Unbelievable? engages in fundamental questions on Christianity with the intention to openly discuss different opinions between Christians and non-believers.
Each Saturday, in the award-winning programme Unbelievable, Justin Brierley asks questions like:
Is there evidence for God? Can we trust the Bible? Did Jesus rise from the dead?
Justin tackles these and other issues, on a show that gets Christians and non-believers talking to each other.
I'm a biologist, years ago I made an essay about DNA, through my investigation I saw GOD everywhere..and I wroted in my essay I didn't just limited to science....when I finally give it to my genetics professor she was furious, but I didn't care...I received the congrats of other colleagues. Till now I see GOD everywhere in HIS creation.
Wow 👏 That’s really courageous. May God keep blessing your life with more knowledge in Jesus Christ. We as christians need people like yourself in the scientific field to defend the Word, and share the salvation we have in Jesus Christ to those that think science disproves God.
@@marcocortes9968 Amen! 🙏🏻 Thanks for your words. God bless you too and provides according with His will. 🌻
i dont understand how this is made, therefore god. xD
@@Zfast4y0u Nucleobase G-C-A-T there is the answer...
@@carolayala1841 mhm.
Hugh is a treasure and gift from God. Found him in my early search for answers years ago and he’s had an amazing impact on my life. God bless this man.
Amen
In Jesus name.. Amen.
What are some of your favorite places to find his more in depth explanations of the ideas he is bringing up
@Miguel Cisneros , well, of course, it doesn't. But new Christians will do things like that. And so what? He's a believing Christian.
Essentially anyone who spreads the belief of God, ideally effectively, is a Prophet. Where this man is effective is he is able to convince people of science that God is real by scientific data, history, trends, and widely accepted scientific theory’s. And God works through people. So what you say is actually true lol
Hugh Ross has such a calm & peaceful mannerism about him. It's a great addition to the various other personalities Justin has interviewed. Keep up the good work Justin!
Hugh Ross found peace in believing an invisible man hiding in the clouds was his friend.
James Richard Wiley ?????????
@@JamesRichardWiley Well that's not what God is.
@@Myeeers Just as confused
@@JamesRichardWiley God was always described as Yahweh meaning essence Pompi tried to loot the Jewish temple he expected a gold statue all he found was empty space the Jews informed him that their God was being or essence so his body wasn't defined. Thus its unique.
In '89, I was in college and had found my Jesus at 16. As I grew, I wanted to learn more and love science and was engaging in lots of conversations with non believers. Someone gave me a couple of tapes of him speaking. He blew my mind open !!!!! I relate to God through nature and science. This man is the embodiment of this perspective. I credit him to the deepening of my faith when I needed it most. Thanks Hugh Praise The Lord for giving you what you have and your gift to us all.
Well indeed - nature was the first book written... The bible came centuries later. It was all oral before. He gave us Nature to point toward Him. Even the stars in the sky and the seasons
God bless Mr.Ross.
It is both such a pleasure and a privilege to watch a person like Hugh Ross. Apart from the amazing knowledge he shares, what I love about him is his calm demeanor - almost surreal. He is such a gentleman.
I really like Hugh Ross. I found him 6/7 years ago. Have been admiring him since.
Don't forget to admire the creator more than the creation :), it is the Creator who opens the eyes/heart of His creation :)
@@jesalf9604 Obviously I worship the creator. I admire the created 🥰
@@zonunralte4742 right mentality the creation also beautiful :)
It's so refreshing to hear someone steeped in scientific knowledge and with such a gentle manner, express his belief in God's existence. He shares that belief with all those that simply do not question at all. Faith and science are a marriage made in Heaven. Thank you Heavenly Father for men and women of science who proclaim your existence and may You guide others towards your Light. "In the beginning there was God."
Thank you so so much! These past 2 months I have been struggling maintaining my faith because of some theories from where I questioned myself who is the creator of all of these, but now I know that there is proof that God is the Creator of this universe.
You are not alone! I relate to you🤗
Same here my Once friend ☺️
I recently had some trouble maintaining my faith as well. But this man, who is far more intelligent than me in science and theology, is convincing us that God exists. All Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Knowing God is also something that once you do believe you find yourself actually encountering Him personally on a daily and for me on a moment by moment basis. When you come to that point in your relationship with Him you realize that you could never deny His existence ever again nor would you want to.
The bible says that man can learn about the existence of God through his creation. Hugh Ross follows that principle and proceeds meticulously in the pursuit of the clues that God leaves for man to discover.
“Faith does not eliminate questions. But faith knows where to take them.” Elisabeth Elliott
A day is like a 1000 yrs and a thousand yrs is like a day. This helped me understand that the days in the creation to God who is outside of time was like a day but to us was a really long time.
You are still 6 orders of magnitude out.
@@Spike123.98 It's an example, it means your days are nothing in the sight of god, In the quran, sometimes God's day is like 1000 years and sometimes it's 50,000 years, the objective is not to tell exact days, but he just wants us to tell that his day can be 1000 years, or 50,000 years or 5000000 of our reckoning.
It's a sign that our days are nothing in the sight of God.
@@maazanis763 The Quran is false.
@@AlexG-so1zf The Quran we have is in its original language. Millions of people memorized it word to word, that is how it is preserved.
At least try to read it once and you will know the reality.
@@maazanis763 That proves nothing.
This nonsense about the "original language" is pure BS!
Are you suggesting that memorization of the alleged text somehow gives it more credence?
Are you suggesting that it cannot be adequately translated into modern languages?! - BS!!!!
Pure nonsense made up and inaccurately plagiarized from the Bible by an idiot that was a sadistic, narcissistic mad man, forced upon an entire culture with the caveat of - believe it, or we will kill you and your entire family!!!!!!
Which exists to this day!!!
No freewill!
Forced generational compliance!!
Very good interviewing, Justin, congratulations, thanks.
Great interviewing, great science, great apologetics.
I just love to listen to Hugh Ross!!! What a brilliant and outstanding man of God
Yes, Brother Doc! Fascinating, indeed! God's using the physics and laws of the universe to deliver us to a brand newness of life... redemption...has always been somewhat below the surface of my deep understanding (not like any of us could completely understand). But the way you've explained it elegantly crystallizes it for me! May our Abba's grace and love continue to be upon you, yours & Brother Justin! Much Love & Respect! ☝🙏💖👊💯
I saw Hugh about 10 years ago at my church. Bought his debate dvd too. I have 10 years of post secondary education, and the Bible is a study far deeper than anything I've ever read regarding thermodynamics, electricity, or any of my other areas of training. You almost have to un learn what you knew before to open your mind up to the concept, and it works.
It is. The Bible is really an almost endlessly deep book. Anyone who really takes a deep, solid look at the Bible is going to have their minds challenged and changed by it. I find that those who have the most hostility towards the Bible invariably have only a superficial grasp of it.
@@DavidVonR your reply to the video is a clear indication of your lack of understanding of the scriptures in the Bible. Ever heard of critical thinking? Probably not, as you believe as children.
Another koolaid drinker.
@@hannesjordaan, it's interesting that Jesus celebrates the belief of children. He's not as sophisticated as you are, I suppose.
@@bobtaylor170 you clearly are the sophisticated one in the room, as I clearly don't see how a figment of your imagination is able to celebrate the belief of children driven by lack of knowledge. Isn't it written in your religious scriptures that man was made in the image of your god? You are as sophisticated as your god it seems, but don't make the mistake to think everyone drinks the same cool-aid. Further reading is required than that bronze age sheepherders manual.
Have a fantastic day and let unbelievers experience your jesus love for them as you are commanded, not the fake kind you are displaying here.
Incredible...!!! Thank you both!!!
I .heard a scientist saying we put man on the moon but failed to ask who put us .on planet earth with water and such vegetation
Dr. Ross is just the BEST!!!
And i just recently found this guy what a find!!!
"I spent 2 years going through the Bible trying to find some place where it got it wrong on predicting future scientific discoveries. Never did."
What about Psalm 104 - one of the verses that talks of stretching out the heavens - where it also says "He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved".
Anyone?
Yes. The earth is a non-rotating, stationary plane.
The Bible speaks of its width, its breadth, its shape is circular, not spherical. And, The sun makes its circuit (circle) along with the moon and stars, as they move within the firmament, right, where God placed them when he created them.
Study chapter 1 carefully. Draw pictures of what you see as you read. That’s just an idea, something I had to do to really get it.
The Bible has over 200 scriptural references to the Earth, being stationary, immovable, circular, etc.; and not one single intimation that it is shaped like a ball, or sphere.
We all know that water, when released from its container, always seeks and finds level.
We were all taught that the Earth spins on its axis at over 1000 mph! And that it rotates around the sun once a year. Northstar the nort The North Star, Polaris, does not move from where it was placed by the Lord on day one.
All the other Sun, moon, and stars rotate around Polaris.
You can video the night sky and then play it back in high speed. You’ll see for yourself.
Not true.
God placed the sun, moon, stars, and wandering stars (“ planets”) in the firmament that he created over the Earth, to separate the waters from the waters.
We were never taught this.
Did you know there is water above us? I was stunned to find this out and yet it is right there in page one of the Bible!
We were all lied to from birth. The heliocentric model of cosmology is an anti-God scheme from Satan.
Earth is geocentric. The lights in the sky are close, they are not zillions of miles away from us. They are close, and they rotate above us each on their own timeframe.
I could go on and on, but maybe this was enough to get you started looking.
It’s crazy. It’s mind blowing because of how we’ve been taught!
If you sit out to prove that the globe is real, you will end up finding the truth.
The world is flat and stationary. And beautiful.
God resides on his throne above the firmament.
He sees us all.
God bless you and keep you on your journey seeking the truth. 🙏
LOVE this Interview :D !!!
This was an excellent video and lot of additional points there that again prove God and His word to be solid TRUTH!
This is really eye opening. Helped me to be more tolerant of other points of view.
let us not forget it was believers who funded and improve science.
Thank you
Excellent discussion!
God is great. He hasguidedDr. Ross so excellently
Yes it's true , Hugo Ross is a very educate , calm and very intelligent man , a man of God , I do really enjoy all is videos , they're really rich in wisdom . Thank you Mister Hugo Ross .
“In Scripture, faith involves placing trust in what you have reason to believe is true. Faith is not a blind, irrational leap into the dark. So faith and reason cooperate on a biblical view of faith. They are not intrinsically hostile.” J.P. Moreland
There appears to be more than one definition of faith being used in the Bible, as the ability to trust w/o evidence is also said to be a gift from God, supposedly.
Well done Hugh. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I still couldn't see how the Pope could have more answers about the universe than the rest of humanity.
He doesn't!
The infallible one arrested Galileo for stating that the earth revolves around the sun!
The Catholic Church held this view for about 200 years (multiple Pope's) ~1600 - 1820's(?). They did not fully let go of the idea until ~1982(?)
Now, they take "no position" on the issue!
They were maid out to be idiots for centuries!
Infallible - pfffttt!
With all due respect if the Pope doesn’t read the Bible he may have very little answers to lots of issues just like everyone else. 🤷♀️ Christians and Catholics as individuals were asked to take the Bible as God’s word, not follow individuals currently on earth with titles who think they know best. It’s definitely concerning if someone asks the Pope to be taken as the man with more answers.
That’s Simply Amazing!
Love tjis man God bless u
i wish i had his knowledge he is fascinating
I don’t believe enough people even know how to formulate the question Christian physicist, in their mind or this would have millions of views.
Pray for the world 🌎
Hugh Ross is awesome.
Hey the man gives good arguments and good facts
Fascinating.... SCIENCE...!
The King James tells the reader that the "Days" are not literal days , right after the creation passages it says " These days are the generations of the creation " !!!!!!!! It is telling the reader that the days are long periods of time !!!!!
Enid Snarb so glad I read this comment. I’ve never heard anyone mention this. Can’t believe I missed it. Thanks!
well you have to go by the Hebrew and not King James - but the point still would be similar.

4:11 lolz that gave me chills
I was drawn to JESUS through a Gideon New Testament King James Authorized Version Bible! HALLELUJAH! 🎺💃🥰
I'd said, "If I had a Bible, I would read it and see if there's a GOD, or if it's all just a fairytale." My Sister Vita had a Bible in her purse! I began reading, and she went to sleep. In the middle of the night Vita sat up and said, "Pam, JESUS touched me." So the LORD touched my Sister when was atheist, and full of hate too! I thought I was lost because I'd read in her Bible that one would be taken and the other left. But JESUS washed me as I read that KJV NT...and wept, for TWO WHOLE DAYS! I had fallen in love with JESUS! Then the LORD led me to John 16:24 where He taught me how to pray! I prayed, "FATHER touch me in the name of JESUS!" With that prayer on CHRISTMAS EVE in 1972, PAPA GOD sent HOLY GHOST very sweetly and gently down into my heart! GLORY! I woke up CHRISTMAS MORNING, BORN AGAIN! HALLELUJAH! 🎄❤️✝️❤️🎄
2:44 I didn't know about the expanding thing was in the bible 🤯
Thanks
I was hoping to find a debate between him and Bill Nye so I could watch Nye squirm. I have watched Hugh debate astrophysicist and young earth scientist Dr. Jason Lisle and it seemed they both had good points. Im not sure which one I fall into yet but so far I go old universe and young earth so I guess Im a hybrid. As long as Christians do not let this seperate us and deflect the main message of the gospel then I think the debates between Christians are good
Nye would eat him for lunch, no contest.
@@hannesjordaan A legitimate PhD in astrophysics that worked at Caltech for 5 years vs an actor? - Seriously?
Nye is not a scientist.
He "played" one on TV - DOH!!!!
Nye gets $50k to appear!!!!
You do realize Star Trek is NOT real. - Right?
Captain Kirk was acting!
He never flew a starship! - dah!
Typical response of the social media educated.
Well, if a scientist debates a philosopher, the scientist will likely have a harder time debating as they work off studies and research, and not a study of philosophy and philosophers, which often asks questions we can't answer definitively.
Great guys seem to named Ross,
Can we credit Confucius, Aristotle and enlightened philosophers before genesis. Aristotle actually has sections in his works called *Physics, Metaphysics, Soul, Evolution of Animals, Politics and Categories*. He was even criticized for publicizing his teachings, sorta like some other enigmatic figure.
llever
Confucius & Aristotle, although brilliant & influential, are not the given reason that science could be done. When we started this in the west, it was to discover the order that God had put in place. It was believed at the time, that things were all fixed, & thus discoverable (not arbitrary). There was a renewed interest in the Greeks & Romans, & the corruption of men of power, of any stripe, were becoming easier to spot. This rebellion against the old orders, & a fervent belief in the need to connect with a higher power, caused the change.
Of course there are the Voltaires of that time, but you also have Kant & a renewed interest in men who worked in dark corners of forgotten Monasteries. Information was getting out in all kinds of new ways! The middle class was forming & becoming aware of the greater fount of cloistered knowledge.
So, although the ideas of those men were instrumental, to say they drove it, is to ignore the greater narrative of the times. Glory for God alone, not the King, was also prevalent. It was also more persecuted, since it came from poor men, not the wealthy, or the fast growing middle class. It is also less written of for the same reason, outside court documents. Although men like Napoleon, also used this abuse of the poor to gain favor.
@@mackdmaraI was crediting scholars whos arguements remain in modern dialogue and written before Christ.
Ooh the Greeks thought everything was made from earth, fire, water, air. Silly right? But solid, plasma, liquid, gas. You have your interpretations I have mine.
llever
I never said they were not important, quite the contrary. That said, the history books sight God repeated also. The Big Bang was posited by a Catholic. You cannot simply whitewash out the majority of the movement & the minor movements around it, in favor of the secular discourse that also was there. I just wanted to voice the greater narrative.
I respect the views of Aristotle, I do not think you share that respect for those you speak to on the internet. You were not all wrong, but you were not all right either. Sorry it bothered you. I still hold the world made of atoms & smaller particles. Not really Aristotelian, but true.
Have a great day, all the Love chum.
I'm not bothered I understand your view, I know of the priest who had to convince the Pope story. You didn't mention where you leant, atheist, agnostic, catholic?
llever
They told the Pope sure. Convince is a bit strong of wording, especially since it took the accepted world view from an eternal universe to one with a beginning that was defined. The Pope welcomed the news. The atheists worried it gave to much of a reason to accept Christianity, Judaism, or Islam. That was not unfounded, but it is not a good reason to deny any scientific discovery either. Even Einstein had to wait for Hubble to clench it, before he could openly admit he put in a fudge factor to deny the Big Bang. He died a deist, not an atheist.
Now as to my leaning, much of my family is Catholic, I am not. I believe God can be known & that anything short of deism requires you disregard our modern scientific understanding of what is. I personally find to much evidence goes beyond that to deny Christ. At base, Christian thought is unlike other religious thinking.
Simply put, in the world & most religions, you are weighed & if found lacking, lose. This fear is what drives your achievement. It is the same at a job. In Christianity, it is the opposite. Jesus saves you, & you achieve because of the gift of salvation you have. It is motivation by Love, not fear. It does require you accept that Love. Not from men, but God. The good news is still good news, because it did not come from men.
Many scientists who now are “willing to accept theism” due to the fine-tuning of the Cosmos and in particular the genetic code of information, have a serious sticking point with the Holocaust and the horrible damage done by the Germans to the Poles and Russians.
I would be interested in Dr. Ross’ response.
Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)
Because we have free will?
@@Spike123.98 I'm not sure that "free will" would have been an acceptable excuse for those people standing in line for the gas chambers. Do you?
Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)
@@sanjosemike3137 Free will to choose right from wrong.
@@Spike123.98 And also, because of our fallen nature, we make the wrong moral choices often. We are capable of great evil: with the Holocaust, the awful thing about it was that the people who perpetrated it were not abused children or whatever, but normal people who had the absolute power of life and death over millions of others.
The sticking point is exactly what?
Why don't others measure up to the high moral standards of the atheists?
What, in atheism and evolutionary theory, would say that it's ethically bad to kill innocent people?
Where, in the history of ideas, do atheists think they got the idea that we should treat others the way we want to be treated?
The problem with the sticking point is that they are taking both science and ethics AS IF the Christian premises of both are self-evidently true. But they're the ones denying it, remember?
Their argument seems to be that atrocity and genocide proves their atheism true.
and most importantly he loves Jesus
He precisely states the truth
Bible happens to say something that vaguely sounds like a modern day discovery, and we got a believer.
Makes perfect sense, eh?
I came to this excited that I might hear something new from the theist side. Unfortunately it became apparent very quickly that it's just another round of the usual fare
7:05. Some theorize that there is no rest cause that’s when eternity starts
It is quite fascinating to view Hugh Ross, saying that Jesus is the creator god of the Universe,
when the Gospels present a quite different Jesus. Notably: "I can of mine ownself do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me" John 5:30 (KJV)
And in Acts 3:13- we find "God has glorified his servant Jesus"
"But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." Matthew 24:36 (KJV)
Read John 1
Ah the mormon posts!
You do realise that Jesus is the son.
But then you need to realise Jesus is god.
But he is the son .
But he is god.
That makes 2 gods. Because Jesus is a man and has a soul and a body of flesh.
He is the son
But he is god.
So how would he talk to him self.
Like a son to a father and vice versa cause that’s what it is.
But they are one. But they are two.
It’s hard to comprehend.
I been struggle to think that there is actually 2 gods.
Jesus and the lord.
But they are the same. But there is still 2
@@tened8530
Your confusion respecting God and Jesus is because you are unable to separate fiction from reality. The expressed belief that Jesus is the Son of God is a rather curious notion. Jesus was a Galilean peasant who apparently earned a living as a carpenter until he discovered the attraction of religion while attending a baptismal gathering on the banks of the river Jordan. From this time on he wandered from village to village, living on charity and preaching life was possible after death. He would later be executed along with two criminals.
You should realise that Jesus later developed a cult following which would later become a major religion. Now if you need to believe in the existence of a god or god then you would do well to examine the behaviour and history of these alleged deitys before you decide to fall on your knees. Because you may find that the gods you pray to have feet of clay.
@@edwardlongfellow5819 that’s your opinion but that’s baseless. Jesus life and death was prophecy fulfilled.

@@FrigidHeights Rofl another brainless believer, explain the evidence according to recognized scientific methods?
We all make mistakes in reasoning. When ancient myths become increasingly irrelevant, use modern cosmology as a crutch.
Can some please tell me if there are more christain scientists who preach about Jesus christ in a scientific way? please please, this will help me since I am schooling into the medical field which is highly critical of Jesus christ, please I need some encouragement, thanks, pretty please with suger on top

Dear Mr Ross where's my Saturn poster?
Speciation hasn't stopped since humans though. Plenty of examples observed in recent times. Not disagreeing in general, just on that point.
Could you give an example of a new mammal species in the last 50,000 or so years?
Just curious.
@@MutsPub Well I'm not aware offhand of any mammals in that short a time unless you count domesticated ones like Canus domesticus, and no one would have observed it in any case, but there have been some birds, and dozens of plants and insects (shorter generation time) observed in laboratory settings.
@@colmwhateveryoulike3240 That is the point! Bacteria and bugs!!!!! Not mammals!!!
You said, "Speciation hasn't stopped since humans though. Plenty of examples observed in recent times."
Yet, you try to be cute and suggest a dog!!!!!!!!!
Dr. Ross Has been a pastor and PhD scientist, founder and president of Reasons to believe.for~40+ years he knows what he is talking about.
Plenty of examples is what you said!
Plenty!
Plenty!
Do you feel silly?
You should!
@@MutsPub There are plenty of examples of species of life observed to speciate in accordance to the ongoing mechanisms we observe everywhere and that we theorise are enough to account for the millions of speciation events evidenced in geology, biogeography, and phylogenetica. I stand by what I said. If you want to redefine species then go propose that in a journal. Ross is a physicist. I am a biologist so while I'm not as highly qualified, I am more familiar with the relevant field.
1 John 4 : 1- 4 "Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the
spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets
have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit
of God : Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in
the flesh ( as a man physically and spiritually with the nature of King
David.) is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus as
coming in the flesh (as above )is not from God. This is the spirit of
the antichrist (satan as the harlot.), which you have heard is coming
and even now is already in the world."
So what was your point?
It wasn't 24 hrs 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 it was in Jehovah God's time ......a thousand years is as a day to him
Beaullah Lothbrok Smart. And also because we are living in the 7th day it refutes the literal interpretation
yeah that's the thing that got me. I had been praying and asking God t show me how to respond to non believing scientists and that was one of the things that got me. Humans were created on the 6th day... But time is for us - God didn't need time since there is to time with him since He is eternal. Aside from that - because He is eternal - He doesn't rush anything - so why did He rush to create everything in 6 24 hour periods. And then - we don't know how long Adam was alive before Eve... We also don't know how long they were in the Garden before the serpent deceived Eve and they sinned. We act like it all happened in a few weeks. There was no death until sin - so we don't know how long
Those who ridicule and reject the possibility of The Creator God without whom 40 subatomic particles and 4 forces interact specifically to create all we see and know, have a ridiculous image of who God is in their brains,. They seem incapable of seeing a need to respect just Who He Is and what He is capable of (but uses with unimaginable restraint.)
I feel, he is reading too much into the words of Paul Scientific method in the bible? A bit of a stretch.
For whatever reason he came to belief in the Almighty God and Our Savior Jesus Christ, the Angels sing, and let our faith iand trust of God's hand of guidance to lead him and all into His Love, Mercy, Grace, and Salvation...esp. His Chosen Resting Place, Israel..
Of all the earth Hes given us, hes chosen the place ISRAEL, NOT THE PEOPLE, HOWEVER, II INTERESTED, INVEST IN HOW MANY JEWS HAVE COMING TO CHRIST. ON ONE DAYS EVENT..
500(HUNDRED) IN ISRAEL, CAME TO CHRIST! AMEN..GOD IS ON A ROLL!!! 🙏😇🙏

But what if these predictions come not from God but From Extraterrestrials that has Contacted us thousands of years ago?
Only problem i have with this is that creation was done in 6 literal days. The author marks this out by saying "and the evening and the morning were the second day. Think about this: if it took God 7,000 years to create earth it would not nearly be as splendid and miraculous as if He did it in 7 literal days. The book of Genesis is very clear that it was 7 literal days
You read the book of Genesis in English, but it was written in Hebrew.
Post hoc is hell of a drug.
🤔Awesome… Science perpetually continues to catch up with the Bible!

7:25 god created adam and eve on YOM 6 and the texts points to a considerable passage of time between god creating adam and eve (ex months/years)
8:48 i immediately saw how genesis 1 outlined the scientific method. 9:20 the scientific method comes from the pages of the bible.
10:43 god packed the earth with as much diversity and life as possible for as long as possible so we humans could be enriched by huge treasure chest of biodeposits which screams love.
science doesnt exclude the idea of god. but doesnt endorse it either. science simply endorses what it can find empirical evidence for.

GOD is maid this bigger universe. Because He is sinless..He wants his creations this like.
The logos of which God the jews and Muslims believe in a creator. But Jesus as the logos that was with God and was God, then it became a human being.
Allah says in the Quran:”And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander. (47)” Adh-Dhariyat, Ayah 47
Yom followed by a numeral is always an ordinary day. Ch 2 simply adds details to ch.1. I don,t see a long time between Adam and Eve’s creation. The cycle of sevens in the Bible begins in those 7 days of Genesis. When the 10 commandments were given we are told why, because in 6 days God created …… and again in Ex. 31:17 “for in 6 days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the 7th day He rested and was rested. The cycles of 7 continue in Lev.23 ; 25 etc.. The 1st and 7th days are important.
Is Genesis History by Del Tacket is worth. Watching. There are also very well qualified Paleontologists and Geologists have good reasons to believe in a 6 day creation around 6000 yrs. ago. I really appreciate Dr. Hugh Ross but not on this subject.
A day to Jehovah is 1000 years
Where is the spiritual evidence for that? can't it be 500 years or 2000 years for that matter
And what’s the second half again?
And 1000 years is like a day.
what that tells us is that God exists outside of the space time continuum. it’s a poor argument to try to explain how long the days of creation were. (but it does assert that God could have made them longer if he so wanted)
yup. that's what it says.
torah, gospel and quran are all divine books from god
No. Muhammad's acts and instructions in the Quran contradicts the commands and teachings of Jesus in the Bible. Quranic verses are clearly Satanic. I know you have problem accepting it but that is a fact many Muslims find out these days.
@Bad Kitty 369 Why should anyone listen to your opinion?
@Bad Kitty 369 Yours is a fact mine is an opinion! Silly kid.
I find it funny to see very intelligent people trying to fit modern scientific perspectives into the Genesis creation account that was ALWAYS meant to be taken figuratively. It is a poem written that tells the story of a Creator God, not a literal accounting of the beginning of the universe. That's why light exists before stars, etc. The days of creation have a balance and theme (1 and 4, 2 and 5, 3 and 6 - google a chart of it). Anyone with knowledge in creative writing would instantly identify these characteristics as symbolic imagery meant to tell a story rather than historical narrative.
God is the Creator who speaks and creates life. He does it with no challengers, and nothing can thwart His will. Creation is perfect and our sin has defiled it. That is the story of Creation. The rest of the bible is God's evolving process of re-creation of the universe that culminates in Revelation 22.
Everyone, no matter how smart or knowledgeable or wealthy is afraid of the unknown.
Filling that void with the image of an invisible friend who is looking out for you is the remedy.
It’s dangerous to take the Bible and interpret it to fit your narrative, to think that Genesis is figurative “poetry” is crazy imo. The bible is to be taken at face value except when specifically said otherwise in scripture. The Bible isn’t meant to be some elaborate figurative puzzle, it’s meant to be a clear account of the truth behind the world as we know it.
@@FrigidHeights lol, so it absolutely makes sense that light existed before the sources of light existed? Where did you go to school? You should ask your school fees back, you wasted a lot of time and money.
@@hannesjordaan Yes, and that is consistent with scripture. In fact, God says that in the new creation there will be no sun or moon, but God himself will be the source of light.
@@FrigidHeights and that scripture are consistent with what exactly? Some tall tales told by sheepherders from the bronze age telling tales taken from other religious texts that predate your religion? Get real man and get an education.
I respect his work. It is astonishing. but I don't know why he says he didn't find about expansion in other books. For example, it is written in Koran on chapter 51, 47. The heavens, We have built them with power. And verily, We are expanding .
The verse is out of context. Who is the "we" the verse is stating? Were multiple Gods involved? The Trinity? Mankind created the heavens?
What is the context?
@@douglasjacobs882 nope . Allah prefers to say We. It is like humble way of telling instead of saying I. Indeed Allah says he is independent and has no partners.
@@vugar892 Does your God proclaim the desired prefered pronoun in the Koran?
I suppose that it is comforting to consider God humble and no better than any of his/her/ze/zir... creations.
@@douglasjacobs882 here is some words that Allah tells in multiple places in Holy Koran
1-It s self efficient
2- It is independent
3- Time does not exist for him
4-it is not begotten and not begets
5- it has no partners
6-sees/hears everything
7-it has no attributes. We cannot comprehend it. It is beyond imagination.
8- it is only one, absolute truth.
9-Most powerful ( so no one is like him)
@@vugar892 please consider that the attribute he lacks Is love for Sinners. There is only a master slave relationship with Allah. The Bible says "behold what manner of love is this that we could be called children of God!"
I'm afraid being an astrophysicist does not protect you from believing you met the creator of the universe unless it was your own brain that created the creator.
I never could manage to add a creator to the universe. To me there was always just the universe with no creator.
Space and time
Wrong. Quran says "Do they not see that the heavens and earth were joined as one and We clove them asunder & it is We who cause them to steadily expand "
So clearly you've not read Quran like do many before you whove claimed to have done so
the vedic manuscripts from India are thousands of years older than the bible or Quran and say similar things. these guys don't get out much.
It also states that the sun sets in a muddy stream!
@@eniszita7353 They also state that the universe restarts every 4.3 billion years! - pfffttt!
"...met the Creator of the universe" ??? very misleading
Such flawed reasoning within the first minute. To say that because the prevailing theory is that the universe had a beginning does not, as Ross said, imply that there was a beginner. Before humanity knew that the earth revolves around the sun everyone must have believed that God began each day anew. But we progressed and now know that each day proceeds into the next because the earth spins on its axis as it goes around the sun, producing the effect of day and night. Ross is a self described Christian, but the God he speaks of is the “God of the gaps.” That is to say, God is responsible for anything still unexplained by science. I personally find it much more likely that we have much more to learn, so that we can fill in the gaps of our knowledge without throwing our hands in the air and assuming there was any divine intervention
The finite could never comprehend the infinite. We are not concerned with how things work but why anything at all should exist. You can spend eternity trying to understand how such things work or we could just skip to the source of existence and answer the question why everything or anything exists? Such thinking that man can be the master of all things leads to them imagining they are god and we know that is blantly and observable false. You could make science your religion but it is a cold uncaring harlot. Now if you want to make interlectual pursuit your religion then start with this Jesus for it is without a doubt that his teachings have had the biggest effect on more lives than anyone else. To start with anyone else or anything else would only be seen as avoidance.

"Such flawed reasoning within the first minute. To say that because the prevailing theory is that the universe had a beginning does not, as Ross said, imply that there was a beginner."
Please explain then how you get something from nothing?
“Must have believed”
No.
The multiverse is also God of the gaps.
@@BlitzOfTheReich
The Multiverse is an interesting IDEA. That's all it is. Show me some observational evidence, and I'll take it seriously. This is just one more (very popular) answer to The Big Bang. Ever since The Big Bang was shown to be highly likely in the early 60's, Materialist/Naturalist scientists have been trying desperately to find away around it. Its that whole and Genesis 1:1, thing. The Bible Might Be True! :-0
:-(
2:50 ''the only holy book which spoke about universe creation and expanding" The Quran too talks about this...
Indeed Ross lied because The Quran says " The heavens, We have built them with power. And verily, We are expanding it" (51:47). The Quran is full of scientific miracles (I will mention some among dozens) that are not found in the bible not only that but filter out the falsifications added to the bible : for exemple the bible mentions multiple times that earth has"four corners" refering to a flat earth concept, a term never found in the Quran, plus the famous middle ages salafi scholar (lived hundreds of years ago) Ibn hazm reported the consensus among Islamic scholars that The Quran describes earth as a ball like object (with a flat surface). Now tell if this does not refer to the big bang..: Quran 21 30 "[And have not the ones who disbelieved seen that the heavens and the earth were an integrated (mass), then We unseamed them, and of water We have made every living thing? Would they then not believe?] " also in The Quran in chapter The Smoke: "Thereafter, He leveled Himself to the heaven (while) it was smoke, then said to it and to the earth, “Come up (you two) willingly or unwillingly!” They (both) said, “We come up willingly.” So He decreed them as seven heavens in two days, and He revealed in every heaven its Command. And We have adorned the lowest heaven with lamps, and (set Angels) preserving them. That is the determining of the Ever-Mighty, the Ever-Knowing.] " On the 8th of November, 1989, NASA launched its Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite in an orbit that is 600 km away from Earth and the effect of clouds and pollutants in the lower layers of the Earth’s atmosphere. Ten light years away from Earth, COBE sent millions of photos and information about the remnants of the smoke that resulted from the Big Bang. It was a phase of a dark smoke (!!!) that had prevailed in the universe before the heavens and the Earth were created.
Although we believe that these events are far from being known to us, and will remain theories as Almighty Allah says:
[In no way did I make them to witness the creation of the heavens and the Earth, neither the creation of themselves; and in no way would I take to Me the misleaders as supporters.] (Al-Kahf 18:51)
Time relativity Quran " The angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in a day, the measure of which is fifty thousand years." An other exemple" They challenge you ˹O Prophet˺ to hasten the torment. And Allah will never fail in His promise. But a day with your Lord is indeed like a thousand years by your counting."
The Quran corrects the bible's falsifications like these ones " bible 78 65 " Then the Lord rose up as though waking from sleep, like a warrior aroused from a drunken stupor." Or like Ross saying that bible said God took a rest from creating the World in the Quran we read " Indeed, We created the heavens and the earth and everything in between in six Days,1 and We were not ˹even˺ touched with fatigue." Exalted is Allah from all the imperfections these falsifications attributed to Him, an other bible exemple is saying God created the rainbow to remind Him as if He forget or that He was outwrestlted by Jacob peace be upon Him Exalted is Allah from all the imperfections these falsifications attributed to Him. The Quran is not a copy of the bible it's the words of The All Mighty who sent all the prophets like Noah Jacob Moses Joseph Jesus Christ Muhammad peace be upon Them All and speaking about Joseph the Quran says that the ruler at that time was a king unlike the Time of Moses while the bible claims it was a pharoe ..well know after the discovery of rosetta stone we Know that indeed The Quran is The correct One !...again.
6:12 Hugh Ross limits himself to "all creation passages" and pretends it's "self contradictory from a YE perspective" - how about reading all of Biblical H I S T O R Y - and perhaps recognising some things he thought creation passages are in fact references to the Flood.
The argument from authority. He is using intuition to assume he met the creator and that an old book foretold the future which is used by a hippy to believe he has experienced the universe.
He uses reason and logic when doing science. His science is reliable his intuition is not.
Trying to convince us his intuition is more reliable because he studied science is fundamentally dishonest manipulation.
He can demonstrate his scientific findings, he simply asserts his intuitions about religion.
You simply assert your intuitions based on your religion.
@åkajshaksjdå hæ
Not an argument.
Robin Edwards what you said is pretty much the contemporary definition of Atheism if we look at people like Richard Dawkins, Peter Atkins , this video is just his personal testimony, it may be suggestive. It’s not meant to force Christianity down your throat.
You obviously haven’t seen the debate between him and Peter Atkins
