I didn't expect to see a 40 min video on my book. Thank you for reading my book and sharing it with your audience! May the Lord be glorified through your work and my book! Your additional insights are much welcome, and I'm glad you enjoyed the book this much.
Also, you're right in that I'm not a doctor. I just added it to my username in middle school because I thought it was cool and it's stuck with me since haha
Thank you spreading the truth!
You identify as a Dr. 😁😁
@@Scheereddzz thank you for spreading the truth and helping the boys
Where can I buy your book it seems interesting 🤔🧐

First we overlook evil.
Then we permit evil.
Then we legalize evil.
Then we promote evil.
Then we celebrate evil.
Then we persecute those who still call it evil.

Well said Dwight.
@Doctor-Stoppage is there really good and bad or is there just what is?
Can you give an example of how this applies to this decade? And in addition to that, what decade had the best morals, according to your view?
@@AbOveandBeOnd1 idk what they mean by this. Sounds like a bunch of tin foil hat buzz feed nothings. Jesus could be the anti christ playing the part of the righteous and we wouldnt know any better.
@@eboss_900_2There definitely is good and evil. It just has specifics. For example killing is evil, however self defense is not evil. The act of violence however is if evil even if its just.
Christian masculine leaders are so needed right now, thank you

@@AK_Catholic_Traditional *Orthodox
The guy is not a Christian leader just because he made his opinions public.
@@AK_Catholic_Traditional
😂 Catholicism and protestant Christianity is a joke.
Orthodox Christianity seems like the better Christian religion.
I am so happy there is a movement of young men like us who are christian who are also cultivating physical strength
💪🏽
Amen!

It’s not really a new thing
Getting a normal job or trade will make you stronger. Jesus was a carpenter, when there wasnt power tools
I've seen this dude on the internet/tik tok and had no idea he was a Christian. This is awesome. We need strong, Christian men. Now.
He is not a Christian he doesn’t have the Holy Spirit which is the proof of being one more than 90% of so called Christians will actually be in hell he is strong physically but in the realm of the spirit he is a babe the physical realm is nothing but rotten flesh I recommend listening to prophet Lovy ,passion Java or uebert angel that’s what real Christianity is,these people just want to look cool quote on quote saying that they are Christians when they are not greetings my dear friend ❤
Me either I thought he was all about Greek and Roman philosophical teachings (Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Epicurus, Seneca, and so on.)
@@domanicvaldezthose are compatible with Christianity, read Augustine and Thomas Aquinas
@@user-xh6mx8kq5lThere is a strong chance they are in Heaven since they were seeking God their whole life.
Before Jesus, for the Pagans - there was different way to God.
Now there’s only One.
Christianity is a Greco-Roman religion.
Greetings from Poland brothers in Christ. To all men currently going through it, I'v recently heard this saying: You paddle, the God will steer your boat. Whatever you do, your efforts will not go in vain. Truly a great video.
@collingoggins7589 Interesting, considering the early Christians rejoiced in being persecuted and killed for the sake of Christ.
You have a convoluted view because of the many liars out there who say good times are guaranteed if you have faith.
The only thing God is promising in the gospel is a relationship with Him through Jesus Christ that cannot be shaken.
It's not weak to have faith in God. it's weak and cowardly to be an agnostic who thinks we have no value.
Nothing good in this life is guaranteed except for the promise of salvation for all those who put their trust in Jesus Christ.
@@collingoggins75892 weeks ago you said you're trying to find God. The way to find Him is right before you right now; Jesus knocks at the door and invites you to join the family of God, and grant you eternal life as a gift.
You must believe that He died, was buried, and rose from the dead according to the scriptures, and you will be saved.
Jesus died on the cross to take away your sin.
Our best deeds are like filthy rags before God and we have all rebelled against Him in our own selfishness. But Jesus took your place and His righteousness will be placed upon you if you believe, and God will treat you as if you lived the perfect life of His Son.
Pozdrawiam brata w Chrystusie

@janmuda3482 I love that. Thank you brother, see you in heaven with the Lord!!!!

@@SwoleSlim Revelation 3:9, better be sure who is who in the Bible or you will be burnt by the fires of Moloch. Careful.
Those who killed Jesus still persecute your race today and literally spit on you for being Christian. They believe Christ is burning in excrement. Research the Talmud.
“You will seek me and find me, if you seek me with all your heart” -Jeremiah 29:13 ✝️❤️
I think Paul has the best saying of us before we are saved and when we realize Gods invisible attributes portrayed.
“no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one.””
Romans 3:11-12 ESV
@@TheProrage509 I always come back to this verse. It reminds me to remain humble in knowing that all man is fallible. Without Christ we are doomed.
@@MastarCheef1337 praise be to God salvations isn’t on our own accord but Christ.
How can you seek something with your heart if the bible says the heart is deceitful above all things? What if your heart leads you to mormonism? How do you be objective with what your heart is telling you? How do you know you're correctly interpreting what God actually wants?
Self care as a demonstration of gratitude is 🔥🔥🔥 glad this convo is happening.
Rus gotta do a pod with this dude man sometime.
Before each workout, say a brief prayer of gratitude. Gets your mind right.
I forgot. But I said an accidental prayer to finish my third rep on bench.
If your body is a temple for the holy spirit, run your five Ks. Do your push-ups. Stretch. You are maintaining the temple as you do so. Don't allow your body to be dilapidated.
⭐ AMEN❗ Christian Men have a DUTY to maintain their Body .... that is THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT LIVING WITHIN THEM❗ EVERYTHING about a Christian Man ought to be TOP NOTCH ❗⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The point of Paul is that the church, the body of believers are the temple of God. Individual's body is part of the temple of God, but not a whole temple.
I agree that working out is good but I don't see many spiritual benefits to it.
@@dimitartodorov4826 I thought so for awhile to- but then I had a youth pastor ask for my advice on how to get fit. His reasoning being "How can I as a pastor tell LGBTQ identifying people to treat their bodies responsibly as a fat pastor?". We are equal parts body and soul. The body will wither and die, and that's why the soul takes more importance. But to neglect the body is giving into either gluttony or sloth and neither are acceptable. That's my understanding of it anyways.
I now have a whole lot more of respect for this guy…just thought he was a random tik toker now I know he is in fact a brother in Christ! God bless you and may God bless America ❤️🇺🇸
Why would you have less respect for someone Who isnt a brothers of christ, I'm a non believer but still resonate with alot of the words he says. I take care of my body and those around me, or at least I try to. I like the morals and lessons in Bible and live by them all tough I've never read the Bible.
I mean a random tiktoker can have a lot of character and great advice as well. He doesn't have to be someone of Christ to help others. Ofcourse moest random tiktokers don't send this message but that doesn't necessarily mean they're bad.
Well the more I get to know someone the more I respect what they have to say. I take heed to my parents’ advice more than my friends. That’s all; no judgment whatsoever.
Have a great day and God bless you.
@@roelofdoornebosch6149 No matter if you're Christian or not. I'm also not a Christian guy but several ideas of Christianity are present in my religion as well so I respect Christianity and also follow the Bible and thus I can say that I'm a Christian as well!
@@demongamerz4260You literally said you’re not a christian
My father was raised by YMCA and they were big proponents of muscular christianity. That we grow stronger in faith byt engaging in physican exercises
My father and I used to go to the YMCA together years ago. It’s sad how they no longer spread the gospel.
@@Scheereddzz Yea thye are now multi religious. Even my father stoped spreading it when i was younger. As all good things have to coem to an end
@@ScheereddzzIt's because the jews took them over with the help of sodomites
@@MilesDei95Times must end for new ones to be reborn...it is in our power to bring those "good times" back
@@GloryFit that is truth
This Christian Brother has excellent vocabulary.
Thankyou for the verses and quotes from the saints, God bless you brutha! ☦︎
I've been going to church off and on for all my life. I have never heard the correct interpretation of turn the other cheek and the cloak reference as well. Very good work.
Yeah I really appreciate him explaining that, I was always conflicted about that one.
The interesting thing about "the correct interpretation" of a Bible verse is everyone has it.
@@ryanrevland4333 Someone is wrong or everyone is wrong pertaining to their interpretation.
This is right on time. Thank you and thank you Jesus.
Yea no oral sex it's against the law of God stay out the vag until marriage don't jerk it either
Amen
I thank God for what he has shown me through this video amen brother
This content is genuinely helpful. I (for example) hate it when people just say: 'Stop being prideful, it's bad', without diving into how and why.
I really like how you uncover these topics so deeply man.
Will definitely pick up the book for myself some time in the future.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Mr.Scheereddzz, have you ever viewed any of Giga OvGod's YT content? I thought of him when you mentioned maintaining a day of rest. He trains very intensely and diligently, six days a week.
And he uses his channel to witness to the public.

The prayer at the end was just amazing. Your faith is very beautiful... truly inspiring
Thank you for this scheereddzz! Im writing a thesis on Christian masculinity and this is a Diamond in the rough! I will definitely be buying this book!
Regarding Christian masculinity, definitely check out the life of King St. Alfred the Great. A wonderful, lovely, God-fearing man.
Also, please also look into the various writings of St. Isaac the Syrian, St. John of Damascus, and also St. Nicodemus the Hagiorite. They all wrote at times on godly manliness.
@@HickoryDickory86 Thank you, I will definitely research these!
@@_CORVUS For King St. Alfred, a great biography is _The White Horse King_ by Benjamin Merkle. Reads almost like a novel.
I played the video, and shared it with family and friends even before the video ended. So good and powerful. This is the content we really need to be consuming. Thank you, and God bless you!
Beautifully well put
WOAHHH!!! Bro I did NOT know you were a Believer dude. That’s fire. God Bless you. Glad to be your brother in Christ 👊🏽
Praises be to the lord most high! Thanks for being such a boon to your community shreddz.
I remember when Paul was showing me the first drafts of what he was writing and just how utterly profound his writing style was, I haven't finished the book yet (school, bleh) but I am always excited when i find the time to sit down and read the next chapter. I'm very glad that you brought some much needed publicity to my friends work, and also glad that this caused me to find your channel as it is quite good. You and Paul should do some YT collabs, it would be sick.
Very cool of you to review this book. I got to see some behind the scenes on its creation and to see the hard work that went into the book, be enjoyed by others is so awesome.
A lot of value in there! Clear, understandable, passionate speech. Thank you!
You gotta keep going brother in christ we are with you in this, those who have ears to hear, let them hear.
Thank you for the video, brother. I appreciate you doing such a good analysis of this great book.
God bless you all keep on keeping on.
Wow, no ads interrupting the video every 5 minutes, talk about practicing what you preach, truly. Thank you for putting this together brother. I found it so enlightening that I made a new groupchat for 4 of my buddies and sent it to them. Bravo
I’m only one minute in and I am already struck at how honest this man is
I've been waiting for a video like this
Amen, thank you for this video.
The prayer at the end was the cherry on top of a wonderfully explained video. Amen brother 🙏🏾
I know that your audience is primarily for young men, but I think this applies to women as well. I, as a women, can suffer from many illness if I don't take care of my body, like osteoporsis, a disease that effects women more than men. I don't know if everyone should aspire to be a bodybuilder, but everyone should aim to be at a healthy body weight.
Women should lift as much weight as naturally possible just as men should. It protects them from osteo as you've said but it also protects them from sarcopenia, it makes your body create more bone marrow so more blood cells.
Not everybody should idolize self and body image but the life that God has given us. God before we were born molded us and created a life for us to live according to his will.
@@TheProrage509 I don’t think his message is about idolizing one’s body
But to have discipline and structure in order, when it comes to the temple that God gave you. Your body.
A well deserved review
Indeed
The book is truly an amazing and well articulated piece, so much to learn and so many things challenged my understanding.
May god bless you
This discussion is desperately needed in the church and in the world right now. Thank you my brother.
Love this guy
I have never heard of this book before but that was a phenomenal analysis! For sure going to have to check it out myself, thank you for sharing such inspiring wisdom!
Got a minute into the video and already paused it to go buy the book. Now I’m gonna finish the video before I read it
A buddy of mine sent this to me last night. I’ve been looking for more on the masculine perspective of Christianity to share with the men of my church. Thank you for this. Thank the Lord for the wisdom and strength He has given you to share this so effectively and truthfully.
TH-cam algorithm coming in strong. Had never heard of this book or your channel. I’m now subscribed to DrUpauli and Scheereddzz. Looking forward to learning more. This really resonates with me. Thank you!
Although I’m not Christian, these teachings are excellent portrayals of the nature of human life and the universe. Useful and inspiring perspectives for anyone to improve their life
It’s never too late to change your ways and start following the Truth in Christ Jesus Almighty on the Narrow Path
Best video I’ve ever seen, 11/10. I’m really grateful for the effort you have put in making it bro 💪🏼
This is such an important video, thank you for sharing this message!
It always bothered me seeing pastors that were massively overweight, preaching spirituality. It's like, "my brother in Christ, how can you be spiritual, with no discipline or self control?"
Gluttony can’t be ignored
True. How can you understand spiritual things, when you can't even understand what you see in front of the mirror?
Like a dentist with rotten, crooked teeth.
This was brilliant, thanks for making this video. It sure helps paint a clearer picture of how to live as a Christian man during these murky times. Subscribed.
Been waiting for this one to drop
Amen brother, exactly the morning video every man needs.
Absolutely incredible. Buying this book right now. Thank you for sharing
Inspiring book! Couldn’t put it down and almost read the whole thing in one day!
Literally Aristotle talking about muscular Christianity, never expected this, lol. Great video.
How awesome that THIS is the first video I see of yours. Youre gonna be a huge force for good, i just know it!
Thanks for the encouraging words brother.
The point in overcoming or "rising above" competition, so to speak, is to focus Man's hearts and minds to working together!
Think I need to read that
God bless you in all your endeavors my brothers!
Amen I love you took the time to go over this bro.
Great video. Hands down one of the best sermons I’ve heard. Blessings brother.
Amen brother!Thank you for your sharing regarding Christianity especially in today's society where people are getting swayed from the right path.I hope that you would keep on preaching the word of God and always remember that He listens to His children who spreads his word to others💪💪
Thank God and thank you this video and your words have givin me alot to think about and to meditate on. May God bless you and everyone who listens so we may be closer to God.
Awsome video brother, may God strengthen you and your family with love , temerance , and virtue
Great video! Loved your in depth analysis of the book with your own interpretation. Stay blessed and keep them coming. 🙏🏼
Let's go
Im so happy to see so many people making content on these issues.
extreamly based, very proud of you.
This was a really good video, man! We need more like it for today’s men.
God Bless you brother. God Bless the man who wrote this book. I couldn't help but sit and listen. It's been a while since I have been to gym because I have been in a bad place in life. I feel so much more invigorated. I need this book to help fuel my faith.
God bless you brother Schreds. Very insightful and wisdom filled video
This was great.
watched this from the treadmill, awesome message amen 🙏♡

Ayo
Amazing 🙏🔥
What a golden little nugget this was. Thank you for putting this out there!
Good stuff bro. Perfect thing to listen to while I do my rehabilitation exercises for an injury I got. Slow and steady wins the race
Great review. Makes me want to read the book. Thank you for sharing this.
Thx, Bro!
Amen brother, thank you so much for sharing this. I needed to hear this so bad. I was just tempted to give into my flesh and I was able to resist, but thought about giving into the temptation later tonight. This video helped to strengthen me and reminded me that I must say no to my flesh and yes to God!! I am subscribing to this channel. I pray that God will bless you and this channel. I pray that your walk with Him will not be compromised.
Terrific video. Thank you so much.
What an inspiring book. It should be promoted in schools. I’ve thought for some time young people need positive, strong role models who promote traditional values, especially in current times where part of the ‘agenda’ seems to be to emasculate men and confuse them.
beautifully put, your interpretations of this book are so raw and almost storytelling that is going to have to give it a read 😂😂 God bless you
Thank you brother, I really needed that message/ amen 🙏🏻
The type of video I need!! Thanks and God bless ✝️
A good example of Muscular Christianity can also be seen in people like Manny Pacquiao , in all his time boxing he has never uttered foul language to anyone , always puts God first and helps his community and church. we should all strive to be good Christians in heart, soul, mind and body.
Great video brother it really helped me in my understanding of fitness in Christianity and also the other topics that you talked about, amazing video. Praise the Lord 🕊❤️🔥
This video helped me a lot, man, thank you.
Thank you for this my brother god bless you🤝🙏
Solid bro! Definitely buying this book.
Thank you Ceasar very cool
Amen. Thank you.
Thanks you so much for talking about this ❤ much love to y’all and god bless
Bro I thought you were just a tik tok fitness guy but you are Christian too that is great to see! Keep making content like this it's helpful for young guys like me to see that this path is one that is better even though society is so against it. I should be giving a short talk about biblical masculinity at my University soon so I will be buying that book and tweaking my talk a lil. Since it sounds like it would have some good stuff for me
That you exist gives me hope for the human race.
Thanks for the effort that you put in your work to helping others! God bless you 🤝
Brother, I loved this video. The history you went into during it made me think about looking at the Bible from a different perspective. Not simply what the words mean from my view, but what they meant at the time. It was eye-opening. The Book Club is great, and I’m happy to be apart of it.
Our bodies are temple of God. Taking care of it is our responsibility
