Ray Comfort: Proof of God’s Existence & Why Atheists Run From God | Eric Metaxas on TBN 

Ray is the reason why I became Christian 🙏 but all the glory belongs to God ❤️‍🔥

I love watching Ray, especially when you can see a light turns on in someones eyes when he's conversing with them. He brings SO many people to the Lord. Praise Jesus! And Bless Ray Comfort

Ray Comfort is one of the most humble preacher I know. All proceeds of his books go to ministry to spread the Gospel. He could have lived a rich lifestyle and owned private jets like some pastors do BUT he chose a life of simplicity. I believe Ray Comfort is a good example of a true follower of Christ. Life is not about what he desires for himself but to put others first and reach out to save more people. He works hard as a Pastor not to amass wealth but to gain a great harvest for Jesus’ Kingdom. ❤️ Respect to you Pastor Ray Comfort.🙏😊

This is just wonderful......We must hate sin.....Fear GOD......live HOLY.❤

Always a blessing from you brother Metaxas on strengthening our faith in the midst of relentless evil. I thank you for bringing people of strong faith so we can live by the example of Christ like Mr. Comfort till our Lord Jesus Christ calls us all home. God bless you, your ministry, and family!

Ray, you are only several years older than I am but you are a father figure to me. You've made God and his son Jesus Christ real to me. You've guided me to make changes in my heart and soul and I so much appreciate that. I now need to share this good news with my loved ones, thank you.

“I was born twice” I love that!

So many years ago I read David Wilkerson's book, the cross and the switchblade. I also read Nicky Cruz's book, run baby run. They completely changed my perception of God. It showed me that God is truly real.

Ray's message never changes.

Eric, I am impressed with the high quality Christian guests you have on your show! I love you and Ray Comfort, my dear brothers. Happy to know you respect David Wilkerson like I do.

Thank u Ray for everything you do for our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ

I came out of an apostate church and was born again. I agree, that being a Christian is both a wonderful comfort and at the same time the most challenging life. I am in love with the Lord, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I am so enjoying, and being nourished by, this exchange between two believers speaking the TRUTH. I know that through The Word and continuous prayer The Lord is holding me in the palm of His hands and in His grace He upholds me in the face of much opposition. Welcome to England. God bless you. This coronation needs concentration on the blessed nature of this event. May it not be obliterated by secular celebration. May the joy of the Lord shine through, out above all. I love your optimism and wonderful initiative! May God guide Charles. Very good point Eric!!!You are right on the point you make. God bless you both.

God is everything! To turn away from Him is like taking away your oxygen. We need Him, each and every one of us, but sadly many don't realise this. God bless you both. Thank you.

Thanks for having Ray on, he’s one of my favorite biblical teachers that I watch online 🙌🏻 and I love your show Eric!

Learned so much from Ray in how to evangelize

God bless Ray and Eric, glad to see they’re family.

Ray was the means God used to shake me from my delusion. Bless him.

So much truth in this conversation! Thank you so much ❤

Ray, I learn so much with your films and videos on RU-vid. You’ve done so much work for the kingdom of God… your prize in heaven will be great! Greetings from Brazil!

Thank you Eric. Wonderful interview with Ray Comfort : he is humble and clear and kind. I'm constantly challenged by his obedience to the Lord Jesus. He's a gifted evangelist and an inspiration. Thank you for the guests you invite and the value of each conversation. Thank you for the insights into persecution- what you say of the remnant is taking shape. I have been pondering Matt 25:31 in this connection. Sin and the evidences of fruit, sound theology - the fear of God - essential truth.

God bless you Ray, and you too Eric! Love the no-nonsense Evangelism. Got my tracts on order - prayers to the LORD that many are reached.

Thank you so much for this interview. I have always respected Ray Comfort for his insatiable desire to spread the gospel! I am always intrigued by his ability to present the gospel with such logical kindness as he speaks with strangers. May God bless him and his kind in this uncertain world, which needs Jesus Christ now! Time is ticking away!!

What a Ray of light: What Comfort

Excellent interview!!! Was just having this conversation with a friend, that there is fruit from your relationship with Christ!

Eric continually notes that Faith is based on ACTION...not just words. In many ways, this was what I learned as a Catholic. This obligation is engrained in catholics in childhood.

Great Interview Eric and Ray!

Awesome! So, now I know "which side" Eric Metaxas is on. Okay, before ANYONE yells at me, this is probably only my 3rd, maybe 4th, video with Eric Metaxas IN it, not necessarily all from this channel! I really appreciated the interview, and the bit about David Wilkerson who I knew about as a teenager. We went to see him once in Sacramento, CA. Brave man. Kind of like Ray Comfort! But Eric said that early on. Anyway, great interview!

Thank you, brothers! Yes, it is irrational to be an atheist. I've never heard the train on track analogy. I love it.

Thanks, Eric, for having Ray Comfort on. Btw, I don’t know whether you still attend TSC, but Pastor Tim Dilena preached an excellent message last Sunday, March 19th, on Discipleship, and made sure he pointed out that discipleship is not legalism. He has a wonderful series of messages lined up for this year teaching basic doctrines for a Christian worldview. The messages thus far have been amazing, and, I’m sure, will continue to be so, because they are obviously, so obviously, inspired by the Holy Spirit.

On time i heard from a psychologist....the most atheist have a father son problem... We have to have gods love in our hearts....and start to pray....start to praise...start to worship with the heart of a child

I am Safe and Free Love 💕 and Peace 😇 Please Bless EveryOne Thank You 🙏 Jesus

I know that brother Ray says the same thing over and over and I praise God every time I hear it! It never gets old and instead it grows sweeter. He has the way of explaining the most challenging of concepts in the simplest of ways that I can understand and pass along. I’ve heard your name Eric but I was afraid you weren’t sincere. This interview seals it that if you agree with Ray then I can safely subscribe to your channel.

May God bless you Ray!

Great show

So thankful to finally know who Ray Comfort is

I love Carter Conlon, he's very good Minister and I love listening to him you can tell he loves Lord. ♥️♥️♥️

Yes. Amen!

I and my husband were saved through his videos. He’s so right. I was terrified of death under a false conversion knowing in the back of my mind it wasn’t real. I knew God existed and knew I’d have to face him. It wasn’t until watching his videos that I saw the depth of sin God knew about me when Jesus died for me. He knew my secret thoughts and intentions. 🎉❤❤❤❤

there is no gift. get equipped/prepare like a runner prepares. all are called to share the gospel to all nations and not to leave out hell and death. and ask the LORD to give you the love of people like HE and JESUS have. thank you guys.❤

I always use Ray Comfort's way of sharing the Gospel.. God bless this man and this show. Amen!

Yes no compromise is the only way!! Most of us learned that the hard way 🙏🙏🙏

A very intellegent man. God bless him.

Great interview! A couple small edits would be great taking out the interruptions.

Truth

Praise Yeshua/Jesus: the most loved and accepted, denied, and rejected person in human history.

❤ from India. I like ray

Thinking about a false conversion experience always terrifies me because I'm never sure. Well, I am sometimes, but then there are those other times... Fruit. How much fruit? What is fruit? Is repentance fruit? How do I know if my turning from sin was me or of God? What about the other fruits, what if i don't have any of those because I'm home bound and can't experience things like that in reality? I don't have any of those fruits of the spirit that I know of but I can't really feel anything but sorrow and grief. I thank God and praise Him, but I don't feel it in my heart because those emotions are closed to me.

Has anyone ever thought about everyone who met Jesus in person. They literally talked to the creator of all creation!

Jesus, Scholar of Scholars, Rabbi Extraordinaire clearly stated we can be delivered from our old nature and be born again.

Ray mentioned something VERY important.... People have no fear of God anymore.... I have Christian friends in more charismatic churches and I see this with them.... I've always feared God, still do.... Everything you guys spoke of is true.... I know SO many people who SAY they Christian, but there is NO fruit in their lives...😢 Thanks for a great video 🕊️🙏🏻🇿🇦

Saved by grace amen! Brother Metaxas, please have Dr. Tours on your show and he shares the similar testimony like Mr. Comfort.

Well said.." sin and death are bedfellows."

🙏🙏🙏

Ray Comfort has been a key voice in exposing false conversions. People say that salvation is based on either what you believe, a prayer you say or your actions. Which is correct? Are all true or is it something else. Jesus said in John 3 that salvation is what you are that counts. He said that you must be born again which means that you must be born of the Spirit. John 3:3-8. Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

I have a question that I have yet to hear addressed. While we should endeavor to live a life that pleases God (what some call holiness) out of love and gratefulness to Him for His extravagant love and sacrifice, there should also be a recognition that our "holiness" is far from the Holiness of our Heavenly King and Lord. As we endeavor to adhere to external holiness, we need to remember that we cannot achieve complete holiness from the inside out in all of our motives, attitudes, love for God and others, etc. because we still fall far short -- thus we are being saved and always in need of a Saviour. Shouldn't this be kept in our awareness as we communicate the need for salvation to others?

If you meet Jesus, you will never be the same again. He is still alive!

(Watches the first few minutes) Me: This Ray Comfort guy seems like a nice person. (Ray Comfort: "The Atheist believes the scientific impossibility that nothing created everything") Me: This guy is one of the nicest people I have seen to blatantly strawman Atheists.

Love Ray Comfort and David Wilkerson! I love Wilkerson's book The Cross And The Switchblade. It is so good! Praise God for the method Ray Comfort uses to share the gospel! Love Ray's sense of humor and glad he said he was "born twice". It is so true! People need to be born twice. Jesus is Lord, maranatha! We must all be ready for the rapture, it is any day now! Jesus will snatch us away. I am ex-LGBT, and I know that I would go to hell if I continued in it. I also know that my divorced and remarried parents will die and go to hell if they don't repent and leave the adultery. For now, my Mom is a believer who goes to church and thinks that she and my Dad are going in the rapture. Her pastor is also divorced and remarried. It's a big lie from the devil that has MANY deceived. What does the Bible say? Loving Jesus means loving His Word. BUT from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Mark 10:6‭-‬12 KJV And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery. Luke 16:14‭-‬18 KJV Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. Romans 7:1‭-‬3 KJV And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: but and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 7:10‭-‬11‭, ‬39 KJV “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭6‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭KJV‬‬ This is honestly what the Bible says. The road is definitely narrow. If people want to repent from this, they have got to leave the adulterous relationship altogether and get that divorce to get out of it. Hoping people will get saved now, before it’s too late! Maranatha!‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

I've heard ...if u didn't like the way u were born Get born again❤❤❤

Speaking as a born-again Christian, and a deeply committed one: God is not provable, and He ordained it so. God's methodology is that He can only be discerned by the Fruit of the Spirit of Faith; He is only "spritually discerned." Meditating upon John 2:23-25 may give those able to be spiritually discerning, a main reason as to why. Proverbs 6:16-17a is another "clue." "For so it seemed good in [His] Sight."

Thank you very much Erick!!! From México City!!!!

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️♥️♥️🙋‍♀️

How about a story about my homeless 70 year old friend Sara who has done ministry many years and now needs real physical miracles and real people to help create miracles in her life. The wealthy pastor's have turned her away forgetting James 2:16 How can they keep taking live as millionaires and billionaires but not give to the poor? Please consider helping my friend Sara

Agree…agree…agree

Awesome conversation, but Eric… you’ve gotta get rid of these abrupt breaks somehow (or give a warning so the person talking can finish their thought).

Psalms 19:7

You need better advance warning for your breaks for your guest…I was repeatedly disappointed that you immediately cut Ray off in mid [great] sentence. He wasn’t rambling; he was direct and concise. And yet I was not only disappointed, but effectively offended on Ray’s behalf for the ride immediate cut. But that criticism aside, I’m glad you interviewed him as he makes really good, powerful, Godly points.

The use and meaning of the word 'me', is an extension and reference to that 'of' the Lord - and not pertaining in that to the Lord Himself

🙏✝️🇺🇲

Ray I'm confused about something... When you say "God is paying us in death for our sins", and then those sins are laid on Jesus when one comes to faith (ie repentance and belief) - why is it that the believer will still die? (ie still receive the wages) Are we still receiving wages for something that has been fully absolved by Christ?

Has anyone ever met a happy, joyful atheist? I love your ministry, Ray. Living in SoCal we are always around non-believers and they are invariably angry at God.

Also King Charles wants to be ‘defender of faiths’ plural!

Nothing created everything my thought for the day

I think there could be another realm, but, with my highest certainty, I don't think anyone or belief system on earth has completely nailed it. It seems presumptuous to think humans have.

We live by faith, it is not His job prove anything to any human. He is Jhwh.

I enjoyed this video but I have a question for Ray comfort. If he leaves such a holy life and believes he is a Christian why does he Express so much animosity against Catholicism? Catholics carried the word of Jesus for fifteen hundred years until the Advent of Protestant religions. Is not sharing the word of Jesus to the world the way to God!

A man of integrity a man of God 👍🙏👍❤❤❤

But Charles is not a protector of Christianity given his actions - I doubt that he is Christian. He is not his mother, Queen Elizabeth.

A slight correction ……. At a coronation, the king or queen is crowned, not coronated. King Charles will be crowned at his coronation. As in the old hymn, “crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon the throne!” It doesn’t say, “coronate him with many crowns.” Other than that this is a really good interview. Thanks.

Ray, you do good work! You look like a koala bear though. Nothing wrong with koalas!

BTW, I watched the whole video for "The Proof of God's Existence," yet it was never shown or spoken about. Lousy click bait!

Missed pastor David Wilkerson 😢

Eric, why do you bother to bring on a guest when you do most of the talking?

Charles is not Christian, look at his speeches and involvement in Environment issues and the 2030 movement

I tried to convince my husband about God building the rivers because we were River Rats floating Rivers all the time. He wasn't buying it but I think it's because he didn't want to get right with Lord Jesus

11:27 My man just compared a hot topic shirt against Christianity to the holocaust

I agree with Ray. Except Sanctification is a process . Am I better then I was in the past absolutely. Do I live perfectly absolutely not. I struggle in this life and I will till I die. The only one that seems to get that accurate balance of that is John macauther, Jeff Durbin etc. although I love Ray comfort. I’ll never be Holy enough. I’m at war with sin daily. The fact that I’m at war with it is proof I’m born again!!

WE all need now to listen the Holy spirit...ehat god is telling and not Satan is telling.......the spirit of truth I Jesus NAME.... Wisdom without GODS love is nothing......

Whaaat… the English reformation was an outgrowth of Henry VII sin … it’s anti catholic because of his sinfulness. I’m shocked

Excellent...but so disappointed with those breaks ...Ray had so much more to say...then abruptly cut off....darn!! I know it's part of paying the bills.... bummer!

No big for I know of a first century historian that has written over 60,000 Pages already and he has knowledge to wright over 100,000 Pages of Biblical scriptures

I read that Charles said he will not say he is a defender of the faith. So interesting. I also heard a prophecy from a usually reliable source that Charles will not be coronated but his inquiries will be revealed to all.

In junior high, I read and loved "Cross and the Switchblade." However, I lived without faith and without God...quite disinterested in religion...until my 40's. When He answered my question, I went out and bought a Bible, read voraciously, prayed continually, and did a constant self-examination with an intent to follow, to the best of my ability, the teaching of Christ. It took years for me to learn about the Protestant/Catholic divide. I was shocked that so many Protestants claimed works didn't matter. I ignored them. I couldn't believe they had actually read the words of Christ in the Gospels. In pro-life work, I encountered many Catholics. Eventually, as I understood the Catholic Catechism, I heard, for the first time in my Christian life, a view corresponding with Christ's teachings. We will never be perfect. Thus...confession, repentence, and reparation. God loves us. And we show our faith and love of God by what we do. Thank you for your reinforcement of this truth.

Ray thinks Charles is a Christian...he is a great actor is what he is.

The Christian walk is like a marathon that takes you on a journey that God's finish line. Run the race and don't look back. Read daily the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter systemically to grow in the grace and knowledge of our LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. Watch JESUS REVOLUTION 🎥🎭🍿🍫🥤😋💦

The reason I like the word of God is that it never contradicts. What the interviewee said about the issue of those the true followers of Jesus and those are corrupted is clearly mentioned the below versus of the Quran. Please don't be panic when you see the Quran. I don't blame you if you do that because many who claim to follow it, don't follow it properly. This versus is among other verses praised those who followed Jesus and indicated how merciful they are but Many who try to interpret the Quran claim that "these are in the past and those who lived with Jesus!! Which is not true at all because if that is for the past then why Islam makes a pillar of belief to believe in the books of God. Such as Thorah, Gospel and others...? This is the versus: "Then We sent following their footsteps Our messengers and followed [them] with Jesus, the son of Mary, and gave him the Gospel. And We placed in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy and monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them except [that they did so] seeking the approval of Allah. But they did not observe it with due observance. So We gave the ones who believed among them their reward, but many of them are defiantly disobedient" Surah al-hadid - versus 27.

Eric - I'm trying to remember if we met at TSC? I was there from 87 - 97 but left for Romania in 90. You look familiar.

The concept of “nothing” cannot have the ability to act, otherwise it would exist as a “potential act” and be one of many things that exist. If the universe came from “nothing” then this nothing would have needed to have had the ability to become the universe. But the concept “nothing” as we previously explained, cannot have the ability to act, therefore, the universe could not have come from nothing on its own. Since there are things that do exist, then “something” must have always existed, because as we just proved, things cannot come from “nothing” on their own. If time had ever proceeded at an infinite rate, which is like fast forwarding through a motion picture, we would not be here today because all events would have already occurred in a single instant. Therefore, time has always progressed at a finite rate and any mathematician can prove that time could never have progressed over an infinite time interval. The proof goes like this, pick any number no matter how great. You can always add one to it and thereby make it greater in value, therefore you can never reach infinity. And you cannot say that all we need to do is to wait an infinite amount of time and then we would reach infinity, because then you are assuming that you can wait an infinite amount of time. However, this is what you were trying to prove and so that is not proof at all. You cannot assume to be true, that which you are trying to prove to be true otherwise you can prove anything to be true, even that which is false. Therefore, time could not have started an “infinite” time ago and therefore had a beginning a finite time ago. Since “something” always existed as we previously proved, it had to have existed before time started. Since space and time are one entity called the space-time continuum as Einstein pointed out, then this “something” had to have existed before space and time existed and therefore caused space and time. Since this “something” existed outside of space and time it cannot be made up of material things, because material things can only exist in space. And this “something” could not be just chaos which has no order, because as we previously proved, something cannot come from nothing on its own, hence order cannot come from pure disorder. Therefore, this “something” had to have had the ability to cause order, space-time, material things, beauty, life, everything in our universe, including our universe and natural laws and rules. Since we call ourselves beings, then we should at least call this “something” a Being, who we call God. Since only God always existed, and the universe is not made of God as we just proved, then God must have created the universe out of “nothing”. Since “nothing” does not even exist, then God must have infinite Power in order to have created the universe from “nothing”. Since all people desire happiness, then God must have created us to be happy out of love for us. Naturally, all creatures should love their Creator. For us to love God from our heart, God had to create in us a free-will, because no person can be forced to love, otherwise this would not be true love from their heart. With our free-will, we can choose to do good or bad to our neighbor and this is why there is sin in the world, because some people have chosen to hate God and their neighbor and are only interested in pleasing themselves. God did not create evil, nor does He desire evil, but he does allow sin to happen because He had to form us with a free-will, in order for us to love Him and others from our heart.

Will we sin in heaven? Won't we be the same people? Broken, flawed, sinners....

Lol like totally 🤣
