Can Science Explain Everything? John Lennox & James Tour | Age of the Earth, Evolution & God 

Indeed. They covered many excellent topics & provided excellent info.

Looking forward to seeing your take on this 🫡

How many vids for your own channel do you think you’ll get from their video?

hey man, your videos turned me over.. i am now returning to my christian faith from an absence of almost a decade..

No not really

Was that english?

@@paulthompson9668 We look forward to your version

Why do you believe that? They're arguing against a straw man, _"can science explain everything?"_ which requires they ignore known limits which _science itself_ tells us about the limit of knowledge -- you know, like the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle? That's a limit to knowledge: we can't know both the exact location and speed of a particle simultaneously. What's the sensible takeaway? Well science tries to step us closer to truth (the set of facts about reality) by relying on evidence (detections of reality), because evidence is our only reliable way of knowing anything. So the correct way of phrasing it isn't that science can know everything (we just saw it can't). The correct statement would be _science will allow us to know everything which can be known._ It's impossible for that to be untrue. By that I mean if you can show some new method science doesn't know which reliably indicates truth -- if you could do that then by definition science would expand to include that method as "evidence", because you'd have shown you were detecting reality accurately! Note the focus of theist conversations around this question is *NEVER* them proving they (a) have some alternative demonstrably-reliable method of knowing things science doesn't know and (b) proving their ideas using that alternate method. That's what tells us it's snake oil they're selling you.

…Blackman I have heard no evidence that there is no God. One day you will be saved. Trust me. Stay the course and keep listening. Believe me you will come around to the truth.

You named multiple deities all fiction. Religion is mythology. Fiction. You mention time through all of your life. Experiences time has always been present. Your dispute is with pseudoscience. Science is humans observing nature. Time is nature. KNOW time KNOW, nature. We experience time through our star the sun. Humans personify our star and their mythological stories. Our star the sun is day. Humans imagine mythological characters called deities. KNOW*KNOW day.

Belief is acceptance without knowledge. Knowledge is where we find FACTS. Belief is a brain disease. That causes irrational and illogical thinking. The remedy to the brain disease known as belief. Is to read more nonfiction. Dictionary. Encyclopedia. Put down the mythology and study linguistics. Put down the pseudoscience and study phonetics.

Hey bufoon you do know that both of these frauds are pro Israel right?

@imad_mahmoud I'd be interested to know, as a Muslim what evidence presented here you find the most compelling. Also, have you heard of Nabeel Qureshi? Unfortunately, he passed several years ago, but was an excellent apologist and humble man, willing to engage with Muslims at length, as a former Muslim who became convinced of Christianity. Many of his debates and talks can be found on RU-vid. God bless.

​@@Adam_A_Christian I interacted with Nabeel on David Woods Acts 17 apologetics channel back in the days He was still with us. At the time I could feel his sincerity and his love for our creator and God. I look forward to his companionship in eternity, what a great man we all lost with his death.

@Adam_A_Christian indeed, Nabeel was so passionate and caring. The good Lord had his reasons for taking him so soon, but he is greatly missed by those he blessed with his ministry!

God bless you and your family.

I love the words of Chuck Missler on this. "The bible is an integrated message system from outside of our time domain" Man cannot possibly even write a 700 to 800 word essay that complies with the pattern of sevens found throughout the bible. Dr Ivan Pannin wrote 43,000 pages of information that proves the bible to be that integrated message system, which Chuck left no doubt with his video "sevens in the bible"

And, so good to hear that matter is a derivative of words… in the beginning was The Word! The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We beheld His glory

Yup. You're right.

It says God rested on the 7th day. But for the sabbath it does not say evening and morning and declare the 'day' ended. So do we become too ridged in defining 'day' in all cases as 24 hours?

Yes, I love hearing about their love for Jesus but Lennox sidesteps the creation story. It was undoubtedly 6 literal days and he talks about interpreting Genesis wrong but not the deep timers interpreting anything wrong or their assumptions.

Problem with that narrative is humanity trying to fit the supernatural God on human terms based on human experience and knowledge. Try to understand this - 1. Modern scientific cosmology and astrophysics concluded that Space, Time and Matter did not exist before the Big Bang 130 billion years ago. 2. Stephen Hawking, after failing to disprove singularity (ie the entire Universe was created out of nothing and before the Big Bang, there existed nothing), was forced to conclude that the initial Power that caused the Big Bang must have existed outside the universe we know. Because He was a committed Atheist, he proposed the idea of a “multiverse” instead of the most obvious - God. 3. When God created the heavens and the earth, He also created Time, Space and Matter. 4. God exists in Heaven (not the heavens) outside Space, Time and Matter. Space, Time and Matter - especially Time - does not limit God so that a Thousand years is like a day to God and a day is like a thousand years. The past, the present and the future is nothing to God so He is omniscient - He sees and knows everything before it happens, when it happens and after it happens. Space does not limit God so that He is everywhere at the same time all the time - His Omnipresence. Matter does not limit God so He can command the elements, multiply bread and fish, make Wine out of water, cause oil to flow from a jug without ending, raise the dead, heal the sick... Become a human being to enter the world He created... That is Jesus Christ, the Lamb slain from the creation of the world. Revelation 13:8 So what kind of day are we talking about. Being inspired by the Holy Spirit, the ancients came up with the Genesis narrative and Moses out down on paper. For God unlimited by the constraints of time, a day is not what His created universe understand it to be and certainly not what the earthly human know it to be. Therefore to take the creation story at literal face value would be a mistake because while it is possible for God to create everything in 7 Earth days, what He chose to do remains a mystery.

It is quite telling that these awestruck admirers of Brother Lennox and Tour are quick to praise them as "Christian scientists" but done of the repliers has called them Saints, or Men of GOD. The Truth be told, any Bible expositor, no matter his highly acclaimed scholastic credentials, who at this elderly stage of their "Christian walk"are still avowed infernalists, neither know The Scripture of Truth, nor the Power of The Holy Trinity to be The SAVIOUR OF the world. It one does not yet Know Christ Jesus as the Light of the world, the Way, the Truth and The Life Who hath abolished sin, guilt, condemnation, death, hell-fire and the grave, then they don't Know Him and He doesn't know them. But they SHALL for every knee Will bow and every tongue confess That JESUS Christ is The Lord of Life!!! Amen. We Love and Forgive All people everywhere by the Love shed abroad in Our Hearts by the Holy Ghost! Praise Them from Whom All Blessings flow!!!

Really, because even the Bible says miracles ceased when the last apostle died. You all don't even know your own book.

@@nathancook2852 It does? Where?

Which part of Lennox's work on group theory made him your favourite?

From my work with scientists I agree with you 100%. Well stated!

Or maybe they do know but you just can't handle that

When asked what must I do to be saved, what did Jesus reply?

In all due respect to these men of science and religion. Science will never be a reliable avenue or path to the Knowledge of the Truth. We, the truly Called of GOD, Walk by Faith not by sight, ( scientific observation or theory) for the things that scientists think they see are temporal and therefore illusory. The Things We can't see with the body's eyes 👀 are ETERNAL and therefore Real. The eyes of flesh see only the outer form and no form endures. The Eye 👁️ of Faith Sees the Substance and Evidence of Spiritual Reality, Light, Life, Liberty, Love, Joy and Peace Everlasting! However there will be no faith or science in the Glory of Heaven, but only the Wondrous Awareness of the Oneness of Eternal and Infinite Being!

@@waynesumner1829 I couldn’t agree more.

@@The.Adept.Chamber I wasn't sharing an opinion. Everything stated was clear, concise, and true.

@@michaels7325 1. The Logical not the Logical Fallacy (including your Hasty Generalization and Strawman arguments about the "exact" contents of the Quran). 2. You are welcome to your opinion, even if I do not share it with you. 3. Read the Bible and the Quran and tell the Truth (if you dare).

Time as we know it did not exist before the fourth day when the constellations, stars, great and lesser lights were placed in the firmament. On the seventh day God preceded to rest from his creative works. The seventh day has never ended. We are still in the seventh day. After Israel left Egypt and they were in the wilderness some of the people, due to lack of faith, were told they would not enter into YHWH’s rest.

He even told His criticizers; the story of Lazarus and the Rich man

There's a verse in Quran (Islam) stating why God stopped sending materialistic miracles (as known by earlier ages). This does not mean that miracles or signs have stopped, but people cannot detect with their hearts and minds because of normalization of habits. Moving a hand is a miracle for instance. Quoting one verse from Quran: And nothing has prevented Us from sending signs except that the former peoples denied them. And We gave Thamud the she-camel as a visible sign, but they wronged her. And We send not the signs except as a warning.

What's amazing about Christianity is that it's based on a historical event. The accounts of the Quran, of Buddha and other religions (whose earliest writings come several hundred years after any witnesses would've died) could be told relative to any time or place and function the same. Not so with Christ. If the resurrection didn't happen, we Christians are fools to be pitied over anyone else. Yet as Lennox pointed out, the entire field of scholarship on the Bible agrees to several key facts as a matter of historical record based on the attestation of the scriptures, even the atheist scholars agree: Jesus lived. He died on a cross. He was buried. He left behind an empty tomb. Most of them agree there's also enough evidence in the gospels that his disciples and over five hundred eye witnesses believed to have seen the risen Christ. All but one of the apostles willingly faced brutal executions, rather than recanting their testimony that they had personally seen the risen Jesus.

*The remaining Apostle (John) lived out his days in peace, farther afield, dying of old age on the Aisle of Patmos, thus escaping martyrdom.

The message of Jesus's resurrection spread so fast, there must have been many witnesses.

@@romanpankratow8301 There were two, so that doesn't follow, and zombies are not real, dont care if a million people say they are

Answers in Genesis explains this as well as any ministry of Scientists who believe the Bible. It's very disappointing how many great people , academically speaking, have been duped by the enemy in this area. If adopted to logical thinking....it destroys not only Genesis 1-11....but in fact the whole Bible and of course the Gospel. If Sin and death did not come through one man as the Bible clearly claims...then Sin does not exist and therefore no saviour of mankind is required or could even be conceived of. This is very dangerous theory.

No, it's more than possible. Lennox is a dishonest arrogant old fool at this stage. I don't share his religion and I don't share his appetite for lying about science.

Tour isn't much better.

The Bible is pretty good at explaining the importance of self-control. Proverbs 25:28 says - "Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control." The people whose primary focus in life is to go out and party would do well heeding that verse.

If the King James Translation authors had not failed to Capitalize the pronouns of Deity in their otherwise faultless Translation, They would have written the "after His Kind" and Their Kind and Us and Our Image and Likeness phrased in Genesis One in the Upper Case, and that would have dramatically revolutionized the interpretation of The True Creation! His and Their Kind , referring to GOD and or The Holy Trinity and the plural Us and Our of verse 26 are Spirits. So the only Things He or They could have possibly created would have been Eternal Spirit Beings, not transitory, corruptible perishable mortal physical bodies of flesh, blood and bone! And how can THAT Which and They Whom That had Always Been, have "a beginning"? If one tries to make reasonable, sane sense of Genesis as Moses supposedly wrote it, he will be as confused as a termite in a yoyo! LOL 😂😆
