I lost my wife after last week, we just got married in December 2022, she had high blood pressure and had complications when giving birth, leaving me with our first son, I want to keep fighting for him but I am feeling so defeated, we prayed and prayed for God to save her but she still passed, keep us in your prayers 🙏
See youre on your own. Its awful that stuff like that happens but it sadly does. Keep your head up high and fight on. Youll come out a better human in the end and you can absolutely do it.
You've got this man. It will be hard at times, no doubt, but you will get through it. Stay strong and faithful. Appreciate what you have. Love what you have. You're in my prayers 🙏🏼
"May God give me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, courage to change the things i can, and the wisdom to know the difference", can pretty much solve 99% of people's problems.
Actually, it is more of what God can’t allow himself to do and it is also the answer for the question of why does God let bad things happen. Many would readily and vehemently disagree, but God does not have an actual plan for the world. What he does have is hope for the world through his endowment of free will. God does not know the future, but he does know the infinite number of possibilities required for his gamble on ‘free will’ to succeed. Interfering with that would alter the delicate balance of the human condition equivalent of the ‘Goldilocks Effect’.

Yes my brother 👦 god is the only god he puts things on you it may be stress and hard things that you think u can’t mange but tbh god said that everything that he puts on you but god knows u can manage ~^😊
I'm an atheist but this is by far the best advice that is applicable to anyone. No matter how cruel our life is, we have to hold firm in our values and strive for ourselves and those whom we hold dear. no need to curse god or fate or even ourselves, try our fullest. thank you so much for this video 😊
@@thuynguyenthikim7599 I mean you're not wrong. But sometimes when the pain is too much to bear, we kinda have to accept it and feel a bit detached from it first before we can even begin to solve it rationally. And of course as you said, simply enduring the problems head-on without changing any strategies or solutions is also not good.
@@Ayanamiame idk, i just don't bear the pain at all, two of my relative died and I just don't care, telling myself that "they've already been no use for my development anymore" and I live happily
This helped. I lost my wife to cancer two weeks ago from this past Tuesday. I'm going through all of those emotions, asking why, getting angry, being loaded with grief, getting distant, coming back again, all in a jumbled cycle. I have to keep reminding myself that Jesus came not to fix this world, but to allow us into enter a totally new existence where pain, suffering, sorry, all the evil is no more, for eternity, from this very short, temporary vapor of a life. I have to keep reminding myself that my wife is experiencing the glory and it's just a matter of a short time before I am with her in glory. *"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us."* _-- Romans 8:18_
welll "if life were predictable it would erase to be life, and be without flavor" -Elarnor Roosevelt and All human are do Bad/Horrible thing bcuz they choice to even a Good person, well sometime you need to do thing that can break the ego/comfort to be realistic and open your eyes, God doesn't first people live a happily even they like it or not, God want us resilience, power(in to overcome the evil), courage and Strength and sometime God is to do opposite of thing that you like and outside control bcuz if you are wotrhy to Live that you want and thing Than God why the evil is exist and Human also are the evils one too
there are 2 types of terrible things, one that comes from natural soruce or cause, another that comes from people,objects controlled by people. Now we need to stop blaming God for the evil done by people/humans. now the other (natural source )is God trying to test you ,your patience, strength and faith.
Great job. I'm under a heavy spiritual attack at the moment, and your videos bring me comfort. God feels far away, but he's there like the sun is there behind dark clouds. You know how it is. Bad things tend to happen in bunches. My mom's cat got eaten by a coyote. Business has slowed. A friend has betrayed me, and I got scammed by a vanity press to the tune of $5,700. (The novel I'm trying to publish is about how I got sober and found God. The devil wants to stop it at all cost.) I was feeling low. Re-watching this video has snapped me back from depression. Thanks.
@@norikotheguardian Well, may God bless you. We're ALL mentally to some degree. There's not one human being on the planet that isn't neurotic on some issue. Money is tight. I pray you find a way to make ends meet. I'm 59 years old and have a manual labor job at a wearhouse. I'm fortunate to pay my bills, but I'm only a paycheck away from poverty. You're not alone! Good luck. I'll pray for you.
Hey dude. I've been struggling with my faith. Family is extremely Catholic, with no argument allowed whatsoever, and obviously the society we surround ourselves with today is mostly Atheist, with facts and logic backing up their beleifs, while I was taught, "Its just God, can't question it." Your art is helping me figure out the WHY. Why I should beleive, why we feel the way we do about our beleifs, and it's helped me be more confident in myself and my beliefs. I appreciate you and the work you do. ✌️
Amen. Thank you for this comment my friend... its a big encouragement. If you ever have any questions, just fire them off... I've been there. Peace friend. 🙏
Highly recommend continuing to research the answers to your questions man, using Catholic sources in your searches. Never stop searching--Ask God for guidance with humility, a softened heart, and childlike trust. Also, I recommend praying 3 Hail Mary's every single day asking Mother Mary for Her intercession, as well praying to St. Joseph for his help too! God bless you.
Thank God every day that you are Catholic! read a chapter of the OT and NT daily, pray, meditate, pray the Rosary which is a meditation on Christ's life, read the early church fathers. fast, give alms...these actions will take you directly to God.

The idea that Christ suffers with us, mourns for us, is brokenhearted when we are broken hearted. That has helped me through very hard times. It doesn't make the sadness go away, but it does remind us of our importance to God. That he cares. And even more than just caring, he feels what we feel. He stops to our level to weep alongside us. And he reassures us that in the end he will be victorious, and none of this suffering will be for naught.
Our minds are truly a puzzle. We can be creative in our own ways. We see people around the world starving but we don’t do anything for them. They cant do anything for themselves which is truly pitiful. But we don’t have to though. Suffering is a real thing which can only come victorious until the end of time.
@@Eric-ej3oyContinue to read the word of God, and talk with him, communicate with him, and share your feelings and thoughts with him. One thing i have definitely learned, and that is super helpful, is not to worry about ‘not’ sinning, instead, focus on Jesus and his word. You cannot get rid of darkness by focusing on darkness, you can only get rid of darkness by focusing on the light, get it? You will only grow by reading, obeying, repenting, and communicating with God. Don’t worry about all the wrong you’re doing, bc it is not your works that matter, instead, it is your relationship with God that matters. Ill tell you right now, you will naturally start to change when you do these things, you cannot change on your own and gain peace on your own, you will only start to get these things when you apply Gods word in your life. Having this connection with God will cause you to naturally gain the fruits of the spirit which is: Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. Because God will bless you with his Holy Spirit ✝️💝💝💝✝️. I hope and pray this helped you! God bless you!
This argument is null and void for me, because God never became a human. Jesus looked like a human, but he never had to wrestle with the question of if God is real or not. He never had to wonder if God hated Him and was actually using Him as a plaything, to torture and laugh at and keep stretching to see how long it takes to break Him. That’s what I have to wonder everyday. God never struggled like me. Jesus never knew the true loneliness and despair and emptiness that I feel everyday. Jesus KNEW his entire life that He was God, and nothing that happened mattered because He’s God and He’s just gonna be God again when the little people “kill” Him. If Jesus was actually just a “normal” human, who was God but didn’t know it, and still remained innocent and sinless and performed miracles and took on the sin of the world anyway, THEN God could say that He knows what it’s like to be human from experience. But that’s NOT the case. God essentially cheated. He never fully became human, He never truly had to deal with our hardest struggles. The “hardest” thing He dealt with was dying, but even while He was dying He knew for a fact beyond any shadow of a doubt that He was going to Heaven and regaining His “God-ness”. Does any Christian truly know they’re going to Heaven in such a way? No. And they couldn’t possibly. Some may have successfully deluded themselves into the belief, but ironically all of them have different ideas of what Heaven actually is, so you can’t really say this belief was revealed to them by God, otherwise the picture of Heaven would be the same. But I digress; the main point of this comment is, God does not understand my pain, He does not weep with me because He cannot understand it, and the reason He cannot understand it is not because He’s incapable as an all-powerful being, obviously. The reason is that He is God, and not a human, and He knows of His own existence, He doesn’t have to wish and hope and gaslight himself into belief in the face of overwhelming evidence pointing to his non-existence. He simply does not know what it’s like to be a human, and nothing Jesus went through on Earth changes that fact. The most I’ll admit to is that God did a good acting job.
My mother was complaining about headaches on Saturday and we took her to the Hospital immediately, fast forward to Monday she cant remember stuff and finds it hard to speak, i wept , as tough as i thought i was i couldnt stop myself from weeping, funny enough i found your video on "Talkin with God and not to Him" i think , on sunday and addded it to my watch later and watched it on monday at night while bawling my eyes out, i tried praying for the first time in a while and ive been praying ever since, watching this current video peace just flowed into my heart, shes getting better now , may God bless you sir

Why does God allow? Answer = God has given mankind 6,000 years to Self-Govern from Adam's choice. Mankind was given the Bible on how to stop Self-Governing choice of mankind and follow God instead but, mankind never has and thus, learning the hard way, is mankind's agenda then, stopping and listening and following God. Once the 6,000 years is over, mankind's allowed freewill, will be removed by Jesus when he returns and Gods way will be forced upon all on the Earth for, 1k years = Mankinds Sabbath = Rest Period from mankind's childish ways.

@@I_AM_ALMIGHTY_GOD_FATHER_SATAN 1. Father in Heaven is called Father for his family name is called "GOD". God, has never been a first name. 2. Only 2 beings are in the family name called God = Father of it and Lord Jesus the Christ. *3. "God" family name stands for "Authority". When God told us, Satan the Devil is the God of this world, that did not mean he is in the God family name, he is what God stands for and that is Authority. 4. By Adam's choice between the 2 teachers of Jesus and Satan (Satan is not a name, but a title which means enemy) in the Garden of Eden, freewill aka to self-Govern = Adam picked that over following God for Satan conned him into the means to create ruin upon himself and all others after him = A domino effect. 5. Outside mankind's doors now, is the result of mankind allowed to self-Govern than to follow The God Family. 6. Satan is teacher for 6,000 years (time limit God placed. Which, is almost up) and created inventions into mankind's minds to create a sinful existence for all that will lead mankind to suffer/die in. 7.

What is this rubbish? Self govern? We ended up nearly from the start, afraid, or curious, about other gods. That is NOT self governing. Nor were we united. Not since Babel (if it happened) and you have no, evidence, of that, so far. Nor of the Exodus either, at present. And TWO PEOPLE who did NOT KNOW good from evil, or bad - is not 'mankind'. Nor are they 'governing'. Or if they are, they are 'governing us' by one impulsive choice, unaware of stakes to others? Or that even heaven... had proven, to be less than harmonious, perfect, or fully stable? (or at least, the angelic realm) The one place sin, and desire to sin, and confusion, and unhappiness, or suicidal, pride - was surely, LEAST likely, to debut, or arise. Also, 6000 years - counting, from when? When the Black Sea first arose? Sorry, that's more like 8000 years, currently. Maybe from Gobekli Tepe? No, that's like, 11,000, at present.

Please consider this scenario: A man is waiting at a crosswalk of a busy intersection. He hears the cries of a terrified mother behind him. Turning around, he sees a toddler running in his direction, giving every sign the child will run past him and bolt into traffic. Now the man realizes that he could effortlessly extend his hand and stop the toddler, saving the child's life. He also understands stopping the child will prevent the untold heartaches of a mom watching her child horribly die, the trauma of the striking motorist, and the grief of every witness, relative and friend. Instead the man freely chooses to do nothing. Brakes screech, vehicles collide, lives are ruined and one is lost. The crosswalk light changes, and the man simply walks around the carnage and continues on his way, thinking "I will do the same in the future." Do you think he acted reasonably? Did he show any empathy or compassion? And a simple yes/no moral question: _Is the man who let a child horribly die evil?_
if i were to set my wife (who i love very very much) on fire, do i love her? most theists answers are “well u never loved her in the first place if u did that.” so that means god never loved us if he’s willing to send us to burn and be tortured eternally hell. god is evil
@@humbleevidenceaccepter7712 Well in human eyes he could have done something and is some form of evil/cowardly. But thats was his free will to make in the Bible talks about sacrificial love. And that we are not saved by works alone so even if he choose to save the child’s life or not we are all evil in some form of way so in humans eyes even if he did save the child he’s a hero. But I’m Gods eyes we’ve all feel short of the glory of good and have to repent of are sins. And if that man in your scenario was truly good he would have read the Bible about sacrifice and saved that child. Just like how Jesus died on the cross for us It was SACRIFICIAL LOVE.
@@hakeemmickoy4417 Thanks for the reply. Your answer is that the man is "evil" because he needlessly allowed a child to die a horrible death and caused untold suffering among many other people. He had the power to effortlessly prevent all that trauma and heartache but capriciously chose not to. All moral people agree he is a monster. A follow up question: _Why would you worship a god who also could prevent needless accidents, catastrophes, earthquakes, hurricanes, famines, etc., but capriciously chooses not to?_ Why worship such a monster?
I’m an orthodox Christian but this helped me a lot, this message was very powerful and I can really understand now, I can feel like I’m getting closer to God

@@a.39886 God did not create sin. Man entered it into the world when they first chose to disobey God’s command. The consequences are God being a just God and not allowing wrongdoing to go unpunished. The video tried to get that across in the question of “How do you respond to sin and evil?” Are you going to do nothing or even complain about it? Or are you going to fight it with love and charity? Just because we don’t believe in God’s existence doesn’t change the fact that he is there.
Multiple streams of tears came out of my eyes uncontrollably. This is so life-changing. I really didn't pay attention to God in my life, now I want to read the whole Bible, and clean my life up
The Quran is deceiving. It talks about God (but in their sense of how they view God not the true God) but doesn’t talk about Jesus being the only begotten son of God, Our messiah and savior. And thats dangerous cuz people don’t believe in Jesus when he is the only way to eternal life. Muslim replace Jesus(sinless, perfect) with their prophet Muhammad (which was sinful) when Muhammad is no where comparable with Jesus.
Your grandfather has moved very far away from this existent and when he left, he did not leave material belongings but also relationships but I am sure during his existent, he loved you very much
My best friends wife passed today. She was saved. We are Christians. However it was hard for me to explain why these things happen to people of faith like us to my friend who just lost his wife. He’s not angry. His faith is strong but still just doesn’t understand. To be honest I understand sit it’s still hard and I mourn too so hard it’s hard to come up with what to say. This put it in to perspective soooo well. Thank you for making this. God bless you. I already miss her so much. My heart breaks for my friend but even more for the 7 and 9 year old children she leaves behind. I know she is in the arms of Jesus now and no longer suffering. Cancer is terrible and can come for us all but Gods grace and our future with him is everlasting. Glory to God.
@@11valdano I believe in God. But God is not love, is a cosmic horror. It's you who are mistaken and have not grasped his true intentions and message. Pay attention to his actions, not to the words of mortals who want to convince you of the righteousness of a senseless conclusion.
I have been struggling with religion a lot recently but I have just now discovered your channel and I have to say that I am brought to tears, your videos are moving and touching. They gave me hope to continue living in God's world and embrace Jesus, thank you.
Religion will give you unnecessary burden don't make Christianity a religion make it a way of life the life were you dont think you know that God will never let anything happen to you unless it us your time and in his will he will give you peace in suffering and joy in hardship a life where you dont find comfort in fake lives on the Internet but find comfort in a being higher than our understanding he will help you but you need to go through hardships just keep holding on buddy you can do it Jesus loves you
Im crying… I’m crying over this… I’m so tired… so tired of fighting alone… suffering alone… I’ve begged for help but nothing… I’m broken…And now I’ve lost one of my biggest angels… And I don’t know what to do… I’m… so sad and tired of everything- But thank God for show me this… Thank you so much 💔
You might not think he’s listening. God does not come with the roar of a lion. He comes with the soft steps of a lamb. You might not hear him now, but listen closely. Look at the doors he opens. I promise you he’s listening and when times are hard look around you. He is everywhere. One night I really thought I might kill myself. I walk to the gas station to pick up an Arizona ice tea and probably make a decision on if I was going to hurt myself when I got back home. But I never got home. The gas station attendant asked me not to leave. She told me I looked sad and asked me to sit with her and talk. So I did, all night. God answered my prayers. He found someone to pull me out of a depressive episode, and he didn’t need to speak to me once. He let his creations sort it out.
I have to say I find myself coming back to this video from time to time. This topic was the reason that despite growing up in a Catholic family, I never had faith myself. I always wondered why some people, despite disaster and suffering, had a strength and light inside them that was unwavering. I wished I could be someone like this. Seeing God working through people moved me in such a way that I am now Christian. I am thankful for my beginnings because I needed to find the faith myself, on my own. Today I come back to this video after everything going on in this world. I see the suffering and pain of innocent people and I know God is keeping them close. We do not understand evil and cannot but we can understand mercy, compassion and love for your neighbor. II Timothy 1:7
The Bible does provide an answer to this question. It is the failure of the churches that people don't understand why there is suffering. Would you like to know? I can show you from the Bible.
@@Pj-fm7oe agreed. I believe it is simple. He never told us to be evil. He never told us to do things to innocent people. He created us to give us the choice, and gave us advice. He still constantly gives us the platform, guidance and the ability to do better, so how is this His fault?He created the world TO be perfect, but the only ones who destroyed it was us. people mistaken God for- " if I believe in Him, everything in my life will be perfect and I'll never be sad." but that isn't the point. we'll never know perfection as long as we're on this earth. I know it's hard, and I've lost many people myself but in the end we can't escape the reality of the world. nothing is ever perfect here and we have to accept it. He warned us about it for a reason.
@@spencer0417 Absolutely you may, let me know if you still have questions. The simple answer is rebellion, Adam and Eve followed Satan into rebelling against God. They Had everything they needed, perfect bodies, ready food supply, easy enjoyable work (fill the earth, name the animals) and would live forever in the paradise they were given. God only had a single rule, being God and the creator he certainly has the right to make rules, He told them not to eat from his tree. “From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.” Genesis 2:16,17 They had no need for food, no want of any kind, God was not denying them in some way. So simple was his rule that it was more a show of loyalty, a simple act of obedience to show recognition of God's authority. The sovereign of the universe could if he wanted demand anything of his own creation and they would owe him obedience, but he didn't make any such burdensome demands. Satan saw the situation with the first human pair as an opportunity, he fooled Eve and Adam joined her willingly. They ate the fruit and became sinners and rebels. That original sin corrupted humans, imperfection cannot pass on perfection. "That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned" Romans 5:12 Sin causes death and sin is passed on through the man (that is why Jesus could be born of a imperfect human mother and still be perfect, he did not have a human father, so no sin was passed to him). The sin was the cause, however the reason is equally important. "At this the serpent said to the woman: “You certainly will not die. For God knows that in the very day you eat from it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and bad." Genesis 3:4,5 Satan (the serpent is Satan talking see Rev 12:9) claimed that God was withholding good from them, then he claimed that they would "know good and bad" like God. So part of his lie is that people can decide good and bad, not follow God's rules but make their own. So he slandered God's motives, and implied that they would be better off on their own. That is the origin of the rebellion. It is the universal issue that all that all of this is actually about, sovereignty, the right to rule, who makes the rules or decides good and bad. It is a universal issue because the angels are also involved, up until the flood Satan tempted the angels to join him and some did. The flood was to put an end to them taking physical bodies and reproducing with the daughters of men (Gen 6:2). Those rebellious angels are called demons. Like a court case the issue of sovereignty takes time to settle. God gave the angels time to show loyalty or rebel before the flood. Then he gave us his son and the Bible so we can understand what is going on. Then time was allowed for the nations of man to rule without interference, where every conceivable type of government has been attempted. The results of man's rulership are what you see around you, it has been an utter failure. All the suffering you see is an attempt to prove that man can figure it out without God. But it is not possible for man to rule himself successfully. "I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step." Jerimiah 10:23 We are now waiting for the fulfillment of the promises. The time to prove has passed, the issue is settled and very soon God will execute justice just as he did in Noah's day. Never again will people suffer, conditions will return to what God intended from the beginning. A paradise earth forever filled with obedient happy people. No one can alter God's purpose, it was merely delayed to answer the issue, it will happen. "Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, And they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." Psalms 37:10,11 "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:3,4

This is me. I've been consistently sick for 3years with the worst pain and suffering known to man.. I've been keeping faith and trusting God for healing till recently.. just like job in the bible I lost so much and my body can't endure any longer.. I'm now asking God the same things as I've been trying my best to please him and even in paralytic conditions try my best to attend church or listen to preachings and do his word because realistically he's my only hope . I have lost faith completely and my prayer life is all bad now and when I try to even pray I go down to serious tears and doubt because of the Terrible experiences I've had these past 3years with fake prophets and pastors.. anyway I needed this because in my heart I still do believe.. and I think he answered me through your content.. Thank you and God bless you ❤
@Sleekie I pray🙏🏽 You come to know and experience and Live in HIS Healing.. the Full and Complete Healing that ONLY GOD can give. ❤ I just wanted to say.. that you are being used by God.. even right now. Your words show.. that our faith, our believing, comes From a place of Love.. And that we can even Still HAVE Hope.. Only through having LOVE.. That we Cannot, when we let Hate OR bitterness take over our heart... And that YOU, my brother, have so much Love inside yourself, Still.. that it remains. Your faith remains! May GOD Bless you for not giving in to any bitterness!.. Even when we Feel lost.. and have NO words but only tears.. Only silence.. Like this video is saying, OUR Tears, Our Silent Brokenness is as a Prayer to HIM Who hears us from within our hearts.... The bible speaks about having faith, hope and love.. and that The Greatest of These, is LOVE. And YOU Are Living Proof, brother, that even in long suffering.. yet Today.. God IS that Love. That Love IS very God Within us. That it's Love. That is what sees us through! God's Word tells us that HE Sticks Closer than a brother... You are Proof of that with your own words. I pray your strength to Continue, my brother, and I thank you for your message.. I thank God for YOU, and I pray, that like Job,.. YOU Will Recover ALL and even more. ❤ God bless you!!

In Sikh temples we serve anyone for free, spreading love to our community. It is a collaboration between to uphold love. I’ve been going less than I should. This made me remember why I needed to. The love I felt not only in helping others, but in the solidarity and love directed towards myself. That no matter how hard life seems, as long as I can find the strength to love, I can overcome any struggle. This serves as a inspiration to deepen my connection with God. For that, you have my sincerest gratitude.
Yes, In my life of 74yrs. I have been like Job though never rich in God’s Creation. I have been in that deep hole that everything begins to lookup. A look up that I look up with a grief/confusion I cannot conceive where to begin. I have looked everywhere in my hole to find compassion, the compassion Job found in Our GOD. I have been in and out(?) so often that my answer will come at my judgement, if the Judge knowing my “why” will answer me. Patience is a trying grace, one I ask for too often, if that is conceivable, yet I must ask. Thank you for reminding me of my brother Job. Someday… perhaps the days of eternity I will taste and see the Goodness of the LORD. O, Amazing Grace!!!🙏❤️🙏
But the question wasn't answered. It just boils down too "because you don't know as much as me, you don't deserve an answer." We are expected trust unconditionally because it's all we really can do not because it makes any kind of sense. It's the epitome of "because I said so"
The message I got from this is we as Christian’s are the answer, to live like Christ and follow his teachings we can share the spirit we are gifted to share with others. The answer is also the solution, for us to bare the evil with our neighbors and to inspire them through our works. As long as all glory goes to Jesus
Lately something that I’ve been doing a lot of is research into not only my own beliefs but those of others and really delving into the Bible. I was suggested this video from TH-cam and out of curiosity I clicked to watch. I love that you started off with the example of Job and his life. But what amazes me is that as much as his story is brought up, most people seem to ignore the biggest parts of Job’s story. When reading this it not only gives us the answer to the question posed in the title of this video but, when you began to conclude by saying you don’t know the answer, nor do you think anyone else does it somewhat baffled me. Why? To start let’s ask another question, why did Job have such things happen to him? As you stated at the open correctly, he was a prosperous and respected man, loved and known as a faithful man of integrity. God took note of that, but so did Satan. Satan accused that the only reason that Job was so faithful was because he had been blessed and protected by God. (Job 1:9-11) He then raised a challenge by asking the question -- would he still remain faithful if he no longer experienced all the blessings he had received. God then ALLOWED Satan to take away the blessings he had enjoyed (Job 1:12-19) But this did not result in Satan winning his challenge, and at (Job 1:22) we see that Job remained faithful despite suffering this evil that had come upon him by Satan. At (Job 2:3-5) we see he was still faithful to God and so Satan once again raised a challenge, that Job was only faithful because of Gods protection of him. Notably God did not cause the suffering himself*** but he allowed Satan to afflict him, and the limit he gave was that he was not to take his life. (Job 2:6) At (Job 2:10) we see that again despite this new horrible affliction and even his wife telling him to “Curse God and die”, he remained faithful. Many chapters later after his exchanges with those who came to see him at (Job 27:3-6) we see Jobs determination to once again, REMAIN FAITHFUL or to “keep his integrity”. Although he still needed some learning and readjustment to his thinking, which Elihu helped provide before God also spoke to him, he remained faithful and righteous. At (Job 42:12-17) we see that when God stepped in, he removed and undid the suffering Job had experienced, and even doubled all that he had had before. Jobs example ties in with other things including Jesus life. Jesus did not only die as a ransom to save us, but the way he LIVED his life while he was here on earth proved something else. That someone who was perfect could use their free will to serve god and live their life until they die, faithfully. Jesus was also tested by Satan while on earth. (Matt. 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13) Through each of those challenges or tests/ temptations he quoted scripture and showed his faith in his father and God. Job was an imperfect man who was tested and challenged to remain faithful. Jesus was a perfect man who was challenged and remained faithful. The importance of Jesus being perfect and remaining faithful is because Adam was perfect and yet when his obedience and faith were challenged, he chose to go against God. True to later form, Satan raised a similar challenge with Eve and Adam as later with Job and Jesus. Eve was told she could decide and know for herself what right and wrong was, and that god was holding something back and these challenges to give up our obedience and faith, and try to do things our way or depend on ourself instead of God is Satans whole motive to separate us. Adam messed up and Jesus had to correct that and answer Satans challenge against our faith to God, but ultimately Gods right as sovereign over all. (Romans 5:12,15,18,19) Jesus example proved that someone perfect could also make the choice to serve God and be obedient and faithful. When he died and cried out (Matt. 27:50; Mark 15:37; Luke 23:46; John 19:30) he had accomplished what he came to do. How does all of this answer the question of why does God allow suffering / evil/ wickedness? Since the beginning of human history with Adam and Eve who chose not to remain obedient and faithful, Satan saw that he could drive a wedge between us and our Heavenly Father. He accused shod of withholding something from them and also said that god was a liar. When Eve took the fruit and disobeyed God, and then Adam shared with her in this, they used their free will to decide for themselves what to do and not listen to god, therefore sin and death entered the world. Job had his very wife and friends who should have supported him, tell him that he was to blame for his suffering and to just “curse god and die”. He chose to be faithful. Jesus even though perfect was still human. He used his free will properly. He was tempted to satisfy himself and do what he wanted and to abuse his powers as gods son, and even to take the Kingdoms of the world and be their ruler. He even rejected it when the Jews tried to make him king and said that his “kingdom was no part of the world”. He remained obedient and faithful, taught others to look to god, teach others about him, pray for gods will to be done, and gave his life to accomplish his role in gods purpose, despite being accused of horrible things like blasphemy, and enduring being beaten and tortured, even saying “it is accomplished” when he died. We too have free will. And just like Adam and Eve, just like Job and just like Jesus, we have choices to make. Even those who don’t know it, if they aren’t following God then they are following Satan. But he’s not concerned with those already following him, he wants no one to serve God, he wants that worship and power for himself. So all this time where suffering has been around in the world it is ultimately a test of us as humans. God is allowing us, although imperfect to choose to follow and worship him. But being the God of love that he is just like the end of Jobs story, he promises to undo everything bad in the future. All of this answers clearly where our evil and suffering comes from, who is causing it (1 John 5:19), why it’s been allowed and what we can do about it. What a privilege we have as faithful humans to give the glory and honor and praise to God. And every time we do it’s a slap in Satans face. (Prov. 27:11) we can be an example that God uses to shut Satan up. Suffering and evil are temporary, but we can prove ourselves faithful and answer Satans challenge. We can endure and overcome the suffering by relying on god for endurance and help and working on ourselves to cultivate the fruitage of the spirit and more. And for us who are faithful and obedient we have a grand future to look forward to, promised by god and will see the fulfillment of his original purpose for humans.
Hey Spencer, I just wanna formerly thank you, so much for taking the time to write this comment. I’m a 17 y/o that struggles with depression that comes and goes, and as I’m writing this, I’m in one of the deepest valleys that I’ve ever been in. My faith in God is so incredibly small, because of so many unanswered questions about Christianity and its origins. These terrible, paralyzing doubts then kinda sneak their way in, doubts like, “What if Christianity was simply made up as a coping mechanism for the hopelessness that is life?” Toppled with the growing number of atheists in the U.S. where I live, who seemingly have plausible reasons for their unbelief. Then if I were to blame said doubts on the enemy, they’re immediately countered with, “well what if that’s just a lie to get you to stay a delusional Christian that only gives money to the church …” and so many other ideas to fill in that blank. It’s like every time I really try to counter these “what-ifs”, there’s no possible thing that I could remind myself of that puts these doubts to silence. It ends up being a huge circle of reminders and making the same points in my head, over and over. The hopelessness is crippling. And yet, something (maybe my own desperateness) tells me there’s hope. I’ve been attempting to rely on God’s Word more and strengthen my faith in things unseen, rather than basing my belief in God on the physical, because there’s just gotta be so much more than that. Anyways, I really just wanted to thank you for sharing this insight. It helps people more than you know. Praying that your faith keeps growing deeper
@@hannahisabelle342 Thank you SO much for sharing! I know it can be very hard to talk about your problems at times, especially when it’s something to do with your beliefs or you have questions, concerns or doubts. There were Bible writers, prophets and others who felt like you. Look at Enoch, Moses, David, Jeremiah, David, Elijah, Peter and Job to name a few. Also just because you’re young- you may find it hard to talk to adults and family but I’ll remind you that Jesus himself was a child when he was ministering in the temple. - *Luke 2:41-50* And also that Jesus personally invited children and young ones to come to him to learn and talk. - *Mark 10: 13-16, Matthew 18:2-5, Matthew 19:13-15, Luke 18:15-17* The humility, mildness, and curiosity of a child, or someone who wants to know things is praised. Also *Psalm 34:8* is a personal invitation for you to “taste and see that God is good.” You may have some questions and doubts at first, or for a while. But you get to find out what kind of God he is for yourself. *Romans 12:2* also encourages you to “prove to yourself, or “verify”, “test”, … the will of God.” So your faith doesn’t have to be blind acceptance or mysterious. You can find out that what God says is true, and beneficial for you. The question posed by this video is a hard hitting one because depending on how people answer - really shows the big groups we have. Agnostics: believe that God MAY exist but just doesn’t seem to care or want to bother with us and we have no proof because he isn’t fixing the suffering and evil we see. Atheists: claim that he CANT exist because the God that’s described in the Bible as a loving, just, caring God could in no way see what’s all going on in the world and continue to allow it. Therefore must not exist and it’s a lie. Or he’s not all powerful and CANT do anything about it even if he does exist. Many “Christians” will say they don’t know why, or that God is “in control” and we can’t question him. He “works in mysterious ways” or that somehow he is all good and all powerful- yet he also must have created and permits evil and suffering and therefore it’s just the way things are. Which still leaves questions honestly and is confusing. *Revelation 12:9* - tells us that Satan/ the “great dragon” was hurled down to the vicinity of the earth. *1 John 5:19* - tells us plain and simply that basically because of that, the “whole world is in the power of the wicked one”. Sometimes, in fact, many times Satan (Gods enemy) IS the cause of a lot of the problems we face. He is definitely the root. *1 Peter 5:8, Revelation 12:12* Other reasons for the different problems we face though are sometimes you can be in the wrong place at the wrong time, it just happened to be that time and place, and you were there. - *Ecclesiastes **9:11**,12* It could simply be an accident that was no one’s fault in particular. An example in Jesus time he refers to *Luke 13:4* , where a tower fell on and killed 18 people. He said they were no more or less guilty than others. *Proverbs 22:8, Galatians 6:7,8* - there are times where it could be a persons own fault, their own actions that get them into a particular situation. A very famous and basic principle that “you reap what you sow”. *Ecclesiastes 8:9, 2 Timothy 3:1-5* are other examples. It be acts of evil from wicked and evil people. They have been throughout history - and in these “last days” it’s only getting worse. We should also expect to endure some hardships and difficulties as servants of God. The road isn’t going to be easy. And if they HATED Christ, they are going to continue to hate his followers.- *John 15:20, 2 Timothy 3:12 Matthew 5:10* And lastly just living in sin and imperfection in this world that we inherited. Sickness, death, growing old, themselves come with many pains and trials. - *Ecclesiastes **7:20**, Romans 3:23, Romans 5:12-14* These are the reasons behind the suffering and evil we face. To add to my original post about *Why God ALLOWS it all* beyond the fact that we are given a chance to prove and show our faith in him, and prove that we support his right to rule, opposite what Satan and Adam and Eve did. God is *ALLOWING* it to go on for a short time because he has told us in his word at *Matthew 24:14, Mark 13:10, Revelation 14:6* that we must preach first before he ends it. Yes we’re dealing with a lot of problems right now BUT, he is giving everyone the chance to get to know him, and come to have faith and hear the message and repent before carrying out judgement. This is a beautiful display of his *LOVE* and *JUSTICE* *Romans 2:4* - he is being kind. *2 Peter 3:9* - he doesn’t want anyone to be destroyed *Habakkuk 2:3* - when this prophet was asking God “how long” would things be allowed to be like they were, he was assured that it would stop but it’s also on Gods timetable not ours. He sees and will make the determination WHEN to stop it finally. Keep up reading your Bible, studying, asking questions and meditating or thinking deeply about things.
@@hannahisabelle342 also I HAVE to respond to what you said about hopelessness. I can empathize with what you’re saying because when questions come up, or you feel like your problems are piling up and you can’t do anything about them, it can be frustrating and feel like a losing battle. Especially when you throw doubts and having your faith questioned. Going back to the example of Job I think it’s fair to say few may be able to relate to the absolute despair and sorrow and depression he must have been feeling. When you read his story just the way it all piled up on him very close together must have been extremely overwhelming. All he could do was sit in the burnt out ashes of a fire, rub them on himself and scrape himself with pieces of a broken pot. Then his “friends” turn on him and aren’t helping him at all. Before they even talk to him they get there and sit with him for days not even saying anything. Just watching him sit there helpless. But one very important thing about Job is that he was NOT *HOPELESS* . *Job **14:13**-15* Job had the HOPE that even if he died, God would remember him and then resurrect him. *Hebrews 11:1* the chapter of Faith- tells us what faith is, and then provides examples of those who had faith and what it allowed them to do. Faith and hope have a VERY close relationship. Faith is an “assured expectation, of what is *hoped* for, the evident demonstration of REALITIES that are not seen”. In other words you could define scriptural faith as the realization that your hope is real. It’s based on evidence. Realities. These evidences and facts are recorded in the Bible and many in that very chapter for us to be reminded of. Abraham and Sarah, Moses, Noah, etc etc etc. A prophecy about Jesus that David wrote in *Psalms 16:8-11* showed that Jesus had hope when he was on earth. Peter talked about this again when he wrote *Acts 2:25-28* *Romans 5:3-5* is a good reason to not feel hopeless. Yes you may deal with a lot at times BUT, enduring it builds up hope, and even says an approved condition or standing before God *James 1:12* again the hope to receive life. There is much more I could say but you many many scriptural reasons to keep your hope and faith alive. Just keep it real to you, no matter what you go through. The very absolute worst thing that can happen in this world is that we die, but God can undo that and resurrect us. And he has promises for the future for his faithful servants. We can have so many more reasons to be *HOPEFUL* rather than *hopeless*.
@@spencer8388 The amount of effort and understanding put into this kind of response just blows me away. Thank you so much for taking the time and opportunity to help encourage me where I’m at. It’s people like you that make it evident that God was never done with me, and never will be. I really really appreciate the ways you’ve compiled so many useful scriptures into an order that emphasizes their importances and connections with each other, which only shows more of how consistent the Bible is. Seriously, thank you so much. This has helped me more than you could imagine.
The Bible: the magical book with all the magical answers. And what is magic other than sleight of hand? Even Christians admit that anyone can get the Bible to say anything. That's why even athiests quote the Bible to disprove the Bible. If the Bible can be made to say anything, in reality it says nothing. To argue that your right hand is actually your left hand is a useless statement.
Amen friend but is all God not me. He’s just using me. Ha. I hear you, I was pretty much an atheist too at one point. Just keep searching for truth. I hope everything is ok. And I wish you peace. Thank you very much for this comment.
Video got me crying. I still haven't studied and read the Bible yet and I am a beginner to Catolicism, but I just want to thank you for your videos, and thank God for creating me, you, and everyone. 🙏
@j drex mocking someone who is on their own spiritual journey isn't a good thing to do. I've been atheist, pagan, Christian...and through all of it I think what struck me the most is how miserable some people are to you trying to explore your inner peace. I hope you find something that brings you peace, if you've not already.
@@IqSteve there isnt anything that leads to there having a higher being, simple as that. In every religion its just fantasy stories that has never been true. Not denying that tehre isnt a higher being but facts right now doesnt indicate there being a higher being
Phillipians 4:6-7 (NIV) - “ Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” ❤️😎🌎✝️ YOU ARE AMAZING AND HAVE AN AMAZING DAY!!! GOD BLESS ⭐️❤️💗💖
This video made me cry😭😭. I've always been a loyal follower of God but I would always begin to question God when it comes to evil. I think I can hold onto the message this video has given to me for the days to come
Actually, it is more of what God can’t allow himself to do and it is also the answer for the question of why does God let bad things happen. Many would readily and vehemently disagree, but God does not have an actual plan for the world. What he does have is hope for the world through his endowment of free will. God does not know the future, but he does know the infinite number of possibilities required for his gamble on ‘free will’ to succeed. Interfering with that would alter the delicate balance of the human condition equivalent of the ‘Goldilocks Effect’.
@johncollins7062 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Isaiah 46:10 Everything he says here is the complete opposite if everything you just said. Human will isn't that important in the grand scheme of things. Why would human will matter more than the will of devils or angels? Or beast? Just because human beings are made in his image? God shows no being favoritism. Neither does he have any particular bias towards any being. For his glory's sake, he exalts us as his children. And he does it for his by his own will.
@@xavierthomas5835- I never said anything of [ Human will ], whatever that is; and God never said any of your citations either. Free will is the most complicated proposal in he history of the universe. So difficult, in fact, it even took God four billion years to put it in place. I would vehemently disagree and reaffirm anything taking that long, to endow, would positively be [ that important in the grand scheme of things. ] Perhaps, if my name were Graham or Confucius, you might take my overture more seriously; regardless, that is something for you to reconcile within. Still, I hope you do something to help you have convivial conversations, instead of trying to win a non-existent argument.
As long as we are in this world we will suffer, it is a fact of life. Christ promises us hope, and salvation at the end of the road. While we are here, he bears our pain with us, so we don’t go through it alone.
@backwoodsonthabeat7783 Jesus took all suffering to the cross. When people believe this, their suffering will end. We serve a supernatural God. We must worship him in the spirit.
@@backwoodsonthabeat7783 This does not address the Problem of Evil. _Why_ is suffering a fact of life? This implies that suffering is an inherent aspect of reality, or necessary, which cannot be the case if God is omnipotent. God is capable of manipulating the properties of reality in any way he chooses, so if he is truly omnibenevolent, why does he allow suffering to exist?
@@TheOneAndOnly-t5hevil is not the presence of a bad force. Evil is an absence of good, and God is good. God has given us free will to accept him, he will not force you to believe in him and he will not force his presence on you.
I was literally in some of the darkest points of my life….thank you so much for your wonderful talent messages and presentations! These really are uplifting…God bless you man ❤🙌🏾🙏🏾

This one brought me to tears. Your depiction of the suffering Christ went through, and all for me...I don't often get this overwhelming feeling. Thank you. This video is impeccable.
@@jayfeather001theslav5- It is like the passive naval command, to the helmsman: "Maintain course and speed". When you are reading random articles and veering widely off course, how can you be certain you are not steering into rocky shoals?

@BradynLee “it’s all answered in the bible” isn’t very helpful to the debate, i get you don’t know where in the bible but why are you telling someone wrong but not helping them understand why?
The humility we need to comprehend all this is never enough. Thank you for this enlightening gem. God has spoken through you in this beautiful video and that is a wonderful feeling felt not just by you but by all who witness it.
You are an absolute blessing! May this channel speak to the souls of many troubled hearts. I'm truly speechless, this was AMAZING! God bless you brother!
When I finished watching this video, I broke down crying. I realized that my entire life desperately searching for an answer and a solution has not only left me with nothing but has made my life worse. I grew bitter, cold, and angry. Although I thought I had stayed true to my Faith, it was only used to fuel anger, rage, and violence. God does not want this for me, I realize this now. But He doesn't want me to give into temptations, ideologies, and sin either. No matter how hated, I shall stand and be one with Christ. For His love is more vital than any hatred mankind could ever conjure.
I heard Job's story since I was little, but only now I started reading it on my own. Your animation reminded and enlightened me just how terrible he was feeling. I'm going to continue reading and discover for myself who God is.
If anyone hasn't read "The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky I highly recommend it. There has not been a novel so rich and fearless in its philosophical discussions than in this novel. The ideas that are so difficult for us to confront are addressed and it truly changed my life and the lives of everyone I know who has read it. Irregardless of your ideological dispositions, there is something in it for you which will allow you to reflect on your existence and its meaning.
While I am someone who has made their own religion taking inspiration off of Buddhism, your video spoke to me in a very emotional way and I commend you for it... It hasn't changed my skepticism of the existence of God but it did help me see things from a different point of view.. I'm happy I came across your channel, keep up the great work man.
Thank you, I've been suffering from depression for so long. Everyone that tries to help me. I shove them away, i get irritated very easily. I'm a coward and i know it. I have psoriasis which devastated me for 7 years. I have no hope left in me. I doubted god. To which i will forever regret. I keep dreaming of a life without this burden. Its hard and painful but alot of people still supports me. Even if i shove them away. Thank you for this video. It really helped and hit my soul.
It's important to remember that God gave us free will to choose whatever we want and Satan is the one that brings on all this so it's important to remember that Jesus died for our sins so we can go to heaven and there is a promise of heaven and where there is no wars killings hatred so thank you to Jesus Christ for putting his life on the cross so we could have eternal life that is what it's all about we won't get a great life here but we will in heaven that's what it was promised to us by God himself he gave us the Free Will you can choose to be sad and suffer or you can choose Jesus Christ that is yourhimself 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤
The life of Job was such a blessing to me I always reminded myself that no matter what I've been struggling I know there still more people who suffered more than me and God just testing my Faith on him
What a great response! Your words will echo in my life as I deal with chronic pain. I trust in God and the process. I will now pay closer attention not to the struggle or pain itself, but how I and others REACT to it and LEARNED from it, and hopefully do better as I learn from them.. ALL bc of YOU! So…Thank YOU VERY VERY MUCH ! I found THIS to be EXTREMELY helpful! As they say, u may not be able to change the problem but YOU CAN change how YOU LOOK at the problem! I hope THIS continues to helps others as it did for me. God bless you ALL!
Please consider this scenario: A man is waiting at a crosswalk of a busy intersection. He hears the cries of a terrified mother behind him. Turning around, he sees a toddler running in his direction, giving every sign the child will run past him and bolt into traffic. Now the man realizes that he could effortlessly extend his hand and stop the toddler, saving the child's life. He also understands stopping the child will prevent the untold heartaches of a mom watching her child horribly die, the trauma of the striking motorist, and the grief of every witness, relative and friend. Instead the man freely chooses to do nothing. Brakes screech, vehicles collide, lives are ruined and one is lost. The crosswalk light changes, and the man simply walks around the carnage and continues on his way, thinking "I will do the same in the future." Do you think he acted reasonably? Did he show any empathy or compassion? And a simple yes/no moral question: _Is the man who let a child needlessly die evil?_
I rarely comment on videos, but your videos have changed my perspective a lot. I have always felt beat down after temptations and resort to resentment for not controlling my mind. I wanted to run away from my temptations instead of facing them directly with His help. And each time, I gave in to temptations, I felt remorseful than ever, but I know these are only temporary as God will help us battle our most evil thoughts. Jesus died for us, so we could live free from sins. Thank you Lord ❤
U MADE ME CRIED LIKE A BABY!!! AND I FELT A BREEZE AGAINST MY TEARS AS TO WIPE THEM AND TELLS ME THAT IM NOT ALONE!!!! GLORY TO GOD!!!! JESUS CHRIST IS KING!!!!!
Am ashamed to say I had a job moment lashing out because of the hardship that's built up over me to a breaking point, yet He always catches me right after and causes something to happen to comfort me afterwards ❤ more love and mercy than I deserve He is loving and watching over us always there even when we can't see it or feel it. For we walk by faith not by sight
I’ve been waiting for years for him to cut me some slack. Why ain’t he helping me out at all? Maybe because he hates me? Or maybe because he doesn’t exist? Tell us how he helped you. And I don’t mean like he eased your mind. Tell us how things were significantly changed for the better for you.
@@SauerkrautX I suffered from a curse I had a business and helped people out that practiced voodoo and decided to steal what I had and cursed me so I could die I had 10 near head on collisions in one week and from a person who hasn't had any tickets in the past ten years and who job is centered on safe driving I was clear what was happening, everything and anything that could go wrong went wrong I went from making 20k a week to unemployed for over a year I was tormented to the point of contemplating if it would be easier if I just ended it, I would have constant anxiety was woken up every night constantly at 3 am by a cold hand pulling my leg or pushing my shoulder it didn't matter if I had taken sleeping pills or not. I would take 20 mg of melatonin at 12am just to wake up again fully awake at 3am I would hear scratching on the walls foot steps on the roof and when I did sleep it was horrible nightmares of demons and me dying. I felt so hopeless I constantly felt like I was just waiting for some one to kick my door in and shoot me I was slowly starting to lose everyone around me because they all thought I was loosing my mind which was the hardest part because who really believes in demons and voodoo ? To everyone I was just a screw up and on drugs always being dismissed as crazy it was frustrating my marriage was falling apart and had no one to lean on I would cry myself to sleep because how do you fight what you can't see? It was like being on a conveyor belt slowly being dragged to the slaughter all while watching the people who did this steel my business and spread rumors to ensure I wouldn't be able to get back in and being mocked every time I saw them on the road while driving around ( also had a few attempts on my life that I survived by God's saving Mercy they cut my breaks and several other things ) . It wasn't till I cried out to God that I was provided a path out of it all it wasn't what I pictured, in my mind I thought He would swoop down and crush them and give me all my business back and be like it was before but it was slow yet through it I understand how to appreciate peace that still quiet peace is so precious that we don't understand that until it gone I had none but when He restored that one thing it was like a flood of water in a dry river bed I was so happy 😊 I was directed to a church that kept the Sabbath (was a thing for me to keep all His precepts by choice) from there the first day I went it was like the guest pastor was specifically speaking to me about turning away from the world and it's deceptive riches and the idolatry behind them I ran to the bathroom and cried my heart out 😭 came back everyone saw my tears though I tried to hide them , they hugged me and prayed for me and anointed my head with oil I went home did the same to the house and my sleep was restored I was no longer being awaken at 3 and we caught the spirit walking past the front of the house at 3 am on our front door camera it was so creepy and crazy to see that soon after I spoke to a brother in Christ that prayed for me and casted off of me demons of oppression it was like a light switch was flicked he prayed for me as He was praying I almost blacked out threw up 5 times and felt a rushing wind leave my body and with it all the fear all the anxiety and all the negativity along with it soon after I was led to a fellowship thats now my family in Christ and have found a job and realized all the material things dont matter and if we appreciate all the small victories and blessings we are so much happier like the fact that you woke up today is a miracle that some did get today so appreciate it 💕 Love God first and foremost and have a attitude of gratitude the enemy seek to kill steel and destroy don't let him steel your joy destroy your hope and kill your future because he is a liar, there are better days ahead in Jesus name .
@@SauerkrautX The problem is we live in a materialistic world where we value ourselves for what we have or how many people envy us , none of that matters at all we all go to the grace we will all stand before God and have to answer what we did with our lives and what we did to advance His kingdom. And id rather be the lowly man that told everyone about His saving grace than the millionaire stock broker who lived as his own god serving only his pleasures. Seek FIRST the kingdom of God and His righteousness and everything else will be added unto you. Wish I could give you my entire testimony because so many times I knew God was working through dreams visions and people He placed in my path.
@@EZ123EZ I never once mentioned about owning things or how much people like me, so I don’t even know why you brought that up. I want to know what your story is. If you don’t want to tell it, then that’s fine.
I always buried these questions deep inside. But you have shown me the way. "If one chooses to conquer, he shall. If one chooses to not love and conquer, they shall be conquered by evil"
The way that god makes people the way they are? God creates people. People are the way they were created as. People kill. God knew all of this, yet he did nothing. He watches, as humanity suffers on in its endless strive towards more suffering.
Trust in the Lord o my soul for my hope comes from him. I wrote a horrible exam yesterday and today I felt like I lost hope because I prayed and studied but disappointment is always at the door. Watching this video gave me encouragment for if God is for us who can be against us. Thank you brother🤍❤🤍
Thank you kind stranger for this wonderful video. I just don't really have words for how moving this is. Jesus loves you all, take care of yourself and those around you
One of the best videos I've ever seen. Answering every queries I had and perhaps the ones others did. Restoring the faith in God and his wisdom. Lots of love.
I prayed today, and I usually don't. I just slowly found back to faith and am desperate for God's love and answers. I have never seen your videos pop up in my feed until today. I asked God for guidance and there comes your video, that feels like a big brother lays his arm around me and shares his wisdom. Just like Hannah, I'm suffering from the unfulfilled desire of having children and my husband is dealing with male infertility due to Testosterone therapy for over 10 years. The constant waiting for improvements, for changes is ripping me apart and I constantly ask, WHY? It brings up all the shame, the lack of love for myself. Your video is the first thing that actually gives me some comfort today. It makes me feel like I'm not alone in this.
Why does God allow bad things to happen? Because it’s a perfect opportunity for God’s love to be demonstrated and proves that Him and His love will always be more powerful than any kind of evil.
@notatrueweeb9378 God lets bad things happen to test our faith. And God already knows how we'll respond. But God still lets it happen because he wants a genuine relationship with you.
@@notatrueweeb9378 God is real and loves you. He loves you so much that he died for you. If you ever get told that God isn't real, then don't ever get fooled by those lies.
@@notatrueweeb9378 You should always believe in God. He is real and loves you. The Big Bang was proven to be false. But the LORD'S word and himself is proven by many to be real. I pray these words touch you. God bless you brother in Christ. 🙏 ❤
As an atheists, I did find this comforting, it has given me a way to deal with aspects of my life in general, to go on with life despite of all it's cruelty. (read the all the replys for better context)
these videos always give me a better perspective in life, im trying to get closer to god and your videos always help me overcome the sadness i feel, i cant explain how much your videos impacted my life for the best
I believe God exists because we haven't destroyed ourselves yet. Somehow humanity keeps going with all the evil and cruel things we do to our fellow men and women. The reason bad things happen is they must in order for us to learn to true meaning of life and to choose to not do them and avoid what we can and to help others in ways we can.
Great perspective, I usually see it from the fact that once humans sinned God took a step back from the earth, and let us commit the evils in our hearts through our free will due to our willingness to sin, and that perversion entered God's world therefore. But to see it from this new perspective of it's not about evil things happening but our response to it through Jesus Christ is something really interesting and enlightening. I will be keeping both these perspectives in mind and reflecting on them whenever I am going through trouble, and I pray you all do to.
((Long Post)) This is my own explanation when someone asks me about why God allows Evil. We cannot comprehend what He thinks, and it’s foolish to try. We are not God, we cannot know why He does the things he does, nor why he allows what we perceive as Evil to occur. Let’s look at the Beggar living in the streets for a moment. He’s been homeless for 5 years now. During those first 2, times were desperate and horrifying, to say the least. But by year 3, he started to understand the ways of street life and by year 5 he had come to accept his Life. He no longer craved the instant pleasures of Society, he no longer cared to own a big house just to flash his junk at people and say “Look how much money I make?” All he wants is to just live and let live, and be happy with the life he now chooses. He doesn’t harm anyone, he doesn’t cause issues. He just doesn’t care for the fast-paced stress of the day-to-day societal pressures of working to buy a house and a car, to go out with friends and party, etc. On the streets. He is happy, Life moves a lot slower and he can truly appreciate the beauty in the smallest of things, like how devout an ant can be to building its colony and protecting its queen, or how wonderful the changing of the seasons are when you’re outside every single day with nothing but time to witness the world. And because of this, he has found the true meaning of Life itself. And Jesus said, “Blessed are the ones who have suffered, for they have find Life.” . Now let’s look at the man who was born into the highest possible class of his society one could hope to attain. From the moment he was born, he has been given absolutely everything; And until the day he dies, he will never have to work or worry about money because he has millions that were gifted to him by his family waiting for him on the day he turns 18. He spends his entire life getting every single possible item he could want, he never has to choose because why choose when money solves everything? He travels the entire world hundreds of times before he’s even in high school because he was home schooled by the best private Teachers money can buy. When he turns 18, he is no longer shielded by his parents and has to make all of his financial decisions on his own. Not wanting to give up the lifestyle he knows, he blows through $15 Million USD by the time he turns 25, and then begs his family to give him more. They say, “How could you possibly have blown through all of that money? Why didn’t you invest? Why didn’t you start a business or something? Why didn’t you grow your portfolio?” But that’s because he never took business classes, he never took financial courses, he never had a need to do such a thing. His family assumed he’d watch their success as he grew up and just magically become successful on his own. Now he’s broke and he’s desperate to continue the only life he’s ever known, but he has no money and his family refuses to give him any more aid as an adult; But yet, he’s never worked a single day in his life at anything even remotely considered a Job. Because of this, he knows nothing but suffering. He becomes depressed, he turns to drug use to numb the pain, he refuses to get a job and actually work toward attaining the social status he once had by his own volition and hard work. . Unfortunately, we have to understand what evil and suffering is in some capacity if we wish to know what true Good and Peace are. Many would kill to have what the second man in this Hypothetical scenario had, but being the person born into that situation; He has no understanding of true suffering. He never knew what it was like to be denied a $1 million dollar car for his 15th birthday, much less what it’s like to have 3 children with a partner who abandoned you, and now you have to work 2 jobs during the week and a 3rd job on the weekend just to keep your children alive. Yet, because you are trying so hard to put food on the table, you never have a chance to actually spend time with your kids when they’re kids and suddenly they’re adults who hate you because they think you were cold and distant in their childhood. They don’t know what it’s like to have to wonder if you’re going to lose power to your entire neighborhood for an unknown period of time because some drunk idiot smashed into a light pole, but because you live in such an impoverished area, it takes over a week for them to actually come and fix it. They don’t know what it’s like to grow up in an Orphanage wondering if you’ll die from the cold, or from starvation, or from sheer neglect at any moment because there are only 2 adults looking after a group of 100 children stuffed into a small building.
@@johnnyrocket1685Okay, but saying we don't know still leaves a gap in the understanding. I get your scenarios, but they're cherry-picked. What about the child in Africa who starved at the age of 2? What about the thousands killed by the atomic bomb? What about the dead from cancer? They didn't do anything wrong, there is no lesson to be taught.
It's just it, they die, it goes black, forever, there's no hell nor heaven for you to stay, there's no such friction thing that prevent you form the worst death, the true emptiness, there's no actually good ending for one, it's only the worst of worst, don't be frustrated if your life doesn't last long because at the end the death will overwhelm the happiness you got form staying here

This video just rocked my world in the BEST way! I have needed this since 2015. Somebody to just … lay it out like that! You have been given a precious GIFT. Thank you 🙏🏻 From the bottom of my heart and for the rest of my life 🥲
This was perfectly explained and so understandable. You’re not trying to make it complicated & have us keep asking “button why?”…just straight to the point & real with your answer/response. Only thing that matters is we walk by faith & have to trust him, remain loyal to him No matter what. Sometimes we focus too much on all the bad things and forget about all the great amazing things he’s done and our life. God is good and you my friend are amazing! Love this ❣️🙏🏼😇🙏🏼
Please consider this scenario: A man is waiting at a crosswalk of a busy intersection. He hears the cries of a terrified mother behind him. Turning around, he sees a toddler running in his direction, giving every sign the child will run past him and bolt into traffic. Now the man realizes that he could effortlessly extend his hand and stop the toddler, saving the child's life. He also understands stopping the child will prevent the untold heartaches of a mom watching her child horribly die, the trauma of the striking motorist, and the grief of every witness, relative and friend. Instead the man freely chooses to do nothing. Brakes screech, vehicles collide, lives are ruined and one is lost. The crosswalk light changes, and the man simply walks around the carnage and continues on his way, thinking "I will do the same in the future." Do you think he acted reasonably? Did he show any empathy or compassion? And a simple yes/no moral question: _Is the man who let a child needlessly die evil?_
@@Darth_Vader258 Thanks for the honest answer. Now please consider a follow up question: You rightfully called the man evil because he knowingly let one child needlessly and horribly die. _Wouldn't a god who knowing lets thousands needlessly and horribly die in earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, famines, etc. every single day be even more evil?_ (If you answer anything other than 'yes,' please explain why you hold that omnipotent god to lower conduct standards of reason, empathy, and morality than that one imperfect lowly mammal. Expecting a mortal man to act BETTER than a god makes as much sense as expecting an unruly un-housebroken dog to act better than its well-mannered trainer)
My friend died few weeks ago but what helped me cope was knowing that soul is immortal and untainted and I hope he mustve reincarnated somewhere good place.
My friend shot herself a few months ago. I got to hear the news a month after her passing through an obituary sent to me by another friend. I was devastared. I couldn't do anything but cry and cry and cry. I began to hurt myself, again. I began to avoid going outside or to do anything. One day my dad forced me to go to a church event in Haaga. He didn't know, and he still doesn't know of my friend's passing. I was struggling to do anything there. I was glued to my phone until I eventually ran out of battery. I was alone. We were about to eat, and I prayed. The pain went away. All of it. For the first time in weeks I didn't feel like crying. I missed her, I still do, but the sorrow was overcome. Like the fog had lifted. The burden had been lifted off of me. I don't have words for how thankful I am
All glory to God for this man's talents and content. All glory to God for his platform to spread his Word. Lot of understanding and wisdom in this content. Please keep publishing and giving all glory to the LORD!
As a Christian myself with struggling faith, it is not about the fact that evil happens, it's rather that he is seemingly nowhere in our struggles and suffering. Love requires action. Where is his helping hand? While I will never be able to prove his involvement anywhere, I do believe that "Serendipity" is usually indicator of his involvement. For example, miracles check for a single mother's when she needs it the most, maybe beating cancer, etc. My doubt rather comes at the perceived lack of his involvement, because I can never know the full story of who he helps and how, however I ask myself what distinguishes me from other's tragedies happening to me? Am I special? I don't believe so. I believe he values us equally. However, I am a sinner just like those that experience tragedy, likely worse, however I haven't experienced their tragedy. Before I used to be a devout Christian, but after an incident with suffering I believe he could've helped me in, it truly rocked my faith as a man in his 20s, because I was devout to him even in pain, hoping I'd be able to see his help. I don't know how my story might play out, but i don't plan to respond with more sinful attitude. However, that doesn't mean that I don't consider him like a missing father. Something the author of this video has likely not experienced, and therefore can not holistically understand this kind of pain and therefore crevice in any relationship with God (even though the author concludes implying he truly understands)
If God exists, I see god as an absent, manipulative and abusive parent and totally unworthy of anyone's love. As a father if I were to give god a grade I would not only give him an F minus, I would multiply that failing grade to infinity. No matter what my children did or ever may do will I EVER want to see them suffer in eternal loneliness and misery. They know because I have proven multiple times that I love them, will go to ultimate extremes to protect and defend them, and would NEVER turn my back on them.
1 second ago The OP half assed mentioned Job, and chose not to mention the fact GOD MADE A DEAL WITH SATAN!! GOD GAVE SATAN PERMISSION TO INFLICT THESE TORTURES. GOD FORBID SATAN TO KILL JOB. Death would have been much more merciful than the torture GOD ALLOWED SATAN TO INFLICT these horrific events on an elderly human being AND DID NOTHING TO STOP SATAN, he supposedly just stood by and watched. When Job questioned god why; God egotistically responded with a shaming lecture.
@@juans9515there's no rhyme or reason for any of this. If there is a God, he is truly one of the most evil and cruel entities to ever grace this universe. The curse of evil only gets deeper. Poverty, twisted governments, secret societies, nuclear bombs, dead children, cancer, greed, misinformation, ignorance. And what good is there to offset the deep rooted evil that runs this planet? A loving father would never let his child set foot on this shithole of a planet. He either doesn't exist or he is all for the evil that makes us suffer.
When dear folk are in pain or grief it's not always easy to discuss deep ideas. We either run to God or away from Him, either Trust Him no matter what or blame Him. The only person that knows all and can help is God but often our definitions of God are based on our own ideas ,so we think He is just a best version of ourselves. In my grieving experience the only place to start after one stops yelling at or accusing God ( if that's what you do)is getting to know His character through the entire Bible and coming with a truth seeking heart looking for God's answers not ours. This is my experience and that of many others. I sadly meet many folk. Who after suffering grief or hurt of any kind have lived in a state of emotional paralysis fir 50-50+ years . Still Angry and blaming God. This self destruct seems to ease their pain.
I gotta say... From all the christian content out there, this is the best one I found. I understand that everyone has their preference on listening to God's word and all, but you have an approach that is certainly the best in my opinion. Thank you... I consider myself strong and always try to take care of my faith, but seeing your content makes it even better, so again, thank you. I'm really going to be watching your content even more. You got yourself a sub, buddy.
I remember seeing this video once before but I thought nothing of it, however months after I found myself asking that question and found this video once more. The video is well done, the audio, the animation, typography, your southing voice, and inspiring message it brings. Honestly the few of the last lines of the video almost brought me to tears 'Come on now let's do this together'. As the simple illustration of Jesus helped the other illustration to which I interpret as a person in need or yourself who's someone in need, helps lift the cross, it just struck a cord with me. Again well done, and make sure to make more videos!
I'm very grateful to find your videos and it has helped me to answer a lot of questions I may have asked myself. So I thank you brother and may yahweh bless you. You've helped me and I don't know why your channel isn't bigger
Hello there! I'm an Atheist but I still come back to your videos time to time because I've always question my belief in being a good person, being selfless and all the virtues that I've believed in ever since I was a child. This video of yours certainly solidified my faith in being good (not in a sense where I believe in God like Christians do). Thank you so much pal!
Hi I was just going to ask why you believe in doing the right thing if its not for God. Because if you don't believe in God... why does doing the right thing and trying not to sin even matter to you
@@andrewski8189 I wasn't replying to you but I will say this anyway. From my perspective all sin is equal (so swearing is the same as murder ) but as the world gets worse, more and more sin gets "bumped down the ladder" so to speak, of how bad it really is, (just 24 years ago same-sex mirage was not legal in the US) ( s*x before mirage is more common than ever ) (no one cares about saying f bombs or any other swear word ) ( crimes are more widely excepted in country's that are supposed to be more developed ) what I mean by all of this is that your "morals" are far different now than what they would have been 50 years ago and they will continue to change as long as they are connected to the world and not to God. I hope I don't come across as rude by saying this, all I am trying to do is inform you.
@@Maul222 I completely get what you mean, however there's really nothing I can say to counter this as it's just facts, although to say every sin is the same is such a flawed opinion
@@andrewski8189 The reason we say "all sin is the same" is because God has told us not to break any of his rules and if we break one we break them all (but we can never be perfect so that is why we need Jesus who died on the cross and payed for all our sins, so now that they have been payed we will go to haven nonmatter what [but we will still try to obey him to the best of our abilities]) (when it comes to applying all this in everyday life [yes] we do treat all sin differently, like if my friend lies I won't treat them like a murder, BUT in the grand scheme of things all sin is the same to God. Besides that I think you are a pretty reasonable person to have a good conversation with I will continue to pray for you and I wish you a great day.
I guess it’s like In a world where the darkness of evil is so prevalent, only those who believe and are close to the Lord will receive his light and with this gift of light they will become beacons in the darkness for the lost to follow, I guess that’s why the it is written in scripture to help spread the word so that others may light their way and never stumble in the darkness again. Great video amen brother
I lost my wife after last week, we just got married in December 2022, she had high blood pressure and had complications when giving birth, leaving me with our first son, I want to keep fighting for him but I am feeling so defeated, we prayed and prayed for God to save her but she still passed, keep us in your prayers 🙏

Actually, it is more of what God can’t allow himself to do and it is also the answer for the question of why does God let bad things happen. Many would readily and vehemently disagree, but God does not have an actual plan for the world. What he does have is hope for the world through his endowment of free will. God does not know the future, but he does know the infinite number of possibilities required for his gamble on ‘free will’ to succeed. Interfering with that would alter the delicate balance of the human condition equivalent of the ‘Goldilocks Effect’.

This helped. I lost my wife to cancer two weeks ago from this past Tuesday. I'm going through all of those emotions, asking why, getting angry, being loaded with grief, getting distant, coming back again, all in a jumbled cycle. I have to keep reminding myself that Jesus came not to fix this world, but to allow us into enter a totally new existence where pain, suffering, sorry, all the evil is no more, for eternity, from this very short, temporary vapor of a life. I have to keep reminding myself that my wife is experiencing the glory and it's just a matter of a short time before I am with her in glory.

welll "if life were predictable it would erase to be life, and be without flavor" -Elarnor Roosevelt and All human are do Bad/Horrible thing bcuz they choice to even a Good person, well sometime you need to do thing that can break the ego/comfort to be realistic and open your eyes, God doesn't first people live a happily even they like it or not, God want us resilience, power(in to overcome the evil), courage and Strength and sometime God is to do opposite of thing that you like and outside control bcuz if you are wotrhy to Live that you want and thing Than God why the evil is exist and Human also are the evils one too
there are 2 types of terrible things, one that comes from natural soruce or cause, another that comes from people,objects controlled by people.

Hey dude. I've been struggling with my faith. Family is extremely Catholic, with no argument allowed whatsoever, and obviously the society we surround ourselves with today is mostly Atheist, with facts and logic backing up their beleifs, while I was taught, "Its just God, can't question it."

Highly recommend continuing to research the answers to your questions man, using Catholic sources in your searches. Never stop searching--Ask God for guidance with humility, a softened heart, and childlike trust. Also, I recommend praying 3 Hail Mary's every single day asking Mother Mary for Her intercession, as well praying to St. Joseph for his help too! God bless you.
Thank God every day that you are Catholic! read a chapter of the OT and NT daily, pray, meditate, pray the Rosary which is a meditation on Christ's life, read the early church fathers. fast, give alms...these actions will take you directly to God.

The idea that Christ suffers with us, mourns for us, is brokenhearted when we are broken hearted. That has helped me through very hard times. It doesn't make the sadness go away, but it does remind us of our importance to God. That he cares. And even more than just caring, he feels what we feel. He stops to our level to weep alongside us. And he reassures us that in the end he will be victorious, and none of this suffering will be for naught.
Our minds are truly a puzzle. We can be creative in our own ways. We see people around the world starving but we don’t do anything for them. They cant do anything for themselves which is truly pitiful. But we don’t have to though. Suffering is a real thing which can only come victorious until the end of time.
How do you this.
Simply trust....trust Jesus came down and suffered with us. We live in a fallen world thats progressively getting darker...@@Eric-ej3oy
@@Eric-ej3oyContinue to read the word of God, and talk with him, communicate with him, and share your feelings and thoughts with him. One thing i have definitely learned, and that is super helpful, is not to worry about ‘not’ sinning, instead, focus on Jesus and his word. You cannot get rid of darkness by focusing on darkness, you can only get rid of darkness by focusing on the light, get it? You will only grow by reading, obeying, repenting, and communicating with God. Don’t worry about all the wrong you’re doing, bc it is not your works that matter, instead, it is your relationship with God that matters. Ill tell you right now, you will naturally start to change when you do these things, you cannot change on your own and gain peace on your own, you will only start to get these things when you apply Gods word in your life. Having this connection with God will cause you to naturally gain the fruits of the spirit which is: Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. Because God will bless you with his Holy Spirit ✝️💝💝💝✝️. I hope and pray this helped you! God bless you!
This argument is null and void for me, because God never became a human. Jesus looked like a human, but he never had to wrestle with the question of if God is real or not. He never had to wonder if God hated Him and was actually using Him as a plaything, to torture and laugh at and keep stretching to see how long it takes to break Him. That’s what I have to wonder everyday. God never struggled like me. Jesus never knew the true loneliness and despair and emptiness that I feel everyday. Jesus KNEW his entire life that He was God, and nothing that happened mattered because He’s God and He’s just gonna be God again when the little people “kill” Him. If Jesus was actually just a “normal” human, who was God but didn’t know it, and still remained innocent and sinless and performed miracles and took on the sin of the world anyway, THEN God could say that He knows what it’s like to be human from experience. But that’s NOT the case. God essentially cheated. He never fully became human, He never truly had to deal with our hardest struggles. The “hardest” thing He dealt with was dying, but even while He was dying He knew for a fact beyond any shadow of a doubt that He was going to Heaven and regaining His “God-ness”. Does any Christian truly know they’re going to Heaven in such a way? No. And they couldn’t possibly. Some may have successfully deluded themselves into the belief, but ironically all of them have different ideas of what Heaven actually is, so you can’t really say this belief was revealed to them by God, otherwise the picture of Heaven would be the same. But I digress; the main point of this comment is, God does not understand my pain, He does not weep with me because He cannot understand it, and the reason He cannot understand it is not because He’s incapable as an all-powerful being, obviously. The reason is that He is God, and not a human, and He knows of His own existence, He doesn’t have to wish and hope and gaslight himself into belief in the face of overwhelming evidence pointing to his non-existence. He simply does not know what it’s like to be a human, and nothing Jesus went through on Earth changes that fact. The most I’ll admit to is that God did a good acting job.
My mother was complaining about headaches on Saturday and we took her to the Hospital immediately, fast forward to Monday she cant remember stuff and finds it hard to speak, i wept , as tough as i thought i was i couldnt stop myself from weeping, funny enough i found your video on "Talkin with God and not to Him" i think , on sunday and addded it to my watch later and watched it on monday at night while bawling my eyes out, i tried praying for the first time in a while and ive been praying ever since, watching this current video peace just flowed into my heart, shes getting better now , may God bless you sir

Why does God allow?
Answer = God has given mankind 6,000 years to Self-Govern from Adam's choice.
Mankind was given the Bible on how to stop Self-Governing choice of mankind and follow God instead but, mankind never has and thus, learning the hard way, is mankind's agenda then, stopping and listening and following God.
Once the 6,000 years is over, mankind's allowed freewill, will be removed by Jesus when he returns and Gods way will be forced upon all on the Earth for, 1k years = Mankinds Sabbath = Rest Period from mankind's childish ways.

*3. "God" family name stands for "Authority". When God told us, Satan the Devil is the God of this world, that did not mean he is in the God family name, he is what God stands for and that is Authority.
4. By Adam's choice between the 2 teachers of Jesus and Satan (Satan is not a name, but a title which means enemy) in the Garden of Eden, freewill aka to self-Govern = Adam picked that over following God for Satan conned him into the means to create ruin upon himself and all others after him = A domino effect.
5. Outside mankind's doors now, is the result of mankind allowed to self-Govern than to follow The God Family.
6. Satan is teacher for 6,000 years (time limit God placed. Which, is almost up) and created inventions into mankind's minds to create a sinful existence for all that will lead mankind to suffer/die in.

That is NOT self governing. Nor were we united.
Not since Babel (if it happened) and you have no, evidence, of that, so far.
Nor of the Exodus either, at present.
And TWO PEOPLE who did NOT KNOW good from evil, or bad - is not 'mankind'.
Nor are they 'governing'. Or if they are, they are 'governing us' by one impulsive choice, unaware of stakes to others? Or that even heaven... had proven, to be less than harmonious, perfect, or fully stable? (or at least, the angelic realm)
The one place sin, and desire to sin, and confusion, and unhappiness, or suicidal, pride - was surely, LEAST likely, to debut, or arise.

We can’t control the terrible things that happen in this world but we can chose how to respond to it
Please consider this scenario:
A man is waiting at a crosswalk of a busy intersection. He hears the cries of a terrified mother behind him. Turning around, he sees a toddler running in his direction, giving every sign the child will run past him and bolt into traffic.
Now the man realizes that he could effortlessly extend his hand and stop the toddler, saving the child's life. He also understands stopping the child will prevent the untold heartaches of a mom watching her child horribly die, the trauma of the striking motorist, and the grief of every witness, relative and friend.
Instead the man freely chooses to do nothing. Brakes screech, vehicles collide, lives are ruined and one is lost. The crosswalk light changes, and the man simply walks around the carnage and continues on his way, thinking "I will do the same in the future."
Do you think he acted reasonably?
Did he show any empathy or compassion?
And a simple yes/no moral question: _Is the man who let a child horribly die evil?_
if i were to set my wife (who i love very very much) on fire, do i love her? most theists answers are “well u never loved her in the first place if u did that.” so that means god never loved us if he’s willing to send us to burn and be tortured eternally hell. god is evil
@@humbleevidenceaccepter7712 Well in human eyes he could have done something and is some form of evil/cowardly. But thats was his free will to make in the Bible talks about sacrificial love. And that we are not saved by works alone so even if he choose to save the child’s life or not we are all evil in some form of way so in humans eyes even if he did save the child he’s a hero. But I’m Gods eyes we’ve all feel short of the glory of good and have to repent of are sins. And if that man in your scenario was truly good he would have read the Bible about sacrifice and saved that child. Just like how Jesus died on the cross for us It was SACRIFICIAL LOVE.
@@hakeemmickoy4417 Thanks for the reply.
Your answer is that the man is "evil" because he needlessly allowed a child to die a horrible death and caused untold suffering among many other people. He had the power to effortlessly prevent all that trauma and heartache but capriciously chose not to. All moral people agree he is a monster.
A follow up question: _Why would you worship a god who also could prevent needless accidents, catastrophes, earthquakes, hurricanes, famines, etc., but capriciously chooses not to?_ Why worship such a monster?
Wow its like other secular schools of thought figured this out without the controversial flaws of a religious text.
I’m an orthodox Christian but this helped me a lot, this message was very powerful and I can really understand now, I can feel like I’m getting closer to God

@@a.39886 God did not create sin. Man entered it into the world when they first chose to disobey God’s command. The consequences are God being a just God and not allowing wrongdoing to go unpunished. The video tried to get that across in the question of “How do you respond to sin and evil?” Are you going to do nothing or even complain about it? Or are you going to fight it with love and charity? Just because we don’t believe in God’s existence doesn’t change the fact that he is there.

@@RandNawzad-x2r All religions give peace but salvation is from Christ alone through faith in him that he is a God and rewards to them who seek him.
The Quran is deceiving. It talks about God (but in their sense of how they view God not the true God) but doesn’t talk about Jesus being the only begotten son of God, Our messiah and savior. And thats dangerous cuz people don’t believe in Jesus when he is the only way to eternal life.

I love how God talks to job and shows him that he's there but he leaves me alone with my dark thoughts
You might not think he’s listening. God does not come with the roar of a lion. He comes with the soft steps of a lamb. You might not hear him now, but listen closely. Look at the doors he opens. I promise you he’s listening and when times are hard look around you. He is everywhere. One night I really thought I might kill myself. I walk to the gas station to pick up an Arizona ice tea and probably make a decision on if I was going to hurt myself when I got back home. But I never got home. The gas station attendant asked me not to leave. She told me I looked sad and asked me to sit with her and talk. So I did, all night. God answered my prayers. He found someone to pull me out of a depressive episode, and he didn’t need to speak to me once. He let his creations sort it out.
@@goastlyarrowplays i screen shotted this for later I’ll try to keep this in mind
I have to say I find myself coming back to this video from time to time. This topic was the reason that despite growing up in a Catholic family, I never had faith myself.
I always wondered why some people, despite disaster and suffering, had a strength and light inside them that was unwavering. I wished I could be someone like this. Seeing God working through people moved me in such a way that I am now Christian. I am thankful for my beginnings because I needed to find the faith myself, on my own.
Today I come back to this video after everything going on in this world. I see the suffering and pain of innocent people and I know God is keeping them close. We do not understand evil and cannot but we can understand mercy, compassion and love for your neighbor.
II Timothy 1:7
The Bible does provide an answer to this question. It is the failure of the churches that people don't understand why there is suffering. Would you like to know? I can show you from the Bible.
@Pj-fm7oe comment it?
@@Pj-fm7oe agreed. I believe it is simple. He never told us to be evil. He never told us to do things to innocent people. He created us to give us the choice, and gave us advice. He still constantly gives us the platform, guidance and the ability to do better, so how is this His fault?He created the world TO be perfect, but the only ones who destroyed it was us. people mistaken God for- " if I believe in Him, everything in my life will be perfect and I'll never be sad." but that isn't the point. we'll never know perfection as long as we're on this earth. I know it's hard, and I've lost many people myself but in the end we can't escape the reality of the world. nothing is ever perfect here and we have to accept it. He warned us about it for a reason.
@@Pj-fm7oe may I know the answer?
@@spencer0417
Absolutely you may, let me know if you still have questions.
The simple answer is rebellion, Adam and Eve followed Satan into rebelling against God. They Had everything they needed, perfect bodies, ready food supply, easy enjoyable work (fill the earth, name the animals) and would live forever in the paradise they were given. God only had a single rule, being God and the creator he certainly has the right to make rules, He told them not to eat from his tree.
“From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.” Genesis 2:16,17
They had no need for food, no want of any kind, God was not denying them in some way. So simple was his rule that it was more a show of loyalty, a simple act of obedience to show recognition of God's authority. The sovereign of the universe could if he wanted demand anything of his own creation and they would owe him obedience, but he didn't make any such burdensome demands.
Satan saw the situation with the first human pair as an opportunity, he fooled Eve and Adam joined her willingly. They ate the fruit and became sinners and rebels. That original sin corrupted humans, imperfection cannot pass on perfection.
"That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned" Romans 5:12
Sin causes death and sin is passed on through the man (that is why Jesus could be born of a imperfect human mother and still be perfect, he did not have a human father, so no sin was passed to him).
The sin was the cause, however the reason is equally important.
"At this the serpent said to the woman: “You certainly will not die. For God knows that in the very day you eat from it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and bad." Genesis 3:4,5
Satan (the serpent is Satan talking see Rev 12:9) claimed that God was withholding good from them, then he claimed that they would "know good and bad" like God. So part of his lie is that people can decide good and bad, not follow God's rules but make their own. So he slandered God's motives, and implied that they would be better off on their own. That is the origin of the rebellion. It is the universal issue that all that all of this is actually about, sovereignty, the right to rule, who makes the rules or decides good and bad. It is a universal issue because the angels are also involved, up until the flood Satan tempted the angels to join him and some did. The flood was to put an end to them taking physical bodies and reproducing with the daughters of men (Gen 6:2). Those rebellious angels are called demons.
Like a court case the issue of sovereignty takes time to settle. God gave the angels time to show loyalty or rebel before the flood. Then he gave us his son and the Bible so we can understand what is going on. Then time was allowed for the nations of man to rule without interference, where every conceivable type of government has been attempted. The results of man's rulership are what you see around you, it has been an utter failure. All the suffering you see is an attempt to prove that man can figure it out without God. But it is not possible for man to rule himself successfully.
"I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step." Jerimiah 10:23
We are now waiting for the fulfillment of the promises. The time to prove has passed, the issue is settled and very soon God will execute justice just as he did in Noah's day. Never again will people suffer, conditions will return to what God intended from the beginning. A paradise earth forever filled with obedient happy people. No one can alter God's purpose, it was merely delayed to answer the issue, it will happen.
"Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, And they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." Psalms 37:10,11
"And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:3,4

This is me. I've been consistently sick for 3years with the worst pain and suffering known to man.. I've been keeping faith and trusting God for healing till recently.. just like job in the bible I lost so much and my body can't endure any longer.. I'm now asking God the same things as I've been trying my best to please him and even in paralytic conditions try my best to attend church or listen to preachings and do his word because realistically he's my only hope . I have lost faith completely and my prayer life is all bad now and when I try to even pray I go down to serious tears and doubt because of the Terrible experiences I've had these past 3years with fake prophets and pastors.. anyway I needed this because in my heart I still do believe.. and I think he answered me through your content..

That we Cannot, when we let Hate OR bitterness take over our heart... And that YOU, my brother, have so much Love inside yourself, Still.. that it remains. Your faith remains! May GOD Bless you for not giving in to any bitterness!.. Even when we Feel lost.. and have NO words but only tears.. Only silence.. Like this video is saying, OUR Tears, Our Silent Brokenness is as a Prayer to HIM Who hears us from within our hearts....

That Love IS very God Within us. That it's Love. That is what sees us through! God's Word tells us that HE Sticks Closer than a brother... You are Proof of that with your own words.

I have to give a sincere thank you. I’ve believed in God my entire life. But this reminded me of what it means to follow his word. I’m not Christian, I am a Sikh. In Sikh temples we serve anyone for free, spreading love to our community. It is a collaboration between to uphold love. I’ve been going less than I should. This made me remember why I needed to. The love I felt not only in helping others, but in the solidarity and love directed towards myself. That no matter how hard life seems, as long as I can find the strength to love, I can overcome any struggle. This serves as a inspiration to deepen my connection with God. For that, you have my sincerest gratitude.
Yes, In my life of 74yrs. I have been like Job though never rich in God’s Creation. I have been in that deep hole that everything begins to lookup. A look up that I look up with a grief/confusion I cannot conceive where to begin. I have looked everywhere in my hole to find compassion, the compassion Job found in Our GOD. I have been in and out(?) so often that my answer will come at my judgement, if the Judge knowing my “why” will answer me. Patience is a trying grace, one I ask for too often, if that is conceivable, yet I must ask. Thank you for reminding me of my brother Job. Someday… perhaps the days of eternity I will taste and see the Goodness of the LORD. O, Amazing Grace!!!🙏❤️🙏

But the question wasn't answered. It just boils down too "because you don't know as much as me, you don't deserve an answer." We are expected trust unconditionally because it's all we really can do not because it makes any kind of sense. It's the epitome of "because I said so"
Instead of saying I dont know , People want to believe in something. It gives them a purpose for their lives
Ok, this is literally the best channel ever. If theres any video that can help people experience Gods care in a beautifully crafted way, its this one
The message I got from this is we as Christian’s are the answer, to live like Christ and follow his teachings we can share the spirit we are gifted to share with others. The answer is also the solution, for us to bare the evil with our neighbors and to inspire them through our works. As long as all glory goes to Jesus

I love that you started off with the example of Job and his life. But what amazes me is that as much as his story is brought up, most people seem to ignore the biggest parts of Job’s story. When reading this it not only gives us the answer to the question posed in the title of this video but, when you began to conclude by saying you don’t know the answer, nor do you think anyone else does it somewhat baffled me. Why?
To start let’s ask another question, why did Job have such things happen to him?
As you stated at the open correctly, he was a prosperous and respected man, loved and known as a faithful man of integrity. God took note of that, but so did Satan. Satan accused that the only reason that Job was so faithful was because he had been blessed and protected by God. (Job 1:9-11)
He then raised a challenge by asking the question -- would he still remain faithful if he no longer experienced all the blessings he had received. God then ALLOWED Satan to take away the blessings he had enjoyed (Job 1:12-19) But this did not result in Satan winning his challenge, and at (Job 1:22) we see that Job remained faithful despite suffering this evil that had come upon him by Satan.
At (Job 2:3-5) we see he was still faithful to God and so Satan once again raised a challenge, that Job was only faithful because of Gods protection of him.
Notably God did not cause the suffering himself*** but he allowed Satan to afflict him, and the limit he gave was that he was not to take his life. (Job 2:6)
At (Job 2:10) we see that again despite this new horrible affliction and even his wife telling him to “Curse God and die”, he remained faithful.
Many chapters later after his exchanges with those who came to see him at (Job 27:3-6) we see Jobs determination to once again, REMAIN FAITHFUL or to “keep his integrity”. Although he still needed some learning and readjustment to his thinking, which Elihu helped provide before God also spoke to him, he remained faithful and righteous. At (Job 42:12-17) we see that when God stepped in, he removed and undid the suffering Job had experienced, and even doubled all that he had had before.
Jobs example ties in with other things including Jesus life. Jesus did not only die as a ransom to save us, but the way he LIVED his life while he was here on earth proved something else. That someone who was perfect could use their free will to serve god and live their life until they die, faithfully. Jesus was also tested by Satan while on earth. (Matt. 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13)
Through each of those challenges or tests/ temptations he quoted scripture and showed his faith in his father and God. Job was an imperfect man who was tested and challenged to remain faithful. Jesus was a perfect man who was challenged and remained faithful.
The importance of Jesus being perfect and remaining faithful is because Adam was perfect and yet when his obedience and faith were challenged, he chose to go against God. True to later form, Satan raised a similar challenge with Eve and Adam as later with Job and Jesus. Eve was told she could decide and know for herself what right and wrong was, and that god was holding something back and these challenges to give up our obedience and faith, and try to do things our way or depend on ourself instead of God is Satans whole motive to separate us. Adam messed up and Jesus had to correct that and answer Satans challenge against our faith to God, but ultimately Gods right as sovereign over all. (Romans 5:12,15,18,19) Jesus example proved that someone perfect could also make the choice to serve God and be obedient and faithful.
When he died and cried out (Matt. 27:50; Mark 15:37; Luke 23:46; John 19:30) he had accomplished what he came to do.
How does all of this answer the question of why does God allow suffering / evil/ wickedness?
Since the beginning of human history with Adam and Eve who chose not to remain obedient and faithful, Satan saw that he could drive a wedge between us and our Heavenly Father.
He accused shod of withholding something from them and also said that god was a liar. When Eve took the fruit and disobeyed God, and then Adam shared with her in this, they used their free will to decide for themselves what to do and not listen to god, therefore sin and death entered the world.
Job had his very wife and friends who should have supported him, tell him that he was to blame for his suffering and to just “curse god and die”. He chose to be faithful.
Jesus even though perfect was still human. He used his free will properly. He was tempted to satisfy himself and do what he wanted and to abuse his powers as gods son, and even to take the Kingdoms of the world and be their ruler. He even rejected it when the Jews tried to make him king and said that his “kingdom was no part of the world”. He remained obedient and faithful, taught others to look to god, teach others about him, pray for gods will to be done, and gave his life to accomplish his role in gods purpose, despite being accused of horrible things like blasphemy, and enduring being beaten and tortured, even saying “it is accomplished” when he died.
We too have free will. And just like Adam and Eve, just like Job and just like Jesus, we have choices to make.
Even those who don’t know it, if they aren’t following God then they are following Satan. But he’s not concerned with those already following him, he wants no one to serve God, he wants that worship and power for himself. So all this time where suffering has been around in the world it is ultimately a test of us as humans. God is allowing us, although imperfect to choose to follow and worship him. But being the God of love that he is just like the end of Jobs story, he promises to undo everything bad in the future. All of this answers clearly where our evil and suffering comes from, who is causing it (1 John 5:19), why it’s been allowed and what we can do about it. What a privilege we have as faithful humans to give the glory and honor and praise to God. And every time we do it’s a slap in Satans face. (Prov. 27:11) we can be an example that God uses to shut Satan up. Suffering and evil are temporary, but we can prove ourselves faithful and answer Satans challenge. We can endure and overcome the suffering by relying on god for endurance and help and working on ourselves to cultivate the fruitage of the spirit and more. And for us who are faithful and obedient we have a grand future to look forward to, promised by god and will see the fulfillment of his original purpose for humans.
Hey Spencer,
I just wanna formerly thank you, so much for taking the time to write this comment. I’m a 17 y/o that struggles with depression that comes and goes, and as I’m writing this, I’m in one of the deepest valleys that I’ve ever been in. My faith in God is so incredibly small, because of so many unanswered questions about Christianity and its origins. These terrible, paralyzing doubts then kinda sneak their way in, doubts like, “What if Christianity was simply made up as a coping mechanism for the hopelessness that is life?” Toppled with the growing number of atheists in the U.S. where I live, who seemingly have plausible reasons for their unbelief. Then if I were to blame said doubts on the enemy, they’re immediately countered with, “well what if that’s just a lie to get you to stay a delusional Christian that only gives money to the church …” and so many other ideas to fill in that blank. It’s like every time I really try to counter these “what-ifs”, there’s no possible thing that I could remind myself of that puts these doubts to silence. It ends up being a huge circle of reminders and making the same points in my head, over and over.
The hopelessness is crippling.
And yet, something (maybe my own desperateness) tells me there’s hope. I’ve been attempting to rely on God’s Word more and strengthen my faith in things unseen, rather than basing my belief in God on the physical, because there’s just gotta be so much more than that.
Anyways, I really just wanted to thank you for sharing this insight. It helps people more than you know. Praying that your faith keeps growing deeper
@@hannahisabelle342
Thank you SO much for sharing! I know it can be very hard to talk about your problems at times, especially when it’s something to do with your beliefs or you have questions, concerns or doubts. There were Bible writers, prophets and others who felt like you. Look at Enoch, Moses, David, Jeremiah, David, Elijah, Peter and Job to name a few. Also just because you’re young- you may find it hard to talk to adults and family but I’ll remind you that Jesus himself was a child when he was ministering in the temple. - *Luke 2:41-50*
And also that Jesus personally invited children and young ones to come to him to learn and talk. - *Mark 10: 13-16, Matthew 18:2-5, Matthew 19:13-15, Luke 18:15-17*
The humility, mildness, and curiosity of a child, or someone who wants to know things is praised.
Also *Psalm 34:8* is a personal invitation for you to “taste and see that God is good.” You may have some questions and doubts at first, or for a while. But you get to find out what kind of God he is for yourself.
*Romans 12:2* also encourages you to “prove to yourself, or “verify”, “test”, … the will of God.” So your faith doesn’t have to be blind acceptance or mysterious. You can find out that what God says is true, and beneficial for you.
The question posed by this video is a hard hitting one because depending on how people answer - really shows the big groups we have.
Agnostics: believe that God MAY exist but just doesn’t seem to care or want to bother with us and we have no proof because he isn’t fixing the suffering and evil we see.
Atheists: claim that he CANT exist because the God that’s described in the Bible as a loving, just, caring God could in no way see what’s all going on in the world and continue to allow it. Therefore must not exist and it’s a lie. Or he’s not all powerful and CANT do anything about it even if he does exist.
Many “Christians” will say they don’t know why, or that God is “in control” and we can’t question him. He “works in mysterious ways” or that somehow he is all good and all powerful- yet he also must have created and permits evil and suffering and therefore it’s just the way things are.
Which still leaves questions honestly and is confusing.
*Revelation 12:9* - tells us that Satan/ the “great dragon” was hurled down to the vicinity of the earth.
*1 John 5:19* - tells us plain and simply that basically because of that, the “whole world is in the power of the wicked one”.
Sometimes, in fact, many times Satan (Gods enemy) IS the cause of a lot of the problems we face. He is definitely the root. *1 Peter 5:8, Revelation 12:12*
Other reasons for the different problems we face though are sometimes you can be in the wrong place at the wrong time, it just happened to be that time and place, and you were there. - *Ecclesiastes **9:11**,12*
It could simply be an accident that was no one’s fault in particular. An example in Jesus time he refers to *Luke 13:4* , where a tower fell on and killed 18 people. He said they were no more or less guilty than others.
*Proverbs 22:8, Galatians 6:7,8* - there are times where it could be a persons own fault, their own actions that get them into a particular situation. A very famous and basic principle that “you reap what you sow”.
*Ecclesiastes 8:9, 2 Timothy 3:1-5* are other examples. It be acts of evil from wicked and evil people. They have been throughout history - and in these “last days” it’s only getting worse.
We should also expect to endure some hardships and difficulties as servants of God. The road isn’t going to be easy. And if they HATED Christ, they are going to continue to hate his followers.- *John 15:20, 2 Timothy 3:12 Matthew 5:10*
And lastly just living in sin and imperfection in this world that we inherited. Sickness, death, growing old, themselves come with many pains and trials. - *Ecclesiastes **7:20**, Romans 3:23, Romans 5:12-14*
These are the reasons behind the suffering and evil we face. To add to my original post about *Why God ALLOWS it all* beyond the fact that we are given a chance to prove and show our faith in him, and prove that we support his right to rule, opposite what Satan and Adam and Eve did.
God is *ALLOWING* it to go on for a short time because he has told us in his word at *Matthew 24:14, Mark 13:10, Revelation 14:6* that we must preach first before he ends it. Yes we’re dealing with a lot of problems right now BUT, he is giving everyone the chance to get to know him, and come to have faith and hear the message and repent before carrying out judgement. This is a beautiful display of his *LOVE* and *JUSTICE*
*Romans 2:4* - he is being kind.
*2 Peter 3:9* - he doesn’t want anyone to be destroyed
*Habakkuk 2:3* - when this prophet was asking God “how long” would things be allowed to be like they were, he was assured that it would stop but it’s also on Gods timetable not ours. He sees and will make the determination WHEN to stop it finally.
Keep up reading your Bible, studying, asking questions and meditating or thinking deeply about things.
@@hannahisabelle342 also I HAVE to respond to what you said about hopelessness. I can empathize with what you’re saying because when questions come up, or you feel like your problems are piling up and you can’t do anything about them, it can be frustrating and feel like a losing battle. Especially when you throw doubts and having your faith questioned.
Going back to the example of Job I think it’s fair to say few may be able to relate to the absolute despair and sorrow and depression he must have been feeling.
When you read his story just the way it all piled up on him very close together must have been extremely overwhelming. All he could do was sit in the burnt out ashes of a fire, rub them on himself and scrape himself with pieces of a broken pot. Then his “friends” turn on him and aren’t helping him at all. Before they even talk to him they get there and sit with him for days not even saying anything. Just watching him sit there helpless.
But one very important thing about Job is that he was NOT *HOPELESS* .
*Job **14:13**-15* Job had the HOPE that even if he died, God would remember him and then resurrect him.
*Hebrews 11:1* the chapter of Faith- tells us what faith is, and then provides examples of those who had faith and what it allowed them to do. Faith and hope have a VERY close relationship.
Faith is an “assured expectation, of what is *hoped* for, the evident demonstration of REALITIES that are not seen”.
In other words you could define scriptural faith as the realization that your hope is real. It’s based on evidence. Realities. These evidences and facts are recorded in the Bible and many in that very chapter for us to be reminded of. Abraham and Sarah, Moses, Noah, etc etc etc.
A prophecy about Jesus that David wrote in *Psalms 16:8-11* showed that Jesus had hope when he was on earth.
Peter talked about this again when he wrote *Acts 2:25-28*
*Romans 5:3-5* is a good reason to not feel hopeless. Yes you may deal with a lot at times BUT, enduring it builds up hope, and even says an approved condition or standing before God
*James 1:12* again the hope to receive life.
There is much more I could say but you many many scriptural reasons to keep your hope and faith alive. Just keep it real to you, no matter what you go through. The very absolute worst thing that can happen in this world is that we die, but God can undo that and resurrect us. And he has promises for the future for his faithful servants. We can have so many more reasons to be *HOPEFUL* rather than *hopeless*.
@@spencer8388 The amount of effort and understanding put into this kind of response just blows me away. Thank you so much for taking the time and opportunity to help encourage me where I’m at. It’s people like you that make it evident that God was never done with me, and never will be. I really really appreciate the ways you’ve compiled so many useful scriptures into an order that emphasizes their importances and connections with each other, which only shows more of how consistent the Bible is.
Seriously, thank you so much. This has helped me more than you could imagine.
The Bible: the magical book with all the magical answers. And what is magic other than sleight of hand? Even Christians admit that anyone can get the Bible to say anything. That's why even athiests quote the Bible to disprove the Bible. If the Bible can be made to say anything, in reality it says nothing. To argue that your right hand is actually your left hand is a useless statement.
Thank you, you’re helping me find god, I’m a former atheist and your videos really did help me a lot, especially now in times I’m in.
Amen friend but is all God not me. He’s just using me. Ha. I hear you, I was pretty much an atheist too at one point. Just keep searching for truth. I hope everything is ok. And I wish you peace. Thank you very much for this comment.

This video made me cry😭😭. I've always been a loyal follower of God but I would always begin to question God when it comes to evil. I think I can hold onto the message this video has given to me for the days to come
For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever. Psalm 9:18
Actually, it is more of what God can’t allow himself to do and it is also the answer for the question of why does God let bad things happen. Many would readily and vehemently disagree, but God does not have an actual plan for the world. What he does have is hope for the world through his endowment of free will. God does not know the future, but he does know the infinite number of possibilities required for his gamble on ‘free will’ to succeed. Interfering with that would alter the delicate balance of the human condition equivalent of the ‘Goldilocks Effect’.
@johncollins7062 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Isaiah 46:10
Everything he says here is the complete opposite if everything you just said. Human will isn't that important in the grand scheme of things. Why would human will matter more than the will of devils or angels? Or beast? Just because human beings are made in his image? God shows no being favoritism. Neither does he have any particular bias towards any being. For his glory's sake, he exalts us as his children. And he does it for his by his own will.
@@xavierthomas5835- I never said anything of [ Human will ], whatever that is; and God never said any of your citations either. Free will is the most complicated proposal in he history of the universe. So difficult, in fact, it even took God four billion years to put it in place. I would vehemently disagree and reaffirm anything taking that long, to endow, would positively be [ that important in the grand scheme of things. ]
Perhaps, if my name were Graham or Confucius, you might take my overture more seriously; regardless, that is something for you to reconcile within. Still, I hope you do something to help you have convivial conversations, instead of trying to win a non-existent argument.
The better question is why would people be against God ending suffering?
As long as we are in this world we will suffer, it is a fact of life. Christ promises us hope, and salvation at the end of the road. While we are here, he bears our pain with us, so we don’t go through it alone.
@backwoodsonthabeat7783 Jesus took all suffering to the cross. When people believe this, their suffering will end. We serve a supernatural God. We must worship him in the spirit.
@@backwoodsonthabeat7783 This does not address the Problem of Evil. _Why_ is suffering a fact of life? This implies that suffering is an inherent aspect of reality, or necessary, which cannot be the case if God is omnipotent. God is capable of manipulating the properties of reality in any way he chooses, so if he is truly omnibenevolent, why does he allow suffering to exist?
@@TheOneAndOnly-t5hevil is not the presence of a bad force. Evil is an absence of good, and God is good. God has given us free will to accept him, he will not force you to believe in him and he will not force his presence on you.
@@goastlyarrowplays If evil is entirely passive and has no active component, then why are specific actions considered evil?

The humility we need to comprehend all this is never enough. Thank you for this enlightening gem. God has spoken through you in this beautiful video and that is a wonderful feeling felt not just by you but by all who witness it.

When I finished watching this video, I broke down crying. I realized that my entire life desperately searching for an answer and a solution has not only left me with nothing but has made my life worse. I grew bitter, cold, and angry. Although I thought I had stayed true to my Faith, it was only used to fuel anger, rage, and violence. God does not want this for me, I realize this now. But He doesn't want me to give into temptations, ideologies, and sin either. No matter how hated, I shall stand and be one with Christ. For His love is more vital than any hatred mankind could ever conjure.

Same here, been having these types of questions, and this guy answers them like no other, man, much love
If anyone hasn't read "The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky I highly recommend it. There has not been a novel so rich and fearless in its philosophical discussions than in this novel. The ideas that are so difficult for us to confront are addressed and it truly changed my life and the lives of everyone I know who has read it. Irregardless of your ideological dispositions, there is something in it for you which will allow you to reflect on your existence and its meaning.
While I am someone who has made their own religion taking inspiration off of Buddhism, your video spoke to me in a very emotional way and I commend you for it... It hasn't changed my skepticism of the existence of God but it did help me see things from a different point of view.. I'm happy I came across your channel, keep up the great work man.

Daily meditation and prayer helps ☯️
It's important to remember that God gave us free will to choose whatever we want and Satan is the one that brings on all this so it's important to remember that Jesus died for our sins so we can go to heaven and there is a promise of heaven and where there is no wars killings hatred so thank you to Jesus Christ for putting his life on the cross so we could have eternal life that is what it's all about we won't get a great life here but we will in heaven that's what it was promised to us by God himself he gave us the Free Will you can choose to be sad and suffer or you can choose Jesus Christ that is yourhimself 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤
your use of sufferings, not only by Job but of God’s only Son really puts into perspective everything He went through. God bless you.
The life of Job was such a blessing to me I always reminded myself that no matter what I've been struggling I know there still more people who suffered more than me and God just testing my Faith on him
What a great response! Your words will echo in my life as I deal with chronic pain. I trust in God and the process. I will now pay closer attention not to the struggle or pain itself, but how I and others REACT to it and LEARNED from it, and hopefully do better as I learn from them.. ALL bc of YOU!

Please consider this scenario:
A man is waiting at a crosswalk of a busy intersection. He hears the cries of a terrified mother behind him. Turning around, he sees a toddler running in his direction, giving every sign the child will run past him and bolt into traffic.
Now the man realizes that he could effortlessly extend his hand and stop the toddler, saving the child's life. He also understands stopping the child will prevent the untold heartaches of a mom watching her child horribly die, the trauma of the striking motorist, and the grief of every witness, relative and friend.
Instead the man freely chooses to do nothing. Brakes screech, vehicles collide, lives are ruined and one is lost. The crosswalk light changes, and the man simply walks around the carnage and continues on his way, thinking "I will do the same in the future."
Do you think he acted reasonably?
Did he show any empathy or compassion?
And a simple yes/no moral question: _Is the man who let a child needlessly die evil?_
Sending prayers and love
I rarely comment on videos, but your videos have changed my perspective a lot. I have always felt beat down after temptations and resort to resentment for not controlling my mind. I wanted to run away from my temptations instead of facing them directly with His help. And each time, I gave in to temptations, I felt remorseful than ever, but I know these are only temporary as God will help us battle our most evil thoughts. Jesus died for us, so we could live free from sins. Thank you Lord ❤

I would take 20 mg of melatonin at 12am just to wake up again fully awake at 3am I would hear scratching on the walls foot steps on the roof and when I did sleep it was horrible nightmares of demons and me dying. I felt so hopeless I constantly felt like I was just waiting for some one to kick my door in and shoot me I was slowly starting to lose everyone around me because they all thought I was loosing my mind which was the hardest part because who really believes in demons and voodoo ? To everyone I was just a screw up and on drugs always being dismissed as crazy it was frustrating my marriage was falling apart and had no one to lean on I would cry myself to sleep because how do you fight what you can't see? It was like being on a conveyor belt slowly being dragged to the slaughter all while watching the people who did this steel my business and spread rumors to ensure I wouldn't be able to get back in and being mocked every time I saw them on the road while driving around ( also had a few attempts on my life that I survived by God's saving Mercy they cut my breaks and several other things ) . It wasn't till I cried out to God that I was provided a path out of it all it wasn't what I pictured, in my mind I thought He would swoop down and crush them and give me all my business back and be like it was before but it was slow yet through it I understand how to appreciate peace that still quiet peace is so precious that we don't understand that until it gone I had none but when He restored that one thing it was like a flood of water in a dry river bed I was so happy 😊 I was directed to a church that kept the Sabbath (was a thing for me to keep all His precepts by choice) from there the first day I went it was like the guest pastor was specifically speaking to me about turning away from the world and it's deceptive riches and the idolatry behind them I ran to the bathroom and cried my heart out 😭 came back everyone saw my tears though I tried to hide them , they hugged me and prayed for me and anointed my head with oil I went home did the same to the house and my sleep was restored I was no longer being awaken at 3 and we caught the spirit walking past the front of the house at 3 am on our front door camera it was so creepy and crazy to see that soon after I spoke to a brother in Christ that prayed for me and casted off of me demons of oppression it was like a light switch was flicked he prayed for me as He was praying I almost blacked out threw up 5 times and felt a rushing wind leave my body and with it all the fear all the anxiety and all the negativity along with it soon after I was led to a fellowship thats now my family in Christ and have found a job and realized all the material things dont matter and if we appreciate all the small victories and blessings we are so much happier like the fact that you woke up today is a miracle that some did get today so appreciate it 💕 Love God first and foremost and have a attitude of gratitude the enemy seek to kill steel and destroy don't let him steel your joy destroy your hope and kill your future because he is a liar, there are better days ahead in Jesus name .
@@SauerkrautX The problem is we live in a materialistic world where we value ourselves for what we have or how many people envy us , none of that matters at all we all go to the grace we will all stand before God and have to answer what we did with our lives and what we did to advance His kingdom. And id rather be the lowly man that told everyone about His saving grace than the millionaire stock broker who lived as his own god serving only his pleasures.
Seek FIRST the kingdom of God and His righteousness and everything else will be added unto you. Wish I could give you my entire testimony because so many times I knew God was working through dreams visions and people He placed in my path.
@@EZ123EZ I never once mentioned about owning things or how much people like me, so I don’t even know why you brought that up. I want to know what your story is. If you don’t want to tell it, then that’s fine.
I always buried these questions deep inside. But you have shown me the way.
"If one chooses to conquer, he shall. If one chooses to not love and conquer, they shall be conquered by evil"
The way that god makes people the way they are?
God creates people.
People are the way they were created as.
People kill.
God knew all of this, yet he did nothing. He watches, as humanity suffers on in its endless strive towards more suffering.

I’ve never seen someone approach this question in the way you have. This is an amazing video and I will for sure remember it for years to come
Trust in the Lord o my soul for my hope comes from him. I wrote a horrible exam yesterday and today I felt like I lost hope because I prayed and studied but disappointment is always at the door. Watching this video gave me encouragment for if God is for us who can be against us. Thank you brother🤍❤🤍
Thank you kind stranger for this wonderful video. I just don't really have words for how moving this is. Jesus loves you all, take care of yourself and those around you
One of the best videos I've ever seen. Answering every queries I had and perhaps the ones others did. Restoring the faith in God and his wisdom. Lots of love.
I lost a brother even before he was born; I was destroyed, but I didn't get angry with God, because I know everything happens for a reason.
He died for absolutely no any reason and even if there was one, it's still is a tragedy
With respect, if you had met that brother and he had lived until 6 maybe you probably wouldn't be saying he died for a reason.
I prayed today, and I usually don't. I just slowly found back to faith and am desperate for God's love and answers.
I have never seen your videos pop up in my feed until today.
I asked God for guidance and there comes your video, that feels like a big brother lays his arm around me and shares his wisdom.
Just like Hannah, I'm suffering from the unfulfilled desire of having children and my husband is dealing with male infertility due to Testosterone therapy for over 10 years.
The constant waiting for improvements, for changes is ripping me apart and I constantly ask, WHY? It brings up all the shame, the lack of love for myself.
Your video is the first thing that actually gives me some comfort today. It makes me feel like I'm not alone in this.
Man you make me tear up every time. Thank you for these videos, these awakenings. It helps me so much.
Tears are a sign of the spirit. You’re very welcome. Thank you for this comment. 🙏
Why does God allow bad things to happen? Because it’s a perfect opportunity for God’s love to be demonstrated and proves that Him and His love will always be more powerful than any kind of evil.
So God is doing Show-off.
@notatrueweeb9378 God lets bad things happen to test our faith. And God already knows how we'll respond. But God still lets it happen because he wants a genuine relationship with you.
@@notatrueweeb9378 God is real and loves you. He loves you so much that he died for you. If you ever get told that God isn't real, then don't ever get fooled by those lies.
@@notatrueweeb9378 You should always believe in God. He is real and loves you. The Big Bang was proven to be false. But the LORD'S word and himself is proven by many to be real. I pray these words touch you. God bless you brother in Christ. 🙏 ❤

Stop cursing its a sin dude!!!!!!!!!!!!
You truly have a gift to give profound yet simple visualizations for such deep topics. This is your ministry. Thank you so much
As an atheists, I did find this comforting, it has given me a way to deal with aspects of my life in general, to go on with life despite of all it's cruelty. (read the all the replys for better context)
I didn't
@@jnmarshmello2728 well to be more specific, just live on with life and 'radiate endless amounts of love' - Buddha, or something like that.
@@generalyapwt i have no intention of dying, im just saying I didn't find the video comforting i saw it as confronting
How are you then an atheist?
@@fetB what makes you say that?
I listen to this almost every day before I go to work and when I get home to help me deal with people.
these videos always give me a better perspective in life, im trying to get closer to god and your videos always help me overcome the sadness i feel, i cant explain how much your videos impacted my life for the best
My theory is he loves us deeper than things that dont matter in thr end. Time marches on and eitherway he'll be with us
Doesn't help
For some reason, the perfect video appeared on my home page at the perfect time. Thank you
Praise God.
I believe God exists because we haven't destroyed ourselves yet. Somehow humanity keeps going with all the evil and cruel things we do to our fellow men and women. The reason bad things happen is they must in order for us to learn to true meaning of life and to choose to not do them and avoid what we can and to help others in ways we can.
At what cost?
@@UwUImTheo the cost of learning the lesson!
blame politics
Everytime i feel lost or had a really bad day, i always come back to these video to let myself know that im not alone.
Great perspective, I usually see it from the fact that once humans sinned God took a step back from the earth, and let us commit the evils in our hearts through our free will due to our willingness to sin, and that perversion entered God's world therefore. But to see it from this new perspective of it's not about evil things happening but our response to it through Jesus Christ is something really interesting and enlightening. I will be keeping both these perspectives in mind and reflecting on them whenever I am going through trouble, and I pray you all do to.
Sometimes we need to experience the bad thing to know how good the good things are.
((Long Post))
This is my own explanation when someone asks me about why God allows Evil. We cannot comprehend what He thinks, and it’s foolish to try. We are not God, we cannot know why He does the things he does, nor why he allows what we perceive as Evil to occur.
Let’s look at the Beggar living in the streets for a moment. He’s been homeless for 5 years now. During those first 2, times were desperate and horrifying, to say the least. But by year 3, he started to understand the ways of street life and by year 5 he had come to accept his Life. He no longer craved the instant pleasures of Society, he no longer cared to own a big house just to flash his junk at people and say “Look how much money I make?”
All he wants is to just live and let live, and be happy with the life he now chooses. He doesn’t harm anyone, he doesn’t cause issues. He just doesn’t care for the fast-paced stress of the day-to-day societal pressures of working to buy a house and a car, to go out with friends and party, etc.
On the streets. He is happy, Life moves a lot slower and he can truly appreciate the beauty in the smallest of things, like how devout an ant can be to building its colony and protecting its queen, or how wonderful the changing of the seasons are when you’re outside every single day with nothing but time to witness the world.
And because of this, he has found the true meaning of Life itself. And Jesus said, “Blessed are the ones who have suffered, for they have find Life.”
.
Now let’s look at the man who was born into the highest possible class of his society one could hope to attain. From the moment he was born, he has been given absolutely everything; And until the day he dies, he will never have to work or worry about money because he has millions that were gifted to him by his family waiting for him on the day he turns 18.
He spends his entire life getting every single possible item he could want, he never has to choose because why choose when money solves everything? He travels the entire world hundreds of times before he’s even in high school because he was home schooled by the best private Teachers money can buy.
When he turns 18, he is no longer shielded by his parents and has to make all of his financial decisions on his own. Not wanting to give up the lifestyle he knows, he blows through $15 Million USD by the time he turns 25, and then begs his family to give him more.
They say, “How could you possibly have blown through all of that money? Why didn’t you invest? Why didn’t you start a business or something? Why didn’t you grow your portfolio?”
But that’s because he never took business classes, he never took financial courses, he never had a need to do such a thing. His family assumed he’d watch their success as he grew up and just magically become successful on his own.
Now he’s broke and he’s desperate to continue the only life he’s ever known, but he has no money and his family refuses to give him any more aid as an adult; But yet, he’s never worked a single day in his life at anything even remotely considered a Job.
Because of this, he knows nothing but suffering. He becomes depressed, he turns to drug use to numb the pain, he refuses to get a job and actually work toward attaining the social status he once had by his own volition and hard work.
.
Unfortunately, we have to understand what evil and suffering is in some capacity if we wish to know what true Good and Peace are. Many would kill to have what the second man in this Hypothetical scenario had, but being the person born into that situation; He has no understanding of true suffering.
He never knew what it was like to be denied a $1 million dollar car for his 15th birthday, much less what it’s like to have 3 children with a partner who abandoned you, and now you have to work 2 jobs during the week and a 3rd job on the weekend just to keep your children alive. Yet, because you are trying so hard to put food on the table, you never have a chance to actually spend time with your kids when they’re kids and suddenly they’re adults who hate you because they think you were cold and distant in their childhood.
They don’t know what it’s like to have to wonder if you’re going to lose power to your entire neighborhood for an unknown period of time because some drunk idiot smashed into a light pole, but because you live in such an impoverished area, it takes over a week for them to actually come and fix it.
They don’t know what it’s like to grow up in an Orphanage wondering if you’ll die from the cold, or from starvation, or from sheer neglect at any moment because there are only 2 adults looking after a group of 100 children stuffed into a small building.
@@johnnyrocket1685Okay, but saying we don't know still leaves a gap in the understanding. I get your scenarios, but they're cherry-picked. What about the child in Africa who starved at the age of 2? What about the thousands killed by the atomic bomb? What about the dead from cancer? They didn't do anything wrong, there is no lesson to be taught.
@@thebrushman4123they are fycking together in heaven right now, is that what you wanted to hear?
It's just it, they die, it goes black, forever, there's no hell nor heaven for you to stay, there's no such friction thing that prevent you form the worst death, the true emptiness, there's no actually good ending for one, it's only the worst of worst, don't be frustrated if your life doesn't last long because at the end the death will overwhelm the happiness you got form staying here
I believe in my own god... It's the void, you won't be able to convince me to believe in your god so don't try
You are so gifted! Thank you for the creative ways you describe God's love for us. May God continue to bless you and all that you do!

This video just rocked my world in the BEST way! I have needed this since 2015. Somebody to just … lay it out like that! You have been given a precious GIFT. Thank you 🙏🏻 From the bottom of my heart and for the rest of my life 🥲
Amen. This is my most favorite comment in a long time. Peace my friend. 🙏.
Brought a tear in my eye . Thank you . Thank you Jesus
This was perfectly explained and so understandable. You’re not trying to make it complicated & have us keep asking “button why?”…just straight to the point & real with your answer/response. Only thing that matters is we walk by faith & have to trust him, remain loyal to him No matter what. Sometimes we focus too much on all the bad things and forget about all the great amazing things he’s done and our life. God is good and you my friend are amazing! Love this ❣️🙏🏼😇🙏🏼
Amen. Thanks for the comment Kim. Peace. 🙏
Please consider this scenario:
A man is waiting at a crosswalk of a busy intersection. He hears the cries of a terrified mother behind him. Turning around, he sees a toddler running in his direction, giving every sign the child will run past him and bolt into traffic.
Now the man realizes that he could effortlessly extend his hand and stop the toddler, saving the child's life. He also understands stopping the child will prevent the untold heartaches of a mom watching her child horribly die, the trauma of the striking motorist, and the grief of every witness, relative and friend.
Instead the man freely chooses to do nothing. Brakes screech, vehicles collide, lives are ruined and one is lost. The crosswalk light changes, and the man simply walks around the carnage and continues on his way, thinking "I will do the same in the future."
Do you think he acted reasonably?
Did he show any empathy or compassion?
And a simple yes/no moral question: _Is the man who let a child needlessly die evil?_
@@humbleevidenceaccepter7712 Yes, that man is evil, seeing that he has the capability to save the innocent child.
@@Darth_Vader258 Thanks for the honest answer. Now please consider a follow up question:
You rightfully called the man evil because he knowingly let one child needlessly and horribly die.
_Wouldn't a god who knowing lets thousands needlessly and horribly die in earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, famines, etc. every single day be even more evil?_
(If you answer anything other than 'yes,' please explain why you hold that omnipotent god to lower conduct standards of reason, empathy, and morality than that one imperfect lowly mammal. Expecting a mortal man to act BETTER than a god makes as much sense as expecting an unruly un-housebroken dog to act better than its well-mannered trainer)
@@humbleevidenceaccepter7712 That's TRUE, I wonder why God ALLOWED INNOCENT children and animals to SUFFER and DIE.
My friend died few weeks ago but what helped me cope was knowing that soul is immortal and untainted and I hope he mustve reincarnated somewhere good place.
My friend shot herself a few months ago. I got to hear the news a month after her passing through an obituary sent to me by another friend. I was devastared. I couldn't do anything but cry and cry and cry. I began to hurt myself, again. I began to avoid going outside or to do anything. One day my dad forced me to go to a church event in Haaga. He didn't know, and he still doesn't know of my friend's passing. I was struggling to do anything there. I was glued to my phone until I eventually ran out of battery. I was alone. We were about to eat, and I prayed. The pain went away. All of it. For the first time in weeks I didn't feel like crying. I missed her, I still do, but the sorrow was overcome. Like the fog had lifted. The burden had been lifted off of me. I don't have words for how thankful I am
This is the best video I have ever seen on youtube or any social media platform.
Wonderfully well done! 10/10.
All glory to God for this man's talents and content. All glory to God for his platform to spread his Word. Lot of understanding and wisdom in this content. Please keep publishing and giving all glory to the LORD!
As a Christian myself with struggling faith, it is not about the fact that evil happens, it's rather that he is seemingly nowhere in our struggles and suffering. Love requires action. Where is his helping hand?
While I will never be able to prove his involvement anywhere, I do believe that "Serendipity" is usually indicator of his involvement.
For example, miracles check for a single mother's when she needs it the most, maybe beating cancer, etc.
My doubt rather comes at the perceived lack of his involvement, because I can never know the full story of who he helps and how, however I ask myself what distinguishes me from other's tragedies happening to me? Am I special? I don't believe so. I believe he values us equally.
However, I am a sinner just like those that experience tragedy, likely worse, however I haven't experienced their tragedy.
Before I used to be a devout Christian, but after an incident with suffering I believe he could've helped me in, it truly rocked my faith as a man in his 20s, because I was devout to him even in pain, hoping I'd be able to see his help.
I don't know how my story might play out, but i don't plan to respond with more sinful attitude.
However, that doesn't mean that I don't consider him like a missing father. Something the author of this video has likely not experienced, and therefore can not holistically understand this kind of pain and therefore crevice in any relationship with God (even though the author concludes implying he truly understands)
Fuck Christianity
If God exists, I see god as an absent, manipulative and abusive parent and totally unworthy of anyone's love. As a father if I were to give god a grade I would not only give him an F minus, I would multiply that failing grade to infinity. No matter what my children did or ever may do will I EVER want to see them suffer in eternal loneliness and misery. They know because I have proven multiple times that I love them, will go to ultimate extremes to protect and defend them, and would NEVER turn my back on them.

The OP half assed mentioned Job, and chose not to mention the fact GOD MADE A DEAL WITH SATAN!! GOD GAVE SATAN PERMISSION TO INFLICT THESE TORTURES. GOD FORBID SATAN TO KILL JOB. Death would have been much more merciful than the torture GOD ALLOWED SATAN TO INFLICT these horrific events on an elderly human being AND DID NOTHING TO STOP SATAN, he supposedly just stood by and watched. When Job questioned god why; God egotistically responded with a shaming lecture.
@@juans9515there's no rhyme or reason for any of this. If there is a God, he is truly one of the most evil and cruel entities to ever grace this universe. The curse of evil only gets deeper. Poverty, twisted governments, secret societies, nuclear bombs, dead children, cancer, greed, misinformation, ignorance. And what good is there to offset the deep rooted evil that runs this planet? A loving father would never let his child set foot on this shithole of a planet. He either doesn't exist or he is all for the evil that makes us suffer.
When dear folk are in pain or grief it's not always easy to discuss deep ideas. We either run to God or away from Him, either
Trust Him no matter what or blame Him.
The only person that knows all and can help is God but often our definitions of God are based on our own ideas ,so we think He is just a best version of ourselves.
In my grieving experience the only place to start after one stops yelling at or accusing God ( if that's what you do)is getting to know His character through the entire Bible and coming with a truth seeking heart looking for God's answers not ours.
This is my experience and that of many others.
I sadly meet many folk. Who after suffering grief or hurt of any kind have lived in a state of emotional paralysis fir 50-50+ years .
Still Angry and blaming God.
This self destruct seems to ease their pain.
Well said. Thank you. 🙏
I gotta say... From all the christian content out there, this is the best one I found. I understand that everyone has their preference on listening to God's word and all, but you have an approach that is certainly the best in my opinion. Thank you... I consider myself strong and always try to take care of my faith, but seeing your content makes it even better, so again, thank you. I'm really going to be watching your content even more. You got yourself a sub, buddy.
@T Bone even if there was, and even if it was christ, the bible is definetly inaccurate
I remember seeing this video once before but I thought nothing of it, however months after I found myself asking that question and found this video once more.
The video is well done, the audio, the animation, typography, your southing voice, and inspiring message it brings. Honestly the few of the last lines of the video almost brought me to tears 'Come on now let's do this together'. As the simple illustration of Jesus helped the other illustration to which I interpret as a person in need or yourself who's someone in need, helps lift the cross, it just struck a cord with me.
Again well done, and make sure to make more videos!
thank you for this, as im walking through some stuff this helped me to remember He will never leave me nor forsake me❤
I'm very grateful to find your videos and it has helped me to answer a lot of questions I may have asked myself. So I thank you brother and may yahweh bless you. You've helped me and I don't know why your channel isn't bigger
I appreciate this. Thank you my friend, and may God bless you.
Hello there!
I'm an Atheist but I still come back to your videos time to time because I've always question my belief in being a good person, being selfless and all the virtues that I've believed in ever since I was a child. This video of yours certainly solidified my faith in being good (not in a sense where I believe in God like Christians do).
Thank you so much pal!
Hi I was just going to ask why you believe in doing the right thing if its not for God. Because if you don't believe in God... why does doing the right thing and trying not to sin even matter to you
@@Maul222we still have morals
@@andrewski8189 I wasn't replying to you but I will say this anyway. From my perspective all sin is equal (so swearing is the same as murder ) but as the world gets worse, more and more sin gets "bumped down the ladder" so to speak, of how bad it really is, (just 24 years ago same-sex mirage was not legal in the US) ( s*x before mirage is more common than ever ) (no one cares about saying f bombs or any other swear word ) ( crimes are more widely excepted in country's that are supposed to be more developed ) what I mean by all of this is that your "morals" are far different now than what they would have been 50 years ago and they will continue to change as long as they are connected to the world and not to God. I hope I don't come across as rude by saying this, all I am trying to do is inform you.
@@Maul222 I completely get what you mean, however there's really nothing I can say to counter this as it's just facts, although to say every sin is the same is such a flawed opinion
@@andrewski8189 The reason we say "all sin is the same" is because God has told us not to break any of his rules and if we break one we break them all (but we can never be perfect so that is why we need Jesus who died on the cross and payed for all our sins, so now that they have been payed we will go to haven nonmatter what [but we will still try to obey him to the best of our abilities]) (when it comes to applying all this in everyday life [yes] we do treat all sin differently, like if my friend lies I won't treat them like a murder, BUT in the grand scheme of things all sin is the same to God. Besides that I think you are a pretty reasonable person to have a good conversation with I will continue to pray for you and I wish you a great day.
I guess it’s like In a world where the darkness of evil is so prevalent, only those who believe and are close to the Lord will receive his light and with this gift of light they will become beacons in the darkness for the lost to follow, I guess that’s why the it is written in scripture to help spread the word so that others may light their way and never stumble in the darkness again. Great video amen brother
