2:20 "Why do I believe? And what I realized was that I hadn't been holding onto a conservative or a controversial view of the Bible; the Bible had been holding onto me!" 🙌 😊 ✝️
The Charles W. Colson quote about watergate is one of my favorite arguments. Why do I believe? Because God has shown me mercy. But still, we can see proof all around us.
Love reading the Bible now! After listening to many different Bible teachers I’m coming to a logical understanding about the differences in Old & New Testament covenants: Kingdom of heaven for believers(bride of Christ), & promised land to His people, Israel, on earth! 2 different Dispensations or prescriptions for 2 different peoples: (Jews- Gentiles)/ times/situations.
Romans 5:1-11 (Peace😊❤ and Joy😊❤ ) "5 Therefore😊❤ since we have justified😊❤ through faith(or trust in Jesus😊❤) , we 😊❤ 😊❤ 😊❤😊❤ 😊❤ 😊❤ 😊❤ have peace(😊❤) with God(😊100%❤)( how? ) through( by) our Lord Jesus Christ(Jesus😊1st❤), 2 through whom we have gained access by faith(trust in Jesus(😊1st❤) in Christ too) ) into his grace(😊❤) in which we(😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤) stand😊❤. We rejoice(😊❤)in the hope( 😊❤ or Jesus😊1st❤) of the glory of God(😊100%❤). 3 Not only so, we (😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤) also in our sufferings(😊❤),because we (😊❤) know that suffering😊❤ produces😊❤ perseverance😊❤, perseverance 😊❤, character😊❤; and Character😊❤, hope😊❤. 5 And hope😊❤ does not disappoint us , because God (😊100%❤) has poured out his love❤ into our hearts❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ by the Holy Spirit( 😊❤ our helper in Christ), whom he has given us. 6 You see, at just the right😊❤ time😊❤ when we were still powerless, Christ(Jesus😊1st❤) died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God(😊100%❤) demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners Christ(Jesus😊1st❤ )died for us. 9 Since we have now been justified 😊❤ ( how? ) by his( Jesus' ) blood😊❤, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! 10 For if, we were God's enemies, we were reconciled😊❤to him through the death of his( Jesus') life! 11 Not only is this so, but we 😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤ also rejoice😊❤ in God(😊100%❤) through our Lord Jesus Christ(Jesus😊1st❤), through whom we have now received😊❤ reconcilation😊❤."( Romans 5:1-11 Zondervan NIV Study Bible. Amen to Romans 5:1-11). May Jesus grant you his peace(John 14:27😊❤) too and God's peace( Philippians 4:7,9 ) and Romans 5:1-11. In Jesus'name, i pray(John 14:6😊❤ and Philippians 4:4😊-7😊❤). Amen.
Genesis 36:6-14 "6 Then Esau took wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his livestock, all his beasts, and all his property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan. He went into a land away from his brother Jacob. 7 For their possession were too great for them to dwell together. The land of their sojournings could not support them because of their livestocks. 8 So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir.( Esau is Edom.) 9 These are the generation of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir. 10 These are the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz the son of Adah of the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Basemath of the wife of Esau. 11 The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12 ( Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz, Esau's son; she bore Amalek to Eliphaz.)

Why not? Because it's God's word❤ in Christ as along as from Bible fromn Genesis 1:1❤😊 to Revelations 22:21😊❤ in Christ. Again Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior in Christ said in the Bible. Matthew 23:29-36 "29 " Woe to you, Scribe and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monument of the righteous, 30 saying, " If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' 31 Thus you witness against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers. 33 You serpent, you brood of vipers, how are you to escape being sentenced to hell? 34 Therefore I send you prophets and wise men :) and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town, 35 so that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel ( he offer the better portion to God) to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar."( ESV Study Bible) ( This teach us in Christ, do not kill in the sanctuary and in the altar too in Christ.

The Lord Jesus preached the word with authority. Then often left his hearers with his common refrain, "if any man have ears to hear let him hear." Hey Josh 🙌
With maybe the exception of Sproul (for complex reasons) almost every serious Christian that I like has ‘weird qualms’ (or say, reservations) about apologetics. Arguments from reason to faith…
It’s because the process of logic and reason isn’t the means that God saves people. No one can reason themselves into heaven, but by hearing the Word. Logic is good, but isn’t what makes someone born again. The things of God are foolish to the intellectuals.
*Soli Deo Gloria?* But... Are you sure you're not giving the glory to yourself? *Calvinist* friend, why did God choose you? You're smart, you know it wasn't a draw. And you also know that God would not send people who are better than you to hell. There is only one option left, and your corrupt heart knows it. How terrible is that you don't mind distorting God's character by making Him seem cruel and ruthless, like Allah or Shiva, just because it makes you feel special, better than others. But do you know that your "god" is unbiblical? God has no favorites (Romans 2:11). God didn't choose you because he saw something special in you. You are not worth more than anyone else. The only reason he did it’s because he knew your response to His call. (Romans 8:29). "...Many are called, but few *chosen.* " (Matthew 20:16) Therefore, let us be *VERY CAREFUL* ,lest while trying to give glory to God, we will be found liars. “ *Because the heart is perverse and deceitful, more than all things.* ” (Jeremiah 17:9).
Yes he's sure he isn't giving the glory to himself. Read the book so that you can correct your latest false accusation. Of course, you won't bother to read it and are too proud to admit your error too.
Dr John Piper, I trust the Bible. I sure don’t trust you. Can we revisit your assertion that life and freedom aren’t as important as being against the man God used to save millions of babies? Sun Tzu said that a wicked ruler will see his nation burned to the ground to rule over the ashes. Sun Tzu must have seen the dystopian future that is being ushered in by the Democrats, at the ultimate behest of pastors like yourself.
Piper is not remotely democrat and he’s spoken about this specifically and publicly rebuked the president. Political idealogy will not keep you on the day of judgement.
@@DylanGalvinMusic He rebuked Biden? When? Do you have a link? He called Trump supporting Christians liars, he called us naive and he called us presumptuous. He said Trump was not effectively prolife when he saved millions. I could be wrong, but in my book that is supporting the Democrats.
@@DylanGalvinMusic. Wrong. He called Trump Christian pro life voters liars, he called us naive and he called us presumptuous. He said Trump was not effectively pro life when he saved millions. In my book that is called helping Biden get elected.
