This one hits so different because this verse is so clear and direct and the examples you gave are 100% perfectly proven! You did an amazing job with this video, Kristi!
great video. But been awesome to READ YWH STONE LAWS. and what YWH COMMANDS to do to INNOCENT WOMAN and CHILDREN. COMMANDS to EAT FLESH.. You talked about the WATER GENOCIDE but have get into the details. Hey YWH, SPAWN DUPES you MORAL MONSTERS with your PSYCHO , MANIAC DRAGONS JUSTIFTY ANY of THIS FILTH.
Yes, even have to DIE willingly for an Invisible Being cuz this Being requires it😢, the Christian org I’m in sucks, will always show videos of followers in other countries being persecuted even to the small children attending that meetings. I feel sorry for those kids, need to watch with their indoctrinated parents those persecuted scenes and has to be “fearful” to think maybe someday they got to be PERSECUTED for a God😢
@@skyeprophet3564there’s not an atheist book that’s trying to run the country, taking people’s rights, and being shoved and beaten into people to believe in it.. nice try though😂😂😂
In fact, the Bible itself it the best condemnation of Chritianity that there could possibly be. So many people have left the faith after examining the scriptures.
@@jezebelvibes I was raised in a moderate version of Christianity In Canadian United Church. Wasn't burdened with a whole lot of hell fear. I left the church as a teenager but still carried some residual sentimentality for the Bible. But then in late 20's I read the Bible for myself. When I read the passage below it was as if the 'scales fell from my eyes'. I suddenly realized the Bible was written by power-obsessed men and not some merciful God. After a military victory against the Midianites Moses is angry with his generals for returning with too many prisoners. 17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. 18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. (Numbers 31:17-18 King James Version)
@@douglascutler1037Yes, especially Numbers is too insane😅. In the Christian org meetings my family attends, they will have a discussion mostly about OT scriptures and just this Sunday they were all discussing about the events in Numbers. One believer had commented, it was a nice victory for the Israelites to kill the Midianites and brought glory to The Lord😮 Something is wrong with these believers mind😅made me scared listening their comments cuz usually they are a kind person. The gap of it is hard to understand😅
@@lh1673 That is indeed chilling but not surprising. I'm highly informed by evolutionary psychology and sociobiology. The lesson there is tribalism could very well be in our DNA. If there is any any way forward it is with emergent evolution: more science, more reason, good governance, human rights, education. But the human psyche is still very susceptible to emotional overrides of the noecortex, the ancient fight or flight responses that served is well in the forest primeval but are a liability in the complex modern world.
Reading the Bible was the worst thing I could do for my faith. It's when I realized that the God I was being preached about is not at all the same as the one from the Bible and that's when I started to realize the fairy tale I was taught growing up was all fake. Great video!
Happy you made it out. Reading the bible is the start of many deconstruction journeys 😄 that's why they make so many devotionals and study guides. Just let someone else tell you what it says 🤡
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. I wouldn't turn my back on Christ and his love for people. I will continue loving others and forgiving others, I hope you can too!
Jesus is VERY REAL but what makes it worse... He blesses the evilest of men to give them strength to their evil goals. My ex sells coke to minors and is fucking them while they make fun of me for not being like him, when I Thought God wouldn't want that, he blessed my ex. So the living God, is a POS being.
Yes! I know. When I start to question God, religion, Bible, etc Christians always tell me to study the Bible more (or pray, etc) but it’s those very things that draw me further away from religion and Christianity and, at this point, God. I never thought religion and the Bible would be the things to make me doubt and drive me away from religion and Christianity, but so far that’s what they are doing.
l am so happy that this community exists. l don't feel so alone in my thoughts anymore. Your train of thought, everything you spoke about, is exactly what l have been feeling as well, but never said out loud, especially looking back at how close l used to be with God, prayer, dreams, and things like that before deconstruction. l am happy to be part of this group... thank you for all that you do Kristi, enjoy watching all of your vids. keep it up.
In God's eyes, there is nothing good or righteous about mankind. We just don't cut it. We're very flawed and crude. A man's faith and trust is the only offering acceptable to God as righteous. Good deeds come and go like good weather. Tested faith is like hard currency in the hand. God chose faith as pre-eminent in mankind. It's more workable and emphasises relationship which is his intended purpose! Like any marriage, not everyone is faithful and there are degrees of being faithful. The nature of faith, like anything of value, is that it has to be tested and proven. Abraham was therefore accredited with righteousness because he had passed the test of faith. Therefore a relationship between God and his spiritual descendants came into existence. In return, God showing his faithfulness and love, sacrificed his son in actuality to redeem Abraham's spiritual descendants through his only son Jesus Christ. This is an extremely emotional and poignant moment for God. Everyone must understand sin can only be reconciled this way and can only be scrubbed out this way. Sin brings death. Jesus Christ is the only way. You must join the dots. Capiche?
If god was really so wonderful and amazing, he wouldn't need to start the commandments with "you shall have no other gods before me." It would be self-evident. And it isn't.
Your reasoning is so flawed. Man needs laws because man is rebellious and ignorant. Wayward man loves to craft false idols. Fallen humanity does stupid things. In fact, we have all kinds of laws today to prevent people from doing stupid things. I imagine you've watched many glorious sunsets, or you've looked up at the myriads of stars in the sky, and failed to acknowledge that God made it all, attributing it all to mere time and chance. Yup, that's the stupidity and ignorance I'm talking about.
Thinking back at what I was taught, it's amazing how many excuses I accepted for God. Some of the reasons include (1) we cant judge God because we dont have enough information/we cant see the full picture, (2) it's ok for God to be prideful because he actually is the best, its only wrong for humans because we're not God, (3) things changed because of Jesus and the New Testament, so we dont really need to worry about the actions of the OG God (4) God knows what is best for us better than we do, so who are we to say that what seems bad to us might actually be helping us grow, (5) God had to do things this way because it was the only way for humans to have free will, (6) everything that happens to us doesnt really matter because God created us and without him we wouldnt even be here in the first place so how can we complain, (7) God and sin can't mix, by definition, so there's really no way for him to let people who rebel against him into heaven. And the list goes on
@rboland2173 You lack understanding. The LAW existed to ensure the physical and mental well-being of God's people. The Messiah did not come to destroy this. Where is the contradiction? He encapsulated all of this law in two simple commandments. Where is the contradiction? Try your best to understand this. There existed and exist phenomena in the world superfluous to original design. Are you telling me these should be allowed to persist, and if so without condition?
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

@@dickersoncharlie4961 To TRULY love God we need to receive from Him HIS OWN NATURE as He pours His LOVE into our hearts. Blessed are those to whom this happens.
This is how I started my journey of becoming a "spiritual naturalist." I was a Christian for 9+ years and started seeing all of these contradictions and power control. The universe, energy, and laws of attraction will always make more sense to me. Thank you for sharing. 💯❤️
The real Jesus himself would be kicked out of the Current "church". Im a real Christian and have been kicked out of every church since really seekin christ. The current "church" is apostate, will take the mark given out by their "pastor" and will worship the antichrist.
In my opinion Christianity is full of lies, but that “energy”, “laws of attraction” and all that new age spirituality stuff is nonsense too. You’ll probably be better off studying a greek philosophy, like Stoicism, for the best way to live your life.
That's pretty much where I ended up too, having read the bible as a teenager and seeing the glaring inconsistencies and cruelties in the book. For the next 40-odd years I identified as Pagan (mainly for reasons of ecology and environmentalism) but now refer to Spirit or Source, and no, I don't fully understand how the Universe works and I'm ok with that. The fault, in my view, is with the authors of the various ''holy'' books, and those who decided to use their writings as the ultimate means of controlling people. Whatever Source may be, I am certain that ''God'' had very little to do with the atrocities committed by a bunch of ignorant Bronze Age or Iron Age tribes, all residing in a relatively small area of the Middle East. Whatever they did, thought or said is irrelevant and should in no way be taken seriously.
About that “keeps no record of wrongs” bs… Not only are we supposedly having to suffer the consequences of the wrong Adam & Eve did, but the book itself IS A RECORD showing their wrong doing! 🤔

How anyone can say God is love but also says "you're NOTHING without God, you don't even deserve the air you breathe. You are worthless and undeserving of God's love" but if you kiss his ass he'll "love" you
How unqualified. The Christian claim about God is that he is the author of all creation. So if he is, the very molecules of which you are composed are from God. What will you do without God? will you sustain your own life beyond the grave? It might be true that you don't even deserve the air you breathe, but God patiently provides you with air anyway. Doesn't sound like an evil and malicious God to me. It might be true that you are worthless and undeserving of God's love, but he chooses to send his own son to die for you on a cross. Doesn't sound like an evil and malicious God to me. You can live in your own self denial, justifying yourself and making out that "I don't deserve to go to Hell" but if you want to live apart from the God who gave you life, don't you even think you owe him anything for that existence. Sounds like a pretty entitled attitude to me. God doesn't make you "kiss his ass" in fact if you don't want to, you don't have to. I don't see you kissing his ass, though you exist and are enjoying a human life despite the wrong things you do. Oh, are you somehow perfect all of a sudden? Yes, I am generally a good person I hear you say. So because you think you are a good person, God should excuse all the bad things you do? Ok, God will allow you to believe that if you want to. He's not going to strike you down with a lightning bolt or anything like that. He will just patiently hold the door to his household open for you while your heart beats and while you draw breath hoping against hope that you will accept the smallest bit of humility and acknowledge your need for him. Patiently he will call to you through one person and then another, even though you will ignore his calls. Doesn't sound like an evil and malicious God to me. I think you have a poor perspective on God.
@@christophergibson7155 LOL you do know most of us treat your book like we treat lord of the rings books, difference is they're actually interesting. So threatening us with it does nothing. Calling me a sinner does nothing.
So he should love you if you hate him? Is this your argument? Because scripture says you should love your enemy. I wonder what more could possibly satisfy you. The truth is -- there exists things, creatures, and notions which should NOT exist. If this offends you, then you make clear on which side of the divide you happen to be.
The part where you said love keeps no record of wrongs but god literally kept all records of wrongs 😭😭😭 I never pointed this one out while deconstructing, this is so spot on
There's a difference between us and God, we have a different standard. Christianity is the only religion where God loved you enough to come down to this wrenched Earth (Jesus) and lived a perfect sinless life and died on the cross for our sins so instead of us having to pay a punishment four our sins, we can ask God for forgiveness of our sins and go to heaven. Also something else the video did not mention, in Christianity salvation is not earned, it is given as a gift. Titus 3:5 (KJV) Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us. God gives us mercy when we ask for it, God paid for our sin debt that separates us from him and heaven Romans 6:23 (KJV) For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 10:10 (KJV) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:13 (KJV) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. If you say this prayer in your heart "Lord Jesus, I know I'm a sinner and I don't deserve heaven. You died and rose from the dead for me. Please forgive me for my sins and take me to heaven when I die. thank you! AMEN. You turn become a Christan and become one of God's children and have everlasting life. Because God loved us first and showed it we love him as a result. That's how someone becomes a Christian. That's the main difference between Christianity from Judaism and Islam.
You also forget that Vengeance is Justice and God is an Ever loving Judge, if your child stole from a store and you where the Judge it would be bias to let them go without a bail, Jesus is that bail.
Yes. They FOLLOW YWH, SPAWN COMMANDS. MIGHT MAKES RIGHT. YWH, SPAWN COMMANDS it's MORAL and RIGHT. Weird how they don't obey so much of the COMAMANDS. How many are EUNUCHS. I love to EXPOSE YWH, SPAWN and you know how many NASTY NAMES I get CALLED. ALL I do is write what is in their UNHOLY BOOK. Oh they hate that.
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. God showed people his love for us by giving us a free way to heaven. I will continue to be a Christian and continue to love ane forgive others for faults. And that's not hateful in any way
@@dickersoncharlie4961 there are plenty of christians who aren't hateful and there are plenty who are.

Did you watch the video?

@@krembryle Brother, just like the fear of hell and bible god, I have to choose my words carefully for I've been warned. But I tell ya "christopath" is a good one.
It’s so hard following religion. Being a gay male is painful because the man that created me strongly hates the fact that I love a man that loves me and my Christian family condemns me because I don’t look like them. I don’t want to go to hell just for loving my partner. Why is that so evil?
if you follow religion you will never be satsified. You need to follow Christ alone, away from church. Find a bunch of bible believers and walk with them.
Has no one ever told you that you were born with a sinful nature. As a consequence of that sinful nature you commit sins. That sinful nature has brought death upon your soul. There is NO DIFFERENCE for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. That is why God sent His Son to die for you and me. He took our sins upon Himself, and God made Him the sin offering for us. Being gay is not your problem, it is the fact that you are condemned already from your sinful nature. Fornication, adultery, lustfulness, being a paedophile, etc. all sexual sins, are just the same as being a practising homosexual, so don't let that put you off Christianity. Christ died FOR YOU. Put you faith/trust in Him. He will forgive your sins and give you the power to walk before Him in a manner which glorifies Him. Let the Lord deal with your problem, you will be a new creation in Christ Jesus, and you will be amazed what He can do in your life if you let Him.
Kristi thank you for having the patience to try to reach people with reason. I read the comments here and it is amazing how people will come up with all matter of convoluted rationalizations to avoid facing plain truth. It’s tragic how brainwashed they are. There must be so much fear in their hearts, clinging to these silly fables terrified of the consequences of walking away. Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery.
The issue with this, is this God is REAL and I believe in him but also, like Kristi....I question God regardless of my faith in him. I'm a Christian who genuinely does not agree with Jesus A LOT. Unfortunately I died once and he is real, so my testimony says alot for me, yet I do question him
@@paulgavian90 when you die you hallucinate it’s a known fact. Your brain stays alive for a while after your body dies and obviously your not brain dead so it was just your body that died.

Rest assured, Ahura Mazda does not set you up to fail. They expect only Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Deeds. They don't want your sacrifices. They don't want your flattery.
All you have to do is trust in Jesus Christ. That He died for your sins and rose again. That He is the Saviour of your soul. Why do you reject Gods mercy and grace? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Your conscience will never stop bothering you because it is true that there will be judgement for sin and that God is holy. You know you are a sinner. That’s why you run from God. There is a way out of judgement and that’s through Jesus Christ alone.
@@kiana4803 No, you are not a sinner- you are a child of God, and the apple does not fall far from the tree.

I had a friend a few years ago who asked me what I thought "love" meant. With her word choice on phrasing her question, I told her my personal definition in a brief description. I said it's when you feel unconditional compassion and care for someone or something that means a lot to you. She then outright tells me that I was completely wrong with this tone as if I'd just described torture to her. Then she describes that only love for God and God's love for us is what love truly means and any other definition wasn't true. Basically, if God isn't involved, then it's not love. She's a cult-level Christian, so I wasn't too surprised with her response. If anything, more annoyed that my answer was invalidated when she asked for it. I think she was only looking for a chance to talk about religion since she's the type that won't even blink if she thought it'd be a sin! I'm not in contact with her anymore, but I so wish I could've rebutted her with this video. lol
" I said it's when you feel unconditional compassion and care for someone or something that means a lot to you." This is the point where she should have jumped in with "and that is what god has for us when he sent his son to the cross." She's a fundie, for sure.
"...that only love for God and God's love for us is what love truly means" That is very sad, though not unique, that a Christian can't feel love for anyone, even their own family-members. And telling you that your opinion is wrong, that only _their_ opinion is correct - that's day-1 fundamentalism.
The bibles definition of love for God is to obey the commandments - 1 john5:3 - how bland a way of showing love is that ? When I love someone I have a deep respect and sympathy and caring affection for them - that’s my idea of love and when I feel love from someone I should feel the same in return not just to obey the rules I give them and how are we to really love a being who doesn’t reveal themselves personally to you anyways ? Whom you’ve never met and only know about based on some ancient book ? It’s like having a father who was just responsible for giving birth to you and left when you were born and your mother just tells you about him and what he was like - do you love him for just being your father ? No? Because he wasn’t there and didn’t care or show you live when you were growing up - so then isn’t it the same with God - how can you love something /someone you’ve never felt or heard apart from in the writings of some book written thousands of years ago which you can’t even be sure is true ?
@paulnicolas172 ,. God isn't human he's your creator,you know made you. You can't think about him like anything you know. But I also understand how you feel when you say absentee father . He left and left us a book on how to treat each other. God gives you salvation you can't earn it. He also tells you that he judges your heart. So nonof us are worthy but he picks sinners and shows them how to treat others. Humble, don't react. Give love for hate. As for vengeance well there is those who love his creation but those who rule us are stuck here and can't leave and they hate that we can . They invert everything of God . Satan comes as an angel of light and probably very soon. He needs chaos to fix it and pretend to be God. Our elites worship that and want you to too so you loves your free gift of salvation. Anyway I'm tired and hungry S I just got home from the gym. I hope you have a great weekend . If you respond I would love to have a respectable talk between 2 humans. God bless you and you family and friends😊
I started as a youth minister and deconstructed 12+ years ago. I have been viewing atheist content for 10 of those years now, and this is one of the most well put-together and effective arguments I've ever heard. Extremely well done and you've got a new fan! The train of logic flowed perfectly, backed up its criticisms with scripture, and ended with a fantastic point about whether God not being love makes more sense than him being a work of fiction.
That's because you started as a "minister." I'm curious as to which religion as I highly, highly doubt you just spoke the word of God. Either way, the point is that you don't have a title. We don't have titles. We are just children of God. Not minister, Bishop, pastor, preacher, pope, or any of this other garbage that people have come to believe as lies.
1. The bible proves evolution by the way god evolves through it. 2. Most abusers will say their violence is acts of love. They confuse love and power. The god of the bible uses the typical justifications of an abuser.
useing mathematics (it's one of the 4 branches of science) there is a good argument with evidence I can use to prove God exist. There are Physicist that have done math to show the likely hood of our universe happening "by chance" and they counted every variable for it. One stated that for life to come from nothing (which violates the biological law that life can only come from other life), nothing being molecules accidently arranged them selves to make the first DNA to mindless form into the first living cell is comparable to a tornado going into a scrap metal yard and building a passenger airplane by chance. The math showed there is a 10^40,000 in 1 Chance of that happening though natural process. To put that into perspective, if you could speak 32 Zeros in 6 seconds it would take you 4 hours to say that whole number. And it would take about 38 pieces of paper to write out the full number as well. I can't believe something that has that small of a number behind it. It would be illogical for me to believe that the universe "accidentally" was created from a huge unorganized explosion (Big bang theory, nothing created everything) made laws of physics that line up for life to exist in the first place. (Protons neutrons and electrons having the ability to even combine together to make Anything in the universe including life forms, and there's no logic or thought behind something so complect and complicated happended by a mere 10^40'000 in one chance. So by the creation of the universe it's self, and seeing how wonderful and good it was created, It would be more illogical to Believe nothing caused it. In a way, believing something like that is it own fairy tail. It's just more intellectual.
One episode should have been included: Ezekiel 24:15-16. God killed a wife that was loved by her husband just to illustrate a point he wanted to make. And even worse: Ezekiel was forbidden to mourn about it. It's insane.

I grew up going to church every time the doors were opened. I knew all the stories like Noah and the Ark. But it wasn't until my early 20s, when I decided I wanted to read the Bible front to back so I would know what was/wasn't in there, that I started seeing things as they actually were. When I got to the part about Noah it was the first time that it had really, truly occurred to me how horrendous this was. And that was the beginning of me going from a firm believer to being agnostic, leaning atheist. I never did finish reading after that. It made me too sad and too angry. It took me a bit to get to the point where I realized that these were just stories and not things that actually happened and that there really was no god. Once I came to that realization my life was a lot better.
I made the mistake of going back after 10 years out of the church. I'm never going back again. My parents LOVE the fear mongering gaslighting angle. As if my life wasn't miserable enough when I decided I was through with God's fan club the first time. The second time was the clencher. You know what they say. Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice...
Here's a thing, it's relevant to what describes being an atheist best. "...There was for me no master in all the wide world -- not even in infinite space. I was free -- free to think, to express my thoughts -- free to live to my own ideal -- free to live for myself and those I loved..." Robert green ingersoll There's more and it's really good.

And it would take about 38 pieces of paper to write out the full number as well. I can't believe something that has that small of a number behind it. It would be illogical for me to believe that the universe "accidentally" was created from a huge unorganized explosion (Big bang theory, nothing created everything) made laws of physics that line up for life to exist in the first place. (Protons neutrons and electrons having the ability to even combine together to make Anything in the universe including life forms, and there's no logic or thought behind something so complect and complicated happended by a mere 10^40'000 in one chance. So by the creation of the universe it's self, and seeing how wonderful and good it was created, It would be more illogical to Believe nothing caused it. In a way, believing something like that is it own fairy tail. It's just more intellectual.
I have a Bible journal on my Goodnotes app that I add many of Kristi’s points on to use as future references. Best Bible study I ever do…thanks, Kristi! 😂
I'm sorry but Kristi is either angry about something she discovered, shocked by it, disappointed, or incapable of accepting it. Her videos rely upon false translations of scripture. She routinely denies taking the responsibility to investigate properly, offering the excuse that things should be simple. Unfortunately, they're not, and this because of the enemy, who consistently twists scripture (offering the world modern translations) in order to discredit it. No contradictions exist in the original text. I don't really have the time to go through and correct Kristi on every video, but I will drop in occasionally to cover what needs covering. Concentrate of the KJV (1611 if necessary, realizing that in one two places better translated words could be employed), and use Bible Dictionaries or Concordances. Of course, this is if you care enough to want to be right.
@@artstation707 I think it should be simple too. Its like going through a maze, minefield, climbing a rope, wade through quicksand then once out there is a cold shower waiting for you🫤. Lots of mental gymnastics and confusion.
So well thought out Kristi. Even after being deconverted for 20 yrs. I learn from your videos. This one hit me like a ton of bricks. Nailed it! Mark in Michigan
This is one of your best videos and it's absurd how few people have watched it. It deserves at least 75k views. I can only surmise that something has gone wrong with the TH-cam algorithm.
I agree w/ you Kristi completely. Religion only seems “right” or sounds “right” if you accept it w/out thinking. Religion is highly susceptible to the slightest analysis, then it crumbles like the ashes of a burnt piece of paper. Love you vlogs. Don’t stop.
It was revealed to me that it is for the ongoing War between Good and Evil. Hell and Heaven are testing the souls of mortals to see whether or not they are able to be tempted to do commit sins to benefit Hell, or to resist and become a spirit in Heaven and fight Evil in some way in the afterlife
@@RetiredAccount3737 Just in case you weren't joking: Satan is a made up character (originally it was just a title, and was also applied to humans, the character was expanded on by early christians who had a childish problem with god being responsible for evil, even though the OT has a few verses that make it clear that its gods ARE responsible for evil), however, IF I believed in such childish nonsense, I would easily believe that the torah, bible and qur'an were from Satan. Think about it; *what kind of character wants to be worshipped? A mature, secure, holy, calm, caring, godlike character, or an insecure, immature, narcissistic, sadistic, petty character?* *What kind of character is so illogical and immoral as to base saving people on their beliefs, rather than what kind of people they actually are, and, in many of these belief systems, is supposed to torture unbelievers for eternity? All round these "gods" sound pretty Satanic to me.* IF I believed in Satan, I would believe that you've ALL been conned by him, rather than being conned by sneaky, corrupt humans, which is the case. Seriously, though, *what makes you religious people so ARROGANT that you are all are so convinced that you couldn't be fooled by a multi-millennia old Uber-Angel?* In "The Usual Suspects" there's the line, "the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist", but, IF he did exist, *then what greater trick than to convince the world to worship him as "god", and build temples, synagogues, cathedrals and mosques to his “glory”???* I've known some pretty sick, evil, but intelligent people, and they get a kick out of telling others what they are, and others still liking them. The abrahamic gods are portrayed as the most evil characters and you STILL claim to believe that they are the origin of all that is good, that they *personify good,* maybe it's time for you to take a much closer look at the bible? Some of the Gnostics go further, and may have got it right, when they said that the creator of this Universe was an idiot god!
I'm really struggling with my relationship with God . I'm terrified of hell but reading the Bible as a girl, I can't commit myself to something that oppresses women and encourages violence.
Think of it like this: you’re only want to stay in this relationship because you fear of being tortured if you don’t. Only he has the power to send you there, not you. Is that loving?
@@Gringo7213 another reason on how Christianity is a hypocritical religion that stole from pagan religions while also demonizing these said pagan religions.
If God is omniscient, then how does he get angry over something that he already knew was going to happen way before it happened? Damn God, self control bro, self control. Count to 10 trillion or something.
Really appreciating these videos. I worked out at a cerebral level that the bible is mythology a long time ago, but it's amazing how much the emotional aspects of your childhood indoctrination stay with you (ironically, I think this is especially true if one's parents are nice, well-meaning people who teach you this stuff in a loving way). You are doing a great job of unpicking all this!
If I read the Bible as an adult that was not brought up in Christianity I do not believe I would spend this much time and effort trying to figure it out. I think I would probably give it as much thought as I do all the other religions in the world. The tendrils of indoctrination as a child run deep.
When she says "Haughty" it sounds a LOT like she's saying "Hottie!" It took me a few moments to work out why she was trying to read a bible passage about a "Hottie"... Moving on, God's threat to make women bald is piss-weak!! Some women look OVERPOWERINGLY HOT with their heads shaved!!
Without the Bible, evil people would do evil, good people would do good. But for good people to do evil, it takes religion. Another fantastic transmission.👍 Peace joy and love to all.❤❤❤
You put the Bible in an incredible place of power. You don’t think that other ideologies convince good people to do evil? Like National Socialism? Communism? Greed???

I got some for you: Does God create evil? I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things. Isaiah 45:7 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. Psalm 5:4 Who owns the Earth? The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Psalm 24:1 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Matthew 4:8-9 (Seems like Satan owns the Earth if he's offering it). The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.

I could cry listening to this. You’ve said everything that I’ve been thinking but too afraid to say in fear of backlash. If god is real, he has never done anything good for me. god allows suffering, he thrives off of it.
Really? The mere fact that you are alive, clear headed with your faculties is a good enough gift from God. Have you ever tried bowing your heart to God and actually seeking (in humbleness) that He help you to experience His love. I truly mean this....not trying to be condescending. He says that He will comfort those who seek Him in earnest. But He will not pay attention to the proud and unbelieving people. Try Him really.
Now, I've seen some good blessings come along... I'll have to admit this. Yet how do we know this is from him or just luck. Anywho, something about Jesus doesnt for right, if he is love and ALL POWERFUL.
You break things down that are difficult for apologist to defend. Your common sense approach is refreshing and is easy to remember and has merit. I grew up in church and when I decided to read the Bible I was in shock and felt betrayed knowing so much of the Bible is not read or preached on. The sermons are from cherry picked verses and stories I know are not true. So much of the Bible is just evil and I really don't know how the clergy can actually preach without feeling ashamed for deceiving people. Glad I found you and thanks for another great video.
@@kaylandry3142 I seem to be doing a pretty good job of deconstructing her arguments for the deconstruction of Christianity so far, is there one you would like to put to me?
@@skyeprophet3564you really aren’t though. Why so prideful? That’s not a Christian attribute and yet you pride yourself of proving her wrong. Is that really what your Bible says you should be doing?

"there is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear" BUT "work out your salvation with fear and trembling" ALSO "god is not the author of confusion" were just a few verses that stuck out to me when deconstructing my faith.
Fundamentalists “love” out of fear and obedience . The “love” they feel is the emotional attachment associated to family, tradition , get-togethers , community , friendly church experience , activities , fun and laughter etc all with in the context of Christianity. But they FEAR yaweh . Otherwise they wouldn’t be afraid to question The almighty , all jealous , wrathful , avenging , capricious, sometimes loving sometimes kind Yaweh wants you to believe in him, love him and worship him ….or ELSE! Imagine a parent like that to a small child : “ love me or go live on the street !” Yaweh also dishonors women . They are only 2/3 of a man 🙄
Of course they fear him, the real fundies love telling you how awful, horrible, undeserving of even breathing air, but if you kiss gods ass he'll love you

The God of the Bible reflects the behavior of a Bronze-age tribal Chieftan: He demands to be worshipped, all must bow before him, he quickly angers at any show of disobedience, he inflicts punishments on any who question him. He is unaccountable to anyone. That Biblical God is the product of a primitive, unsophisticated ancient tribe.
I grew up with a Babtist family . We went every Sunday . I was never Babtised because I had too many questions that were never answered . A kid laying in bed thinking too much..lol
The last thing religions want is for people to ask questions. LOL. Meanwhile in science, they encourage you to question everything. Gee, I wonder who's more trustworthy. 🤔
The answers are genuinely in the bible but they all point to god either being a lying, deeply spiteful being that suppresses all other gods through deceit, or that the bible is just a tool that men from the time of paul made (out of religious scrap of the time) to absorb and suppress all other forms of religion
You ABSOLUTELY need to make this a power point presentation. It is unreal. Thank you very much for the breakdown and analysis. We recently had the love is patient verse in our room since our wedding. Ive hated always. Thank you for this.
I went through the entire old testament looking for God's love and found nothing but hate, wraith, envy, and pride. ....I can't blame Satan for rebelling against that God
Then you didn't read the Old Testament, for one of the great declarations of God's love is found there, declaring that "God is slow to anger and of great mercy." You only want to see what you want to see, and find what you want to find. It's like being in a flower garden and only seeing dung.
This is not Funny at all. God Is love.. He patient, kind, he is not quick to get angry, he is not boastful and all the Characteristics.. He loves everyone So do not mock him He created you, show great respect because you didn't create yourself
Kristi, absolutely love your approach! Listening to you deconstruct Christianity with its own words is just too much fun. Love the "...or he doesn't exist." mic drop at the end!
Kristi's understanding is limited. She's ignorant. Translation of ancient Hebrew to modern English (or Polish) is arbitrary. This means a word here or a word there changes the meaning or complexion of an original statement. So your mic drop shouldn't be voluntary. Go back to the drawing board and study properly!
@@checkfactschecking No. I'm saying modern translations cannot be trusted. Try to remember. Unless you access the original Hebrew text, you're at the mercy of translators. Fortunately, original Hebrew renditions do still exist. They're called Interlinear Bibles, and they offer the original languages alongside the modern translations. Another way to do this: E-Sword, a free electronic Bible application which allows you to compare different translations of scripture, including the KJV from 1611, and also a KJV with concordance numbers referring to bible dictionaries which offer several meanings for many words. Hundreds of translations can be downloaded as modules. It is a great source of information.
I was around 5 years old when I first started questioning God's "lovingness." I was a child in the 1950s and it was common during that time for parents to "shame" their kids if they did not want to eat their meals. The common phrase was "there are STARVING children in -Africa, India etc etc that would LOVE to eat that food that YOU are WASTING !" That NEVER phased my sibblings or any other kids that I knew but in my case, I'd walk around feeling guilty all day because I still did NOT want to eat the foods that I didn't like. But one day I also started thinking "what's WRONG with this picture?! What did I DO to be born as a middle class white child in suburban USA , INSTEAD of a starving kid in one of the 3rd world countries!? WHAT makes ME so much BETTER that I have abundance while THEY do not!? And even at age 5 there was NO answer that would indicate that "God" was an all LOVING or even a FAIR deity!
I was born in 1956, and I can confirm that parents did indeed use the "there are starving children in. . ." shtick. With my parents it was "starving children in China." Go figure. I always wondered how whether I ate my peas or not made any difference to a starving kid anywhere, but didn't dare say a thing. . .
@@knarf_on_a_bike wow, that is pretty fascinating. Are you from the u.s.? What were race relations like during those times in your perspective? I’m sorry for these random questions, I’m just intrigued.
Why should I worship a God that doesn’t do anything for me? If God is jealous then, he should just give me what I want. Then I wouldn’t of had to worship other Gods.
Remember...the bible is the supposed "inerrant word of god" which of course houses the old testament...*but its still in their bible* even when I was younger..the OT god gave me some serious chills. This god is supposedly "all knowing"...yada yada. But the actions of a "loving god" obviously told quite the polar opposite.
It has always been mildly amusing to me that the supposed all-knowing God of the Bible starts out in Genesis 1 by demonstrating that he hasn't got a clue how the earth and the humans came to be. So much for YHWH as the Creator God.
@@LarsPallesen 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍and also mentions somewhere later in the bible that he grieved making humans... that sounds like epic defeat for an "all powerful god"
When Christians get backed into a corner, they love to pull out the "God can do whatever He wants because He's God" card, but that means He could save every man woman and child without killing His son and a whole bunch of innocent animals. Therefore, the God of the Bible must have really wanted to kill his son and a whole bunch of innocent animals. Appalling.
I swear my family and old church use this excuse every time. It’s so frustrating because at that point God has no accountability ever just us. It’s do as I say not as I do because I’m better than you. It’s mind boggling
You don't get it. If you don't trust and have faith in your spouse, your marriage is ended. If you don't have faith in your surgeon, the procedure is cancelled. If your child rejects you as a parent, you've lost that sacred connection. In God's eyes, there is nothing good or righteous about mankind. We just don't cut it. We're very flawed and crude. A man's faith and trust is the only offering acceptable to God as righteous. Good deeds come and go like good weather. Tested faith is like hard currency in the hand. God chose faith as pre-eminent in mankind. It's more workable and emphasises relationship which is his intended purpose! Like any marriage, not everyone is faithful and there are degrees of being faithful. The nature of faith, like anything of value, is that it has to be tested and proven. Abraham was therefore accredited with righteousness because he had passed the test of faith. Therefore a relationship between God and his spiritual descendants came into existence. In return, God showing his faithfulness and love, sacrificed his son in actuality to redeem Abraham's spiritual descendants through his only son Jesus Christ. This is an extremely emotional and poignant moment for God. Everyone must understand sin can only be reconciled this way and can only be scrubbed out this way. Sin brings death. You must join the dots. Capiche?
Why? I don't believe in God either but I think people should be allowed to believe in what they want. We get one life and if worshipping a God is what makes some people feel complete or like they have a purpose in this life then why stop them. Everyone deserves happiness and fulfillment ❤

That’s a very cruel and caring God. He clearly knew what was going to happen before he created everything.

What is the worth, value, and importance of the BIBLE to imperfect, suffering, and dying human beings, is it the Word of God and source of Truths or just a worthless book of lies, myths, fictions, fantasies, and fairy tales? ANSWER - The BIBLE simply reveals and exposes that - 1. the Creator is the True and Sovereign God as written in Matthew 22: 37 and John 17: 3 2. Jesus Christ is the One given by the Creator all authority in heaven and on earth as written in Matthew 28: 18 3. Satan the Devil is a Liar, the Father of Lies and Murderer of Human beings as written in John 8: 44 Who on earth are the SLAVES and SERVANTS of Satan the Devil? ANSWER - The Bible simply exposes that all Jehovah's Witnesses, SDAs, Mormons, Baptists, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Atheists, Agnostics, Evolutionists, and fanatics of all kinds of Religions who trick and deceive their own families, friends, and neighbors to mock, oppose, and defy what were written in Matthew 22: 37 and John 17: 3 are obviously NOT the worshippers of the Creator but Satan the Devil's servants and slaves on earth who don't respect and value their own lives, dignities, and existence.... not bothered at all and just don't care even if their Satanic hatred, mockeries, opposition, and defiance of the Creator's Will and Sovereignty bring and cause their own dishonor, disgrace, downfall and ETERNAL DEATHS, just worthless and useless dusts on earth forever. Who on earth are the FALSE TEACHERS and ENEMIES of JESUS CHRIST? ANSWER - The Bible simply exposes that all Jehovah's Witnesses, SDAs, Mormons, Baptists, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Atheists, Agnostics, Evolutionists, and fanatics of all kinds of Religions who trick and deceive their own families, friends, and neighbors to reject what were written in Ecclesiastes 3: 19, 20 and 9: 5, 6 that all human beings have no immortal souls and will just become worthless and useless dusts on earth after their deaths just like the animals and believe instead their lies, falsehoods, and Unbiblical teachings and doctrines about "immortality of the souls or the heaven and hellfire doctrine", "Armageddon", "Trinity", "rapture", and "reincarnation" are obviously the liars, deceivers, FALSE TEACHERS and ENEMIES of JESUS CHRIST on earth who don't respect and value their own families, friends, and neighbors.... not bothered at all and just don't care even if their lies, deceptions, hypocrisies, cruelties, false teachings and doctrines hurt, offend, insult, humiliate, and degrade the lives and dignities of their own families, friends, and neighbors and cause their sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and DEATHS. Who on earth are the WORSHIPPERS of the CREATOR and FOLLOWERS of JESUS CHRIST? ANSWER - The Bible simply reveals that all lowly, ordinary, kind, and submissive persons on earth who submit to the authority of Jesus Christ and believe his teachings about the "Kingdom of God" and "Resurrection of the Dead" in obedience to what were written in Matthew 28: 18, Luke 4: 43, and John 11: 25, 26 are clearly the WORSHIPPERS of the CREATOR and FOLLOWERS of JESUS CHRIST on earth who are definitely bringing upon themselves the loving, kind, and merciful Creator's favor and reward of ETERNAL LIFE and existence without sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and death on a safe, secure, and peaceful earth without arrogant, cruel, and merciless persons, without liars, slanderers, hypocrites, deceivers, traitors, and murderers as written in Revelation 21: 3, 4, and 8. The Bible simply reveals that all human beings have no immortal souls and will just become worthless and useless dusts on earth after their deaths just like the animals as written in Ecclesiastes 3: 19, 20 and 9: 5, 6 but all the loving, kind, respectful, and submissive worshippers of the Creator and followers of Jesus Christ who died recently and thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Job, Naomi, Ruth, King David, Mary, Martha, Lazarus, and many others will not remain as worthless and useless dusts on earth forever, instead, in the Creator's own right time and as written in John 11: 25, 26, Jesus Christ will RESURRECT them back to life so they can all happily and abundantly live and exist on earth forever as submissive and obedient subjects of the "KINGDOM of GOD" and fully enjoy the eternal love, kindness, goodness, compassions, generosities, favors, and blessings of the Creator and his Christ for eternity under the loving and kind rulership, guidance, and protection of Jesus Christ as the Creator's Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth as written in Revelation 11: 15.

Needless to say I got in trouble for my questions and views. By the time I was about 8 years old I had concluded what I was being told and taught was false for various reasons. So much so my entire family decided to not to attend church because of me. After military service, I attended college and became a psychologist, giving me so much more of understanding.

I am married to a wonderful woman who is a recovering Catholic who has embraced evangelical Christianity . I am tired of hiding. Keep up the good work!
This is a really good perspective when reading and trying to understand the bible. If one only reads 1 Corinthians 13 by itself, you get this 'Macro' picture on love and we can get teary eyed and emotional. When you read these passages in relation to the bible as Kristi is pointing out. You get a 'Panorama' view of the meaning, and another picture emerges. The biblical God is not so loving after all. I would have never thought of this till Kristi pointed this out. Come to think of it, the biblical God is a lot like man. A manmade God. Thank you Kristi for opening our view on the bible. I'm beginning to see clearly every day.

There are plenty of people who follow other gods or no god at all whom dedicate their lives to be helping others and are not self centered. These people are not corrupt. This god's "justice" is obey without question or else suffer a horrible punishment. That is not justice nor holy nor righteous.

Great video. In the instance of pride is when it takes the firm of arrogance. This is on full display at the beginning of Job. The Satan was minding his business when it was this God that brought up Job, then made the bet.
I've only listened to the first two minutes and I can tell this is going to be an excellent video - I can definitely relate to the points you've made so far. 👌
The 1st liar in the Bible was the character named God. He lied by telling Adam that he would surely die on the day he ate of the forbidden fruit. The serpent told Eve the truth. Maybe this all-knowing god should know not to put a couple of forbidden trees in the middle of a garden with people who don't know right from wrong yet, and a talking serpent that they will actually listen to instead of running away from it scared sh*tless since a serpent can't talk. It is like a parent putting a baby in a crib with a loaded gun, telling the baby not to use the gun, and then putting their sibling in the room to show them how to use it. Whose fault is that when they get shot?!?!?
Yes, yes and yes (to everything you said). Excellent video, Kristi. We moved around a lot when I was in school and I had to learn Welsh, Latin, Zulu and Afrikaans. For that reason alone, I cannot forgive God (for confusing the tower-builders and causing them to scatter).
The authors of the bible (people, not a God)had a #1 priority to maintain their control of the people with the philosophy they created. When you realize this, it all makes sense.

I definitely believed God was love until I was 48 years old. However, I wasn't raised in church and didn't read the bible until I was 48. I was in shock at what I read and discovered.
Love is a spontaneous feeling of happiness and caring toward the beloved. God does not love his creations. In fact he is sorry he made mankind. From his sting operation against Adam and Eve to his simulated death on the cross to save humanity for the sins he allowed them to commit against him it's been a bad relationship from the beginning, full of anger, jealousy, narcissism, false promises, eternal torture and damnation never mind disease, starvation, birth defects, and agonizing death. Whoever calls this love is not reading the Bible.
With that description... I'd rather chill with Lucifer/Satan Seems like they have far better love than the Christian god I was indoctrinated to believe
If God is omniscient, there is nothing it can hope for. God does not hope. God is eternal. There's no perseverance in eternity. God does not persevere. So the god doesn't get any points for those either. Great video Kristi!❤

There have been some early gnostic christian thinkers who read these obvious contradictions and concluded the father of jesus could not be the god of the old testament.
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
@@artstation707 You guys really are brainwashed defenders of Hebrew fiction aren't you? --------------------------------------------------------- *This website is designed to spread the vicious truth about the Bible. For far too long priests and preachers have completely ignored the vicious criminal acts that the Bible promotes. The so called God of the Bible makes Osama Bin Laden look like a Boy Scout. This God, according to the Bible, is directly responsible for many mass-murders, rapes, pillage, plunder, slavery, child abuse and killing, not to mention the killing of unborn children.* I have included references to the Biblical passages, so grab your Bible and follow along. *It always amazes me how many times this God orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said Thou shall not kill.* For example, God kills 70,000 innocent people because David ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21). God also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the Israelites can live there. He orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of all of value (Deuteronomy 3). He orders another attack and the killing of all the living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and asses (Joshua 6). In Judges 21 He orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and married. When they wanted more virgins, God told them to hide alongside the road and when they saw a girl they liked, kidnap her and forcibly rape her and make her your wife! *Just about every other page in the Old Testament has God killing somebody!* In 2 Kings 10:18-27, God orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their very own church! In total God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered The God of the Bible also allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 & Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9). ***This type of criminal behavior should shock any moral person.*** ***Murder, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, and child abuse can not be justified by saying that some god says it’s OK.*** If more people would actually sit down and read the Bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself. *Jesus also promoted the idea that all men should castrate themselves to go to heaven:* For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it (Matthew 19:12). *I don’t know why anyone would follow the teachings of someone who literally tells all men to cut off their privates.* The God of the Bible also was a big fan of ritual human sacrifice and animal sacrifice. *And just in case you are thinking that the evil and immoral laws of the Old Testament are no longer in effect, perhaps you should read where Jesus makes it perfectly clear:* It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid (Luke 16:17). There are many more quotes on this topic at my Do Not Ignore the Old Testament web page. *If you follow the links on this site you will learn about all the nasty things in the Bible that are usually not talked about by priests and preachers.* www.evilbible.com/ Watch *"Context!!!!!!"* by NonStampCollector (A good video for believers who try to rationalise Biblical atrocities and immorality by saying "Out of context".)
God is love means the Trinity is relationally complete in love. God the Father loves Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit loves the Father and loves the Son. It does not mean God = Love. It means that God has always loved the Godhead. How God relates to sinners is a different matter. God is not required to love evil persons - which is the summation of the fallen human race. Do you love Komodo dragons? Should you love them?
@@timothykeith1367makes sense what your saying but it also makes Gods selfish to create ppl just to destroy them.... Only a bad person would do such a manipulative action. Now we are calling God good because he's all powerful to do fucked up acts... SMH.
I love the part where god's chosen people were stuck going through the desert and they just mentioned that they were hungry and thirsty, so the god of love sent tons of venomous snakes to kill a bunch of them.
Yes, and that's why Jesus mentioned in Luke 11:11 “You fathers-if your children ask for a fish, do you give them a snake instead?" Jesus was referring to that very incident, where their father the devil, sent snakes among the Israelites cause they complained from a lack of food. John 8:44 "For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies."
@@morningglory9288wait so you're saying essentially that when Jesus refers to "God the Father," that he's referring to a different entity from Yaweh (from some of the passages like this in the OT?) (Genuine question)
@hannahb2383 yes exactly. Yahweh IS the devil. So many Christians automatically assume whenever Jesus prayed to his father, he was praying to this Yahweh, but they are so so misleaded. Actually the true God of divine love who Jesus did pray to and came to earth to represent was a feminine God entity. There's not much evidence in the bible to prove this, because Jehovah/Yahweh/Satan is a jealous God, who desires exclusive devotion. He inspired men to pen the bible in such a way so that he gets the recognition and glory that does not rightly belong to him. In Genesis 3:15 there the "woman" (or true God of divine love) was struck figuratively in her head. This is likened to a death blow, so all proof of her existence through historical records and manuscripts are lost or destroyed. In Genesis 1:31 it was this true God of divine love that was very happy with her creative works. At that point God was simply known as "God", no name just a title. It was not until Genesis 2:4 that Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD came on the scene. He was the male God entity that rebelled in heaven and was cast out down to the vicinity of the earth, along with ⅓ of the spirit beings who sided with him. Rev 12: 9 The whole account of Revelation chptr 12 speaks about the rebellion that took place in heaven between Yahweh/LORD/Satan and the woman or true God of divine love. If you want me to clarify this for you, I can. In Psalms 83:18 Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD is recognized as the highest over all the earth. In 1 John 5:19 Satan is said to be ruler over it. These two powerful spiritual beings are one and the same. Also compare 1 Chronicles 21:1 with 2 Samuel 24:1. There it speaks of the same account but one says Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD the other says Satan.
@@morningglory9288 The discourse you mention in John actually begins somewhat earlier, where Jesus gets into a dispute with the Pharisees at 8:13 . The people whom he calls "The children of your father the devil" are almost certainly them. True, Jesus talks to "the Jews who had believed in him" starting at 8:31. Is it they whom He goes on to call "children of the devil"? There are some inconsistences and obscurities regarding the adressees here. I'll opt for the Pharisees as "children of the devil, your father".
I can't understand why God couldn't have given Adam and Eve a second chance! Christian parents don't kick _their_ children out of the nice comfy home to live in the cold prickly garden, while cursing them to die, after those children disobeyed them for the very first time! And loving Christian parents would never condemn their own children to eternal torment under any circumstance! At least not the _sane_ ones!
In the garden at the East of Eden, when the psychopath in charge tell to the Adam " Do not eat the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, for in that day you will surely die" And the Adam lived 900 more years after that🤣 The best part is the serpent in the garden, the character who is identified as the king of the lie, is precisely the unic character who ain't lie at all😎🤘
Floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, malaria, smallpox, poilio, cholera, influenza, yellow fever, cancer, etc., all created by the "loving" god. This is the greatest paradox in human history; the belief that God is the ultimate in love, when, in fact, IF HE EXISTS, is the greatest monster humanity has ever encountered.
No, all of those things are the fault of capitalism. God made the world so that we could all live a happy and prosperous life. All of those things are the product of envy, wrath, vengeance, need, and greed.
Thank You for all the videos you have made it makes me really think about how I was conditioned as a child...so much did not make sense to me but was excused or not mentioned... please continue it helps us to see what the Bible actually says not what we were taught...
There is the bit where God lies to Adam about dying if he or Eve at the fruit of Knowledge definitely didn't rejoice in truth then.

In fact, the Bible itself it the best condemnation of Chritianity that there could possibly be. So many people have left the faith after examining the scriptures.
I agree with this. Reading the Bible is exactly why I left.

@@jezebelvibes I was raised in a moderate version of Christianity In Canadian United Church. Wasn't burdened with a whole lot of hell fear. I left the church as a teenager but still carried some residual sentimentality for the Bible.
But then in late 20's I read the Bible for myself. When I read the passage below it was as if the 'scales fell from my eyes'. I suddenly realized the Bible was written by power-obsessed men and not some merciful God.
After a military victory against the Midianites Moses is angry with his generals for returning with too many prisoners.
17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

I'm highly informed by evolutionary psychology and sociobiology. The lesson there is tribalism could very well be in our DNA.
If there is any any way forward it is with emergent evolution: more science, more reason, good governance, human rights, education. But the human psyche is still very susceptible to emotional overrides of the noecortex, the ancient fight or flight responses that served is well in the forest primeval but are a liability in the complex modern world.
Reading the Bible was the worst thing I could do for my faith. It's when I realized that the God I was being preached about is not at all the same as the one from the Bible and that's when I started to realize the fairy tale I was taught growing up was all fake. Great video!

In God's eyes, there is nothing good or righteous about mankind. We just don't cut it. We're very flawed and crude. A man's faith and trust is the only offering acceptable to God as righteous. Good deeds come and go like good weather. Tested faith is like hard currency in the hand. God chose faith as pre-eminent in mankind. It's more workable and emphasises relationship which is his intended purpose!
Like any marriage, not everyone is faithful and there are degrees of being faithful. The nature of faith, like anything of value, is that it has to be tested and proven.
Abraham was therefore accredited with righteousness because he had passed the test of faith. Therefore a relationship between God and his spiritual descendants came into existence. In return, God showing his faithfulness and love, sacrificed his son in actuality to redeem Abraham's spiritual descendants through his only son Jesus Christ. This is an extremely emotional and poignant moment for God.
Everyone must understand sin can only be reconciled this way and can only be scrubbed out this way. Sin brings death. Jesus Christ is the only way. You must join the dots. Capiche?
If god was really so wonderful and amazing, he wouldn't need to start the commandments with "you shall have no other gods before me." It would be self-evident. And it isn't.
It's like when guys say they're an alpha male. If you were truly alpha you wouldn't have to announce it it would be obvious through his actions.
Your reasoning is so flawed. Man needs laws because man is rebellious and ignorant. Wayward man loves to craft false idols. Fallen humanity does stupid things. In fact, we have all kinds of laws today to prevent people from doing stupid things. I imagine you've watched many glorious sunsets, or you've looked up at the myriads of stars in the sky, and failed to acknowledge that God made it all, attributing it all to mere time and chance. Yup, that's the stupidity and ignorance I'm talking about.
Thinking back at what I was taught, it's amazing how many excuses I accepted for God. Some of the reasons include (1) we cant judge God because we dont have enough information/we cant see the full picture, (2) it's ok for God to be prideful because he actually is the best, its only wrong for humans because we're not God, (3) things changed because of Jesus and the New Testament, so we dont really need to worry about the actions of the OG God (4) God knows what is best for us better than we do, so who are we to say that what seems bad to us might actually be helping us grow, (5) God had to do things this way because it was the only way for humans to have free will, (6) everything that happens to us doesnt really matter because God created us and without him we wouldnt even be here in the first place so how can we complain, (7) God and sin can't mix, by definition, so there's really no way for him to let people who rebel against him into heaven. And the list goes on
Then we have theChristians who continuously judge others without having any information about the person at all, much less the full picture 😂
@rboland2173 You lack understanding. The LAW existed to ensure the physical and mental well-being of God's people. The Messiah did not come to destroy this. Where is the contradiction? He encapsulated all of this law in two simple commandments. Where is the contradiction?
Try your best to understand this. There existed and exist phenomena in the world superfluous to original design. Are you telling me these should be allowed to persist, and if so without condition?
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

Yes !!!!
In my opinion Christianity is full of lies, but that “energy”, “laws of attraction” and all that new age spirituality stuff is nonsense too. You’ll probably be better off studying a greek philosophy, like Stoicism, for the best way to live your life.
That's pretty much where I ended up too, having read the bible as a teenager and seeing the glaring inconsistencies and cruelties in the book. For the next 40-odd years I identified as Pagan (mainly for reasons of ecology and environmentalism) but now refer to Spirit or Source, and no, I don't fully understand how the Universe works and I'm ok with that. The fault, in my view, is with the authors of the various ''holy'' books, and those who decided to use their writings as the ultimate means of controlling people. Whatever Source may be, I am certain that ''God'' had very little to do with the atrocities committed by a bunch of ignorant Bronze Age or Iron Age tribes, all residing in a relatively small area of the Middle East. Whatever they did, thought or said is irrelevant and should in no way be taken seriously.

How anyone can say God is love but also says "you're NOTHING without God, you don't even deserve the air you breathe. You are worthless and undeserving of God's love" but if you kiss his ass he'll "love" you
How unqualified. The Christian claim about God is that he is the author of all creation. So if he is, the very molecules of which you are composed are from God. What will you do without God? will you sustain your own life beyond the grave? It might be true that you don't even deserve the air you breathe, but God patiently provides you with air anyway. Doesn't sound like an evil and malicious God to me. It might be true that you are worthless and undeserving of God's love, but he chooses to send his own son to die for you on a cross. Doesn't sound like an evil and malicious God to me. You can live in your own self denial, justifying yourself and making out that "I don't deserve to go to Hell" but if you want to live apart from the God who gave you life, don't you even think you owe him anything for that existence. Sounds like a pretty entitled attitude to me. God doesn't make you "kiss his ass" in fact if you don't want to, you don't have to. I don't see you kissing his ass, though you exist and are enjoying a human life despite the wrong things you do. Oh, are you somehow perfect all of a sudden? Yes, I am generally a good person I hear you say. So because you think you are a good person, God should excuse all the bad things you do? Ok, God will allow you to believe that if you want to. He's not going to strike you down with a lightning bolt or anything like that. He will just patiently hold the door to his household open for you while your heart beats and while you draw breath hoping against hope that you will accept the smallest bit of humility and acknowledge your need for him. Patiently he will call to you through one person and then another, even though you will ignore his calls. Doesn't sound like an evil and malicious God to me. I think you have a poor perspective on God.
Sounds like a narcissistic relationship 😕

@@christophergibson7155 LOL you do know most of us treat your book like we treat lord of the rings books, difference is they're actually interesting. So threatening us with it does nothing. Calling me a sinner does nothing.
So he should love you if you hate him? Is this your argument? Because scripture says you should love your enemy. I wonder what more could possibly satisfy you. The truth is -- there exists things, creatures, and notions which should NOT exist. If this offends you, then you make clear on which side of the divide you happen to be.
The part where you said love keeps no record of wrongs but god literally kept all records of wrongs 😭😭😭 I never pointed this one out while deconstructing, this is so spot on
Also if jealousy is a sin then why does it say in the bible that God is a jealous God???
It doesn't make any sense
I know right
There's a difference between us and God, we have a different standard.
Christianity is the only religion where God loved you enough to come down to this wrenched Earth (Jesus) and lived a perfect sinless life and died on the cross for our sins so instead of us having to pay a punishment four our sins, we can ask God for forgiveness of our sins and go to heaven.
Also something else the video did not mention, in Christianity salvation is not earned, it is given as a gift.
Titus 3:5 (KJV)
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us.
God gives us mercy when we ask for it, God paid for our sin debt that separates us from him and heaven
Romans 6:23 (KJV) For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 10:10 (KJV) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 10:13 (KJV) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
If you say this prayer in your heart "Lord Jesus, I know I'm a sinner and I don't deserve heaven. You died and rose from the dead for me. Please forgive me for my sins and take me to heaven when I die. thank you! AMEN.
You turn become a Christan and become one of God's children and have everlasting life. Because God loved us first and showed it we love him as a result. That's how someone becomes a Christian.
That's the main difference between Christianity from Judaism and Islam.
Some are forgiven - some are not forgiven by God. There are consequences for ignoring God.
They always ignore the passage that says that " I am a vengeful god.''
mhm
You also forget that Vengeance is Justice and God is an Ever loving Judge, if your child stole from a store and you where the Judge it would be bias to let them go without a bail, Jesus is that bail.

Yes. They FOLLOW YWH, SPAWN COMMANDS. MIGHT MAKES RIGHT. YWH, SPAWN COMMANDS it's MORAL and RIGHT. Weird how they don't obey so much of the COMAMANDS. How many are EUNUCHS. I love to EXPOSE YWH, SPAWN and you know how many NASTY NAMES I get CALLED. ALL I do is write what is in their UNHOLY BOOK. Oh they hate that.
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
God showed people his love for us by giving us a free way to heaven. I will continue to be a Christian and continue to love ane forgive others for faults. And that's not hateful in any way

@@krembryle Brother, just like the fear of hell and bible god, I have to choose my words carefully for I've been warned. But I tell ya "christopath" is a good one.
It’s so hard following religion. Being a gay male is painful because the man that created me strongly hates the fact that I love a man that loves me and my Christian family condemns me because I don’t look like them. I don’t want to go to hell just for loving my partner. Why is that so evil?
if you follow religion you will never be satsified. You need to follow Christ alone, away from church. Find a bunch of bible believers and walk with them.
Has no one ever told you that you were born with a sinful nature. As a consequence of that sinful nature you commit sins. That sinful nature has brought death upon your soul. There is NO DIFFERENCE for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. That is why God sent His Son to die for you and me. He took our sins upon Himself, and God made Him the sin offering for us. Being gay is not your problem, it is the fact that you are condemned already from your sinful nature. Fornication, adultery, lustfulness, being a paedophile, etc. all sexual sins, are just the same as being a practising homosexual, so don't let that put you off Christianity. Christ died FOR YOU. Put you faith/trust in Him. He will forgive your sins and give you the power to walk before Him in a manner which glorifies Him. Let the Lord deal with your problem, you will be a new creation in Christ Jesus, and you will be amazed what He can do in your life if you let Him.
Kristi thank you for having the patience to try to reach people with reason. I read the comments here and it is amazing how people will come up with all matter of convoluted rationalizations to avoid facing plain truth. It’s tragic how brainwashed they are. There must be so much fear in their hearts, clinging to these silly fables terrified of the consequences of walking away. Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery.

The issue with this, is this God is REAL and I believe in him but also, like Kristi....I question God regardless of my faith in him. I'm a Christian who genuinely does not agree with Jesus A LOT. Unfortunately I died once and he is real, so my testimony says alot for me, yet I do question him

Rest assured, Ahura Mazda does not set you up to fail. They expect only Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Deeds. They don't want your sacrifices. They don't want your flattery.
All you have to do is trust in Jesus Christ. That He died for your sins and rose again. That He is the Saviour of your soul. Why do you reject Gods mercy and grace? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Your conscience will never stop bothering you because it is true that there will be judgement for sin and that God is holy. You know you are a sinner. That’s why you run from God. There is a way out of judgement and that’s through Jesus Christ alone.

I had a friend a few years ago who asked me what I thought "love" meant.
With her word choice on phrasing her question, I told her my personal definition in a brief description. I said it's when you feel unconditional compassion and care for someone or something that means a lot to you.
She then outright tells me that I was completely wrong with this tone as if I'd just described torture to her. Then she describes that only love for God and God's love for us is what love truly means and any other definition wasn't true. Basically, if God isn't involved, then it's not love.
She's a cult-level Christian, so I wasn't too surprised with her response. If anything, more annoyed that my answer was invalidated when she asked for it. I think she was only looking for a chance to talk about religion since she's the type that won't even blink if she thought it'd be a sin!
I'm not in contact with her anymore, but I so wish I could've rebutted her with this video. lol
" I said it's when you feel unconditional compassion and care for someone or something that means a lot to you."
This is the point where she should have jumped in with "and that is what god has for us when he sent his son to the cross." She's a fundie, for sure.
"...that only love for God and God's love for us is what love truly means"
That is very sad, though not unique, that a Christian can't feel love for anyone, even their own family-members. And telling you that your opinion is wrong, that only _their_ opinion is correct - that's day-1 fundamentalism.
The bibles definition of love for God is to obey the commandments - 1 john5:3 - how bland a way of showing love is that ? When I love someone I have a deep respect and sympathy and caring affection for them - that’s my idea of love and when I feel love from someone I should feel the same in return not just to obey the rules I give them and how are we to really love a being who doesn’t reveal themselves personally to you anyways ? Whom you’ve never met and only know about based on some ancient book ? It’s like having a father who was just responsible for giving birth to you and left when you were born and your mother just tells you about him and what he was like - do you love him for just being your father ? No? Because he wasn’t there and didn’t care or show you live when you were growing up - so then isn’t it the same with God - how can you love something /someone you’ve never felt or heard apart from in the writings of some book written thousands of years ago which you can’t even be sure is true ?
You don't sound like a friend you sound like a back stabbing gossip.
@paulnicolas172 ,. God isn't human he's your creator,you know made you. You can't think about him like anything you know. But I also understand how you feel when you say absentee father . He left and left us a book on how to treat each other. God gives you salvation you can't earn it. He also tells you that he judges your heart. So nonof us are worthy but he picks sinners and shows them how to treat others. Humble, don't react. Give love for hate. As for vengeance well there is those who love his creation but those who rule us are stuck here and can't leave and they hate that we can . They invert everything of God . Satan comes as an angel of light and probably very soon. He needs chaos to fix it and pretend to be God. Our elites worship that and want you to too so you loves your free gift of salvation. Anyway I'm tired and hungry S I just got home from the gym. I hope you have a great weekend . If you respond I would love to have a respectable talk between 2 humans. God bless you and you family and friends😊

I started as a youth minister and deconstructed 12+ years ago. I have been viewing atheist content for 10 of those years now, and this is one of the most well put-together and effective arguments I've ever heard. Extremely well done and you've got a new fan! The train of logic flowed perfectly, backed up its criticisms with scripture, and ended with a fantastic point about whether God not being love makes more sense than him being a work of fiction.
Well done you for freeing yourself! Greetings from a Brit in France.
Thanks so much for the words of support ❤😊
So hard to find good atheist content. 😂❤
That's because you started as a "minister." I'm curious as to which religion as I highly, highly doubt you just spoke the word of God. Either way, the point is that you don't have a title. We don't have titles. We are just children of God. Not minister, Bishop, pastor, preacher, pope, or any of this other garbage that people have come to believe as lies.

1. The bible proves evolution by the way god evolves through it.
2. Most abusers will say their violence is acts of love. They confuse love and power. The god of the bible uses the typical justifications of an abuser.
useing mathematics (it's one of the 4 branches of science) there is a good argument with evidence I can use to prove God exist. There are Physicist that have done math to show the likely hood of our universe happening "by chance" and they counted every variable for it. One stated that for life to come from nothing (which violates the biological law that life can only come from other life), nothing being molecules accidently arranged them selves to make the first DNA to mindless form into the first living cell is comparable to a tornado going into a scrap metal yard and building a passenger airplane by chance.
The math showed there is a 10^40,000 in 1 Chance of that happening though natural process.
To put that into perspective, if you could speak 32 Zeros in 6 seconds it would take you 4 hours to say that whole number. And it would take about 38 pieces of paper to write out the full number as well.

Slaying of the firstborn of everyone in Egypt is not love, it's an absolutely heinous and unforgivable act of genocide.
I grew up going to church every time the doors were opened. I knew all the stories like Noah and the Ark. But it wasn't until my early 20s, when I decided I wanted to read the Bible front to back so I would know what was/wasn't in there, that I started seeing things as they actually were. When I got to the part about Noah it was the first time that it had really, truly occurred to me how horrendous this was. And that was the beginning of me going from a firm believer to being agnostic, leaning atheist. I never did finish reading after that. It made me too sad and too angry. It took me a bit to get to the point where I realized that these were just stories and not things that actually happened and that there really was no god. Once I came to that realization my life was a lot better.
I made the mistake of going back after 10 years out of the church. I'm never going back again. My parents LOVE the fear mongering gaslighting angle. As if my life wasn't miserable enough when I decided I was through with God's fan club the first time. The second time was the clencher. You know what they say. Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice...

I'm sorry but Kristi is either angry about something she discovered, shocked by it, disappointed, or incapable of accepting it. Her videos rely upon false translations of scripture. She routinely denies taking the responsibility to investigate properly, offering the excuse that things should be simple. Unfortunately, they're not, and this because of the enemy, who consistently twists scripture (offering the world modern translations) in order to discredit it. No contradictions exist in the original text. I don't really have the time to go through and correct Kristi on every video, but I will drop in occasionally to cover what needs covering. Concentrate of the KJV (1611 if necessary, realizing that in one two places better translated words could be employed), and use Bible Dictionaries or Concordances. Of course, this is if you care enough to want to be right.

Satan is a made up character (originally it was just a title, and was also applied to humans, the character was expanded on by early christians who had a childish problem with god being responsible for evil, even though the OT has a few verses that make it clear that its gods ARE responsible for evil), however, IF I believed in such childish nonsense, I would easily believe that the torah, bible and qur'an were from Satan.
Think about it; *what kind of character wants to be worshipped? A mature, secure, holy, calm, caring, godlike character, or an insecure, immature, narcissistic, sadistic, petty character?*
*What kind of character is so illogical and immoral as to base saving people on their beliefs, rather than what kind of people they actually are, and, in many of these belief systems, is supposed to torture unbelievers for eternity?

"there is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear" BUT "work out your salvation with fear and trembling" ALSO "god is not the author of confusion" were just a few verses that stuck out to me when deconstructing my faith.
It's a drawn out story about a mob boss, a petty tyrant, a gaslighting abuser.
Fundamentalists “love” out of fear and obedience . The “love” they feel is the emotional attachment associated to family, tradition , get-togethers , community , friendly church experience , activities , fun and laughter etc all with in the context of Christianity. But they FEAR yaweh . Otherwise they wouldn’t be afraid to question
The almighty , all jealous , wrathful , avenging , capricious, sometimes loving sometimes kind Yaweh wants you to believe in him, love him and worship him ….or ELSE! Imagine a parent like that to a small child : “ love me or go live on the street !”
Yaweh also dishonors women . They are only 2/3 of a man 🙄
Of course they fear him, the real fundies love telling you how awful, horrible, undeserving of even breathing air, but if you kiss gods ass he'll love you

The God of the Bible reflects the behavior of a Bronze-age tribal Chieftan: He demands to be worshipped, all must bow before him, he quickly angers at any show of disobedience, he inflicts punishments on any who question him. He is unaccountable to anyone. That Biblical God is the product of a primitive, unsophisticated ancient tribe.

That's sad you are giving Satan more praise than God
Then you didn't read the Old Testament, for one of the great declarations of God's love is found there, declaring that "God is slow to anger and of great mercy." You only want to see what you want to see, and find what you want to find. It's like being in a flower garden and only seeing dung.

Amen.
Kristi's understanding is limited. She's ignorant. Translation of ancient Hebrew to modern English (or Polish) is arbitrary. This means a word here or a word there changes the meaning or complexion of an original statement. So your mic drop shouldn't be voluntary. Go back to the drawing board and study properly!
@@artstation707Wouaf ! Wouaf ! Very constructive, rich and profound comment ! Wouaf !
@@artstation707 So what's your point? You are saying that the meaning of the bible can't be trusted which is just as bad.
@@checkfactschecking No. I'm saying modern translations cannot be trusted. Try to remember. Unless you access the original Hebrew text, you're at the mercy of translators. Fortunately, original Hebrew renditions do still exist. They're called Interlinear Bibles, and they offer the original languages alongside the modern translations. Another way to do this: E-Sword, a free electronic Bible application which allows you to compare different translations of scripture, including the KJV from 1611, and also a KJV with concordance numbers referring to bible dictionaries which offer several meanings for many words. Hundreds of translations can be downloaded as modules. It is a great source of information.
I was around 5 years old when I first started questioning God's "lovingness." I was a child in the 1950s and it was common during that time for parents to "shame" their kids if they did not want to eat their meals. The common phrase was "there are STARVING children in -Africa, India etc etc that would LOVE to eat that food that YOU are WASTING !" That NEVER phased my sibblings or any other kids that I knew but in my case, I'd walk around feeling guilty all day because I still did NOT want to eat the foods that I didn't like. But one day I also started thinking "what's WRONG with this picture?! What did I DO to be born as a middle class white child in suburban USA , INSTEAD of a starving kid in one of the 3rd world countries!? WHAT makes ME so much BETTER that I have abundance while THEY do not!? And even at age 5 there was NO answer that would indicate that "God" was an all LOVING or even a FAIR deity!
Damn, you were a child in the 1950s??
I was born in 1956, and I can confirm that parents did indeed use the "there are starving children in. . ." shtick. With my parents it was "starving children in China." Go figure. I always wondered how whether I ate my peas or not made any difference to a starving kid anywhere, but didn't dare say a thing. . .
@@MrPublickenemy1 Is that so surprising? My mother was born in 1950 and would just be 73 today if she hadn't died early of sepsis.
@@knarf_on_a_bike wow, that is pretty fascinating. Are you from the u.s.? What were race relations like during those times in your perspective? I’m sorry for these random questions, I’m just intrigued.
No, even starving people wouldn't eat my mom's cooking. Seriously, they would die first..
Why should I worship a God that doesn’t do anything for me? If God is jealous then, he should just give me what I want. Then I wouldn’t of had to worship other Gods.
Remember...the bible is the supposed "inerrant word of god" which of course houses the old testament...*but its still in their bible* even when I was younger..the OT god gave me some serious chills. This god is supposedly "all knowing"...yada yada. But the actions of a "loving god" obviously told quite the polar opposite.
It has always been mildly amusing to me that the supposed all-knowing God of the Bible starts out in Genesis 1 by demonstrating that he hasn't got a clue how the earth and the humans came to be. So much for YHWH as the Creator God.
@@LarsPallesen 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍and also mentions somewhere later in the bible that he grieved making humans... that sounds like epic defeat for an "all powerful god"
When Christians get backed into a corner, they love to pull out the "God can do whatever He wants because He's God" card, but that means He could save every man woman and child without killing His son and a whole bunch of innocent animals. Therefore, the God of the Bible must have really wanted to kill his son and a whole bunch of innocent animals. Appalling.
I swear my family and old church use this excuse every time. It’s so frustrating because at that point God has no accountability ever just us. It’s do as I say not as I do because I’m better than you. It’s mind boggling
Bingo, Jesus don't get offended...don't start targeting VERY evil ppl.
You don't get it. If you don't trust and have faith in your spouse, your marriage is ended. If you don't have faith in your surgeon, the procedure is cancelled. If your child rejects you as a parent, you've lost that sacred connection.
In God's eyes, there is nothing good or righteous about mankind. We just don't cut it. We're very flawed and crude. A man's faith and trust is the only offering acceptable to God as righteous. Good deeds come and go like good weather. Tested faith is like hard currency in the hand. God chose faith as pre-eminent in mankind. It's more workable and emphasises relationship which is his intended purpose!
Like any marriage, not everyone is faithful and there are degrees of being faithful. The nature of faith, like anything of value, is that it has to be tested and proven.
Abraham was therefore accredited with righteousness because he had passed the test of faith. Therefore a relationship between God and his spiritual descendants came into existence. In return, God showing his faithfulness and love, sacrificed his son in actuality to redeem Abraham's spiritual descendants through his only son Jesus Christ. This is an extremely emotional and poignant moment for God. Everyone must understand sin can only be reconciled this way and can only be scrubbed out this way. Sin brings death. You must join the dots. Capiche?

This is a really good perspective when reading and trying to understand the bible.

When you read these passages in relation to the bible as Kristi is pointing out. You get a 'Panorama' view of the meaning, and another picture emerges. The biblical God is not so loving after all. I would have never thought of this till Kristi pointed this out. Come to think of it, the biblical God is a lot like man. A manmade God. Thank you Kristi for opening our view on the bible.

I've only listened to the first two minutes and I can tell this is going to be an excellent video - I can definitely relate to the points you've made so far. 👌
The 1st liar in the Bible was the character named God. He lied by telling Adam that he would surely die on the day he ate of the forbidden fruit. The serpent told Eve the truth.
Maybe this all-knowing god should know not to put a couple of forbidden trees in the middle of a garden with people who don't know right from wrong yet, and a talking serpent that they will actually listen to instead of running away from it scared sh*tless since a serpent can't talk.
It is like a parent putting a baby in a crib with a loaded gun, telling the baby not to use the gun, and then putting their sibling in the room to show them how to use it. Whose fault is that when they get shot?!?!?
Yes, yes and yes (to everything you said). Excellent video, Kristi.
We moved around a lot when I was in school and I had to learn Welsh, Latin, Zulu and Afrikaans. For that reason alone, I cannot forgive God (for confusing the tower-builders and causing them to scatter).
Thank you ever so much for making this video. I totally agree with you.
The authors of the bible (people, not a God)had a #1 priority to maintain their control of the people with the philosophy they created. When you realize this, it all makes sense.

Love is a spontaneous feeling of happiness and caring toward the beloved. God does not love his creations. In fact he is sorry he made mankind.
From his sting operation against Adam and Eve to his simulated death on the cross to save humanity for the sins he allowed them to commit against him
it's been a bad relationship from the beginning, full of anger, jealousy, narcissism, false promises, eternal torture and damnation
never mind disease, starvation, birth defects, and agonizing death.
Whoever calls this love is not reading the Bible.
Where did you get that definition? Love isn’t a spontaneous feeling of happiness
With that description... I'd rather chill with Lucifer/Satan
Seems like they have far better love than the Christian god I was indoctrinated to believe

There have been some early gnostic christian thinkers who read these obvious contradictions and concluded the father of jesus could not be the god of the old testament.
Mark 12:30-31 (KJV) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Thanks for your presentation on what god is really like in the Bible. Despite many Christians claiming god is love, he seldom shows it in the Bible.
You don't offer much scope. Everything you do and say is contrary to his will. What exactly are you expecting?
@@artstation707 You guys really are brainwashed defenders of Hebrew fiction aren't you?

*This website is designed to spread the vicious truth about the Bible. For far too long priests and preachers have completely ignored the vicious criminal acts that the Bible promotes. The so called God of the Bible makes Osama Bin Laden look like a Boy Scout. This God, according to the Bible, is directly responsible for many mass-murders, rapes, pillage, plunder, slavery, child abuse and killing, not to mention the killing of unborn children.* I have included references to the Biblical passages, so grab your Bible and follow along.
*It always amazes me how many times this God orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said Thou shall not kill.* For example, God kills 70,000 innocent people because David ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21).
God also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the Israelites can live there. He orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of all of value (Deuteronomy 3). He orders another attack and the killing of all the living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and asses (Joshua 6). In Judges 21 He orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and married. When they wanted more virgins, God told them to hide alongside the road and when they saw a girl they liked, kidnap her and forcibly rape her and make her your wife!
*Just about every other page in the Old Testament has God killing somebody!* In 2 Kings 10:18-27, God orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their very own church! In total God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered
The God of the Bible also allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 & Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9). ***This type of criminal behavior should shock any moral person.***
***Murder, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, and child abuse can not be justified by saying that some god says it’s OK.*** If more people would actually sit down and read the Bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself. *Jesus also promoted the idea that all men should castrate themselves to go to heaven:* For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it (Matthew 19:12). *I don’t know why anyone would follow the teachings of someone who literally tells all men to cut off their privates.*
The God of the Bible also was a big fan of ritual human sacrifice and animal sacrifice.
*And just in case you are thinking that the evil and immoral laws of the Old Testament are no longer in effect, perhaps you should read where Jesus makes it perfectly clear:* It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid (Luke 16:17). There are many more quotes on this topic at my Do Not Ignore the Old Testament web page.

Watch *"Context!!!!!!"* by NonStampCollector
(A good video for believers who try to rationalise Biblical atrocities and immorality by saying "Out of context".)
God is love means the Trinity is relationally complete in love. God the Father loves Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit loves the Father and loves the Son. It does not mean God = Love. It means that God has always loved the Godhead.
How God relates to sinners is a different matter. God is not required to love evil persons - which is the summation of the fallen human race.
Do you love Komodo dragons? Should you love them?
@@timothykeith1367makes sense what your saying but it also makes Gods selfish to create ppl just to destroy them.... Only a bad person would do such a manipulative action. Now we are calling God good because he's all powerful to do fucked up acts... SMH.
I love the part where god's chosen people were stuck going through the desert and they just mentioned that they were hungry and thirsty, so the god of love sent tons of venomous snakes to kill a bunch of them.
😮
Yes, and that's why Jesus mentioned in Luke 11:11 “You fathers-if your children ask for a fish, do you give them a snake instead?" Jesus was referring to that very incident, where their father the devil, sent snakes among the Israelites cause they complained from a lack of food. John 8:44 "For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies."
@@morningglory9288wait so you're saying essentially that when Jesus refers to "God the Father," that he's referring to a different entity from Yaweh (from some of the passages like this in the OT?) (Genuine question)
@hannahb2383 yes exactly. Yahweh IS the devil. So many Christians automatically assume whenever Jesus prayed to his father, he was praying to this Yahweh, but they are so so misleaded.
Actually the true God of divine love who Jesus did pray to and came to earth to represent was a feminine God entity. There's not much evidence in the bible to prove this, because Jehovah/Yahweh/Satan is a jealous God, who desires exclusive devotion. He inspired men to pen the bible in such a way so that he gets the recognition and glory that does not rightly belong to him.
In Genesis 3:15 there the "woman" (or true God of divine love) was struck figuratively in her head. This is likened to a death blow, so all proof of her existence through historical records and manuscripts are lost or destroyed.
In Genesis 1:31 it was this true God of divine love that was very happy with her creative works. At that point God was simply known as "God", no name just a title. It was not until Genesis 2:4 that Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD came on the scene. He was the male God entity that rebelled in heaven and was cast out down to the vicinity of the earth, along with ⅓ of the spirit beings who sided with him. Rev 12: 9 The whole account of Revelation chptr 12 speaks about the rebellion that took place in heaven between Yahweh/LORD/Satan and the woman or true God of divine love. If you want me to clarify this for you, I can.
In Psalms 83:18 Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD is recognized as the highest over all the earth. In 1 John 5:19 Satan is said to be ruler over it. These two powerful spiritual beings are one and the same. Also compare 1 Chronicles 21:1 with 2 Samuel 24:1. There it speaks of the same account but one says Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD the other says Satan.
@@morningglory9288 The discourse you mention in John actually begins somewhat earlier, where Jesus gets into a dispute with the Pharisees at 8:13 . The people whom he calls "The children of your father the devil" are almost certainly them. True, Jesus talks to "the Jews who had believed in him" starting at 8:31. Is it they whom He goes on to call "children of the devil"? There are some inconsistences and obscurities regarding the adressees here. I'll opt for the Pharisees as "children of the devil, your father".
There is no hate quite like Christian love.
Absolute truth!
You rocked it!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!❤
❤️❤️❤️
I can't understand why God couldn't have given Adam and Eve a second chance! Christian parents don't kick _their_ children out of the nice comfy home to live in the cold prickly garden, while cursing them to die, after those children disobeyed them for the very first time!
And loving Christian parents would never condemn their own children to eternal torment under any circumstance! At least not the _sane_ ones!
Two Testaments, two Gods, Trying to combine the two cost me a lot of wasted time.
Job was being gaslit. Wow! I never realized that before. The god of the Bible was gaslighting Job and denying the validity of his pain. Wow!
YESSS. It's another video by Kristi! 🙂
hello!
@@HolySpiritIsSatanOfSinDethHell She never will.
In the garden at the East of Eden, when the psychopath in charge tell to the Adam " Do not eat the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, for in that day you will surely die"
And the Adam lived 900 more years after that🤣
The best part is the serpent in the garden, the character who is identified as the king of the lie,
is precisely the unic character who ain't lie at all😎🤘
Floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, malaria, smallpox, poilio, cholera, influenza, yellow fever, cancer, etc., all created by the "loving" god.
This is the greatest paradox in human history; the belief that God is the ultimate in love, when, in fact, IF HE EXISTS, is the greatest monster humanity has ever encountered.
Or created
No, all of those things are the fault of capitalism. God made the world so that we could all live a happy and prosperous life. All of those things are the product of envy, wrath, vengeance, need, and greed.
Thank You for all the videos you have made it makes me really think about how I was conditioned as a child...so much did not make sense to me but was excused or not mentioned... please continue it helps us to see what the Bible actually says not what we were taught...
