Yeshua(Jesus) the Christ loves you! Praise YHWH El Shaddai and may He bless you! Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords! (YHWH - the LORD) (El Shaddai - God Almighty) To those who haven’t; Repent of your sins and believe on the Adon Jesus the Christ, believe in your heart that He has died for your sins and rose from the tomb on the third day and you shall receive the Holy Spirit of God and He shall dwell within you. You shall be saved. Be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! - Jesus the Christ loves you, praise YHWH our Elohim - Evidence for Jesus Christ’s existence, crucifixion, and disappearance from the tomb (He rose from it): The Lord Jesus Christ did exist, gathered disciples, and was crucified and went missing from the tomb. To argue about wether He was taken from the grave or rose from it, is an argument a skeptic can make. Because well if you disregard the eye witness testimony of the disciples and there willingness to die for Christ, and humans won’t die for something they know is a lie, when Peter is pinned upside down to that cross, he could have said that it was a fake, but He didn’t because it wasn’t, what care would he have about death in this world if he knew for a fact he had assurance of a life in another, Jesus Christ did rise from the tomb and is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Now the evidence for the Lord Jesus Christ’s existence really isn’t hard to find a multitude of non-Christian scholars and historians mention Him within 150 years after the time of His life. One such is Tacitus a Roman historian who reported on emperor nero’s decision to blame the Christians for the fire that had destroyed rome in 64 AD. Tacitus wrote: “Nero fastened the guilt ... on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of ... Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judaea, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome…” In this Tacitus makes reference to not only Christians, but Christ calling Him Christus and confirming the Gospels going on to say that He suffered the extreme penalty (crucifixion) under the reign of Tiberius and by the sentence of Pontius Pilate, which like I said confirms the Gospels narrative. Another important source of evidence about Jesus and early Christianity can be found in the letters of Pliny the Younger to Emperor Trajan. Pliny was the Roman governor of Bithynia in Asia Minor. In one of his letters, dated around A.D. 112, he asks Trajan's advice about the appropriate way to conduct legal proceedings against those accused of being Christians. Pliny says that he needed to consult the emperor about this issue because a great multitude of every age, class, and sex stood accused of Christianity. At one point in his letter, Pliny relates some of the information he has learned about these Christians: “They were in the habit of meeting on a certain fixed day before it was light, when they sang in alternate verses a hymn to Christ, as to a god, and bound themselves by a solemn oath, not to any wicked deeds, but never to commit any fraud, theft or adultery, never to falsify their word, nor deny a trust when they should be called upon to deliver it up; after which it was their custom to separate, and then reassemble to partake of food - but food of an ordinary and innocent kind.” This passage provides a number of interesting insights into the beliefs and practices of early Christians. First, we see that Christians regularly met on a certain fixed day for worship. Second, their worship was directed to Christ, demonstrating that they firmly believed in His divinity. Furthermore, one scholar interprets Pliny's statement that hymns were sung to Christ, "as to a god", as a reference to the rather distinctive fact that, "unlike other gods who were worshipped, Christ was a person who had lived on earth." If this interpretation is correct, Pliny understood that Christians were worshipping an actual historical person as God! Of course, this agrees perfectly with the New Testament doctrine that Jesus was both God and man. You may have heard of the scholar Flavius Josephus who mentioned James as being the brother of the Lord Jesus Christ, which matches what Paul said calling James “The Lord’s brother” and there is another document that Josephus may have written which goes: “About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man. For he ... wrought surprising feats.... He was the Christ. When Pilate ...condemned him to be crucified, those who had . . . come to love him did not give up their affection for him. On the third day he appeared ... restored to life.... And the tribe of Christians ... has ... not disappeared.” Now it’s up to debate wether this is the entirely original document of what Josephus wrote, or if a Christian had edited it. But regardless he wrote about the Lord Jesus Christ. Wether it was negative or positive like the possible document is. Anyways there are many other statements, documents, letters, and writings of all sorts from the ancient world talking about the Lord Jesus Christ and there is not one question if He was a real person or if He was crucified and went missing from the grave. That is clear as day, He is a real person, was crucified, and went missing from the grave. And He did rise from the grave. And for more evidence of the Lord Jesus Christ, there’s the Bible and you see there is no evidence the Bible is corrupted, a lie, created by the Roman government, folktale. It is the recount of the Disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, now wether you want to believe it is up to you. And what profit was there in spreading Christianity, All the early Christian suffered persecution, beatings, and were killed. Another Scholar reported that James the Lord’s Brother was thrown off a building and then stoned to death for spreading the Gospel in Jerusalem. These people went to great lengths even giving their own lives for the Adon Jesus the Christ.

@@LuisSierra42? that's actual jokes. P.s Griffy got fat never once said it was a good thing and now he goes to gym. Dude frustration and facts comes from experience.
As someone who was 420 lbs last year, but am now 350, I can say just putting in a little work and having a different mindset can really change things for someone. Don't be too hard on someone, but also don't support them destroying themselves. Be the change you want. :)
ik yt community guidelines be wylin but outta sheer curiosity is this comment based off of any actual example of moderation? while RU-vid panders to socially liberal ideas, i think there's like a gradient of liberal politics that people (usually of opposite social beliefs; not necessarily the og commenter) and ppl often mistake media to be at the extreme end of the gradient simply because there's a loud, yet minor population of social media users who are overly critical about our social stigmas (even those who some may argue are valid). i haven't seen any instances of yt actually weighin in on fat shaming though
@kurogikuzuzuki9790 woah woah woah, an original and thought provoking comment under a Longbeachgriffy video? Naw get that shi outta here we dont do that here
We need to bring shame back. Body positivity. Fetishes. "Alternative" lifestyles. People actively flirting with death. Then expect normal folk, who handle their issues, to feel sorry and help them, later. People can call me a hard ass all they want. But you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.
Strigidae Strigiformes Nah, shame doesn't make people change unless they're built to change from shame, which depends on how you came up. Different things work for different people lmao. Also all that other shit you talking is literally fine lol, go to church if you're feeling so old
"I bully myself cause I make me do what I put my mind to.” - Eminem More people should take that to heart. There's nothing cool, fun, exciting, unique, innovative, or sexy about complacency.
Recently met up with an old friend who is potentially pushing 400 lbs and has absolutely no idea. I parked my car and got out, she in the passenger seat shifted and *moved the fucking car.* She immediately assumed I forgot to put the car in park and just got out of a car that was still running ... she might have no idea how big she is. We went to the desert and she kept complaining how unbearably hot it was at 78° and couldn't understand why I was fine. I asked her if she really wanted to know, and explained she weighs more than 3 of me. Then I was a bitch for the rest of the day. Some of these people I truly believe they have no idea how big they are.
You're a good person and friend even if she doesn't think so I wish more people called me out on that or something similar when I was younger I had no idea my posture was so bad until someone told me Still struggling now
Nope, I can't do it. I'm always worried I'll break my car. I want a 996 Porsche next. You must be in shape to ride with me. People are so large now, we actually need suvs/trucks because a normal civic isn't meant to carry 4 people that large.
As a big nigga this doesn’t offend me, it only offends mfs who on that “it’s okay to be fat” shit. I agree with the idea of loving yourself and where you are currently but wanting better for yourself and slowly achieving it. It’s not okay to be fat, and sometimes it’s your circumstances that make you, but it’s your job to change for the better. Get out yo feelings and be real with yoself 💯
Man, I've never been overweight, but I've also never been in excellent shape. Anytime I see someone overweight going for a jog or pumping iron, I find it super motivating. So many overweight people have totally transformed their lives and aren't just skinny, but they're running marathons and entering weight lifting competitions. That shit is amazing.
Many people who are overweight just have amazing drive, it started as a drive to eat and they interchange that addiction for an addiction to exercise which is much healthier
@@cambearieyeah, changing one addiction for another. we can say they are similar to people who discover religion due to substance abuse. Nothing wrong with that, of course.
Yea, too much cardio is actually bad, but if you balance it with weights, you doing yourself a big solid. I sorta think the same when I see large people going out on their bicycles too; I know most folks will smirk under their breathe watching them ride, but I think that they are making an effort, and they'll get what they want if they stay consistent, F the haters.
I'm telling you, being called fat is what drove my overweight ass to the gym. I can't stand what being honest to a person has turned into now. I'm glad people were real with me; it made me tougher mentally and saved me from a life of medication and unhealthy food choices
@waleakpan6178 is bro your upstairs neighbor or something what do you care how he lives lol. As long as he isn’t out there telling kids obesity isn’t real he can be as healthy or not as he wants, just don’t go making it other peoples problem
@@SusancreamwoodFound one what? If bro wants to ruin his life let him, not like you have any other choice. Why waste your time being mad at shit other people do that doesn’t affect you, as long as you’re staying healthy you’re all good brother
As a heavier guy I'm well aware of my issues. Body positivity is good, and dare I say necessary, when you're a healthier weight. It should never be used as an excuse to be unhealthy.
@@DE3P_Beatsthe amount of times I go shopping and tell the store associate that I am uninterested in buying certain items (jeans, etc) until I get back down to a healthy weight, and they proceed to respond with, “oh girl, love yourself as you are. It’s ok to get a bigger size.) ma’am, I will never care enough to shed the pounds if I continuously cater to myself at a bigger weight. OR my favorite, “eat everything on your plate since there’s starving kids out there”. NOPE. not anymore. one of the best decisions I’ve ever made was to start eating when I am hungry, and stop eating when I am no longer hungry. not full, just no longer hungry. there is so much more power in saying it’s not okay where I’m at, and to work towards where you want to be. 200lbs for a 5 ft 6 in woman is NOT healthy. I hate that people will encourage obesity as if it’s not a precursor to diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.
@@DE3P_Beats I think it should just mean that you love your body. Like.. maybe you have a bit of a long face or something or stuff you can't change Like maybe you have wider hips than you'd like. But you shouldn't feel bad about that. Not that you should be "well I'm fat and it's my right!"
"You brought shame to your health. You're a heath shamer, shamer". On point. There is no body positivity to be found here. Only neglectful obesity. Of course, society will be happy to pay for the bypass and health issues connected to it.
Fact: World's heaviest man died at 1400lbs, aged 41, year of 1983. He was born overweight in 1941 and was obese by age 12 at 294lbs. However, it was said he exercised and cut his food intake to almost nothing and still retained enough excess body fluid to cause heart and respiratory complications. I believe he was a *very* rare case of someone desperate to lose weight yet unable to. Not enough people take care of themselves despite having no medical reasons preventing it, which I'm sure is frustrating for others who genuinely struggle to maintain their health.
I was obese as a kid and didn't do anything to address the problem until I was given a reality check in middle school by a bunch of other kids. Some people might call it bullying, but it was exactly what I needed to get my shit together and take the initiative to care for my health. I got to rub it in their faces that I had a massive glow up. I got to finally experience true self love and self respect, and I built healthy foundations for the rest of my life. It was a triple win and I'll forever be thankful to all my judgemental, angsty adolescent peers for putting fire under my ass to take control back over my health and my life.
I had migraines from high bad cholesterol and had to take pills at 12 just like my dad had to at 40, and we made it a father son activity. Talk about morbid
Though I’m glad that you were able to change your life for the better; Not everyone reacts to that kind of feedback the same way though, so it’s not a good thing to encourage people treating overweight/obese people in the way those people treated you. In fact, I’d go as far to say as your type of reaction is in the minority. If all obese kids in school reacted to bullying the way that you did, believe me when I say there would be no obese kids in existence, because I guarantee you 99.999% of obese kids are getting treated that way on the regular. The overeating of comfort foods, (which is what usually causes obesity in children) often happens because of psychological issues like stress, trauma, depression, etc. Issues that make the person feel depressed, worthless, etc. Guess what happens when that person is degraded, bullied, etc by their peers? It just adds to what they’re already feeling. They eat more, and stay fat or get even fatter. Only a tiny percentage of people are able to use that feeling as motivation to make a real change. Don’t get me wrong, I’m against what the “body positivity” movement has become and think “fat positivity” is abhorrent…but calling obese people by the names of animals…or otherwise treating them as not worthy of human decency 9 times out of 10 does NOTHING but make the person hurling out the insults get an ego boost. You don’t know what people are going through, so it’s never ok to treat people like that regardless of what they look like. But at the same time, this whole “positivity” movement has gone way too far and instead of asking to be treated like flawed human beings like everyone deserves….they instead have gone to the point of saying that people have to find obese people beautiful, that obese people can be healthy, or that it’s ok to be “ok” with being obese without actively trying to make a change. That is also unacceptable and a toxic mindset, imo.
I used to run track. When COVID hit, I stopped running and I ended up getting way out of shape. I gained over 50 pounds. I was nowhere near these 600lb life type people, but I was also so far from my prime that I felt like one of those 600lb life people anyway. Eventually I got tired of not liking what I was seeing in the mirror, knowing that when people saw me in public they definitely weren't attracted to me, etc., and I started working out again. In a few months I lost the vast majority of the weight I gained. I feel way better physically and mentally. To anyone who's struggling with their weight, please don't fall into the trap of telling yourself you're fine and everyone else is the issue for not accepting you. You are not okay. Good news is, if you're capable of moving, you've pretty much got all the tools you need to fix things. Dedicate yourself to reaching your goal and I promise you'll make it there. Accept the discomfort that comes with it. You might feel like things are much harder for you because of your weight, but being overweight and working out to lose weight was actually far easier for me than being in my best shape ever and running track. You're going to have to struggle, but I promise you there's no part of the journey an ordinary person can't get through if they want to make it through. Believe in yourself and trust the process.
You kinda make it sound super easy. Its not super hard, but its not super easy either. it was easier for you because you've likely been in shape all/most of your life. your foundation is solid. your lungs, heart, etc are strong and healthy, just putting on 50lbs isn't gonna do much damage, if any at all in a short time. a morbidly obese person, especially one who has been big for most if not all of their life, is an entirely different story. even more so if they are hundreds of pounds over weight. Other than that, great post, very encouraging!
@@kisalperera2419but america spreaded it onto the world (as always). thanks for lgbtq, fat shaming and gender equality i guess 🤷♂️ (god damn i h4te it its spreading fast here in europe)
@@niklasholgerson3779 damn. Here in Sri Lanka it ain't that bad people of my generation are starting to accept these stupid concepts. Luckily the alpha sigma masculinity trend has caught up in the middle of it so people are now more than willing to hit the gym and get in shape 🌝✌️
It’s the consequence of an easy life where we can food made in 2 minutes and pay little money for it. It also doesn’t help they make the food as addictive as possible. But you know who’s winning in all this? The hospitals 🏥 😂
I just got down to below 190 lbs from starting at 243. I can't even imagine how anyone is able to move a muscle at over 300 lbs when I was struggling to breathe at just below 250 for years. 😳
I never understood fat shaming. As someone who was overweight myself, I found it to be a great motivator whenever people mentioned I gained weight or called me fat to actually do activities that helped me lose weight (stop eating fast food, go to the gym, counting calories). People that are sensitive about these issues are usually people not willing to put in the work to actually lead a healthier lifestyle or someone who has never been overweight themselves. Overcome your weaknesses and change your mentality!
Yeah, “fat shaming” went from “it’s not right to be mean to someone for being fat” to “don’t tell people they’re fat for being fat, it’s offensive, etc” It should stick to what it was initially about because people would get bullied and treated terribly due to being fat. Now, it’s just encouraging it’s OKAY to be fat when it’s not healthy, and if anyone says anything like “you should eat better and exercise” it’s insulting. That doesn’t make any sense.
But it's always a pendulum swing. The body positivity stuff is probably good for people, especially kids and teenagers, who are a little overweight but it always goes too far to the point where we are celebrating being obese. We don't want people to be obese, obviously, but we also don't want people to hate themselves because they're a little chubby
That’s the problem with society it’s always one extreme or the other there’s never a happy middle, and most good things and rationality exists in the middle 🤦♀️
I got to a point where my weight was really messing with my mental and physical health. Started eating right and working out. Changed me forever. Feel bad for people that don't have the mental discipline to change , . Start walking 🤷♂️ start walking till your tired. Then when when you're not tired , walk some more. Make it your daily challenge. Focus , get motivated to grow and reach new places physically and mentally . 😠
As a 280 lb guy going to the gym every day to get better, one time i met a girl twice my size, and she said that she loves herself, and if somebody wants her, it would be for his personality and not for ther body.. that was the most wtf moment in my life
Weight is about so much more than just the body though. Being in at least reasonable shape and a healthy BMI shows responsibility, self respect and dedication. It is incredibly easy to let yourself go and only takes a few extra tasty snacks here and there and sitting on your ass for longer and the weight can pile on . Staying in shape (especially after a certain age) is worthy of respect. Things that take more work are automatically more admirable than the easy road.
