they walked with Jesus.

No. Not true. And it’s a sin to lie
My mom left poison mushrooms out in a Gatorade bottle and I drank some, thinking it was a treat but immediately regretting it I started praying.
I told my mom and she said I'd die, I was so scared. But I ignored it and kept praying, I got my heart opened, instead of the devil being able to torment me, He showed me what I truly had in my heart.
I thought I couldn't forgive my mom for what she did to me as a child, God showed me the true desires I have.
I did not hate her, I loved her so much more than anyone could see. I loved Jesus, I loved God, Judas, etc. I was not created for hate there is no ability for me to hate when I'm following Him.
I was so happy that I could have so much love because I followed God. I stayed up all day and night, without even realizing and I just kept telling my family over and over about Jesus/God, and texting my husband about God and how in love I am with him, thankful we have a relationship with God, that we love Jesus etc. And then God told me, "you will live" I just knew He was keeping me safe the entire time. A little bit of faith is enough for you to hear Him.
God literally saved me. I cried in the shower, begging to let me serve Him for a little longer I just want to make a difference to someone.
I think it's beautiful that He saved some teen girl who wanted to devote her future family to Him, and tell everyone about how scared she was being in the shower begging God like a vulnerable child. (I really was) It was so amazing to know He loved me so much to tell me I will be okay.
I am so happy there's suffering, because if I didn't suffer and He didn't save me I wouldn't realize how deep His love was for me. He is so wonderful and makes the most out of it for you.
The Lord Jesus Christ is good! My life was turned completely upside down but I trusted Jesus. I love you Jesus
I’m so grateful for stumbling across this video. I have been asking myself what if Christianity is just another cult or religion and we’re just being brainwashed to believe in a God, but after watching, there is no doubt that Christianity is not like any other religion or cult because of the way the disciples are described and how God warns us about false prophets. I feel relieved to have had my question answered. Thank you!
... this is exactly how brainwashing works.
Indeed false prophets hence why prophecy is very important to understand. He’s a good prophecy important to understand:

Love the fact that the person asking the questions has actual respect for the answers given as well, very uncommon amongst todays generation toward Christianity.

Better late than never right! Lol. That seems like an indictment on that church you were in..and perhaps to an extent it is. That happens.
What I found to be true in my own life was that having a boatload of "answers" handed to me about God or about His bible didn't mean anything to me as long as I didn't previously have "questions" and curiosities for those answers to mesh gears with. I hope that makes sense. And I think thats kinda how it is for all of us.
Not to get too simple but its like telling someone the answer is "4" but if that person doesn't have any desire to know and or doesn't care to know what 2+2 is ..then telling me "4" is kinda meaningless.
Im guessing at some point you began to form questions about God and or His bible...maybe lots of them... and a spiritually gifted guy like Cliffe comes along and starts rattling off the answers to your subconsciously formed questions and bingo! its a MATCH!

A Barber's Story: Does God Exist?
A man went to a barber shop to have his hair and his beard cut as always. He started to have a good conversation with the barber who attended him. They talked about so many things and various subjects. Suddenly, they touched the subject of God. The barber said: "Look man, I don't believe that God exists as you say."
"Why do you say that?" asked the client.
"Well, it's so easy, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God does not exist. Oh, tell me, if God existed, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be no suffering nor pain. I can't think of loving a God who permits all of these things."
The client stopped for a moment thinking, but he didn't want to respond as to cause an argument. The barber finished his job and the client went out of the shop. Just after he left the barber shop he saw a man in the street with a long hair and beard (it seems that it had been a long time since he had his cut and he looked so untidy).
Then the client again entered the barber shop and he said to the barber, "You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say they don't exist?" asked the barber. "Well I am here and I am a barber."
"No!" the client exclaimed. "They don't exist because if they did there would be no people with long hair and a beard like that man who walks in the street."
"Ah, barbers do exist, what happens is that people do not come to me."
"Exactly!"- affirmed the client. "That's the point. God does exist, what happens is people don't go to Him and do not look for Him. That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."
This is a classic.
Good one

@@g1android11 How? I completely understood it. Things don’t happen for you unless you do your part first. That’s what the client was explaining to the barber about God.

You amaze me the way you deal with people, how you expound the word
One of the guys said “something we will never know”. We have an assurance, God has made himself known. If you haven’t felt Him that close before give it time and be soft enough to change perspectives of who God is and what He can do in your life.
I am confused by your statement, and I do know.
John 16:33
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
This guy, the first or only, ask awesome questions. The ONLY way we can know that we humans have a "hopeless problem", that we have no ability at all to detect on our own. Outside of direct revelation there would have no way to know we were missing something we never had, that being a living spirit directly connected to His Spirit as we were created to be. This kid is a sharp thinker period. I pray God draw him and resurrect his spirit. He's a seeker without a doubt.
This guys speech makes me question if there is a god, and I believe
I'm an atheist to the point that I can't understand how anyone could read the Bible and/or listen to preaching and still honestly believe.

@@esmereldasnickles8056 Its pretty Simple we just have more evidence on how these elements are formed it's the goal of scientific research to provide evidence on those makers. Religion doesn't have this which is why so many people just cannot get into religion the whole thing is about belief and how they believe in something when there's no evidence to back any of this stories besides written sources from thousand's of years ago which for all we know could've been written by creative minds. We live in a world where writers have created whole worlds from Middle Earth, Star Wars Galaxy, Star Trek and it's many cultures and fictional alien religions to name a few. It's not hard to believe that many religions are just nothing more than stories. As a massive fan of religion i went to a Catholic and did really well in Religion which we had to take but i never really believed in it was far more interested in the ancient gods of the Greeks and the Romans along with the Egyptians which i found more interesting and creative and honestly more believable in some ways. Overall yeah there not really delusional some people just need a little bit more evidence to get onboard i know many people who are really into science but still believe in god of course in their own way as they also have a better understanding of science than the average believer.
Your videos have been a blessing to me. I’ve watched dozens of them over the last week. Thank you for what you do.
My answer to the question written in the title is this. The reason why there is so much pain and suffering is because the ones experiencing the pain and suffering have rejected the only one who can heal them from both. The irony is that while pain and suffering was caused by Adam through his sin, the Messiah helps us by healing us first and then learning how to live in spite of the pain and suffering around us, and then become a witness to show others how to overcome the pain and suffering.

These videos give me so much hope. Especially with the climate that exists towards God on college campuses and campuses in general. It makes me so excited to see people genuinely curious about God and asking questions. It opens the door. I love it! I dont think theres winning an argument, theres salvation and thats the goal, to lead people to Christ and this is the way. Great conversations, dialogue and questions. Praying to God that there will be a radical awakening on these campuses among these students and that they experience the true love of God because it transforms. You can even see how him telling people about the love God has for them brings hope. His name alone has power and you can see it in all of these conversations.

Jesus didn't say that we will not be suffering before he went back to heaven, he have told us that we will have tribulations, and to be of good cheer, he have overcome the world, we have to share in his sufferings, because Jesus did suffer when he was on earth, many hated him, and said he wasn't God! and he was rejected and betrayed, and was tempted by the devil and was spat on, etc... then killed on the cross for our sins! it's the devil's world! of course this world is of pain and suffering, but Jesus is coming back soon to change this world for much better! amen!.

God gave man free will. The suffering is created by man, not by god.
By that logic free will is a curse. At heaven you won't even think about sinning right? So does that mean no free will? And if free will is a blessing that means that Earth is better than heaven.
@@drcola143 In Heaven we will be in the presence of complete perfection. We will lack nothing. We'll have everything we need and we'll have everything we want.
We'll still have free will, but we won't want to sin and we won't feel the need to sin because God is right before our eyes and He has given us EVERYTHING we could ever hope for.
People sin to gain. Money, power, women, dopamine, etc. When you lack nothing, why sin? It's as simple as that.
@@TheMidnightModder Maybe God should have just put us in heaven in the first place.
@@TheMidnightModder mmm, not really. By that logic that means you are capable of sinning, but choose not too. But in heaven isn't it impossible to sin?
Also, why have an Earth then? Why can't God just start us in heaven
@@drcola143 It does make sense, you're just not giving it thought.
Forced love is not love. God wants us to love Him unconditionally so He puts us at arms distance away so we can properly use our free will to decide if we want to love Him or not. Then if we Choose to be with Him we will be in Heaven.
without the choice to choose evil, our love for God means nothing
Absolutely not true. True love for God is faith in HIS redemption through His Son (which is GIVEN as a GIFT FROM GOD). Without this redemptive gift, your so-called "love" for God is a lie and has ZERO bearing on a so-called personal "choice" to choose evil OR good which you do not understand is SOVEREIGNLY DECIDED. Jesus expressly said "You did NOT CHOOSE ME, I chose you". You'll find this sentiment OVER AND OVER from the very Son of God and His Apostles.

The first young man really seems to be seeking/researching and didn't quote a single meme. I'm praying for him, now.
The word "meme" was invented by Richard Dawkins in his first book "The Selfish Gene", and the word means, an idea that is passed from one human to another in the same way a virus is spread. Therefore, Cliffes argument that "every human is flawed and the only way to fix yourself is with jesus" is a meme itself. Probably the original meme that Richard Dawkins was referring to. So, just understand that the viral spread of ridiculous religious ideas, was the reason for the invention of the word "meme". Knowledge is power.

The argument that all of us are flawed is factual, memes don’t necessarily have to be factual in fact they tend to be humorous the majority of the time.

The very reason why there was so much chaos in our world is because we are living in a fallen world brought about by sin😔
We have nothing to do with the creation/origin of sin, so why do we have to “pay” for the sins of Adam and Eve ?
@@PianoWrecker when sin entered the world through adam it spread and no one is blameless but God provide a way by sending his Son so that whoever believes him will be save👍🏻
And the reason we have sin is because Adam ate from the forbidden fruit that God himself put in the Garden of Eden.
Not only that God knows Everything so he knew Adam would Eat from the Tree of Forbidden Knowledge so how did Adam know it was wrong to Disobey God Since he could not have known it was Wrong until he Had eaten the Fruit
@@leebennett1821 Exactly. 👍
Brilliant talk.. Learnt a lot thank you..
Here’s how I see it, God made us with free will and in doing that there’s an opportunity for sin, he didn’t create it but he allows it as a path from our choices. Same thing when people ask why doesn’t God just show up and prove he is who he says he is. If he did that you’d be overcome by his glory and not really have a choice.
@Devante Randle …
It is one byproduct of choice but not the only byproduct.
Without the ability to choose our behavior then we would be nothing more than robots. Our love for God our anyone would be simply a mechanical response and not real.

What problem was solved?
we are human
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
Nothing is solved? There are a lot of examples of suffering which is not caused by us. Sickness, Birth defects, Volcanoes etc. He just ignored all examples which do not support his own argument.
I Love God
When we tell God to get lost or bug off (however you want to put it) he doesn’t just leave us be because he’s no puppet master or manipulator, he also takes his characteristics/attributes along with him, such as goodness, grace, mercy, love, respect etc this is the reason hell is such a desolate, isolated, evil and lonely place because God isn’t there, people end up there because they want nothing to do with God, and how can someone who can’t stand God here on earth inherit Gods kingdom and dwell with him there in eternity think about it, it’s also why the world is in such perfect order and control because God is a God of order BUT you have people here on earth who reject him and because he’s not going to violate your will your life will reflect his absence (disease, death, etc)because of your not following God your following your own will and fleshly desires which is sin and the wages of sin is death, hope this helped someone understand a lil better - God bless

I really like how he explained everything truly great at it.
Adam and Eve brought sin into the world first. But also the devil roams the earth and causes bad things to happen. And rejecting Jesus as your savior.
Apologetics are great & something we should really all study. But I've never, not once, heard someone say their life got worse by following Christ. Maybe they exist but I haven't ran into one yet. I think God reaches out to every person & the more you start listening, reading the Bible, and thinking upon these things, you start noticing it even more. As someone who just recently came back to faith in my women's bible group said last week, he's always there ready to pick up the phone when you're ready to make that call.
Many atheists feel that because there is so much pain and suffering in the world, that this in some way gets rid of God, as if the elimination of all pain and suffering would prove the existence of God.
But for all we know, a world suffuse with pain and suffering might bring the most people into a saving relationship with God. The point is, we just do not know why God allows pain and suffering. And he is under no obligation to reveal his motives to us. However, since I believe (and many others) that God is the highest imaginable being, and all of his attributes and character can ONLY be good, righteous, pure and without malice and evil; all of God's reasons for doing anyting or allowing anything must come from his loving character, for it is written, “God IS love”.
Aunt Matilda can bake a lovely chocolate cake, and we can analzye all the various characteristics of that cake, its ingredients, its taste, its beauty, and everything we can imagine about that cake; but we will never know why Aunt Matilda baked that cake unless she reveals it to us. Yet, if she chooses not to reveal her reasons for baking that cake, her decision to keep that a secret does not in any way prove that Aunt Matilda does not exist. Nonsense!
And so it is, if God does not decide to reveal anything to us, his decision to be silent does not in any way prove his nonexistence. That too is nonsense!
But the one thing I am completely sure about is that if a Christian is suffering with some terminal illness, and prays for God to heal them, the ultimate healing would be for God to take them to Paradise, where they would enjoy eternal healing. I personally have a terminal illness, and know that God can heal me here on Earth if he so chooses. But I also feel it personally far better for God to take the life I now have in this mortal, weak, natural body; and bring me to Paradise in an eternal, glorified, spiritual body; free from all pain, suffering, death, sorrow, etc.

It is actually impossible to logically justify atheism, as according to that worldview all “logic” is just solely a man’s personal opinion based on random patterns and paths that molecules and matter take in your brain according to Physics, the laws of logic don’t even work in atheism because we have no higher standard to compare them with nor justify them from.

God doesn't just step back, He down right punished us for disobeying Him. He said that you CANNOT take from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and that if you do, I will punish you with death and disease, Adam and Eve flipped him off and gave into temptation at the "hands" of the Devil and that is what we have now, death and disease.
-if the bible was true then adam and eve did it. Not us.
- it's god's fault for putting the trees there in the first place.
-death already existed. That's why there was a tree of eternal life in the garden. People who live forever don't need to eat anything.
also they weren't 'tempted' by the devil. They were guided to the tree of knowledge by the serpent. Genesis never says the serpent is the devil and god cursed the serpent to walk on its belly, meaning it was a literal snake.

@@xxxod First, the Bible is and always will be true. Second, yes, Adam and Eve committed the original sin of which God punished the entire human race to be born with original sin. Third, death may have been a thing but God made it so man could eat of the tree of Eternal Life and took that away as punishment, therefore making it so every human on this earth to surely die. One other thing, disease didn't exist until man disobeyed. Fourth, GOD DOES NOT MAKE MISTAKES AND NOTHING IS HIS FAULT!!! Fifth, it states specifically that the Devil possessed the snake because it was the most susceptible to possession, and that is also why the serpent was punished, for allowing the Devil to take over.

I believe it was 10.26.2017 when he posted his final spreadsheet numbers. I was impressed! Then I had observed what he used as the value of Phi. Within 4 hours I posted a proof that reestablished the status of Pi as a transcendental number. He ignored me completely and soon after closed down his YT channel. Do you understand the philosophical reasoning behind his proof, and the impact of the epiphany I had that turned his applecart upside-down?

Remember when you were a small child and about to do something wrong, but you felt that little tug at your heart that told you "NO"? That was the spirit trying to guide you... Or when you were older and trying to figure out something difficult but you just couldn't and finally it occurs to you, so as to make you say "oh yeah! Why didn't i think of that before?" - because HE just gave it to you. We say that because it seems so simple when the answer is perfect. That's how we know what comes from our Father, by it's perfection. When we don't listen we say things like "something was telling me" or "i had a gut feeling" but really this is how God communicates with every life form. Remember what Jesus said, "consider the birds of the field, they neither reap nor sow yet our Father feeds them" and HE can cause them to see a worm in the grass from the highest treetops. How much more can HE cause us to see? How much more important are we than the birds? When we get a big flow of information/understanding, we call it an "epiphany" and it can change your whole life. Learn to clear your mind. Learn your types of thoughts. Don't give any time to negative thoughts or thoughts that don't help you. "The Spirit is the true teacher" and as long as you're wrapped up in the world, you'll never hear HIM. ❤️🙏

Pain and suffering is to make us stronger.
Grow up 😅 That's ridiculous.
that which lives cannot die and that which is dead cannot live, God knows pain and suffering but he can only experience it through you
God knows pain and suffering from experience. Jesus suffered all kinds of pain, temptation, humiliation.
Real simple folks! Wages of sin is death! God made you! Jesus saves sinners like you and I!
Of all the "intellectual" arguments for Christ as the begotten Son of God, none is more powerful than the death of the apostles. A person may (as have others throughout history) have died for an erroneous belief. But they were witnesses. They lived with Jesus. They KNOW if what they wrote is true or is false because they SAW it. They proclaimed Jesus as God. They did so and did not become rich or to gain friends or to get hot women. They did become "famous" but many of their writings admitted their personal flaws, which is statement against interest for becoming "admired historical figures". All they needed to do is state that Jesus was NOT God and they would have avoided being murdered (martyred). But knowing Christ, they refused to deny Him and were executed for it. They died testifying to their knowledge when a simple denial of truth would have meant they get to live. No man would knowingly die for a lie. Powerful stuff.
Amen.

@@theoskeptomai2535 There can be no doubt that Jesus of Nazareth existed - the historical evidence is clear. Much in the same way we know President Lincoln and Socrates existed.

Life was not meant to be easy. God sees your suffering and he wants you to be humble all the way through. The devil wants to hand us gold on a platter but at a certain horrible cost of losing our souls to him.
Hmmm, what about God’s life. He’s is an omnipotent being who lives a perfect life without suffering, yet is still humble, which means you could still be humble without suffering.
But life was originally meant to be easy wasn’t it? Didn’t god give us everything we needed in the garden of eden? And everything was “perfect”? And there was no suffering or pain or death, since all of those things were caused by the fall of man?

Because we know we can learn from the mistakes of others, as well as our own, we therefore treasure up those insights which we have obtained, that tell us to not do those same things that are mistakes that others have made.
Clearly we do not need the people who mistakenly believe the world is flat, to teach us with their mistake that the world is round.
But there is a mistake they make which is a danger to all. And its this.
They have allowed their desire to be important to get the better of them, so much so, that they serve as an example of what’s possible if you lose your analytical ability.
They are no longer in a position whereby they can be reasoned with, although they continue every day to believe they are possessors of great critical thinking.
The overwhelming conclusion we can arrive at, is this.
Beware of the self, if it tarries too long, drinking from the wine of self importance. Because this has destroyed them. It’s not their mad flat earth but the vino.
The danger in telling others that they are great, is, they can turn into alcoholics of the worst kind, who want more and more wine of self importance. They get hooked on the stuff and can’t live without it.
These are people who have lost their minds. They can not and will not entertain any rationality that opposes their belief in the flat earth. They won’t look into it.
They want the earth to be flat. But that’s not where it’s at is it. Let the earth be whatever the earth be, not what you want it to be. Right? We all get that don’t we, except for the flat earth brigade. They can’t get it. That’s how far gone they are.
But let’s not just pick on the flat earthers. Let’s be fair. We must include the atheists. Let’s analyse them. Or perhaps we shouldn’t bother. It’s way too tedious. But notice the similarities.
The atheists are biased. They want God to not exist. And they become offended with this accusation and say nay friend we are open to believe. And they actually believe this to be true, because they think its true. They actually think they are ok with the idea of God’s existence and would happily believe it, if only someone could just prove it. That’s where those guys are at.
It’s the same as the flat earth people who outrageously say in the face of blinding evidence, where is the evidence? Ring any bells? The atheist do exactly the same by saying that all of the incredible evidence isn’t actually evidence at all.
And because the great whale in the sea hasn’t got a stamp on him saying made by God, they excitedly exclaim God didn’t make that great fish who dives deeper than a submarine.
Can an atheist or a flat earther be reasoned with? Maybe. But it hasn’t happened yet? Only God can do that. If you think you can rescue a flat earther with logic you better think again. That doesn’t work on them. But neither does it work on atheists. Don’t waste your time or your breath. They are never going to get it. It’s because they feel very important for not being a schmuck that believes in God. But the real biggie is not being inferior to God and all His greatness. That’s the real pump up for them. But don’t talk to them about this. They’ll never get it in a million years. Ever!!!
