I am an exmuslim, I just listened to all the videos of William Lane Craig. The speeches about God and Christianity are so logic and understandable, then I started reading bible. Finally I left Islam and converted to Christianity. I am so happy that I took a decision in my life. Thanks Jesus Christ for bringing love in my heart. And now I knew the true God. Amen amen ! 🙏

Dr. William Lane Craig, I appreciate your Answers to the Questions asked by several people. I listen to them all. I understood some of the questions I had which you have answered. Thank you. I am from a Hindu family - (Idol worshipers ). I found Christ , rather He found me When I was exposed to Bible verses while studying in a Christian school at the age of 19, and now I am walking with the Lord Jesus Christ praying to make me like Him in my attitudes and actions. I am 71 . God bless you and use you to many thousands who are struggling to find the Truth. Amen.

Miraculous Features of the Quran Prophesying the Future There is a chapter in the Quran which clearly prophesizes a future event. The name of the chapter is Ar-Rum and it starts with verses, which state that Byzantines were defeated in a war, but would defeat their enemy later. These verses were revealed in around 616, shortly after the Byzantines were severely defeated by the idolater Persians. In this war, the loss of Byzantines was so severe that it was almost impossible for the Byzantines to survive. Additionally, the Byzantine Empire had other enemies such as Avars and Slavs. Because of these facts, the Arab idolaters of the era of Muhammad (PBUH) were of the view that the victory of Byzantines mentioned in these verses would never come true. Indeed, they were making fun of these verses. Later in 622, nearly six years after the revelation of those verses, Byzantines made a war against the Persian Empire and unexpectedly defeated their enemy. Thus, the Quranic verses prophesizing the victory of the Byzantines came true, which is an apparent Quranic miracle. The Scientific Miracles of the Quran In addition to touching on various issues, the Quran includes many miracles about diverse topics. Examples of those topics include the features of the Earth and the Sun, bone loss in old age, and the balance in the universe. Some of those miracles are discussed next. 1) The Development of the Fetus: The Quran discusses everything related to the development of fetus in detail: “Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging. Then We made the sperm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clot into a lump [of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the best of creators.” The order for this complex process is given in the Quran as 1) Al-Nutfah (drops of semen); (2) Al-Alaqah (a leech-like clot); (3) Al-Mudghah (a chewed flesh); (4) bone phase; (5) clothing with flesh (i.e., stage of having muscles), 6) phase of creation and ability to live, etc. (see also Yusuf Al-Hajj Ahmad’s work for the explanations of all the related verses ). The Quranic expressions of this process, which has not been understood until the 20th century, completely agree with the observations of modern embryologists. 2) Expanding Universe: It is stated in the Quran that the universe has been expanding. For many years in the history of science, it has been argued that the universe is endless or infinite, and it is scientifically proven that the universe is expanding. In 1929, American astronomer Edwin Hubble observed that telescopes and galaxies were moving away from each other, thereby proving that the universe is expanding. The fact that this scientific fact is reported in the Quran in an environment in which technology has been inadequate for such matters fourteen centuries ago shows that the Quran is not a product of the human mind. 3) Verses about Honey Bee: The Quranic verses about honey bee emphasizes the task of finding nest: “And your Lord inspired to the bee, "Take for yourself among the mountains, houses, and among the trees and [in] that which they construct.” A word in the Arabic language is spoken in different forms for males and females. There is a word used for females in the verses related to bees. So the female bee is emphasized in the above verse. Recent research has shown that only female honey bees work for the task of producing honey. Therefore, this verse informs us of a miracle about honey bees. 4) Mornings that Breathe: Plants take carbon dioxide and give oxygen to the air by performing photosynthesis. This process begins with the sunrise and hence during the times of the morning, photosynthesis is most intense at tree leaves and other plants. During these times, the atmosphere can be thought to breathe as if it is a living thing. The start of photosynthesis is miraculously implied in the following verse. “…And by the night as it closes in, and by the dawn when it breathes.” 5) The Atmospheric Pressure: Consider the following verse. “So whoever Allah wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islam; and whoever He wants to misguide - He makes his breast tight and constricted as though he were climbing into the sky. Thus does Allah place defilement upon those who do not believe.” Breathing gets harder as one ascends to the sky, the reason of which is explained as follows. The atmosphere has weight and pressure towards the Earth, and our body contains an internal pressure against this pressure. As one ascends to the sky, the air density decreases, which means that the atmospheric pressure drops. However, our internal pressure does not drop at the same rate. Besides, breathing becomes difficult due to the decrease in the oxygen rate. As a result, one’s breast becomes tight and gets constricted, as stated in the above verse. Note that in the era of Muhammad (PBUH), it was impossible to discover this fact because of the technological deficiency and hence the above verse should be viwewed as another apparent miracle. 6) Barriers between Seas: Scientific studies have shown that Mediterranean water is not mixed with the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, which has a very different salinity, and that there is a water barrier between these two different seas. A similar water barrier was discovered in the 1960s in the Mendep Bosphorus, where Aden Bay and the Red Sea joined together. Miraculously, this event is mentioned in the following verse: “He released the two seas, meeting [side by side]; between them is a barrier [so] neither of them transgresses.” In addition to the abovementioned miracles, the Quran includes miracles related to topics including but not limited to “creation in pairs”, “the orbit of the Moon and dependence on the Sun”, “heavens not supported by pillars”, “geoidal form of the world”, and “mountains as pegs”. The Nature of Certain Revelations The knowledge of the descent time of several revelations along with the reason why they were revealed is crucial in clearly observing the fact that Muhammad (PBUH) had no control over revelations. The Quran includes several verses revealed in response to the Prophet's and the believers’ (i.e., Muslims) attitudes in a particular situation. Consider the following example. “The Prophet frowned and turned away, because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting]. But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified, or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him? As for he who thinks himself without need, to him you give attention. And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.” In the above verses, Allah criticizes the Prophet’s attitude towards a blind Muslim who came to him to ask several questions about Islam, while he was in the middle of a discussion with an unbeliever of a higher class. When the blind man interrupted Muhammad (PBUH), he first asked the man to wait until the conversation ends. When the man insisted on talking to him immediately, the Prophet continued his conversation with the unbeliever. The point is that it is impossibly difficult for the Prophet to fabricate the above verses, which explicitly condemn his attitude towards the blind man during an ordinary conversation. In another verse, the Quran mentions the attitude of the believers of Muhammad’s era towards Allah: “[Remember] when they came at you from above you and from below you, and when eyes shifted [in fear], and hearts reached the throats and you assumed about Allah [various] assumptions.” The above verse is about the extremely hard situation of the Muslims during the war of Trench. In addition to being besieged by the Meccan idolaters, they faced the betrayal of the Jews living in Medina. Essentially, during this war, the entire Muslim community was likely to be destroyed. The verse reveals that, because of the severity of their situation, some Muslims had bad feelings towards Allah. Note that this verse should be considered as a response to the Muslims’ inner thoughts, which cannot be known externally. Due to the fact that they are in the form of response to Muhammad’s as well as the believers’ attitudes, the above verses can be viewed as another miraculous feature of the Quran. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kFAeJJNEhp4.html

Calling it “magic” isn’t the term I would use but the Big Bang theory shows us that there was a time before the laws of science existed. That the laws themselves were created, and so you could say that “magic” existed before then, but much more rationally you could say that God existed before then.

At that time very little was thought to be required for life on a planet, only two things I believe , and since then the plausibility of life on other planets has dropped dramatically with the discovery of more things essential to life on a planet. I wouldn’t regard space as complete chaos either. It’s beauty is beyond compare and it’s limitless bounds point to a limitless god.

Biblical inerrancy - a huge topic among people, they see so many divisions over doctrine, so many denominations, so many different interpretations of scripture - and the icing on the cake is that this book which people claim to be 'inspired by God' has errors and supposed contradictions. What I have told people is this: If Jesus/Yahusha is indeed the true God, then everything we have today, passed down through His prophets and scribes is sufficient for us, and we then must trust that He has preserved all the necessary truths we need to be led and to be taught by His Spirit. Yes indeed. God provides.

I will answer the first question. Imagine a genuine $5 bill from the bank in your right hand. Describing that bill you might say it's good currency. You may even say that it is the standard to measure all other $5 bills you come across in your dealings. Now in your left hand imagine a counterfeit $5 bill. How would you describe that? You could say it's bad currency. In fact you might even call it a source of evil. Here's the thing we all need to understand. Evil is not a thing, it is the corruption of a thing. Just as the counterfeit is a corruption of the genuine $5 bill so too is evil a corruption of good. Lies are a corruption of truth, rust is considered to be a corruption to metal etc. And to prove that evil is not a thing of itself, going back to my illustration of the $5 bill and the counterfeit. Remove the genuine $5 bill from existence. Can the counterfeit still exist without the genuine? No. Because there's nothing to corrupt. Now switch it up. Remove the counterfeit $5 bill instead. Can the genuine $5 bill exist without the counterfeit? Yes! Yes it can. Any evil in the world cannot disprove God, because evil is a corruption of something good. It cannot stand on its own. That's why evil presupposes Good and Good presupposes God. There would be no good unless there was a God. Because what we mean by good is God's nature.

Never limit the Sovereignty of God that if one shows a modicum of any faith towards God that God who is not limited by time nor space and is more than able to provide that one with both the placement in time and placement in the place of the world so they will hear the entire gospel of Jesus Christ. There is no salvation apart from Jesus Christ and there is no faith without hearing. Scripture tells us this explicitly. Romans 10:13-14 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? Sorry Dr. Craig, you may be an intellectual but you can't over intellectualize God and His word. He has been quite clear. God is not on trial. This Is His plan and we can't just change scripture just to make Him fit what we think is just. Read Job 38-42 if you think you can.

He continued in his rage until Athena knocked him out with a stone and, when he came to, he was overwhelmed with grief at what he had done. He would have killed himself but his cousin Theseus convinced him that would be cowardly and that he must find a way to atone for his sins. Hercules consulted the Oracle at Delphi who told him he must attach himself to his cousin Eurystheus, King of Tiryns and Mycenae, who would devise labors to expiate his sins. These labors originally numbered only ten but later grew to twelve. After Delphi he was no longer known as Alcaeus and took the name Herakles.

Dear Christian, if you find yourself talking to an atheist and the atheist says they don’t believe in god due to a lack of evidence, spouting off memorized arguments WILL NOT turn the atheist into a believer. Speaking from experience, the atheist is most likely going to sigh and turn the topic to something else because ARGUMENTS ARE NOT EVIDENCE. If you have EVIDENCE, present it. If all you have are arguments, admit that you believe because of something other than evidence.

@@jdw393 I'm not sure if you are a JW or just defending as an outsider but either way I would like to ask you to take the biblical scriptures listed in the link in context. The first thing that struck me was the reference to Michael as a spirit creature; Michael is an archangel of God. Created by God. He isn't a spirit creature and if I am wrong in that please point me to the verse in the bible that depicts him as such. Secondly, while we both agree that person's in the bible were given other names like Paul and Jacob, that never applies to Jesus. On the contrary His name was Lord, Son of Man, the Word and Christ. Never once was he given a name other than Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 4 16 says the Lord himself shall resend fro heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first. The key wording is ' with the voice of the archangel', not that He is the archangel. Additionally, with regard to the scripture in Revelation, these are two separate events. The battle with the dragon happened in heaven and he was cast out. Jesus is coming From the heavens with the angels. If we take a look at the verse preceding Revelation 19 v 14, in verse 13 it says And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. We can take this verse and refer back to John 1-14. Lastly, I would ask you to refer to Hebrews 1 v 4 which specifically states that Jesus is above the angels. He is not an angel. Hebrews 1 v 6 says the angels worship Him. Lastly, JW think Jesus and satan are brothers and God had sex to create Jesus. I pray this helps you to seek the truth of Jesus Christ. The Jesus they worship and the Jesus of the Bible are not the same. God bless you.

In sharing our faith to muslim brothers: I would simply say this Jesus death was not clearly given in Quran (Surah An Nisa 157). It simply says that Allah MADE IT LOOK LIKE Jesus died (when He did not).. Made it look like equals to falsification/lying. If it is true, then Allah FALSIFIED Jesus death or intervened in Jesus' trial to create a "fake death" importantly after the verdict on Jesus was made. God in His nature, CANNOT falsify, CANNOT deceive... No need for God to falsify or deceive anyone, anybody.... God must be honest even before Satan.... He always speaks straight and act righteous. But if we look at Quran either Allah created a falsified death (which is ungodly) or created a duplicate death (death of Jesus look alike) or the truth is that Christ did die on the cross and Quran is hiding the truth.... If Allah wanted to protect Jesus, his prophet, he should protected him before the verdict was given..... Very simple.... Additionally, I see that there is sense of urgency, hesitation, perspiration, fear going on with the statement.... Anybody can see and understand.....

@@conordelaney76 Whi Braen is referring to one of God's many attributes. From what it appears, it looks like you may be taking God's attribute of love and misapplying it to other situations where other attributes of God would apply. For example, God says that he has no pleasure in the death of the wicked. In another example, after he judges the people for their sins, God mourns over them in the Bible, showing that it is necessary to deal with sin, though God is not happy when the wicked perish. Death or separation from God is not the purpose for man being created, it is the opposite, which is life and nearness to him. We also see Jesus death on the cross for the sins of the world, showing that death is necessary for sins, but that God still loves us and wants us to be reconciled to him and live. Jesus shows the bridge between the Holiness of God, the judgment of God, and the love of God. Sometimes atheists misapply the attributes of God. Some misapplications may be unintentional, but I believe some are intentional. I would like to give the benefit of the doubt. Aside from the issues of people who perish, though that is not God's will, there's a scripture that talks about two believers who are disputing among each other and suing each before secular courts, and Paul asks an interesting question, why not rather suffer yourself to be defrauded or to be done wrong (so that one can avoid engaging in sin to fight a brother, or to give a poor witness before the ungodly)? The Bible says be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. This does not mean it's God's will for a person to suffer wrong, just like it is not God's will for a servant to be mistreated by a mean ruler, but that the righteousness of the servant would be a testimony, that a person maintains integrity as a good man in the face of oppression. Finally, biblically speaking, there are two sides to the coin of morality. There is a physical or natural side, and there is a supernatural side. We only take one side into account, but God takes both sides into account. This is why we can relate to Commandments like "honor your father and mother", or "do not steal", or "do not commit adultery", but we do not relate to other commitments like "do not take the Lord's name in vain" or "honor the Sabbath". Biblically speaking, sins are not just actions that we do wrong, they have actual substance to them and are able to spread and affect/infect other things. Some things that were cursed in the Bible had to be broken or burned or destroyed simply because it was cursed or had some affiliation with demonic entities. If one is going to assess the morality of the Bible, one must understand the plane by which evil arises, including both natural and spiritually, covenant, and other relevant or legal aspects. One ought to study the Bible to gain understanding of what God's perspective would be.

@@Bi0Dr01d Which God are you referring to? How can you view my last comment as a misapplication? I provided examples of extremely immoral teachings, from a man made text. Why do you cherry-pick certain verses of the bible to be true, and not use them all? You claim there is a supernatural. Can you prove this claim? You mention the commandments. Do you believe that until Moses and his followers went up Mount Sinai and were issued the commandments by God we had know understanding of right from wrong. So you believe that Moses and his followers loved stealing and committing adultery before this point, but then thought 'Oh, this must be bad, because God says so'? You mention studying the bible to understand God. Should we equally study the Quran, the Torah (insert one of the thousands of other religions texts here) to study God? Why makes this one specific strand of religion and this God true relative to the thousands of other Gods and religions created throughout history?

@@conordelaney76 brother, I see you're in argument mode. Neither Whi Braen nor I are here to have some argument. I think you should approach this with a different attitude. anyway, I would like to say that it would seem it is more so the unbeliever who cherry-picks the scripture rather than the believer. If we are NOT to cherry-pick the scripture, then we must acknowledge other scriptures of the Bible that God is not pleased with the death of the wicked, that God is good, that death is God's enemy, as the scripture says. Therefore, we would have to accept verses like these and use these verses to interpret other texts by. Therefore, when we see a difficult passage, we would say that if these other verses are true, more things must be going on then that which it appears to be on the surface. The unbeliever, who may want to make God seem immoral, will ignore these verses, possibly so he can drive a conclusion to gain a justification to remain separate from him. He would be the one cherry picking the scripture. the purpose of me entering into the conversation was just to suggest that a person should read the Bible with a different set of eyes and nothing stops a person from doing so except that same person. As I said, I would like to give the benefit of the doubt that's such a person is not doing this intentionally.

@@estuchedepeluche2212 One example would be confidence in a psychological self defense perspective; If you're afraid to be yourself in public in fear of people asking, or bullying, for proofs of your worldview or beliefs, a sound defense can improve your attitude, posture, and body language which would have benefits such as confidence and ability to handle a dicey situation instead of being an easy target and carrying that weight everywhere. It can also serve to further shape your world views, educate your over all perspectives, and dismiss or eliminate any hay makers and sky daddy ideas one may blindly hold. A practical approach to one's spirit and walk can easily translate to a lifestyle and routine of a martial artist. There are flaws and smart ass quips to piggy back off my analogy but like James 4:8, you got to be on the mat and willing to participate. Craig improving on the kalam or Leibniz, improving on Darwin observations with Mendel's work, is all very similar to working the sword fighting out of Judo and evolving a practical self defense strategy from the major breakthroughs of Jigoro Kano, Mitsuyu Maeda, and the Gracie Family of Brazil. If someone has a basic and reasonable belief, or the basic ability to fight, theology, philosophy, develop tools to polish those disciplines and areas. Gentle Jesus is the stumbling block.

However, they believe that Jehovah God, the Father, is the Creator of His Son Jesus (the first born), and Jesus created everything and everyone else. They believe Jesus was before the begining of the world when Jehovah God (Yahweh) created His Son Jesus (Yeshua) whom sits at the right side Throne of God...

Thanks, it’s June 18,2022. I’m still in agreement with the Profession of faith of the Lord Jesus Christ herein these peaceable Q&A testimonies and a gift of the Holy Spirit .You are all so inspiring . I have found that the Hebrew Aramaic Dictionary as instructed in the Preface of Concordance and like of Strongs , Unger’s Bible Dictionary , Scholarly Studies but ultimately from that Holy Spirit sent from above from his Father . This may bless some here : in Psalm 110 A Psalm of David The LORD said unto my Lord ; here the four letters are upper case in most if not all translations of the Holy Scriptures . Now in the Hebrew Aramaic Dictionary ( Strong’s) at the Hebrew Sacred four letter name for God was and is JHVH , Here is a very small vowel ‘ e’ between the JHVH that came from the I AM that I AM spoke to Moses how the people would know who sent him .So in translation of God as The Invisible El Shaddi who spoke to Jacob as the Lord Almighty ( notice that in every Book of the Word of God the Title is truth that Yahweh Adoni Elohim that the Word that was made flesh and dwelt amongst them , became the faith that overcomes the world . Jesus Christ is the Son of God come in the flesh . Born of the seed of David , declared the Son of God by the Spirit of holiness and the resurrection from the dead.From Hebrew to Greek to the ends of the earth it is still What The Governor Pilate said to The Son of God , Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowers thou not that I have power ( exousia) to crucify thee,and have power to crucify thee ? Book of John Chapter 19,verse 11,Jesus answered , Thou could est have no power ‘ at all’ against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin. Now in verses 19:18-22,And Pilate wrote a Title , and put it on the cross. And the writing was, the pronunciation is precise please look at this JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.verse 20.,This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where JESUS was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in He-brew, ‘ and’ Greek, ‘and’ Latin 21.) Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate , Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate answered , what I have written I have written. In the bond of peace in unity of the Holy Spirit , then someone reading this can read The Gospel According to Saint John Chapter 1:1-28. In verses 10-12 please receive Him please believe this verse of John who was one first son of God and the disciple Jesus called his Apostle .BUT AS MANY AS RECIEVED HIM , to THEM GAVE HE POWER ( define this word exousia) TO BECOME the SONS of GOD, ‘ even’ TO THEM THAT BELIEVE ON HIS NAME: Which were BORN, not of blood , nor of the Will of the flesh,nor of the will of man , but of God. Evidential substantial pistis faith fe’ eemoonno I think in Hebrew .Ok ? Helps in John Chapter three still Jesus speaking . In chapter four 21-24, ( The Holy Spirit lead here instead of me)GOD ‘is’ a SPIRIT.So I know that he said I and the Father One . By faith I recieved the Lord Jesus Christ as my Saviour and asked him to forgive my sins . He did ! He is Alive ! He is Alive ! Hebrews chapter 7 seeing now that he is that eternal high priest he is able to save to the uttermost whomsoever comes to God by Him , seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them who come unto God by Him. Jesus was not sent to destroy mens lives but that through him they might be saved . Love God sent his Only Begotten Son out of love He gave us his only Begotten Son to believe on his name your birth right and that exousia I have excercised here .

​@@roieis Lack of heat does not cause cold. In physics there is no such thing as "coldness". When you touch something that is 200 degree F, due to the materials that your body is made out of, signals are sent to your brain and your brain perceives the temperature as being hot. When you touch something that is 10 degrees F, the materials in your hand send the signals to your brain and your brain perceives the temperature in another way. In reality, there is no such thing as "coldness". You cannot add "coldness" to some object. You can only add more heat, or remove heat from an object. Once you hit absolute zero (0 degrees Kelvin), you cannot remove anymore heat from an object, and you certainly cannot add "coldness" to it. Absolute zero is the end point at which you cannot go any further. Either you have zero heat, or you have some heat. There is no such thing as coldness. Good and evil are not opposites. God is the absolute standard of Goodness. God IS the Good. If you were perfect and did everything right according to God, you would be 100% good. The moment you do something that is not what God wants, you have fallen away from God. This falling away from God is what is called evil. The Kelvin temperature scale goes from 0K to about 10^32 Kelvin. Scientists are not sure if the Plank Temperature is the upper limit or not, but that is what they are thinking at the moment. God is at 100% and pure evil is as 0%. 0K (point which all heat is removed)----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------10^32K (upper limit of heat energy) 0% God (total removal of God is pure evil)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------100% God (total perfect Goodness is God)

I am protesting the comparison between "cold (as humans feel it - I imagine this is what Dr. Graig meant) is a deprivation of heat like evil is a deprivation of what is good." I disagree with the latter part. If you pre-suppose that God exists and that God IS the Good, then everything you wrote would be true. But I don't pre-suppose that God exists.

He said we aren't to lean on our own understanding. By God's grace, we can rest assured that God never makes mistakes and all His judgements are the right ones. God will carry us through the suffering and as we submit to His decisions, He WILL relieve the pain when it's done its work in us (1Peter 5:6-10).

Remember the KJV was a modern translation along with Tyndale and others in their day...some didnt trust modern translations back then either. Thats why i recommend comparing translations. The Gospel and doctrines of faith remain the same in any decent translation. God Bless

It is appointed for us to die once, but after this the judgment. God is going to judge the world in righteousness and the standard he is going to judge by is the moral law. Jesus said that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. God sees your thought life. He requires truth in your inward parts. “Whoever hates his brother is a murderer” 1 John 3:15. Who of us is guiltless? If you’ve lied you are a liar, and all liars have their part in the lake of fire. So how are you going to do on judgement day? We are all going to be guilty and the lake of fire is a reality for all who die in their sins. But God is rich in mercy. Born of a woman, God was manifest in the flesh as Jesus of Nazareth who suffered and died on the cross. God loves us so much that while we were still sinners Christ died painfully for us. He took our punishment so we could be forgiven. Then he rose from the dead and was witnessed by hundreds. You and I broke God’s Law, Jesus paid the fine. What you and I must do is repent and trust alone in Him. Do that today and you’ll pass from death to life! If you want to learn more about what Jesus did for you, read the gospels.

Jehovah’s witnesses actually do believe Jesus is the son of God. Very unlike Muslims. They believe that Jesus Christ is divine and is the only begotten son of God. I think Mr Craig is referring to the fact that JW’s don’t believe that Jesus is actually God Almighty. To be fair, they have extremely strong reasons for believing that the Father (Jehovah) is a separate individual to the Son. For one, Jews believed in one God, Yahweh or Jehovah. They had no idea of a trinity and it never entered into their conception of who God was. He was “one”....not three. The idea of a Father and Son relationship is simple to comprehend. It was supposed to simple. A Human Father is a father and human Son is a son. Our Heavenly Father “begot” his son, or we might say he “brought him forth” as his first creation Colossians 3:15. I very much believe this to be the case. The mysterious doctrine of the Trinity does not appear in the Bible. Neither did the early Apostolic fathers alude to a Trinity. It was “ratified” at the counsel of Nicea under extremely disturbing circumstances for what appear to be political reasons. For more information see www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/g201308/trinity/

God said He Created earth and heaven in 6 days over 6,000 years ago and not more than 5,000 years ago, ok Satan too can quote the Bible and false Pastors. God Created everything for Himself ok. You need this verse 2 Timothy 2;15 to know how to study the Holy Scriptures, Also, you need to be saved before you can understand what God is saying to you. You don’t have the sealed Holy Spirit in you yet. Eph1;13. The Bible is written over 1,500 years and by 40 different men, and some don’t know each other. The author of the Bible is the Lord Jesus Christ. Okay. Men just put pen to paper. 2 Timothy3:15-18 William Tyndale was an English scholar who became a leading figure in the Protestant Reformation in the years leading up to his execution. He is well known as a translator of the Bible into English, influenced by the works of Erasmus of Rotterdam and Martin Luther. I am a Bible believer in the Body of Christ, saved through Faith alone and I am acting as an ambassador for Christ.

That watched all your sins away. I pray that someone (Evolution, Big Bang, theory of everything) will not tamper with your brain that there is another Jesus. Turn you Evolution, Gay/lesbians or take control of Soul. Evolution, big bank (nonsense) and false Pastors are just there to collect or entertain you, beloved be careful.

Adam =Poison =Law = Death in the Lake of Fire Jesus - Antidote =Grace = Eternal Life in the Heaven Evolution=Big Bang= Monkey & Stone= Nothing. =Lake Of Fire. 1 Corinthians 4:14--I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons, I warn you. Evolution (the biggest Bigot in the World today) just like CNN if I may say- is just a load of highly intelligent well-educated individuals coming out with loads of rubbish from their gobs (Just like Plastics pollution in the world today) & May God help them. They told us they are animals, Rock, from nothing and they're going to die going back to nothing -May God help them To all the Governments in the western world today, evolution needs to be cleaned up just like the Pollution of plastic killing our animals in the ocean and river. God told us in-- Romans 16:17--Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. DR. Kent, avoid them. Hell, and Heaven is real. Evolution will never teach Moral. I think evolution you should be thought in the Zoo. The way of a fool is right in his own eyes but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise. Proverbs 21:2-Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts. Evolution is a mess and needs to be CLEANED-UP NOW.

There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. 1 Corinthians 15:38-40---Authorized (King James) Version Evolution, Big Bang, and theory of everything will be - ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

JWs are following a satanic cult then, if they deny Jesus' Deity. *Jesus is God Almighty!* John 1:1-3 -- "In the beginning was the Word (Jesus), and the Word (Jesus) was with God, and the Word (Jesus) was God. The same was in the beginning with God. *All things* were *made **_by_** Him;* and *without Him was **_not any thing_** made* that was made." Angels worship Jesus, therefore Jesus _must_ be God Almighty. One can only worship God Almighty. The 3 wise men *worshiped* Jesus when He was born: Matthew 2:11 -- "And when they were come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and *worshiped Him:* and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh." Jesus *did not* rebuke Thomas when Thomas called Jesus LORD and GOD... John 20:28-29 -- "And Thomas answered and said unto Him, *"My LORD and my GOD."* _Jesus saith unto him,_ *"Thomas, because thou hast seen Me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed."* Jesus is God Almighty. Matthew 14:33 -- "Then they that were in the ship came and *worshiped Him,* saying, Of a truth Thou art the *Son of God."* Jesus did not rebuke them for *worshiping* Him! One can only worship God Almighty! Jesus came humbly and did not speak plainly to most people when here because He had a mission to complete. He *did* hint at His Divinity a few times, but you have to look for it and be open to accepting the truth! Look at John 8:56-59 -- "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day: and he saw it, and was glad." Then said the Jews unto him, "Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?" Jesus said unto them, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, before Abraham was, *_I AM."_* Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid Himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by." The Jews picked up stones to cast at Jesus because Jesus was clearly proclaiming to be the *_I AM_* of the Old Testament scriptures, the One GOD Who spoke to Moses and said "I AM that I AM." They wanted to stone Jesus because they thought Him to be committing blasphemy for claiming to be GOD Almighty. - Acts 7:59 -- "And they stoned Stephen, *calling upon **_God,_* and saying, *_Lord Jesus,_* receive my spirit." Stephen knew Jesus is God. Micah 5:2 -- "But thou, *Bethlehem* Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall *He* come forth unto me that is to be *Ruler in Israel; Whose goings forth have been **_from of old,_** from EVERLASTING."* Jesus was born in *Bethlehem!* Isaiah 7:14 -- "Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a _virgin shall conceive,_ and bear a *_Son,_* and shall call His name _Immanuel."_ Jesus was born from a virgin! Immanuel means *GOD with us* Read the prophecy of Jesus' coming in *Isaiah 9:6* -- "For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, *The Mighty GOD,* The *Everlasting Father,* The Prince of Peace." Matthew 1:22-23 -- Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the LORD by the prophet, saying: "Behold, *a virgin shall be with Child, and shall bring forth a Son,* and they shall call His Name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, *God with us."* - Isaiah 44:6 -- *"Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; **_I AM the First, and I AM the Last; and beside Me there is no God."_* Isaiah 48:12 -- *"Hearken unto Me, O Jacob and Israel, My called; I AM He; I AM the First, I also AM the Last."* *Jesus* says in: Revelation 1:8 -- *"I AM Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the ALMIGHTY."* Revelation 21:6 *"It is done. I AM Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. ..."* Jesus says again in Revelation 22:13 -- *_" I AM Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last."_* Many people quote the other verses where Jesus is leading people to not realize His Divinity, but those people do not understand that Jesus spoke that way to most back then because Jesus came to humble Himself and die for us. There are exceptions where Jesus revealed His Divinity, but it had to be for good reason (to provoke pharisees, especially). This was all coordinated. Paul says it clearly in Philippians 2:5-11 -- "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him _the form of a servant,_ and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, *He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death,* even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name which is above every name: That at the Name of JESUS _every knee should bow,_ of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is LORD, to the glory of God the Father." 1 Timothy 3:16 -- "And without controversy _great is the mystery_ of godliness: *God was manifest in the flesh,* justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." *Jesus is God Almighty!* Revelation 21:3-7 -- "And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the *tabernacle of God is with men,* and *He* will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and *God Himself shall be with them,* and be *their God.* And *God* shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And *He that sat upon the throne* said, Behold, *I* make all things new. And *He* said unto me, Write: for these Words are True and Faithful. And *He* said unto me, *It is done. I AM Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End.* I Will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of Life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and *I Will be his GOD,* and he shall be My son." ^ What you see above ^ is *JESUS CHRIST* - The ALPHA and OMEGA (Revelation 1:8 ; Revelation 1:11 ; Revelation 22:13 ; Isaiah 41:4 ; Isaiah 44:6 ; Isaiah 48:12) - speaking and He is saying that He Will be their *GOD.* *Yes, Jesus is God Almighty! :)*

What they don't believe however is that 'Jesus is God', which is preached by many Christian denominations but is not supported by the bible. ( Literally on minute of research can confirm the information in my comment.)

@@anthonyc4rodrigues548 Jesus's divinity is supported by the Bible. Now you should correct your thinking in light of that.

@@christopherlees1134 ok sir... not sure what ur trying to say here but the question was "is Jesus the son of God?"... According to the Bible; yes he is. Jews don't agree with this neither do Muslims but Jehovah's Witnesses do. Mr. WL Craig said that Jehovah Witnesses don't believe that Jesus is the son of God which is false information.

5:32 so we can memorize it by memorizing B.E.F.O.J which stands for The things God is the best explanation for which is: Beginning (of the universe) Experiences (of God) Fine (tuning for intelligent life) Objective (moral values) Jesus (of Nazareth)

Matthew, Mark, Luke and John is all the historical evidence we need for Gods existence. Jesus, God in the flesh walked among men and taught who God was.
